| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Nice start to a first episode and I love the mecha designs in this, Madoka can kick some ass in that thing despite not being able to control it at all when she first got in it. That piledriver on Izo was awesome. Madoka herself is really sporty and likable and can't wait for the second episode. |
 |
| Nothing much of a spoiler there Hoppy hehe thanks by that. I haven't watch it yet but still it weird to start a season when it's almost a new year. |

MAL is wrong with the date ;-) so is the date wrong for the anime "Another" which start airing 9januari (official site) instead of 26december like MAL says. only watched the first 5minutes of the raw, It looks okay. will watch the other 20minutes when i'm back home. official site says rinne no lagrange is supposed to start between 8-10januari depending on the TV station. my mind = blown, |

| I have taken a glimpse at this series due to the terrible quality of the web preview whom I say the quality is very bad as in 360p or even 280p whom is terrible. However I have a few things to mention for those who wonder of this series. About a first look, first of all the special effects such as the following,  Whom is amazing as a base at sea attacks an enemy mecha. That is awesome and this series caught my interest mostly in that part. To further on things Ran in the following,  Reminds of Lumiere from: http://myanimelist.net/character/2662/Lumi%C3%A8re That is astonishing and good. I will tend to like her more due to that reminder. She is also funny as she is doing a cat paw thing at that part. Finally when combat ends up as in the spoiler About the ecchi, but of course a mecha series does have an appeal with ecchi such as this series: http://myanimelist.net/anime/3653/Kurogane_no_Linebarrels Was fine with it IMO. Although many from the comments did not like it. This series should be more interesting due to mostly girls piloting mechas and the bad guy being male. Madoka’s ecchi in the list:
|
| Heh, this anime feels like Star Driver and IS mixed in together. Too bad there's only a crappy web video feed at the moment. It was really hard to see some of the darker scenes. I'm liking the mixed in comedy and of course the ecchi looking pretty good. I look forward to the 2nd episode and hopefully a decent group picks this up to sub. |
 |
| Looks like a winner. |
| A robot suplex is not a bad way to start a season. |
| Shameless Blog Plugging: animetics.net |
| Yume good postes as ever? :D |
| not bad but rewatch it in better quality. |
 |
| Any info about who's subbing? |
| Must see Robots in HD But... the name 'Robot' sounds kinda lame = =| By the way, Madoka's Robot is the legendary Vox :O Not sure if that has any significant meaning~ |
 |
| Yumikichi: Kiddy Grade was fun and entertaiment, my favorite character is Eclair there, haven't finish off watching this yet but don't think it beat Kiddy Grade. Newest series hardly beat any old series :) |

Blackbird said: Euh no, I was just referring specifically to Ran's character design and appearance. It reminds me of Eclair very much. Yumikichi: Kiddy Grade was fun and entertaiment, my favorite character is Eclair there, haven't finish off watching this yet but don't think it beat Kiddy Grade. Newest series hardly beat any old series :) As for the series itself, not sure on a whole how it will be. Do know Kiddy Grade featured ecchi scenes but nothing of serious. So this series balances it out then it might work out as replacement of the newer kind this season as a Kiddy Grade genre. |
| Wow, this was horrible. Especially character design. And especially main character girl. As for the rest, it reminds me second half of Star Driver. Only even worse. Seriously, giant robots and shoujo crap don't mix. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| I'll see how this turn out. I'm not fond of Fanservice but they weren't that much present in an annoying way so it's fine. I really liked the animation. The main Character is fun to follow and really likable. I'm not expecting an extraordinary plot but we'll see ! ;) All depends if everything is mixed well together in other episode ! Shih said: But... the name 'Robot' sounds kinda lame = =| THIS ! Yes. Exactly what I tought when I heard it lol Blackbird said: Kiddy Grade was fun and entertaiment, my favorite character is Eclair there, haven't finish off watching this yet but don't think it beat Kiddy Grade. Newest series hardly beat any old series :) That we will see when the series end ! =) I'm not a big fan of Kiddy Grabe but it was decent. This show gives me more a feeling of 'To Aru Kagaku no Railgun' Similar mix of Fanservice, Comedy, Shoujo, Action and Sci-Fi. I guess this could also apply to Kiddy Grade lol... |
 |
| This show is so... much fun xD You hate male-beta-otaku-shut-in-character right? Now we have a cheerful-outgoing-energetic-female protagonist. Still have a problem? But honestly, the name XEBEC just turned me off. |
 |
| I'm liking this already. The OP and ED are awesome (Nakajima Megumi FTW!) |
| Pretty good start so far but let's really see how it turns out as it progresses. |
 |
| Mecha robots + guys is cool, but.. Mecha robots+girls+ecchi is NICE! I did like the scene when Madoka was stripped. One thing I didnt like was how early on the bad guys were introduced. Usually they would be introduced on the 2nd ep but, in this case, the 1st ep. Not much detail revealed about the main character in this episode. I'm interested in seeing what happens later on. BTW OST is nice. I can't wait to get the full song. |
| I don't have very high expectations for the series, after watching the first episode, but I'm hoping that'll turn out to be a nice surprise. ^^ The whole mecha thing never really appealed to me in the first place. |
 |
| Kiddy Grade? Subarashiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Why must they give her "that" name :/ Edit: Just back from buying the following lottery numbers 0910 8021 6062 |

(Sky Girls, Soukou no Strain.... even Jinki:Extend was good until the last 2 eps.) NightzXIII said: Mecha robots + guys is cool, but.. Mecha robots+girls+ecchi is NICE! That COMBO is ALWAYS a PURE WIN, in my book, even if the storylines of some other shows I have seen like this one have been........ ............somewhat lacking. But, this one looks PRETTY GOOD so far! Totally rooting for Madoka to kick dat @$$!!! |

| Too Much ANIME......Not enough LIFETIME!!!!!! |
| I JUST noticed that a 2nd season is listed here on MAL for July of 2012. WOW....Now this series BETTER be GOOD!!! |
| Too Much ANIME......Not enough LIFETIME!!!!!! |
| Now I really want to know what's so fascinating about Madoka's butt. Just why would her Onii-chan stare so intensely at it? ಠ_ಠ And oh boy, she was able to win her very first battle in the first episode. Makes me think this show will go Star-Driver on us: She'll win all her battles without any hope of losing. That's not very appealing to me right now. |
FifthAveSensei said: I JUST noticed that a 2nd season is listed here on MAL for July of 2012. WOW....Now this series BETTER be GOOD!!! Agreed. Or they could just be planning to leave you hanging(srsly) at the end of season 1. |
| "That's impossible." "Why?" "Well, a bicycle's the only thing I can ride." ROFL. Anyway, Evangelion much? |
| well, its funny and the main character is a girl.... better then the same old crap of having the protagonist a dude. visuals are also awesome... can't really comment on the character/robot designs as the web preview is horrid, but from what i see.. its ok. definitely gonna be worth watching if you like mecha. |
 |
| eureka seven eureka seven! not that was a bad thing just kept thinking about that while watching this ~ really like the art wish i could had seen in it in something better then 320p i enjoyed it quite a bit more then i thought i would but i love mecha stuff,just very curious on how there gonna develop the MC she seems well *kinda perfect* and very high spirited lol plus this series is already set for a S2!. Mecha Suplex nuff said. |
 |
| this looks fun!!! |
| The visuals are pretty neat and there wasn't anything that bothered me even with the eeriely cheerful MC so I will continue watching. The OP and the ED are really nice, too. |
 |
| The start looked a bit like something you expect from Evangelion tho that changed soon after the drowning kid appeared. The main character seems like some sort of super girl with a weird personality which was funny to watch. It also seems she is very loved in her school which must be because of her personality. The there is the way she lived which seems to be with her uncle and that makes me wonder what happened to her parent's. Since her cousin called the woman in the picture oba-san it's safe to assume that was her mother. Also the way the cousin spoke seems to suggest that the robots are the reason why the mother isn't around. I wonder what the expect of this anime it seemed nice so far. |
| I'm putting my yuri googles on this one. and yeah, nice change of pace having a upbeat, energetic lead. |
| It's quite good if u interested in this kind of anime. But I'm not looking forward to see e 2nd episode that much. Its quite boring. Some of e character remind me of Gurren Laggan and e finishing move that e main character use remind me of Megas XLR. I wish there would be more action next episode like in Vandread that will give me e chill on my neck. |

| Good OP and ED. :> I liked Madoka's trolly-ness. It was a good start, I liked it so far, keep it coming. |

| I really enjoyed this one. The only thing I don't understand is the club she is in... What is it supposed to be? |
newnar said: That's nice and they are so but I find them still a little weak. Let's hope they can be developed better. Quite a few Evangelion references I see. newnar said: Really? ROFL! I forgot about it but I checked your claim it seems there are resemblances but I like this one better.The fortress base looks exactly like the one Japs have in Red Alert 3. lolololol. FifthAveSensei said: Let's just hope it will be as good as IS. Although I see that IS has some mechas designs a little better than this. Then again not 720p makes it hard now to see exactly of the details.NightzXIII said: That COMBO is ALWAYS a PURE WIN, in my book, Mecha robots + guys is cool, but..

Sanguis said: Could be anything from a mark to looking for a person with something on their to being infatuated with a body part from a person. In this case incest? It can be also just for comedy and gags. I am banging on the assumption that something on her ass or some other person that has that on their ass has a huge advantage. Now where did happen before? Stardriver? No?Now I really want to know what's so fascinating about Madoka's butt. Just why would her Onii-chan stare so intensely at it? ಠ_ಠ |
| I didn't expect anything from this series but it's already proving to be a very cool SF show with awesome music, great direction and a very entertaining main character. Of course it's a bit cliché/fan service but this first episode was still a really convincing introduction. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| 1st episode was OK. But I sort of dislike "Mary Sue" characters such as Madoka and the fact that she beat the enemy mecha in 5 minutes because she's some sort of "Chosen One". Oh well, as said in previous posts, at least the protagonist doesn't start off as a whiny loser. |
 |
| Intresting start, Madoka seems likable and full of energy~ But the plot was jumbled -.-? |
  |
| Good 1st episode,Madoka is cute and the robot fights looks pretty nice(well as nice as can see in shitty quality preair) also it has ecchi/comedy moments looks promising but will see,anyway will comment when i saw it in a decent quality. |
| Wrestling robots. This is exactly what I want! It was alright. Pile on the fanservice and there will at least be something to look forward to. |
| yeah i checked it out despite the bad video quality it was an enjoyable watch. so a boy doesnt out of nowhere get to pilot a mech, disappointed lol just kidding. Rinne's Madoka is likeable but lets see what the reason for what appear to be aliens to attack. Cant wait to see how this anime goes. I have a good feeling it might be good. |
