The first thing that struck me 3 minutes into the anime was - The anime style was like Tengen toppa gurren langan. Comical drawing, I mean.
The opening and ending is interesting if you're into rock and punk song - which I am. Again this remind me of tengen toppa ost. But the plot is like Bleach - well it associate with shinigami, soul and bad demon eating human soul. Conclusion, if you've enjoyed watching Tengen toppa then this anime is surely something to look forward for.
2 episodes are subbed so far, and there are some good things and some bad things about this anime.
The good things are the sounds, the action sequences and overall visual style. The laughing sun still gives me the creeps every time i remember it, it's just that good. The action is top notch - I watched the first episode 3 times now, just to see the way that girl handles her scythe. Haven't seen anything quite like that since "Guarding of the Sacred Spirit".
The bad things are plot and character development. In the worst traditions of shounen, it's random and slow. The plot threads contain enough genuine surprise value to keep you entertained on the first watch, but rewatch value so far is 0.
But heck, first episodes of Slayers were only good for laugh as well. And then it went on to become a classic .
I can say i am looking forward for the whole thing to unfold.

remains true to the manga, so far.... The VA's match the character (IMO, other than Soul... But I guess it works). So far so good... Some what worried how this can turn into another Naruto or Bleach (in terms of the anime)... The manga is awesome, by the way... Go read it...
Style, lots of style, good and crazy animation and funny characters. Bones is on a roll again. I can not even imagine how they'll keep this up for 51 episodes and possibly beyond. MITE-MITE folks!
this anime is great, its funny, the fights are great, the characters are cool, everthing is nice, i cant complain about anything! 10/10 rating for me so far, just watch it, you wont be disappointed!
It looks like Dattebayo has released an episode. Today (June 12) in the absence of Naruto Shippuuden, "Nartuo Soulpuuden" was released by DB. It's Soul Eater. I didn't take the time to determine which episode it is, but I would assume the first. Interesting development.

Well, what can I say? It's a pretty good show. I definitely love the animation style of it, and the OP and ED rock. Glad to see that there's finally some plot development happening as well. I think it tries just a little too hard to be funny from time to time, but it's definitely a fun show. 7/10 for the time being. Fingers crossed that'll it'll only get better with time.
I thought I should hate this one but I was wrong. We have to thanks the Animation for that and of course the wicked world which is just freaking awesome.
Thumbs up f or this one.

it might be compared to other shows like Bleach but I feel like its much deeper than it the character are very unique the art style is too and only 51 eps ? I'm glad it wont be like Bleach/Naruto/etc. But like Fma XD
When I first saw a trailer i thought it was a kids show

Splendid and unique CGI, charming main charecters, charming villains (Medusa ftw), and a splendid diversity in generes make this quite a stunning series. I would definatley recommend this, practically most aspects of this anime are built excellently.
