THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I've read bits of the manga before. Well she's excited ^^


OP song is decent I guess. *bullets spotted* Oh and there's some cool art near end of OP song. Pretty cool.
The show reminds me of GnP a bit and also a little Upotte!

Such a cute cast of characters :3

I'll look forward to this and expecting more battles. Nice guns. The battle in this episode was nice too! Nice moves.

HA HA TIME FOR GUNS!

That mock battle was pretty awesome, nice trap by P90 girl.

Looks like there will be other teams that girls compete against, nice! So its something like Upotte and Girls und Panzer, I hope it turns out better than both. (It actually is so far)

It was a mediocre episode. Execution was mediocre, character design was mediocre, story was nothing special except for the setting of the survival club. Perhaps GuP fans would enjoy the series.

That main girl getting excited to enter the school is so cute, especially she's voiced by Yui Makino. OP is so cute. She's shy, but is full of imagination. lol @ how she got into the club. Sawashiro-san's character, who is the senpai and main girl's roommate, appeared at the end after that survival game round. ED is nice.

I don't know which is which voice... I really need the character pics. later. That long and silky hair girl's voice is nice (new seiyuu). Cannot believe that blond is Kayano-san and megane with twintail girl is Saitou-san. And Ui (K-ON)'s seiyuu is that short hair girl?

I like it more than I would.

OP pretty good, both music and animation wise. A decent mix of SoL in the first half and battle in the second half. I kind of like the pastel color scheme but not sure whether it fits well with the gun fight game theme. ED is so denpa - which I like.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

OP and ED were pretty good, but designs were mediocre to say the least.

The soundtrack is good ranging from catchy to pure class, OP is great and the ED is catchy.

Yura is quite the shy one and good lord she should at least fire a few rounds in the battle or run more, fight or flight girl

It's not so good as GuP but I still liked it. OP is good, animation is decent, action is good too. I don't like the ED and preview style much but I clearly see Gainax vibes in the show which is a good thing.

I heard in manga Sonora tried to hit on Yura than she first came in their room. To bad they cut this in anime )))

Just rewatched it subbed. It reconfirmed that this is going to be awesome.


Was the protagonist thinking they 'only drink tea and eat cake'/her getting lured in with cake/tea a reference to/making fun of K-on!, or i'm I just see'ing things?

Nope, pretty sure the entire first part of the episode was just poking fun at K-ON! and other series like that. Which I found doubly amusing, because I really did think it was going to be a K-ON! like series.

I don't dislike K-ON, but I'm glad I was wrong.

The drinking tea and eating cakes reminds me of K-ON and she reminds me of Mugi-chan.

Lol at Yura being lured by cakes.

I'm liking the OP. The background art is nice too. First half of the episode was okay, but the rest of it with the mock battle was awesome. The club members looked really cool :D Yura is lucky to have been found by them, seems like a fun club to be in.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

Pretty nice. Best one from the summer season so far, but that's not saying much with what we saw so far. Nonetheless, it's enjoyable and I'm looking forward to some more gunplay.

Very nice first episode. Funny and very charming. I also can't stop laughing at how politically incorrect this is by American standards. Children playing with guns, and all the AirSoft weapons are replicas of actual guns. Good stuff.

That was fun to watch especially when you play airsoft. Outdoor play is represented pretty well but indoor play is so much different.

Airsoft is fairly popular state side...considering that community would be the last to support gun bans.

Oh I know but showing young children with Airsoft weapons that aren't clearly marked as such and are replicas of actual weapons would have made many special interest groups lose their minds if this was an American show. I think that's silly but it is what it is. That's why it made me laugh.

Also considering the fact that, if the obstacles near their club are anything to go by, there'll probably be a shoot out in a school environment at some point.

Now that certainly wouldn't fly on american television.

I didn't really think it was going to be much, I thought it was going to be another one of those slice of life shows. However, inexplicably, I really liked that first episode. I found it very interesting and intriguing, more than other animes about girls at school and clubs. The episode really kept me entertained and exceeded my expectation :D I'm thinking this may turn out to be one of my better-liked shows this summer season!! :)
