| The cover art was beautiful, but I wasn't expecting the actual anime's art being this good. The characters are likeable so far. I thought this would be more like Psycho Pass, but it's more similar to Double Decker. Although, the art makes it look like this will get dark quite soon. I had only decided to watch this because I'd liked the cover art and I had also thought the guy in its centre looked kind of nice, so I was worried I wouldn't like this anime. So far, I enjoyed it! |
| It's kind of the typical anime lol but that's not a bad thing for me. It was easily digestible and fun. I'm pretty sure the OG detective that the MC met is now the villain of the series, as usual how the tropes play out. He was voiced by Matsuoka Yoshitsugu I recall. EDIT: I'm pretty sure that was him in the last scene after ending credits! Much better than Cop Craft thank god LMAO If you guys want something more serious, check out Babylon from this season! |
| People keep comparing this to Cop Craft and I find that pretty insulting since the art/animation wasn't as terrible as that show was. Show's pretty alright so far and is keeping me entertained enough. Also side note, that sniper man is hot af and I can't wait for all the bara fanarts. ;) |

| Haven't watched much anime like this. It felt very much like Kekkai Sensen, but with less interesting (individual) characters and worldbuilding. I really don't like the logic in this anime. An example being the MC talking to the police through his earplug within a tiny space where no one else noticed. However it has only been one rushed 'gotta get this mc into the group' type of episode so I will give it 2 more episodes to develop into something more interesting |

| Emiya Shirou but a cop |
| Good episode Deserve at least 7 score |
| That was a good episode and the OP is awesome |
 |
| Am I the only one confused by the "supernatural" part? I mean, besides the lady snapping the bullets with a sword and the guy surviving a 100km/h+- fall from a vehicle, I didn't see anything out of the 'natural' part. But I guess that explains the guy with pointing ears. |

| -Introduction was interesting enough. -OP was average (a bit too Hollywood for my taste). -I adore Urban Fantasy settings, so I really hope this show can give off some of the vibes I'm hoping for. -The way the narration was working was pretty cool and the OST accompanying it did a terrific job. >That grenade scene at the bank. See, this "Hollywood" stuff is bothering me. Exaggerated explosions are always annoying. -If in the end, the black-haired guy turns out to be the one that saved the protagonist all those years back, I'm gonna be pissed. -The logic behind finding out whether the protagonist was an accomplice to the criminals or not was kind of weird. It seemed off. He could tell in 5 seconds? Come on now... >"Dying in the line of duty means a two-rank promotion." I'm liking the humor in this anime so far. >He DODGED the bullet. This better be explained later, and it better have a damn good explanation. That was so stupid. One of the worst asspulls I think I've ever come across (if we don't get an explanation for it). I would've even preferred the whole "good thing I hid those magazines in my shirt" crap. >"No justice is worth sacrificing people for!" This guy must not know what war is. >That whole chanting about "Nine" scene. Looks like we've got the creepy cult for the show. This could go a number of ways, and I hope it doesn't choose the cliché Police TV series route. -The whole bullet-cutting-with-katana thing makes me feel a little better about the bullet dodging thing. If multiple characters have unique powers, it won't bother me. Obviously, a normal human wouldn't be able to dodge a bullet, so obviously they'll explain it with some kind of power. This would only bother me if he was the only one with it. It looks like it may end up otherwise. -And so we've got our team of rag-tag cops together. It wasn't bad, to be honest. The CGI was horrific, and there were a few weird moments, but overall, it was an enjoyable first episode. I really enjoyed the progression of solving the mystery of who was the criminal. Still, I'm just giving it a 5 for now. Next episode may change my mind! I'm excited to see what direction this show will take. Like I said, I love Urban Fantasy settings, so I hope this ends up being at least good! Zyukichan said: Haven't watched much anime like this.

I have no idea why it is such a common sight.  |
| A nice opening with most of the main characters briefly introduced. Looks one to keep an eye on this season. Sad how the score is already under 7 so a lot of people who filter by score might not even pick it up. |
| Groundwork's been lain in the first episode, so we should see more development from here on out. It looks like it has good potential, all that's left is to sit back and watch to see where it goes. |
| So this is basicly Cop Craft 2.0 with better art but worst story and intro ripped of from Fate Stay/Night... |
 |
| Not bad, but I'm cautious about those fantasy elements (el es, vampires, etc) because while Coo Craft, a predessesor of this, seemingly had all the right stuff to work well, it just didn't, probably because the elements just didn't click together right, the result being not abyssmal, but still utterly forgetable and mediocre at best. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| Looks promising so far. I hope it gets better. |
| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| This is basically Double Decker! Doug & Kirill but with an attempt at being more serious and dramatic. I like it so far. A lot of police anime this season. |
| I think it is interesting how the first episode had nothing really to do with supernatural related powers when the show seems to be about that. The situation itself was very cliche, underwhelming, and nothing too special (which I guess could be good and bad depending on the context). Overall, the episode was enjoyable, but I do see how the show could turn out to be subpar. I am still interested to see where they take this show, but it kind of gives me BSD vibes...I mean, the op is made by OLDCODEX so :) |

| Well, it seems I found my replacement for last season's "Cop Craft". However, that said, I just hope the squad (or the main duo at least) can have the same enjoyable chemistry both Kei and Tilarna had. Decent start overall, nothing too special but entertaining nevertheless. So far, I really like the artstyle and the plot, though generic, might be promising later on. But of course, all will depend on how the studio will manage the development of both characters and storytelling. |
coreynj said: It frustrates me that people are comparing this to Cop Craft when this is much more comparable to Kekkai Sensen or Bungou Stray Dogs. Seems like anime fandom has memory of goldfish OR seasonal change of audience is this big. |
 |
| I love this type of anime, the story can be really fun and the ost is great. Omg people stop comparing this with cop craft, people didn't watch Kekkai Sensei or Hataka TR? It much more like. Besides the VAs there is nothing like CC. |
| Though buddy cop and just simply cop/detective anime have been around forever, it certainly feels like there's been a huge resurgence lately. Not a trend I dislike at all, so the more the merrier. I agree with a lot of people in this thread that called the first episode kind of dull, unfortunately. Much more interested in the side-cast, especially badass sword lady. |
coreynj said: It frustrates me that people are comparing this to Cop Craft when this is much more comparable to Kekkai Sensen or Bungou Stray Dogs. Dude i totally agree, Cop craft was completely different from this. Its just cause it aired last season and its still on everyones minds (even though it wasnt that good) This seems more laidback then and supernatural detective show... I wonder what genre it will focus on action, supernatural, psychological, etc. |

| There has been a havoc. Everywhere is burning. Bad guys are approaching as they shoot around. Under these situation, a policeman stops by a random middle school boy to have a calm and long conversation about his future plans. Sorry for fans but, I am passing this nonsense. |

| Cop Craft with the main character of Mayonaka no Occult Koumuin doing the same paper (a lost character with the world crumbling around him) and Saeko Busujima as guests. |
 "If there is something that most do not realize and someone can, it does not mean that it does not exist. Just not revealed ..." |
| This is nice. I think I'll continue to watch this |
| This feels very... I don't know whether to call it "overboard" or "overdramatic". Both character and designs feel almost like too much, and I can't tell if it's on purpose or accidental. The MC is naive to a Shirou degree and has some eyes to reflect that, the sketchy/expert detective who seems to not care about anything, and the vampire girl who wears a dress and heels who fights with a sword. I don't know why, but I like the colouring/style. Maybe because it looks sharp? Either way, overall, I'll give it a bit more of a go, but it was fine. Maybe they're luring us into false expectations but go completely different? ('Cause MC-kun took a bullet and didn't friggin die) |
| "You know you've reached peak quality when a doujin is better than the actual source series." (Eg. To LOVE-Ru) Just to list a couple of biases. Likes: A good story, characters, writing, romance, a good plot twist or something that breaks expectations (In a good way), 'backstory' and justice. Dislikes: Bad romance, too much fanservice, the harem genre, yuri, yaoi, and bad writing. |
Kinda meh, aside from vampire cougar |
|
| Hahaha I'm getting a hit tired of hearing kenjiro... Similar feel like double decker and occult... i like investigation plots so why not... |
| New Characters old atmosphere...gives of Cop Craft and Double Decker vibes, it caught my attention i'll continue watching |
| "People who mostly ignore your existence are in no position to assess you." - Ken Kaneki/One Eyed King |
| very interesting episode. the characters seem cool. |
| Interesting start, the world reminds me of cop craft while the team sort of reminds me of Kekkai Sensen I really think Seiji is not a normal human, surviving that shot to the stomache and the flashback to his past, he definitely has some superpower |
