The Spring 2018 anime season has been held in high regard for fans and they were excited to see as many of the new series as they could. Classic series returned, recently popular series received new seasons, and popular mangas got their adaptations.

But one series fans did not see coming is Megalobox, the 50th Anniversary project from the Ashita no Joe series. The series has managed to make an impression on fans during this busy season due to its nostalgic, striking art style that's leading to fans invoking names like Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo.

Along with a nostalgic art style, the series' setting also reminds fans of classic anime series since it has a grounded world with a slight injection of science fiction and steampunk.

And then someone punches someone else in the face, and the series kicks into high gear first episode. Read on to see what fans are saying about Spring 2018's surprise series Megalobox and tell us what you thought of the first episode in the comments!
