| "Perfect adaptation does not exists" IT EXISTS NOW AND IT'S OSHI NO KO, IM SO FUCKING THRILLED. AS AN ANIME ONLY (I WANTED TO READ THE MANGA BUT WHEN ANIME GOT ANNOUNCED I MADE UP MY MIND AND STARTED WAITING FOR IT NOW ITS HERE!) IT SUPRASSED MY EXPECTATIONS. PERFECT. 10/10 |
 |
| Oh, right, okay, this is pretty good isn't it !! |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| Am I the only one who felt reminded of Urobutcher's offing of Mami in Madoka ep3? I remember how shellshocked I was when I read the corresponding manga chapter... |
| I didn't know what I was expecting but it wasn't this. and I thought the biggest surprise of this episode would be that it ran for nearly an hour and a half. I'm pretty excited. |
| Considering how hard it usually is for me to watch movies and movie-length episodes due to a poor attention span combined with the fact that I've already read the manga, it's insane how entertaining this prologue managed to be. I do like seeing stories I've already gone through once be brought to life on screen: there's just something about seeing the events from a new light and managing to catch on cues you didn't have time to pick up the first time around, but this one was just a whole new experience in general. There's so much good foreshadowing as things fall into place, piece by piece, all brought together by phenomenal visuals, stellar sound design (B-Komachi songs were absolute bangers btw!!! straight feedback from your certified idol fanatic truly) and a great cast. Even though I think some of the more minor plot twists, such as the reveal of Ruby's true identity, could have used a bit slower of a pacing to let the viewer truly digest what they're witnessing, I can only imagine what a treat this so far splendid adaptation is going to be for the anime-onlies – can't wait for next episode. Astonishing job from Doga Kobo!! |

| Watching this animated was a different level of pain T-w-T |
 |
| Well God damn, This was one of the best first episodes of any anime I've ever seen (Atleast what I can recall) So excited and left me in awe! |
 |
| I actually cried at the end, even though I read the first volume. The anime so far made me care more about the characters than de manga did. Can't wait for the next episode! (since vol 2 isn't physically out yet here... and for the first time ever I avoided spoilers) |

 This is a cartoon site, you clown. Elitism in general is cringe enough already. Let people enjoy stuff. Reminder to stay hydrated and read Umineko No Naku Koro Ni |
Nani? You've got my curiosity, but now you got my attention ... |
 |
| There was a lot of hype for this anime, and now I'm not surprised, this was freaking amazing. Didn't expect Ai to die so young, but the time-skip makes for a great potential in the story. I loved Aqua's creepy vibes the most! |

caron said: bro should atleast click the profile and see the numbers before commentingWatching anime for the first time? Anime always mixed comedy into very serious shows and it works. Stuff thats depressing for 100% of the airtime in unwatchable. |
| Wonderful adaptation of the prologue arc… the made the crucial “moment” even better than the manga.. one of the best first episode in my memory |
 |
| this was an interesting anime the plot was nice it also gave me chills and I also cried when AI died |
| Wake up to REALITY!! |
| Well, I wasn't on the hype train for this, and wasn't expecting anything particularly great either, but I guess the hype is real now. Pretty good premiere and a very solid prologue; exemplary storytelling, very interesting premise, good execution so far. The person responsible for making this a 90 minutes episode definitely knows what they're doing, it's good to see an interesting story getting adapted by a capable team, and while I haven't read the manga I believe this is pretty good, definitely the best episode of the season, and I guess with Skip to Loafer and Oshi no Ko this is now a pretty good season. Well, let's see, I believe this could be a solid 7/10 or even a 8/10, hopefully it will continue with this top quality. |

| There were few little things i didn't like like kids unique eye which is bigger than another. I totally liked the story (prologue) if it isn't a mastepiece it is at least very good. So far i think it is the best itle of the season. I hope the quality won't drop. Actually i kind of felt it was long didn't expect it to be so long, i was so engrossed that I didn't notice how time flew by. |
 |
| I really don't think I dig the narrative going on here, it just feels like they're trying to explicitly make fun of idol fanatics, because otherwise this first episode would have been a full fucking 10/10. I cried my hardest, and I am EXTREMELY interested to see where they take this. Please just lay off the super cheesy narratives. |
 |
| Wtf How is this anime so GOOD, I had heard it was gonna be good but this... Wow. How did it make me cry on the first episode! I'm at a loss for words.. You must watch this in one sitting, the impact will be so much greater. Just Wow... Edit: I'm still crying even after half an hour.. |
