| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The first (and second) episodes looked promising! I got hooked by both the first action scene (with the snowmobile) and the story. I hope they will keep this pace! |
| Just got out of the premiere at Anime Expo. I was so not expecting them to show the second episode as well! I loved the mood and atmosphere of the show. Twelve was a lot less annoying than I thought he would be. |

| Sounds interesting. Shame this will be only 11 episodes. But given the director and composer, I have high expectations for this. And the main character seems be interesting too. |
 |
| Just watched it at Japan Expo yesterday, it was quite good ;) |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| That opening tho'. This show is gonna be an odd pair to Watanabe's other work in progress Space Dandy. Visually, both shows are stunning. |
 I REMEMBER TOUCH. PICTURES CAME WITH TOUCH. A PAINTER IN MY MIND. |
| Wow. You guys are quick. Probably what's funny is we all were either in Video 1 or Video 4 viewing rooms haha. I love how they named the second episode "Bonus Message." Personally, this is quite unique and interesting. Very different and the protagonist being terrorist is making me quite hyped for Episode 3. I really liked Kumi or Twelve. He's that cool and funny kid yet he can be so serious. Can't wait for more! Too bad we have to wait longer since we already saw Episode 1 and 2 haha. |

| Please stop asking where to watch this show |
|
| Overall episode was great with a decent ED song as well. Good prologue with direction. |
|
| Amazing. Now I only hope that they can keep up this quality for the whole series. All the music is superb. |
| Easily the best/most promising start out of all the summer anime that aired so far.Hopefully it'll stay that way throughout it's run. The snowmobile scene was astonishing  Animation looks top notch. Seeing that building blow up was magnificent.  Everything in this seems to point to possible masterpiece I hope it doesn't fail me. Hope Watanabe doesn't fuck this up,considering all of his recent works have been shit lately,but clearly not this one (so far).Though I really hope this doesn't disappoint and turn out terrible. |

| Amazing first episode, I'm hooked! I really like how they handle all the uneasiness and they animation is refreshing. I also like how Saito Soma voiced his character. :) |
| That was pretty good. Now that girl chose to be an accomplice so she wouldn't die. Can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| That was pretty action packed! That snowmobile action and the protective gear! The main characters being the one to do the terrorist attack! Lisa becoming an accomplice, the institution and the thing they took! A good and interesting start! |
 |
| The last show to air its first episode, and that was definitely the best (at least out of the shows Im watching this season). The mystery is already killing me. Lisa should make for an interesting accomplice. Saying stuff like "I wish everyone would disappear," so hopefully she isnt a completely lame character. A pretty good OP too. |
~my list
| It's just AMAZING!!!! |
| Nice first episode through out the episode it kept me on the edge of my seat. Both of the 2 MC seems very interesting. 12 with a smile like on a hot summers day and 9 with eyes like ice. It will be interesting to see what happens from here with that girl, who is now an accomplice. |
| wow this was a pretty good episode cant wait for more and man the op and ed just amazing |
| Damn...that quality.This is going to be an epic ride.Music is excellent. |
 |
| holy crap this one was really good this one will be my top bait of this season for now. looks extremely promising the good part with the girl protagonist is that she looks weeks but is actually very strong we need more of those people |
 |
| Honestly, I decided to watch this anime on a whim...and damn, I'm sure glad I did. The topic of this series is not one that I'm particularly attracted to. However, damn. This first episode was really great. Mysterious lead characters, each of which has an interesting back story that I want to know more about, gorgeous animation, a soundtrack to die for. The overall atmosphere of this first episode was "chilling." It sent a chill down my spine just watching this. I would have to agree that this had one of the best opening episodes of any anime I'm watching this season. The only other first episode I liked was Ao Haru Ride...which is a COMPLETELY different genre altogether. Color me impressed. |
| Well that was just fantastic! Great first episode. The snowmobile part felt like game when it was in first person. The animation reminds me of Coppelion. My prediction was way off. I thought these three kids was the last people who survived the terrorist attack. Not the ones who started it. Twelve and nine are pretty damn cool. Wonder what's up with Mishima. Also love her saying for those two. Can't wait for the next episode. 5/5. |

| Strong start, beautiful music, very likable characters and solid animation. This will be one of the best, if not THE best of this season. Excited! |
| Best opening music this season!! |
| Dat quality and music tho. The OP and ED both gave me goosebumbs. I just love both Yuuki Ozaki and Aimer. |
| Yeah that was pretty solid |
 |
| Amazing. Will this show be about terrorism? Identity? Existence? I'm hoping for all 3 woven together :) This show completely shits on all the googly eyed cheesy crap that saturates the market. |
| The most promising so far with cool mcs. |
| Honestly I was starting to lose faith in Watanabe as a director, but man this was great on all levels. Hopefully it can maintain this level of quality throughout. |
| AOTY right there. |
 |
| Great start. Groaned at the whole "experimental children" backstory because it's such an overplayed trope in games/shows with serious storylines. The story had better not revolve around that. |

| Very good start looking forward to how everything develops! Hope it keeps this level in story. |
| THE HYPE IS REAL! I was really looking forward to this and I was not disappointed. The animation is incredible, the characters and story seem interesting and the OP/ED were great. This was probably my favourite opening episode this season (those first 3 minutes really suck you in) Can't wait for next week. 5/5 |
| This is the AOTFY |
 |
| Great start, and goddamn Lisa is hot as hell. |
| Really good for a first episode. I can't quite tell how it's going to be like yet though. Characterwise I mean. I wanna know the motive but I think we'll get that next episode. Hopefully they explain things thoroughly in the future though, I don't just want 2 teens outsmarting the entire city without seeing how they do it. Preferably nearly failing at some parts too, maybe ACTUALLY failing at some point too, that could be cool. Very promising though, among my favorites this season. Here's hoping the characters get good development and backdrop and have a good reason for doing these things. |
| Promising start to the series! I'm curious as to what their motives could be... |

Strawhat_Pirate said: Great start. Groaned at the whole "experimental children" backstory because god is that so overplayed. The story better not revolve around that. yeah tbh the pv's made it seem like that was the backstory behind their terrorist activity. The whole "We're not supposed to exist" thing gave it away. I think the important thing is that they put that backstory to good use. With only 11 episodes, it's only common sense that the show will revolve around these 3 MC's as well as that (former?) detective. I'm taking a stab at the dark here, but I'm fairly sure the show will revolve around the identity/existential crises of the two boys and the girl. While the boys are a product of human experimentation and the girl a naturally born human (or so it seems), to see the similarities of their plight will be an interesting exploration into humanity and existence. Wolfiexe said: Promising start to the series! I'm curious as to what their motives could be... "fuck the world we aren't supposed to exist in" or "Let the mark of our existence be known" Come to mind at first. It's a very simple sentiment, but I think it's a very human one. |

| That was really good! Easily Top3 first eps of the season ^^ DAT ANIMATION!! The infiltration and jet skiing on the snow scene had amazingly fluid animation. The OP was pretty nice too. Arata and Hisami are awesome characters. Causing chaos in the world XD I wonder what their motives are? Loving the contrast between them. With how Toji is hot as the sun and Arata is cold as ice. I'm liking Hisami more for now. His carefree nature is so much fun XD How he just jumped into the pool like that XD I'm sure the detective will be one of the awesome characters in this series :D I already like him with how he took the video seriously. He's gonna be a tough opponent ^^ Good stuff. lived up to my hype :) |
