This is just shitposting now
She sure likes to step on him (both in the OP and in the PV)

His like Edward Elric x guts for the edge. Also a badass design.

So you watched the Weebcast too?
>>140431647
This white hair meme has to stop. It doesn't happen overnight, and it certainly doesn't affect such a large percentage of hair.
>>140432901
?
His hair was always like that though.
>>140432415
It really is. Kudos to the VA
Why do the chinese get this a week earlier than even Japan?

>>140431647
Why is his seiyuu so good holy shit. He doesn't even have a lot of roles.
>>140431647
Can someone explain to me why you like this MC so much?
>>140433139
He's ambitious
>>140433139
He got style.
>>140432615
okay digi
>>140433139
He's a badass, but not 100% edge all the time. He's super proud of himself when he kills the Kabane. Then he's super proud of himself when he keeps himself from turning into a Kabane. and then he brags to his fat friend about killing a Kabane and they bro it up.
There's more reasons I personally like him, but that's mostly it.
>>140433139
This scene made him awesome in my eyes

he's a huge step up from the one he's obviously based on but I would have much rather he remained a human and used his ingenuity as his weapon rather than become a superhuman.

Also he liked best girl while ignoring the boring princess archetype stand in.

>kill a monster

Did they spoil this in the OP?
>>140433853
They shouldn't be the same people just similar I think.
>>140431647
>artstyle

>>140433139
He's an inventor, has a fun, friendly personality and has balls to stand up to people without being annoying or overly competent. Could change but so far I love him.
>>140433392
Looks so huggable despite everything happening.
>>140433853
They're just similar. It's not the same person.
>>140433853
There are just going to be some parallels between Mumei and this woman from Ikoma's past. Maybe she wasn't his sister but instead his first love?
>>140433824
It would be hilarious if he actually tried to mass-produce and advertise those things.
Just imagine him shilling to everyone he meets.

He's 17 and she's 12 though. how would take work?
>>140431647
hey there Erin
>>140434264
Didn't he literally call her his sister already?

You're forgiven, and thank you very much.

What? When
>>140433139
I hadn't really thought about it, but yeah, compare him to most other MCs in anime, and he's pretty good.
>>140434626
I would fuck a 12 year old if she was that developed and the laws weren't shit.
>>140434892
It's industrial era Japan so there are probably not as many laws against it.

Discuss this important topic.
>>140435020
I want to worship those feet.
>>140434355
He should give those weapons to normal people and encourage them to kill all the bushi and their shitty regime. Actually, I don't care about zombies, I'm watching because I hope to see that.
>The Bushi is uncreative. He produces nothing, he only pretends to fight Kabane
>What do Kabaneri have to do with socialism? I would put the question this way: What does the Bushi have to do with Kabane?
>>140435020
A discussion needs a controversial topic. Something for debate.
This isn't controversial at all. It's perfect.
I don't like the direction this anime is taking. Why can't they just focus on humanity for once? Why do they always have to have fucking powerlevels?
I wish more anime was like Berserk.
>>140434626
She isn't 12 though, nothing says she's 12 every at all.

Is this that 90s style anime I've been hearing about? Something about having the director of Gunbuster I think.
>>140435310
No guts is a monster.
This mc may be a kabaneri physically but he is still more human the guts.
To call guts human is pretty insulting don't you think?
Does anyone else here think that Mumei's people in the capitol will be at least a liiiitle taken aback at the fact that Ikoma successfully turned himself into one?
>>140435280
That's disappointing, well at least it's industrial Japan so who cares about modern western standards...,right?
>>140433380
I've made this point before. He represents the the rigid, repressive caste system they all live in. Both it's nobler elements and it's flaws. He beats up on innocent people for just speaking truth to power, but is also willing to sacrifice his life to protect people.
In short, you're not supposed to like him.
>>140435081
Well thanks internet. Didn't take you long to draw creepy fanart of this character.
>>140435280
I thought that Mumei sounds like "nameless" but it's actually "nameless". Anonymous-chan?

Holy shit I didn't notice that before. No wonder his head's stuck up so far up his ass.
And I'm assuming it's princess that's 15?
>>140435326
Yes because MCs with glasses is such a common thing.
>>140436100
I was more or so commenting on the idea of Mumei being his first love, or childhood friend. Given the five year difference, the window for a childhood love attraction that to actually happen is unlikely.
I'm not questioning the values of the society.
>>140434848
So you've only watched 10 anime
>>140436122
Takumi is 15, even though he has a dad bod.
>>140433529
>expecting an actually good written character
You have to remember who made Ikoma. He was doomed to be a "clone" from the start, even if he is the better one of the two.
>>140433139
No because its pratically a meme to say he's a good character when he's barely done anything much like people who think this is a good anime
Never forget
>>140436122
I don't get it. Why does his age explains evertyhing? I don't get it.
He is the best character of the show by the way, he is the only character actually being smart and grounded.
>>140436317
DELETE THIS
>>140436317>the (you)s I got that day
>>140436190
Given the flashbacks, unless I've overseen a detail, the girl on the flashback seems to be the same age as Ikoma. So I doubt Mumei has something to do with the MC's childhood.
>>140432415
He was also this kid, and always does a spot on performance. Glad he's finally hit a bigger role
>>140436506
That's why I said it was unlikely.
>>140436317
shit's getting real
So episode 2 is airing tomorrow, correct?
>>140436663
yes
>>140432996
China had a simulcast thing. When Japan had those massive earthquakes, they decided to delay the episode to next week. Either someone on the China side didn't get the memo or didn't care, because they released the episode.
>>140436663
Kill me.
What should Mr. Okouchi do next? He has done mecha controlled vampires and now steampunk zombies. Should werewolves be next on the list?
>>140436847
I have nothing but praise to our Chinese overlords then.
>>140436881
Werewolfs with sport genre.
Is Kabaneri the new Bane show?
>>140436881
A series about homosexual bodybuilders, and one happens to secretly be a woman.
A tale of steroids, posting, pumping iron and gay things.
>>140436992
If you add a lot of manly poses and chiseled bodies, no one would think it really is gay.
>>140437077
Yes, there's nothing gay about large, muscular men.

yeaaah sure
>>140437131
Nothing at all, right?
>>140435091
>le edgy communist
Kill yourself, thanks.
>>140436232
He is still a man though and he will still be using his technology to fight the kabane, i like him more so for his personality and attitude.
>>140437234
>>140437131
>>140437265
>>140437234

These threads are mal-tier.
>>140435288
>This guy is so fucking awesome. Really, REALLY hope they don't fuck this guy up
I mean posting like this. I think 90% of Kabaneri threads are shitposters from reddit and mal. Disgusting.
>>140437337
There is no other way. As long as Bushi are here, it's impossible to defeat Kabane, because their regime needs Kabane. Remove Bushi > remove Kabane.
>>140437234
Imo mumei has some deathflags going on. That scene from the OP wherein Ikoma's dead sis(?) became mumei is kinda like a premonition Ikoma won't be able to save Mumei as well.
>>140437429
>>140437475
Your bait isn't as good as you think it is.
>>140437517
I think he's just trying to fit in
>>140437501
More of a deathflag for Ikoma since he doesn't want to repeat the mistake of running away from his imouto in danger again so he'll make sure he protects Mumei.
>>140436425
Is that Isla?
>>140437501
Especially since she's the experienced one who teaches Ikoma all about being a Habanero and how to fight in the next episode. She might end up dying so Ikoma can't rely on her and he needs to use what she taught him.
Then again she's the best girl for this series. So they might not kill her off so lightly.
>>140437675
Yes.
>>140437762
Isla would never hold a razor like that.
I refuse to believe it.
>no episode 3 this week
Fuck me.
>>140436232
All characters are "clones" since no original ones exist anymore.
But at the same time, I don't think Ikoma's not "well written" so far just because he became a kabaneri instead of remaining normal. That's only one valid possibility.
>>140437234
Kek'd
>>140437755
If she dies an awesome death like Kamina, I won't mind.
>>140436992

>It doesn't happen overnight, and it certainly doesn't affect such a large percentage of hair.
Marie Antoinette says otherwise.
http://archderm.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=712060
Does anyone have any idea why Mumei has normal skin, but MC has green-ish skin?
>>140438750
MC is a Habanero.
>>140438699
It only happens when you already have some white hair hidden under the normal hair, because the normal hair falls out suddenly, leaving just the white hair. I don't think that MC is old enough to have white hair to start with.
>>140438678
I agree. I actually made that exact same comment a few days ago.
>>140438750
>has green-ish skin
He does? Looks normal to me.
>>140432940
His hair became like that after he did the thing to prevent his infection. For some reason his hair went white.
>>140433139
For a protagonist in a edgy anime, he's doing pretty well holding himself together. Like and dislike are strong words, he's a little more than tolerable for at least two episodes. He can at least smile and have fun in the middle of a crisis.
>>140438750
My guess is that the MC used a rudimentary method to avoid infection while Mumei was "infused" with habanero powers in a more controlled environment.
>>140439037
Will we ever get this image with a decent quality?
>>140439104
Uploaded the wrong one, have this one.

>>140439104
I love this meme
episode 2 fucking when?
Train?
>>140438750
Mumei became habanero through an experiment is my guess.
MC looks like a walking corpse because he really was almost dead before the virus lost control.
>>140439258
Or perhaps he's wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of a train?
When will the japs stop delaying my cartoons? Is it really going to save anyone if they cancel everything?
>>140438699
>allegedly turned white
>allegedly
Come on. Nobody is denying that hair turns white because of stress, but it doesn't occur overnight. Read a book.

I bet he smells great and his hair is extra soft
>>140443174
I'm going to be very disappointed If story didnt end up with Nobunaga 2.0 and his Kabaneri army.
>>140443174
For starters they seem to have problems controlling their Habanero - Human ratio. Mumei had to cool down for a bit after exerting herself and Ikoma lunges at the princess. Secondly you can only eat blood as nourishment. I'm sure more downsides will crop up as the series goes on.
Now that ep2 has released for real, where the fuck are the subs?
>>140443174
Maybe the two we know are very lucky and didn't die like some others.

See all the replies of >>140433139
The question is, why don't you think he's a good MC? No meme answers please
>>140444131
The real answer is because he's popular, therefore there *must* be something wrong with him.

I thought the VA did a great job delivering several lines, including the ones where he first met his friend again and later when he's fighting alone against the zombie hordes.

Speaking of VA, Mumei's is pretty good. She's also relatively new at this.

These subs are pretty good, although they were timed to the Chinese raws so they might be a second off or so. You'll also have to save it as "Name of the video file".ass and have it in the same folder.
>>140443539
Where does it say that they can only drink blood?

>>140433139
He's giving off some Shirou vibes to me, hope he doesn't go full edge mode and keeps up his unique personality. I like how he focuses on the human ingenuity approach to fighting kabane and hope it stays that way, with not a huge focus on the kabaneri powers.
>>140435280
I get that the MC has to be young, but did they also have to make everyone else so young too?
so you're telling me I have to wait another week for the new episode? That's just great. Fantastic really
>>140446482
This. It's something you only realize if you actually understand the Japanese, but it was expertly done. Especially the line where he asks her what she'll be pointing the gun at.
>>140446765
I think we'll see him try to get better at fighting kabaneri style immediately after ep 3 but mostly suck at it for the time being, so hopefully he'll get other opportunities to be a tech nerd from time to time.

because there are no actual raw, only a video already subbed in chinese and censored the fuck out of

If it really came down to it, I can translate and time everything on my own. It's not that hard.
>>140447113
The Chinese are simulcasting it with the Japanese, so they'll most likely be re-releasing episode 2 tomorrow.
>>140433326

>>140447320
>What was removed?
Chinese TV censors the extra gory bits. For example, you might have noticed there was a sudden jump in the scene where Ikoma kills the last Kabane before reaching the lever.
>It's already been translated
I'm aware, I did part of it. After the really shitty subs came out, some anon re-timed them, and then I re-translated half the episode.
>>140446451
Artfag you are real fucking good.
>>140445214
Where does the habanero meme come from?
>>140447407
I might have watched the really shitty version. What was the unit of distance that the original subber didn't know?

>2 ri 8 cho (approx. 9km)
And to be honest, she doesn't say "half an hour" either. She uses another ancient measurement for time but I couldn't find a proper translation for it and didn't want to delay the subs any longer. I'll try to figure out the proper name for it by tomorrow.

There's a shot that shows have far the train went, when it goes over the hill. Actually, it went somewhat further than shown. But even the distance shown was too far for a normal person to cover in the time that passed, even if there hadn't been zombies to fight along the way.

The train couldn't move until they unjammed the arm or manually pulled it. Not like he wouldn't have time to catch up
>>140447769
Then how did the other zombies catch up? Checkmate, atheists.

If they had all decided to just chill and wait for him, yeah. He could have slogged a few ri through kabane to catch up to them. But what actually happened was they stopped, deduced that they were stuck, and Samurai Jim decided to go out and spend his life. Then we get a shirtless cutey with fluffy hair showing up to save the day immediately.
Kabaneri Civ 5 mod when?Civ 6 when?
