| I was not expecting this to blow my mind, but come on. You can do better than that. I don't hate the usage of cliches, because when they are executed well, they are so good. But this? This was just bullcrap. It almost felt like they had a list of cliches and was just ticking it off or something. Also, the voicing was bad. It just feels so off. And finally, don't put a cliffhanger if literally the next thing shown is going to spoil it. Seriously, that's dumb, ridiculous and just plain retarded. |
 |
| For every kids who have high hopes for this show, don't watch it. You guys only ruin a show. You should know based from the names, this based from a manhwa. and the studio who doing this is the same studio with anime hitori no shita - the outcast. So either lower your expetations or don't watch it. I,myself, found this interesting to watch. |
 |
| nupe couldn't watch this. too much was happening in the first episode AND this anime takes itself WAAAYY to seriously ... <-< |
| this was waste of money |
| Why are they adapting chinese manga?! There are numerous interesting Manhwa to adapt... Korea/Japan should get there shit together. |
Durarara said: I loved that ending theme song. Not sure if I'm going to like or dislike this one, but I'll watch on to episode two. Yeah I gotta agree the ending song is pretty decent, but that's just about it. The scenes and backgrounds are so bland at most. |

| this is chinese right? made by the sae dudes who made The Outcast? Police Brutality and of course the plan was ruined because of a fucking kid and that preview kinda ruins the cliffhanger lol |
 |
| It was alright, hopefully this episode wasn't the "last episode" Like the series really starts at episode 2 and leads up to them getting bullet holes in them. That would suck. Also something that bothered me is...wouldn't a bank have cameras to show who really did kill those 15 people...just saying. |

ZetaZaku said: It was pretty bad. Seems like Zankyou no Terror all over again, except Chinese with vampires. Although i agree that it was quite bad, i really dont agree that it was like Zankyou no Terror. But yes, it doesnt exactly show promise, unless they make the dark side of the story amazing |
| Stunningly bad. I'm already calling this the worst anime of the season. Animation was downright awful a lot of the time, all of the characters are unlikable and the plot is just pretty dumb. It's like they just decided to mix Deadman Wonderland with Blade and a dash of Tokyo Ghoul... but, you know, the bad bits. So... why are we meant to like the characters? They watch some woman get murdered in the street... then get annoyed at the police for beating up the murderer... then the next scene they are upset a kid got scared... what? Loved that they tried to make it shocking and sad that the MC is getting framed for murder... but 2 seconds ago he was gloating about his criminal record and how he doesn't care about what he does, so how am I meant to like him? He isn't some Robin Hood character yet, he's just a spoilt brat with super powers. Maybe he gets character in the next few episodes, but right now, he's just a dick with massive daddy issues. "Chao...nah, he's too stupid to come up with something this complicated..." -> Discussing 15 people being murdered. How the fuck is that complicated? The MC is amazingly awful. Also. Curious. Main guy is "the child of hope" (note, worst name ever) because he's half human and half bloodivore. Bloodivores are a recent thing from within a minimum of the last 30 years, as the anime showed itself... so: 1. Why is that unique? No human and... well, human who occasionally drinks blood, ever banged before his dad and mum? Fucking unlikely. 2. Most of the bloodivores alive at that time were probably human at one point and if not, both of their parents were human. So how is he the only person half bloodivore and half human? All bloodivores are practically human. This is not Blade where the vampires and humans co-existed for thousands of years as a kind of "prey" and "predator" thing, this is... well, your name was once human and now likes bloods, the end. It's edge-lord the anime. Was a struggle to even finish the first episode, took me 40 minutes. Anyone who gave this a 10/10 is either an edgy child or downright deluding themselves. Don't even know if you can see this as so bad it's good, it's just bad. PS - That retard "OMFG R THEY DEAD?!?!?!?!" fake out at the end that would have been obviously fake even if they didn't cut a nano-second later to the next episode previous where they are all alive. That's incredibly bad directing. |
Neromon said: For all the cliches and bad animation, this episode still went by fast. The pacing was quite satisfying for me, do people who complain it's rushed really want a show this generic to drag out? Will keep watching for now, but not expecting much. See, I don't get this. 1. Why would anyone say it's rushed? It's really not, not much really happened in it. Robbery, flashback, trial, end. Samurai girl did more in its first episode than this... and that show's 3 minutes long. 2. More power to you, this episode felt like it went on forever because I was so bored by it. |
| So... is this going to be the next show that lures us in with the promise of action but ends up being a "whodunit"-type plot? Definitely giving it the 3-episode chance though. |
 |
| The next episode preview kinda ruined it for me. That made the execution scene at the end of the episode meaningless imo. |

| The opening was very well done so I'm expecting good things from this anime. Surprisingly good first episode. I wonder who killed those 15 people? Was it the child? The lead's mother? I liked the melancholy atmosphere of the first episode, although the preview for episode 2's survival game didn't exactly thrill me. Excited to see how this develops. |
| I didn't really have any expectations coming in to watch this although the flaws seriously stick out like a sore thumb. That preview though ruined everything. I'll just watch for that hot daddy now. |
| allo |
| Don't know why chinese manhuas are getting adapted by japanese studios recently. This is pure trash and time wasting. The outcome and whats about to happen is too cliche. chinese these days i swear |
| Hmm a good episode all in all So Vampires do exist after all eh The car chase in the beginning and the bank robbery that proceeded it was cool but i felt that they could have spent more time on world building as that felt a bit rushed here. The scene where the Blooddivore attacked that woman though was scary and a little brutal. Animation for this episode was average to say the least. Voice acting wise Its been a while since i heard Eri Kitamura and her character of Anji looks to be the human one among her friends. Her character does remind me of Nene from Yamanda and the seven witches though. Must be the purple hair lol The mc though is kinda cool |

Nah, I think the "whodunit" part is just a gimmick(a bad one at that) so that they can go to prison, like it's in the synopsis it will probably go like Deadman Wonderland, but it's just speculation on my part. |
| Thought it was an alright first episode. Looking forward to episode 2. |

| Lol, the next episode's preview ruined the cliffhanger ending in this first episode. . . I red some comments here before watching it, so i didn't expecting much from this show. But it was better than I expected, although i couldn't feel characters' emotion. . . Well, let's see the next episode. . . |

| 1st episode and they all got foddered!? then preview they're back!? seems to be lackluster... 2/5. |
 |
| That first episode was like impressively bad. Not just one part but everything. The "high speed" GCI that had cars that barely looked to be moving at all. The bland writing and voice acting like they just pulled people off the streets for spots. Tons of still motion pans and random camera cuts to help show off that this shoe doesn't have a more than a shoestring budget. From the summary and opening I thought we were gonna have something interesting with a bit of quality. :/ |
| Started really low and ended on a somewhat interesting note, so Im willing to give this the three episode test instead of one. |
| That was messed up :( This is definitely looking more interesting than I thought it would be. |
| Well, I guess that's one way to use the preview to ruin an ending. I enjoyed the music. |
  |
| Some kids rob a bank for no apparent reason (only heard their names through conversation). Saw a brief scene of a "bloodivore" attacking a girl but did she die? I guess their being contained because the police showed up? Bloodivores came out of the medicine made by some company? Most of this episode was kind of bland. The bank robbery and high speed car chase didn't mean much because it sounds like the kids didn't explicitly carry it out for money; we're also told next to nothing about bloodivores or "The Child of Hope". And I thought it was pretty obvious that the girl killed the people in her blood lust. which was hinted by her collar flashing like the first guy's. It reminds me of the first episode of Deadman Wonderland, except we actually meet Ganta, witness the slaughter of his classmates with him, then see his fear that he experiences during the rigged court case. I'm not sure where this series is going, but I hope we get some more character interaction or information on the world, because I wanted to check this one out as soon as I saw that it involved vampires. Oh and I liked the OP and ED, so that's something. |
 |
| Pretty interesting so far. |
 |
| Good first episode, reminds me of Deadman Wonderland mixed with Tokyo Ghoul |
| That's a nice start.. good to see something different. It's still awkward seeing the japanese setting and look only with chinese names lol. Awesome op and ed songs. |
| Okay episode. Anji is perfection. DAT ENDING! Good OP/ED. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| This Looks Good. :) |
 |
| This should be fun - watching it all in one go with the current MAL rating in mind |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Ok I was expecting a lot considering the low score but not this. Looks actually kinda interesting. I guess the reason for the score comes at a later time? Looks like someone set them up. Honestly it'd be kinda lame if it was actually this obvious but with everything shown only the BST would have been in the position to kill those people. I doubt that's the core of the plot though. After the preview for the second episode it felt a lot like they just needed a way to get those 4 into that mysterious place and it doesn't really matter how or why it happened. |
| I feel bad for whatever sad studio made this and thought it was good... |
