decent enough set up episode. the tone is much more lighthearted than i expected from the show's description. 

annett, sara and klaus are best girls so far.

nothing TOO special, but nothing that drags on or makes a significant negative impact on the quality of the show, it's just you run-of-the-mill, decent introduction

i would prefer if the cast was more balanced instead of the same old group of high school aged girls in a gritty setting but overall it was okay.

This feels like an assasination classroom but with a different cast.

I can tell they were cramming a ton of stuff that could have been expanded upon in those first 15 minutes. Not sure this is going to be worth the watch but whatever, the fan service angles are cute I guess.

Though I'm kind of annoyed they skipped over the girls bonding because like now i'm not sure who the hell anyone is or why I should care.

Boat scene was interesting ig. As a friend said,it felt 'death note smart.' Which... eh.

so far it's going to get an EH out of 10 for me. Not sure if going to finish.

Out of around 26 minutes only about 10 of it feels important to the whole story.

The rest was random unnecessary talk and Lily's tits.

I'll just wait for the hentai.

Poison is always the most ugly thing to see upon a battlefield. Especially given that once unleashed it has the potential to kill friend and foe alike. Never thought i see the day when spies become an official career field. Well we can see why Lily was at the school for 8 long years easily. Despite their sudden meeting its nice to see the girls gel so easily with each other. I know he's trying to train them well but even spies need instructions before they can learn. The cannon fodder guess is a pretty logical one considering the circumstances. Lily's explosive usage of her talent though was damm good but this combined well with her desire to help her new team mates as well. Still it sure ended up creating quite the unique predictament for both of them in the end. Overall a solid opening ep that while doing well in intrducing Klaus and the seven girls also did well to showcase the small things that are worth protecting in the world. Quite curious to see how the girls fare in this new classroom.

Hmm, as someone who read the LN, I'm not sure about the character design on several characters or the voice actors but ain't nothing I can do about it.
Looks good though so guess I'll watch this.

Anime seemed to have skipped the last two rules of the Heat Haze Palace Communal Living Rules (hell, it only showed 22-ish rules and they barely talked about them in general), which were:

#26: Work as seven to live together.
#27: Give it your all when you're out and about.

just something to keep in mind for these next few episodes...

generally a pretty decent adaptation so far of the 1st novel. Don't know if an anime will make the story better, tbh

This show is literally Ansatsu Kyositsu × Lycoris Recoil
Assassination Classroom is a goated anime
Lyco Reco was really good too.

This anime though I believe is more generic and will offer normal action, drama and fan service/Comedy.

Is it just a cheap rip off? Anyone knows?
How good is the show ?
Not really sold by the pilot episode to be honest.

You know source material is older than LycoReco?

expectativa mediana, como esperado; animação mediana, não estava muito feio nem muito torto, mas bem fraca... com poucas cenas fluidas de ação e bastante quadro estaticos; trilha sonora fraca, existe apenas; plot twist interessante, mas poderia ter mais climax e impacto se a direção fosse melhor, logo a direção é bem mediana;

Decent watch. My expectation are high though because of the voice actors... but I mean I suppose the production should be at a certain level for me, plus the source needs to be personally interesting to me. So far its mostly flat. Not bored, but not really excited either.

What is this? Spy Classroom? Defeat the teacher? This is just Assassination Classroom except the teacher is an ikemen and the students are cute girls!

I am so conflicted.

But well. Let's see how it goes. This first episode didn't make me feel anything so far.

Interesting, feels like Assassination Classroom but at the same time, it doesn't.

This will be fun to watch with all of those girls as his pupils.

Let the CGDCT begin!
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I had low expectations coming in, but man this was worse than I thought it was going to be.

It’s like an amalgamation of assassination classroom, spy family, and Lycoris, but just terribly executed and only uses surface level concepts from those shows.

Not to mention it was slice of life for like 70% of the episode which was awful. It all felt very unnecessary and wasted time. It was just a horrible way to get the me invested into the world and characters when most of it felt like padding. The teacher is also really boring.

This is an easy drop for me.

so... harem of cute, "washed-out" spy girls will try and defeat their "greatest spy in the world" teacher (who doesn't know how to teach) as prep to be able to complete some "impossible missions" later on. 1st ep kinda boring but i'll be watching for the hare- i meant the plot and upcoming twists. klaus is charming and def got some top-notch rizz.

Agent Flower Garden of the Din Republic. Despite your mediocre results in spy training school, you have been selected as a provisional graduate for a top-secret mission against our rival nation, the Galahad Empire. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to travel to the Kagerou Mansion in the port city of Arranq, where you will be meeting the six other members of your team. Once there, you will receive training under the tutelage of master spy Klaus, for a period of one month. Further details of your mission will be revealed upon the completion of your training. 

Know that if you or any of your team members are caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. 

Good luck. This message will self-destruct in five seconds.

This was one of the titles I was looking forward to for winter 2023. Have no prior knowledge surrounding it, but was curious just to see what it had to offer. Watching the episode, I felt it was just alright. Wasn't anything great, I'd probably drop it by the next episode. But a little boat ride changed that, and quickly made things a bit more interesting. Hoping this will deliver, but am not exactly holding my breath here.

yo. here's what i think. give it a pass for now. i just watched ep1 and the only thing it has going for it are: high quality star power with the VAs, pretty art, and good animation. the story is Princess Principle + Assassination Classroom. so, wait for the first 3 episodes to come out and binge em all in sequence. because ep1 is pretty much underwhelming. i'm sticking this one 'on hold' for a while, there are other much more engaging anime out right now.
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.

story- 10, something good can come out of it

art-9 nothing to complain about but not perfect

sound/music-10 ok

characters- 10 likes so far

pleasure- 9

overall - 9.6

but since the metric is between 1-5 I will give it a 5
