| Very interesting, another mystery to be added. Looking to see what this one has to offer. |
 |
| Another mindblowing anime this season. Woot. |
 |
| it saddend me that it shown the jap,US,EURO,chinese,korean,and the pommes [AKA english] bank notes and left out teh aussie one in the OP |
 I signed my screen and now its all smeary "When you meet your God tell him to leave me alone." check out my bloghttp://corpse69.wordpress.com/ fix MAL already |
| Wow that was sooo weird, but in a good way :D Although I was totally confused at the beginning... >_>" |
 |
| Very weird first episode. But I think it will be easy to understand the further the show goes. Great episode overall 5/5. |
 |
| From i have seen i am in to the very end, lets hope it is not as short as eden. |
| The first few minutes where like wtf. ''The power of money'' interesting. |
| Masakaki looks like an interesting guy.Why do I always get attracted to this type of anime guys?Mysterious, kinda evil yet absolutely fascinating and charming.. To the main point, the series is very original and promising.The art ,though, could be better. Now I don't know if this is anything like Yugioh, but you can only find out if you keep watching. And that's what I'll do! |
 |
| hoooh this looks pretty interesting. And im surprised the pink haired guy didn't scare the shit out of him, with discolored eyes and all. I just hope it isn't a card game anime like Yu-gi-oh.. |
| Rasta Four Eyes! |
Clous said: The theme gives me the eden of the east feel which I dig. It gots that perfect amount of weird in it to keep you interested but not scare you off. Can't wait to get some more. I think the same here. This anime is weird enough, to keep me watching it. "For me(money), it is the very thing that connects me to this world. It, and nothing else. Really, this is true for everyone; but there are few who realize it." And now this is my favorite "C" phrase to now |

| Selling your soul for money in this day in time they would be many takers! |
| Capitalism ho? |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Amazing episode, I'm so gonna watch the rest of them. The graphics were awesome as well. :D |
| Not 100% sure what is going on but I do know that I already love Masakaki! I think this anime will get better and better :D |
 |
| Interesting, but kind of confusing. Ugh @ CGI. Yay NICO Touches the Walls OP! Sakurai Takahiro <33333 |
| So, what did we learn: 1) Money runs the world.....NO SHIT!!! 2) Girls whore themselves for money.........doesn't take rocket science to figure that out. Anyways, it looks interesting, I'll keep watching |

Anyways, it looks interesting, I'll keep watching the truth anyway the main character is a realistic guy minus what the whole show is about. but the one thing i hate is how fricken stupid he looks with his clothes, i know he's poor and all but pink and purple?? purple shoes?!!? |
     |
| What the hell did I just watch? Though I'll continue watching out of pure curiosity.. |
| Kinda confused since this is still the 1st episode. Gonna keep watching this for a while... |
 |
| Very interesting. I am still a bit confused but I am sure everything will be cleared up within the next episode or 2. The ending really got me into it, can't wait until the next episode! :D |
 |
| Well this is one of those shows with weird arts sequences. I hope i can get used to it or preferably that it'll get better. Rest of the show seems promising. Sent with Mal Updater |

( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| WOW! It's very interesting anime..I hope so..yeah =) Money...money.. good topic for anime. It's like a manga which Ashirogi Muto draw (Bakuman) |
| Oh yeah, money all the way! Love the OP! |
 |
| The fact that the opening and ending are sung by two bands that have only sung for 2-3 animes, and that I LOVE them, almost automatically makes me like it. Interesting so far. Will continue to watch. |
| I watched this today :) And whoever compared this to Yugi-Oh: at least in episode 1 the dialogues are more mature (sometimes I want to hit my head against something when seeing some dialogues in so-called children/teenager cartoons or anime). I loved the "come into my turf, says the spider to the fly" scene XD The one between Masakaki and Kimimaro - it was.just.too.good. The BGM reminds me a bit of... Persona PS2 game. |

| I bet the author had fun creating Masakaki. |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| Like thought this is one epic Anime, It just started this epic how must the rest be! I love how they use the number 666 in their game! Really great concept I'll be looking forward to the next couple of episodes! On first glance a direct 9/10! |
 |
| Man, that as an awesome first episode!!! Love it! |
 "I like to expose what people hide. I'm an intellectual rapist." - Furudo Erika |
| That was kind of weird, but quite interesting. 3.5/5 I thought it would be more like Higashi no Eden (which is absolutely adore) but it isn't. The mood, atmosphere and pacing are completely different which kind of threw me off. The first episode is okay so far but I'm not loving it yet. It kind of feels like Accel World + Summer Wars + Kamisama no Memochou. OMG Sakurai Takahiro voices Masakaki! I KNEW IT! |
| looks pretty badass epic fight but have no idea whats going on NTR right in his face in the first ep lol... time to netori that shit count me in |
  |
| Second time watching a show that talks a lot about or focuses on money (first being Spice and Wolf) .. The animation was pretty decent IMO and the OP and ED is pretty cool.. Looking forward to the rest.. |

| The first part was boring and turned me off, but after the introduction of the MC, I became a lot more interested. OP is meh, ED seems pretty nice. The sound and animation is pretty nice |
| Good first episode. Was close to drop when the pin code happened to be 666... too cheesy. The following fighting sequence wasn't that good either. But glad I didn't. Turns out I feel an affinity with the MC. He'll probably find out that concentrating on not troubling anyone isn't worth the while. Finally a show that has decent english-speaking VAs, and not your average painful engRish Let's see how it develops from here. For the moment, 2 points of reflexion : Will he get the gril in the end ? Is money a relationship changer ? Is she in it for the money ? (whore...) My guess is yes. What happened to his father (and mother) ? Probably disappeared in this other world too. |

| I really like it so far. It's weird at the beginning because you don't know what's happening, but know it got a little bit clearer. I also think it's the first time I began to watch an anime where the plot resolves around money. Sad that there's so much truth behind it. Cash is king. Characters are also very interesting especially Masakaki :D Kimimaro also got this black card and entered this other world. I'm so curious what will happen next. PS: OP and ED are nice :) |

| I was really surprised when the girl told him that her boyfriend is waiting for her when he asked her out to dinner. DAMN?????? I was like, I thought you liked him??? But ofcourse it's about that doe, dat cash. I feel bad for him. This anime thus far is really good. I'm going to enjoy this re-watch. It's been over 2 years since I first saw it. : ) |
| Both the OP and ED are so cool. Also, the animation and art in this are the best. Shaft can suck it. Their animation is nothing compared to this. Some parts were real funny, while some were serious. The introduction scene was done brilliantly. Also, I would definitely like to see more of the plot that is unfolding. Doesn't it suck when your crush pushes her boobs against someone else? The MC is quite relatable. Actually, his worldview is the same as mine mostly. |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
Economics... I'm loving this anime. As your position changes, so does your perception of its value. Money Is a curious thing. Dealing With it is like a game of chance, a game that I personally have tied to the real world as well. Everyone's a player. Very few people actually realize what's going on, the rest are completely clueless. Even among people who've spent time in this world, few of them truly understand the concept. I wanna pass so I've got to study. Practical learning is more important, college classes bore me. Graduates of our current educational system are virtually incapable of abstract thought. |

| Unfortunately Hanabi already has a boyfriend. |
| Decent first episode. |
 |
| Takahiro Sakurai (Kusuriuri) brought back - win. Funny "Midas" logo. So, the first guy jumped under the train because he traded his future for money, thus sealing his fate? Or was he just depressed after losing? By the way looks like he was a card thief lol. Some first person perspectives during dialogues were nice. But what kind of econ student is confused by the word entrepreneur?? Kimimaro is not the best student, it seems. I hope the show won't be pretentious with its themes. The story will probably be episodic or divided into arcs, just like Nakamura's previous works. |

| I like the concept hope some interesting stuff happen to keep me entertained. also has that early 2010 vibe to it which is a plus for me at least. 4/5 |
