I'll have to pass on this, from what I've heard it's very similar to both IS and Dragonar, two series I dropped. It could be one big recipe for disaster.

Wait, that didn't come out right, did it.

Relatively new, only published last year, so this is probably for promotion. Sounds like a mishmash of several shows in the past few years.
Who am I kidding, I'll obviously watch this just because I can.

Everyone needs their seasonal dose of harem high school action these days, doesn't they ?
*reads synopsis*
Haha is this for real ? Let the hunt for the boy's "D" begin.
Infinite Fafnir female lead doesn't look tsundere like, yet.

I wish harems went outside of school themes because it's stagnating the LN adaptation market pretty badly.

Goodness the synopsis is mindblowingly generic. I'm laughing so hard at how it sounds exactly every other harem synopsis ever. Nothing's really catching me right now so I guess I'll wait till more details are released but seriously lol the possibility that I will be watching this is not too high.

This sounds just awful. I also laughed at the part of the synopsis where it says he accidentally sees one of them naked in which i subsequently said fuck this im out.

It can't get any more cliche than that. Probably even cast will be as mundane as it gets. Maybe first episode will pleasantly surprise me but I'm expecting another trash.

It's good to see that Riko Korie is getting more work. She did an amazing job with Tsuki Tsuki's illustrations.

Hopefully we get some great seiyuu and some awesome comedy. I'll be looking forward to this.

The synopsis is btw forcing people to make the "they want the D" joke.

I consider harems to be disturbingly stupid so I'm definitely passing on this one. Besides, I have too many fantastic shows on my backlog.

Irrespective, this sounds generic as fuck.

Let's see,
* Dragons (A.K.A. magical/alien element) suddenly appears
* Only females can wield said element's power, except for the male MC. power-wielders called "D" (wow, just wow)
* MC finds long lost sister at the school
* MC accidently sees a girl naked with the following remark: "I will kill you" "Can I really believe you?"

Someone bring me a mop, the originality keeps oozing outta this one and I can't keep up!

Looks like another generic battle girl LN which I am not going to watch.

Most of these school setting LNs seem so identical to each other.

I think that's because there's barely anything really worth mentioning about premise and synopsis-wise. I mean honestly, how many times already can we see fantasy LNs about a young boy thrown into a bunch of cute girls with sexually suggestive undertone all over it? It's such a plain and derivative synopsis, and definitely being marketed as yet another "you know what you're getting yourself into". Add to the fact that this LN has been published in just about one year, and it's no wonder that people that are usually into this stuff are being skeptical about it.

Honestly this being a 3/10 seems like kind of a accomplishment if its somehow able to salvage that, this sounds like it'd easilly be a 2/10, not sure about a 1/10, after scratching the bottom with pupa i honestly cant think of anything else being a 1/10
