| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I'm not exactly thrilled by this episode. I'm interested to see where this show is going, but it's slow and the character designs don't really appeal me. Hope it gets better in the following episodes. |
| The first half of this episode was really good and then the second was really slow and vague. Hopefully that won't happen for the rest of the series because the storyline seems interesting. |
| The story seems interesting but the animation is disappointing. Also I felt that it's not edited properly some scenes looked as if they're cut 1 or 2 seconds too early. |
     |
| yup the animation seems rather old, and the pace is slow, especially in 2nd half. |
| Well I actually liked it, sure it is slow but interested to see where it is going |
Shameless plug signature The Shorts Club  |

| I liked the character design, it's different. Liked this episode too. Let's see how it progresses. P.S. Loved the reference to NGE when the catastrophe occurred. :p |
 |
| kinda confused a lil lol |
"I am the bone of my sword, Steel is my body and Fire is my blood, I have created over a thousand blades, Unknown to Death, Nor known to Life, Have withstood pain to create many weapons, Yet, those hands will never hold anything, So as I pray, unlimited blade works" |
| hahahaha i'm so confused, this is such a weird anime but definitely intriguing.. |
| same ting here; nothing turns me on here. Didn't get a thing either |
 |
| It was okey the setting looks okey but I don't feel it, the atmosphere is rather boring.... and to be honest I doubt that will change... |
 |
| It was interesting enough I guess, I'd wanted to see it for a while and expected more but hopefully it'll get better. The start was more enjoyable than the last half but I guess we'll see what direction it's headed. I found the gothic looking art style intriguing. I liked that it looked different. |
 |
| Damn this first episode was good, it may not seem like it in the first 5 minates as it's kinda confusing about what's going on but it gets real good very fast as it just reels you in with it's distinct characters designs and setting, a must watch. |
| "Nothing is sweeter than your smile" |
| Gonna watch it, but it's confusing. |
 |
| Mysterious series with a dark side of the characters probably revealed later on. Watching this in dub right now. Damn it |
 |
| Artwork/animation is pretty poor for 2003 but gonna see how the story goes, has promise. Why do they all have pouty lips? Meados said: P.S. Loved the reference to NGE when the catastrophe occurred. :p Yeah :) up til around then I worried it was just going to be an imitation, but then the plot jumped on elsewhere. |
| The op is nice + mysterious ep ,they looks like vampires. |
 |
| I liked the start, but this is definitely not something for everyday. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| This wasn't too bad, although the character designs don't really appeal to me. |
| It's fascinating how the dub creates an entirely different atmosphere than the sub in this one. I've just watched both and dub is far superior, sounds more emotional and mysterious Sticking with the dub 100% |
koji_K said: I know you asked this years ago, so I'm kind of answering for the sake of posterity... Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E flat "Emperor", Op. 73 - Adagio.Anyone know what the classical music piece played in the intro is, sounds like Bach maybe? Not the intro credits song but the song the guy plays on the record player. |
| Stumbled on this one kinda randomly, it was either from hitting the random button on an anime site or I found it accidentally while looking for something else, but after reading the synopsis and seeing the cool key visual, I knew I had to check this one out, it just seemed like such a metal concept, and so far I’m liking it a lot. I’ll admit the art style is a bit rough, but I don’t dislike it, it’s very unique, I think it’ll grow on me as the show progresses, and I’ll be honest, the most of what I know about Gilgamesh is what Fate has taught me, I doubt it’s that accurate lol, but the connection to him is very interesting, and the whole opening act before the world went to shit was very very cool, it’s really got me curious what exactly happened to cause that, or what Heaven’s Gate even is. But the majority of the episode was dedicated to who I’m assuming are the main characters, Tatsumi and Kiyoko, as they ran from thugs they owe money to for one reason or another. I knew the thugs wouldn’t make it past the end of this episode, especially when there was a weird power that attacked them once, but after the siblings found refuge with those edgy fellas, they were done lol, not sure if they just found the good guys or not but they helped for now at least. A bit of a slow opening but I really liked it, it set the mood well with the dark and rainy atmosphere, as well as the skyscrapers collapsing, definitely fitting for the time this came out in, being Fall 2003, and speaking of 2003, the early 2000s vibes were incredibly strong, and that’s a vibe I really like lol. And damn the song at the end slapped, really reminds me of the main battle theme from Persona 3 which wouldn’t come out till 2006, it was damn good. And I guess I better strap myself in for this one, it’s gonna be two cours of edgy goodness, hopefully it stays interesting. |
