| Animation, characters, music, everything perfect. As always, MAPPA and Madhouse never disappoints. |

| The animation was great as expected from the collab of two great studios. I liked the use of Moonlight Sonata. I also love Destiny's battle outfit it looks so pretty. The plot however is very generic with the aliens attack Earth premise. I hope that they will do something with the plot in the later episodes to make it unique. |
 |
| It was fine. The art was nice. The animation was good; not top tier but close. We'll see how the story plays out. I still dont understand the relationship between the Conductor and Musicart, but I'm sure (hopefully) they'll explain more. |
| I know they can't play music loud, but how come children don't know what music is, can't they just listen to it on headphones to not attract the monsters? Or am I just dumb and missed something? |

What a fantastic piece of eye-candy that was! The lighting and color design were phenomenal, and the animation was pretty damn good too. |
| Yea this already anime of the season. My most anticipated show of the season and it didn’t disappoint at all. I have to memorise the seasonal schedule still, didn’t know it came out yesterday. The art, animation, story, everything is absolutely stunning. |
 |
| Only watching for the sakuga and the studios behind it. |

| As soon as Takt got yeeted into the car, I understood perfectly the vibe this show was going for - and I am HERE FOR IT! Went into this with a bit of apprehension to be honest, but I like pretty much everything I saw in this first episode, and if it maintains this energy, I am going to have a lot of fun with this! ame-furi said: Actually, that's a good point. It didn't seem like this was set in the 1950's or anything based on the cars and whatnot we could see, so they should have that kind of portable technology at their disposal - but I suppose for World Building purposes it is more thematically appropriate to have the 'generation of children that don't know what music is' so I can't really be mad at it.I know they can't play music loud, but how come children don't know what music is, can't they just listen to it on headphones to not attract the monsters?

Or am I just dumb and missed something? Exactly, it would've been fine if they were living in some medieval times, but it looks like the modern world, yet they never heard of the concept of headphones? Even if music was banned by the government or whatever, people would still listen to it and show it to their children. Whatever, I can deal with this concept just for the sake of worldbuilding, even if it's kinda dumb lol. |
| It was a classic beginning ending at the end with the well-elaborated enemy on duty explaining the history of the world as the system of powers that is used a little bit, the brazen that turns into the weapon but it doesn't bother me, the transformation of Destiny seemed to me. Excellent reminds those of Fate but they knew how to give it their own style and finally the background music and that of the ED I am balanced, not annoying, and boring baby |
| Good first episode. I have no clue what the story is about but the animation was Chef's kiss |
 |
| Yeah.... good fight scenes, I liked that...... |
| How can anything start so perfect???? |
| Ara Ara~ |
| What a great first ep we got here. the animation is Godlike as expected from Mappa x Madhouse. I love more the Orchestral BGM and SFX especially the beep sound that Destiny's weapon made. It's just funny hearing it with a headset. |

Agmenos said: animejas said: Heard there's a game or something related to this series too? Yep it's a game, the released date isn't yet announced. Still no CBT either, but said that it'll release this year. Subreddit gachagaming is already creating hype with it, knowing the game is Bandai Namco Arts and DeNA collab, which two of popular game company in Japan, plus the MAPPA x Madhouse collab of anime,also known animation studio in Japan. Big oof. I really liked this episode but if it's just a gacha ad it's probably going to be a mid tier show with good animation. Sad |
| The production seems fantastic, the animation and the soundtrack were great. Premise was interesting and the characters seem nice. The fight sequences were awesome. This could go any way, it could turn out great, go downhill or just be average. I guess we'll know in due time. |
 |
| Pretty solid start. Hope it turns out well |

MyOwnGod said: Sokah said: Little kid humor. Der, look, I'm so stupid I just blew the wall out on a building and don't understand why that was a bad thing! Guy falls off building craters the ground. He's fine. Fight scenes are just random crap strung together, no flow, nothing makes sense, they're just put where they want and do stupid stuff that looks cool. Gotta throw in all that stupid millennial food human garbage. Trash. Utter trash. There's so much bitterness in this comment, lol. Who hurt you? Seriously though, it's obvious that the MC is superhuman, too. Otherwise he would easily die in the aftermath of any fight. So of course he'll make a crater and still be fine. And one of your favorites is No Game No Life with an actual bunch of plot holes where you need to turn off your brain and enjoy nice visuals and coolness? How is this different from your complaints about this first episode? Don’t bother. Dude hates pretty much everything he watches. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him be positive about anything. |
 |
| The good things so far is just the battle scene, music, and the Heroin character design. So far, it's actually a boring story... Hope it getting better soon. |
 |
| There ain't a single thing from this anime that is good. is all about art and visuals, good job Madhouse & MAPPA. |
| saw this at the mappa anniversary showcase but yall im GONNA GO INSANEEEE whats up with me loving literally everything in this anime that so far has only ONE episode? interesting story, Great animation, loveable characters and dynamics between them, lovely music and osts, etc ETC. i can go on and on paragraph to paragraph about them. and oh is blonde girl maybe guy mc's lover..? almost? ?? he's kinda shit towards her (being rude, calling her "good for nothing") because she's a robot(?) that is based on his past lover/someone important to him that died. maybe thats how this "musicartist" thing works. you need a musician to be a conductor that lends their strength and conducts the musicartist and the conducter & musicartist has to have a strong bond between one another bit reach of a theory just from a 3 second scene tho lmfao |
| WONDERFUL!! Blonde Zero-two rocks!! Hope this will be a good sensorial experimentation. I really liked this. I love music and music-themed anime. |
 |
| Will this be another Vivy Flourite Eye's Song? |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| Finally we got the this high namaste expected Mappa x Mad House project. Intro episode said us some of the details of the world. Animation is fully fluid, action sequences were great and stunning. And the use of classical pieces made it a chef's kiss for me. Can't say where it's directing, but holding much potential in it for future. |

| Glorious visuals, splendid animation and solid selection of music to accompany fights. The characters felt a bit flat and we don't have much of a story yet, but I hope that changes soon. |

| man, what to say? for sure this Fall season is starting fire and all, but for me it's for a long time, a very long while since i clicked so fast to an anime!! i absolutely loved everything about this first ep! i remember when youtube random recommended me some gameplay abt this masterpiece, and then i did deep research and got hyped the momment i knew it would have an anime! MAPPA as expected added some extra bright and emotion to this soul touching musical anime (as if music and such plot wouldnt be enought to conquer my heart! and interest) also gon leave here my kuddos to the V.A's, they made the charisma of those pretty main characters even better. idk, i feel obcessed alredy! from reading that this holded such huge Fate vibes x Guilty Crown, i really hope this show gains more and more public but for itself's autenticy!!  |
| Not sure about this yet. Had expected it to be more serious, less comedy. Liked the chars and the comedy though. Especially with the girl that eats a lot. Need to give this 1-2 more episodes to see if there is good plot or other interesting chars. (I do not think the plot will get interesting. But hopefully some of the other chars that make me look forward to the following episodes more. After this episode ... not yet looking forward to more.) |
| All pretty good, I love this animation and I hope that keeps in the next episodes |
 |
| I feel like it totally served as per the hype created, great animation as expected and I'm loving the dynamic between our MCs till now, the music is beautiful and visuals too. Excited to see how the journey continues from here ^_^ |
 |
| good anime with an outstanding art, but kinda lame in story welp, still 1st episode so i'll give it some more to impress me in this departament. But if they don't present a good story i'll keep watching just cuz its art is cool asf 3/5 to me for now |

 |
| It sure looks amazing, but I didn't really care about the characters or what happened to them. That road cafe owner sure didn't give a shit about the wall being blown up. |
| This is an eye candy for the aesthetics. The story is weird but quite interesting, let's see how it will unfold. |
   |
| After watching ep 1, madhouse + mappa makes complete sense, its pretty amazing, and probably will be my fav of the season if it keeps up with this level of quality and doesnt become dull and boring like happened with listeners. |
Wiinis5 said: Bro, I was so tempted to just close my eyes and listen when he started playing that one - but if I had, the smack would've jumpscared the living daylights out of me - so it's a good thing I didn't.favourite part was when the dude was playing moonlight sonata and the blonde girl gets smacked out of nowhere |
|
| Exceeded my expectations, not going to lie. I wasn't too excited for this anime, but after watching the first episode, I'm definitely looking forward to more. Love the combination of music and action fight scenes. Overall, good episode and great music. |
 |
| Animations, effects and sound designs are top tier but story is pretty weak so far. |
