Zetman

Watched the first episode of this tonight, didn't really pay attention to it but was intrigued by it so far. Fairly violent, doesn't look like your typical Viz property.

Zetman looks awesome. I'm liking Jin already and I look forward to the kick-ass action coming up (series trailer was sick). Looks promising, I'll be following this closely.

Very nice first episode, felt rushed but to me it added to the first episode with the fast pace. I loved the animation and art style and the plot looks really nice as well.

Censor flare for the lose though, he got to

^I'd agree with that last thought.
And

Not familiar with the manga, so I don't know much about the characters yet. I am guessing this has been around for a while.

Episode 1:

First episode was mildly interesting. I'll watch it.

I wasn't expecting this show to be very good, but that first episode blew all expectations away.

Something I'm definitely going to continue, that first episode was pretty intense.

I thought it was fairly decent. A good set-up with some interesting characters and some cool action. Hopefully the censorship doesn't take away all the fun from the fight scenes.

Spoiler

I didn't see Akemi in the opening so I'm wondering if she'll be around post-time skip.

Actually

I have a terrible weakness for sad, over-eager orphans with street smarts and zero emotional intelligence.

Really diggin' that ending theme, too.

Gonna be watching this show and looking forward to every damn episode, I bet...

I wasnt expecting much from this and wasnt gonna watch it but after watching the first episode I changed my mind.
And yeah I liked the ending theme too

Seems like an interesting show.Definitely gonna watch it.

Not sure about this one. It seemed very up and down for me. I liked most of the character dialog, but Jet's lack of understanding of very simple words like die or hope comes off a bit narmy. The action was pretty good, but when jet went super saiyan I had to start rolling my eyes.

My impression: Gantz + X-men?, I'll wait and watch the second episode before I judge whether I like it or not.

I got a really good feeling from the first episode. Sure, it followed the basic form of many darker shounen anime but it had several moments that elevated it above the more common fare.


The only real negative here was the censoring. I don't care that they censored the tits but they also censored some of the violence. And even the violence that didn't get censored seemed very restrained. I don't mind if they are going for a more stylistic thing where characters don't actually have 500000 gallons of blood but I don't know right now that part did seem a bit anemic.... sorry for that pun...

But that's a very minor point as the actual episode was about more than that.

Well, this isn't some Blood -C deal, where the gore is the big selling point, but it got censored. With any luck, this show will be good enough to overcome that annoying ass flare censor.

Yeah, I should have clarified that that was a small complaint because the rest of the episode was so great. I just have the feeling those flares are going to be a bit of an annoyance in the future.
