I picked this up due to the comments mostly, and am glad I did. Poster and synopsis seemed kinda Meh though. I think I'll stop reading those and just watch a few episodes in before straying away from now on.

Zombie Magical Girl (except he's a boy) with a chainsaw? Ninja Vampire? Kicks which aren't really kicks? I don't know what's going on anymore... This series is so weird in that positive, wacky way. Do want more. I can only hope it doesn't end up being totally unwatchable later on.

.. That should not be a problem ^__^
I would be curios to see who the blonde girl ends-up being ..
a new character or, well; it would explain why he was brought back to life
and ends-up wearing a magical girls dress 8-) :asd: :rofl:

Really this show is so unpredictable, all bets are off for genre. It goes from silliness to weirdness to drama to magical girl... guy... ... whatever... to action to horror all in a single episode. It's more random than family guy at times. I totally foresaw a giant whale wearing a buttoned suite firing lazer beams :uhoh: .

What's next? Since they seem to like using sea creatures... a giant squid?.

Seriously, during that scene with Yuu I was like "JUST HUG HER ALREADY" ...though that would have spawned more than just one whale >______> Probably my favorite show this season.

Well... My plot instincts tell me something happened in Yuu's past that released a magic freeing her hatred/anger side or something. So basically a clone is going around killing people and the souls are being used to either power it up or create these giant creatures "Megalos". I don't think yuu has anything to do with them really. Seems the most obvious.

There is another way it could be though that is typical, we find it in blood+. Evil twin sister that doesn't value life whatsoever and thinks humans don't deserve to live, apocalypse, etc etc..., and there was something in the past that involved yuu and her, maybe even a love triangle... I am sure of one thing though, the murderer is not a typical human, the eyes glowing red during the kill gave that away too easily.

Too early to make any serious decisions. I like these kinds of stories that don't give the whole story away at the beginning then play off of it for the remainder of the series/manga. It's a trait not found in many anime/manga anymore IMO.
