xrentonx Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) I haven't watched anime in years because a lot of it is embarassing drivel (i'm talking about all the "moe" stuff that I just don't get at all) but this looks promising.

soul.assassin Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Mind you, this show (and Space Brothers, for this season) has a lot of high quality, from staff to looks. With Aya Endo voicing as one of the characters. Check. With Yoko Kanno working on the soundtrack. Check. Be sure to brush up on some jazz knowledge, unless you've got this musical genre flowing right through your veins (and Japan is very big on jazz).

Tochiro Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Anyone else catch ep 1? I really enjoyed it- they've nailed the character relationships (so far) and the period in a very enjoyable way IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soul.assassin Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I did. This is one of those rare diamonds in the rough. Just as promised, the first episode delivered everything, and tonight I have episode 2 lined up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Ooh, sweet, a friend of mine mentioned this series in terms of who's involved, but didn't mention the jazz element. I'm going to have to keep an eye on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Episode 2 is excellent, too. I'm loving the characters, the settings, the mood, the music, everything. So far even my highest expectations after hearing the credit list are being met. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
