----------------------------------------
Shingiku has a pretty messed up past to say the least, also cutting that rock nice enough to make it gleam was cool aswell. Mitsuki looks interesting looking forward to learning more about her and the Insect Hunters

I was thinking the same thing his character design reminds me of Kenpachi as well. Also Hibachi and that mandated fanservice <3 its almost as if every time they show her its for fanservice purposes.

ya it does sound a lot like Zoro, and Hibachi's fanservice is a Welcome addition to this anime even if it's forced on her by a drunken swordsman *snicker*

All shonnen have the fanservice stuff so do not criticize... I like it i think this could be a big fish, first arc will be that insect hunters and slowly things will connect...

Seems they're going to focus on individual characters for the first half likely for this series. Like a boss:



He wouldn't steal but he would kill. Well, damn. Koikawa ftw.

Shingiku's past was so sad. I was glad Jinbei believed him. They were so cool against that mantis. Next week is Tenma epsiode.

The opening will be stuck in my head for months.

I'm pretty sure I love the OP more than I should...

This anime seems to be shaping up to be a long-term one, and it's pretty enjoyable too! The setting's not too bad, the characters are likeable, doesn't feel rushed or forced, and the MC is not trying to build a harem with dozens of girls that harbor an attraction towards him for some unexplicable reason... for once.

Looks like there will be multiple arcs too, what with the bug hunters and all.

...love Hibachi btw.

Well, you could argue on whether your life is actually yours...but tha's beside the point, he doesn't steal, period.

It seems every female character shown has been reduced to fanservice. Even Koikawa's mom in the flashback was showing off her cleavage. Hibachi especially, not that I mind... Just saying.

That was a really nice episode... better than the first 2 at least

I don't know but I'm really fond of Jinbei's voice *.*

3/5

Better than the previous, the narrative proves much more interesting and fun if necessary, but the plot is still showing the characters without bring some argument succulent main story! Edesso For proves a shonen average!

Ahaha. Koikawa is an awesome guy. Cutting the rocks... while cutting Hibachi's clothes naturally. Ahahaha.

That was such a reason for why he doesnt want to say anything.

Hopefully after all character intros are done, there will be mad action.

So it is one episode at a time focusing on the various members in the Mushibugyou. Not bad. Koikawa is a cool dude and Mushigari is quite mysterious -- if they are just mercenary hired to eliminate giant bugs, why would they kill Koikawa's mother?

Anyway, some hot and sexy scenes are there again, and I don't object to that ;-)
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Aww Hibachi's fanservice xD
Koikawa is a good guy.. Well, not really
But if there's no one so aggresive to him.. Maybe he could be a really good guy

Anyway I love Koikawa's voice (more specificly it's Eguchi Takuya-san's voice!! Or Hachiman's voice xD)
I assume he's the 2nd strongest in Mushibugyou department??

still not feeling the fluidity of this anime...

the voice acting for main dude may be part of the prob but who knows...

looking forward to plot after all the chara intro phase

my plot twist guess is that the boss with the annoying bell and never talks is actually a insect-human hybrid and make up all these shit for shit and giggles..

I suspect that the last of the big character intros will be the ex-Insect Slayer guy, moving into an arc where they go up against the Insect Slayers (probably for the rest of the series).

This time an episode about the sword dude. Weakest episode so far imo. Next will be the small dude and then maybe some story progression?

Not enough Hibachi this ep. but seeing her half naked was good enough. hehe
