Nice start! From desciptions I'd read I didn't think there'd be so much comedy. But its a good thing and makes the lead instantly likeable! :)

From the creator of Kenshin... Pretty much the same as Kenshin but less badass so far... seems good though, eager to see the next ep

This episode really felt kinda long. Good start I guess, although it didn't explain anything of what's going on but I'm sure the next episode will.

Why a lance? I'd prefer a sword though. Meh, I guess the directors want something rare.

I came across this anime through... some hentai games... That game has the same characters and stuff... guess it's a doujin hentai.

Anyway, the anime was kinda better than I expected. It does have some Bleach resemblance and all... the girl gave the guy power and they started fighting together...

I hope it'll be better as it goes.

It's kinda like they took Bleach and Fullmetal Alchemist, mashed them together, and came up with this. I guess it might work.

Good start. From the creator of Kenshin. Kenshin felt more intense then this anime.

I love how the main guy is kind of funny and laid back, I think a lot of series with the regular-guy-meets-mysterious-girl formula the main guy tends to be really annoying lol

Great start, caught me by surprise that the main character died in the first episode, but i guess that there are other cases (Yu Yu Hakusho and Shana[dead before the first episode but same idea] at the top my memory) well anyway looking forward to the next episode.

Like how the main is very laid back while dealing with this, kinda reminds me of Luffy in some ways.

I'm just about to finish reading the manga and this being the first time I've actually read the manga before watching the anime it was kind of cool to watch something while knowing what happened, but seeing it animated definitely made it refreshing and somewhat like a new thing in my mind. The pacing of this first episode was also pretty solid, and judging by the length of the show compared to the amount of chapters in the manga it would seem this entire show will be paced pretty well which is a pretty big thing for a shonen anime
