If Commie's translation was right, she couldn't use it at first because there was a "mutant supression device"; then she couldn't use it because she was still recovering, then, after she recovered and the "mutant supression device" wasn't active, she couldn't use it because they took UAAAAVERINE hostage.
I really like the action sequences in the series, but I really, really hope that they avoid using dark interiors and night scenes lit only by some strong main energy force in future. One thing I noticed about the opening scene in ep1, the battle scene at the end of ep2, and the battle scenes throughout ep3, is that while it does a great job of conveying the feel they want, and the animation itself is great, it does end up feeling a bit like Nolan's Batman Begins action sequences where you can really appreciate the full sense of a fight because everything is either too dark or everything is lit in the aura of a single color. The action scenes in ep2 where you can see everything in daylight looked soooooo much better.

Eric Brooks--known as Blade--seeks revenge on Deacon Frost, the vampire lord who killed his mother while she was still pregnant with Eric. With all the powers of a vampire with none of their weaknesses, Blade's quest for vengeance leads him throughout Southeast Asia in search of Frost, where, in Vietnam, he discovers a vampire plot that threatens to take down the whole world.

where can i see this show?
Also, I'll like to add that I really hope that we get to see the original generation costumes again. It was pretty cool to see them used in the Dark Phoenix scene in ep1, and to see them again in the ending credits. Hopefully they'll include at lease one more flashback set piece in the series which takes place during the day out int he open so we can see all the detail on the costumes in their full glory.
Alternatively, they could just make that the climax of the show with the entire team outfitting in "battle gear" for the final battle.

Still not absolutely sure if I like it. But I watched all three episodes so far, so that has to mean something. I'm a bit scared it will totally go the Anime evil crazy giant transforming mutant robot shooting laser rockets route :/ First episode was by far the best in my book.

Maybe it's just me, but I see a subtle difference between alien spaceships and Sentinels on one hand and that mutant monster thingie and the typical anime biotech madman in the 2nd/3rd part of the series on the other. Anyway, I'm really glad if the X-Men fanbase likes itduckroll said:

You're right ^^ Actually, I thought the U-Men were kind of made up for the show, I honestly didn't know they exist in the comic universe. Like I said, I didn't follow the X-Universe regularly. Thanks for clearing things up, I will now curiously await what the show is about to deliver
U-Men as a faction is based on the comics. Their designs and the Jake and Todd characters who lead them in the anime are original creations for the anime story. The art and general story is definitely stylized to be more representative of anime than normal X-men comics, but that's expected since it's an anime.
It's similar to how the Iron Man anime used Zodiac, which is a real enemy organization in the Iron Man comics, but the actual people running the organization, their plans, and their robot and character designs, are original to the anime. Too the show was pretty bad.

It's amazing how well the X-men are suited for anime. It just works.
3 eps in and I'm a huge fan. Fell out with X-men comics but now I'm looking up Armor appearances.

xmen episode 3
They keep finding new ways to nerf storm, whats next its that time of the month so she can't use her powers(or maybe they already done that in ep2).
Episode was ok but the later half was your typical shounen plot which I felt Ive seen this done millions of times before.

Ouch, Slayers flashback...
Just watched the first episode, and I really enjoyed it. I haven't watched or cared about an anime in years, but I plan to follow this. I loved the animation, the backgrounds, the music, and the characters and their familiar interactions. It felt like the old FOX X-Men cartoon with a fresh coat of paint and a more serious tone. In Japanese.

The interactions between Emma and the X-Men were pretty awesome in this episode. I also really love how they're handling Cyclops. It's rare that a non-comic version of X-Men actually gets Cyclops right, and it's really heart warming to see him being put front and center rather than all of the focus being on Wolverine and Storm.

As a fan of Cyclops, I feel the same way.

Emma is a primarily telepath. Her ability to turn in to a diamond form is a secondary mutation which was triggered during the Genoshan Massacre in the comics if I remember correctly.
To answer your question she has the ability to do both. But she cannot use her telepathy when in diamond form.
