THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
It should be worth more punctuation, it is a very nice comedy with so many references, maybe because it is not at the bottom of the manga because of what I see.
Still I laugh a lot and it reminds me a bit of Dokuro-chan with a mix of Kobayashi-san and Gabriel DropOut xD

The show is basically a mix of Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan and Kobayashi-san's Dragon Maid, not so much Gabriel Droput imo. The first episode could have benefited a bit more from the introduction of the characters and their situation instead of jumping directly into the comedy. The preview video which shows Yurine's summoning ritual should have been added to the first episode instead of being shown briefly as a dream. Many things like; why Medusa's gaze doesn't turn Yurine into stone, why Jashin-chan doesn't attack Yurine while she sleeps at night, what happened to Pekora's halo or where did that dog creature come from have been explained in the manga but not in the anime. Also, even though Yurine wears an eye patch her eye is not blind as we see in the manga.

Did they seriously skip over all the introductions ep just to force all the girls in from the start? Really this should be a short too.

A little disappointed by this first episode, too redundant for my taste. After a few minutes you understand what you want to suggest the narration. I was hesitant to continue this anime series after watching this episode, but I took courage and I'm happy. Very good quality of drawings, ditto for animations. Both the opening and the ending are nice.

Wow! My first message after starting a new life here on MAL. XD

Couldn't make it past 7 minutes. Dropkick is a gag manga with over-the-top cartoon violence, and firmly establishes Yurine (the gothic) as a badass character. She'd be unsympathetic, if Jyashinsama (the naga) didn't have such an exasperating personality! Instead, we get a vaguely slice-of-life hotpot scene, with characters who were introduced later in the series, confusing the audience.

Pretty hilarious yet quite f*cked up setting if you ask me! Quite something and I really do wonder what kind of "story" this anime will have other than the continuous attack between those two.

Not bad when you just want something mindless to watch, hope it branches out at least a little from the gags.

It's a bit confusing because there's no settings at the start, it's like it's the middle of the anime, it was funny tho.

Classic Nomad first episode. Weak start similar to Kitakubu but hopefully it follows the same trajectory and becomes an awesome show as well.

I kept thinking I was watching episode one of season two or something because there is no introduction to the charaters. Legit thought amazon made a mistake listing this as the first episode of season 1.

Poor Jashin-chan. All that pain. :C

A little confusing start because they skipped all the introductions. Still, it was an ok episode.

i dropped this sometime ago and im starting anew. jashin is one of the most unlikeable shitty characters i know of. i guess that is the point and her entire character but its so unlikeable im annoyed whenever she opens her mouth or she doesnt even need to open her mouth when her actions are all stupid as well.

yurine is fun though

I'm enjoying this but some kind of introduction to why the devils are even on earth would be nice. I guess jumping straight into it without any explanation is kind of a funny joke in its own way though
