Playing next Saturday on Adult Swim


Can't wait, finally some new anime.

The commercials reminded me of Paranoia Agent. Won't look at any info regarding the series, I want a complete fresh intro to the series.

Ok so I saw the first episode and was really intrigued and really enjoyed the first episode and it made me curious to watch more.

Found out Anipelex put it all up for free on YouTube so now I'm on episode 8 and I can't express how much I already love the characters and the whole plot. The intertwining of everyone with the central plot is ingenious and amazingly well done.

I have no idea why more people haven't commented on this wonderful series. This ranks among one of the best anime I've ever seen and I've seen a lot.

Just saw the first two episodes on demand. Really intrigued. Thanks to you I'll will watch it on youtube.

The anime seems to be more plot and character driven, which I love. I get the feeling that its gonna be a hidden gem with a small buy loyal fanbase.

I've only seen about 3 episodes, but I am fully hooked. From a first glance, I'd say Paranoia Agent is a pretty good equivalent...I've seen only about 30 minutes of the show Twin Peaks (the series), but from what I remember, something here reminded me of that as well, if that makes any sense.

This show seems great, I am DVRing it from now on until I'm caught up...

Just 25 (or 24?) episodes?

Well, watched it all and... it's fascinating. Something to watch, but I think for a special audience, does not seem to have that broad of an appeal.

Also, it seemed at least two storylines were started and not continued or finished.
