2chan topic? XDD

[Klashikari]

Some people might think I suddenly turned crazy, but this week episode was awesome, really.

They absolutely didn't omit anything and they used the time as much as they could (I was the first impressed how faithful they were).
I can't tell how much it was great, as my PC crashed when beato was showing up (talk about bad luck, curse or thewhim of the golden witch ), but this episode definitely earns a minimum of 9 from me.
I need a proper raw, but I don't think I will give any lower than this.

Only nitpicking? some faces are a "bit" inconsistent, especially Maria looking VERY round at times, but extremely minimal compared to the FACES before.

And also... BERN! *changes back to previous template*

*shock*Klashikari? Is that you? :0

Now I really want to watch it.

°_°

I'm quite surpised. If Klash says it was awesome there must have been a huge leap in the quality of the adaption °°

This is quite promising because the interesting part is starting now, and if they can get it right you can completely overlook the flaws of the introduction.

Yes they did.

They used a lot of BGM in fact:
Dead Angle, sasori no harawata, オルガン小曲_第6億番_ハ短調 (!!!), 牢獄ＳＴＲＩＰ (rougoku), etc.

[TsundereCake]

SOOOOOOO excited now O_O

[karinvampire]

I've been waiting for her to show up...

Spoiler for bern:

Alright, for once I actually see the light in DEEN.
I've never thought they'd use up entire B part just for Tea Party and ???...
Well, I feel for first timer though, for VN readers it was excellently animated "show", but for first-timers... were you able to catch up with what's going on?

Hmm, in contrast to throughly fast-paced EP1 main part, compression was near non-existant in Tea Party and ???.
Am I a bit far fetched to think that, DEEN's gonna focus more on... well, that side which will have more eye-candies?
That sure would contribute to FW's bussiness in similer style with what they did Highrashi, more so than spending time on Kinzo's crying out loud.

Oh and boobs.
It's definitely official that stuffs have some obsession toward boobs.

Did they play a decent length of Golden Slaughterer at least?

Only Episodes 2-X will tell, especially if they decide to chance the pace/structure since they are now done with Legend of the golden witch.

We can only hope (at least, we can expect a long world end dominator!)

[bernkastel51113]

I just can't wait to watch it

Spoiler for Evil Bern smile:

[Yami Sonozaki]

Haven't seen it yet, but since everyone (even Klashikari) says it's good, I really can't wait XD

[ameskitty]

About the fanservice...

Spoiler for ep I-V:

Wow, DEEN, just...wow.

I'm not surprised this episode seems to be getting good reviews as it's by nature a lot more plot-oriented than character-oriented. They're doing a kick-butt job with the plot so far . And as much as I was disappointed with the characterizations I think it was probably a good long-term plan to push them aside for later. Later episodes, particularly ep 2, will force them to improve .

I can't wait to actually, you know, watch this episode .

[Klashikari]

No, Kanon is present.

And yes, Deen didn't exactly toned down the fanservice.

Thought so . (I was more surprised that the fujoshi that lurk there failed to get any pics of him :P)

Wasn't expecting them to, honestly XD. It's kind of funny so I don't mind it.

If not, I'm guessing we'd hear nothing but complaints about that from various places. =P
