| Well think it’s fair to say this has “worst anime of the season” locked up. An hour and a half after release and no one on MAL even made a thread for it. This episode was a little better than the first, but it’s hard to take anything seriously here. It’s an anime ass anime and in the worst possible way. Story is wacky, nonsensical and not the good type. There’s some real seiyuu power here, but it’s wasted on a subpar show. Of course I never drop anything so I’ll power thru but low expectations for this. |

| hopefully there will be a plot twist in later episodes because this is mediocre action show so far |
| Honestly, the animation is great, there are also some great city views early on. However, the story seems to be like its just something improvised with a lot of holes in it/lackluster of character. Episode 1 wasn't that bad until the suits and the narrator showed up also. This may turn out to be an episodic show of just going for borderlanders with a lackluster character which is quite dissapointing. |

| Brian Nightraid getting his real introduction with the hilariously bad UN's B-movie-like sequence of the Borderlanders, and from one moment to another, the Marginal Service is sent packing and looking for weird mushrooms that can be made into drugs in this Jukai land, all while Bolts and Robin are bickering over muscles. Getting targeted by armored Borderlanders, and the threat is very real, especially coming off from Zeno who prefers to work alone. But eventually they reach the drug manufacturing plant, which for Brian he continues being useless while the trio prove themselves more effective than most. This show, indeed, is so bad...it's good...or bad? Still have to see more. |

Peck Desmont is really something    |

Ky0nMe said: The lack of naked men is why it's flopping for me. I didn't come here for plot, characters, or some thinly-veiled commentary on immigration that may or may not be intentional. You can't put naked men on the cover and not give us the naked men. I don't understand why it seems to be so hated. ... unfortunately there are no naked men. |
| i actually think this show is so bad that it's good. it's like watching a house burn. horrible, but you can't take your eyes off it. that being said, i still don't think it's an objectively good show, but it's entertaining enough at least |

lol, this was another funny exchange     |

| I'm actually quite enjoying it. Yeah, it's nothing special but it's fun so far. Wonder what turn it shall take to really hook and sinker. Give me another Akiba Maid War Cygames. |

| I appreciate the Schwarzenegger references (lots to Predator, think the above is Commando), but that's the only nice thing I can say. Sorry. I have nothing to latch on to with any of these characters. The defacto joyless pill new partner (with the default dead loved ones backstory, natch) and Copaganda protag spend the whole episode being insufferable at each other (are they trying for sexual tension/BL bait? Because they're failing). Yankee's chemistry with Limey is about as inert, even with the Fastball Special antics. And it looks like, rather than anime's answer to MIB or Monsters vs Aliens, this is just gonna be another "comedy" of chucklefucks failing their way through every episode. There's so much better to watch, this season and in the backlog. Godspeed to everyone who sticks with this. If it gets better, lmk. |
LFreya said: I dont really blame you. This ep did have some small funny moments for me but for the most part, at the moment, characters are rather bland for me and story hasnt really hooked me much. I def will continue just to see how far this goes tho.I appreciate the Schwarzenegger references (lots to Predator, think the above is Commando), but that's the only nice thing I can say. Sorry.

| This episode had some good buddy cop comedy! The story and characters aren't quite there yet, but it feels more like a slow starter, rather than just bad. I hope it continues to improve next week. |
| I feel like its not that bad but its not really good either |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| 5 minutes in, and I had the urge to rewatch the OP song, but with better visuals. Then I went to do a bunch of other stuff, and it took me a couple of hours before I managed to finish the episode... What I'm saying is that it's simply not interesting. This is a typical case of top-tier seiyuu promoting a sub-par anime. I tried, but nope, I'm not going to watch this anymore. |

| That show is so bad that becomes good. I'm enjoying seeing this |
 |
| véi... why Cygames are spend money on this anime and not in another Bahamut anime ? |
| This is so silly i'm not even sure if i'm gonna get pissed-off or WHAT!?! 2/5. |
 |
| On the one hand, it's a really sloppy work - writing is disjointed, characters are stupid cliches, jokes are all over the place... On the other - I'm actually enjoying it. |
| English not native. Also, crazy, lazy and think in strange forms. Previously known as Ferasder. |
| This is so goofy. Not really good goofy or bad goofy or so bad it's good just goofy. At least gave me a couple of chuckles. |

| We didn't get naked men, but half the cast consists of himbos. I hope the rest of this show is just the characters being chaotic idiots, because this ep was way better than the more grounded ep before it. |
| Well, that was...an experience lol. |
 |
| The squirrel can talk dirty, funniest shit I've ever seen Morty! |
| Brian is really dumb, really dislike his reasoning. I would find him annoying too |
