Wow, this first episode was really something. As a manga reader, this episode was absolutely nuts. Don't get me wrong, I like the manga, but it didn't deserve the level of production that went into this first episode.

That opening sequence was absolutely wild. They went 4:3, with a hand-painted cel look that made me feel like I was watching an old Hanna-Barbera cartoon. Then, the ninja that show up later and the fight that they had, were so needlessly well animated. The final thing I am going to mention about the animation was just how hard they went animating Satoko's leaf jutsu that first time. Just what the hell...

I enjoyed the manga enough that I wanted to check out the show, but this cranked my interest way up. They have really outdone themselves with this adaptation so far. Now I can't wait for more cast members to show up.
