Just watched the raw - quite nice for a first episode. I'll mark this one as a series to follow, as I'm not too gung ho with this current season (probably my fault for keeping my tastes too focused). For those who've already read the first chapters of Chrome-Shelled Regios: Missing Mail, well, it seems it's quite faithful to the story (and, yes, I pertinently know the novel came first - I was referring to the overall plot, from which CSR:MM was derived), with the opening scenes harkening back to Leifon's life in his childhood city.
Quite action-packed, animation's okay (nothing as spectacular as Macross or 00, but appropriate for a shounen series), but let's keep in mind that this is the pilot ep, and that more budget is allotted to drawing it compared to the following ones.
And...
Ain't Feri cute with that dual personality of hers?
Next week: the tournament.
EDIT: I didn't see any screenshots on 2chan...a pity. This universe needs more love.
