After being quite surprised with MM!, I'm kind of hoping for something similar from XEBEC this time, but was left rather disappointed. The first half was fine, although a bit boring. The second half is better, but I don't think they played it up for comedy enough. I mean, here we have the world's worst dealer (which will drive most casinos bankrupt) playing poker in a wedding dress, facing against a guy who got dumped in the altar and collects/steals teddy bears for therapy. They then enter another dimension of cards, which Rio ends up with a pair of 2s. Later, they discover that the Teddy Bear wasn't even from Belgium, just a knockoff from China....really, their facefaults there wasn't enough.
I know it's just the first episode, and maybe things can improve later on, but personally the pilot episode doesn't leave a good impression for me.
