Well, there is no solid plot yet, but the background art and ambience were good enough to get me on board. This is a good anime to relax to, it has a very whimsical and dreamlike feel to it.

It was random as fuck, but really pleasant to look at and the different worlds were easy to immerse oneself into. If the animation keeps this level of quality for the remainder of the season and the writers give the characters a bit more substance then it's at the very least guaranteed to be an entertaining watch.

This was absolutely fantastic. It's like Ghibli meets Gainax meets Masaaki Yuasa. What a unique little gem this season.

Kokona looks so much like Eri Ninamori from FLCL.

Hhhmmmmm. This anime is gonna be fun. The characters, the art style, the animation, the soundtrack, it all makes this seem like its gonna be a fun, probably kind weird, hectic, and crazy ride. Also thigh power is best power. Papika!

Outro was pretty awesome, and I'm gonna have to get that song later. I look forward to seeing more of this anime.

Jesus, It kind of remind me of Denou Co--

no wonder.


And also that ED.
Got a "click" with its similar-but-different Jinrui ED


This show really surprised me in the animation department. I might actually look up Dennou Coil because of it.

Studio 3hz hasn't been that good though. Hopefully this anime helps turn things around for them.

It was nice. I wasn't as enthralled overall with what I saw. I really am intrigued with the secondary characters that we have seen (the suits and all). I am guessing they will help get our girls from the robots at the end. I do find it interesting that Papika kinda said that Pure Illusion wasn't really another dimension. I wonder if we are entering someones mind instead? Or if what we saw with the helper robot having a brain is real.

I just fell in love with the art style and animation of this anime. Wow. So pretty! The characters are really nice too. Papika is so cute and innocent! Kunka, kunka :3 I smell lillies :) I've only seen Trickster, Izetta, Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku, Keijo and Brave Witches from this season, but this was the best first episode. And I had absolutely no expectations, didn't even read the description.

This is very interesting. The visuals are great. Kinda reminds me of Jinrui ha Suitai Shimashita. a bit. Also very slight Shinsekai Yori feel (tho I doubt it will get that dark... or will it)

Man 3Hz got the budget and the artists! Been their fan sine Sora no Method (tho the story was kinda meh)

That snow igloo! So enticing. Also. I was making bird shapes today so that was a cool coincidence.

That monster was interesting!

Man this is really something. Can tell it will be a really fun ride. It's not too over-the-top nor too silly. The world-building so far has been really magical and interesting. Just great.

9/10, this has potential to be the AOTS. The ED song, I drooled. I feel like it will get dark, or at least go creepy level (this episode had slight hints)

This was really fun and it had some top tier sakuga. I really hope it keeps this episodic adventure format, it's sooo much fun. Absolutely love the color palette and the art style, the character designs are unique and cute and Papika and Kokona are adorable.

That was wonderful.

I loved the simple art style. It made the trippy-bits stand out that much more.

Best girl: robot (that thing was hilarious)

I really hope they can maintain the "magic" throughout the series.

I almost never give out 5s on a first episode. This one deserved it.

Loving the background art, it's really something.
So expressive and unlike most of what I've seen in anime.
I saw some stills in this that I'd seriously hang on my wall.
Looks to be even more of that lovely art in the next episode from the preview they showed us. Hoping the plot comes out in the next episode too, I feel like they were trying to hook with what this show has to offer at it's strongest points in this first episode, even if all the future episodes are all like this, I may stick around just for the art.

This show feels like Laupta meets Space Dandy, only without the fantastic direction.

The animation's gorgeous and the trippy visuals is enough to carry the show. Unfortunately the directing's all over the place, with a lot of cuts feeling jarring.

Still, so far I'm in for the long haul. As long as they up the characterisation a bit I'm good, as at the moment they feel a bit flat.

Ost & ED very fairy talish & Jinrui styled.
3Hz keeps up with top animation. Kokona's melancholy like the whole sora no method, and story randomness like dimension w, if there is a plot.

quite the random show Studio 3hz back at it again say what you will about the shows they've done so far the animation from them is top notch and i feel with them going with a simpler art style will allow them to keep up with it through out the show (hopefully)


differently has the feeling of one of those older animes you would randomly end up seeing late night on cartoon network or something like that back in the day,glad i still checked this out.


op is great ed is good too reminded me of Jintai a lot

It's kinda random episode with ups and downs. We find some heroic music, and very good special effects but the story goes nowhere and they didn´t explain anything. I don´t understand a fuck. The characters designs are pretty interesting but we only can wait to see what wait for us in this Studio 3Hz's anime.

The second I watch, the first was dimension w and the only part where it lacks is the story development.

Have a very good feeling that:
1. This show is going to be INSANELY underrated this season
2. This show is going to end up being fucking awesome.

Just from the first episode it gave off a very Gainax/Trigger-y feeling with the crazy animations, character expressions, art style in general, and with the big explosive way some of the fighting occurred.

Almost gave me a bit of a FLCL vibe as well in terms of cheer craziness.

The sound track was pretty fucking legit too.

I hope all of the episodes stay this way consistently.

We didn't really get into it yet, but it seems like the story wont just be madness either. She managed to bring that glowing "wish" stone back from the Pure Illusion, and when it entered the regular world all of the other stones also in the real world started glowing: the glasses guy in the chair had one, and it looks like that weird KKK looking cult had one or vision of one.

I also find the dynamic between Papika and Cocona really interesting already, and I'm eager to see how that fleshes out.

somethings i picked up on;

-orange hair girls seems to have escaped from a lab looking for a partner with potential

-orange hair girl is surprised blue hair girl is alive, it may people mean that without potential die. if this is true orange haired girl has gotten a lot more interesting.

-robot is the one who transports them

-robot also gave blue girl's power.(this last one i am not sure about)

Even though I have no idea what the hell is going on, this is probably the most interesting and unique show this season. No wonder it's an original anime. It also kind of feels like a mix of Dennou Coil, with the visual style of Kyousou Giga.
