I watched it tonight, but I thought the characters were very crappy looking!

Some were wide and some were way to skinny

one face look liked the width of my pinky LOL

yes i thought it was a very half assed job, terrible detail, effortless animation, completely formulaic in storytelling, and the overall character design was just shoddy. And what's with Forerunner buildings being Japanese pagodas? Artistic license is fine and all, but when the structures we've seen from the forerunner before are basic geometric monoliths, isn't that a tad too far?

I'm not a huge anime fan, but it wasn't bad. I'm curious to see how the rest are.

It was surprisingly good. I just didn't like some of the anime cliches, such as the spiky haircuts. Where are the army haircut regulations?!?

@dan: The UNSC marines' hair was all short, infact the only real chiched hairstyle was o'brian. Hes a noob anyway tbh.

He's an ODST. Are you gonna tell him to cut his hair?

I still believe the spartan's capabilities are far exaggerated. When pulling out the drop pod from the water she looked like some sort of gorilla, then she takes one hit from the brute and dies...eh.

it's a 20 minute video. Stay off the internet before you see it if you don't want spoilers.

I really liked the episode but it was a bit weird how the Forerunner built distinctly Japanese style buildings.

It's also strange that there's no height requirement for ODSTs; that O'Brian guy is about 4' tall tops.

Disappointing I think, this seems like it has more in common with the Gotham Knight anime anthology than just the anthologyness of it. Typical anime tropes, a tough selfish little punk gets shamed and taught a lesson and turns into a nice guy, all while having ridiculous spiky hair.SPOILERS SPOILERS The Spartan turning out to be a woman was all to formulaic as well. SPOILERS ENDWell, studio 4C did make the absolute worst parts of Gotham Knight, so I can hope that the other episodes will be better. All in all it wasnt as terrible as GK was, it was at least entertaining to watch the Spartan backstab some grunts and fight the brute chieftain.

Yeah I agree. I can't sit thru a lot of the Gotham Knight features.. After 3 minutes I get too confused and keep thinking I'm watching The AniMatrix. =P

I fear the same for this Halo adaption.

Wasnt too bad to be honest. The spartan was overexagerrated though. I understand them being big, but last I checked their arms weren't supposed to swell to the size of tree trunks.

I thought the episode was well done, even though a few nuances of predictability floated about. However, that's also something that made it so great. Being easy to follow and very entertaining all in the scope of fifteen minutes is just fine with me. And, as a dedicated Halo fan, it was awesome to see the fiction come to life in such a way.

For those who've read all the books, there's a tiny tid bit at the end that'll keep you wondering how the next episodes will either nod toward the cannon of the books or use them as a basis for plot elements. I'm pumped to see what's in store for us next Saturday!

it was a bit cliched, but overall the anime was good and produced well, albeit on the short side.
cant wait for the next episode
