Ladies and gentlemen I honestly didn't plan on taking a look at another anime so soon after taking a look at the first two episodes of the Fairy Tail TV anime. However fate has decided that it will / would very much like me to take a look at another anime and just like with Godzilla: Singular Point I completely forgot that this anime was even coming let alone that it technically has had it's first two episodes released for a good few days at least ( at the time of this writing at least) and so join me as I give you my very first impressions of the anime series that is simply called "Edens Zero" enjoy.
Now I honestly have no idea what the plot of this show even is and i've read some of the early issues of the Edens Zero manga and I get that it's kind of usual for the story of anime to start showing around the fourth episode. However there still needs to be some hint of the what the plot of the show is in the first three of in this case the first two episodes which sadly isn't the case and while that may have also been true for the Fairy Tail anime TV series that doesn't mean that it's a legit problem with both shows since you need a story in order to convince people to come back and watch next weeks episode but that's just what I think anyways.
Now then boys and girls since there isn't a cast list out there for these first two episodes and as such i'm just going to list every actor and / or actress who is starring in the show as a whole and so starring in this show is Mikako Komatsu as Rebecca Bluegarden. Also starring in this show is Takuma Terashima as Shiki Granbell , Hiromichi Tezuka as Wise Steiner , Houchu Ohtsuka as Ziggy , Kikuko Inoue as Mother , Rie Kugimiya as Happy , Sayaka Ohara as Elsie Crimson , Shiki Aoki as Homura Kōgetsu and Shiori Izawa as E.M. Pino.
As for what I thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this episode in all honesty the acting that's featured / presented to us in this episode isn't that bad in my humble and very honest opinion and I say that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this episode isn't that bad simply because like with Fairy Tail the idea and concept behind this show is bit farfetched. As such no one would have blamed the actors that are appearing in these first two episodes if they chose to either over act or under act in either these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series or in the show show as a whole and as such it was honestly fairly shocking to see the actors that are appearing in this episode treat the material rather seriously and that honestly I think that that helped the performances of the actors that are appearing in this episode in my humble and very honest opinion it did anyways but that's just what I think anyways.
Doing the animation for not only these first two episodes but for the show as a whole is J.C. Staff and even tho the name J.C. Staff rings a bell I cannot for the life of me think of what it is that J.C. Staff have worked on that is very noteworthy. As for / in terms of what I thought about the animation that's presented to us in these first two episodes in all honesty the animation that's presented to us in these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series is at best OK which for an anime let alone an anime that's adapting the work of Fairy Tail creator Hiro Mashima having animation that's just OK and nothing more then that should never be the case in my humble and very honest opinion.
Now then boys and girls if you know Fairy Tail creator Hiro Mashima likes to include characters from his previous work in his new manga and in this case anime and well the same thing is true for this anime. Since not only does Happy appear in these first two episodes of the Edens Zero TV anime series but he's also a main character and not only that but if you look in the background in episode then you might find some more Fairy Tail characters appearing in cameo roles and even tho this post is spoiler free to me saying that characters from Fairy tail are appearing the second of the Edens Zero TV anime series isn't a spoiler since it doesn't spoil the overall plot of the second episode in humble and very freaking honest opinion anyways.
Now then boys and girls incase your all wondering how I manged to see both episode one and episode two of this show. I manged to watch episode one and as well as episode two of this show simply due to the fact that both of these episodes were streamed on March 29th 2021. Now I don't know where these first two episodes were streamed but it's taken at least two days for both episodes one and two of this show to be fully subbed and to be uploaded on to some *ahem* shall we say "other methods" type of websites and which I do not condone using any of those websites nor do I condone watching these first two episodes of the Edens Zero TV anime series the way that I watched the first two episode of the Edens Zero anime TV series.
Now then boys and girls there is at least one character so far who bares a striking resemblance to a main character from Fairy Tail (please note that i'm not including the space pirate princess who looks alot like Erza since i'm only including the characters that we spend alot of time win these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series) and that's Rebecca Bluegarden who looks so much like Lucy Heartfilia that it's actually unreal how much that they both look very similar to each other. Heck I wouldn't blame anyone who was either reading Edens Zero when it first came out of if there thinking about watch the anime adaption of Edens Zero if they got confused and thought that Rebecca Bluegarden was infact Lucy Heartfilia I mean heck the very least that Hiro Mashima could have done is change Rebecca's hair colour just something would have helped to make her stand out / look a little bit different from Lucy Heartfilia but that's just what I think anyways.
Combined this two episodes have a total running time of at least forty five to possibly even fifty minuets but I could be wrong there so don't hold me to that running time. Unlike the first two episode of the Fairy Tail anime TV series the first episode of the Edens Zero anime TV series aren't telling one story and as such I honestly don't mind the fact that these two episodes seemed a bit rushed because here they are not constrained by the fact that there rushing to tell one episode story in a total of at least forty five minuets to fifty but they are instead constrained by the standerd twenty two minuet running time as such I do feel that having at least first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series at least be forty five minuets each would have helped the episodes since they are still rushing to hit certain plot points and as such any and all impact that those plot points could have are now lost due to how rushed these episodes can feel but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and very honest opinions anyways.
Now then boys and girls since this is an action anime and there is some action to be found in both of these first two episode of the Edens Zero anime TV series that means that I do have to actually talk about the action that's presented to us in the first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series and in all honesty the action that's featured in these first two episodes of the the Edens Zero anime TV series wasn't that bad in my opinion. Since the action is in all honesty very exciting and there are some cool moments in the actions scenes that are presented to us in these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series but at the same time there's nothing really new that's brought to the table with these action sequences either which is a shame because like I said the action in these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series is full of really cool moments but that's just what I think anyways and as well that's just in my humble and very honest opinion anyways.
Overall these first two episodes of the Edens Zero TV anime series / anime TV series were in my opinion at least really good. Yes there are some bad moments in these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series / Tv anime series but those moments could also be found in other anime and yes i've talked about about both of the good and both the bad things that I found in these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series / TV series anime / TV anime series in this very review and since this is only my very first impressions of the Edens Zero anime I won't be giving a rating / ranking for the Edens Zero anime since it wouldn't be fair of me to judge a new shows just based of the first two episodes alone since any show can have some good or some bad first two episodes and like I said it wouldn't be fair of me to judge the Edens Zero anime just based of these first two episodes of the Edens Zero anime TV series / TV series anime / TV anime series. As for where I got the images that I used in this review well i got all of the images that I used in this review from the official Edens Zero fandom wiki page , Google Images and the official Edens Zero fandom wiki page with my preferred website to use to get images from the Edens Zero anime being the official Edens Zero fandom wiki page just due to how high quality as well as how how definition the images on the official Edens Zero fandom wiki page truly are in my humble and very honest opinion that is.
