As I said, there will be some action, but it won't be an action series where the focus is action. Your quote confirms it as the first episode won't have any action.

I love the ED more *_*

As for the action stuff in this series, I think there'll definitely be action... but it's not exactly an action series as donquigleone has said.

I assume it just has more action compare to Eden of the East. I also think that it might turn out to be somewhat like Liar Game~

I see this as Eden of the East with a touch of Liar Game, Yugi-Oh and... hhmm... even Code Geass.

I'd be very happy with this anime if there's even the slightest bit of mind battle in Liar Game. Protagonist these days depends on their hot-bloodedness too much rather than strategy.

There's some sort of game at the official site and it had quizzes, screencaps, and info on the terminologies at the series. I took a screencap of majority of them. xD

Spoiler for a sample:


It was fun, but would've been more enjoyable if .. they're in a language I understand ;_;

Few minutes to go and the first episode's gonna air, yaaaay~ (but I need to be early tomorrow, drats T_T)

Wohoo, now to try and wait a week for the first episode (and fingers crossed that someone gets Anohana but, at this point, that looks fairly unlikely).

Might need to rewatch this when not half asleep, because I'm sure the financial district isn't this crazy

Wait,did someone just fansub the episode,release it in a low quality format and pretend that it's a rip from funimation when a few details show that it's clearly not?

Nice trolling.

And right I guess I expressed myself badly,even the fact there's a bit of action is a surprise to me.

The pacing felt all over the place to me but at the same time it could just be done on purpose to kind of make you feel overwhelmed like our MC is feeling.

I'm feeling hopeful that this will be the first of this guy's animes that I can understand well enough to enjoy. This had actual human characters and some real story, so I am still there.

Generally, I don't watch anime for the eye candy, but this eye candy was wonderful, I thought.

Good to hear Makino Yui (Hanabi) again. And Sakurai Takahiro (Masakaki) does it for me. Since Shiki, I'm realizing that Uchiyama Kouki (Yoga) is pretty good, too.

What I mean to say is: good first episode. More, please.

Well I was already interested in this anime, but I didn't even realize that Kenji Nakamura was the director of Monoke .

Now I'm even more interested. Can't wait to check it out...

[C] was my most expected series for this spring since it's directed by Kenji Nakamura and the 1st episode didn't disappoint. I'm sold.
Purple Cow Studios (Yozakura Quartet OAD) is involved so that'd explain why ryo-chimo is credited. He did key animation alone for the opening and I hope he will animate more things for this series.

The OP is forgettable, but the visuals are decent (despite feeling kind of busy). The ED is GODLY, however -- music, vocals, AND animation-wise. Just wonderful.

As for the episode itself, very interesting start. But when it got to the Financial District... I dunno, it kinda bored me for some reason. Then it was lame for a while, but I hung in there until it got halfway through the second half. It's an interesting concept. I like how they're combining the perception of money with fantasy. It's kinda neat. I'll stick with it for a couple more episodes.

Interesting! I wonder if there's any chance for ryochimo to pop up again later in actual episodes. The genga on the OP was really really good -- not just the actual animation, the drawings themselves make the character design look loads better than in most shots from the actual episode. It (actual episode) was quite irregular in that regard.

That was a very interesting first episode. The art is quite eye-catching and so far the plot seems intriguing. Also, the ED is just wow. Colorful, and really cool to look at. The song is really good too! So far I'm liking what I see. Will be keeping my eye on this one.

Yeah but she doesn't tell the other guys she has a boyfriend (They'd stop trying to hit on her if she did.) and she's still hanging with him. So the relationship with the boyfriend may not be what it seems. It could be subsistence dating.

The prologue fight, now that was a weird way to make money.

Spoiler for just in case...:
