| 01:18 ohh yehhh 15:49 nice grab Dat after-ED pic. 6/10 for this ep. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Wasn't that bad. The animation was pretty good, and a show revolving around trains sound pretty unique to me. |
| The ED song is too good for this anime. Too much pointless boob-service. Presentation was too "standard" and boring. 2/10 so far. I suspect I'll be dropping this by the next episode. |
  |
| That was extremely... disappointing actually. I guess I set my expectations too high. I thought at least the animation will stay pretty right? Nope. For a first episode, things got lazy fast. Especially the fight against the thugs. I'll give it a few more eps. |
| Pretty interesting setting. And the ED video is really good. |
| dafuq did I just watch? |
| Unique overarching plot and setting marred by an abundance of cliches, pitifully shameless fanservice, and really boring, by-the-book characters. I don't know if I can see myself sticking with these bland cookie-cuttercharacters for the length of the entire series. Needless to say, this first episode was pretty lame. I was slightly, SLIGHTLY surprised when the shy girl purposely leaned on MCs shoulder. You don't normally see that sort of behavior from that archtype, especially not in the first ep. And has anyone posted a gif for when she was on the ladder? That ass was fat. B) |
| did anyone notice? at 7:41 he shot without the earmuff and next scene, he got it on again and this series... well guess i'm getting to old for this Genres: Action?? seriously? |
| Don't understand quality story writing, but in the entertainment side it's not too exciting. Will it be like Library War, with the politics between romance story ? Maybe I can enjoy it more if I'm a railway otaku... which sadly I'm not. Albeit, railway otaku is even more niche than military otaku |
| Packed full of generic moments, cliched muscle head guy friend, typical portrayal of dumb muggers...and a boring MC. Not a good impression. The girls aren't much better. Sakurai doesn't really think with her head and Haruka's screentime basically equals fanservice. I am quite taken by the setting. That's about the only positive. Though it is enough to keep me watching since it's certainly not something I've seen before. Really hoping the characters will become more interesting. |
 |
| Okay so they shoot revolvers in training and use hand guns for their lovely work experience. I won't ask why to any of this... but... Not cool to use such violence on mere purse snatchers. And who the hell would chase after them to that extent... these kids just wanted to test their MAD SKILLS to kick their asses somehow thinking it's still the right thing o.O Oh well I'll probably just watch this for the heck of it, get a few laughs. Art style is nice too. Just have to laugh at those information explosions about some random TRAIN that they bring up randomly. Like what the hell, TRAINS?! They're just TRAINS, lmao what's so interesting... |
 |
| I like the story and the characters so far. ^___^ The fan service is a bit too much for me though. All in all a good start and I'll stick with it n____n |

MorteTorment said: *busts up laughing at the response to not even start this series due to the fanservice gif* Dear god are you people pathetic!! You haven't seen the first episode, so you clicked on a topic filled with spoilers for the first episode? Yeah right. You weren't interested to begin with, and you just looked for an easy target to complain about. As for myself, I think it was a pretty damn entertaining opening. The action is intense, the main character and his romantic interest are very likable, and it put a smile on my face. The only thing that I don't like is the soundtrack. Oh, and UFO, the purse snatchers had a bloody knife, and tried to stab one them, Hell yeah they were right to kick their asses. 2/10 |
| The fan service is pretty nice and sigh, another generic main character. Why is it so hard to make a MC not generic? The anime was pretty boring and if it doesn't pick up by episode 2 I'm dropping it. |
oneroaddict said: you cant just talk about Rail System and trains for 20 minutes...i bet even you wouldnt watch a show like thatOK starting episode. Eh, I am not gonna be too shallow and overreact to the oppai fanservice - it is so common it is irrelevant as a base to judge, not like it was overused (yet), anyway. All the 4 main characters are rather cliche, though, so are practically all the comedic attempts. I will stay tuned and just hope they will focus on the main thing at hand: nationalized rail system, and not shift much focus to the weekly doses of romance and ecchi. |
 |
| It's alright. |
| The characters in this show arent any more generic than the characters in Log Horizon, D-Frag or Haganai. This show is low rated because younger american viewers probably don't like trains as much as video games or high school. |
| Best parts?: -Iwaizumi -The ending -And the cool looking trains |
 |
| Fan-service? Unrealistic bewb physics? I think I'll stay for the delicious socialist idealism of a nationalized rail industry. |
| Cliches are cliches. I'm fine with the fan service but there should be a limit to how big oppai can be. Besides that, it seems like a fun series, I'll stick with it for the entertainment. |

| Episode 1 is kinda rush, the training end in 1 episode? The Fight scene is okay The Best is The ED song :D |
 |
| So the premise about being a security force for trains is interesting and unique except for the unavoidable fact that anime main characters can only be teenagers. Anyways, still a really fun episode. So much train porn the way same way Aria the scarlet ammo is about gun porn. It was nice to see the voice actors of Rikka Takanashi and Yuuta Togashi reunited, and to see Brynhildr in the Darkness's Kotori again since she looks identical. |
 |
| Pretty entertaining for eps 1. The knowledge bout train was deep too. Hoping the group called "RJ" will make it more entertaining. |
| Keep moving forward |
twisting said: That was rather bad tbh. Anyone caught the scene were kirito was shooting and all of a sudden wore ear protection when he wasnt before? That continuity... Just an anime to pass the time... |
| Anime about trains and customer safety... Let's see how they can make this interesting. Liking it so far. |

| it was alirght i remember seeing a Doujinshi for Rail Wars last year so i was kinda surprised when i saw it get green lighted i dunno what to put this under though action/SoL? ecchi never seen a anime about trains so for that simple fact ill keep watching, and yeah i'm okay with fanservice every now and then but they went a little bit overboard with this |
 |
| lol might be good for a laugh, besides ive seen worse so ill pick this one up. |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
| Sigh... You guys do realize that the fanservice level was very less than what we normally see in anime like this, right? I just hope the rest of episodes are so good that everyone is dumbfounded, I can only hope. |
 |
| It was kind of boring, though I'll stick with for at least second episode... But that setting is really appalling. Trains...seriously?? And teenagers as security patrol equipped with guns to guard trains???Do they transfer diamonds or what? :DD Someone must have been really high to come up with this. |

| As we can see, having both a rookie director and bad series composition leads to one crappy first episode... |

| Rikka and Yuuta reunited! |
| This is like Police Academy: the Animu. Regardless of how stupid everything seems so far, I feel like I'm going to enjoy this one this season. |
 |
| the opening and ending songs are really catchy wow those oppai the first episode felt kinda rushed. everything went by pretty fast seems like an ok series, ill watch a few more episodes :) |

Akanezora said: Haha, pretty much this tbh. And hmm Haruka's special someone is obviously Naoto. Gonna be fun to watch how that turns out. The OP sounds great too.You know what? I fucking enjoyed this shit. Ecchi, boobies, good actions and TRAINS. I'll surely keep watching it for my usual weekly dose of genuine fun. I have no regrets. Guys stop quoting that bouncy gif, my wood can't handle all this plot. |
 |
| I'm cool with the concept but what I really like is the OP and ED. |
ＲＥＡＬＩＴＹ ＩＳ Ａ ＣＲＡＰＰＹ ＧＡＭＥ  |
| Seems like a fairly generic ecchi anime but its nothing terrible so far :) |
| The premise was nice, but I felt like the first episode was wasted with the rushed training stuff - and 3DCGI trains is just not the right way to fulfill the expectations we had based on the novels illlustrations. Well, I liked both opening and ending theme and the character design is pretty cool like it was expected. Let's see if it's worth watch from now on. |
... |
| Loved it. I can't wait to see more. Krackle said: Exactly, haha.This is like Police Academy: the Animu. |
 |
| Disappointing first episode. I mean, if you're going to put ecchi elements in an anime show, you need to do it right and at minimum do it at the level of To Love Ru Darkness in terms of ecchi-ness (doing it at a higher level than that is even better), otherwise don't even bother putting in all this gigantic bouncy boobs ecchi fanservice crap because it's not satisfying at all and adds nothing to the value of the show. Overall first episode had: terribly executed plot, generic characters, not enough action, and terrible ecchi. 3/10 for first episode. |
