Also if you omit the first 5 mins the show would have been fine it would just be some batshit insane loli killing generic dudes. Her first fight being her first fall into madness. You really weren't paying attention if "humans suck" is what you got out of that scene and that's not being rude. You accusing me of kissing the show's ass is definitely being rude though so hey I guess you've got a little hypocrisy in you. BTW without that scene the rest of Tanya's character makes absolutely no sense so no it shouldn't have been cut down. I will say sorry for accusing you of kissing the show's ass though. Okay, maybe it would've made sense but it'd just be some randomly overpowered loli for the sake of having an overpowered loli which I'd say is way inferior to what we have here. |

| God damn I love Aoi Yuuki. This show is fun. |
| This backstory definitely makes him/her a far more interesting character, but I don't feel like that is enough to really capture me. |
| God damn, this is the level of badassery Drifters failed to achieve. |
| Well this was interesting, there just needs to be a little more explanation for things. Definitely started to like Tanya a lot more |
| This episodes was really awsome, now I have a question. Does God gave her that magic talent? and if yes why? The magic skill can border her to use it in the war (dangerous life) or make her life easier? God has a plan for her, I think. |
 |
| Well I had planned to drop this after the first episode but seeing the comments I got curious... Why didn't they just put this as the first episode? Still not sure I'll continue to watch this though. I really really don't like her voice. |
| Apparently, pissing off the God is an exceedingly bad idea. On many levels. On a related note, Tanya is definitely a loli one should avoid getting caught by. |
| Wow, this episode was so great especially the execution of the time stop scene with little to no movement was done so well. I would have liked to see a bit more of Tanya growing up in that new world, but it still worked fine. Yūki Aoi's voice acting has pretty much elevated into a league of its own by now. |
| The main character has an interesting personality but, I doubt we will see a memorable ending or something with heart value. what annoys me the most the God philosophy: does God exist? even though there are many series with atheist protagonist or with characters that we identify as "gods" here, the main concept of the story is about an atheist salary man fighting against god and this in itself is absurd. |
| This could be Drifters 2.0 as an entertaining show with not the best writing. I really enjoyed this episode, it had a background story and nice action. Looking forward to this anime. 4/5 |
This anime is on the right track. Excellent second episode, I liked it a lot. |
 |
| After watching this for like the thirtieth time from beginning to end while on the subway... or in-between breaks at war and reading the LN and then manga to the latest english translations... I can definitely say that I prefer and love the anime adaptation (so far) over the LN and Manga. Of course, I enjoyed how in-depth the LN was and felt ecstatic throughout the read but the tone/atmosphere of the 3 different platforms are as different as heaven, earth and hell a-like if i had to compare them. The manga has some attention to detail with extreme contrast between light and heavy themes. For example... Tanya seems way too cutesy and child-like compared the anime depiction in specific situations (which is what i was exposed to first) and it just feels weird even without that exposure. Though it's understandable as the readers can interpret a scene in many different ways... The LN is very well balanced and pretty funny and analytical. The anime so far has a much darker portrayal of Tanya but overall a great adaptation of the LN (although they switch the orders of things) I'm curious to see how many volumes 12 episodes will cover and i hope it won't be rushed. |

| This is the best serious comedy I've seen since Sakamoto and I love it. I was expecting it to be another edgy military shlock, but this... This was hilarious in all the right ways. Kira Yoshikage, reincarnated as a cute blonde Loli in world war 1 Germany, what's not to love? |
There is nothing terribly wrong with feeling lost, so long as that feeling precedes some plan on your part to actually do something about it. Too often a person grows complacent with their disillusionment, wearing their discomfort like a favorite shirt - Johnny C.   |
| Awesome episode. First eps was just meh to me, but this one... damn, first five min... so good. Great turnaround. Love the song and the sound effects are mind numbingly killer. This show really redeemed itself for me. Can't wait for next episode. |
| Well, that was certainly interesting. It's great to see how the evil Tanya managed to figure out all of these military tactics at such a young age. So she was reincarnated from a salaryman who lacked faith around 2013 AD? Niceeee. Now he's been reborn into a loli-type fighter. At first I was having trouble with the girl designs with Tanya and Viktoriya but I'm sure that I'll get used to their chubby cuteness. I like seeing the war scenes for some reason. I think that it's the opening theme that was played at the end? I really liked it. Reminds me of Black Lagoon's theme. HAHA. The ending scene was really cute, too. Time to get used to living in the body of a nine-year-old girl. |
Tokoya said: And it's ironic how Tanya the SAVAGE wanted an easy life in the military only for that plan to go to shit xD That reminds me of how the MCs of heavy object pushed for the same only to get the reverse. |

| Yeah, okay, this is pretty entertaining. |
| Aw shit... I didn't wanna watch it cuz of the fucky art... But it's actually not that bad (except for duckling-face-girl, Viktoriya). Psycho loli mc, different and does not fail to entertain. |

Takuan_Soho said: Dude you're late. I already admitted my faults and people in this thread kindly broke it down for me. No need to be rude and try and start shit. Stop it. Were you so wanting to get in on this? "oh my god! Someone is wrong. Time to own them!" Also I wasn't playing the victim. GTFO with that sjw bullshit. It's getting annoying.MasterHavik said: I think I figured that out but it was buried under this long winded explanation of humans suck. So thanks for being rude. I'm sorry, I'm not kissing the show's ass. I feel that scene could have been cutdown some. I do so love when people project their own problems onto the show. And I love how people who try to criticize a show's alleged faults and then get called on it, then try to pretend they are the victim. No, you are not. You criticized something that was explained 5 times in this episode, you deserved to be put down for that. Literally, you were like the person in a Southwest Airlines commercial who "wants to get away" after being exposed as being ignorant. Now, that aside, you should trust writers more, wait until they do something obviously screwed up. They are professional. Most know what they are doing. Next episode will explain all the problems people have so far. Overall I think the adaptation has been brilliant. 2-3-1 would have been better for most fans of the series. but for new viewers (like me) 1 really establishes Tanya as a character and made you want to see more, 2 filled in half of the gaps, so I expect 3 to fill in the rest. Particularly since it seems that they are going to do 3-4 of the novels. Would love for it to be more comprehensive, but I am also happy to see more of the story animated since a season 2 is always dicey, even if it sells well. I swear people hate reading and rather just react to whenever they see something they disagree with. |

| Having just watched the anime, and seen the LN covers, I went ahead and read the manga and caught up quickly. Oh I did enjoy this episode though. For an adaption they're doing pretty great. I just hope they stay true to the actual character of Tanya. Wonder what cool sky flying equipment do they have? |
| So, Tanya is a grown ass, Japanese salaryman reincarnated into the body of a little German girl? Wow!! |
 |
| eh this is kinda edgy and cringey but still entertaining i guess |
 |
| Interesting episode, now I know why Tanya's like that. The last part tho JINGO JUNGLE so goooood 4/5 |

I swear people hate reading and rather just react to whenever they see something they disagree with. I wasn't attacking your mistake as much as expressing my annoyance at the expression: " I'm not kissing the show's ass." I have seen that expression countless times on MAL, I hate the attitude that is behind it. And you have it big time. It's the lack of understanding your own tone (smug condescension). No one was attacking you for making a mistake, but rather returning your tone with the appropriate tone. Don't pretend as if your statements are value neutral questions. Your first comment was: "Well this has to be one of the worst episode intros to an anime I ever seen." You then followed it up by calling someone rude because they wrote: "Try paying attention next time. Salaryman kept his memory when he was reborn as Tanya." There was nothing rude in that response. You, as you now admit, completely missed the single most important thing in this episode. It was not only explained in that "boring" (in your words) first five minutes, but at least 5 times afterwords. So having your lack of comprehension pointed out wasn't someone being rude, but being extremely factual. So, yes, you did, and still are, playing the victim. Get over yourself. My past statements were not vaild at all. By the way, there is a differences between statement and question. They have this magical thing known a period and question mark. Everything I said was a statement not a question. I am trying to say this the nicest way I can without you shouting at me, "You're being smug!" I never said they were and they were my fault. Yes they were rude. I said sorry to the right parties and we went o about out day. You are the one bring this up again when the matter has been settle looking to pick a fight with someone on something that is settle. Dude I'll keep this simple for you, I'm not playing the victim.(I hate people say that now). I have admitted my faults. I was also willing to hear out two people explain the first 5 minutes to me. My past statements in this thread were in poor taste and I'm man enough to admit that. Now can we move on, or are you going to keep bothering me about this? Oh wait, you'll just say I'm playing the victim again because that is the go to buzzword for when someone feels they are being attack or disrespected by someone. In short, it was a mistake and I am man enough to admit that. I find it funny you telling me to get over myself when I already did and everything was cool until you decided to sneak in and give your two cents. |
