This topic is about what you think of the first episode of each of the Fall 2015 anime you watched the first episode of. You can discuss what you thought about the first episode of each new anime, how promising, how interesting, well, everything you think about the anime from it's first episode.
I'll personnaly give each anime a number of stars out of 5 to say how promising i think each of them is, followed by what i thought about them, make what you want from your post, you don't have to do it like me if you don't want to. So there goes my list ( I'll update it with new ones when i watch them ) :

Utawarerumono : Itswari no Kamen
****
This was probably the anime i was the most interested in ( As well as One Punch Man ) when i read the description. After watching the first episode, i still thinks it looks really promising ! Both main characters seem pretty good, i loved their interactions in the first episode. The art is really good, the animation seems good. The setting is really nice, i love those types of settings, it gives a break out of all the school settings ( There are way too much of these ). The story could be interesting and the comedy was actually pretty good IMO, i loved the bath scene XD. This anime also made me think of Spice and Wolf ( Tell me if you got that impression too :P ). Overall, this anime seems very interesting !

Gakusen Toshi Asterisk
***
This anime made me think of SAO mixed with a battle manga ( Well school battle manga ). The main reasons it made me think of SAO are the main character, he looks a lot like Kirito's avatar from the 1st episode of SAO, he does seem like he'll be a better character than Kirito though. Also, it seems like there'll be a big harem growing around the main character as the series go. The last reason is that it really seems that the anime will be popular. It seems to be a bit darker than SAO or DanMachi but i'll have to wait and see. Overall, it seems good, but more of an enjoyable ride than a technically good anime.

Young Black Jack
****
This anime wasn't in my plan to watch list last season when i was looking at the upcoming anime, but i'm glad i decided to watch it because the first epidode was pretty good ! I didn't have much expectations for it, all i knew was it's a prequel to one of the if not the best selling manga of all time ( According to wikipedia and i'm counting average sales per volume ). But again, popularity doesn't mean anything. Great first episode, i really look forward to that anime !

Comet Lucifer
***
It was a nice first episode. At first i watched the preview and it seemed interesting, then after seeing 8bit was making it, my expectations became quite low, but after the first episode, it seems pretty decent, i think it'll be a good anime. I doubt it'll be more than a 6/10 though.

One-Punch Man
*****
I was really anticipating this anime and it is great. Saitama is such a badass, i also think he'll become a great character. Of course this anime could go wrong ( any anime could ) but i doubt it will happen, i think it'll be one of the best anime of the season and even one of the best of the year.


That is what i think of the anime i have watched up to now. Those were how promising i thought each anime was from their first episode. So those anime could become worse or better as the episodes go.

Owarimonogatari - Already ATOS.

Lupin III (2015) - Good shit.

Young Black Jack - Better than expected.

Noragami Arato: Nice to see the old characters again and was a good first episode, but I don't think this will save the whole series from just being average in my eyes.

Hacka Doll the Animation: I came in expecting what I got so that's nice. Looks like another reference-heavy show. I'm in all the way.

These are a little bit more than "first impressions" since I've seen at least 2 episodes each of these, but oh wells!

[*]Brave Beats: Reminds me a lot of the sort of writing/comedic styles of late 90s/early 2000s children's anime like Pokemon, Digimon, and Cardcaptor Sakura. Definitely not going to be a favorite of mine, but I think I'll enjoy this. It brings me back to the feelings I got when watching Saturday morning cartoons/anime as a kid.

[*]Comet Lucifer: Probably my favorite of the season at this point. They've done an excellent job with the world building in the first few episodes. It reminds me a lot of a Final Fantasy game actually, most specifically Final Fantasy X. The characters seem cool so far, and the music/visuals are nice too. Got decent hopes for this one.

[*]Dance with Devils: I actually had pretty low expectations going into it, but it definitely surpassed them by a long shot. Actual story build up with some real substance to it, interesting characters that don't come across as clones of each other, and amazing music! I really am looking forward to this, and hope it keeps up the musical type feel it has!

[*]Fushigi na Somera-chan: It's tough to really comment on this one. It's entertaining and relatively funny, but hard to really say what exactly this is going to be about at this point. Likely I'll keep watching it, but I don't really foresee excellence from this one.

[*]Itoshi no Muco: Adorable and hilarious! That's all that truly needs to be said. The artstyle is a but rough, but the animation itself is actually very good. Even if it wasn't though, I'm getting a huge kick out of this one. Loving it!

[*]JK Meshi: Not at all what I was hoping for from this. Visually it looks terrible, the characters are pretty bland, and the subject matter is all over the place. The first half is a weird history lesson I don't give a shit about, and the second half that actually does focus on the cooking (like the series was supposed to) doesn't even show the cooking process or anything. It's so bad, and as someone with a big passion for cooking, I had such high hoes for it too...

[*]Lance N' Masques: I am really loving this one a lot, and it makes me pretty sad to see that most people aren't feeling that way about it. The character designs are very Moe, and the story can get pretty cheesy at times, so I guess I understand why people don't care for it, but personally I think it's great! Lovable characters, am intriguing story, and some awesome music to back that up! This could wind up being my favorite of the season quite easily depending on how things go.

[*]Sakurako-san: One of the more unique anime this season, that's for sure. It's basically an anime adaptation of a crime forensics show, and it's doing a great job so far. The main two characters are both very likable, the mystery/suspense moments are effective, and it looks very well animated too. My only real gripe is why some of the law enforcement is just letting this unfamiliar woman onto crime scenes and such, but it's a fairly minor gripe at this point.

I'm already 2-3 episodes into each series but I still consider it first impressions since we aren't too far into them quite yet~

Comet Lucifer: I think it's decent/borderline good. There are some things in the anime that I find a bit confusing but other than that I think it's fine. Felia is pretty adorable~ (7/10)

Concrete Revolutio:The animation for it is interesting but I'm not too engaged in the story. I find it a bit boring and kind of weird but I don't find it really bad. (6/10)

Gakusen Toshi Asterisk: The first episode was kinda similar to Rakudai Kishi no Calvary. I'm not a huge fan of this series though as I find it generic and boring at times. And I don't particularly like ecchi too much either so it's a set back for me. The opening though is good but the anime I think is meh overall. (5/10)

Heavy Object: Not really sure what to think of this anime. The story sounds a bit interesting but it's nothing I find too enjoyable. And I find the characters to be a bit boring. This anime however will be 24 episodes long so I hope it gets better because so far I find it meh in my opinion. (5/10)

Komori-san wa Kotowarenai: I know it's a short 2 minute episode anime but this one I don't like at all! The synopsis sounded interesting but I kind of cringe when watching this. D: (3/10)

Kowabon: Again it's another short anime. I don't mind the rotoscoping at all but I don't find it scary in my opinion. (4/10)

Noragami Aragoto: I thought it had a great start! I'm enjoying this series a lot and the feels have already begun. I think I like it a little more than the first season tbh but we will see as the anime progresses. (8/10)

One Punch Man: It pretty much lives up to the hype. I originally wasn't going to watch it but I'm glad I did! Saitama is really funny (and reminds me of Captain Falcon) and the opening theme is awesome. Definitely one of my favorites this season.(8.5/10)

Rakudai Kishi no Calvary: I find it kind of generic and I don't like the ecchi elements. However I find it to just be okay. It's not too bad but it's not the best either. I do however like Stella so far and think she's kind of cool~ (6/10)

Sakurako-san: I find it really interesting (in a good way) so far. I like mystery and suspense so I was able to be engaged in this anime and enjoy it. I love the main girl. It's one of my favorites this season so far and I really hope it continues to be good. (8/10)

Shingeki! Kyojin Chuugakkou: A very funny and cute spinoff of Attack on Titan. Some may not like it but I enjoy it so far. (7.5/10)

Subete Ga F Ni Naru: The Perfect Insider: Not really sure what to think of this anime so far. I mean it's interesting but there's something about this anime I can't put my finger on. Nonetheless I'll keep on watching it and hope it doesn't disappoint~ (6.5/10)

Taimadou Gakuen 35 Shiken Shoutai: So much ecchi this season lol. That aside, I find it to be okay and hope it gets better~ (6.5/10)

Young Black Jack: This was another anime I wasn't originally going to watch but glad I did. I know it's not one of the popular ones and not the most talked about animes of this season but it's a good watch and look forward to more. (8/10)
