| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So this group of characters exists to solve cases together... Huh, the concept sounds familiar. However, I was not expecting some fairy creature to show up for the first episode. Not sold on this yet but we'll see. The overall premise sounds interesting and it has a balanced lighthearted and more serious tone for the episode. |

| OP looks interesting. The song is rock-y, too. Suspicious midnight job, and first co-worker he met was Miyu-Miyu's character, who seems to be a lab person. Ex-British guy who looks like a lady that was being used as a "girlfriend" of another co-worker and ex-host (Maeno-san). His first job starts on April Fool?! lol~ Investigating Another, the creatures normal people cannot see and call "occult". Learning his first job... and taping "keep out" (seal). Couple of Tengu and Angel, the creatures that fight. Fighting for eloping couple that they got out. The fighting affecting people. Other two not knowing the reason... It seems like only the main character, newly entered, are the only one who understood what they said. Old tengu calling him "Seimei Abeno"? ED is nice, too (Latin style?). |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Never thought this will be interesting. This kind of story is new for me. I'm sold. I hope the rest of the series won't side track. |
  |
| Looks like this anime and it's manga is very underrated or MAL just doesn't have any info. |
| |
| Not too bad. The bickering and bantering was pretty entertaining for the first half. I didn't care as much for the 'feuding families" (or species) trope. But it turns our our MC can understand their language. Not super hooked yet, so but maybe I'll stick with it. |
| Oh, i really like the premise about this organization looking over the various ''hidden'' races. I didn't expect the members to not actually understand what they are saying though, really? xD Well now, they got a translator :D Was pretty nice and i do look forward to more races and how the relations are going to be. |
| Not bad for a first episode... After the disastrous show from Winter (Mahou Shoujo Tokushusen Asuka), I expected something bad from this studio. The first episode is interesting. |

| Not bad tbh, I dont get why it has such a low rating :/ |

| The premise is slightly interesting but the execution makes it very very boring. The animation is bad too. I started yawning when it introduce the scientist guy with an explosion. Talk about originality. And what the hell with that scientist guy throwing a smoke grenade to a target so close only to implicate himself? |
 |
| So basically them guys were the mystical version of the "Men in Black." So. I'm guessing that guy with a scar, will be the bad guy..............? |
| It was interesting over all and Ill watch the next episode, but the art was pretty unappealing. I like the ideas it lays out too. |
It really do be like that though. |
So, is this Gegege no Kitaro but made by adults? Should be interesting. Also, that trap...  |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| They try to make an anime version of special unit 2 it seems. Seems pretty average as anime and the only think I dislike is mixing angels in all this. They should have kept to their own mythology |
tsubasalover said: Abe no Seimei. It can also be worded as Seimei no Abe dono If you want to sound more officialOP looks interesting. The song is rock-y, too.

| I like the twist at the end! Looking forward to this series Also the art style reminds me of Koi to Uso |
| Ohhh, that was nice. This could probably be one of my favourite shows of the season. Looking forward. |
 |
| So our MC is descended/reincarnated from Japan's most famous exorcist/diviner eh? That will be convenient. Not a bad start for a relatively unheralded show. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| I thought the first episode was interesting and promising. Looking forward to more! |
 |
| More or less okayish, will give it another shot to see if I can enjoy it with a different mood. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wait, is it some kind of Shin Megami Tensei show (even without the post-apocalyse stuff and the violence)? Count me in. |
| This is kind of interesting... Curious how this will turn out. Also may I say that the ED is just AMAZING!? The tune and his voice are really matching! I like his singing voice! |

| I usually tend to drop these kind of anime half-way through the first episode, and especially with the bad score I almost didn't even watch it. Glad I did in the end. Ok story and pacing, solid art through the episode, likable characters, I'm actually looking forward to the next episode. |
| well that was interesting...kinda like the episode and the surroundings |
 |
| The art, animation and overall concept are pretty meh, but I'm intrigued to see where they take this. Three episode treatment it is, then. We'll see. |
 |
| I liked it. Which is surprising. Very enjoyable first episode. Op and ed were good. |

| I really enjoyed this first episode! I loved how it started as a regular crime series before the occult kicked in. The characters work very well together and the animation is great so far. I am wondering what the old man at the end meant with 'Abe no Seimei'. Well, I guess we will figure that out next week! Oh and I also loved the ED and OP! :) |
 |
| Interesting show. I was expecting less from it based on the current rating. I like the concept, but it does seem pretty generic and has some pretty overused ideas. I think this one will be pretty enjoyable and not overly serious. |
 I love to talk anime and manga, feel free to message me! |
| Not a big fan of the whole "secret magic society" trope à la Harry Potter/Fantastic Beats, but I think this show could end up being fairly fun. It reminds me of Double Decker from a few seasons ago. I also like that it seems to have a strong central theme going, namely communication. I hope they get to explore that theme deeper as the show goes on |
| I like how they are slowly introducing the cast |
| That was interesting. I'm curious who was the mystery man with scar on face - they shown him near the end of episode. And btw... omg blonde angels bigger than humans with even bigger oppai! That's fanservice!! |
| The Young Noble of the Field is currently watching - Diamond no Ace: Act II Misugi-kun is also reading - Kanojo, Okarishimasu |
| Not sure what to think about this yet.. It's an interesting premise, but not sure how I feel about it, it's not bad but doesn't seem great as of yet either. |
 |
| Decent start for sure surprised the rating is so low |
| Similar to that series that aired a few seasons ago, but based on yokai instead of drugs. The characters are a bit more grounded in this one, and the eccentricity that bled all over the other series is significantly reduced in this series. Relative to that other series this one is much more palatable, but I wouldn't say it did anything particular outstanding either. |
| As the busty anime MILF always say Ara ara!! What the hell was this, another Abe no Seimei supernatural anime? |

nerojeko said: Not very good so far. The art & animation is eh, generic. The characters are all overly fancy, with unique eyes, ex red, like what the heck...I want 'em...Story is uh, a little dull. You just described 90% of shoujo series lol. |
 |
| Interesting to say the least. After my disappointment with Lidenfilms previous release last season, Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka, I was curious to see how this one would go and so far I'm pretty intrigued. It' pretty much Men In Black but with fantasy creatures instead of aliens and instead of laser guns they have other methods of dealing with their subjects. Decent start so far, let's see how it goes from here. |
| "You talk too much. Think too much." "I don't care how justified you think your reasons are. I won't tolerate liars or thieves." "If you're not going to be nice to me, don't expect me to be nice to you." "I'm a soldier, not a superhero. Don't ever think of me as one." "The world doesn't revolve around you. Get that through your thick skull." "People who live by their emotions go nowhere in their lives. They only find misery. "If you don't like the way your life is than do something about it instead of sitting there feeling sorry for yourself." "You want something go get it. Period." |
| I was expecting this to be bad, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The jokes were funny, the voice acting is nice, the art and animation were great, the soundtracks were nice too, and the concept was quite interesting. Fukuyama Jun playing a character that can see youkai reminds me of Watanuki. I think some other actor should have taken the role, like Irino Miyuu. Well, this isn't a complaint; just something I thought. I love Fukuyama Jun's voice! |
| A decent start. But I personally love the premise of government agency that involved in supernatural things so I can see I'll enjoy this to some extend. Btw, ffs why not just make this cute character as female??! F*#%!!!  |
| Not a bad first episode. Seems kinda interesting. |
 |
| it was okay...Arata has talent on this field in which he's a beginner but already more capable than the others who recruited him lolz...Tengu and Angels huh... 3/5. |
 |
| and i thought that guy who looks like a girl was actually a girl in the anime's banner lol |
| I think I just found my new paranormal series to watch! And also, I'm intrigued as to who and what he really is...hmm... |
