THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
That's a rather catchy opening song...

Seems the main protagonist Asakusa has some wild imagination. I kinda like the creative perosonalities of the cast introduced so far. Character chemistry is entertaining to watch and I hope they take time to develop the the characters. The main trio got introduced for this anime and some of them are kinda mischievous. I think this anime has a lot of potential.

GOD THE OP IS SO GOOD. The song! The animations! Aaaaah!

What a fun show so far. All three of the VAs are really, really good. Loving those facial expressions too.

Future Boy Conan?

This is so damn charming. Based on the PV I was already expecting that it would be an energetic series and I'm glad that it lives up to the hype.

Striking was also the artwork which was really nice to look at and I love the voice acting, especially Midori's voice is pretty amusing.

And the opening is indeed extremely catchy. Great start overall, looking forward to the rest of this adventure.

Phenomenal start, I think Yuasa is going to have a ton of creative freedom here and I can't wait to see what he produces. He'll always be my #1 director, sasuga. 9/10

Really fun first episode! I'm not crazy about the characters so far but I'm looking forward to seeing more of them. Overlay part was the best bit, I think this show is going to be strongest in the parts about the animation itself.

This was fantastic, full of charm and energy. I love it already.

Holy shit, the nostalgia when I saw all those Conan scenes in the beginning. Damn, makes me nostalgic of life 15 years ago. A different time, a different age.

The characters are lively and the dialogue is full of life. I loved the little adventure we went on just by looking at a background overlay with a concept. Imagination can change everything. :)

This is the kind of show we needed to start a new decade, we haven't had something like this since Sora yori no Tooi Basho. Really looking forward to more now.

Not to be rude to Asakusa but for half of the episode I was wondering why is this guy wearing a girl's uniform and then I realized she is actually a girl.

This looks unique and interesting. Specially that part where they built the dragonfly thing was exciting, even thou it was only their imagination. Looking forward to more.

Only the second seasonal I've seen so far but I feel safe in saying this will probably be my favorite of the season. I love the character designs, animation, and the story so far can't wait for more. 9/10

That was brilliant! i loved everything about it--the inventive animation, the engaging characters and that really catchy OP. plus; Its about aspiring animators (and kanamori who's just in it for the cash--or so it seems, she's probably my favorite but i like all of them) probably going to be in the top 3 this season although its a bit early to judge--9/10 opener.

top kek I actually like the ED better than the OP for this one

as for the show itself not really sure how to fell. Not that big of a fan with the art (then again I never really was with Yuasa shows), characters are ok for now. Not really sure what direction the show is taking but who knows

Same lol, I check for the description to confirm whether she is boy or girl. A girl it is.

Was very impressed with this. Looks great, fun characters, and fun concept. Surprised as this stuff typically isn't my cup of tea as I prefer the darker stuff, but I fell in love with everything here.

This could well be my AOTS. Calling it now.

I loved everything about this episode. Characters, art, energy...such a great combination of factors. Just hoping it keeps doing what it's already doing so well. I hope it gets a decent sized audience...this is clearly a labor of love.

Great first episode, altough I'm not sure where the story is heading, the chemistry between the characters was fun and they each have parts I find interesting.

Visuals and sound are top-tier. Really liked the track that was playing during the rescue part of famous model girl.

I'm loving the animation and character design of this first episode.
I think it could turn out to be one of the best anime of this season.

Edit: Oh, just noticed it's from the same studio that made Ping Pong The Animation and Devilman Crybaby, no wonder I was into the visuals so much

A unique and wacky art style with great animation, nice music, and good voice acting. Overall a great start for a very promising series.

Good first ep. Got a bit of a Nichijou feel with the main cast. I can already tell the OP is gonna be stuck in my head for a while.
Insert a neat little signature with an anime gif or something here.

Whimsical without being too self-indulgent. Hopefully they can keep up this sense of creative passion and wonderment at artistic inspiration without falling into a pattern, or even worse if it loses itself in its own 'animatedness.' (if that makes any sense outside of my own mind). Characters could become annoying if not restrained.

Wait they’re all girls?

That is quite the explorer’s paradise. I’m jealous! Glad they found eachother. His/her concept drawings are great. Really unique anime so far. Hopefully it’ll please wider audiences. The op and ed didn’t really get me though.
