| I really loved the first episode. Really did. The characters are lovable and interesting to all ends. I've been on such a Mortal Kombat and fighting game binge as of late, so I'm super hyped for this, and I cannot wait for more. |
| Well it was wild. I'll give it that. We got an intro to some of the characters in the tournament. But its left me wondering what came first, tower of god or god of high school. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Pretty decent. Looking a lot better than TOG. That announcer’s nose rivaling Kaiji’s though. |

| Loved it, laughed a lot, I'm definitely gonna watch this this season PD: It's a little bit weird that the opening and ending are in English but I get it's MANHWA Edit: don't compare this with Tower of God just because is a manhwa |
| y'all should watch haibane renmei |
| A good first episode. The directing actually surprised me a bit, though the plot is pretty straight forward. Did feel a bit rushed, situationally. Ofc, the animation is buttery but that's common with a first episode. Let's see how it holds up. I'm one of the people that haven't read the manhwa/only read a portion of it so i'm going in blind and not really expecting anything more than some entertaining fights. Those that did read it said that this season will be extremely rushed since it has a lot to adapt but only time will tell. |
| Pretty entertaining episode, and I like how they just pull the characters in from the get go. They pulled off a perfect hook this episode. |
| Well damn, this was pretty good. Made me laugh a couple times and the animation is pretty good too, the OP tho destroyed my eyes and ears, will skip that forever. Didn't like the red noses and ears, reminded me too much of QUALITY tumblr art. |
Marinate1016 said: That opening is a fucking bangerrr, feels like a Martin Garrix song The future is certainly bright for manhwa with this and ToG. This first episode was straight fire. Crazy good animation, over the top action and testosterone everywhere The ED may be even better than the OP. Love that vibe. Honestly, manhwa is capable of introducing a new flare in anime. When I first started watching anime, only seeing a handful of martial arts type anime was big disappointment for me. This was so much more euphoric for me because of that. And goddamn the animation was swift, smooth and creative. |
| This was pleasant surprise. While I am webtoon reader I had a little expectations of it, but the episode was very enjoyable. I felt weird about how they handled the beginning of stroy. Well, I think it gonna turn out fine. At least the animation was pretty good and I have some hopes for series as a whole. |
| Amazing first episode. Can't wait to see more! The OP&ED are so awesome, love them! |

| I read about 50 chapters of the webtoon, but aside from it being a little rushed narratively speaking, it had amazing animation! This anime will be outstanding on the technical note. |
 |
| Damn that felt like such a short episode |

Imagine seeing boku no hero academia episode 1 and saying you don't want to experience the rest of anime/manga I would be judgemental like I am at the moment, not gonna lie. It is common sense actually, if you find a certain mediums most praised works decent at most then maybe they aren't meant for you or they aren't up to your standards. At least the first few suggestions someone gets when starting to anime/manga is usually really good. Regardless, I'm not a close minded person -hopefully-. I would be more than happy to give a chance to your must read/great webtoons. Who knows, maybe you can open a whole new medium for me. |
| I’m shocked this is rated so high. I found it underwhelming. With the humor liken to Gin Tama I was expecting a bit more. CR sure has flown the GOH banner and waved it proudly. Typical MAPPA animation that reminded me of Ushio & Tora which I suffered through and Listeners which I dropped after episode 4, I was very unimpressed. Stereotype fight scenes and cliche goofy comedy thrown in. I did like when Mira Yu faceplanted the sign. That had me LOL but not much more. I plan on going back and reading everyone’s posts thus far to try and figure out the scores it has been given. This will certainly be a 3 and drop/keep for me. I’m clearly leaning towards dropping. |
| That was quite a spectacle. Was lots of fun. Looking forward to more. |
| Generic AF. Animation is great but the choreography is utter garbage. Way too edgy and try-hard. Specifically trying hard to be cool. Felt like a lot of moments were supposed to be give reactions like "Omg wow!" but they all fell flat because they tried too hard. A lot of characters also look more similar than even normal anime lol. CR product placement also felt really out of place. But they threw a lot of money into this so of course that would be a thing. Edit: also the comedy was pure garbage. I guess this is for middle schoolers? I assume even High School kids would be past this kind of comedy |

I'm not surprised that this better received than Tower of God so far to make a comparison. There's not much to think about here, i went in expecting great choreography, good fights, enjoyable characters with their own fighting style and sakuga. Just what i got, i can't complain. I expected this to be rated fairly high around the 8.00 mark but this is even more than i thought, this very much appeals to the casual watcher. |
| I went in to this expecting to dislike it, since fighting shounen isn't really my favorite, but I was pleasantly surprised. I liked this episode enough to at least want to stay on the train for the next few stops! It doesn't hurt that this clearly was a step up in quality from ToG. |
| Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day! |
| This is the strongest pilot I have seen in a long time. Literally just concrete enjoyment right away. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| Infinitely better than the shitshow Tower of God was. That grandma miniarc was hilarious. But I feel the show will focus only on it's childish premise. But I'll give it a chance considering the good direction and the fact it has the potential of being the most well produced show of 2020 |
 |
| all the characters ears and noses are gonna bother the hell outta me. like they all have a cold or something i like what i see though |

Tower of God I purposely didn’t touch TOG because of the pre-release hype and the trailers were blasé for me. I will watch at least a few more episodes however there have been main stream popular anime I just didn’t like all that much too. I suppose everyone has their own tastes in the end. Hopefully GoHS will get better and better for me. |
| Lmao... Haven't even read much into GoHS manhwa but I don't think I want too anymore. This is just to good of an adaptation from what I've read. I'll stick with Park's vision of the series. |
MGrid said: It's perfectly fine even now, anyway.MegamiRem said: Reviving a character for a million time is perfectly fine lmao? and Yelling your lungs out makes u op?and these are not even the worst of the story. DB at least knew what it was. It stayed faitful to itself from the begining till end. Goh on the other hand went from martial arts, to fucking god powers. If it stayed where it started we could actually argue here. But Goh literally got worse and worse after the timeskip. It peaked with Ragnarok and then just died. It is literally a dead story right now. You can love it as much as you want, but it should've stayed in its lane. It tried to be something it was never supposed to be and ruined the story completely. Author reseting shit tells you something in itself lmao. |

| great first episode. was skeptical at first because of the whole nose thing but characters look interesting, their design too (except noses). Story so far doesn't seem that unique or different, and the music is not that good so far, but again, this 1st episode was super entertaining. hope next week entertains the same way or even more. Edit: Hope one day we get "The Breaker" animated by some dope studio. |

| Good first ep with a nice batttle royale fight scene to kick it off. Looking forward to this show! |
| Here we go again... |
| well, that was a fine first episode. Good enough to watch a few more and maybe even finish it. |
 |
| Wow... So much action happend in few minutes I needed to stop sometimes through to process what was going on. Loved the old lady projected sad story, made me laugh a little already. I think this won't disappoint us, if the action keeps being consistent through out the show. |

| Honestly, if I didn’t know that this is a Japanese adaptation of the Korean Manhwa that the Americans paid for, then I would think that this is a perfectly adapted martial shonen with a somewhat specific art design. The entertainment is great and honestly, this is one of the best MA animations I've seen in recent years, but the character design looks too generic and simple for me. But I will survive, at least if the show continues to maintain such a pace and level. |
