Yikes... wtf happened? The animation was horrific, not to being the pacing felt all over the place. Some really poorly directed shots as well like when the director shows up on the hill or when Kei throws knight girl her sword. Man if this keeps up I might just drop it. First two eps were so solid as well.

The direction of the animation of this episode seems to be off a little bit...
4/5.

Gotta agree with those who said this episode felt a bit rushed and having bad animation, hopefully, it's just for this ep.

So far, so good. I'm liking this show.
The storyline and the characters are on point.
Looking forward to the next episode.

This show is the best!
What I'm interested in this show is to learn more about magic!
This latena thing is giving me interest to it, and I believe it.

Their magic works in other worlds? Well that's amazing.

(2/2)
I believe that magic exists on Earth but it has been forgotten or maybe it is being kept as a secret.

I'm really enjoying where this show is going, but as everyone is saying, the animation felt very rushed in this episode.

i really hope the production gets better from now on.

Also, I felt like the voice acting was worse than usual too, unless it's been bad the whole time and I've only just noticed it.

It was terrible from the first episode.

Was sufficiently suspenseful but still not really feeling the world and atmosphere at all. The whole otherworld bit feels a bit tacky as of yet. MC is a generic 'kewl' hardboiled MC

Predictable? I had no idea the Cop Chief would be working for the enemy.

Some clear animation short cuts this episode which is a shame, that same d it was still much better than the majority of new shows this season.


To me it was predictable cause literally every cop show or movie does this exact same plot twist where the man in charge is the one pulling the strings or working with the enemy.


^this^ and the animation in this episode was bottom of the barrel tier, really not feeling this show maybe i should drop...

The first two episodes, even with the sub par animation, were pretty good! the dynamic between Kei and Tilarna is something i look forward to see develop (i'm a sucker for dislike turns to friendship cop buddies) But the annoying, random, poor quality fan service that doesn't even merit being called that just makes me roll my eyes.

First of all, Tilarna looks cute in the getup. There's even panty shots. Heh

Anyway, There's some fight scenes between Dennis vs Tilarna that was poorly animated or intentional to give it a certain feel to it. But I don't think the guy is dead yet. I'm surprise that the chief is conniving with the wizard. Dunno how others predict that.

Its a good episode. The low level animation doesn't really put me off like the rest.

I think it's official that this show has my favorite opening of the season. It's really damn good.

I have a feeling though that this Fairy Physic Bomb is only the tip of the ice berg, and we got a hint of the conflict boiling beneath the surface.

Whelp! Gave it the three episode test, sounds like I'm not the only one disappointed. Just grew steadily and steadily more done with the show around ep 2. I guess the whole mismatched-buddy-cop thing got old real quick cause they're both not particularly likable, but even worse not original in any way? Some vague sexism thrown in the mix just for the hell of it too. I dunno, a thick plot could've made up for it but I'm not seeing it going anywhere fun.

I noticed the drop in quality in passing but I was able to ignore it because the story is interesting. What old man Roth said makes some sense but I believe there are other ways to deal with the inevitable loss of identity for earthlings. Also, I was pleasantly surprised by Tiranha's fighting skills-I knew she was good but I was underestimating her until now. Finally, I can't wait to know the connection between Tiranha and Leahna the fairy.

Cop Craft episode 3 is a mess. While understand the limitations and overwhelming stress that small companies such as Millepensee face when trying to produce a 13 episode cour, I simply cant excuse it. The prior two episodes were slow and steady, focusing on character interactions and small amounts of world building. The overall mystery while somewhat ruined by direct exposition and blatantly showing the perpetrators, still managed to to keep me entertained. However in episode 3 we learn just how much Millepensee is truly capable of. Starting off with Tilarna Exedilicas sudden disappearance we are never quite given a satisfying explanation for her sudden vanishing act. In the previous episode she explained to us the importance of her blade, how its more important than her own life. Yet she left it with no rhyme or reason before going to the informants that she questioned Kei about in that very same episode. Im fine with her choosing to grow and maybe in turn to become willing to use less than noble methods to defeat the greater threat. That does no excuse a sudden shift in a character we haven't been able to properly get to known and is still a mystery. A knight and a noble teaming up with a somewhat gruff police officer can work but pacing and time are essential to properly build these developments. And that is the biggest problem with this episode, the pacing. I don't feel the need to dig into the sudden dip in Cop Crafts animation. The show utilized primarily still frames and panning shots to create a rather unique feeling show that could trun quite brutal in a moments notice. Millepensee can't do action. Its been shown again and again. They struggle with shot composition and lack the manpower to properly animate fast paced movements and quick exchanges. I could be more forgiving if it weren't for the fact that the episode decided to force the confrontation between our big bad perpetrators and our heroes. The sudden shift from character interactions and a rather slow build up is jarring to say the least. On top of it all we also have a rather bland twist and a sudden revelation about Kei and our evil wizard. The characters in turn aren't allotted enough time for these twists to sink in and mean anything for them or for us. I was on board for this show, excited even. It felt top me like an underdog of the season. Buried under all of these big named heavy hitters, a hidden gem. The opening and overall feel led me to at least expect a little. But it feels like a letdown. I've never been a fan of Shin Itagaki, I feel he has a lack of understanding what the audience wants and how to properly convey the story he tries to tell. Its a bit disappointing, but I only hope it gets better. If you enjoyed it I would love to hear what you guys thought or what opinions you share.

I really wished they didn't use still images for the fights

Interesting betrayal, but if they really wanted their plan to succeed they should have kiled Kei and Tilarna as soon as possible

No one has read the source material as it is not translated. But I can confidently say that this adaptation is rushed. That superior officer's betrayal was supposed to be a shocking revelation but I wasn't feeling it. A bit of focus on that character beforehand would have solved that. The action scenes were a bit awkward. They were constantly switching between rapid exchange of blows and panning still images so much that it was a bit jarring. I can't put my finger on it, but there is something wrong with the action choreography.
No complaints towards the story though. I will just watch the rest without much expectation, but will pick up the source material if it gets translated.

Such a shame about some scenes and animation, but considering how grueling the Anime industry is for the passionate ppl that work in it I can look passed that as I'm really liking the setting and characters.

Everyone is being awfully generous about the animation

No they aren't. Nobody here is defending the animation in this episode. You are very clearly just trying to plug in a "fuckin' weebs with no standards" tirade with this post which didn't have a basis in the first place. Who are you talking to? Who is being generous about the animation here?


Also,
They chose to instead draw the girl really cute.

What the hell makes you think that was the priority here? Tilarna's modeling here is done no better than the other major characters. If you want to take your aggression out on otakus watching shows for cute girls instead of quality content, Cop Craft is not the show to direct that towards. Have some awareness and forethought.

Yes, I am plugging into that. I'm very aware of what I said, and how I said it. I have the freedom put my opinion where I want to. Who are you to question that?

Because you're wrong? And I gave explanation as to why. Nobody here is defending the animation and drawing a cute girl was very clearly not the top priority of making this show, contrary to what you say. This shouldn't be hard to understand.

Ok, yeah, I can see why this show isn't rated higher here on MAL, the story is pretty good, but the animation leaves a lot to be desired.

Man this show falls apart when it gets into the thick of action. Fortunately the reverse isekai and detective aspect are pretty solid. That's enough to keep me interested but I can't say that I'm looking forward to any Action scenes.
