So far so good. Really enjoyable. But with a plot like this it can get old fast. I hope they manage to keep this up.

An auspicious beginning to say the least. I walked in with high expectations, they were met and then some. One episode and already I love all three of the major female characters introduced. Amazing OP, Ed portrayed more women I think I will like. Hinted at a pretty cool setting, and laid out the beginnings of what looks to be an enjoyable plot. Animation was very pretty, Goddamn those eyes. Every character just has such great eyes, and the faces in general are great. All that's left is to wait for the first fight scene. With the level of quality established here, I imagine my expectations will be met there as well.

Also Rose is like Lolicon cotton candi. Can't wait for her to learn enough speech for her character to start developing.

Not bad.

I've watched Kore wa Desu Zombie ka before this and the main protagonist in there Seiyuu and then I watch this, the main character's name is Ryuuji. Hmm maybe I'm making just a little bit of a case in this.

Saw it again and must say Rose is amazingly cute once again but also her body is loli luscious in the spoiler
But did anyone rewind the whup, whup part:

that was just down hilarious the way Rose said it. Although Reiko is kind of the cliche cousin with big breasts, it kind of made way with her breast in Ryuji's face. What I am really anticipating is the girl with 2 different colored eyes. I like those a lot.

Other than that, action wise the car chase was good! Liked it! Rose's powers are insane! The range of the fire is crazy. I am interested in her necklace but most of all those scales on her hand and the symbol that she has in the OP. It looks like some kind of contract with Ryuji to be formed. I also saw in the OP black/blue dragon types, is that right? Misaki with Maho look fine as classmates but I hope Eto does not get too nosy unless that will create some action. Rie Kugimiya being back is good news!

Yeah it kind of looks like Toradora all over except Rose is way better than Aisaka and Rose can breath fire while Aisaka is just a normal human. Lost Precious stuff are extremely rare artifacts that have classification, S being the rarest one but Rose is beyond that.

This anime looks like a roller coaster of fun, drama, and love! I could totally be wrong, and this could be another ''moe'' meets ''tsundere'' anime, but I won't jinx it! I actually really loved this first episode! Animation is beautiful, characters are really interesting, and the story is taking place right off the bat! I love it! This one might be for the books, folks! I haven't said this in a while: Absolutely looking forward to the next!

Yeah, I was expecting to come over and find a mountain of complaints about the repetition but evidently there was enough good stuff to distract people from that. That's another reason to look forward to increased speech abilities though, because as much as I loved this I can see how it could get old pretty fast if they maintained this.

A thought occurs to me though. Her fire attack. Did she kill with it? It certainly looked pretty lethal, but no one was making a big deal out of having murdered numerous members of what I can only assume was an organized crime syndicate while making off with valuable stolen goods. Not to mention that generally these shows maintain a pretty strict "No Murder" policy for the heroes to begin with.

It might occur next episode on the news but that doctor's connections might have made it disappear. Altogether it might have been suppressed for fear of panic among the crowds, imagine someone YouTubed that.....big trouble! I think of it as something along those lines.

So Sucrose, after dropping almost everything that's come your way this season, why are you watching this?

Besides, we all know Rie is the only other reason!

Not as bad as Onii-chan no Koto to make me drop or put it on-hold immediatly (which is very rare anyway), but let's see how things happen until episode 6 or so. This show has some hidden potential, so I hope it delivers soon, because the only highlights of the first episode were Rose and the car chase scene.

Quite interesting, hopefully it keeps this level of quality and Rose doesn't end up as another generic moe/tsundere character

Now that you mention it, I can concur my agreement, it does so much. Never though about it although I did play the game long ago.

Doesn't necessarily seem very good, but hey, story-wise it seems better than Kore wa Zombie Desu ka at least. Feels like Kugimiya's lacking the tsundere element this time around though.
And the OP's pretty good.

I like the idea of the show, the characters and the show is enjoyable enough. I think I will like watching this series each week, however it may annoy me a bit if the story gets serious or dramatic, depending on how they go about it.

It definitely is nice having Kugimiya Rie as Rose.

Also the fact apparently Yui Horie voices a character in this will assure I get to the end of this. =)

The show is fast paced and action filled, as well as having some nice character designs and good background art.

Eriko is a great character! She has obvious flaws right from the start, so she isn't a "perfect girl", and she is attractive (without being outrageously proportioned, just a bit over-sized...) and assertive. Ryuuji seems a bit of a pushover, but that is to be expected with a steamroller like Eriko. Rose is cute as a button! Gotta love a little blond red dragon! :P

The harem set-up seems to be complete when you include the shy girl at school that has a crush the size of Mt. Fuji on him. Still, the level of action and comedy in this first episode lift it above the average harem/moe-fest. This could be quite good! (Rei's Rose crying "Ryuuji!!!!" is too cute for words!)
