THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I think I'm starting to get used to that OP song now. Seems kinda alright actually.

The episode showed more military tactics and monster hunting.
Wish this show took time for more characterization tbh. Nice to see Alisa show up though.

Holy fuck, Alisa looks amazing and badass.

Again, only the last 5-6 mins were really good thanks to its OST. Got used to animation and art, looks really good, but i look much more for a good story, good characters and good OST, so....

I forgot who Eric was lol

I must say, the art style is rather unique and requires getting used to.
I, for one, found it quite interesting and am thoroughly enjoying the series.
The sound tracks are good and are played at the exact same time when expected to.
As for today's episode, more of the plot was explained and some more military tactics were brought to view.
Overall, it was a decent episode.
#4/5 score awarded.

So Eric died saving our MC. Better episode than last week, getting used to the art style. Amamiya's breasts remain the most impressive thing about this series so far, though Alisa's are a close second.

The Vajira sort of reminds me of a behemoth.

It was nice to find out the consequences at least. Sort of interested in the person Lindow mentioned, but that person is probably dead or he was like that in the past.

Looking forward to some New-type action; an aerial battle should be quite interesting.

3/5 episode . Love the art style but hate the slow motion decent series so far but nothing special .

People got hyped up too much because its ''Godfotable'' making it.

These Aragami(s) sure are tenacious. Even so, Eric's death felt very anticlimactic. I guess someone needed to die for Renka to level up a bit.

Rindou is a pretty chill dude; vouching for Renka and being a mentor-like figure to him. Somehow, he reminds me of Dante a little.

Best girl Alisa finally showed up! That arrogant attitude, that confidence, and that sly smile.. :3

Also, lets not forget the fabulous underboob. :9

Anyhow, looking forward to the next battle. Hope it'll turn out better than the first one.

I'm really sold on the animation now.

I tought it was better then the first episode but I felt Eric death was just so anti climatic...Also expected a much better fight with vajra.

Tought it was a "ok" episode.

Watching this anime feels like walking in a pool of waist-deep mud, and even the action scene isn't done well and feel kind of sluggish, like when the flash bang goes off it should immediately blind the monster, not blind it after the light is dissipated, in other words the flash bang goes off and blinding the monster should happen in the same cut.

I wish they gave up some of the shading and draw some extra frames to make the characters act more lively, you know, it's an anime, and I'm not sure it's because of the relatively large number of still frames, especially during some of the conversation scene, the worst being the MC's, the voice acting sound really off, and it's like they're trying to do a really low voice and forget to give them the right tone, just listen to the scene when the smoking guy told the MC Eric is dead, can you tell what kind of emotions they are trying to convey? other than deep voices.

I understand the logic of every scene but I can't feel the urgency and drama from the visual and sound because everything feels off, I'm not even starting to talk about the story and characters and it's already making me want to go out to breathe some fresh air because I feel like the show is suffocating me.

My oh my.....This Alisa girl is pretty confident in her abilities =o Nothing would make me happier to see that behind that gorgeous body and pretty face is a badass New Type fighter

The characterization in this episode was great, primarily those revolving around Renka and Lindow.....Lindow so far is already a great guy imo and Lenka continues to show exactly why he is a way better character than Eren and I love his determination....Didn't expect to see that the commander lady is Lindow's sister though lol

Overall, God Eater continues to improve with quality via its characters and the action....Art and animation was on point actions the OST was great too. The ED was pretty good as well but not the best of the season imo

RIP Eric.....Your sacrifice will not be in vain

This was a lot better episode than the first. I get the feeling that I will love this white haired girl. She looks really strong, and I can't wait to see her in action. It looks like the Aragamis were created by humans, or at least there were experiments gone wrong.

Not really feeling this so far, and I usually like shows like this. Probably the biggest problem for me so far is that I don't like any of the characters. They all seem really bad.
Hopefully the new girl will save this show.

Can't wait to see this other new type in action next week. Also was it explained what's up with that compass?

Good episode with a good cliffhanger.

Why are they taking the MC with them? He's just a huge liability at the moment.


That is the weird thing so far about this animation from a storytelling perspective: what happens immediate after nullifies what happens immediately before. Last episode they wasted 10 minutes on training, but he didn't learn anything and is the exact same after making it pointless; this episode they had him in jail (for a truly stupid reason (if the world is truly as desperate as it appears and he is as unique as suggested, they are not going to arrest a rookie for trying his best to fight) but whatever), but their releasing him made that 10 minutes useless. So of the roughly 42 minutes half has had absolutely no meaning.

If the goal was to have him to learn that his actions have consequences, there are far better ways of making that point. Personally I would have combined episodes 1 and 2 together. From all appearances bringing in Alisa is the main hook to the series (which is why they cliffed her in BOTH episodes). Also, doing it would have made the first episode fast pace, really driving the action. But by dragging it out they made what should have been an incredible first episode (and I hate to make the comparison, but this is what AoT did well) into a relatively bland start. And yes, still generic.

@HeroKenzan I thought it was sad, sure, but I'd be a little sad for anyone's death. He didn't have much substance since he barely had any screentime, so I didn't have any attachment to him.

I am mad, though, that Lenka's dumb actions caused someone else to die. He's an idiot.

The only good thing about God Eater is the art/animation... and even that sometimes it was eh.
The rest is so average it's so boring.
Well, i know its an adaptation of a video game so the story most of the time isnt stellar but ... idk, its just boring.

The soundtrack was, once again, the highlight of the episode, IMO.

So far, I can't get behind any of these characters, especially not the MC, so hopefully this Alisa chick turns out to be somewhat decent.
