Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress Episode 1 Reaction
🕑 Added 2019-04-03 11:28:47 +0000 UTCToday marks the start of another new series and it's the runner-up from New Series Tournament #2! I really enjoyed this first episode despite people telling me it's an AoT rip-off. Which, by the way, it isn't a rip-off. Anyway, enjoy WarriorZ!

Nothing wrong with mindless fun.

Its not a rip off but, more like a generic AoT with a generic plot, characters and a lame villain. AoT turns into a dark series later on with some serious shit and Kabaneri is well mindless.

Just going to enjoy it for what it is.

So personally, while I don't believe it's an actual rip-off of AoT, you'll notice as it progresses, this anime original series was /heavily/ inspired by AoT (and makes sense sorta given they share the same studio). Of course, with the borrowed/inspired ideas, it does take some liberty and tries to improve/twist them up, with varying levels of success Overall, while I do have issues towards the end of the series with plot elements and certain characters, it should be an enjoyable ride that you'll definitely enjoy!
Mumei litteraly mean "No name". Like you said, the art work is amazing, but unfortunalty the plot is not amazing, not saying that because it has Aot vibes, but you will see in the laters episodes.
