| It was cool, I guess. Random as hell, though. Jokerface ftw. |
| Weird, but got potential. Interesting :) |
| It may seem weird, but this whole episodes was like a déjà-vu to me, I don't know why, but it felt that way. Especially the ending, I really think I've heard once a song years ago in which a certain part sounds the same as in: "Kuraimakkusu nante; konakutatte" and "Kimi ni ima hamacchaitainda" and "A or B ja nai ya; rikutsu ja nai ya" is sung. Anybody who did also heard it, or it just an illusion of mine? (I think it's a song originally made in the English language.) |
| Okay, so what in the world did I just watch? Basically, this series to be a mixture of Yu-Gi-Oh and Higashi no Eden, all this flavoured with a pinch of marketing. It was strange, that's a fact - but in spite of that it was quite a fun thing to watch and it does seem to have enough potential to be one of the better series this season. We shall wait and see, I guess. |
     |
| So... strange. Although, it is MUCH better than what I anticipated. It has potential..... |
  |
| very interesting, one of the best this season thus far noitamina seems to never fail at getting the good shows |
| I just want to say. I mentally jizzed. |
| Well im having trouble grasping the overall concept of this anime. Willy Wonka could've done a better job at explaining things, so let me get this strait... this involves fighting a duel with summons in an alternative dimension and those who win get $$$? Sounds cool, hope to see some character development here |
| It was meh. Maybe its those frikin character designs |

| Dropped. No, wait. I'm not that cold, so I'll give this show more time. So the plot is basically Japan goes broke, then Japan gets gets bailed out and now everyone wants to be a government worker, where the big pay and job security is (any economy would not recover under that). Oh, and there's this mystical RPG battle ring called the "Financial District" where "entrepreneurs" battle for money. I'm really struggling to not drop this! |
| Love the opening and ending songs! The show is really weird but I'll give it a shot! |
 |
| It wowed me, mostly because I had low expectations of this. The plot was interesting enough to hold my attention and the characters are awesome so far. I loved the art style they're going with this, it's unique enough to stand out and it looks cool. |
| My first impression was that it looked like Kuuchuu Buranko. Then, it was like Yu-gi-oh, because of the cards and monsters. And after that I really don't know what to think, maybe because the animation is bothering me a lot. It's interesting, but different from what I thought it would be. I wasn't expecting - or ready to? - that fight scene at all. Let's see how it develops. |
| Interesting first episode. |
 |
| Wow, It was a lot better than expected. |

| Uhuh. That wasn't I expected this to be but it's better this way. |
Jaymie said: That was insane. I don't really know what to think about it. I feel sorry for whoever has to write a synopsis for this episode. oh the synopsis is the "real deal" it's just haven't been explored yet. ^^ |
| Simplistic beauty can't be appreciated by someone who looks for something grand in everything he watch. |
| Love the first episode. Looking forward to the next one. As good as this episode was... I have one problem with it... How the hell does an Economics student not know what an Entrepreneur is? |
Clous said: The theme gives me the eden of the east feel which I dig. Exactly. that's what i thought. also Kaiji feel. join games for debts and money, and you will feel miserable. if my guess is right, this guy will regret in next episode to go after money like this but i also feel sorry for him because he was really forced to do that. |

| Really weird, I didn't expect something like this at all Definitely looking forward to more |
| Seems pretty awesome. Wasn't expecting to like it. |
| Nice start. I didnt realize Nakamura was directing this until I started watching. Definitely looks promising so far. |
 |
| Okayyyyyyy. And that's another weird show to add to this season. |
| So basically these people sell their souls to the devil for money, huh? Might be interesting, but I don't really like the fightning aspect of it. |
 |
| Interesting. I think it's the exact word to describe this. |
 |
| This has something interesting ;) |
| lightness vs. darkness Nani mo kamo wo hoshigatteita Mayoeru mono no chikai Mada miru sekai o tsukuridasu koto Kuchi hateteiku |
| Masakaki is so creepy and so cool at the same time (that voice *-*) that I like him! |
|
| When I was watching this, I had an Eden of the East feeling to it. This episode is so good! I can't wait for the next one! I have a feeling this will be one of the best anime this season! |
| didnt think this anime would be about cards, thought it would be more like a super power themed kinda anime though it seems pretty interesting for now, i'll just have to wait for the next episode and see if i should continue watching this. |
 |
| So far this anime seems interesting it really makes me want to return and figure what exactly is this Financial District etc, gonna give it a try. Also for those people that have made reviews about this already... seriously.. there is not enough material to really do a review.. |
 |
| That was one hell of an interesting episode and i am already loving Masakaki <3 OP and ED's amazing. ..it does look promising indeed. |
 |
| In spite of he awful teasers it was actually very good. : o I'd much prefer if it followed someone more mature than another college aged brat with unrequited love problem (someone like the salaryman from the beginning of the ep, in example) but I guess you can't have everything. ;[ |
| Liars game. That is all. xD |
| This season is full of win. |
| The plot and the way it’s being handled are interesting; although I’m not even sure about what did I just watch, it was good. It gave me a weird Kuroshitsuji vibe, for some reason. It indeed looks promising; the major thing that bothers me is the animation. I find it pretty lacking and character designs aren’t the best, I don’t really like it. CG looks odd, as always. But I do like the OP and ED themes a lot. And for real, it seems like Yu-Gi-Oh! with money. |
I think, then procrastinate. Therefore, I am. |

Because it's in Engrish. ^^ Truth. I think that's supposed to differentiate it from the actual economic term; I'm expecting it to be more like the master/servant thing from Fate/stay night than an actual business venture. This show is off to a really good start. As someone else mentioned, it was a bit uninteresting at first, but it really picked up a couple minutes in. I think the suicide is what made me realize that this isn't just something dumb. That devil-like guy is really interesting, but I really enjoyed the portrayal of the main character's reactions to him. The dream-in-a-dream thing was a nice touch, too. |
| I think it will be good series ;] and nice stuff for OP ^^ |
| A really weird but good episode. Looking forward to next episode. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| Pretty weird first episode, but I like it. =p |
| zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzznnnngggg awesome! |
