Many more changes. If I required this to follow the manga, I would be frothing at the mouth. But since I don't, it's okay. Not great, but okay. I really do like Kuro, and Keita is improving. And I did like Hiou's voice -- the guy who meets glasses guy at the bottom of the escalator. It's by Hamada Kenji, who was Kuze in ef melodies, Nomiya in Honey & Clover, and George in Paradise Kiss. Love that voice.
But lots of serenade_beta's complaints have merit. Spoiler for ep3:

Compulsive lying annoying male lead (not sure what his name is because that's how much I like him), is one character I will not come to like. Does this idiot not feel/think/or have any desire to do anything seeing Kuro get beaten up so much?
Kuro is cute, absolutely cute. Lack of self awareness and conservative just makes her shine. Really hard watching her type of character get beaten up so bad, especially by guys who are doing it without holding back. Feels good when watching Kuro give them a smack down! |

I'm personally in favor of this being 'different' from the manga, but yes, admittedly there are some flaws in the way they're going about Kurokami.

Evil glasses is clearly nothing more than a Root. (( since we see him pictured alongside Keita )) Quote:

Well after three episodes I've decided not to continue with this series as it just isn't my thing. And that's not because of the damn changes that everybody is so obsessed about as the same goes for the manga as well which just isn't holding up as quality reading material for me either. Now I'm left to wonder if there is anything else I want to watch this season.

Of course, holding out until Spring is prob a better idea. Spring 09 looks better than this season.

I watched the first two eps. and, since this is the third time I see a character doing something "unique", I can't help but post a mediocre comment. Please don't get mad at me. Here goes:
IMO, Kuro helped Keita out of fear (to die from starvation). The other two times were: Spoiler for Shuffle and Rental Magica:
My senseless point is the actions taken are virtuous but the character's reason(s) is(are) not. |

Episode 3 is the first one that actually screamed "wow this episode sucks". Here's to hoping it recovers.

Well at this point probably going to keep watching just to hopefully see the guys behind this get beaten to a pulp. Intentionally setting up people to get killed like that. Nice to see the teacher flying through a window for his perfect society stuff.

I don't know the manga so I can't say how much better or worse than the anime it is but up to ep. 3 it's quite interesting (to say the least).
Honestly, it's not very much original, after all there are some serious similarities with Shakugan no Shana, still I can't deny the fact that Kurokami has it's own style and this is a major '+' to the serie. |

I was getting mad Shana vibes in the syncro scene. There have been far too many similar Shana scenes, and kuro really kind of looks like Shana when her hair is tinged red.
Is the source material any better? Eps 1 and 2 showed promise, 3 took all that and the kitchen sink and threw it out the window.
