I just watched the first episode of this. Holy shit it's really good. Is anybody else watching? Or did you read the manga? Let's talk about this show here.

Please remember to put spoilers in spoilers when discussing.

I've read most of the manga up til 100s a few months back then stopped. The first arc is beyond any other first arc I've read in shonen, didn't need superpowered battles either. The reason for this is I heard was that the writer Kaiu Shirai planned out his manga for a long time, I think a few years?, because he wanted it not to fail or something. And that's why the arc is so well thought out. After that it goes to really good to fluctuating to good to decent to boring. The manga is decent but now that they're back to the weekly writing and illustrating, it's not at its peak anymore. Which is why I stopped reading for now.

Didn't get to the anime (mostly because I prefer manga) , but my roommate watched it and liked it. I am caught up to date with the manga, and I basically share the same sentiments as strangerhypno. I think the pace is picking up again, so maybe that'll give people some motivation to read.

I love this show, I picked up the opening last Wednesday, and umm borrowed a bookmark I found laying around the teacher's office of the show's characters. Haven't seen much merchandise for it at Animate yet, just Gatchapon stuff :(

I've read the entirety of the manga to date and I've gotta say that they've done a tremendous job with the anime adaption to this point.
