| >high school girls immune to radiation >stray dog lost it's status as a dog and became a new breed aka wolf >angst and edginess Wow, this was quite bad. And the art style with the lineout doesn't really suit the show. Oh well, it's just the first episode, but it already seems so horrible. I'll give it a chance. Maybe it'll work out, or maybe it won't. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| I liked the episode. The art and animation are great for me. I like Ibara so far. Aoi and Taeko are alright, too. I'm not easily annoyed by characters unless they do something that will rub me off the wrong way. Glad it didn't so far. |

Maybe it'll work out, or maybe it won't. You are too fast, zeta... Anyway, i completely agree with him. This is a horrible premise that has only a faint chance of working from the very beginning. Too bad people will interpret this forced drama with hilarious angst moments as social commentary... |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| I like almost everything here. Just hope they wont ruin the great OP song with some generic video like it was in K. Am I the only one who found Aoi annoying? |
 |
| Expecting this to be one of top anime releases this fall |
| Decent episode,don't have high expectations for this though. couldn't help myself but wonder why they were wearing high-school uniforms. |
| One of the most interesting anime this season for me hands down. Loved it. |
 |
| Badass is all I can say. I like the animation, character design, and atmosphere in this. Definitely looking forward to this series. |
| Anime met Chernobil. I didn't liked the animation however the backgrounds were freaking beautiful. Also it would be awesome if viral mutant creatures were the focus of the show and these girls were to hide almost every time and when fighting face to face it would be in a intelligent way but I don't see how's that happening now, it seems to me this is going to be rather "realistic". I've no great expectations for this show. |
 |
| Animation's a bit lacking imo but was an okay ep for now, I'll keep watching for now, just hope this wont turn into some find some half dead people, save them, bitch about the condition cycle each ep, really needs a plot, hoping it can deliver but right now I'm getting a bad feeling it might disappoint. I'll wait and see though, hope it surprises me! Salxer said: though. couldn't help myself but wonder why they were wearing high-school uniforms. this. (badly animated) cute girls doing radioactive things? |

I wonder why they only outline them sometimes, and then in that screencap Taeko wasn't outlined like the other two. |

| Well, her ass is grass. Taeko is probably dead, look at all that blood. |
parfaited said: I always did like K's scenery porn though in this case it's more sepia toned here but still good. Kerozinn said: still watching..just wanted to say one of the girls annoys me greatly already. Let me guess, it was the one voiced by Hanazawa Kana? She did start off quite uhhmmm grating. bingo! Aoi Fukasaku. |

| Didn't like it at all for some reason. Could be because I hate seeing girls wearing school uniform doing military stuff (what most anti-anime guys first point out when debating with me about why anime suck), could be animation style (actually no, I don't mind it) or it could be silly premise. Either way, 3-4 more episodes before I decide if I drop it or continue watching. |

|
| Well not bad. But other than Ibara, the other characters are pretty boring. He'll...I didn't expect to say this but Kana-chan's voice is annoying. That's how annoying Aoi is O_O Ibara is awesome though. And the setting is nice ^^ |
 |
| Fantastic art. Interesting plot. Great ED song. Going to enjoy this one for sure! |
 |
| Almost forgot to mention, jumping off the bridge and landing like that.. lol |
| So... why high-school girls? And why with normal personalities as if they're forced to go on some obscure school trip? I really didn't think the premise worked out with these characters. I mean, at least one of them were component and knew what she was doing, but the other two ended up complaining about WALKING and dead people. It confuses me when they're considered 'dolls' with inputted DNA, so why input them with genetics that'll not benefit them when saving others? The animation's pretty at least (those outlines though...) and the atmosphere's alright, but the plot has too many holes and it really doesn't build-up to anything, especially with 2 annoying characters.... Why is she reacting like this? Didn't she go through training? Why do they always praise the main one and why aren't they taking this seriously and why do they seem so clueless? Ugh. |

| Nice episode. Was alot better than i expected. It somehow had a similar feel to it as Shinsekai yori. Anyways, loving the story so far :D |
| Holy shit! That art was amazing! I was blown away! :O Kana~ <3 I knew the dog/wolf was going to be bad... ;~; Interesting so far, can't wait to see where this goes. |
"Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark" |
| It was okay so far. The outlines, I'm going to need to get used to that. Really gonna need to get used to that. I'm going to go ahead and agree with the guy above me that it's stupid that they go in with HS uniforms. I mean, okay, engineered girls, old enough to do this. But even if they can survive perfectly well, you would think they would be given more durable clothing than a HS uniform. Or at least pants instead of a skirt. -___- Looks like it's going to get better as we go. |

theHitchHiker42 said: I only figured this out now but they call them "dolls" sometimes because like dolls they believe they do not have souls becaue they were not naturally born. Thats why the characters got worried about being just a "doll" or an animal because they are questioning their own humanity. Also genetics can only go so far and of course they are fit to save people better they are immune to radiation and one of them has increased senses (they probably all do but one more than the others). Actually i dont think they were even supposed to save people since they were told not to which at this point why they were going out instead of a scout robot sort of deal is unanswerd.So... why high-school girls? And why with normal personalities as if they're forced to go on some obscure school trip? I really didn't think the premise worked out with these characters.

| I'm simply enchanted by those gorgeous post-apocalyptic background visuals. On the down-side it makes the less refined animation stand out in a negative way though the wolf attack looked excellent animation-wise, as short as it was. I actually don't mind that once again the main cast consists of teenagers even in such an unusual setting. All three of the girls have shown different sides of them and the writing has been wonderfully subtle at some occasions with how it only gives some inplications about the meaning of what is said and done by the characters without spelling out each single detail. |
 |
| Gorgeous backgrounds, interesting start, looking forward to the next episode. |
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good... |
| I loved it. Not used to the art tho, but it was still really good, and i also liked the ending song ^_^ |
| So far, I think that the anime is off to an ok start. There hasn't been anything that's stood out to me besides the scenery and some of the animation but, it is still the first episode so I hope that things pick up later on. Although, the outlines around the girls and the paleness of their skin bothers me. I hope that I get used to it or it become less apparent as the show goes on. |
| Interesting first episode, the art style of the thick lines reminded me of Shingeki no Kyojin. Loved the Ending! |
| The outlines are not necessarily bad, but more like, it doesn't match this show's style of art. :| Maybe with Uta Koi which was comprised of mostly patterns and solid colours, but definitely not this. Art is weird in general. It looks like the girls are blushing all the time. Otherwise, I found it to be a bit tedious and slow. Interesting plot, but a bit too mysterious for me to ponder what it's about. The preview and ED pretty much ruined the suspense about their glasses friend dying. :/ Oh well. |
| I came with have only read the synopsis. I was pleased. |
| Have to say I really liked this episode. The outlines looked a bit off at times, but other than that I don't have any complaints. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Been waiting for this anime for quite some time. I honestly think one of the reasons why it was delayed was due to the nuclear reactor incident that happened during the large earthquake in Japan a few years ago. Nice to finally see it airing. That said, it really reminds me of the manga Dragon Head for some reason. |
| It was fine.ED though was brilliant, angela FTW. |
 |
| Interesting story line so far... Aoi was so sad xD |
| Wow this is so intriguing, i love the background and the overall atmosphere. The directing is cool, the camera movements and angle in the wolf scene is delicious!!! Also i find it extremely ironic that the girls said that, "We're not just puppet right, we're human", or something like that, and that several minutes after, the man above inside the plan said, only robots and puppet could live in that city. Maybe it can be my anime savior for my empty soul after Shingeki no Kyojin ends. |
| Thought it was interesting, but something about this first episode just didnt click with me. millo said: This was exactly my thoughtsAlso i find it extremely ironic that the girls said that, "We're not just puppet right, we're human", or something like that, and that several minutes after, the man above inside the plan said, only robots and puppet could live in that city. |
| I really loved this! I can already see myself watching this until the very end. Love the scenery and the overall feel to the anime. It's probably just me but i sort of like how rough and weird the characters look compared to the background. I'm already picking favorites among the characters too. I didn't seem annoyed by any of them but i do look forward to see how they deal with the whole puppet situation and how that will affect them in the long run. Also, this cliffhanger has me super worried. Taeko needs to be ok, you can't give me this pain in the first episode!! |
| As expected the art is superb. It took a while to get used to those outlines in the characters though. Loving Ibara's accent. Pretty good start, although with many plot holes and some annoying characters already, it looks like this will get more interesting as it goes on. The ED song is hella weird. |

| Wow, this is very intriguing! Definitely looking forward to the next episode. |
