Awesome episode! Wonderful pace and just funny as hell :D right combination of action, story telling and slight ecchi humor :D

The ending introducing: Death the Kid was also quite funny, seems these couple episodes are introductions to each character we'll be seeing in this Anime, and quite awesomely done as well!

Lets see what's next!

Interesting. I'm hoping we'll be seeing many more witches from now on ;)

Already there is a pretty big twist with one of the witches being a little kid. I hope there is more surprises in store. I loved Tsubaki but Black Star was super obnoxious. Lot's of room for growth, but out of all the characters introduced so far he is the most stereotypical. I'm really digging this prologue arc. It's rare that a show takes the time to fully introduce its main cast like this.
Let this be our little secret, no needs to know we're feeling HIGHER AND HIGHER AND HIGHER!

I like Tsubaki but Black Star is somewhat annoying. Also nice reference/tribute to Al Capone.

Background music during the fight between Black Star and Mifune was pretty cool.

Black Star is really cocky and way overconfident but surprisingly he is still so adorable. And that many swords of Mifune is cool too. Angela is cute. Can't stop laughing when she hit Black Star with the sword in his forhead.

Death the Kid! Man, my fave char.

Haha that was pretty awesome! :D

The next episode should be pretty damn good. Death the Kid, I heard a lot of good things about this dude. Looking forward to see whats all the hype about.

I think if I was Tsubaki I would have a hard time putting up with Black Star. I recognized Monica Rial's voice right away. =P She has such a cute voice ^_^
When Death the Kid appeared I think I squealed internally. I love Todd Haberkorn so much T_T

It'd be better if Black Star stayed in cool assassin mode all the time lol. He's so loud.

I really enjoyed this episode.
I think Black Star shouldve kept the Kishin Eggs though considering he beat the guy who beat the Alcapone crew ... being Mifune.

Death the Kid looks like a great character.

Black Star is so annoying, good for when Tsubaki throws a shuriken at him .-. I'm just glad he listened to her in the end though

I honestly don't really know what to think of this. I dislike Maka's voice and I also don't really like Tsubaki's but I really can't stand the voices of Black Star and Soul. Am I the only one? This makes the character of Black Star even worse, and I already disliked him very much in the manga (what an annoying brat).
Also, I don't like the animated parts - for example when they showed the school. Looks cheap and awful in my opinion. It also seems that they are trying to be funny all the time while they really aren't. I noticed that in the manga too but it seemed much less bad. I expected a lot more of this show, it has a lot of potential, though. I hope it will get better.

Damn, this whole episode is just 1 awesome fight! Incredible animation + OST combo!

Tsubaki seems to be a multipurpose ninja weapon, which perfectly matches with BlackStar's skill as an assassin, but their personality is way more different. His 'YAHOOO!!!' is pretty annoying.

This was a great episode if you ask me~ Black Star's huge ego screwing things up for him and Tsubaki along with his antics turned out to be more funny than annoying to me and that fight scene against Mifune was really good when he started taking things seriously.

They had the easiest opportunity to get a hundred souls but he passed on it because of how effortless it'd be. It's kind of a waste but I have to appreciate his principles.

Death the Kid's up next~

Quite a weird and surreal anime. I got the hunting "Evil guys the souls of whom turn into Kishin Eggs" part but not why they go after the witches (so all witches are fair game, good and bad, young and old? really?). Is the 100th soul required to form a Death Scythe meant to be potentially innocent for, er, reasons?

By the way, what's up with that grotesque Moon and Sun? Do people in this city (country? world? realm?) actually see them that way or are they drawn like horror caricatures just for the audience? Before picking this up I read it was similar to Noragami but I see no similarities (except the "people who turn into weapons" bit, but that's it). This looks like a horror / supernatural parody, specifically a parody of the Shinigami subgenre. The art is weird as well, but it does not really bother me; I think I can get used to it.

Watching it later in time, its animation and art style not only hold up to todays standard, but sometimes beats it. Not a fan of Black Star, but the rest of the cast is not just lovable, but lovable within the first few episodes. Its otherwise a standard Shonen with a massive mid game swing and unique feeling and style.

This was okay but some parts did feel kinda dumb lol I also decided to watch the dubbed version for this episode since the voice acting in the last episode felt kinda off, and even now it still does. It's very hit or miss personally

Okay, I'll be real, this wasn't nearly as strong as the first episode. It wasn't exactly bad, but it lacked the exciting moments the first had. I can't say Black Star is my favorite character.
