Interesting concept but god I hate the character design and somehow all 3 of the voice actors annoy me. Souta sounds strange, idk, too introvert and soft spoken at times, almost like an useless shoujo heroine. Nanami is the typical loli with the annoying voice but Akane takes the cake, she sounds so freaking forced "moe" I can't stand it.
I almost never have problems with voice actors so this is a bit of a surprise for me but well, I do kinda wonder what'll happen next so I'll give it another shot.

Nanami Knight Bladefield is the most badass name ever lol. Also, that was probably the fastest conquer I've ever seen!

Well that was not funny at all. Art style falls straight into Uncanny Valley at times as well. Terrible pacing and barrage of cliches (I'M ALONE AND MUST BE SO NO-ONE GETS HURT). And Akane... someone please kill her already, desu spamming was annoying.
Still, the fact that he can see love flags means the MC has no choice but to take notice of the group of girls that are sure to crave his manhood later on. That's comforting enough.
Will watch one more episode.

P.S.: that flag at the end? Calling it, it's the "harem wars flag"

I do know...but I guess it was a poor use of the term. My bad then.
The art still looked really bad/derp sometimes though.

I don't like the character design, too lolish for my taste.
Anyway, it reminds me NouKome somehow, although this didn't even make laugh.

That was actually really good, unexpectedly. Nanami is actually really cool, and she reminds me of one of my friends. I love the soundtrack, and the flag thing isn't as cheesy as I thought.

I liked this, but I think this anime will turn super ecchi moe school poop xD I hope it doesn't get annoying!

Seems to take an interesting spin to the whole happy/drama harem theme going...by adding death (flags)!

Souta can see his own flags in the mirror? That seems to be the case; looks like it's going to be an interesting development with the giant black death flag we saw at the end.

He wasn't kidding when he said he was popular with girls eh? Makes me wonder what his school life was like prior to transferring in.

Doesn't look promising. Weird that a lot of people mentioned how the other girl was annoying, but nobody thought the blonde was worse? How the hell did she connect a random student whispering to a strangers ear with an accident? To such a degree that she dragged him off and demanded answers. I found that whole ordeal completely...absurd. That's the best word to describe her behavior. All that -desuing bothered me way less.

I actually somewhat enjoyed this haha. Got a laugh outta me! I probably will ship Souta with Nanami because I like her a lot. Akane is super cute though.

I suppose we'll see where this goes.. not sure what to expect so I won't expect much though. 7/10

The episode was ok I guess, Souta can see flags on top of heads and this helps him know what kind of relationship people want from him.

Never had that big expectations in this series before I pick it up. I'm glad that it wasn't that bad from what I am expecting.

So every episode = new girl for his harem?

I thought this would be fun, but it seems there will be a lot of dark stuff in this series. Will keep watching a bit.

Akane was annoying, and she's a bit selfish and arrogant if she thinks she can achieve redemption sort of by feeling sorry about the rest of humanity.

Anyway it seems this guy is gonna build an harem sort of by manipulating the flags properly.

6.5/10 for this ep.
Nice ED.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

I was in the mood for a light hearted harem with a Tsundere lead.

Damn, that boy is fast in business xD
Though, cute blonde tsundere loli always win, so I guess she have no chance.

The concept is weird and I wonder how they will manage that it don't get repetitive. Also, that may be a dumb question but is it suppose to parody the common anime death flag and others? If so, it's kinda clever :P

So many girls in the ED... That guy will end up with syphilis.

At the end, the MC had a big death flag on his head right?

I dunno. The pacing was all over the place. Things definitely went by too fast in the beginning. I do like the characters though and the whole idea surrounding this show is certainly unique. Kiss at the end was awesome too.

Let's see where it goes from here.

The voice acting was very poor by Seeiyu standards (that laugh?!!) and the story seemed a bit rushed. But there's some comedic potential so I'll give it a bit more time.

I kept on expecting a god figure to show up and say: ERABE!

Read the manga before and didn't like it, thought that the anime might change my mind, but no. I liked some parts, but didn't like most of it, especially the quick growing relationship, which people will know why in the next episode.

Anyway, dropped.
