I don't know. This anime started off well, I liked the overall idea but not liking the direction it's going at at the moment. -Note to self- That guy reminds me of Gin :o... |

well, that wasnt as shit as the first 2 episodes, it wasnt good but i really wouldnt call it bad either. Though thats probably cause i actually know what happens, who all these characters are, and what these phrases they are saying mean, id imagine anime only viewers are probably more lost than they ever have been anyhow, it was nice to hear relius' magnificent voice, hearing hazama say casual "hey man having talked to yah in a while" made me laugh. The fight was bad like always but ehh im so used to the fights being horrendously animated and paced that its not phasing me much anymore Also anyone notice the plothole how ragna's hair was white in the flashback, im actually surprised they managed to fuck even that up i give this ep a very very very low 3/5 p.s. it was hilarious hearing the out of place music at the very end and then seeing it used on jin fumbling around in a hospital room |

Nice to see Hazamas face has still that Gonzo level of QUALITY. Man Hoods didnt even manage to make a good OP for Blazblue Chronophantasma, well to be fair its not CS1 OP level of bad but its below Extends OP in terms of quality http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr_E086qZUk Man Im really excited for the game, Im getting two copies. Im importing the japanese version so I can start netplaying next week and Im also getting the American version when it comes out for the story mode |

The way the characters were moving in the OP during the fights was awkward, specially that Nu vs Ragna scene. And also in other news there is a new galactus-like boss in chronophantasma http://i.imgur.com/CfnhWjH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/DCmVLbt.jpg These screenshots were taken from the new "highlander assault mode" where you fight this boss but its pretty obvious you will fight it in the story mode as well |

Oh Terumi you perfect troll you. Honestly, not messing up the characters is why I haven't dropped this anime yet. The animation is crap, the OST is basically recycling the games OST and the fights... where are my INFERNO DIVAIDAHs and DEADU SPAIKUs?! *sigh* |

The pacing is definitely much slower than ep.1 and 2. It seems Continuum Shift arc starts next week, they even used it (確率事象, lit. "Continuum Shift") as next episode title. Hopefully they managed to finish the OP next episode. |

Got confused at the start with Rachel blocking that thing from hitting the city but I finally knew where we were when Ragna told Noel to leave and BBCS starts. Everything seemed slower in this episode, I'm hoping for things to finally settle down around next episode and tell the BBCS story correctly. |

Ragna's hair wasn't white, it was blonde. That scene was actually well done imo. The Carl fight was decent when compared to the crap before it but an improvement, and the scene with Hazama talking to Relius and Makoto meeting Taokaka was geniunely good though. |

I'm guessing the anime will focus on it's rest of the episodes on Continuum Shift story? Not sure if speeding to the second game's story this fast was a good idea, but oh well. |

ViperJLT4GOV said: neither do i but i can see what they are doing with the anime, continuum shift was told from multiple perspectives in multiple different alternate realities while the anime seems to be mashing them all into one single universe building towards the true ending in one shot. Personally if they are deciding to do this it could be pulled off fairly well with enough effort behind it, and as awful and lacking ine ffort as the first 2 episodes were i cant say the same for this episode, while having some very obvious flaws i did see actual effort behind this episodeI'm guessing the anime will focus on it's rest of the episodes on Continuum Shift story?

Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |

Don't care, heard Nightmare Fiction. On a more serious note, wow, dat QUALITY animation. This should be a weekly game with trying to find the most derp looking moments in the episode. Though the flashback was pretty good. Litchi, Carl, Makoto, and holy shit, even Caelica made an appearance. Ending the episode with Calamity Trigger playing? Lawl. Hope they at least try not to rush the living hell out of Continuum Shift. |

Watching this without playing any of the games really confuse the hell out of me, I hardly know any of the terminologies, hardly know the characters, and totally clueless on what's going on. I have the exact same mindset as Saburo-kun... however, fights seemed rushed (look at that battle between Ragna and that kid... WHAT) and not satisfying... perhaps that kid is only a minor enemy so hopefully we will be presented with EPIC battles in the future. |

#33
Why wouldn't they spend the majority of budget on the fights really baffles me, so many stills, cutaways, shots of nothing (like when they showed their feet on the beam) etc. Also I played all the BB games and I have no idea what's happening here, I also had no idea during the games either so that is just a me thing, but it's not like the story was told much better there. This is really bad honestly, why would they try to tell that convoluted story instead of focusing on making the fights awesome? |

Indeed... but shouldn't it be like... making an anime adaptation will make more people become interested in the series and pick the games up? The way they are doing now is kinda... counterproductive.

Well, I can safely say after three episodes...this kinda sucks. Then again, I didn't play the games...but I'd have at least thought this series would at least slow things down and explain what you missed if you didn't play the games. Nope. Judging from everyone else's reactions, I'm guessing what this did is blow through an entire game's story within three episodes. That's WAY too fast and it seems like Hoods Entertainment pretty much gave a great big "F.U." to anyone who hasn't played the games. It's sad that I consider this disappointing and I didn't even get my hopes up for it. |
