THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Welp, I definitely got the intentions of this show. The story is dumb but hey, there are animals and characters that can transform into their beast mode

Fan service is very evident with characters like Hitomi. I can't say this is a good show at all so far. The action felt mindless too (although I will admit, it's kinda intense when the momentum gets going)

Meh start so far. Just felt like popcorn entertainment with unimpressive storytelling. I will say this though...the show is pretty honest with its style but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Good, more animal trivia and dumb action. It certainly reminds me of Terra Formars but it's even more straightforward.

This series seems related to Arachnid which I think would make for a much better show... oh well.

Also, the ED is some sexy shit, didn't expect that ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Aight , i don't get it. This was great! Honest with it's edgyness , but hey. We all need jokes in anime and fanservice is one way , i seriously laughed during the non-action moments. Coming to the action itself! Fuck fuck & fuck! Maan this was a great way to start. A 7-min long over the top fight with a confused/perverted character watching by. The animation truly impressed me , minimizing CGI to a 0 , thus providing HXT style fights. That was the "introducing the show" part , however the premise and so far provided backstory's were great. I'd guess the premise is quitw similar to last falls Juuni Taisen with all these animals , but far better used. Were instead of having psycothic necromancers or people with powers that help them jump to different time lines? All that without any explanation? No,no here all the powers explained as it is animal genes put into humans using injection. This is so brilliant and explains all the characters personalities and respected animals. Very well written , how about backstory. I mean all i have to say is that "Killing Bites" are just "Gladiator Rings" between the T-ropes & that the backstory of the series is totally related to this. It's just all good. I also like how they closed up what would've been a plothole when the boy explained how those rapist guys weren't his real friends and just got to know them. The music was great , the overall animation was also great. At the end a 10/10 start. I personally dislike such good starts as they're often a symbol of anime's that will only turn downhill afterwards.

This episode was a very enjoyable level of stupid. Hitomi turns into a honey badger. Her fight against that lion was okay. The poor guy got himself into some weird stuff. Looks like this show is going to have some uncensored fanservice.

This was incredibly trashy as anyone would expect, but I enjoyed it. It's dumb fun I needed. The male lead was a little grating but it's not like his reaction isn't understandable.

Seems a perfectly reasonable reaction considering he was shocked to find out he was carting around rapists, then... well, you saw the following chain of events, more surprised at the jumping on her saying thank you and and that she needs medical attention as she is still a girl.

As a lover of romance anime, I have to wonder if they ship.

Pretty much what I wanted and expected after reading the first chapter: tits(uncensored even!) and violence. Pure trash, but in the best possible sense. Sometimes you're just in the mood for these kinda series, ya know? And that fight looked surprisingly nice too, by my standards anyway. So yeah, good stuff so far.

Damn, honey badger really doesn't give a shit.

Lol well i expected idiotic, mindless entertainment and that's exactly what i got. Cool fights, blood, and tits (surprisingly uncensored) should make this a fun watch each week. However, I'm not too fond of the male MC. I didn't even think he was the MC, i thought he'd be a one-time character that would get killed off by the end of the episode. But i guess shippers need someone to pair the main girl with.

This show does, like some others have mentioned, remind me of Terra Formars a little, but i feel like this one shamelessly embraces its ridiculousness (this assumption is based solely on what we saw in this episode, as i have no knowledge of the source material), while TF tried too hard to take itself seriously. If the rest of this show stays like this episode, it should be pretty enjoyable.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Well, soundtrack and visuals are good but everything else is... well... I've seen enough ecchi to know where the story is going. Someone in the revievs quoted something that it's better to find some femdom hentai than watch it. Still I'll watch some more eps before eventual drop.

You know a show is going to be good when the characters start calling out the names of their attack moves, and a narrator gives introductions during the fights. XD It's kinda JoJo-esque in its ham and cheesiness. The first episode was a lot of fun.

Well, that sucked. Bullshit, edginess and porn aside, I'm sick of pseudo-male MCs with nothing but oestrogen going through their veins. Both human trash and girl are as cliche as you can get. I'll check out another episode but I doubt it will get any better. They should either have actual male MC or none at all like every other fighting porn like Queen's Blade or whatnot.

Yep...I remember reading a bit of the manga and I was into it for a little bit before the fan translations quit translating it. I definitely recognized Yasuharu Takanashi's music composition which is perfect for the "edge" but out of all the freshmen shows I've elected to watch from this season so far (Toji no Miko, Grancrest Senki, Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens), this one is at least moderately entertaining and just honest with itself.

UPDATE: So the guys being full anthro was something I don't remember from the manga, but it's been about 2 years iirc so I'm out of date. And they really gave all the girls a bust increase compared to their manga designs. Looks like fanservice is gonna be the seller of this one compared to the blood and gore in its source. Oh well.

This series reminds me of The Severing Crime Edge and Taboo Tattoo with its tendency to go from happy-go-lucky sex comedy to bloody carnage in the space of a chapter. The blood splatter is so blatant and over-the-top it becomes nigh-impossible to take seriously. Also, Yuya's hands seem to be breast magnets given his meeting with Hitomi. At least the series should be commended for setting up its mood right from the beginning.

Hearing Junichi Suwabe going full ham mode during the explanations of the characteristics of the animals the fighters are was pure bliss. Love this man, seriously.
This seems like a fun, dumb, edgy anime, exactly what I expected, and I liked it. Didn't expected the uncensored boobs either. Cannot wait for the next episode.

That's about the only thing this series has going for it outside of it being uncensored. Everything else about it was awful. The voice acting was especially cringeworthy.

People are being a bit critical of this show and yeah there are a number of reasons why but it's by no means terrible, it has some good potential to be a good show it just needs time to develop more. For those worried it will go too far into the ecchi territory rest assured, I've read 90% of the source material and apart from some bare skin there isn't much unless they stray form the material and go in their own direction but based on this episode they will be pretty loyal to it.

Well, take (maybe) some elements of the likes of Ikkitousen and mix it with Bloody Roar and there ya go: Killing Bites.
Trashy shit but hey, trash is very welcome sometimes. This is one of those "sometimes" occasions, i guess.
As long as it doesnt get worse than shit like Taboo Tattoo, Hyakka Ryouran or Triage X, then we are good (it would be an accomplishment to be worse than those 3 imo).

Killing Bites was mindlessly fun. The human animal battle premise is very weird is cheesy, but in the best possible way. The presentation/direction are executed in a way that reminds me of High School of the Dead, mixed with entertaining edgy elements of JoJo. There is a decent amount of good action, gloriously hot scenes, a rock-and-roll soundtrack, and edginess that kept me watching Killing Bites. I definitely want more.

i will watch this, because id like more monster/animal girl anime, i think there cute and fun... but this show is a bad one for the normal viewer, if you like gore and killing, then this is your anime, if you like anything els, then your going to be disappointed. at every point in this episode were they could have added story or thoughtful interactions were so close to but then crush quickly.

this show will always get low scores bc people who dont like it will watch it, if you like this ind of stuff, then this is your show, its not bad, you just have to be the kind of guy that likes this kind of stuff, there for i think i will finish it but not rate it.

I was surprisingly entertained. The MC guy got a bit annoying. But whatever, I'm sure the fights will be good and it isn't trying to be more than what it is so that's good!

5-6/10 IMO based on the first EP.

Also, holy shit that ED.

99% of community label this anime as trash, but still going to continue watching it. I don't understand this logic at all.

Not to mention, the comparison to other anime/manga series is bad except those that mention Bloody Roar and Terra Formars.

There's not much high expectations. The series story is mediocre and ecchi is subpar.

My only hope is this anime adaptation gets popular (despite its negative reputation) enough for a new gaming project because it has potential to be its own unique fighting game based on the manga's source material.

Kept watching because of the based Frip Side intro.
meh
I’ll keep watching it. One reason being that ecchi anime have a special place in my heart, being that it got me back into anime 7 years ago. The story isn’t entirely captivating and it feels as if the MC is just there to hang about but I can’t drop it now that I’ve started. Ecchi fun is also welcome.
Watching Nanatsu no Taizai 3rd Season next.

Interesting concepts, good fights, some really good music, good fighting animation from what I noticed. Hitomi is a really fun character so far and she certainly helps the show be what this episodes makes it out to be, a straightforward fight for survival show. The animalistic part of it just makes it better and more entertaining.
