| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Yeah, this is a very unusual series. It's not everyday you get to see a monster like that or rather, a guy being transformed in that form. But yeah, I actually kinda feel bad for Shuuichi since he wasn't prepared to deal with all of this, especially after meeting Kurea Aoki. This is among the strangest anime this Spring season if you ask me. |
 |
| Anime should be like this. The character design is also cool hot, especially the body line. The fast development is stress-free. Finally came a decent show. |
| Out on Ani-One Asia YT Channel. I was slightly reluctant to give this a shot honestly but it turned out to be an interesting watch. Definitely unusual for one, as Stark-san mentioned earlier. Didn't know Touyama Nao could play such a role though, that was an one-opener on another front. I was expecting her character to be this manipulative and suicidal chick, and it seems I couldn't have been more accurate lol. Quite some fan-service thrown in too, why not xD. Got to feel for Kagaya being used by an underclassman like this though. Dat whole scheme to reveal his true colors was really dirty. Looks like the "monster" in him fancies some female smell (?) too, it was odd seeing how it pulled down her panties out of the blue. Nana-chan might've just seen something she can't unsee. About time, I say... Almost little to no hints over the existence of these "monsters" or "collectors" and such but the lore of the mystery so far is kind of intriguing, to be honest. Op gives off a really sinister feeling, much like Mirai Nikki I suppose. Soundtrack sounded really good too and likewise for the Animation, hopefully they’ll be able to retain this quality throughout. Edit: By the way, is it just me or is MAL starting to reject VPN servers now? |

| A prety good adaptation so far, not disappointed at least :D |
 ...whether it's now or ten years from now, if you are going to evolve as a person, generally you need to be broken down first. -Ayanokōji Kiyotaka- |
| For such a ridiculous monster design, I didn't expect it to be mostly serious, though the fanservice is not surprising. Don't really like the main guy nor the girl but it at least has some good animation and I have more interest then I had with Darwin's Game. Hopefully, it lessens the trashiness down a bit and maybe let the charecters throw out jokes or something? |
It really do be like that though. |
| well, it's certainly an interesting start. it was pretty well animated, hopefully, the quality won't drop the characters are fine, i guess. the wimpy boy + sadistic girl duo works like a charm. and having little bits of ecchi content thrown in here and there is a plus, too from what it looks like, they'll be working together in some death game setting collecting coins, huh |
 |
| I'm not sold on the story and the characters just yet, but the visual direction and the animation/drawings were solid and looked well put together. Music was solidly composed too. I won't say this blew me away but it was an effective enough premiere to get me curious about what's going to happen later on. Clair and Kagaya were okay, I need to get to know them better to have proper opinions on them. |
| Boy, instead of climbing over the handrail, I just would've grabbed for the phone xD Now Clair already got herself a monster pet/slave. Well, many questionable decisions in this premiere. Rather good start overall. Ngl, MAL cover gave me death game vibes ala Danganronpa or Darwins Game. But this is rather interesting so far and well directed. Has even some fanservice to keep the attention. Girl that appeared at the end got my approval. Looking forward to the next episode. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Why did he need to punch a hole in the wall when he could've just gone the same way he came in? There's a huge entrance in front of the building, this is retarded lmao. Outside of that tho, it was entertaining. Didn't expect that much animation quality for something like that lol. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| Interesting start with lots of potential and I hope this goes in the right direction since this kind of stuff is right up my alley. The visuals and animation were great and I like Aoki, seems like she'll be an amusing one. Also there were some decent fanservice too. Really looking forward to the upcoming episodes. |
 |
| Something feels a little off, but a good adaption for the most part so far |
| Unusual? Looks pretty generic if you ask me. |
| Another battle royale to collect points/coins. It seems every season has one now. Last season was Darwins Game... I will give 3 eps |
| Interesting start. So we have the main characters introduced. But what's with that guy that came out of that vending machine at the start. That was totally unexpected. Anyways, I'm looking forward to more. |
 |
| I thought it was a good start, but I really hate the main character |
| I didn't know what to expect but ended up loving the first episode. The character design is cool. I'm not a fan of fanservice but as long as it keeps being like this, it's okay. I think I'm gonna like this anime a lot. |
| Know when a show is trying to boast about its animation budget? when the first scene is about turning a ventilator for the sole purpose of animating some sweaty old mans hair. The heroine semms lika a sociopath wich is a bit interesting, as of now this beats the new isekai garbage we got this season and tower of god...Lets see how this will go, protagonist will probably get some character development to stop being a whimp. |
| This doesn't look like it'll have the most amazing story ever, but god damn it certainly looks good. It has some of the most attractive character designs I've seen in a while, and every other aspect of the production is top tier. Even the music stands out. I wasn't expecting this type of quality from Pine Jam of all studios. |
 |
| Was quite better than what I was expected. Given the plot of course. So I'll be sure to keep watching as it goes along. |
| Okay, really good adaptation of the manga so far, I think it can be great |
 |
| So, this fits within funimation's standards? Interesting... |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Pseudo battle royale, good animations but with only 12 episodes and the manga at the 8th volume, it will be the usual, and also censored, promo. Reading the manga is therefore necessary for a full experience. |
| The fanservice is super unnecessary, so I'm not a huge fan of it so far. The animation is good, though. But the story seems like it's gonna be another Mirai Nikki clone of sorts. |
  |
| First episode was actually quite decent, the fanservice did feel a bit much at times but I think it added to the humor of the first episode a little bit, Overall a really good first start for this show, and I hope future episodes can just be as good as the first one!

| The only watchable anime I've found this season so far. Edgy, unusual, but oddly entertaining. Funny to see sensitive puritans complain about the ecchi when it's listed in the genre list, fuck off, lmao. |
| :3 |
| Yea this shit’s fire. Fanservice battle royale ? My ideal anime. I’m an easy man to please I really like Clair, she’s crazy and hot. My ideal type. Basically this season’s shuka. Really good episode to start, hooked me and got me wondering what the origins of the coins are, what gatherers are, who’s Clair, what’s the secret behind Kagaya’s transformation, etc. I hate how MAL allows ratings one episode in, its already at a 6.99, smh. So basically I think this’ll be this season’s D Game. Battle royale with unlikely alliances. Underrated and slept on. Looking forward to more. |
 |
| Oh another one of those plot where Mc finds a sidekick to help in his fight, except here the bitch is in command. Well they didn't pull any punches with the fan service. |

| Well, that was fun. I'm not a fan of how bitchy and manipulative the girl is but at the same time I like her... and she is hot af. Always nice to hear Nao Touyama. Nice fanservice with panties everywhere xD. It looks great visually, the OP is pretty good as well as the ED by Mili. I love Mili. Looking forward to the next episodes. |
| Jeez.. So many bad anime this season :') |

Outside of that tho, it was entertaining. Didn't expect that much animation quality for something like that lol. I'd imagine that the fire was blocking that entrance already, he could move through it because he's a monster but needed to find an alternate escape route so she wouldn't get burned. |
| Ok this was way better then I was even hopping + the animation quality is dope AF! This might be actually a good adaptation (O_o) |
|
| Looks good so far! Don’t screw it up! |
| The op have atleast 3 anime openning references. Mirai nikki op 1 Chaos child Fate zero op 2 Interesting. |
 |
| It's always annoying when trash like this gets a well animated adaptation. |
| It looks good so far but it's hard to tell from the first episode. I'll keep my eye on this one. |
| Great animation, especially the edgy action. Excellent fan service. Not to much but just enough to be very erotic. A perfect combo for a springtime anime. Haha. Pretty realistic to what really goes through the heads of those in that savage season. *sniff* Can you smell that? 🤤 The first few minutes were strange but then it got goo after that. I liked the rest. |

| YES!!! FEELS LIKE FOREVER SINCE WE'VE HAD AN EDGY FANSERVICE ANIME<33333 |
   |
| I'm reminded of Taboo Tattoo after watching the first episode. I loved the art and animation. I'll keep on it. Fan service is always a plus. |
