If by "exotic" you mean "utterly terrifying", then sure.

Pretty good adaptation so far. They've changed a few things and modernised the setting, but the core story and characters seem to be mostly intact. I just hope they can afford this level of quality in the rest of the series.
Changes from the manga: spoiler[-Shinichi being wimpier, he didn't have a fear of bugs or glasses in the manga. -Instead grabbing Murano's boob Migi felt up some random girl's shoulder, pretty tame by today's standards. -Instead of saving some little girl Shinichi got into trouble with some bullies who Migi Beat up. -Tachikawa's role was much smaller in the manga, she only showed up for a few chapters. -The dog was just some stray dog instead of a corgi. Also, they got the heart right this time, in the manga it was a human heart almost the size of Shinichi's head. Chalk it up to the mangaka's poor grasp of dog anatomy...] |

I blame my Amish upbringing. Lotsa barn-raising stuff but not so much with the hentai and tentacles.

When I get tired of the music from last season's anime, the next season always steps it up. I love it. The timing of the BGM in episode one was just perfect, especially during that short engage and fight scene. Looking forward to this anime even though it's wasn't exactly my first choice for this season.

I have, and I've never seen a tentacle monster practice autofellation. they are usually busy ravaging magical girls who suck at their job. anyways, back on track, I liked what I saw, so I'm sticking with it |

Being a magical girl seems like a tough gig. Most other jobs if you suck at them, you might get a bad performance review or even laid off, but at least you don't have to worry about getting the high hard one, tentacle-wise. |

Episode 2:
Good episode again. I really like how spoiler[Madhouse is faithfully adapting the important elements of this series. Anyways, the violence continues although the teasing from Migi was a bit amusing to watch, even at school lol.] They used the same dubstep music as last time so might have to get used to that. That ending is quite something though.... |

spoiler[Izumi got used to his right hand friend pretty fast. Having Migi around is proving to be handy. The bathroom scene was ROFL It's good Izumi wanted to do something about the killings. Was surprised Migi resisted the temptation to ditch Izumi. Guess he likes his host a lot! Wow, Izumi sure got way cooler & brave too!] |

Aww, man, I was expecting way more out of the spoiler[hand turns into penis] scene. Part of it was probably that they couldn't really show it I'm guessing. TV rules and all. The bathroom scene was new, that was funny and made sense within context.
I am enjoying the fight animation. I know from reading the manga, it could just be a pure blur, but it's actually very clear to follow. The rock catch was awesome looking too. Since the manga was 12 volumes originally (before getting the kanzenban editions, which is what DelRey and Kodansha used for theirs), about 2 eps per volume works out well and I think it's keeping to that so far (I'm guessing since I'm only familiar with the 8 volume edition). If that's the case, stuff should really kick into high gear around episode 5 or 6. |

Was spoiler[hoping they would touch on the subject of the dead body he left behind (the dog and now the human). There both still in monster form so people would have found them and it'd be pretty obvious there was something funky going on. Plus there's no reason for Shinichi not to drop in an anonymous phone call to the cop telling them what happened if he want to help (heck he could even saw it was two monster fighting each other, no reason to implicate himself), I'm sure they could get lots of useful info out of the body. Hope it doesn't turn into one of those show you have to ignore a bunch of stuff to enjoy]

Episode 2
Hmm, I did not really think about it before, but the parasites feel quite familiar to what was done in the recent Resident Evil games, the plaga. I think that the thought came to me when I saw the spoiler[head go whip like while the rest looked unchanged]. And as we see he really did not even spoiler[need to ask for a favour, Migi seemed happy to try itself], although a better place and time could have been chosen. |

It's been a while since I've seen a show that mixes the laughs with the chills in quite the same way this one does.
It looks like Shinichi has attached himself to a logic processor of an organism, although it's hard to deny its logic regarding the existence of devils and demons. |
