First episode was pretty decent. It's going to take me awhile to come to terms with the premise though. Something about people willing to kill for a magazine bikini poster... I am a little worried about the budget. There was quite a bit of terrible CG tossed in and for a first episode, lots of flashbacks/reuse of scenes, not to mention that the OP was just a montage. Hopefully it's nothing though. It was a lot wackier in parts than I expected things to be (not overly familiar with the source), but they took all the DEFEND THE CARD CATALOG stuff seriously. I don't think I've even seen a card catalog for half a decade, if not more.
