| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Just finished watching the pre air episode. And hmm, it was fun so far. I like this girl quite a bit:  Her friends seems cool as well. It was alright overall. Reminded me of C3 in a few ways. That's quite a lot of guns also including some badass ones. The action was alright I suppose. They sure didn't waste any time at all. Mission one complete but I'm curious to see how the future missions will be like. Mod Edit: Modified title as series name was updated. |

| Great first episode! It pre-aired on Nico Nico. Ootori buchou is so cool, pulling out her Desert Eagles on the train, then the station cops take her away, too funny. And Momoka is a natural! Rookie, not! Helicopter in the onsen, I love it. I hope this sticks to being girls having fun in the survival game club and doesn't go drama on us like C3-bu foisted on us. |

| I just hope it remains to be as comedic:3 |
| Jesus can walk on water. Cucumbers are 96% water. I can walk on cucumbers. I'm 96% Jesus. |
| First episode is funny. Momoka has spunk. I love the comedy. I hope the series remains comedic. Also I hope this will be better than another survival game anime that I know and dropped. |

| I think that it is completely fair to compare this to Stella Jo-Gakuin C3-bu. But from looking at the Japanese Wikipedia articles for each series, they are of completely different genres (ジャンル): Stella Jo-Gakuin C3-bu --- "survival game" (サバゲー) Sabagebu! さばげぶっ! --- "gag" / "school" If you desire a very accurate depiction of a Survival Game club in a private girl's school, then C3-bu is perfect for you. On the other hand, Sabagebu was very funny throughout the episode. I think that C3-bu is really, really good for those people who are heavily into airsoft guns. Apparently, this is a sport which is quite popular in Japan but not so much in other countries. Paintball is the obvious competitor. I was not able to keep up my interest in C3-bu beyond the first episode, but I have no criticism of the series. On the other hand, I look forward to more crazy gags in Episode 2 of Sabagebu! |
| Good start I even liked the changes they made to the manga's storyline. |
 |
| Already better than c3-bu <3 The Bleach anime character designer worked on this huh? :O so that's why it's so good ;) |
 |
| that was pretty stupid. not that I didn't expect this...as usual looking at the cover and synopsis would've been enough to judge this lol |

| That was pretty bizarre! Liking it though. The old man with his imaginary Karate, it seemed pretty sad that I had to laugh. A survival game club eh? All the members are weird. First time seeing a club form being handed in like that xD A shop filled with guns, an arena and a bath! The game was pretty good with their imagination! The store manager!!! |
 |
| well this was.. interesting. some jokes were good, some not so much, and the whole concept itself seems pretty interesting. let's see how it continues.. oh and MAL really should change its status to "airing". |
 |
| Guns everywhere! Not bad. It was pretty funny. That purple haired girl seems to be a real gun fanatic. I had a few laughs. Won't take this anime to seriously. Seems like something to watch for fun. Also is the gun shop manger the one who also narrate? If so that's funny. |
 |
| I love this anime, I got no complaints with it. It's just doing everything right, and if it keeps going like this then I'm going to have a new favorite anime that I can watch over and over again! Theres so many things that could go wrong but I can't wait to see what this has in store for us. |
| Lol that boob shot. This was good for a first episode. Can't wait to watch the next one. |
 |
| This was a bit weird but definitely not bad. Reminded me a bit of D-Frag! and C3 which I enjoyed quite a bit. The comedy also wasn't bad at all, looking forward to the next episodes. |
 |
| So far a silly comedy that does not try to be anything else. I like that. |
| TBH the animation and art felt outdated, but the comedy, illusion action scenes, and characters are not bad :D. I have this Stella C3 feel to it, so I hoping things will get good as I progress through. |
| Cute first episode. :3 If a lot of people are saying that this anime is going down the same road as Stella Jogakuin Koutou-ka C³-bu, then maybe it'll be as good as Upotte! ? xD Well, the first episode was alright: Some funny comedy scenes, and some awesome gun/action scenes. :3 Aired more earlier than I expected...that's cool! xD So far, I like Momoka. She's a cute, normal looking character, while Miou is an cool looking character, and Maya is a sexy looking girl. xD Good cast, everyone has there share of weird or cool personality. :3 |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| A very funny first episode Is it just me or does the Shop owner who also seems to be the narrator look like Arnold Schwarzenegger? It just has to be, because at the end of the episode he says Ah'll be back. Hope they manage to entertain us like this for the rest of the Anime. |
| My reactions to the episode: So, cute girls with cute guns? I should be watching Gunslinger Girl instead of this slapstick fluff. Oh, they are so mean to her since the chick magnet was stuck to her instead, great school we have here, and in fact if you're going to try so hard to make me sympathize with this nobody I'd actually like it if this DOES become "edgy" my dear narrator. As in: I want blood! You're already trying to be dramatic, just go all the way. BTW how is Miou allowed to carry a gun and military equipment to school? Her being popular doesn't excuse a thing. NVM, Miou PUNCH THEM JoJo style! No? A stupid lecture?! Well at least MC got her revenge, I'm satisfied. Then another slapstick scene also used as plot advancement, brilliant. This feels like 4/10 for now, just another mediocre SoL cute girl comedy with no value or substance. Never mind, we got to the otakuservice: cosplaying, fetish outfit, juggly puffs, corsets, legshots, all check! 3/10 They're using real guns, they shoot to kill? Wait, no, "it's in their minds", oh yeah it's just in their minds that THEY CAN DIE FROM A SINGLE SHOT! That is totally not a traumatic experience for any human being. Wait, the blood is there? They're dead?! They even have holes and kool-aid is coming out from both sides. Well, thanks for the blood, but it tastes like ketchup, not iron. What are they bathing in? Rust? I get the aesthetic, but still. I'm expecting shipping people, don't disappoint. 2/10 Conclusion: Me: This isn't my type of thing at all and whatever potential you had, you ruined it. Narrator: Dear viewers! This is the style of the anime is going to take for its duration. Me: Well thanks for making that clear, I like honesty, you're outright saying you won't be having any plot twists or interesting developments. Narr: So don't complain and say "This isn't a survival game".... Me: I didn't expect it to be, but why did you have to mimic like it's the real thing with all the bullet trails, blood and bullet holes? Narr: ... or "At least pretend to be serious about survival games!" Me: You said this is the style that will persist, and it's not serious. Narr: Got it? Me: Yes, this something I wouldn't watch or continue watching, I got it and thank for your modesty. Narr: Then, that's all for this week! Ah, I'll be back. Me: I won't. Have fun people. PS: I've shot my fair share of pellets and I even have an airsoft rifle, can't speak for the real thing, this is now how it feels like handling a gun. Do you gun porn right please if you're going to use it as your main premise. EDIT: If you didn't really like the style or hope this gets better, just go re-/watch Black Lagoon. If you want something humorless and serious with a similar premise Gunslinger Girl is even better as a drama. |

| Good opening song and fitting for an action/comedy show. :) Momoka's character is surprisingly awesome! She's not much of an "average good girl." Liked how she took her revenge on those 2 bully girls soon after! That "Survive this, B!tch" place was fun! Loved that little sniper wargame. Damn. Momoka is already a pro; taking down Maya by aiming at those knockers. XD Miou sacrificing herself to pave way for Momoka to deal the final attack was awesome! First Summer anime series to air has an entertaining setting. Looking forward to the next episode. (^^) |
 |
| Really funny first episode, going to be looking froward to this. The characters seem great too. |
| It was funny, some of the characters aren't that bad.I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the season. |
The higher I get , The lower I'll sink. |
| Interesting episode, I must say. Art is a bit meh, but I love the comedy. Hoping to see more of this! |
| guns and tits..sold! actually pretty funny sofar ;) |
Kerozinn said: Black Lagoon delivers in the guns & tits department, sorry.guns and tits..sold! actually pretty funny sofar ;) |
|
| It's was good enough for me to continue but i'm hoping that it gets better. Oh, and narrator was nice. |
| One ep in. It's alright. MC is boring as fuck but the others are pretty funny. |
  |
| I really liked C3-bu so this one looked like downside for me. But really. Good start. I don't mind such a parody absurd comedy. It was funny enough to make me laugh |
 |
| Hm, it was an okay episode. Characters are.. interesting. Dat boob shot. |
 |
| how did u guys see the first episode if it isnt out yet? |
| Cute show. most jokes felt weak don't know why. The show reminds me of DFrag without male characters. Or like Te-kyu stretched out. Tit shot was actually funny though, and when she stepped on Miou Lol Will continue watching but no hype at all. |
[right] |
| [b]Honestly, a little bend in the plot and everyone starts calling edgy! Fear not! You are most certainly not watching an edgy anime![/s] |
 |
| this was a really awesome first episode. I hope eventually they have team battles against other teams and such. I also hope someone brings out something like a sniper rifle at some point. |
| well no turning back now |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| Nice start hoping that this dosnt turn out like C3 |
 |
| Smells to D-Frag ....and I like it -w- |
| Funny C3-bu came out last summer too already finding this miles better,and that one girl is cosplaying as Jill Valentine! hopefully they deliver on the absurd comedy till the end plus more guns more guns is always nice!. funny that weird duck thing reminds me of Elizabeth from gintama |
 |
| This was... surprisingly AWESOME! OMG! This season may be even better than what I was thinking! :o |
| i feel like i was watching old school anime i don't know why... so far im liking this series |
 |
| Solid first ep. I hope this doesn't get all weird like C³-bu did. Thankfully this has the comedy tag so there's hope. |
 |
| 00:03 "nyuubu"! 02:21 "saabaibaru geemu kurabu" 05:53 dat duckguin 06:07 heyy <3 09:57 LOOOL 11:58 TOHH 14:06 nope, she's Bigbird 17:53 ii yo, neechan 21:01 b00bshots! 6/10 for this ep. DIslike the coloring. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| That was so good! I love this sort of comedy. Damn, I'm so excited for more episodes. |
| Based on Episode 1, this is by far the most entertaining girls-with-guns anime series that I can think of. I can watch it and re-watch it and still notice interesting things. But let's see if they can keep this up in Episode 2. Now I want to read ahead in the manga. |
okanagan said: Are you sure about that:Based on Episode 1, this is by far the most entertaining girls-with-guns anime series that I can think of.  |
|
| ^ I continue to be amused that you're comparing Black Lagoon to a COMEDY anime. Keep it up. :3 |
|
| A better C3-bu? Oh I hope so. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| T3hSource asked: Are you sure about that? Thank you. I was not aware of Black Lagoon. From a quick check, the genre seems to be a bit different. But girls-with-guns is a sure win in any case. I'll have a look. |
