The 1st episode really was a massive disappointment... The 2nd is at least better, but I'm not sure it's as good as I wanted, and it makes me sad :(Episode 1 (yes I'm double posting but fuck it)
That was one of the most horribly executed first episodes I've seen in a long time. No atmosphere, nothing actually interesting, and some bizarre animation choices along with things you'd think they'd outright show on screen, but don't in favor of having characters do the cliched "exposition on the rooftop" thing. I'm gonna watch the second episode and then this is likely going into the dropped pile. The ONLY good thing was the soundtrack.
What a disappointment.
Yeah. Episode 2 was better and in my opinion should have been Episode 1. As bland and dull as most of episode 2 is it's at least slightly engaging. Still underwhelming but not the fucking disaster that episode 1 is.The 1st episode really was a massive disappointment... The 2nd is at least better, but I'm not sure it's as good as I wanted, and it makes me sad :(
This is gonna be a long 18 episodes.
You should watch the old one from 2000 then... Then you'll really get where all the disappointment's coming from.Episode 3: This goofball might be one of the very few that's enjoying himself with this show.
Of course there are plenty of things to complain about and I can understand that it's not living up to people's expectations but I'm actually enjoying the odd pacing and the out of sequence story telling.

It's a severely condensed version so far. I've heard from some fans that are ready to disown it already.Honestly if this is truly an accurate adaptation of the light novels, then the original series was a MASSIVE improvement upon that in every way in what they changed.
