I just love all the complaining about lack of subs from people who are used to just getting rips straight from crunchyroll within hours. This sort of shit takes time, the fact that there's even a raw up is kind of a miracle. Try waiting months for subs of some things like I've had to for some OVAs and Movies like Yamato 2199 or Votoms or even years in the case of some older anime or those that would air during pre-crunchyroll times. Usually you didn't get subs till as long as 20 hours later if you were lucky.

Saw first episode, like I expected it was alright and kind of a combination of everything WIT has animated up to this point and some character and setting introductions. Music was pretty generic Sawano but of the tolerable sort so far and he manages to hold off on the vocal spamming at least until the final big action scene. It's all pretty damn textbook action anime so far and to be honest the animation wasn't as great as I expected and kind of choppy but the art quality looked above average for TV in a lot of scenes. Not the god tier quality some are making it out as. Like pure 7/10 tier premiere pretty much. This is probably the peak of the show too before it really starts going off the rails so not particularly high expectations.
>>
Subs are out
>>
>>139761406
Yes, he is. He may be smart in the sense that he invented a new gun and was able to stop his transformation, but he doesn't use his head in situations that matter.

He may not be a pussy but he's definitely not smart or logical. He needlessly put himself in danger to test his new toy. He lost his specimen because he couldn't keep his mouth shut because muh morals.
>>
It's not great, but not terrible. Watchable.
>>
First ep. 6/10
>>
>>139761420
How is it shit?
The first episode was amazing, and according to the people who saw the pre-screenings episode 2 and 3 are way better.
>>
>>139761629
He's quite full of anger and rage. I don't expect him to be Oberstein or any other cold genius.

I would say he has an above average level of intelligence for a teen and is into nerdy things with a motivation driving him, but otherwise he's not exactly brilliant or mature.

>>
>>139761699
How is it not? Did we not watch the same show?

Why the fuck don't they wait for the train to approach and stop before lowering the bridge (like they did for the first train?). They could've had the infected train just derail instead of ramming into the city.
>>
>>139761629
He does use his head in every situation.

He lost his specimens because a man was about to be wrongfully killed. Those police/bushi where not even following their own rules out of fear, he simply told them to calm down, enfore the law and lock the guy up.
He was the only logical person in the entire scenario, fuck him for caring about people right?

The invention of his weapon can possible save his world, just cause he has the balls to put to use his weapon doesn't make him stupid.
It was smart of him to lure the kabane to him home and actually use his weapon, now he knows it works.

You're being absurd if you think his actions are unjustified.

Losing the specimen was stupid. He couldn't prioritize. His research for the greater good or 1 faggot?

If he had died and the weapon had failed, the invention would've died with him. Stupid on gamble on his part. He could've tested it at least once before luring the zombie.

Cause the guy signaled them early, with the first train they got there, stopped, then signaled.

The men on the bridge just heard the signal and let down the bridge, none of them knew the zombies could hijack a train.

No it wasn't a typical zombie action show.
From the entire dynamic surrounding suicide bags, to the rural japan industrialization steam punk setting, with all the factions/class and society system in place.
This level of detail alone sets apart from the rest.

Not to mention it's not just a group of 3-5 survivors, it's an entire community of people all under attack, unlike your typic zombie action show.

Who signaled them? I'm not going to rewatch it, but from what I remember 1 guy was like "oh, train is arriving" and because of that they decided to drop the bridge.

You would think they would've implemented a system to keep dumb shit like this from happening.

I seriously doubt it's going to have much time to explore that so much as zombies and fanservice and craziness for another 11 episodes. If it does I'd be pleasantly surprised but Okouchi doesn't seem the type to go in depth on that sort of stuff in a short amount of time or at least not in a way that isn't stark and black and white.

Again, they should've implemented a system to check that a train isn't overrun before lowering the bridge.

Having a train stop and the conductor come out to signal would've been an easy solution to prevent the whole mess. The way they wrote the story was just lazy.

>>139762081

That's the part that kind of surprised me and sort of not. I was expecting a bit of a drop off but not for it to be so noticeably choppy in some scenes. Its like when they were adding all this detail and shading they didn't entirely realize that they still had to make it move. There were even some moments of QUALITY too but the Sakuga sets or what we got of them at least worked well enough. Its pretty obvious this shows going to have the usual WIT struggles already within the first episode kind of like how it went with Owari. They're just so uneven, one scene can look well above average for TV animation and then the one right after can look noticeably below.

I thought it was pretty good. I'm not going to lie though, there was some definite shades of AoT. At least the Mikasa like character has more personality.

It does make sense though, you could have figured it out if you would have used your brain.
>>
>>139761629
He makes some mistakes, but that doesn't mean he's an idiot, it means he's human. He's not the cool-headed glasses guy MC who logically makes every decision with cold calculation. He's the hot-blooded guy out for revenge who's also intelligent enough to make things go his way.

It's the first episode os god knows where this is going to go, but he put his feelings first about saving a man's life over just getting another specimen. That doesn't make him stupid, it sets the tone of his character as intelligent but emotional. Further, he clearly had figured out how he thought he was going to stop the virus long before he was ever attacked since he had that equipment on hand and at the ready. Yeah he's smart, but he's cocksure and given to emotion. So far he comes off as a consistent character. Though the mechanism by which he didn't die is not yet explained.

Now this is just about the character being "stupid." This isn't a statement about whether this show is going to be any good because it's only the first episode. But people who say it makes no sense are clearly too stupid to even watch cartoons.

It was obvious it's the other way around. Everyone thinks it's a supernatural thing but the MC, who thinks it's a virus. Except that his method of stopping the infection only makes sense in the real of magic. The whole thing is just stupid as fuck.

Choking yourself so that an infection or virus doesn't reach your brain is probably one of the dumbest things on the show. That's not how infections or viruses work. I get you're supposed to have a degree of suspension of disbelief but you have to admit that was retarded story writing.

If you choke yourself for a bit you don't prevent all blood flow to your brain.

If you successfully choke yourself, you'll become brain dead.

Virus/Infections cannot realistically be purged from the body so quickly that he only needs to stop blood flow for a few seconds.

Stupid, lazy writing.

This.
I was hoping he'd cut his arm off.
>>
>>139763997
That only put that choking machine in because the MC choking himself nearly to death in order to fight the nearly incoming death is ''badass''

There is nothing wrong with less shading for characters in the background.
Hell, be glad they have shading at all.

After 20 years of that shit you would think they would've implemented a safety mechanism for instances like this. Like a whistle code the conductor needs to do before the bridge is lowered.

It's plain and simple lazy writing. Drama/dumbshit happening for the sake of moving the plot forward.

Acting against the police when they are acting against the law is a citizen's duty.

MC is such an edgelord it's not even funny.

>>139763721
Inasmuch as it really doesn't matter unless it becomes a plothole later in the series, my guess is that the virus only spreads for so long, like until it reaches the heart, so restricting the brain's blood during that period means it just stops.

I honestly thought he was going to get the bionic arm just by cutting it off, but then how would he become HALF KABANE!?

I don't know why people are in a tizzy, I thought we all came here to watch a trainwreck that might accidentally turn out good rather than the other way around.
>>
>>139764056
The virus literally turns you into a zombie with super strength.
What's the point in realism?
>>
>>139764070
MC-kun said he didn't believe it was a magical. You're contradicting MC-kuns alleged knowledge.

I thought it was.
Unless it's anime original.
>>
>>139764191
It's still a virus that turns you into a zombie.
>>
>expecting realism in that setting.

Guess what. Cyberpunk makes zero sense as well.
Those that make the setting shit tho? No.

If anything i wonder why him nearly strangling himself to death changed his haircolor.
>>
>>139764206
Yep
>>
6/10 Most contrived garbage so far this season
>>
>>139764131
>Drama/dumbshit happening for the sake of moving the plot forward.
Yes, that's how plots work. If you want things to happen according to full causality and not the will of a writer, then stop bothering with fiction and just videotape a train station. Maybe if you're rich you could get someone to rotoscope it, even.

He has no idiotic actions, all of his actions have logical reasoning and justification behind them.
He's passionate, strong willed and very tough, he's also an active MC unlike the typical reactive character.

He's the best MC of 2016 so far.

MC was right about the Bushi as well since they spent most of the episode pointing their guns at civilians instead of kabane.
>>
>>139764331
HS is a crappy screencap. Might get decent subs in a few days.
>>
>>139764256
>Cyberpunk makes zero sense as well
Cyberpunk makes plenty of sense, because all the cybershit is a fairly reasonable expectation of the future, or at least it was 30 years ago.
And the cybershit really is just a plot device to develop characters.

Steampunk is distinct, despite having been kicked off by the same person.
>>
>>139764191
What if the MC is wrong and it's actually magical
>>
>>139764337
ok
>>
>>139764327
I know. My point simply was that the zombies being super strong and the infection being magic is perfectly fine.

Be it cyberpunk, steampunk or whatever.

The only thing i critize this episode for is the retardness that was train wrecking the wall and the lack of explaination for the sake of action.

First ep. out and Ikomafag already detected.

>>139764404
Then..instead of being able to stop a virus by choking yourself you can stop magical curses by self-asphyxiation. Not sure which one is worse.

The video quality was atrocious, but the episode itself was pretty good. I wonder if Ikoma has inherited the heightened physical abilities that the kabane have.

What the fuck were you expecting for m a show that takes place in the not-edo period with trains and pile bunkers?

>>139764056
Confirmed not knowing anything about the brain. You can live for several minutes without blood flow to the brain before getting brain damage. You can continue to live for longer with the risk of brain damage. You are conscious for a while then you pass out but you still live for much longer and if blood flow is restored you'll come out alive but probably worse for the wear.

But this isn't even pretending to be hard science. It has the appeal of an 80s action flick. It is wholly without the pretension that would warrant legitimate hate just because something "does not make sense."
>>
>>139763997
>if it was just magic and the key to stopping a curse was choking yourself, that'd be even dumber, unless this were actually some sort of BDSM fetish-comedy.
If it was magic, they could use something else to stop the curse, like the stone in his hand. The choking thing was stupid anyway.
>>
>>139764527
Macross gets a pass, because it's the same shit as every other time.

The flop of the season.

Christ I hope the threads are better after this.

I expect humans to be able to adapt after having to deal with the same situation for 20 years regardless of era.

Unfortunately, your view of humanity is more pessimistic.

What the hell am I watching? A survival horror anime with people really trying to survive? Are characters not going to cry until someone saves their asses or they die after minutes of pain?

Guys, the episode is fucking great, better than literally everything else this season.
This, joker game and re:zero(yes i know it's generic light novel trash)
are the only things worth watching.

I really hope this show doesn't get too hype, that will bring in even more hate for no real reason.

Look, if you don't like Macross, don't watch it.

You know what you're getting into, it has been the same shit for over 30 years now.

This MC is an Active character , not reactive. One of the things that makes him so good compared to all the other MCs this season.

>>139764550
>What the fuck were you expecting for m a show that takes place in the not-edo period with trains and pile bunkers?
So that's your excuse for accepting flimsy writing? Ok. If you enjoy it, that's you. I don't know why you're trying to convince me to accept a shoddily written show.

>b-b-but you disagree with me!
>>
>>139764504
Lots of good fiction writing doesn't even rely on realistic causality. Like movies that people watch forever, or 2-dimensional beings holding conversations with spheres, or computers that can manipulate the human form at will with no explanation.

>>139764504
>So glad the rest of the world of fiction and writing isn't on your tier of stupid.

Ikoma is the only one who seems to think that way while everyone else is terrified of the kabane.

>>139764693
You can't ripoff SnK because SnK isn't original at all.

The mangaka is proud of ripping of MuvLuv with it. And Kabane are just zombies. Not titans.

I think he was already prepared for the possibility.

It's the biking club and they ride motorcycles.
I strongly recommend that one.

10/10 not exaggerating, not WIT fag, just someone who set his expectation on par with the director's goal, which is just a zombie-flick with mindless fun.

>>139764690
No. It really isn't. SnK isn't quite as shit. This is the first ep. and it's already swimming in holes.
>>
>>139764753
It's still the same thing, but obviously updated to sell in current year.
How is it any different from all the other Macross shows?

This thread is blowing up faster than i can read. /a/ is very salty about this attack on titan clone
