1x01 Beginner

I normally review the episodes of a series on my second watching, as I have noticed this tends to be a good test of any original impressions. This series is no exception. There is a lot about the artwork which would lead you to the impression this was a cheaply made anime, which may cause you to have low expectations when you first watch this. I can assure you this is not the case, the art work, while unusual, is very well done and with a lot of effort made in getting a certain impression. Its not my favourite art work, but this series is so good and the adaptation of this style so masterful, its not an issue. Apart from that this is about the most perfect episode 1 I have come across, other classics such as Steins gate, Overlord and The saga of Tanya the evil, are equally brilliant, but this series falls well in the almost perfect 1st episode. Starts with action, leads to plat development and then off you go into the other world. At no times are you left time to be bored and throughout the series you are always looking forward to finding what occurs. My only description is a near perfect first episode to a brilliant series.
