Should've watched this before the main series.
Anyways, it's still good.

Don't bother watching this, just watch the rest. Come on, the whole series is just over half as long as one of the Lord of the Rings movies if you skip the opening and closing credits, so you got no excuse.

Never forget, that if you post a topic, you're not allowed to post in it yourself, by order of MAL administration.

I am just glad I watched this after watching the series, it covers the first half well but I don't know if it would serve well as an "introduction". 8/10, might turn into a 7.

Kinda find it strange that I watched it already. I was wondering why there was one more episode of DMC than what was listed.

Average. Poor animation. It has actually funny joke or two. I'm not sure if the show is trying to glorify or ridicule the metal sub-culture! Kinda' Beavis and Butthead feeling! Which is good:)

Just watched this (before starting the series) and all I can say is, even if the series sucks (which I do not expect), this glorious masterpiece here already made my day...

No point in watching it if you're gonna watch the entire series, or already have. Still those were some of the bits I liked.

I noticed that each episode duration for DMC is only like 14 minutes. So I might as well get it off my PTW.

The pilot was funny but I still felt like I was forcing myself a lot of times. Maybe it's because of the fast paced comedy that I was finding it hard to digest? Anyways, the VA were on mark and so were the goofy animations.

7/10

I watched the series way before this, and I must it's all the same, nothing different about. This one only introduces the plot a bit.

But I would recommend watching the series.
