I liked the episode. Some complex story elements but I am worried that instead of cowboy bepop wibes we will get mecha but human sized; of wich I am not a fan.

I hope the character dynamic will be good. We have got some scenes but not very much.

I am a sucker for western sci-fi/cyberpunk. I think I inhaled too much hopeium.

My biggest worry about this show after seeing the first episode is that it is going to be a lot of style with well-executed and choreographed action set pieces, but with a story that makes no sense and characters that don't have any chemistry. What we have seen so far of Rouge and Naomi looks promising, but like you said, there is so little we have seen so far. You and I are inhaling the same supply right now :)

Agree, first episode didn't convince me. You don't really know what main character aim is and you barely know anything about the characters

For me first episodes was : look there is robots, they are not supposed to attack humans, some humans are shit with them (leafing to their death). And aside some ancient special robots doesn't have the same limitation and main character will target them? But why? Nothing is tipped about it to justify actions. It seems it was all to add a twist but it would have been better to give more context.

I think I am going to skip this anime.
