| I was really looking forward to it because of the obvious reason that it's from the same creators as Death Note. Personally I didn't find the storyline appealing enough, actually I'm quite disappointed. The way they have been fussing about happiness is so cliche. And I'm sure they'll continue to blabber about it the whole 24 episodes. I don't know if I'll be able to survive that long. And it looks like it'll turn into all mecha, this is really not what I was expecting. I don't want to judge it and reach conclusions too soon so I'll give it a few more episodes. |
| Starts off very dark. I guess Nasse has no moral compass |

But make a best seller doesn't mean you will do the same with another story. Personally i didn't read platinium end so i will look the anime but with the pic you posted, the end of the manga make me feel there is something wrong with the story because it's really bad sells at the end :O |
| excellent start, what determines the success of the anime will be the strategy of each battle |
| It started so fast and it felt like everything happened at once, but that's why there are pilot episodes, right ? :D The first 10 minutes were a bit of a cliché but the twist about Mirai's aunt and uncle was really good and the anime went from 1 to 10 all of a sudden! Thank goodness there was no awkward scene between Mirai and his aunt. I'm trying to prepare myself for anything while watching anime.... Since it will last 24 episodes, I think there will be many filler episodes. I hope I am not bored at that time. But so far it's going really well. Also I don't want to read the manga because I want to be surprised while watching. :3 I really liked the mystery part. |

| Ive seen bad, and oh boi I just hated this first episode, I"m hoping it gets better with those other god candidates can damn this was a dumpster fire. I guess Its just not for me but I can be proven wrong if things go a different course. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Death Note The eDgLoRd Edition Now With Really Intensive Raw eMoTiOnS! So the uncle rigged the car in such way that it exploded in one push of a button...if no amount of dynamite was involved (and the police would be very intrigued) there's one explanation - this car was Tesla. The angels are so sus. PS All the posters here who see "mature tone" - are you guys twelve or something? |

| Definitely interesting in what comes next, even though the manga readers here seem less enthusiastic |
| Man, this is way better than those lousy isekai themed animes... So, are we gonna be seeing more fanservice after that hot aunt.... |
| Well, this was somehow okayish episode, ngl I expected a bit more. And given that this is just too similar to Mirai Nikki (MCs name is Mirai - coincidence?) which wasn't all that great I shall keep my expectations low for now since with what manga readers are saying it is gonna get worse somehow? Like idk but the only thing this anime has going for itself is the mangaka and I just don't know if that is gonna cut it. |
| This episode was okay, nothing visually spectacular but not bad either. Skipping out on Mirai's nightmare and Tonma's short introduction on the TV was weird, makes it feel less coherent because he just appears for 3 seconds and gets killed by another candidate, and they'll have to explain the red arrows next episode. 5/10 MeanEYE said: That's just the animation team making a mistake. It doesn't happen in the manga.I just love how the angel states "don't worry about wings, they won't snag on anything" and the very next scene MC is flying and touching the surface of the ocean with wings creating waves. If you come up with your own rules and then break them it's incredibly short-sighted and annoying. Other than that good first episode. |

Brushrop03 said: GingZ said: This can be my anime of the year ngl. Idc about the manga, I like the concept and I already liked it since the 1st ep, can't wait for the rest of the episodes Lol how do you not care about the source material when this is just an adaptation? Manga readers are just giving you a heads up of what to expect. Anime of the year after just 1 eps? C'mon, man... They say its bad but idk in what way , maybe for me i’ll like it, its not because majority hated the manga , i’ll for sure hate the anime. And I said “this can be” my anime of the year, the year almost finished and its my favorite among the other fall 2021 anime I watched. I liked episode 1 and I see it has potential from what i’ve saw so far, in the end it being my anime of the year is opinion based. Agree to disagree 🤷🏻♂️ |
| Not a fan of battle royale tbh but I will be keeping an eye of this because I liked the authors past works despite being so different from one another. Nasse or I guess all the angels are really creepy, but Nasse especially with that childlike voice and act. |

LET'S FOLLOW THE HYPE! IT'S FROM THE DEATH NOTE AUTHOR! 2. Err.... wtf, disappointing. Dropping this shit. |

| I'm not sure if this Angel is good or evil ^^; I mean, she's basically giving options for Mirai to turn a delinquent without ever being noticed lol I'm in shock just by discovering Mirai's aunts have trashy souls who only cared about money and nothing else. There's a saying that "If you want everything, you'll lose everything" and that is soo true :/ , at least that's my point of view and the way they are trying to show us here. The beginning seems alright and I'll give a couple of episodes to see the progress/development of this series, cuz I'm not so sure yet. Also, this is giving me Mirai Nikki vibes >.> |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| I’m not feeling the animation, it just feels so uninspired. MC is another generic edgelord. Checks off the box of dead parents and being adopted by assholes. But I’ll probably keep watching just for the pedigree. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| This episode was as hollow, cliched and empty as you could go, but I will try to trust it a bit more since it was made by the team who had also made Death Note. |
| Not really a fan of the art style used for the characters, however the scenery when he was flying around was absolutely stunning. Episode was decent, enjoyed it a bunch though. I was reluctant to watch this too, and I'm glad I ended up going through with it cause it's pretty interesting. Didn't even know it was by the same people that made Death Note till coming here lmao |
| I remember in Death Note, Light said he want a Wings and now the author give it to the MC in another series. Could be a reference to that lol Oh boy isn't that a depressing first episode. Interesting Premise, another Battle Royale Anime. Animation and Art was alright, i like jt. I think the last one that i watched was Darwin Game was on 2020. Considering the amount of Isekai, i kinda like something different. |

| So much originality lol, the 24 minutes felt like an hour. God aesthetics were decent I guess |
| That was a minimum 9/10 first episode. People are just giving it bad ratings because they went in with a negative opinion of the manga. This and Saihate no Paladin getting ratings in the 7's is fucked up when Komi is getting over an 8.5. Everyone just wants to watch "misunderstood kid at school" over and over and over again. |
 |
| Hmm, I liked the beginning and the concept that being an Angel doesnt necessarily means that they're good. But overall I felt that its just gonnna be another Battle royale kind off Anime with some weird powers like the love arrow und such. |

Most people (including in Japan mainly) watch the anime even if they drop the manga or if it not popular. Maybe the adaption can do the Manga (and story) justice. Sales dont mean everything all the time. check out tokyo revengers sales before and after the anime. The whole point of anime is to boast the sales of manga. |

You are wrong, manga is much more mainstream then anime in Japan. When sales dip this much it clearly means there is something wrong with the story. |
 |
| The plot seems interesting will not lie.. everything else? idk.. the world seems empty.. the animation is mediocre at best.. Death note from 2006 looked better.. the hype osts aren't either used properly or just.. lack that hype.. lets see.. i hope the animation gets better.. |
| Animation is pretty standard, not the best, but not the worse I've seen either. I'm looking forward to seeing this animated. Not the biggest fan of the story, but I'm hoping they do a better job at adapting this, since the manga itself is a real slow burner. |
 |
| Good start, nothing crazy but i liked it. Let's see.. Didn't read the manga and maybe it's somehow stupid but i compare Lucifer with Nasse as she called her self ''high ranked angel'' and all those things about steal money/killing people etc. |

| Why'd I get Death Battle vibes from this anime. Like yeah it was kinda serious but the Gods are Sentai now? Idk we'll see how this goes. |
