I did a little research. Unfortunately, my early volumes of the Dazzle manga are currently packed away, but I did find out a few things on the net that refreshed my memory.
Spoiler for ep 1 & manga vol 1:

The first episode was fairly interesting overall, though I didn't get most of the dialogue (I still need some subs). Many things happened and a ‘proper’ introduction was somehow missing, but I liked the characters thus far, especially the girl.
i believe it's a series. |

Rahzel and Alzeid's relationship builds more slowly in the manga—but it was a bit too slow, so it's not surprising they gloss over it in the anime. The real character dynamic of the manga doesn't start until Baroqueheat shows up, so I understand why they would want to introduce him earlier.
Baroqueheat and Alzeid knew each other previously, and how he came to be traveling with the two of them is kind of complicated. Maybe the 2nd episode will flash back to that. |

Ugh....you know normally I'm not roped into a series by lolibait and a cast alone (okay fine maybe the former a little), but given the other offerings this season, these two points have actually become a draw. I'm in for a couple episodes at least....or possibly not. We'll see, but this show has suddenly become the most interesting thing to air this season to me.

^ Ah, so it wasn't too far off from what I though - thanks for the summary
Seems like the dived into this headfirst so I hope they would go back and patch up some holes. Via time skips, flashbacks or whatever, I just hope we get to see the team forming

Am I the only one who thinks the pacing is just nice? Story is coherent, characters aren't emo, no stupid fanservice, and nothing seems to feel out of place. Definitely one of the better first episodes I have seen.

Saw an unconfirmed report that this will only be 10 epis long which (to me) is really short! But this might explain why epi 1 felt so rushed but considering some manga readers arent to where the story will be by epi 10, we all might see new stuff.
Course this is unconfirmed, so if anyone hears anything else, let us know btw thanks for the summary Impz.

I watched the preview for ep. 2, and the story it will cover is from volume 4—chapter 27. Unless they're somehow conflating Elmer and Vincent in the anime, I don't think this will show the backstory of how Baroqueheat joined up with Rahzel and Alzeid.
It's a oneshot chapter, of which there are very few of after Baroqueheat joins up. Maybe they want to do some simple stories before starting the longer ones. But it's not a bad sign, since the episode title is the same as the chapter title, which makes it look like the episode will cover only one chapter. Maybe this series won't rush through things after all. Still, even if they do go back and show Baroqueheeat's meeting with them later, the way Baroqueheat is introduced in the manga (you don't know if he's friend or foe when he first shows up) will be somewhat ruined by first showing him as part of their trio. |
