So, Magical Girl realizes she's actually damaging the town, hurting people, and that this world's rules aren't like hers, and thus she... powers up in order to do more damage?
What the hell.
Quips aside, I actually really liked how torn she got when she saw that her being in another world meant that the usual magical girl scenario won't happen. I'm also very interested in having a rival/villain show up and what he's got to add to all this. The main characters themselves, however, are a bit boring to me right now. Hopefully Selestia has good interactions with her Creator.
Also somehow I can see the review Theron's posted, but not the main series page for the reviews, and I had to manually create a title for this. Maybe I broke something.

This is like a reverse isekai show with a diverse cast of characters.
The only one I'm not impressed so far is Souta. He just seems so plain. Hopefully this show will develop him more. Besides that, I find this to be quite entertaining so far with what it has to offer. The technical aspects (especially the music) is done pretty well.

I must be the only one who's not a big fan of the music here, or any music by Hiroyuki Sawano. It's almost like his signature move to make his music as loud as possible, stealing the spotlight, and overshadow what's actually going on in the story.
In contrast, I'm much more of a fan of Yokoyama Masaru's music and OST (Your Lie in April, Plastic Memories, Erased, and the currently airing Seven Mortal Sins).

THANK YOU! I wanted to ask that since the beginning.

I have a secret hope that a certain 'Revi' an 'Rock' would show up-seeing how the bugger has not even finished the current arc,sort of a bone tossed to his fans.
One can dream right?

The anime so far has given us a girl jumping/pushed in front of the train,Souta's having a dead sister, the Military Princess knowing Souta and Souta's having an "unborn world".
So Souta has a bigger part to play it seems.

Something tells me Mamika would be most disturbed by finding doujinshi of her, though I can't imagine Selesia would be pleased.

This. So much this. I thought I was the only one who thought Sawano is actually a terrible composer. I swear it, he manages to ruin almost every series he's in by copy-pasting the same ost over and over again. It's like he tries to draw all the attention to his ultra-bombastic music (which basically repeats the same motif every single time) instead of complementing the scenes, which is what a good composer should do.
It's such a pity with the huge amount of talented musicians making anime ost's he's currently the most succesful one...

"Otaku catnip" is a perfect way to describe series like this and Re:Zero. Thank you for that.

I was thinking about this after the 2nd episode and wondered if that may not be an option. Maybe the ability to create these worlds is predicated upon the use of the author's imagination. So if they're being forced and not actually using the 'creative' side of their brains then the changes don't actually take place.

Quote: | but Silesia shines as a take-charge action heroine, a remarkably adaptable young woman who nonetheless doesn't take kindly to discovering that average people know everything about her, that she can be observed 24/7, and that someone else is controlling her life and everything that happens to her on his whim. I can easily see her becoming one of the season's hottest new characters. |
It helps that she's not a violent tsundere or a stuck up "MUH HONOR" type of character you might expect her to be. I'll always welcome main heroines who are genuinely nice and friendly.

I personally love his music, would watch every show that has his music, and lot of people probably feels the same. The only time his music is bombastic is when there is a fight scene, and the director of the show makes sure that the fight is also bombastic (no pun intended) to maximize the hype level of the scene. And Sawano is perfectly capable of composing atmospheric BGM for non-fighting scenes too, there are already quite a few of them in Re:Creators, for instance I really liked the one that played when Matsubara was evaluating Selesia's appearance when they first met, it perfectly captured the "playboyish" atmosphere of the scene (I don't know a better word than "playboyish").
I really don't know what you mean by "ruin almost every series he's in by copy-pasting the same ost over and over again". Some shows and games were great precisely because of his involvement, and those shows wanted people who watch it to be hyped as ****, and that was exactly what Sawano's music helped those shows achieve. I mean, Attack on Titan would not be Attack on Titan if it wasn't for Sawano. Kill la Kill would not be the same if it wasn't for Sawano. A lot of shows would not be the same if it wasn't for Sawano. A lot of shows WOULDN'T have been as good if it wasn't for Sawano (like Aldnoah Zero).

Can't say I've paid much attention to his work, but I really enjoyed the music for Thunderbolt Fantasy.
And I really wonder how any of these fights are going to be covered up. The last fight was at nighttime and no one really got a clear view, but a magical girl flying around and bombing buildings is rather difficult to hide.

This anime certainly looks like an interesting ride. I picked it up on whim when it started and it already sucked me in (I started with Re:Zero in a similiar way one year ago and turned out great, I'm hoping it'll be the same for Re:Creators)

So far out of everything I'm watching this season Re:Creators is the thing I like the most I mean the fan speculation alone is a thing to behold. I mean the newest character has shown up and people on social media already have him pegged as a coded Persona reference or Shaman King, or Jojo's Bizarre Adventure or a mixture of all three.
As well as probably one of the funnier bits for me at least is the beginning of the series being long bits of philosophical and expository dialogue because the character doing it is the NPC tutorial/save point character it still makes me laugh as I think about it. Personally I can't wait for Makagami Chikujouin (voiced by Maaya Sakamoto) to show up.
