Mm, a small trip down memory lane with flashbacks this episode. The way the OST is played there definitely matches and captures the mood.

There were some decent fights I guess. Still, Rygart..;.;

Is there anything new in terms of animation and story or just movies cut into episodes?

The first few episodes will most likely be the same or have some updated animation and details. The differences will come during the second half of the season where the movies added fillers and skipped/changed things from the manga. This new TV version will probably leave out those fillers and add manga scenes which was skipped/changed in the movies to follow the story better which would be favorable for a second season if the disc sales are good enough.

Glad to hear that.

It hasn't english sub yet, not even for the first episode but w/e.

The fight was pretty nice, but he still has to polish his skills.

This is really nice. I totally didn't expect such a well-paced and properly directed show from a mecha anime (which was usually very messy like Captain Earth).

The premise is interesting, the characters are likeable, and the OSTs are so far very fitting. I didn't watch the movie so I won't compare it. The technology disparity between Krishna and Athens is a bit off-putting though, almost like watching the trainee pilots in The Pilot's Love Song trying to the enemy's fight jet fighters. That a 1000-years-old golem can still function is weird but they did address the fact that there are severe corrosion aside from the core. I also like the way the MC had to slowly adjust to the totally unfamiliar technology.

Looking forward to the next episode.

Despite the fact that a lot of it is straight from the movies. I'm still enjoying this immensely. It was a pretty good episode, and I'm looking forward to the rest of the season. c:

Wow I'm surprised 2nd ep is here already. I guess we were lagging behind? Its good to see it again but I really do hope we get new stuff. Though I'm a little worried is 12 eps really enough to animated everything? Well next ep should be a good one if memory serves me right. I'm excited for it already.

+1 *A*

I'm actually enjoying this even though I saw the movies. I really liked the movies anyway so this is pretty much like rewatching a series u liked + Having a continuation that will follow the manga :D All good ^^

It's obvious that RygartxSigyn is what's happening here. The ring scene and the scene when she pushed him on the wall were total indications.

And DAT Cloe O_o!! 12 my ass XD DEM OPPAI

Rygart growling at the report. Ahaha, that's too cute.

20 minutes is much too short. That was over before I knew it. o.O

If there were more mecha series like this, mecha would be one of my favorite genres. OTL

I guess not much in terms of action happened and the story doesn't seem to have progressed that much.
Overall it was a decent episode and I hope that the next one will be better.

I love the old school feeling that emits from this show. I have no words to describe how awesome this anime is! Guess I've to wait until tomorrow for the next episode, but I don't understand why does this series seem so unpopular? If I had to compare this to the other mecha anime, the others would be total trash.

12 episodes should be about as long as the 6 movies in length, but I am disappointed that I don't get to see more of this :(

Nothing new.

Movies were average... series is average. They seem to be doing a decent job of ending on cliffhangers though.

5/5

One thing that you've got to enjoy the first time, the second time you see it looks even better.
The beauty of the film is that BB does not break the rhythm as it is doing the TV series, but if the other party is to have a different adaptation, then the effort is justified! : D
As said before, the thing that I like it in the narrative, the cuts are taking place in the best moments.
For the rest, the plot still follows the one told in the film, the thing that always strikes me, however, are the scenarios when you can see them in the night sky; deserve a +1 for me!
Episode reaping certainly so many hearts, thanks to Sigyn ...! ASD
A true fan of mecha anime can not not see this show, but what is known here on MAL there are so few, I am sad to everything.
Drawings and animal discrete Mecha are a spectacle.
Charismatic characters.
Fine opening and ending, but the movie is better thanks to the opening sung by Kokia.
But here at least they defend themselves with regard to the graphics.
Nice comic moments.

I didn't notice the signs of the declining marriage of Sigyn and Hodr, but now that I think of it, it wasn't a love-driven marriage to start with.
