Hnnnnng. That entire OP makes me feel so good. As for the series itself, I'm enjoying it too. Digging the animation and art style most of all.

I think it might end up being solid depending on where they go from last episode's ending.

>>140353212
She confessed in the second episode, where the entire point was to reveal a secret aspect of themselves that they'd most likely develop out of with the bond they have with the other Kiznaivers. She's going to care about Kacchon but realize that the Kacchon she loved is gone. They will stay platonic friends and it will be better that way.

>>140355615
And this is why red will win, do you even watch anime.

So what are the characters' sins derived from? Is Yuta pride or greed? From what I can gather purple is gonna be lust.
Also it was brought up in another thread that they could develop from the seven modern deadly sins into the seven modern heavenly virtues.

Plus that OP is dynamite.

>>140355658
But Blue has a mysterious connection to Kacchon, played up in both the OP and ED. She's also probably the one from his flashback, which would make her first girl.

Plenty of threads every time it airs, also, continuing Trigger tradition we are making a communal episode chart. So yes, we *are* watching this.

I'm not sure how to feel about it yet. It hasn't really started.

>>140358677
probably for good reason, the amount of hype klk had in the first 4-6 episodes were off the fuckin chart and i think that lead to the meme of klk being shit.

It's not very good. I seriously cringed when red confessed, and I fucking hate this emo MC.

>>140358715
Yeah, but I hope it does pick up soon. I still don't even know what genre it is.

It's good. It's really good. Studio Trigger is here to save the industry.

Trigger's staff was all youngblood coming out of the end-days of Gainax (TTGL, FLCL).

Imaishi is 44 years old with no signs of slowing down. You will have good cartoons to watch for 20 years on Kill la Kill, Ninja Slayer, Luluco, and Kiznaiver are all completely INZANE.

You can thank Anno for this. Daicon IV was the seed. OG Gainax crew was the 90s punk studio. Evangelion was the anime that showed you could take the viewer to strange emotional places. It made things like Utena (and other Ikuhara series) possible.

Anybody talking shit about this series is either a troll, or has lost their humanity/good taste along the shitkicker path.

Just watch that OP and tell me Kizaiver isn't going to be the best show this season.

Red is cuter, blue is hotter/sexier.

It's good, really good. It's colourful as heck and it's got lively animation throughout. Not to mention Kobayashi's slick direction. Both episodes ooze his artistic sensibilities and you can really tell that a lot of work is going into this. I've seen people compare it to Penguindrum and I'd agree, it gives off this Ikuhara or Igarashi-esque atmosphere. It definitely carries the Trigger aesthetic but he's distanced himself from Imaishi quite a bit, which I think is a good thing. The story's good too, I think. Premise itself has a lot of potential and it's definitely got me interested in seeing where it'll go. I think a lot of people don't like Okada because she's very cold and analytical and melodramatic, but that fits in perfectly with the story, thematically. All the characters are super fun and eccentric, and it all works very nicely together, I think. I also wanna fuck Nico.

I liked it. I hope it has larger ambitions, especially considering how many directions this can go. Also I like the tone of the second episode than the first, so I hope it's still sort-of dark comedy with some good conflicts in bound

I like the animation, character design, and style, but that's about it.

The recent episode felt way too forced and contrived and it bothered me. Usually I'm a sucker for melodrama and character-driven plots, but this "mission" was too straight-forward. Not straight-forward in that it's easy, it's just too straight-forward in its purpose to forcefully bond the characters and threaten their profile and secret out of them.

And the MC is really really meh. It is really difficult to sympathize with him, and yes, I understand that is an integral part of his character, but not being phased by the Trigger antics and that whole scene where he revises his introduction fell so flat. Him being totally aware of his character flaw bothers me. Also when he is portrayed as someone who has no feelings or care for absolutely anything, but yet has enough cheek to say sarcastically say shit like "nice timing" when the bullies come around to kick his ass, that feels inconsistent to me.

And then there's Sonozaki. You're led to believe that she is just rich and so therefore has the resources to carry out all these Trigger bullshit... but when it's so reminiscent of Trigger bullshit and you get scenes like dogs breaking through glass windows, the basket Katsuhira was in crashing into the side of the building in such a way that no harm is dealt to him and he is allowed to remain in that position just long enough for both him and Chidori to finish their speech, the incredibly responsive yet soulless Gomorin mascots acting as Sonozaki's arms and legs-- it gets harder to believe the situation they're in.

It just feels like a horrible balance between cartoony antics and melodrama. It's supposed to be creepy, but it just comes off as cheesy to me. So I'm just a little skeptic as to whether I can actually enjoy this show. I really really like the character designs. Chidori a cutest and Maki is fucking hot.

The OP is pretty nice though.

>>140362091
I really enjoy how utterly unrealistic it is. Reminds me a little of Penguindrum- which is good because that's absolutely my favourite anime.

Sonozaki doesn't need to be rich when she's working for the enigmatic shadow corporation which controls the entire city.

432KB, 1211x1462px

>>140362213
Whether she's rich or not isn't the point. She's just supposed to seem like she has a shit ton of resources. Even though it's a shit ton, they're still resources that should seem sort of tangible or believable, because she herself is still a human character. But when her will is carried out so willingly by the world, it feels really off to me, because she is not an ominous faceless force of the world. She's a very opinionated human with a proposed agenda and a hidden agenda. It feels too tangible, but her actions seem so intangible. That's just how I feel though.

I don't hate Okada shows. I love WIXOSS, which a huge portion of its projects headed by Okada's writing, all of which I love. But I think this is probably what happens when she has no filter, and for me, it's clashing really heavily against Trigger's old school flavor of blatant cartoony antics.

Forgot to mention I love the key animation too. Shame there doesn't seem to be a lot of fanart of Maki and her amazing breasts.

>>140348448
Do they fight?

>>140362213
Sonozaki reminds me a lot of penguin hat Himari with her enigmatic speech combined with goofy mannerisms. Her chest grabbing gesture and "dead end" especially.

>>140362629
They're not superpowered fighters. The show so far is just them being thrown into a thought experiment.

I liked Kokoro Connect, but this not so much. Even though Kokoro Connect was ridiculous, the rules were imposed on them by a faceless entity, and there were no Trigger shenanigans happening. It was just all character interaction in a modern setting and that's what I enjoyed about it.

Didn't think about how similar they are in focus though.

Gomurin, disco lights in the hospital scene, hard hat cutely worn by Sonozaki as she is threatening the lives of other people, Sonozaki making groping motions, the abduction scene, the confetti and victory fanfare. I called them Trigger antics but it's probably more appropriate to call them cartoony antics. That's what Trigger's style feels like to me after watching LWA, KLK, and Luluco. Not so much prevalent in Inou Battle if I remember. But that's basically what I'm referring to.

When you have shit like the sun being cast on not just Chidori's emotional crying scene, but the Gomurin nearby, it feels cheapened to me.

Just imagine pic-related with a mascot character standing in the background or Hatoko's cooking steaming or overflowing while she is ranting. It would feel extremely corny to me. I know Chidori's breakdown into tears, while emotional, isn't supposed to be as stunning as something like Hatoko's outburst, but I don't feel like the direction in Chidori's scene certainly did it any favors.

It's like you're a plebe that can't glimpse the inherent and intended ridiculousness of putting people's lives on the line for petty secrets like who you have a crush on or your embarassing phobia.

I really want to like this and see where the potential of this premise will take it. However, I'm not too invested in the characters so far (I dislike Sonozaki and I hope righteous retribution happens to her). Nor did episode 2 pull at my heartstrings even though it was supposed to be emotional. Hell, I rewatched some parts to see if I was missing something.

The next episode will determine whether I drop it (only to lurk threads thanks to my bizarre morbid curiosity), put it on hold (because the anticipation of each episode hoping it gets better kills me), or keep going (only for more painful anticipation).

In some deep dark part of my mind I'm anticipating sex will be part of this plot a la sense8; a show that people are comparing this to.

I'm still wondering about pain that isn't delivered maliciously like child birth (pain across sexes has me wondering too like getting hit in the balls), contact sports, and paper cuts.

>>140367578
>(pain across sexes has me wondering too like getting hit in the balls)
Imagine the guys fucking the girls and feeling the pain as they tear apart their virgin holes.

>>140367662

How's /a/ going to react when purple fucks red?

>>140368421
Whenever any female main or prominent supporting gets together with anyone other than the MC, /a/ will cry "NTR" over and over because they have the mindset of children.

With the /v/ infestation we can probably guarantee plenty of "cuck"s thrown in as well.

>>140368499
I'm going to enjoy that. Red's route got forcibly shut by Blue and Purple's gonna be there to swoop in so hard MC is gonna start to feel again. Can't wait for glorious NTR___.

>>140348448
They were abducted, experimented on and tortured, why the fuck are they going along with this shit and even thanking blue haired bitch? I hate them all for it.

>>140362091
im not enjoying it at all, it was so cringy and forced its been 2 episodes and we already have the "crying out loud to the horizon" scene, wich its always bad but its been used way better in other trigger anime. and the characters are pretty boring or obnoxious.
but has a good opening

>>140365214

I think it's more important showing that they're maintaining a facade than making every character have a deep and tortured backstory.
Tenga being a pussy inside, Yuta-kun having a sense of shame, Chidori hiding her love for Kacchon, Nico, Maki actually caring about somebody, they're all meant to be liars.

I really liked second episode. It seems it will be more of a social experiment type of anime, hence the sci-fi notion by on one of the producers. And I usually not a fan of the Okada drama(especially Nagi), I like the idea and the potential in this one.

I'm enjoying it immensely. The art direction, the character designs, and I like how it's not taking itself too seriously. I also have to agree with the other /a/nons, it has very lite Ikuhara vibes.

>>140348448
I'm watching it, and I think the first impressions it has given are way better than Kill la Kill (just to mark how Trigger's work has progressed and improved, not to compare the two) but the second episode has all but shattered my hopes for an interesting story. There was not a single person's secret that couldn't either be guessed or wasn't just some off-the-wall embarrassing bullshit. Unless their inner most secrets aren't their really real inner most secrets, I can't see much of interest happening, it's just too predictable.

Still, pretty to look at and not in a totally tryhard gotta impress everyone with the sakuga fight sort of way either.

They are. It's just that the secrets are relevant for the image they try to keep to the world.

I hope Trigger gives us something good for the 3rd episode. I feel they are the only guys that seriously hypes the show now.

It's not about the secrets themselves.
It's about how much they tell us about the character, who they really are, how they're not hollow archetypes but people.

I know it's not that original and it's not something actually praiseworthy but there's no need to bash the show for it.

Tenga's reveals he's not that tough, Yuta's reveals behind his smugness there is some insecurity, Chidori sets the basis for her growth as a character and Maki's... well, i don't know what to think about that.

Episode 3 will be a masterpiece. mark my words.

-The whole 'shared pain' idea is badly executed
-The blue haired chick is a total bitch
-Lack of adult supervision
-None of the kids are worried are freaking out wanting to go back to their homes and family. Rather they seem mildly annoyed.
-The subjects could have been dead during the confessions
-Apparently testing these random teenagers is going to influence the result of using this for the world.....okay.

Trigger was a bit too experimental with this show, desu; a bit outside of their comfort zone. It's a good show, but the concept is a bit muddled. Episode 3 is really, really good, has a clearer point and may save it, though. On the other hand heir next big project for 2017 and also their biggest project to date is much safer and will probably be a big hit in the Western fandom. It's a TTGL-ish (not not exactly yet another TTGL) "epic" (in terms of scale) super robot mecha show by Imaishi and Nakashima with double-protagonist (a girl and a guy, the girl is the main protagonist).

I want to believe you. I was at AX 2015 at their panel where they learned that they have such a huge reception in the west. More so than Japan. We got to see designs for Kiznaiver before Japan and imaishi said he'd come back next year with a new work. Maybe he meant Luluco? If ep 3 is really that good then I'll take your word for it alleged CRdev

>>140361398
Barely. It mostly fits the aesthetic (especially talking to the A-ha music video) but it's not making the punches between scene changes.

Episode 3 will most likely be the deciding factor on whether this anime will make waves or not. Just a hunch.

I don't think I've heard about romance at all, at least not from the sources I've been following (which are mostly the translated magazine articles and the kiznaiver Twitter).
I think it was less supposed to be 'romance' and more a plot point served to humanize Satsuki a bit so people would sympathize with her and show Ragyo as more horrible than she already is. Whether the way they executed that was successful or not depends on an individual's opinion. Nui was gay for Ryuko as soon as she met her, and she explained in her second debut episode that she thinks love and hate are two sides of the same coin, so her lust for Ryuko makes sense in that regard. Neither were really portrayed positively or ended up as an endgame pairing so I don't think it really fits under the definition of 'romance'.

Okada said the story will involve love and young men and women getting together.

Is there a source for this or did someone say it here and people assumed it was true?

Sales will be compensated by everyone else except Japan

Even still, if you removed yuri from the story, nothing would've changed. It wouldn't have harmed character development or plot. You could've seen how horrid Ragyo was by experimenting on her daughters and tossing one away. Ditto in Nui's case. Of course the yuri was more lustful and had nothing to do with romance, I just referenced it because again, I thought it was unnecessary and I hope Kiznaiver doesn't shoehorn romance for god knows why.

TL;DR How these elements are introduced to the story all comes down to execution. Shoehorning it in is what I'm dreading the most.

I've heard the same. Like anon says, whatever news we get we have to take with a grain of salt

Man I sound like a broken record in my posts.

She did say the show is full of the involvement of female characters and the charm of blossoming boys.

I wonder how they're going to handle the omnipandering marketing

Couldn't that just mean the entire cast's character development in general? How does that 100% confirm a hetero romance at all?

Does it hint this in the interview?

Now that you mention it, what anon says above POSSIBLY alludes to romance but doesn't guarantee it.
