MUSAIGEN NO PHANTOM WORLD EPISODE 1


If our brains were for some reason to become altered, the world that we perceive would be different. For example, entities thought to be fiction would become real and appear in front of us.Over a decade ago, due to an incident, the human brain was altered and phantasmal entities became real.

Haruhiko is sleeping when a mini flying girl, a phantom called Ruru, wakes him up and tells himm to hurry because he is late for school. While hurrying to catch the train his 'senpai'(senior) is fighting a big and cool but dangerous phantom. Haruhiko arrives and start drawing the phantom to seal it. while Mai, his senpai, fights it. After destroying school properties they succeed to seal the phantom.

Their sensei(teacher) tells them that they will not get any reward because they destroyed school properties and has to pay. The two are in a club called Hosea Academy Neural Error Correction Room . Which duties are to hunt bad phantom. Haruhiko and Mai are team E which has the worst performance record of the club.

Haruhiko loves to read so after dropping by the library, on his way home, he stumble upon a phantom and witness a girl, Izumi Reina, with a special ability called phantom eater eat the phantom. Haruhiko tries to recruit Reina but due to an accident sees her underwear and gets KO. The next day he goes to apologies and continue to try to recruit her.

Reina refuses so Haruhiko treats her to some food and explain her what phantom is and from where they come from. Reina is still reluctant but goes to check the club. She meets Mai, and is smitten by her, and calls her Onee-sama.

Mai tells them that their sensei, Himeno Arisu, told her that there is a phantom that needs to be sealed. After arriving on site, Haruhiko notices that the phantom is a tsukumogami  and does not need to be fight off but rather complete a small ritual they can be sealed. After a nice competition, they are able to seal the phantom and notices that their are phantom that are not bad but rather angered due to human action. Reina joins the team because Mai and they secure their pay check.

The first episode of musaigen no phantom world was quite good in presenting its main characters and give a good explanation about the unknown of the anime. The anime graphic quality is very good and the moves are very fluid, especially the H part. But except Reina the others ability was not explained well. Well, Reina's ability also were not completely explained. The episode had some good action, humor and echhi part, which were put in some interesting scene. The way the phantom were drawn or interpreted was interesting but it kind of looked like in a virtual reality game.
