so far i liked it, though ive only watched the first episode. i hope it doesnt turn out to be THE typical shounen anime: defeat the enemy, a stronger one appears

i would like to watch the second ep, but with my current connection - impossible!

Second ep was pretty good, I liked it a hell of a lot more then the first episode.

I'm watching the first episode...already I feel annoyed that they took such an awesome concept and started so unimaginatively with it.... but it looks like it will be fun.

[Oehr]

you mean a more serious/realistic approach? i agree, but its not bad yet either...

Finished the 2nd episode..omfg...this is going to be the slowest anime ever.

I was really let down with this anime. I went for it not knowing the studio or the creator but i liked the genres and the story and also the female character seemed pretty badass but it turned out to be an utter disappointment.
Specially the first episode, wtf was that all about? No character devolpment, confusing development of story bad action, poor visuals nothing worked. I was really thinking of dropping the anime right after the first episode.
Fortunatelly the second episode was a little better and i always like to see little girls and boys creating havoc and turning to monsters so it was cool. Also the action was a little better, so i´m not dropping this anime for now, i´m keeping it for a little longer and hope it gets better because it´s still very poor.

the story concept itself is good, but poorly executed with no "love" at all...
well ill continue watching

I know this anime is going to be mediocre or terrible. I do like the premise; however, I imagine it's going to focus more on action than romance. They could make a decent drama if it was more about the relationship between the dead girl and the living boy. But they're probably just going to toss in a bunch of evil-spirit uber villains and ignore the character development.

Lol, I don't think they're going to go quite that far, but it looks like they intend that the story be action-centered. If they were to make the show a drama, and use the action as a catalyst to make a tragedy about two people drawn together by friendship or love and the cruel world that will not let them be together, well, I'd be more inclined to like it.
