As the 1st episode will air in few hours, can Moderators move this thread to Current Series section?

As it turns out, the first episode is actually Episode.0

Spoiler for Ep.0:

So that is how it works? (I am sure it is written up somewhere in a FAQ sheet or some such doc that I omitted to read.

)

Fine by me, though.

I am very much looking forward to this one!

am i the only one that didn't like both the OP and ED? I preferred the old one better. Maybe the songs will sink into my head throughout the series.

Spoiler for Ep. 00 OP:

Kismet-chan · 2011-01-05, 01:20

I can't wait to see epi 0 just to hear the new OP and ED. I highly doubt either one will top Kataomoi (I adore that song dearly), but we'll see!

Funkatron · 2011-01-05, 01:52

Awesome ep even if it didn't have a a lot of Sawako. I'm liking Kurumi more now. Can't wait for the first proper episode.

Oh and Maru-chan in a cape = instant win

jerkette · 2011-01-05, 02:01

GGAAAAHHH!! Im in seventh heaven. I dont know where I'll be as this series goes on! Wait! Im a little dizzy....

Ok. I love everything about this first episode. The Opening is so delicious. I cant help but repeat it several times.

I love the new OP and ED and they actually show all the main characters this time.

Spoiler for episode 0:

Sour-Do · 2011-01-05, 03:41

Best recap episode ever. Very surprising considering that it was told from the perspective of the character you almost loved to hate (due to events in season 1), played by an infamous seiyuu whom nowadays former fans also love to hate.

Great start to what I'm expecting to be an incredible season 2.

I did like both the OP and ED, but I too find myself prefering the old ones far more.

Always loved Kurumi during the first season because she is (IMHO) one of the characters that added a lot to the show on the whole. Seeing a recap from her perspective (with a few new scenes along the way), left me with a much better impression than what most recaps usually do.

Kazuma77 · 2011-01-05, 04:49

Loving the recap of the 1st season! Can't wait for new episode!

Sound of Azure · 2011-01-05, 05:08

Loving the new ED so much, and I guess the OP will grow on me over time.

I liked the shift in perspective to Ume for the recap, it really helps illuminate her point of view. Only bad thing is it has me chomping at the bit for episode 1.

Ah well, back to refresh my memory with the manga!

Ultra Violet · 2011-01-05, 06:09

Hnngg!! Finally, it has arrived!

The OP was great. The animation, timing and feeling was just right. The ED was...so-so, but then again, I didn't like Kataomoi the first times I heard it either.

The episode in general was nice and all but maybe not a great choice for a first episode.

It isn't really the first episode. As you notice in one of the first scenes in the anime where they show the title of the episode, it said "Episode 0". So it's like a special.

Revan21 · 2011-01-05, 06:36

Yeah, even MAL lists it as a special episode, apart from the second season.

Not me, I still like her more than Sawako.
At least she had the courage to confess and it was a breautiful scene too

Yep, Aya Hirano is commenting events throughout the episode But it did have some new winter scenes with her walking across town, sometime before Valentine's Days - and writing Sawako's name in her Death Note, multiple times __________________ Last edited by Revan21; 2011-01-04 at 15:21.

GreatTeacherKen Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: California	I love the new OP and ED and they actually show all the main characters this time. Spoiler for episode 0: This is one of the better recap episodes I've seen; I like how it's presented in a more natural way story-wise as memories of Kurumi on a lonely winter night as opposed to a rushed summary of the first season in chronological order. It refreshes the audience's memory of Kurumi's character and also serves as a nice transition to the next story arc. I also find it amusing how the most humiliating moments (besides a reference to the Pin misunderstanding) like the shoe falling on her head and Kuronuma completely misinterpreting her attempts to manipulate her, of her story arc weren't shown. I guess Kurumi really didn't want to remember those things.
