Um, well, that was definitely an episode.

It was waaay too faced paced, it was kinda hard to care for any of the characters when it jumps around that fast. Shu's personality also seemed a little...inconsistent. Hopefully it slows down a bit next ep.

On the flip side, the animation was pretty freaking awesome, it got very smooth towards the end <3

Not gonna lie...I think Im the only person in the world who thinks Inori is weird looking >>

ah k, I can see basic similarities with Code Geass :/ Anyway I would have dropped it after seeing this first episode if it weren't for 2 things:
1. Production I.G ZOMGANIMATION. Typical nice motion usage as expected from this studio during the action scenes.
2. Exciting insert songs and music.

Hmmm.... not too sure what to think here.

I mean, I LIKE IT BECAUSE ITS PRETTY TO LOOK AT. But I don't know what the hell is going on. Is Inori magical? Or is it science-gone-haywire? I'll give it three more eps to see if it gets me hooked. But so far, I think it's good.

Also, "Ouma Shu"? As is the city from "Avatar: the Last Airbender" Anybody else catch that?

2 episodes in and I'm sold.
Spoiler :
Now that he's back in school, maybe the pace of the show will slow down just a bit. Things were actually starting to get too intense.
