The first episode was pretty boring and repetitive.

All of the Kugyuu tsunderes have great ZR, whether you love them or hate them.

Potential?
Who was making a joke? I was just pointing out that the arbiters of taste have made their judgment.
Taiga~

disagreed.
I think it worked quite well to create an unsettling atmosphere there were going for.
holy shit, I think you're right.
So that is Rie's evil secret!
Sakaki is lovely.
Even little adorable Kaorin has the hots for her.

This Aku no Hana talk's reminding me of when I used to defend Fujikoike. At least I agree with most of y'all that the rotoscoping's mediocre.
.
That's about it, anyway, since I don't know if the manga's any good or not

hahaha lol, I am pretty sure Goku could take on everyone there by himself.

I think it's slightly different in the sense that in the end, the people who enjoy Aku no Hana will at worst be visually handicapped. For Fujiko, those of us who made it to the end probably all had permanent brain damage.

Once again, looks like animegaf is the minority. Non-animegaffers in the OT seem to be receptive to it as well.
If only she had also gotten the series composition gig for Aku no Hana. Would have loved to see the reactions to that.
I'm glad she's writing PA Works shit for a while now, so I can just stay away by default due to lack of interest!
That doesn't sound like a very good endorsement of the manga, LOL.
Maybe Ando-Okada should have done Aku no Hana instead of Zetsuen...
Well at least then it would probably look good.
Not compatible with my phone. I guess that's why I didn't install it last time it was brought up.
For a laugh of course.

Yeah, the correct way.
Taiga is a goddess
Shana is horrible
Louise is slightly better
Nagi is ok
Iori is terrible
Lotte is meh
Aria is insufferably annoying.
Rie is not a voice actress I care for very much.
too much tsun and urusai.
however something about Taiga transcends her.
What the fuck is it about Taiga?

Other than Taiga, I agree with none of that. It had to happen at least once my nakama. They're pretty common opinions though and I can see the fault in every single one of them, but Kugyuu was the first seiyuu I really started to recognize (now it controls my life) so I just have a weird tendency to like every character she's done.

I'm sorry, I couldn't stop laughing when
It's gruff machismo taken to such an absurd level. It should fly well with the manly anime crowd, I guess. The men are stout and the women are same-faced accessories.
Some awkward pacing but I thought the episode worked well enough, as a whole. It's hard to 'lose' with that last shot, anyway.
Shouldn't be surprised considering just what this is, but it's so old-school, and Japanese to boot. Sometimes it works: the various antiquity of machinery, golden-age SF appropriations of naval tactics onto a spacial plane, etc. It's quite fun to watch, even when some awkwardness arises from how the design work faithfully recreates what's been parodied for decades now. Some of those ships, and their maneuvers, look straight out of Futurama.
But then there are unpleasant parallels to be drawn between the plight of humanity - as represented by the solely Japanese cast - and the 'devils,' the ones who have destroyed Earth with their WMDs. It's just uncomfortable considering the Japanese penchant for selective memory regarding their history, but again, I suppose this is (originally) old as fuck.
This was funny because it reminded me of how the bridge in Majestic Prince retracted inward. Progress.

I live to influence people's watch list via stacked lolis another day.
Excellent.

This episode is drastically different from the previous episode. However, I think the episode still remains strong in showing the relationship between two foreign entities. Chamber and Red are fairly awesome characters especially in trying to figure out how the nomads live. I think the only part of the narrative that disappoints me is that it's rather mundane so far. It's a short series so I expected it to pick up but I guess it's understandable to have sort of a two episode introductory arc to ease the characters into the world.
I'm surprised by the visual quality of the show. I never would've guessed that PIG did this considering my impression with the studio after PP has been negative to say the least. There is a rich and diverse use of color and I love many of the camera angles they take throughout the episode just like the first episode.
The soundtrack is surprisingly good as well. I can't really comment beyond that. I want to hear more of it to describe it's tone and mood.
I think the part of the episode that stood out to me most was
Solid episode and I'm looking forward to what this show has to offer in the future.

the end. I was surprised by how nonchalant Red was in killing people. It seems likes the mental workings of the nomads and the space humans are vastly different. The indiscriminate killing and how Red is completely unfazed by it struck me as disturbing a bit. I hope they expand upon this next episode but not for too long.
Solid episode and I'm looking forward to what this show has to offer in the future.
if we agreed every single time it wouldn't be fun would it?
this show was such a pleasant surprise.
I wish we knew.
I don't think we even know the studio yet. BONES is already doing the Space Dandy thing this summer aren't they?
No. That's Fall. It hasn't even been announced yet.
Hmm... maybe A-1? lol.

But who was Yamamoto?
Brain damage seems excessive, but I'll take that as an answer.
I love how, thanks to all the different kinds of behind-the-scenes Twitter talk, trademarks, offhand comments during interviews, etc., we can confidently state the airing season for a show that formally doesn't exist to the public yet.
