That kiss! *.*
Love it!
Could be next one, if Akari and rest don't show up!

I can't believe Gillette died just like this... ;(

I have theory that Viivi is real daughter of Gaz... xD

Really like this series!
Can't wait to see next season!

Finally Akari came back to her senses! So she was conscious but just being manipulated/controlled huh?
As expected Fredrica will not die that easily! So she has "double structure" huh? She's very cute on her smaller (looks like chibi?) version!
I wish Ricardo had been ripped by Toru piece by piece not death by drowning!
That kiss between Chaika and Toru! And they tried to do it again but Akari arrives though.
Vivi looks like she turned into a "Chaika" after knowing that Gillette was dead? But I think Gillette wasn't dead.
Fredrica asked Toru to be a Dragoon Cavalier? Why not? He can be healed anytime.


Maybe some of us already knew that this Anime will have a Second Season last month... So it wasn't surprising anymore. But I'll still watch S2 at Fall Season.

I'll rate this 7/10 score because it wasn't finish at all.

Nice battle of those fortresses.
After seeing Fredricas dead body I was a bit worried, didn't expect her giving "birth" of herself^^
This Guy guy remains mysterious...
That semi-kiss, good thing Akari didn't see it, Toru wouldn't have survived that^^
I don't think Gillette is dead. THAT would be a bit underwhelming.

Good that they announced the second season, even pretty early ( a few weeks ago?), so I won't have to worry about that part. This show was quite solid and I'm excited for the continuation!

No visuals of actual death, not dead is my experience from most anime. I'm assuming Gillette will return in some shape or form next season. If Vivi can turn into a Chaika, Gillette can be alive.

Akari always shows up when Tory and Chaika are about to get lovey dovey.

I enjoyed this series. It was a good surprise after I expected nothing from it.

Akari returned back to her own sense.

That kiss between Chaika and Toru was nice.

I don't think Gillette is dead, there's a chance that he may be alive.

And I think Gillette is dead, we can't compare him to the immortal Fredrica.


dude, she's another chaika now, just accept it. And seriously, we all know that gillete isn't dead, not because he's a dragon with healing powers but because he has a plot armor that'll keep him around for some time. In anime the MIA status means only being temporarily gone.

Why couldn't there have been development between Akari and Toru? I know it was obvious from many episodes ago how it was gonna be with him and Chaika, but goddammit lol.

Decent finale. Glad Fredrica's death was just some troll tactic, and I know for sure that Gilette is not out of the game. Those 2 Guys behind him doe

And I can't believe that Vivi was a Chaika...what can this mean?!?!

11/10 epic season finale! I LOVED IT. This was the most fun anime of the season. I was wondering how Fredrica was going to survive, but I would have never guessed she could do something like that. Also she was so adorable when she went on all fours and transformed into the dragoon to get her revenge. Tooru massacred that creepy white monster nicely too. Akari's Wizaado-Head-Smasher could have been more graphic, maybe we'll get a blood&brains splatter on the BD ;)

I just miss one thing: Tooru, Y U NO tell Chaika there are other things worth living for, other than gathering remains?

Finale was good, but didn't exceed my expectations, it felt rushed, and the fight between Ricardo and Toru felt too short.

Although I laughed when Fredrica came out on a chibi version of herself XD, glad that she is still alive. Blue Chiaka/Layla and Ricardo were pretty weak in the finale and I expect them to be the final boss or something like that. Wow IDK if Gillette survived but that blast felt like it obliterated everything.

WTH Vivi screaming and her hair turned into white, is she another Chiaka or something? The emperor remains is still ongoing and the journey still continues. Can't wait to see the 2nd season of this. 8/10

That kiss was pretty good to see, i thought it would not happen, that akari would stop it, as she did one the second one xD.

I don't believe that Gillette died, it didn't show his body so something must have happened, I dunno ...

lol at mini Frederica.

Glad that the second season is close enough, i have fun watching it and i hope the next season to be even better.

Are you guys blind, pause on Gillette moment before laser strikes him. There are two copys of Guy there so for sure he survived.
I didnt expect Vivi to turn into chaika, that was strange. Toru will get op when he get dragon powers.
Its looking to be nice new season and pretty solid one for sure

Dat kiss! And there would have been more if it wasn't for the meddling sister ahnd her pet dragoon!
Gilette is dead? No effing way, I guess he'll be back in S2
Vivi has been another chaika all the time? SHOCKING TRUTH!

Very happy to see Fredrica alive she is a beast
The most shock thing about this episode was Vivi possible being a chaika.
If i remember correctly in that ep. where toru was in that mist and got ntr. Maybe that's just a coincidence

So Viivi is also Chaika.

Hope to see more red Chaika in season 2, also hope Toru makes that contract. I want to know more about Guy since just by him showing up it distracted Layla.

And lol now that I actually take a minute to look at Viivi she definitely has the eye color and Chaika face going on for her.

Best comment for this episode!!!

You forgot to add:
Tooru. Dragon Chevalier. Surprising!
Chaika. October. Be back!


Anyway, this show kept on being fairly interesting, so a 7/10 is a good award for its results. Now waiting for the second season in October.

Glilette is dead huh.. (Doubt it though.)
Vivi, transformed into a Chaika? The hell? Certainly couldn't have seen that coming.
The shock of Gillette's death probably caused it
Lol Frederica's chibi form XD
Didn't expect that.
Oh and Tooru has a chance to be come a dragoon cavalier. Nice :)

I lost it when I saw what Frederica pull out. I mean it was like a gory scene from "Alien", her dead body's stomach swelled up, then exploded and... a chibi Fred appeared. I did not expected that and I burst out laughing.

Overall I really like it. The LN readers said it was kind of rushed compared to the original work but I didn't really felt that (gonna read to check). 8/10
I've only seen 3 Sasaki Ichirou's works (including this) and I absolutely love what he does. I enjoyed it more than NGNL to be honest.

My only complaint is that Bones gave more money for Captain Earth (and maybe Soul Eater Not. Can't tell, not watching it). I hope the 2nd season's animation/art will improve.

Vivi's hair turned white, her eyes turned from blue to violet, and her eyebrows got bigger. She's definitely turned into a Chaika. Maybe everyone will become Chaika.

I've always had suspicions of Guy being the main villian, what I've seen now just increases those suspicions. My running theory is that Guy is the spirit of Emperor Gaz, who will be restored upon gathering of his remains.

Very satisfied with this series. I got the adventure I wanted, and the fights were great to boot! Season 2 can't come soon enough for me! For me, not every episode has to be action packed, I love learning small things about characters, what they aspire for, what is their favorite food etc etc. Overall this was the show I didn't expect to perform, that performed VERY well in my books.

Any Dark Souls players here?



As a child, I was told that society is a melting pot of talents; knowledge and experience combined to form important alloys that will contribute to mankind. When I got to highschool, however, I thought that it's more like a river in which the water represents our peers while we ourselves are the stones in the river. Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all.

well anyway, Vivi hair turns white? Is she another Chaika too... whoa this might be a plot twist haha.

And why did that blue chaika surprise at the sight of the mysterious guy?

cant wait for the next season...
