Certainly interesting.. Although the plot is kind of confusing at the moment, this title did manage to catch my interest, and I'm wiling to wait for one or two more episodes to get a better grasp of the plot. The animation, especially the scenes with the sword, them using their powers (fires?) and the skateboarding scenes were awesome! I love the angles of the shot, especially the skateboarding scenes!

And possibly... Isana X Kuroh?? I saw Isana blushing when Kuroh hugged him...!

And by the way their English was horrible.... even the Japanese viewers were making fun of it


Like seriously he just blushed, and it's already turning yaoi for you?

This..
Just fanservice for the audience, since come on.
We all know that most of the people watching this are female.
Bishounen = Big female audience = fanservice
Then there's going to be the Neko fanservice then everyone's going to complain about how this is going to be some dumb ecchi/romance anime.
Calling it now.

I doubt it.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

It's not just the blushing... the whole second half of the episode literally screams "Yaoi"...
And unfortunately that's the only thing I was able to get out of this episode: that it's a Yaoi series. A particularly impressive Yaoi series on the visual part. Though if that's true, it's gonna be a weird Yaoi series, what with the girl in love and neko-chan and all that nonsense.

But I'm still waiting for it to throw a bit of actual story at my general direction before I can make any assesments.

How? I don't see what you're talking about. Watch the second episode. I thought when he blushed it seems a little yaoi but that was it. And what's wrong with yaoi anyway?

Nothing. It's just not everyone's cup of tea.

I'm just saying it has a clear yaoi feel to it. Whether that's good or bad or insignificant varies from person to person. But you can't deny it's there...

Oh that rescue part <3 _ <3 reminded me oh Shion and Nezumi from No.6. The characters looks a looottttt like from Durarara and No.6 but i still don't understand anything O_O BUT BUT BUT i'm always ready to watch anything with even a hint of BL <3

But i still don't like Neko BLEH! @_@ since i'm in to BL any naked girl would bother me D: So i'm assuming that, that girl 'Neko' is that lil white neko with Isana shiro? I rather have her in her original form o.o than in human...

The visuals were amazing; so many different angles, not to mention fisheye and a broad color spectrum!

I like the action so far too, though I'm looking forward to have things explained some more. For example, what's with the two giant swords appearing up in the air? And what kind of magic is "sanctum" ? Also, what's the deal with Isana?

So many questions!

The color and hue over-saturation/contrast (particularly the blues and the greens) were annoying and hurt my eyes. Which is unfortunate, because the animation seemed decent and some scenery porn abound. Ugghhh.

I am a sucker for visuals.

At the same time, if this ends up being a Guilty Crown (great visuals and an amazing soundtrack but SHITTY story), I am so going to flip tables out of anger. So far so good.

A little BL ain't better either~ <3

Great visuals, and I'm loving the whole blue-yellow scheme. It makes you feel like you're trapped in a lomographic world.

Sadly, I don't see anything good or even substantial about these characters. Either they're too flashy (Homra leader, Yatogami) or too bland (police people, the rest of the Homra team 'cept for the blonde). Story-wise, I thought episode one was a passable pilot episode. It could've been better if there's something to cling on to story-wise other than that cliffhanger.

Wait, he's asking everyone for samples of their side dishes everyday, since it looks like they're so used to it. o_O

The cleaning robots have weird programmed responses. LOL

I'll take a wild ass guess that the naked, floating catgirl from the stairs was the same white kitten that's following him around.

Yatogami reminded me so much of Kanda from D.Gray-man. Maybe that's not such a bad thing.

The skateboard chase shots were cool. Anyway being the first episode, I have tons of questions already. The answers will probably come in due time.

Yikes... fanservice on the first ep already?
This smells like a shounen imo

Why did I get a Deja Vu feeling while watching this?
Anyone else out there alse thinks some of the characters are a little bit too similar to some other famous ones from different series?

I mean....
The bat guy:


The fake Shizuo


No. 6 homage?


That's kinda gay...


And I'm sure I've already seen these somewhere too... I'll post it here again if I remember where.


not feeling very enthusiastical about this show...

The animation was definitely very appealing. As far as the plot goes I will have to give it a few more episodes before coming to a verdict on that. The similarity to No.6 was one of the first things I thought of when I saw the two main characters.

Might need to give it more than a few episodes...after seeing the first four, it still seems like the plot is filled with holes.

Impressive superpowers animation and technical department. Lots of cool factor but full of worrying factors. First lots of show but nothing much great until now in terms of plot second unimpressive protagonist with stupid voice and the worst of all BL vibes which means the plot will go to hell if true.

Allot of mystery in this first episode with little to none information about anything so I'm currently not sure what I'm watching actually although it seems quite interesting, seems to have some nice action and story buildup must become nice later on I assume.

Either way a decent start not sure now but I think I'll like it further on.

The kitten was rather cute :3

Art and soundtrack was dope, the story wasn't at all much for the first episode, but hey, it's only been 24 minutes.

The skateboarding scenes were really well done. Being a skateboarder myself, I've found the attention to detail really pleasant. From the sounds of wheels on concrete, asphalt, and bricks, (skateboarding on bricks feels amazing by the way), to the conventional use of the fisheye lens while filming, and the fluidity of how each move is done.

Too bad the character seems arrogant.

Art was amazing,same with the soundtrack it was tight.So far my favorite King that we've seen of was the Red King Mikoto Suoh,he looks badass.Not counting the kings my second favorite character so far is Misaki Yata,he seems really aggressive and seems really loyal to Mikoto.Not to mention he probably kick ass each episode.

was a pretty kick ass 1st ep i gotta say, the addition of Hollywood Undead for the opening on this one was a first, i've never seen an anime that used a song from an American band before as their opening, but as i heard already its not the real op for the show :(

Whow! That's the only way I can explain my reaction. There was so much in just one episode. The animation is great. The atmosphere is epic too. The superpowers kick ass. The characters are really cool. I just can't find something I don't like about this anime on the first episode. There is possibility for some nice plot too, I can feel it. The Colorless king seems to be an awesome character despite his dark secret.. whatever that thing about him turns to be.

I'll enjoy this anime while watching it, I know it ^^

many of you did not understand the first series but my advice to you will understand all of the following series.
I promise it will be wonderful you'll like much characters, music, text, and more ...

Also, that blonde guy with 'sun glasses' reminds me pretty much of Shizuo from Durarara! He smokes, wears same 'sun glasses', is a blondie, works as a bartender xD
