| I wrote this at another forum, but I thought I should put it there for the record. Long story short: My kind of anime. (I'm also watching Dangan Rompa too.) |
 "Everyone go love Cyan!" |
| Not too sure about this one. Looks like a more violent version of Madoka. I like the character designs. The OP was cool. |

| Just watched the first episode. it was shit, i`m not gonna drop this but i`m watching it to make fun of this anime. |
 |
| i enjoyed the animation but the episode itself was rather boring so far. hope the series picks up |
 |
| I really wanna see more. |
| So, What do you think is on the other side? |
| For now is the surprise of the season, I would not even get close DROPPAR, but thanks to some pictures of a certain blog, I decided to check it out and have not regretted. May be somewhat mahou shoujo with a theme and nothing flashy, but if the seriousness of this first episode, might be a good anime. |

| What happened to the girl with eye glasses ? Did she die ? Also, when they visited the grave the second time, they didn't mention anything about the eye glasses girl as if she has never existed. |

Also, when they visited the grave the second time, they didn't mention anything about the eye glasses girl as if she has never existed. They didn't visited the grave the second time, that day repeated itself but without the girl, the girl was erased from existence as if she was never there, that's what happened to her. Not bad first episode, btw. |

| This was a pretty good start and the tarot card theme makes it even more interesting to me. This show has a lot of potential. |
| Awh I'd really love it if this went kind of shugo chara style with the X eggs (is that what they were called? I think so.) taking over people by searching for "holes" in their soul/heart/whatever (was this really the plot of shugo chara? I feel like I'm mixing up SC and World God Only Knows ... sorry, I saw it a really long time ago), like what happened with the sister, but instead of saving them they kill them. 3/5 too rushed, but I'm intrigued. |
| ugh brown girls dropped until next week |
 ^ Why isn't this updating... |
| 2/10 Wasn't that good but it may pick up later on. |
| added the fourth most popular anime onto this site |
| Didn't expect it to turn so dark so quick. First impressions, disliked the art style, too "cutesy" and loli-y. The pregnant woman looked 15 to me. But seeing as how I love tarot, I liked the theme a lot. Kinda pissed that they killed off her cousin without explaining how everyone forgot about her, but meh, maybe it'll explain later. Hope the people in the mansion fire are okay. Madoka is one of my fave animes so I'll enjoy this. |
 |
| I loved the style and music, but that's really it. The characters, the story... it was all boring to me. I almost fell asleep watching it. I did like the reference to Albert Camus' "The Stranger" though. Eh, I'll watch the next episode at least, but I'm not impressed so far. |
| I see people comparing this to Madoka, but this doesn't really feel like Madoka at all for me. |
| This was actually really good. |
 |
| This is so weird. |
| What happened to Fuyuna Shinzaki? o.o She died. And then the other day, she doesn't existed. |
| not a good first impression |
 |
| I did not expected that. I mean, it looks some girly shit. I wanted to watch it just for fun. But wow, let's wait for the next episodes. What happened to Fuyuna then. I hope it gets explained. And that girl with blue-red wings thingy interests me. =w=b P.S. The tarot trivia things really makes me curious. Too bad I'm so lazy to study it. |
 set made by tsudecimo ★ i m a d g m t r a s h ★ pnch ★ blc ★ mal rewrite |
| this is 1000x darker than i expected it to be. OAO;;; |
| That's it guys. This is Higurashi: The Magical Version. |
 |
| Interesting! and the art style is really cute. looks like we have another Madoka here.. or not(?). anyway, I'm looking forward for episode 2 :D! |
| This has more potential than people are giving it credit for. Since the same director as Nanoha is working on it, my expectations aren't low. I have to say, the Tarot card theme is really drawing me in. I know we have the Persona series, but it doesn't go deep enough. Genei actually does the research, seeing as the Akari uses the popular Celtic Cross spread and they explain the cards themselves pretty well. I do hope they release the whole deck to use. I'd love that! Its funny how people are reacting as if Madoka Magica is the only dark magical girl series that exists. It isn't the first, and certainly won't be the last. |

I hate how everyone is going to and is comparing to Madoka. e___e Madoka seriously isn't the first and it wasn't that great imo. Nanoha was REALLY good and I still need to watch the movies and following seasons. The first episode was good. I liked it, but didn't love it. I don't think they should have started out super twisted at first but, I think this has a lot of potential. |

| Hahahaha wow I first looked through the episode to see if it was a) subbed and b) good graphics and as i got to the end of it with the scanning through during the main battle in this i swear she reminded me n my fiance as Shana from Shakugan no Shana which was funny as hell i was so thinking she was going to start saying Urusai Urusai Urusai i swear my fiance n i laughed when i said that So far it is really good kinda reminds me of the new one with the dolls ummm shit Fantasista Doll thats it had to look it up to spell it though. So I shall see if it is as good or better then that watching quite a bit this season normally i dont want airing anime but i thought i would give it a chance this time. |
 |
| Loving the OP, it's really great. Anyways, this was a rather intense episode...!~ Wasn't exactly expecting this. But it wasn't bad :) I'm really confused about what happened to Fuyuna though...I hope she's okay. The animation isn't really doing it for me, but I guess I'll get used to it as it goes on. |
| Dat intro. Flutes started, we see someone running... Frodo? Akari: "Hai! (Yuru Yuri, hajimaruyo~!)" is how I heard it in my head. Good first episode overall, liking the OP and ED. Another dark Mahou Shoujo is never a bad thing but I don't think it'll be as good as Madoka. The atmosphere changes too often for my liking but I guess it's what they were going for. Hoping it goes beyond my expectations. |
| Great OP and ED! Really nice start. Has the potential to be a very good anime if it plays its cards right ;) |
 |
| This looks very promising and I usually avoid magical girls anime but damn their character designs and artstyle are just amazing. It's my main reason for watching this. |
 |
| Poor Fuyuna. D: |
| The OP was really good, so was this first episode. Seriously anyone else got shocked by the cross-dressing fortune teller ( i wasn't expecting that at all !) but apart from that this show seem like it will be as twisted as Madoka (same producer right ?) i mean her cousin existence was just erased and ever her doesn't seem to know it. If this show goes on like this it will it real big ( i hope it does), anyhow im looking forward the next episode. |
 |
| I spent most of the episode confused about what on earth was happening but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I think I've got the basics figured out now, though. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |

 |
| I don't really know where this is going, but it was enjoyable enough I suppose! |
| More "contrast" shows for this season. Cheerfully bright on the outside, grim dark on the inside. That was bloodier than I expected! It's quite unsettling to know that by killing the enemies that appear, the human victim is also killed. To top it off, the victim's existence seem to be erased upon death too. Akari ended up killing her cousin, and that cousin's parents forget she even existed. The first half of the episode was slow and relatively uneventful. The second half was decidedly unsettling... not helped by those screen "distortion" effects that add a tad more creepiness to it all. Also, KitaEri is part of the cast. I might have a keeper in my hands with this. |
| I guess I should stop judging series based on the synopsis. I instantly decided not to watch this because it didn't seem that interesting to me. Interesting first episode. The OP and ED were okay. The animation is good along with the OST. I really want to see how this will develop so I'll keep watching. |
| the girl remind me of kotoura |
| I enjoyed the 2nd half of the episode. |
  |
| This is gonna be good |
| Overall, this is a really good show. Haven't watched episode two yet, but am getting to it. The violence and blood did startle me, but it's a change from the stuff that I normally run into. Bright colors always attract me, so I always start watching shows like that. You get real tired of KAWAII DESU KA eventually, so I myself really enjoyed the show. Cute but with a twist. |
 |
| Very nice, similar to Madoka, magical girls with a bit more dark theme :) |
 |
| Well that definitely wasn't what I expected. Haha, I expected another magical girls series that's all moe and stuff xD Kind of a strange start, but I'd like to see where this goes. I like that the OP is done by LiSa lol when one of those frames with the static came, I thought it was my computer or screen for a split second because I pulled on some wires. |
 |
| Interesting series, Akari is so cute and full of life. The way they distorted the screen to show the powers foreshadowing in Fuyuna was pretty cool. I've never really been one for magical girl anime, but this one has definitely hooked me in. |
