Also about the visuals they are supposed to represent real human being but there are a ton of parts not well drawn at all.

| The op sounds like a 2009 trap remix lol But the pacing of this episode tho.. wow that was really fast paced. It felt like 20 things were going on simultaneously. The animation though. Good shit MAPPA. Really looking forward to this |

| Well, that was crazy, and fun. I hope it continues like that but I am more concerned about the budget, because it feels like this series will be very expensive. The opening is fine but the wubwubwubs threw me off a little. |

Ngl, the future of anime is looking grim if these webtoon anime keep getting traction.God that was absolutely awful. I literally cringed at 3 points during the episode. I confess I only picked this up because MAPPA was doing it, and I generally never drop anything before I've seen a third of a season, but if its all like this, its gonna be a tough watch. All hype and no substance. The jokes were flat and the character designs were meh too. Let's hope it improves. |

Idk about that, can be that MAPPA's people are just talented, i remember that OPM's animation (S1) is also not expensive according to them, just talented people in their makings. |
MegamiRem said: They kinda do... Here is the thing: material things obey the law of physics unless there is something that explicitly causes them to bend or break. Nothing in this show points to characters having bodies like Luffy from what I have seennightcrawlercyp said: It's supernatural and laws of physics don't matter on supernatural cases do they lol?So if an anime is fantasy it should respect no physics laws for no reason? |
| I liked this premiere, and the action was lit. Even if the story ends up not being good, let's hope Mappa can keep up that action quality consistently for the whole show. However, definitely not a fan of that OP holy shit. Not much of a dubstep guy tbh. But I'm looking forward to continuing this show. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| What a great episode. What a start to a show. OP was great. ED was great. Animation is awesome. AND over all of that the fighting Choreography... my god that is just amazingly good. Like so fuckin' good. I really liked the first episode. Really hyped for this series. |

Mario_Isla said: uhmmm i guess i can see that, i still dont think that calling the animation bad is fair, tho. I dont even liked mappa i just knew this would look good visually because park is directing itMegamiRem said: Bad visual? Bad animation? Lmao wut? Care to elaborate what good animation and visuals are then lmao? The animation is really good, but it's so unoriginal, all Mappa animes have the same art style. I think because that, some people can think that the animation is bad. |
| skipping chapters is no good for this webtoon it will affect the characters development and harder for us to understand the storytelling. |

AnimeFA78N said: Okay guys i need to ask something hows this episode is compare to TOG Episode 1? pls give me your thoughts? Imo it was way better than the first episode of TOG. |
|
| I reckoned I probably wouldn't like this show too much considering the themes and genre and... ehh yeah no I'll probably skip this. Jut far too many things I dislike in anime in the same place here Might give it another episode or two just in case but I'm not too optimistic |
  |
| Decent first episode. The fights are cool, the animations are fluid, but not a fan of the OP. This first episode is already better than the entirety of TOG. |

nightcrawlercyp said: Honestly i i dont know what an HC computer is, i googled it and alot of stuff apeared, but the biggest one seemed that it just means home computer? Meh, i dont care, that argument is fucking trash, calling me a kid inst a very good one too, im pretty much a kid tho, im pretty young, but honestly i dont mind. Oh and i dont know how to draw, thats that mean anything? obviusly not, do you need to know how to cook like gordan ramsay to apreciate his food? Probably not right? And another example is yuichiro fukushi, he is my favourite animation producer, he doesnt know how to draw, but he knows which people KNOW how to draw, so yea that argument is also not that great. The shading on the faces, i can kinda see i guess, its industry average pretty much, not amazing yea.Dust_Eyezz said: Then maybe you should rewatch it... not very generic from my pov. about CGI... is clear you grew up with movies that abuse CGI and that look like garbage so you have no idea how real stuff should look like. Arifureta and good story? What did u smoke? Arifureta is the most generic garbage ever? It's like any other Isekai betray kinda stuff? Have you even watched the same arifureta as me? African meme movies have better CGI... VP2003boi said: oh its obvius you dont know anything about animation, do you even know the basic principles? like the famous 12? Because it really doesnt seem like it if you are mainly talking about physic laws, muscle and bones, i REALLY dought that in 20 years you know less than me who has just been interesting in animation in about a year, so no need to lie here. And you complain about the shading, and yea no shading, nope, none whatsoever, its not like the clothes were stupidly detailed with shade nope, obviusly not. kid.. you are clearly out of your league. You read some stuff here and there and think you know animation. The first animation I did was on an HC computer... have you even heard of stuff like this?

roppuri said: Idk about that, can be that MAPPA's people are just talented, i remember that OPM's animation (S1) is also not expensive according to them, just talented people in their makings. Good point. I remember the OPM staff saying their budget wasn´t that high, however OPM is one of the best looking recent anime out there. Let´s hope it continues this way honestly, since this series seems to be focused on fighting rather than a deep story or something like that. Not that I mind that though. |
roppuri said: The guy directing this is seong ho park, which is pretty much the shingo natsume (the guy who directed opm) of mappa, and crunchyroll tends to give a pretty decent production schedule so it would not surprise me if that it was the case and the "budget" was overall low.Pakumen- said: Well, that was crazy, and fun.

| It’s a nice start but it’s only the first episode, it’s still early. |

| This was a good first episode. The pacing was consistently manic, the voice acting was frantic, and the art visually pops even though the animation can’t always keep up. The sound effects are punchy and the music sounds like someone made it cocaine. The OP is kind of a tire fire but I weirdly like it? The ED totally slaps. If I rated it purely on enjoyment it’d get an 8/10. |

nightcrawlercyp said: uhmmm no i dont have 2 accounts. Saying cooking is the most basic skill of all is tecnicly correct and wrong at the same time, if it was so easy why do you think there is so many "pretentious garbage" when people can just follow the recipe, like you said, its never that simple. The computer is, again, not a good argument, first you knowing a computer isnt a good correlation to you knowing something about drawing, yes most animation is done in computers (although in japan is still mostly paper), does that mean that knowing an old computer make you know about animation? No, i could also ask my grampa about that and maybe he would know that computer, does he know how to draw? No. I also said i didnt know how to draw, i not that i didnt understand the basic principals of animation, and the process of japanese animation to be precise, because i do know, i search for that, like how you draw, i search for animation as a hobby. i dont see any bad of doing it, i saw your drawings, are they that impressive? No. Will i judge you for it? No, because honestly im much worse. Does that mean i know less than you about animation, obviusly not. If you want to learn more about animation, go to sakugabooru and hit the random button until you actually understand what animation is. To see the process of animation i recomend the strive for animation channel. There are also alot of people on twitter that show and talk about japanese animation, like randomsakuga, kvin, purplegeth, ashita, and alot othersVP2003boi said: Is a very old computer, knew only qbasic 4 .

| One of the best first episodes of anything I've seen in a while. |
 cunnysseur |
| That was actually a decent start It has started pretty slowly, but became intense quickly |
 |
| Pacing is crazy fast. Judging by that, the 13 episode count, and the visual teaser they've put out, I'm thinking they're gonna try and cover the entire first arc in 13 episodes which will be...interesting. |
 |
| GoH is a series that I hold really dearly and as someone who has been waiting for an adaptation to this for a few years, I couldn't have been more satisfied than I am now after watching this episode. Very fast paced but still didn't feel rushed at all. Amazingly adapted. Now, I know they have a lot of content to adapt and only 13 episodes to cram all that stuff. I do expect some cut content and some rushed episodes down the line, but for now I'm just happy they are doing it justice. |
| The animation, the voice acting, and the music are on point. I also like the OP and ED. Though compared to the original, the pacing seems too fast. Hopefully, this is the case just for the first episode. (I seriously don't want another ToG fiasco). I have faith in Mappa though, maybe they can pull this off even with this number of episodes to work with. Overall it was a fun and action-packed episode, I really enjoyed it. |

| Wow this was great. I'm glad, I had high hopes and I wasn't let down! Much much better than ToG! I didn't read the webtoon so I don't know what they left out, it was fine for a first episode, I hope things will be explained later. Thinking about it, it did seem very fast, but I enjoyed it. But I do hope they improve the pacing later. It was surprisingly funny for me, my kinda comedy! |
"If you accept everything you're told without question, you'll lose your ability to think. Even if you reached the same conclusion, it would still be worth analysing the reasons behind it." - Lacie Baskerville, Pandora Hearts |
| If this webtoon and ToG were hyped this much, I don't want to experience rest of them. |
| This anime is a piece of garbage. Those two chads and glasses girl look more like some mix of fujoshi's wet fantasies vs street fighter. |
| Hmm I thoroughly enjoyed it. At first It felt like they tried a bit too hard to make this upbeat but I just got rid of my cringy elitist mindset and decided to enjoy the ride. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| It's certainly the best animated thing of the season so far by a massive mile. It does, unfortunately, share the rest of the season's trend so far in not having any kind of plot, and nearly every character being a screaming ninny. Or perhaps it'd be more accurate to say that it has three plots, and only the most tenuous connection between them. It starts off with corrupt, uh, publishers I guess, lounging on a remote island, plotting to overthrow the government, except that the government is a dude who can psychically squash islands apparently. That's then dropped so we can check in with a kid who has a thing for helping old people chasing a mugger on a bike, running into what I assume are going to be his buddies, which include one screaming girl, a screaming rapper, and the rarest gift of all, just some quiet, competent dude. At that point, they get half dropped from the show to switch to a montage of the titular tournament. By the time focus switches back to a named character rather than demo reels of randos, the episode unceremoniously ends. |
| I legit didn't expect it to be so much fun. Too early to say it's "good", but it's a blast to watch and those ~20 minutes went by in a blink of an eye. wtb ep 2 like, right now |
