This is so interesting and scary !!!! So Miko is so stoic and brave !!! I admire here for that !!!

This anime really captures the concept of that horror/scary atmosphere !! Also I like that colorful OP song.

A very interesting and intriguing story but I don't know why
they put some fanservices... 😅 Though, I don't dislike them.

I finally get to see this trending series and at the last half of
this episode, I get to see Mieruko-chan getting scared... 🤣

At the moment, she is a likable character and her VA/CV fits
her current description/personality.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

First episode was certainly an interesting idea, seeing horrors like that and trying to simply ignore them but the constant unnecessary perv garbage really ruined the immersion. How can I be properly creeped out when in the next shot the camera zooms on her butt? Are Japanese young people so pathetic that they need that every 30 seconds?

I honestly wasn't expecting much from the Mieruko-chan anime. I read some of the manga and it was not such an enjoyable read. It got tiring over time. However, the show delivered qualities that overcame my initial apathy.

In the beginning, in some parts I was actually a little nervous but as the episode went on it was really funny instead of scary.

Those things were scary really love miko and her reactions and those ecchi parts were like a cherry on top for me. The opening is very good

This is a really faithful adaptation.
I love how the ghosts look, the little jumpscares, and the animation.

Shows with something different have pretty good first episode but they're bound to become stale.

Also the reason why aot,ds,jjk are popular because those shows can relate far more.

Overall, good comedy but I'm sure will get nothing special in a few episodes.

Some top-tier cultured angles I see ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Respect to Miko for trying to stay calm and act like nothing is out of the ordinary, curious to see what direction this series is going.

I didn't know what I was going to get but I'm pleasantly surprised so far.

I noticed her mom have the ponytail of death. I hope it isn't an omen.

Perfectly said. This episode actually made me sweat nervously (I even got jumpscared once), but the fanservice kind of undermines the tension during the scary scenes. I hear it's toned down more as the show goes on though, so I don't really care too much.

It does get better, comes and goes in the first half or so of the season, later on almost vanishes.  Really baffling why it was done at all, fanservice can be done but not so blatantly or frequently in this type of show.  Fanservice aside, if you liked this first episode I think you'll enjoy this anime as a whole.

Yep, I just finished it and really enjoyed it. The fantastic and hilarious dub really helped too.

so, this episode introducing that she suddenly gain the abilities to see ghost?
I thought we started from her daily life that she already deal with it daily.

well, if she want to do something about exorcism, why didn't she go to the shrine? she might getting help there.

Cute JK girls and scary ghosts.

Props to the camera man for beautiful camera works at Mie-chan in those scary moments.
Anime is fun.

Too much weird ecchi shots. Im usually fine with a few, but the amount of them were just crazy in this for no reason. Sucks bc the manga was a good read but i feel like the ecchi stuff takes a crazy priority.

I only started watching this because netflix said they were removing it on boxing day, and I had vaguely planned to start watching it at some point.

Unfortunately I heard from some friends it's not that good, but I like the concept and what I had seen of the manga art, here's to hoping I enjoy it more than they did!

I see the claims of the anime upping the fanservice a bit seems to be true. Well, that's what I'd say, but after checking the first chapter again it's pretty accurate. I did remember the manga having maybe a bit more fanservice in the early chapters, and it's not like it's completely gone later on, but something about it in this ep just felt kinda lame. I dunno, not a huge deal, but I'll see how I feel after finishing it.

The anime original build up, I get why they'd add it, but it was kinda between meh and eh for me. I like how the manga just starts off with the ghost without warning. Liked a bit of the cheeky foreshadowing there. Yuria/Julia scene was kinda cringe though.

Love what I'm seeing so far.

Mieruko is so hot, love the different shots of her butt and thighs in this episode. Hope there's lots more! 🤤😍

Pretty nice first episode. Definitely creeped me out a bit

Freaky episode!
What else can she really do though besides not acknowledging them, especially since they don't know she can.

Not sure about the inclusion of the fanservice shots, felt a bit unnecessary.
