Still pretty interesting with some answered questions

The whole blotchy marked dying guys was due to a virus. The UA virus named after the Swahili word for flower and death

This ditz Maria was infected but saved by her father who was the head of a PharmD company and developed an anti-virus but she suffered some amnesia

Canaan has beef with Alphred and her sister. Her sister (who's name I can't remember) does not have the Synthesia power but I'm assuming Alphred does (she got mad skillz yo). Still wondering who's the guy who keeps mono-logging about C and A. Maybe their father? Or "Creator"? Alphred was looking at a package I'm pretty sure came from said voice over dude

Canaan's ability allows her to block bullets?! Da fuck?

The waitress was the chick from the shooting gallery game! I loled at that and the meat bun stuff.

And that taxi guy was fucking awesome. Even if he made no sense he brought that kinetic action that this show seems to strive on. His taxi question was definitely the highlight quote of the day.

That old guy was the brother of the kid driving? Seems weird since he's so much older...maybe has something to do with the strain of the virus he was infected with. He was obviously enhanced and deranged.

Animation was still pretty good. Lot of movement and action. Some gimping at some points (C's pole vault was weird looking) The run through the back alleys was neat.
Show reminds me alot of a good action thriller at least in terms of its action choreography.

and motherfucking Basara commerical! FUCK YEA!

The Taxi Driver was quite badass, but seemed a bit random ^^
Still a good episode, the old man was cool too..
I probably regret this post by now.

Still not really sure if I like this series. Why were their rooms completely covered in blood, though? It's not like anyone was killed in those rooms - and the blood didn't really serve a purpose of distracting them from the fact that the negatives were stolen, either, so... Yeah. Weird.

The taxi driver was awesome. How do you get a taxi off of the top of a building? Hmm. A crane, I suppose? XD

I still have no idea wtf is going on, but I like it!!

Why did I not watch this show when it premiered?
Oh that's right had to wait for Sentai's crappy dub!
Actually I have to give it to Sentai on this one. I usually am not a huge fan of their dubs, but this one is actually pretty good. The only voice I don't like is Alphard, but the rest are great.

This show is everything I want...Badass chix with guns!!!
And big bouncy Manju Titties!! LMAO!!

May have to buy this one, watching on TAN now. Have to check to see if Sentai released this on BD as well.

Urahara Out!!

Edit: Yea they did release a BD set for this, now I want it, but I can't decide if I wanna put this on-hold and buy it. Or watch it first and decide from there. Decisions decisions.

I really liked taxi chase part, than that scene with that old guy and his knifes in his hands. That restourant part was pretty funny. I like how each character has an unrevealed story behind them. Everything in episodes (at least in first two) is just perfect and smooth. I'm glad I started watching Canaan and I sure want to finish series :P

Ok episode.
A cat girl at the end huh? Why is she here? Not that interested in her.
Don't really like Marie.
Lol like the old man fighting Canaan. He got some skills. Until he died. R.I.P to him.
Alphard is a cute girl.
The ending is so smooth.

Great so far, besides that I don't understand much. Episode 1 I understood the drug and the setting, some basic stuff. But now there's a lot of characters and things I don't understand.

Quite a nice follow up episode, the action is still superb but still little known about the story. The ending was quite interesting though Neko Onnanoko :3

What was up with the bloodied rooms? Did they have a fight over who got to bring back the negatives? . . .

What the hell was up with that taxi driver? They get in, they tell him to hurry, and he says no. Then they say it's an emergency, and he replies there's not a slow taxi in the town, suggesting he would have gone with them on it in the first place, and comes across as if he's always been this insane...? So why say no in the first place at all then? Did he just switch mentalities all of a sudden? Inconsistent.

Also, I hope that girl in the shop who was stuffing food into her clothes to fake big breasts gains some relevance later on and this was just her introduction, or else 90% of the screentime spent with her was absolutely pointless and added nothing to the story. I have a feeling she won't be returning, but I'll give the series the benefit of the doubt for now and assume it isn't stupid enough to include something like that for no good reason.

Plus, that woman Canaan was talking with claimed Canaan's apparently not even old enough to have had her period yet... What? She doesn't look NEARLY that young. Maybe that's explained later on, but until it's addressed, it's just another thing bothering me while I'm watching.

Is it just me or does anyone else have trouble understanding the plot?
Did I have to read the manga first to get this? Or is it all explained over the course of the series?

On the plus side, the characters are interesting, though they seem to take nothing (including car chases, public shootouts and twisted deaths) seriously.

PS: Taxi driver is best Chinese driver I've ever seen!

Liang Qi confirm wants Alphard's pussy. Also Cummings has a level next to a dog or he has kinky interests to be a masochist.

Okay, the second episode was kinda strange.
Too cheesy for me, and it still has some strange fanservice. ):

And how the guy get electrocuted by the high tension cables? I mean, he wasn't even touching the ground.

I knew it, but buns shouldn't bounce like that!

Nakata Jouji as a Taxi Driver!
Taxi Drivers in movies and anime.. They're just way too awesome xD
I really hope I can meet that Taxi Driver again in the next episode!

I don't think that's how the electric cables work, but sure.. Anime logic, you can't questioned it xD

Ending lol.. nyaa?

There seems to be a lot of fluff in this series with little content so far. Here's hoping more will be explained.

That was a good fight scene. That old guy had poor situational awareness. I wonder what his mark means. Is it also related to that Ua infection?
Maria is so sexy with her hyperactive personality. I want to lick her so badly!
Was that Hakkoh in a cat outfit? Very sexy! I want to lick her too!
