| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mizuki Nana's OP theme and studio Seven Arcs gave a slight Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha feeling in the beginning of the episode. (It's too bad that director Shinbo Akiyuki has already moved to SHAFT a long time ago...)  The show has plenty of high-caliber seiyuus you can think of, but that might be the only strength of the show. So far, it looks like a generic fantasy story with cute-looking dog-eared characters with slightly interesting settings combining modern-day Japan and a magical fantasy land. It might be too early to make any judgement though as the show is completely original, not based on any manga/light novel. |
 |
| Hm... Judging by the same creator of Nanoha, I expected something more... warm. But it was really a Dogs vs Cats war? It sounded funny to me. Btw, the first episode was good. I hope more fight scenes on the next episodes. The opening was awesome but Ahn... I don't want Nana voicing a loli... Don't a loli that isn't like Fate. Ricotta sounds so strange for me. ;_; Shinku reminds Takuto a little for me. I was expecting he say "Ginga Bishounen" at any time. But I liked him. A large female cast, a kind cheerful boy... I hope that anime doesn't become a harem. But I'll trust in Masaki. I'm looking forward to the next episode. |
| Man, this was a pretty weird episode. We got a ton of buildup towards a "war" between the cat and dog people, but this "war" ends up consisting of battles that are pretty much just mini sports events, complete with announcers and everything. It's a rather odd way to do things o.O; I'm not much of a fan of the OP theme, but I do recognize some of the seiyu. The characters are a bit generic, but this could turn out to be a fun little series. As of now though, there's nothing terribly notable x_x Screenshots :) Next Episode Preview: |

| seems like a cute anime to watch ! |

Check out today's ESPN website! |

| My only complaint is how the soldiers end up when they are hurt, the soldiers turning into dogballs is unforgivable, I don't mind bloodless violence but don't turn them into dogballs, leave them the way they are just keep the bandages on them for the childish look (this is still a kids version of Nanoha). Seiyuu selection, OP and ED is outstanding, Nana Mizuki still does the roles of younger characters very well. Characters are between good and above average but the gimmick after the enemies are harmed is terrible even for children's show standards, other kids shows such as Precure did this way better, why didn't they do what I said above or even better let them disappear when hurt, both of these are family friendly but are tolerable. The episode in general was good, completely ridiculous, and what I expected from the series. 3.9/5 |
 |
| I'm apprehensive about trying this out. It looks like it could be a cute way to pass the time but if it's harem, I don't want to be tricked into watching that. |

Nana voicing a loli=win I'm actually glad she can still voice them so well since she's getting up in age. |
|
| *Gasp* New series already, Wohoo :D This reminds me of Zero no Tsukaima O.O Nana Mizuki at the OP is just pure awesomeness,the art is fine, but the title is so dumb... I hope that there'll be a bit of romance too Neko/Inumimi fetish? Lol awesome cliffhanger tho |

| This is cute, I think I'll enjoy it well enough. ANIMAL EARS. ANIMAL EARS EVERYWHERE. |

| Great first episode :D The world needs more kemonomimi!! :3 |
| 1 word.. what THE HELL.... very kiddish and weird anime.. but il watch anyways xD when finish then decide how to rate and my outcome how i liked it BUT 1 Question. WHERE the hell are all bloody anime gone? Dont say its truth that japan banned so called harmful anime.. including violence -.- If so then im depressed... |
 |
| What a strange anime. Furries, a nation named biscotti (biscuit!) and wars that are treated like athletic games. ...oh, let's not forget the fact that defeated enemies turn into furballs. I think this will be a fun, lighthearted anime to watch. Of course, I thought the same about Madoka :P. |
| i think im going to be sick. the main characters suffers from the same problem as the one in Omamori Himari, he looks like a 12 year but sounds like he's 30 >.> not too mention he's extremely annoying for a basic plotline that turns out some of the very best fantasy books, how come all of the animes that use it are the worst ones imaginable? the best part of the show is the chocobo like birds. |
     "If only if only, the woodpecker cried, the bark on the tree was as soft as the sky" || ♪My mind, heart is broken♫ |
| MOE! |
| Ah well, its still the first episode, hopefully it gets bloodier I wonder if they know he is from earth, and He Does NOT have a tail and ears... hmm |
| It feels like a weird rpg verson of Inukami lol. For once, Mamoru Miyano does not fit his role. Shinku should really be played by a girl. His voice is too low. I hope for no harem as well. |
 |
| This isn't a kids show. Kids shows air in day blocks. This is a show that airs in an otaku timeslot. Plus, Nyantype and Megami already have ecchi posters from Dog Days out. Its pretty obvious what this is aimed towards. |

| Haha, the bird's remind me of Chocobo's. |
| ^ Hopefully they don't tone down the violence in DW. Also the main character looks similar to Cress from Tales of Phantasia. |

| So a certain video release from a certain group is 900 MB... Are you for real? |

I'd imagine its okay to say the name of the group, since MAL does list the fansub groups covering each anime, after all. But yeah, Ayako site says that he encoded while drunk. Theres a different one out at half size now though |

Maize said: Haha, the bird's remind me of Chocobo's. |
| I was hoping that this would be better, it doesn't seem to be off to a good start. I don't think I'm going to enjoy all the cutesy stuff they do in this anime, because from what I've seen so far, it's just not going to be that good. I'll continue watching it, I like the idea of having a hero summoned from another world, I enjoy some of the animes with similar story. The war itself seems...different than one would expect. |
| I love the fact that it's not a real war, because the character designs and general feel of the show don't seem to fit with a serious story. I hope it's easy going, with a lot of humor, and maybe some romance. I love the characters, really cute. |
| Oh wow. Yeah, i the OP singer distinctively reminds me of nanoha everytime i hear her voice; which seems to apply since it is a kiddish yet not show?? Not used to hearing Takuto's seiyuu at all though, it was sort of weird. Leaving other shows and the people died when they are killed (ty subber) aside, it was pretty enjoyable. The main isn't useless so that is a plus. Don't know how the plot will play out yet though. |

Theres a different one out at half size now though you're talking about the LOLENCODE one right? Even though I've never heard of them they/it/he/she/whatever gave me a big lol moment with "People die when they're killed." |
 |
| Whoa, the fluff. Nanoha-ish already... please become a better series. |
| I dig the Caro Ru Luche clone. |

Wow! It must be every production unit's dream to have that sort of a VA cast. Did not like the episode at all. Ha ha. I feel bad for the soldiers; they all have the same face XD Hmmm...the VA cast is too pretty hence going to watch a few more episodes before judging the show. |

Even though I've never heard of them they/it/he/she/whatever gave me a big lol moment with "People die when they're killed." the LOLENCODE one was only about 400. Raw - 200 lolencode - 400 ayako - 900 |
| Wow, this is REALLY stupid. Though that won't keep me from watching it, as long as it's entertaining. 7/10 for now, let's see what ep 2 does. |
 |
| im going to try to give this show a shot. I feel it will be ultra predictable he will save that country and he will go home and win the show he was going to, and take first place. i hope this has some potential down the road. |
| - Marissa Chan! |
| I hope this turns out to be a pretty good series. I like how the battle is starting right away, but will it end up being good? I feel like this is Zero no Tsukaima and Asobi no Iku yo combined. |
 |
| Well, this is off to a weird start. I'm going to watch it because of all the brilliant voice actors. |
 |
| his voice does not match his stature though, his voice should match his age.. at least he is a quick leaner and he got the situation quite quickly. also flying chocobos hahaha. |
| Seriously, it's really weird. War without injuries and people turning into cats/ dogs? Interesting. |
 |
| this is interesting..... cats, dogs,and NORIO WAKAMOTO Oh, and the chocobo-like things we'll see how this works out |
  |
| Seems like this is gonna be your typical, person gets dragged to a different world to fight a war and then runs off back home as soon as its over leaving behind the a girl that most likely fell for him.. The usual. Cute anime though, hope it has a half way decent ending compared to all the others that are exactly the same. Pretty amusing though and cute animal people are always neat. It would probably make a funner RPG though. |

| summon = kidnapping is that chocobo from final fantasy ,but it look like the knight of Cyrus mount from maplestory also 0.0 the war is so funny, it look more like a sport festival . overall its a light funny episode .The script writer is very good,a lot of new element in this Anime i never heard of ^^ |
MorningGloryApr 2, 2011 7:22 PM
| Welcome to Arf world Tamaki, no i mean Shinku! I was amazed that at first the "war" thing is like SRZBZNZ deal & suddenly Takeshi Castle-eque battle complete with commentator, interesting^^. This gonna be a fun ride to me :) Boy, Milly really look similar with Caro don't you think^^ |
