Strike the Blood

This episode was indeed a bit meh, but the thing that worries me is that I get the feeling that there's going to be a pretty big change of feel in a couple episodes. And those rarely end up being a change for the better since the first episode is usually a best foot forward type scenario.

Otherwise, can't writers do anything without amnesia anymore? Just let the plot develop on its own. People don't need to tell the truth or infodump when asked something, especially when the person asking has confessed that she's there to kill you if you do anything suspicious.
 
Episode 1

A lot of clumsy exposition in this first episode but it was kind of necessary to set up the world quickly. The action looked rather nice, but I didn't really care for any of the characters as no one really stood out to me. Actually this episode reminded me a bit of K, but hopefully it won't end up a disaster like that one.

I'm hoping this one will stay mildly entertaining.
 
Episode 1

Ehhh.....this was.....meh.

The main guy is pretty cool, everything else is pretty boring, and the bits of fanservice weren't very funny either. I don't really have much more to say, other than i hope this gets better quick, because at the moment it's one of the worst pilots this season so far.

The ED was cool though. Small victories and all.

Truth be told I think it looks like an opening to be honest.

Well it seems there will be some action here, and stuff is smelling like it is gonna be deep. I like this so far.
 
I'm with redneck on this one for once :P I really liked the episode. Action scene, characters, voice acting, animation and ED all seemed great to me.
 
Episode 1

Not much to say about the rather generic first episode despite the plot being somewhat original in concept.

Looking at the ED it smells like a ''beat the girl in battle to add them to your harem'' type of anime.

Will keep watching, of course.
 
Episode 1
Pretty much bored. Way too much exposition. Character designs felt generic and the visuals, especially plaid girl powering up hurts my eyes. =)
 
Episode 1 was pretty cool. Although there are a lot of things that can be done better. I do love the background music though!
 
(woah posting two days after last post call the cops)

But yeah I like it so far.

- Though the background for the main character seems sort of overdone. (though it could change since it's only first episode)

- So the main character gets a lust for blood when's he turned on by girls? lol.

- That main girl character is in middle school and we get panty shots of her? Sorry I'm new to anime mostly and this makes me feel uncomfortable.

- I want to get to know a little bit more about the powers of the main character. A.K.A I want to see him kick ass.

- Was a little confused about the setting.

I'll keep watching.
 
Would it comfort you to know that most panty shots are of girls in middle school/early high school? :P

not really...lol

I'd have to watch a bunch of girls flashing their butts at me in one anime to get used to it ever. At least the girl here looks like she could semi be in high school, :p

She's probably a 3rd year, so 14-15, 16 at the oldest. Not sure if that makes it any better for you (it certainly doesn't for me). I hear Sora no Otoshimono is the show to watch if you're looking to be immunized to panties, but I haven't been able to force myself to watch it.

mmm

I might watch that when I gain a couple 10 years. For now Highschool of the Dead is like borderline porn to me.

I'd be worried if you said that HotD wasn't borderline porn, but I'm pretty sure that SnO is just ecchi (as opposed to HotD's straight up nudity). For now, I guess we should continue this in PMs or a general thread rather than dragging this off topic even more.

Sounds good.

I hope that Kojou's backstory isn't something completely freaking boring like "OMG my sister was killed." Seems to be that way so far.
