WTF was that?

no more money? what a cheap and strange episode.. seems like they only want to get our interest with the opening and the first two episodes to buy the game?

LOL - You where faster xD

Well, the best was imo the run-away scene...I should make an animated gif of it xD
Besides the straaaange animation, this episode was merely some sort of filler, or, atleast, a not very important episode since it doesn't show any character developement or story evolution.
Well, let's wait for the next xD

The episode was "different" like the first and second one but it was still good.
I hope the next episode will be better.

Huh? I didn't see what was so bad about it...

That prisoner girl and the half-dog guy were a really cute couple. xD

That episode had its moments, but other than that, it was just o.k. In terms of animation, I can't decide whether Production I.G. made some budget cuts or they purposely made the scene look like that. The relationship between the beastman and the human was cute, though. And Mamoru Miyano (Kyrie) at the end of the ep promoting the game...XD.

The very beginning of the episode it shows them getting tossed in a cell. They didn't show how they got caught though.

OK, I don't think i'll care about the storyline anymore. Let's just focus on the randomness

Pretty funny episode. Kuma-cannon, Kuma jokes... Blondie showing off his skills in the kitchen, Girl randomly came out of the tunnel XD

Wow, like the other people, I thought to myself:

"Wow, the production quality DROPPED."

It's like they used up their budget a quarter of the way through the episode.

I had high hopes for this show, too.



OH YEAH, and they get locked up without the audience even knowing how.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the show took a dive just as the release date for Sega's World Destruction video game arrived. What a bait-and-switch.

I know I weird, but I liked this epi more than the first two. However, I'm not too overly excited over the series so far. I wont go out of my way to watch it, Just, watching cause none of the series that I am following are out yet.

Quality down, Animation down, Story down.

still good episode tho.

IMO (overly optimistic) they're saving money for the remainder of the series. Hopefully we get a nice ending and some cool fight scenes in the next 2 months.

Who cares how they got caught, just how they act is obvious they'll end up doing something stupid. Anyways its still a pretty fun show. And this still piques my interest:

its a friggin 12 episode show... of course mundane details will be left out. Chillax people. You can't expect for a show about a Japanese Role Playing Game to be summed up in 12 episodes. The falling scene was pretty epic too. :)
And that thing about springland? Maybe the Destruct Code is some sort of terraformer? We'll find out. Well if you guys have an open mind im sure you'll enjoy it.

It was OK, not one of the best series from this Summer Season, not even close, but it's acceptable if you ignore all those 'kuma'

The story completely random, lmao xD I was expecting to make some sense out of it, but nah

Still, I think I got something from this episode. The Destruct Code gains power everytime they help someone...

It was not really a good episode as far as plot and character development are concerned, but still it was quite funny and informative. An average background episode to sum it up.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Ok episode, but still disappointing compared to the first two...

Some close up scenes looked really good, the other animation... well it has been said already plenty - it was cheap. =/


About the story: The beastmanxhuman couple was way too cheesy... if they want to show that beastmen and humans can get along, why can't they just do it by friendship, does it have to be a (cheap) romance at all costs?

I wonder what exactly activated the Destruct Code in Morte's hand at the end, because it seemed to be tied to emotions.

I liked this episode, it was silly and the animation was weird,
It's good they gave us some history about their world in the beginning, so the beastmen rule the humans and the sea is replaced by sand,
That escaping scene from beginning to finish was hilarious.
