Nggak tahu apa yang sebenarnya terjadi, tapi aku lumayan tertarik sama konsepnya. Jarang ada kombinasi elemen tradisional dan modern begini. Setiap adegan semakin mengejutkan dan membuat banyak pertanyaan. Semoga banyak dijawab juga di episode berikutnya.
Animasinya jernih, tajam dan berkualitas tinggi. Plotnya mengalir dengan pace yang pas.

A brutal and direct start. It's been a long time since I've seen an anime that captivated me so much from the first episode. The animation in that first appearance is incredible and leaves me with many questions.

Very interesting start to the anime, it is always enjoyable when an Anime contrasts modern technology with classical characters, and seeing the overwhelming force of modern technologies "dragons" fight against simple villagers makes for a great introduction to the series.

The first episode has a quiet, fast pace and a steady storyline. The villain is overwhelming, and we do get the vibe of present vs past timelines here. The graphics are lowkey nice and satisfying to watch! It also contains gore and brutal moments which aren't suitable for kids!

Un episodio estreno muy impactante que nos muestra directamente a los protagonistas, con un giro de trama que rompió las expectativas que tenía para este anime en los primeros minutos. Muy interesante, con una animación bastante decente aunque ocupe CGI en algunas escenas. Pero es un anime que tiene puestas muchas expectativas encima al ser de la misma creadora que Full Metal.

I actually spoiled this episode’s reveal for myself on Instagram before watching it, but that was what made me want to watch it. The episode is great, though it starts a bit slowly. Once the action starts, it really hits, and the beginning may be a little confusing because everything develops so fast, but that helps put you in the MC’s shoes. Exposition be damned — we’ll get that later.

Going from a peaceful mountain village vibe to straight up warfare out of nowhere gave me massive hype. That cliffhanger ending is great.

1st Episode was unexpected, revelations and plots was surprising. I thought it was an anime setup in the old era at the start but everything changed at the climax

EPISODE CONTEXT

As the first episode of a 24-episode run, this premiere serves as the inciting incident that rips the protagonist out of his sheltered existence and launches the overarching narrative. It establishes the central mystery surrounding the twins' nature and the dangerous forces interested in them. Everything that follows across both cours builds from the foundation — and the devastation — laid down here.
