What kind of fight lasts 3 seconds (the time it takes to activate Blazing Knuckle)? What kind of fights are you comparing them to? Dragonball fights? Fights where the character's introduction alone takes a whole season? Whatever.
Perhaps I should have said "Poorly animated fighting" instead then. Where a fight begins and ends is irrelevant.

It didn't make me go "wow!" It made me roll my eyes. Thus poorly done.

And no, I'm not a fan of DB. In fact, I hate the use of strong shounen clichés.

Poor animation? What's this mean? What do you want, Gonzo 3-D effects? If that's what you want, maybe we can petition the production studio. Maybe they can give us the 3-D effects, and we can make 600-megabyte releases for you guys. Hey, what's 4x the download time when you guys get all the cool, state-of-the-art special effects?
Poor animation as in poor animation. Just go and compare to something like Suzumia Haruhi no Yuutsu. It's like night and day! The gargoyles didn't even move their mouths when they spoke! Also, the horn rocket attack was just so baaad.

Messed-up storyline? Ever heard of "don't judge a book by its cover"? You barely scratched the surface and you think you're Roger Ebert. Psh. You haven't even seen 10% of the goddamned series.
What I saw in episode 1 in terms of storyline progression (the way they introduced characters and the setting) did not impress me. It felt rushed and amateurish.

Messed-up compared to the game? What game? Oh, the one Atlus released, right? The American release of Disgaea? I thought you guys didn't like the American release. First, you say that American release sucks, and then you're complaining because the anime doesn't resemble it. And, don't give me that crap about playing the Japanese version. The Japanese track wasn't included, and I don't expect any of you Japanophiles to know the difference between the two even if it were included.
What the fuck are you on?

The American release did have the Japanese track and obviously the game was still the same even if the voice acting and certain expressions were changed.

I even praised the English localization of the game and here you go flaming me for hating the English voice acting?? You aren't making any sense.

Everything seems so average? Compared to what? Fullmetal Alchemist, with all 52 episodes finished? Magikano? Shuffle? Hantsuki? In case you were wondering, the last three received the same reviews at first. What review? "OMG ANOTHER HAREM ANIME SO FUCKING BORING OMGWTFLOL" And, then we literally had to cut down on the bandwidth for those because you guys kept sucking them up like you were a fleet of Oreck vacuum cleaners. Our DDL page literally broke within minutes.
It seemed average as in I did not see quality. I know quality when I see it and in episode 1 the only quality I saw (and heard) was Flonne. Everything else was either bad or acceptable in my opinion.

Now please stop with the fan subbing since you obviously can't handle it. Or perhaps you should make your subs a bit worse so people wouldn't download them so much? Now that's a thought!
