imo i was a good start, i liked the OST, it's not my fav, but it's decent, the animation is horrible though, it's normal considering that Tezuka Productions is adapting this anime, nevertheless i enjoyed this episode, i saw that this one will have only 12 eps, so i think they'll have to rush some eps, so i recommend you guys read the manga, the drawing is great a it's more exciting in my humble opinion, i've already read 20 eps and this manga is really good, you must read the manga.

Damn, what a good episode, a good way to start the series, without going around so much, they already cemented the general plot, nice.

Really from the synopsis I already had faith in it and now that I saw it there is no doubt that I will see it all season.

Of course I understand everything, caring dad, but...Where does such calmness come from with regards to my wife - spoiler! "murder?"? Why out of the blue do people have so much cruelty for no reason?? Well, maybe there are reasons, but such an attitude. Do they kill people every day or what? Vibe Natsuo Kirino is good, but even she had reasons for such actions.
May be some anime?

No way you can enjoy this in a non ironical way. I don't wanna judge from just an ep, but it's not looking good at all.

Really disappointing compared to the manga. Visually, it looks cheap and isn't animated that great. The more damning issues are the tone and characterization though. It's directed in a very serious, melodramatic way that kind of cheapens the tense moments with over-the-top visuals and music. There was a lot of levity in the manga, especially in the way Tetsuo acts, and that helps you like him. That sort of leads into the characterization issue. The show does away with Tetsuo's internal monologue, and it doesn't do anything to replace what it provided. The monologue let you see how much Tetsuo cares about his family, and how much of a kind, earnest guy he is. In the anime, you can't really get a feel for that, so you're a lot less invested in the fate of the family. I don't know if I'll be watching the rest of the show after this.

This show is so weird. First of all why are there so many people working this one girl's inheritance from her grandfather or whatever, these guys are obviously bad crooks even for being yakuza. They will end up getting less than minimum wage for all the hours they are putting in, then they commit murder on top of that on the side? LOL. Next thing is that rice cooker is obviously one of those light plastic ones, the father really was able to destroy that thug dude's skull with that? Lastly it's weird that that grown thug is apparently that "smart" crook's son since he is a common idiot. This is one of those "dark" shows based on manga that probably is carried by artwork and shock value rather than actual logic.

The most sensative time for a father huh. But man Reika sure ended up quite the scumbag for her BF. The insight into the strained bonds within their family was pretty curious. Still what a moment for his wife to walk into though. The one man law firm though huh wow. Now that the cat is out of the bag im curious to see what will happen next. Overall a solid opening ep that perfectly captured the shock transition from normal working dad that was trying to bond with his newly independent daughter to one that had crossed into unknown territory thanks to the deed that he had just performed. Looks to me that the scumbag of a BF has some serious people looking out for him.

It's really been a while since a story with realistic perspective and good writing popped up. I am extremely hyped for it. The initial part was a bit slow but on a grander scale they have set up an perfect groundwork for a really amusing story. Let's see how this unfolds and I really hope they don't mess up and also keep up the quality. It is good, good enough for me. Really reminds me of Tokyo Revengers, dunno why.

Protecting is different than killing. The "evil" here refers to it being illegal.

Vigilantism is classified as a necessary evil, is it not?

I'm disappointed at how easily the father and mother were able to do something like that (especially the mother having no real reaction to walking in on a dead body). No conflict at all in that regard when that should be a massive leap for a normal person to take

Good things can be illegal. I'm talking about objective morality. Whether it is objectively moral or not, to kill a psycho who threatens to kill your daughter.

Thinking about it more, the episode was even worse in this regard than I initially thought. Because they also time skip to moving the body and cleaning up the blood. Stuff like this should not be skipped for characters that have no experience in such a thing. Really disappointing lol.

I can overlook mid animation, subpar voice acting, and a few jarring cuts (to an extent) if the story and characters are executed properly. And that is far from the case here.

And I agree with you. I never said it is wrong to kill a psycho who plans on killing your daughter. But it is illegal. The evil part refers to it being illegal.

Badly animated,but some music and emotional effects are good, like there are blood and red all over the place during the "rice cooker scene".


The Story and Premise will carry this series. Like your Wife asking you to "do the same as what the Yakuza does" sweet sweet dark humour.

Well, that's quite a thrill. Having some sort of involvement in a gang never ends well, and this anime illustrates why.

this was a good introduction to the series although a little messy. With just the pilot episode, I would prefer not to judge too quickly.

Dull both in content and artistically. I hate flashbacks to events a minute ago - and in this scenario just for two bloody words - really says a lot about the type of audience the show is made for. Next to no impact in any moment or line, the scenes with the phone guy were especially devoid of... anything, it was almost like acting underwater, if that makes any sense.
Well I for one already loved Lain.

Oh, man at one point the father did the right thing of killing his daughter's abusive boyfriend, but, that part about Kuzo and his henchman going inside the apartment, was very confusing, did somebody send the guy in a cap and mask to kill that abusive boyfriend only to be beaten to the punch by the father or was he there for some business?
