The girl trying to get better to get to battle. The guy is letting her sleep and said he will get the bento for her.

ED is OP. And the real boss asked the guy to go home.

The older twin sensing if that guy's going to be there and is frightened. He showed up and told them not to be there because they are too strong to be existed. To exclude them...

Intermission image = girls with Christmas outfits.

The guy is letting everyone to feel the hunger. lol @ the three of them getting the real boss beaten and let them involve. Yaoi girl, who couldn't concentrated, is joining later.

They (the guy and the witch girl) are sharing one gorgeous unagi bento.

OP is ED.

Hercules got what he deserved. Everyone joined in too even Hana and the twins finished him off nicely.

lol at Yo getting everyone hungry.

Kyo twin joining the group at the end is nothing short of great.

I want that unagi bento.

10/10

The best series that aired in Fall based on a concept that would normally would get a 3 or 4 under normal conditions, the action and comedy were excellent, had some good fanservice, and an ok story.

I really enjoyed this anime. Had some amazing and downright funny soundtracks. Also had some decent fanservice that wasn't censored to hell (ass shots). Wouldn't mind an OVA at least with the new formed group in future adventures.

BEN-TO! 10/10!! I LOVED IT

what better to make an anime about other supermarket brawls over half priced bento?
fanservice was awesome, not censored thank gods
describing food as they ate it made my mouth water.
Character's were awesome, loved the nome de gurres haah hentai"

MERRY CHRISTMAS

That's a logical way to do it...
So Hercules is not really that strong either, he use tactics instead of relying on strength.

BTW, Orthros vs the great boar... who would win ? ^^;
Although I don't think they can just get away with beating the crap out of normal customers without being dragged to the police.

Thought Fate Zero would be my most favorite show this season, didn't expect Ben-to to go from underdog to top wolf.

Now I need a miracle to happen and Ben-to to somehow get a second season ;_;

Need more Kyous and Shaga ;_;

Ume was so damn butt-hurt at the end, she has been successfully kicked out of the main cast :D:D:D:D:D:D


Episode 12 Summary
Not even Ume's weak 5 sec cameo could change the 10 out of 10 this episode gets. It was so amazing, the action we love came in full force. The plan to defeat the twins made so much sense...it basically gave them the message that they weren't wanted, and considered a waste of time to even try fighting them. No wonder they were so upset. I was wondering just what on earth Satou was doing, he was simply burning a sweat to get hungrier:heh: SO happy Satou wound up beating the twins too, without the Ice Witch either. Wonder if this means he's the strongest Wolf now....Great end to a great series. 9 out of 10....yes, even with Ume. :p It was that damn good

Naw this last episode was pure shit. We get to see the Ice Witch get beat up but showing them twins get scratches off screen. Ice Witch does look better in her PJs. I see it pointless showing the Wizard at all in the beginning of the series now. There had better be a season 2.


Ice Witch smile is really beautiful

I do agree that we should have been able to see the twins lose. I'd say that there really should have been a rematch between Orthoros and Ice Witch, since the previous episode was building up to that. Overall, still one of the best this season; very underrated. Putting aside the minor flaws, 10/10.

Epic episode. Satou really manned up and procured the laurel-wreath unagi bento for Sen. WIN. Also, I loled at how Oshiroi appearently got herself a bento while orthros only managed leftovers. Well, they are dethroned now, so they need to fight harder :)

My only gripe is: This episode didn't have enough Jinx :( I miss her But her in a Kimono in the bento box was a nice touch.


On a side note: Why is everyone writing 'Hercules' when they are saying 'Heracles' in the Anime?
I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl

Disappointing ending. The whole bit about running around all night took too long and was badly done. It's a cheap attempt to create tension. I didn't see any point in the rain either. The story was a bit too thin though and I guess it needed some padding. Having said that, the opening was pretty good. Just after she set the alarm clock, I was wondering if he was going to change the time on it.

I thought the artwork was poorly done in this episode compared to the rest of the series. The females all looked blocky and chunky in many scenes. I'm glad we didn't see too much of the cursed kid. If I'd blinked during that one moment, I might have scored this episode higher. And poor Shiraume had no role to play. Sigh. Finally, if Hentai was gonna pamper the Witch, he should have volunteered to hand-feed her.

Overall, good for a 7. It was a fun effort that played with a silly subject.

Its sad that such a good anime have to come to an end, IMO its definitely one of the top anime this season, and i think it has the potential to be one of the best in 2011 as well. The final episode was good, however if they had shown us how the twins got beaten it's be even better. Satou finally get the chance to man up and show off as he wanted, and i liked how nikaido worked together with satou to pound the twins off.

Really good stuff, i'd give it a 10/10 .

p/s: the wizard looked kind of kick ass at the end eating hamburger. I hope i get to see him fighting abit more. He was a main character in the manga version of the prequel of bento.

Great anime, somewhat weak ending. The ending was good but not great. I wish we at least got to see the twins get beaten, well, in a sense we got to see them get humiliated, which is 'beaten' in its own rights...

Blah,
9/10 overall, 8/10 if you add in the ending.

Definitely the surprise anime of the season and one of the best ones :)
Sucks that we didn't see Satou and Ren Nikaidou vs Orthros, that would have made this episode quite a bit better for sure.

Satou and the Ice Witch sharing a laurel-wreath unagi bento was nice to see, shows how good Satou has become from the start :). Shame Ice Witch didn't make a full recovery for the big battle ah well (:.

Hercules all the hype for him being the last boss and once Satou returns, he gets owned completely :L. Though why Orthros felt like having nightmares about not having a ben to fight as they were too strong is a bit :S.

Oshroi somehow got a bento and the twin's didn't :L, shows how stealth can win xD

Certainly a masterpiece in my view for the show concept and being to carry it out so well apart from having one or two filler's -.-.

Comedy, fights and over the topness for a Ben-to and awesome soundtrack = 9-10/10 :)

Please let there be another season two :D, christmas wish xD

It was a good episode but that "last boss" was so weak and it was a shame that they skipped the fight later on... would've loved to see how Satou beats everyone! :P

Anyways, never thought that was the story behind the twins, I was pleasantly surprised..
No Wizard indeed, was hoping he would show himself in this episode... (I know he was at the ending eating a burger.....)

Overall 9/10.... (Didn't like episode 9 and I found it a shame that they skipped the fight after the "big boss" beating in this episode...)

Second season please! :D

It was somewhat of a weak ending with no rematch between the Witch and Orthros. However, the show was very entertaining to watch from the beginning. I would really love to see a second season of this show. The Kyo sisters became my favorite characters when they were introduced. Can't go wrong with two cute twins.

Back in September I asked myself, "How can they make a series with this as the premise?" Well we certainly answered that question, didn't we. What a pleasure to watch--the only thing that would have improved it to my mind would be just a little bit more romance--although Satou you sly dog (err...wolf), you're alone with the Ice Witch nurshing her back to health....

Man, this series was pretty awesome, i really enjoyed it despite having no expectations at all when starting it.
Agreed with rodac on the romance, there could've been some more Yarizui x Sato moments throughout the series but this scene at the end is so good that i don't mind much.
Needs s2 after some time, and make it good.

This anime was much better than I imagined. Yet this parody is definitely not for everyone since at times the humor can be a bit too bland, IMO anyway. Still, this gets a 7 from me too.

Perhaps cause Hercules is the most known name for that hero?

Using either doesn't bother me unless it's a context where you need to differentiate between Greek and Roman myths.

Eels are expensive outside the exotic and luxury foods category, seriously. ^^;


Assuming that most wolves are eating half-priced leftover bento all the time during their high school life (either by choice like the twins or they're living on tight budget like Satou), it's their chance of getting luxurious meal fresh from the oven for half price and not breaking their principle. :D

Actually it's a nice surprise.
Means other than the twins, none of the fighters are ridiculously strong with Jump shounen manga techniques, even Hercules or Monarch (well, lifting and swinging shopping cart one-handed is quite absurd).

Even the argument Hercules used to everyone is to keep the game fun for everybody by having the players with broken stats out of the game early.
