@@mariael2620 In my honest opinion very much so, cuz in the light novel, we didn't even know who Kujo was, just that he died, but here they gave him a character with a short yet distinguishable personality and design, which made it even more of a gut punch when he dies and you see his chalk countdown to the completion of his service that'll sadly never come.
@@ChibiReviews I’ve read the novel 😊 I’m hoping for a great adaptation. Btw the book talks a lot about bigotry, it’s very insightful. (P.S I read the authors notes at the end of the book) much of his inspiration comes from history.
86 seems like a very interesting sci-fi mecha show. Love the characters( didn't expect major to be so softhearted), the visuals are gorgeous. And the food transitions are very unique. This anime has a lot of potential, looking forward to more!
It definitely has potential to be good, but we need to see how the story is adapted in anime form. Looking forward to seeing why so many hyped this series up
People keep comparing it to aot but I feel like it is def more similar to IBO same type of ppl basically and just like in IBO I bet a lot of ppl are gonna die
@@S_raph1el idk that’s just one aspect but IBO has the mcs whole crew and planet being treated like shit which is similar to 86 and the main girl being a princess or a higher up person from the “good guys” who wants to advocate for the people being treated like shit and 86 has major death vibes just like IBO where everyone dies
As a Light Novel reader I have to say that this first episode was adapted great. There were some very minor skips and changes, but there was also some added anime original content (which usually isn't a good thing but here it's kinda needed). I hope the adaptation quality continues to be as good. If it's done well, then your questions will be answered sooner or later.
As a historian, I really loved this first episode because the "show don't tell" of this series makes for an interesting analysis, namely about the state of the country. The initial propaganda seems very surreal and reminds me of Nazi Propaganda about their Wunderwaffen at the end the war. I start noticing interesting hints when Annette and Lena's scene where they talk about being forced to eat artificial food regularly as well as eggs and milk being rationed. That's generally not a good sign when contrasted with overly positive propaganda about glorious victories. It's even fishier when you realize that Lena and Annette are both high ranking people and still have trouble getting real food.
Also as someone who read the first volume of the light novel, they definitely went all out with the show don't tell approach. Originally in the LNs, there were a ton of details about the world, the characters, etc. given to us in this beginning section of the story that were delivered as monologues. However while they haven't given us all of the details yet, especially about the enemy, I really appreciate this more subtle approach. Because from what I've seen and remember from the LNs, if you can put two and two together there are quite a few things that you can figure out on your own from this episode alone.
I read the LN a while back. Glad to see this animated & scored by the legend Sawano. Definitely the guy for the tone of this story. This Anime will show the world that at least someone in the Anime industry gets WWII and it's so relevant especially today. It even does so without beating it over your head.
I am glad to hear your honest thoughts about 86 at first sight. You really interpreted the anime well for the first episode.I also had the same thoughts with you when I watched the first episode. I also loved the comment that the white haired people can be AI is so brilliant and a thought came out of my mind if they were AI how would the show be.
To those saying the character design looks like SAO, that was because not only they shared the same studio A-1, they also shared the same character designer Kawakami Tetsuya.
"It's a handlers job to be familiar with what they're working with" was the excuse she gave when told to not interact with the drones. Even if they're not human they are still their resources that cant be wasted or expended.
As with most "mecha"/"war" anime it's less about the "war"/"mecha" and more about the people trapped in it. 86 Eighty Six is no different. Can't wait for the next episode where we hopefully get out first on screen battle and learn more about the world and people.
And here we go again another freaking GEM to enjoy this season ! Springs season isn't as packed as the previous one but we are back with quality and quantity
And I AM DOIN 86/TOKYO REVENGERS/COMBATANTS WILL BE DISPATCHED/FULL DIVE VR RPG ANIME/LOCKER AND OPENER/ LMFAO OK THEN!! NEW CHAPTA LIVE SOON on WEBTOON
The opening scene was the one that was referenced throughout the episode - about their previous handler going maniac and wanting to eventually commit suicide. Also, the show is inspired from circumstances in the United States around the time of World War 2.
@@DarkNorthEmperor the society in 86 is far more comparable to Nazi Germany, where in both nations, citizens can't just be a preferred skin color, but also a preferred hair and eye color. In 86, the civilian society is populated by those who specifically have white hair and blue eyes, while in Nazi Germany, the "aryan master race" had in be blonde with blue eyes. Although Japanese internment was disgusting, it's nothing compared to 86 and Nazi Germany.
@@eyyy2271 that I agree, but the structural basis of the story is based on the Japanese Internment. Well anyway, I'm glad that the anime sticks true to the LN's path.
@@DarkNorthEmperor agreed, I honestly think he is overthinking everything in this video. The differences between the people just seem to be what the government sees to be “pure” and “impure”.
I just watched the episode, and I only realized now with this video, that they might not be ai on the battlefield xD I was so dead set on the soldiers being ai, thx for helping me realize that it wasn't clearly stated!
Actually, i felt something wasn't right, like why one has lost blood and they needed to eat and now knowing that, it really seems they are humans. The country it seems is doing a more extreme germany ww2
I watch 86 because of its short name and nothing else too. And what else can I say, I'm really impressed to the point that I bought light novels and marathon it 36 hours straight and crashed lol.
I really enjoyed the episode, and it's definitely going on my watch list. As an anime only, we'll see where it goes, but my first impression is that we're just talking about a really evil empire that treats everyone without silver hair and blue eyes as sub-human. I doubt we're dealing with altered humans or A.I.; just a not so subtle send-up of the homogeneity of Japan.
I have a feeling it will be a case of the have/have nots, basically meaning that the high ranking military are the "upper class" and are told the "drones" are just machines. That being said I have a feeling the Undertaker/Reaper (I'm guessing one in the same??) has a way to tap in and show those giving the commands what is really happening, this would explain the turnover of commanders for the unit. I'm anime only as well but that is the working theory without looking up any info on the series, but I will be waiting to see how it goes.
As a light novel reader, I really liked episode 1. I'm also hyped that it will have 24 episodes!! I like some of your guesses and all I will say is sit back and enjoy. I think this series will really surprise you.
The hair and eye color probably depends on the various districts that the weather girl talked about. The 86th district seems to be thought as lesser people and expendable. So I'm assuming all of the more wealthier people in the upper districts are more "pure" which is why they all have silver hair and blue eyes
It's definitely my most fav new anime this season after Tokyo Revengers but it can still change since I only watched 4 new Anime so far. Shadow's House is also really interesting.
I imagine that's gonna be a theme throughout the series. Pretty sure the cat followed Shin for a while but stopped after he smiled responding to Lena. Just the grim reaper deciding which ones go next.
that first bit you talked about, hit the nail right on the head for the series Mushoku for me. It relies heavily on Show don't tell and leaves out alot of the finer details I learned about reading the web novels. I don't think they explained things well as Mushoku has alot of things in it's world that requires explanation over showing, such as Adventure guild rules which were never mentioned in the anime until Horse dude said they were breaking rules, Alot of these rules were explained in the novels when they applied to be adventurers. Just as an example, other things that were hard to pick up on were that in the beginning when he was in his world his ribs were broken which contributed to his inability to speak properly while also his voice wasn't working properly from not using it in so long, also that the people who kicked him out were his siblings. The Anime didn't do a good job explaining things, I've found recently the series is mostly showy, the Animation is good, the character designs are nice, the music is good, the Story telling is sub par which is sad cause I'd put the story telling in the novels on One Piece's level.
Let’s not forget 86’d is a slang term often meaning to shoot down, to throw out, to kill, or to bury (origins for the term aren’t clear). Very clever on the writer’s part to choose this term to represent the soldiers. Lena already grabbed me as a kind and capable Leader. She realizes the weight of her far off decisions and how they affect those she commands. Undertaker is a fascinating character, too, and I hope we learn his real name.
The only thing is she seems a bit too emotional to be an amazing leader to me in the first episode. When the squad leader for her first group died it seemed like she started to lose focus because of emotions. I maybe wrong on thinking this but she still seems to emotional to be an amazing leader unlike undertaker who knows that being overly emotional is something that cause even more deaths in war.
Saw the pv a while ago and immediately thought esdeath from akame ga kill. Looked into heard the LN was p good so i gave it a shot. Least to say, this series os gonna be great if the anime pulls it off correctly.
86 where the white hair waifu supremacy has finally been realized. I got so many theories from what I saw going into the series completely blind but I'm like 80% certain the "casualties" are all real humans and descendants of poor people and waifu land is the home of humans that have ascended some way in their private society. Between this and Vivy, Saturdays have been marked as the day of the week to look forward to.
The country seems to be like the ideals of nazi Germany where all the “humans” are deemed pure and the “inhuman” people of 86 are corrupted in some way. Be it possible health problems or just being a different ethnicity or different characteristics.
This is also a guess on my part but it seems to be the logical situation to me. The society and looks of the areas remind me a bit of man in the high castle which makes me think even more that this is supposed to resemble the Nazi Germany ideals just inside of blue eyes and blonde hair it is blue eyes and white hair.
People probably already mentioned this, or already knew, but 86 or something being 86’d means to be rejected or discarded. My prediction is that this place is like the country in the book “The Giver”. The country controls everything and the “86” is the kids that were born that didn’t look how they were supposed to (white hair etc.) Looking forward to this show.
86 reminded me of Gundam Iron Blooded Orphan. Both anime has the story that the rich don't really treat the poor as human and both main female lead showed empathy toward the poor. I like the ost and the 2D mecha more in IBO, but the character animation are slightly better in 86. The CGI mecha is actually better than what I expected, but I still love 2D mecha more than 3D mecha. I can't wait to watch more about 86 in the future.
Considering the light novel series has very high ratings generally, and good reviews as a very general consensus, I think I have faith that if the anime adapts it perfectly its probably going to be good.
Hey Chibi have u kept up or plan on catching up with UnOrdidary ? I was a little curious bc I watched the vids u did on it a while back and I think the story is going in a really interesting direction
@@ihatepower4580 story is going for a redemption/character building for John and Sera recovering her power, the fuck you mean decline? Though I do hope he becomes more of a villain for the villains than a “gotta save everyone because I’m a good guy now” hero, my own opinion though.
I love that the high class people are all White Haired, The Actuall Pilots are the Lower Class Citizens that aren't considered as Human It's not really Original but it is Intruiging nonetheless
I mean people might consider this episode boring which will just drop it without giving any chance, but I’m glad Chiba is sticking to it. Plus, Hiroyuki swano is involved ;)
So, my speculations and brainstorming as an anime only after the first episode: -Gives me a similar feeling to attack on titans Marley situation, but more in a reverse sense. -The advances society where everybody looks similar lives in their perfect little closed off world and have no worries. -On the outside are "normal" people (humans, cyborgs, etc ?) who (have to) sacrifice themselfs in the war, and they are not treated as casualties, meaning they hold no value to the people in the city. Its propably somewhat kept secret from the public aswell. -So in essence a story about discrimination and "racism" kind of (not in a bad sense), where a group of people get exploited by a higher standing group of people. and our main character gets deeper and deeper involved with them to the point where she wants to be on their side and antagonize her own people.
Chibi how can you read and answer youtube comments on your videos and not fear getting spoiled, the last few days I’ve been anxious reading comments and never sorted by new or read replies fearing I would get AoT spoiled

The country controls everything and the “86” is the kids that were born that didn’t look how they were supposed to (white hair etc.) Looking forward to this show.
Why do I feel like this is going to go an almost akame ga kill route?
86 reminded me of Gundam Iron Blooded Orphan. Both anime has the story that the rich don't really treat the poor as human and both main female lead showed empathy toward the poor. I like the ost and the 2D mecha more in IBO, but the character animation are slightly better in 86. The CGI mecha is actually better than what I expected, but I still love 2D mecha more than 3D mecha. I can't wait to watch more about 86 in the future.
Esdesth in the house!
this show is very mature.... Dark ....and interesting
I have heard about this ln so many freaking times but i stopped myself from reading it so i could watch the anime with first experience
This really reminds me of the start of Code geass akito the exiled , the themes and the stances of the main character are really similar.
Considering the light novel series has very high ratings generally, and good reviews as a very general consensus, I think I have faith that if the anime adapts it perfectly its probably going to be good.
Hey Chibi have u kept up or plan on catching up with UnOrdidary ? I was a little curious bc I watched the vids u did on it a while back and I think the story is going in a really interesting direction
I am caught up to the webtoon right now. Loving the direction with John
The story is on a decline
@@ihatepower4580 story is going for a redemption/character building for John and Sera recovering her power, the fuck you mean decline? Though I do hope he becomes more of a villain for the villains than a “gotta save everyone because I’m a good guy now” hero, my own opinion though.
@@Kaizer_Crown nah he's abandoning the person who did everything was and is shit.
@@ihatepower4580 ok
I love that the high class people are all White Haired,
The Actuall Pilots are the Lower Class Citizens that aren't considered as Human
It's not really Original but it is Intruiging nonetheless
I mean people might consider this episode boring which will just drop it without giving any chance, but I’m glad Chiba is sticking to it. Plus, Hiroyuki swano is involved ;)
Try watching Slime Taoshite 300nen
Blue eyes white dragon?
Pretty boy detective club really has that studio shaft and Nishio Issin in there, u should check it
Shadows House when?
ITZ A-1 PICZ BIGGEST PROJECT I HAVE HEARD!!!!!!
So, my speculations and brainstorming as an anime only after the first episode:
-Gives me a similar feeling to attack on titans Marley situation, but more in a reverse sense.
-The advances society where everybody looks similar lives in their perfect little closed off world and have no worries.
-On the outside are "normal" people (humans, cyborgs, etc ?) who (have to) sacrifice themselfs in the war, and they are not treated as casualties, meaning they hold no value to the people in the city. Its propably somewhat kept secret from the public aswell.
-So in essence a story about discrimination and "racism" kind of (not in a bad sense), where a group of people get exploited by a higher standing group of people. and our main character gets deeper and deeper involved with them to the point where she wants to be on their side and antagonize her own people.
My main concern with this is that it is animated by A1 Pictures. Their track record isn't really the best.
There’s no studio with a perfect track record
Well, any concern now?
For some reason I got Iron Blooded Orphans vibes. Enjoyed it though!
honestly a really strong start
6:10 sounds like some Eldian treatment
Really interested in where this anime is going.
Chibi how can you read and answer youtube comments on your videos and not fear getting spoiled, the last few days I’ve been anxious reading comments and never sorted by new or read replies fearing I would get AoT spoiled
Its a great story.. but LN is amazing
Fact. The V.A for Shin also plays Ayanokouji from Classroom of the Elite
i feel like watching a gundam Series, love the politic and war.
This series is giving me Gundam 00 vibes and I love it
I feel this anime is going to break my heart🥺
