Higashi no Eden (Eden of the East)

[Neversoft]

GG's subs are actually quite lame. They might be better than Desire's but GG are just trolls. They stated that they would sub the first episode only as a joke... but then they go on to sub episode two and three as well. Make your mind up, eh? You gonna drop this series or not? Their translation is surprisingly different from the rest of the subbers too. Frostii and Lunar have the best subs. Desire's are alright, and Mistwalker's are also pretty good. Just because GG subbed Code Geass it doesn't mean they're any good. Oh and Shinsen and Jade are also subbing it I think. Haven't checked them out though. Why does a series need so many subbers? It has as much as Fullmetal Alchemist.

By the way, Higashi no Eden makes the most movie references I have ever seen... In episode one it referenced The Borune Identity and Taxi Driver. In episode two it referenced The Lion King and Ground Zero, and in episode three it referenced Dawn of the Dead, Scarface and Le Grand Bleu. Theres probably more I didn't pick up on as well.

Again, another fantastic episode. I expect no less. Seriously, you guys should watch this.

Please continue being a messiah.

Okay Im going to watch the episodes that are out now I'll get back to you in 1 hour

[Neversoft]

Two hours later and nothing! Damn you and your lies!

I watched all 4 episodes and I loved it.
Sorry for taking so long I was reading some D.gray-man chapters and watched the latest DBK episode.
But yeah I love the storyline and artstyle, it's awesome.

Did you really watch it? The way the main female lead is drawn instantly reminded be of a Hayao Miyazaki created character. They have that kind of lovable magic. The story starts of very Bourne like, but now it seems to be taking an even more interesting and original direction. The whole Selecao idea is very intriguing. I can't wait to see how both the characters and story develop, and how the series will end considering it's only eleven episodes long. Also, is the opening good or is the opening good? Never has a song matched an opening so well. Oasis suit Higashi no Eden perfectly, and it's so mysterious you get something more from it every time. I love it!

[PaulMacC]

I dont like Oasis so I wont judge it lol. But I do like the opening visuals.

[Neversoft]

Everyone likes Oasis. Your existance is nothing if you don't.

[PaulMacC]

Oasis are rubbish :/

[Neversoft]

...and that's your opinion but every sane person knows that Oasis are good!
