Paul said: Wow this was horrible. The cast makes me want to watch but everything else is ugh. The mecha's also look like shit. This. Felt like the episode was one hour long =.= |

| This show seems like a gigantic cluster fuck of an identity crisis. |
Paul said: The mecha's also look like shit. I suppose you don't like flatten CGI technique used for animation. From the viewpoint of design those mechs look pretty ok, But they would propably look awesome if they were hand-drawn |

| Pretty awesome anime. |
| The part where he was crying and laughing was pretty sad. |
| The episode was good...I think its gonna get better... |

| Maybe it's just the names but I'm seriously getting Sengoku Basara vibes from this. Interesting how they're using the names of historical figures and blending European and Feudal Japanese eras together. I'm not really into mechas, but this looks pretty awesome. |
 |
| Top-notch 10/10 for the music... not sure about anything else yet. This anime reminds me of Escaflowne (for a lot of reasons). It had a pretty good start, though I dislike the use of historical figures. |
  |
| Kind of boring for me. Will watch the next few episodes to see if it gets better. |
 |
| hmm, idk why, but for some reason i have high expectations >.> I've never been a fan of the CGI mechs etc. so meh to that, much rather drawn, but i'll watch more 3/5 for that |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
| Damn, mecha/fantasy with great animation and voice acting, and a huge cast of characters...? Consider me thrilled as shit. I've already got huge expectations for this series. I'm just starting my anime for the season, and after the first episode I'm pretty sure this will at the least be in my top 3 this season, if not my favorite. jimbob1141 said: Have to agree though, this is a bit of a minus for me as well. Usually anyway, but for some reason they didn't seem too out of place here... which is normally my issue. It seemed to fit decently enough though.I've never been a fan of the CGI mechs etc. so meh to that, much rather drawn, but i'll watch more |

| Okay to start we have the deaths of the actual Nobunaga and Jeanne D'Arc, then we get swept into some sort of alternate dimension with many of the world's historical figures and warriors and you add in sci fi and mecha to warring japan. I'm all for crazy new takes on old stories so count me in. |
 |
alexpte said: Mechs in a feudal Japanese and medieval European yet futuristic setting? Okay I'm hooked. |
| That was pretty good, interesting world as well. Looking forward to the rest! |
| May this be glorious evermore. Various sized mechs and technology mash-up? Kawamori you are golden. |
| That was fucking ridiculous, but I love it! Historical theme? +1. Historical with Oda Nobunaga? +2. Men with huge goal/dream? +3. The OST was fucking great. What's with these OST, this and Nobunagun, they both have awesome OST. "Zehimonashi"/"It was inevitable". By the way wtf is with this and Buddy Complex episode 2 title, one is The Lover and another one is Nice Coupling, and they're both mecha anime. ~.~ Edit: And I love Miyano Mamoru as Oda Nobunaga, I wasn't a huge fan of his but damn that was some great voice acting!!! Vooo said: Galilei Donna all over again? Hopefully it is not as bad. I was very uninterested up until the end. What's up with the douche bags that get mad about our negative opinions on this anime? Go F yourselves and crawl out your A holes. Respect other peoples opinions and right to post. Are you another one that feels obligated to finish any short series you started, even if it's not interesting? By the way, when you're asking another to respect other's opinion, you yourself shouldn't be using "fuck yourself" or "your ass hole", that will make you look like nothing but a hypocrite. |

| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Probably a show I won't continue: Pros: - Really cool Mecha designs, the CGI didn't look bad. - Somewhat serious tone and plot Cons: - character designs look ridiculous. the bi-shounen styles put me off - colors are too saturated for me - I don't really care about the story so far, would only watch for cool battles - setting is too weird for me |
| I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning, help me to breathe. |
| I think I am going to like this a lot. It's historical with some Mecha elements and it's got 3 of my favourite seiyu's Takahiro Sakurai, Mamoru Miyano, and Yuki Kaji. Oh and how can I forget Tomokazu Sugita so make that 4 of my favourite seiyus. At first, by the title alone, I thought this was going to be a comedy, but when I actually watched the episode and saw the tarot cards I understood the fool was just referring to the 0 tarot card. So hopefully this will be 22 episodes long that way it matches the tarot theme it has already associated itself with. |
| I love how japanese will just never get tired of using Sengoku themes in their works, it's like the best thing about them. Anyways, this seems like it will be a fun ride. Mirorin said: That makes me love it even more!Reminds me of Sengoku Basara, and oddly Brave 10 as well. |

| What is this? The ultimate mecha japanese otaku fantasy? Featured with blonde girls, historic figures glorified and bishi-ized, mechas anachronism, and others? |
| "Justice Never Dies!" - Kenji Endou, 20th century Boys |
| 4/5 Since there Kawamori, the script and the mecha are "almost" identical to those seen in Aquarion. Not bad, although I love all the most massive in the style of certain parts. Too many high-sounding names, give me a little trouble, it seems a great meatloaf! Character design is also reminiscent of the characters of the anime series Aquarion! Animations, scenarios and good colors. Current rating of 6/10! |
 |
| This was a pretty good start for the airing season for it is pretty good only have seen Hamatora though with episode 1 out of the 2 I dont know which one like more at this point |
 |
| Oda Nobunaga in this anime looks like similar to Takuto in Star Driver haha :) I will definitely keep watching it to the end. |
 |
| History got butchered again. Together with threesome of main heroes annoying as hell (well, foursome cause DaVinci counts too). And mecha genre, worst combination. This was pain to watch. Instadrop. |
| This episode...I honestly almost dropped it. actually, i did drop it..for a bit. i really, really just didn't like the girl when she was in the mecha. sorry, but i'm not watching this for excessive fan service. because that's all Je'an looked like to me, a girl whose been thrown in just for fan service. Also, i was a bit skeptical about nobunaga. I wasn't too sure if I liked him yet. but surly I didn't hate him either. Lastly, the mecha's....why didn't I realize that there would be mechas here? I just didn't like the fact that they were using mechas, in what looked like the sengoku period.(ok I also just hate mecha's) The other characters were fine to me. but we will see |
| I actually find this quite interesting although kinda confusing.. Hope the confusion will be explained in the next episodes. But from this ep 1 I'll definitely watch the 2nd ep! |
 |
| Nice ep. Not sure what's with the attention spans of a lot of the posters in this thread. |
| Quite nice. At first , it's like nothing to me XD But then, woah. Kinda interesting :D |
 - barely alive - |
| What an amazing start. Liking Nobunaga's character so far, got goosebumps when he cried on the battlefield. Kawamori's mecha desigs and script hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng 4/5 |
הלב שלי כבר מת |
| I'm not really a big fan of mecha but historical setting always caught my eye. The art and animation are fine.. characters look interesting. I like the soundtracks quite catchy. Definitely a good first episode. |
| trashy EP not a single interest was had.. shit better get better soon... so many fucking fail anime nowadays it's not even laughable anymore.. |
 |
| I'm really not sure what I'm actually watching, it raises various questions but I really have no clue what I just saw actually... Combining various concepts of old and new together, well I don't know but we'll see what this anime will offer us for a story! |
 |
| Not Bad |
 |
| A bunch of historical figues all in the same time but in the future but not the future at the same time. What a hard thing to describe. I wonder where it'll go. |
| This is such a bizarre mix. I'm not an expert at history but I know a lot of names thrown around don't belong to the same time period lol Wasn't expecting this to suddenly have mechas. Wtf am I watching? |
 |
| LOL mechas in a historical/medieval setting? How foolish, just like our main character. However, I'm all for these, uh, unique concepts haha. Let's see where this goes. |
