I don’t have enough time to do as much blogging as I’d like, but more to the point, I hadn’t actually watched much anime for a while. In this case, I took a look at Guilty Crown episode one, and I wanted to say a quick word.

This show has movie quality visuals. I say this in all seriousness. It starts like a movie, with a long intro with a song accompanying it, and the production values are pure movie in an episode length time frame.

The plot is still largely a mystery, but that’s hooks for you. This did its job of making me bite. This should be one show worth watching and talking about, and I haven’t actually seen many of those lately, but the preceding season is usually one of the slower of the year regardless. – J
