Amazing visuals and sick concert though the characters and animation (this one is better IMO) reminded me of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya somehow..maybe Yuri?

The beginning of this ep was quite strange I must say...... o_0 But as the episode went on it got sooooo much better. <3 I'm actually really surprised that I like this show. I thought I was gonna hate it. Glad to see I was wrong. I like how this episode took the time to somewhat introduce all the characters. The 3 that stood out to me so far though were Yuri, Iwasawa, and Kanade. Kanade was all epic with her ninjaness and her quiet personality. Yuri's cool cause she reminds me a lot of myself. And Iwasawa's voice = nose bleed. (In both Japanese and English) The rest of the cast also seems very interesting since there's such a wide variety of characters. I'm surprisingly looking forward to episode 2. =D 4/5 cause the beginning kinda screwed it.

To say the least. I can see this show ending with Angel and the anti-Angel group having a lock in at the rec center with pizza.

So they're dead an the purgatory is a school? And why only teens? Japanese and their fetishes...

Anyway, it looks pretty funny.

It's too early for me to start ranking, but as far as first episodes go it really got my attention. I like the animation, and the concert scene rocked. However, I can't help feel like the primary guy, still not sure what to make of this situation. I'm still not sure I buy the line about angel being 'The E1 #1 Enemy etc.' Feels a bit like propaganda, but they definitely have me hooked for a couple more episodes I'd say.

They're dead but not that dead yet...somewhere in between? Maybe purgatory is a game with NPC? Why a school and only teenagers? Where did they get the guns and the bullets? Opps too many questions on the first episode which is understandable, I hope they get resolved later.

Interesting episode.
The OP and ED were great. The visuals were really neat. The characters are promising.

But the whole "you can't die, but have to fight not to die?, in order to... get some food and live?" premise seemed really awkward to me.

Will see how it unfolds afterwards...

Still, it was a pleasant episode to watch, and I liked the humor.

4/5

yeah i'm a bit confused too, what are the conditions to disappear? Does interacting with the npcs make you disappear like (just vanish), so that's why they stealing meal tickets, or is it cause interacting with npcs attracts angel and contact with her makes you disappear??? o.O need some confirmation, really woulda prefer it explained better this ep.

This was interesting.. and confusing lol

The beginning half of the episode gave off really strong Dokuro-chan vibes. If that stays consistent, I might fucking drop it. God damn.

I have high expectations from this. I hope it doesn't let me down.

Funny episode with good action and great animation. The plot seems interesting but I feel that this episode was rushed before the concert. Will also be interesting to see how the main character died if he remembers it.
The statement below is true.

After watching this episode i have this feeling of ''Wtf is going on here?''One thing i didn't get at all is why do they fight to survive if they cant die?
The OP was great and the life concert part was nice.

Really excellent first episode of an anime. Sheer entertainment value from the very beginning and a hilariously eccentric cast to boot. The fight near the end was quite a scene.

Can't say yet if the series is any good or not but i'm really liking the English voice actor of the main girl. I guess it was good thing that the English was set to primary language because very rarely i even test what the English cast sounds like.

very interesting episode :)

it actually felt dark in the first few moments, then it gets light hearted all of a sudden XD

surprisingly, the artstyle, uniform, weapons, characters and even the blood reminds me of Chaos;Head!!

same animation studio?

the music is amazingly soft and heart warming!

i feel like they're gonna pull some twists towards the end.

will watch more of this :)

especially seeing Tenshi and Yui!!



i expect great things in the coming episodes :)
