Spoiler for episode 7:
Honestly, I don't get what they stand to gain from withholding the anime from the rest of the world for 6+ months. It being available worldwide wouldn't have an impact on the views it gets on Netflix JP, would it? I get it's probably because they want to make dubs in as many languages as possible before releasing it, but it seriously sucks. Good thing we have some awesome fansubbers working on this.

I just started this show last night and I'm really enjoying what I see so far. Makoto, Laurent, Abby, and all the rest of the gang. A modern-day Robin Hood tale that has quite a great appeal.
Spoiler for Arc 1:
Spoiler for Arc 2:

Just watched Episodes 9 and 10.
I loved it, the colours, the action, and the big heist. But most of all: Spoiler for Episodes 9 and 10:
My brain's too fried from work, so I don't have many words left to spare. The caper was absolutely entertaining, adding yet another love note for Singapore as a destination for glitz and glamour. Hard not to like that. I'm biased. |

I liked second arc a bit more than the first one despite the fact that it has far less twists. Though, I still think Makoto is to generic as MC. He makes a lot of dumb things.

This series is getting better and better, and I'll go out on a limb and say it's easily the best show this season that not enough people are paying attention to. I've long been of the opinion that anime needs to expand its horizons and start incorporating broader sensibilities into original productions, instead of staying stuck in tropes and inside jokes that only the hardcore domestic subculture would enjoy.

I disagree with you all.

I finished watching the first arc.
It was nice, but it felt too much like stuff that happened around and to the MC, and not enough stuff that the MC did. Then again, when the MC does something, it's stealing money from old ladies or ruining a tourist's vacation, so maybe it's just as well. |
