    Surprisingly good

    The cliche start baits you into thinking that the anime would immediately devolve into a cesspit of bad writing, however, quite the opposite is true. Though it may at first be filled with cliche, the characters and animation and fast pacing leave it interesting, vivid and almost impossibly refreshing; I will watch with interest as this anime continues.

    i know this would be a hit

    Now THIS is a HIT!!!!!

    Great animation and illustration quality, interesting characters from the beginning, the plot interesting from the start. The story line was quick in the first episode which in most anime would turn out rushed or too forced but the writers of this show did a great job with providing character development for the main and secondary characters even in the first episode. I think that's a pretty big deal and honestly pretty difficult thing to achieve in only a 23 min episode. Most anime that would try to speed up the plot could result in having a lack of depth to the show. But we still got depth of the plot and characters together, plus a curiosity/excitement on what's going to happen to next. I love the main protagonist, he seems so sincere and wholesome deep in side whilst also pragmatic and level headed, definitely a strong leader type, not to mention that he's first described as a character who fades in the background, it's so great to see this genre where the underdog becomes the main hero. Love it!!!!! Excited to see the rest.
