Finally getting around to watching this anime, been meaning to see this for many years now. Cool opening, don't see many similar OPs today.

Very good first episode. The overall ambience and tone of the series has been established rather smoothly. Really digging the art style and OST.  The characters seem to have potential to be explored, very promising. Though to be honest, I do believe that the brown-haired dude is slightly making the show less mature than it could, but oh well.

I like how blurry the plot is so far, the only thing I could predict is that (spoilers just in case I end up being right):
It would be a bummer if I end up being right, shows that make you feel like you have no idea how it could turn out are the best. Especially Texhnolyze and Monster.

Looking forward to this, seems like it would be a very good show. So far I give this stand alone episode a strong 8.1/10.

Сейчас такое аниме увидеть трудно. Приятная ностальгия.

Just me thinking on my own i don't know that this was the point of the show lol but Hige says "Pride doesn't count for much if you're dead" which seems at odds with what is commonly Japanese Bushido stuff. Not pretending to be cultural analyst just the pop culture idea of how we know it.

Anyway, I wonder if the show is some kind of restatement of those old Bushido ideas for Japan. That either Hige is right and that Pride is not so important to throw your life away for or Kiba is true warrior fashion "we as culture should regain our Prides even at a great cost". Sorta statement on the affairs at the time.

Okay, Yoko Kanno does not disappoint, not sure about much else with the first episode.

I've been wanting to watch this series forever and now I am so glad I did.
What a great start!
The setting is definitely a harsh cold apocalyptic world with humanity on the out. I can't wait to learn more about it and the characters along the way...
