Death Parade: Episode 1 Early Access Reaction!
Added 2023-04-08 13:00:02 +0000 UTC**DART-WORTHY HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
This series has had my curiosity, but NOW it has my attention! A bop of an OP, a mysterious limbo, an arbiter who may or may not be an unreliable narrator, and a Saw-like game where winning or losing may make the difference between reincarnation and your soul "voiding" from existence!
The art style, premise, and TENSION and psychological intrigue has me REALLY excited for this series!

2023-04-10 14:09:53 +0000 UTCI absolutely am head over heels already with this series and THESE VA's! No wonder I recognized Decim's VA -- it's HAK! OMG! Yessss, and NOBARA'S (and Higuchi's) VA's!? Fantastic! I love that -- I'm so excited to see where this series takes us, especially with these voice talents! Thank you for the kind words and comment and have a great day, too!

2023-04-09 22:49:10 +0000 UTCYesss, this episode brings up the possibility that we will not find out ALL the information about what's going on in the moment and that maybeeee we have unreliable narration? It's a crazy time but I'm really excited after this episode to see what will happen! Thanks for the comment and kind words!

2023-04-09 21:11:08 +0000 UTCI'm SO excited -- this first episode definitely has me excited for what's to come! Thank you for the kind words and comment!

2023-04-09 21:10:45 +0000 UTCIt did in the after credit scene, it's quick but I think it's notable, that the 'players' get told one thing, and the 'colleagues' are told another.

2023-04-09 17:48:01 +0000 UTCSo just going from this first episode rewatch I feel like it's not quite clear what the world mechanics are, the episode says it's heaven and hell first, but later brings up the void and reincarnation, those are very different mechanics. one's more of a western type cosmology the other it's more eastern, or are they all an option? I legit don't remember. Having said that I love the ambiguity of the result, was it a lie? a misunderstanding? was the outcome fair? Such and ambiguous feeling episode.

2023-04-09 08:21:03 +0000 UTCoh wow, it's been years since I've seen this show and i barely remember anything other than i liked it a lot so I'm excited to go through it again and watch your reactions/discussions!

2023-04-08 22:21:00 +0000 UTCSo, Decim is voiced by Maeno Tomoaki who voiced Hak in AkaYona. Takashi is voiced by Nakai Kazuya who voiced Shibusawa in Bsd. The girl at the end with the black hair is voiced by Seto Asami who voiced Higuchi in bsd and Nobara in Jujutsu kaisen. I'm so excited. It is just a great series. It's definitely fucked up. A lot of questions right from the start. The opening is a banger and I also love the ending a lot. I think that last part of Machiko was an act. How her mouth like gets tighter, how she holds her stomach. I think she acts at that point to make him feel better. It looks like she cheated but feels regret/remorsefull about it. It seems like she really does love Takashi. Wish you a wonderful day!

2023-04-08 17:07:08 +0000 UTCAhhh, we will have to make a Discord channel now! But I am SO excited! This show already has a bop of an OP and I really am enjoying it! Thank you for the kind words and comment!!

2023-04-08 15:13:43 +0000 UTCThe other ones I'm doing now won't change but in the future I will likely have to be more proactive with the changing times and reactors being targeted. The reactions and discussions will still be there though!
Romaniablack
2023-04-08 15:10:40 +0000 UTCCool. I hope the rest of the reactions still have them though cause I like to watch them on my phone and I can't have two screens on at once on it. Enjoyed the reaction.

2023-04-08 14:39:27 +0000 UTCYes, in light of a lot of reactors getting targeted, I'm trying to be more proactive and trying this out. I hope you all still enjoy the reactions and discussion!

2023-04-08 14:04:24 +0000 UTC!! This show is kind of nostalgic to me since this show was a big thing back when I first started to get into anime. (EVERY amv had to have clips of this show). SO hyped for this ride tho!! The op is a BANGER, this has great characters (by great, I mean hot but u know what I mean), and the story is interesting~~ As you probably already guessed by the first ep. In my opinion, this show has one of the BEST first episodes. It immediately gave us so much, with almost no answers. You will love this show. Can't wait for next week!! p.s. where's the death parade discord channel ?? :O
