Huh? What was that ending? If he really is back in the real world, why did Akane say he saved her again? And why were the other girls at the dorm again? Did Sacrament and Demon return their memories?

It left me with some questions... Atleast it ended okay xD

ok ending for an ok anime
the part where he saves her at the end was adorable though

I rewatched the last 3 episodes. The virtual world was pretty much made from real world data, so it included events that did happen in the real world (the boat incident happened in the real world, it was just carried into the virtual one too, so those 2 little girls also did exist in the real world). So that said, he technicaly has seen Akane in the real world before (why she was fibbing not knowing him at first I have no idea), just that everything he experianced with her after he was linked in the virtual world was forgotten (they could have made a promise in the real world before his incident, since he did know them).

Welllll..... That was weird.

So, in the end, he's still trapped in that informatic world, right? I mean, we see those two programs they were talking about and also the fact that everyone suddenly remembered.

I'm so confuse... I think I'll just shut my brain off, to much things that seem incoherent in that anime x)

If they dropped the supernatural world saving crap and sticked with a normal rom-com style, I would've enjoyed show this much much more!

Too bad, the style and characters were all great. Why did it have to go too deep?

That was actually quite good. I mean, really!

This is a harem anime, and it actually had a story and depth. It's unbelievable.

SOOOOO BULLSHIT these last 2 episodes made me want to die, the episode 12 fighting was cool but this shit was way too rushed, lots of things I could complain about but screw that. Since I enjoyed 9/13 episodes I'll give it a 6 out of sympathy for the slaughtered ending

At the first half when it mentioned that a magician, clergy, NINJA, SAMURAI ... did try to save Bladefield I expected the ending would be wack. SAMURAI and NINJA in Medieval Europe? LOL
But I didn't expect the ending would be that horrible! I even spend half an hour trying to find out what word that would describe how horrible the ending is. No luck, no words would describe how wack the ending is.

BTW the ship scene in the last episodes happened in the real world, so Souta met the girls (and a boy) before the story began. Like what one of the programs mentioned, she'll remove her memory. Maybe that's why Souta reminded Akane about her promise.(whatever it is) The question is how did the programs existed in the real word? I believe even both Toka Takei and Ayumu Watanabe have no idea how.

Nanami even proclaimed overuse of clches and deux ex machinas lol...and said at least we get a happy end? This isn't that happy imo, nice that we got an Akane end, but Nanami didn't get shit lol, and the idol girl was basically jus a deus ex machina fill in with no other purpose than a piece of the folk tale backstory -.- So much stuff is unexplained geh T.T Actually the whole cast itself are jus deus ex machinas, including the plot...

Also, Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushi title ripoff ending?!!!!! Hells no take that back lol, hells no you can't jus randomly put "the world is so beautiful" in this random-ass harem lol.

Since I started watching jus for Samurai-san (Mei), I finished it rather than dropping, but still disappointing as I expected starting from the 2nd episode. One min you want the girls to be waifu material, next moment you regret thinking that lol ;(

In the end, even the fan-service failed my expectations. 5/10.

It would've been good if I can see all of the characters at the end. It was just Akane and Souta and then the rest of the girls. Not sure if that's a happy ending or not.

Great harem, though the other, "Matrix" like story I felt was not executed properly. There were confusions here and there. Lots of questions during some scenes at some episodes.

It's not entirely bad though for me. The harem with comedy was the saving grace for me on this one.

Well the ending escalated quickly... The beginning was "okay" as far as harems go why not just keep it like that instead of doing all those crazy plot twists near the end.. They also went and made it super hard the distinguish between the worlds near the end..

Does someone want to explain the ending to me? Did the Premium Ambriel incident occur in a virtual world, or the real world? Why is everyone still alive in the real world? Weren't they only allowed to live on in "oblivion", that is, the virtual worlds..?

I don't even know what I'm saying...

REALLY GREAT EPISODE .

"The world is beautiful." Should be the "Truth of all things" from the other 'networks' that also have been led by this incredible anime . I do feel at ease now . It seems the whole production is like the subjects in schools . You'll be relaxed in the beginning but when it diverts to something , It gets just a bit of annoyance ~ . Well , I'm not that great at comparison though . But Two things are for sure . The Shifting didn't brought 'Quality-kind-of-stuff' and The Characters are really CUTE ~ . I praise them for their efforts . Though being longer could be very great .. Because no --obvious-- harem ending .. OTP anyway .

This show saved Harem anime for me!!! I was watching a lot of high rated ”comedy/harem” series ( starting from 7.50+ ), but every anime felt like shit tier (4/10) ... and yeah, this show had pretty useless drama for a bit...but the comedy...THE MTFKN COMEDY...oh boy, that was what I call entertainment...pretty character designs...likeable Tsundere ( 3rd Tsundere I ever liked [ 1st. Taiga from Toradora, 2nd. Tohsaka from Fate/stay night ]...I swear, Im not a masochist...overall = 8/10, idk I saw the score - it was 6,58 or so, but it had nice cover and interesting summary...why not?... I hope to find more pearls like this...I want more...oh..wait a sec...it has an OVA!!! Yeeehaaa...time to watch it also...bye bye suckas

Thought I've seen this anime before, turns out I've dropped the manga a while ago, and for the same reason I didn't like the anime - the pace. Not the anime pace, the story's pacing, it's the same in the manga, for at least the first 3 chapters. New girls being introduced in every new episode. The show suddenly wanted to include some fantasy/magic, and sci-fi.. honestly it felt more like a bad parody than anything. This show is a prime example of how to make your audience not invested in a series.

From what I understand: god sisters are the splited-off parts of the rogue AI that turned into Angelus Gemini. Angelus could control electronics in the real world, much like most other rogue AI we see in science fictions. In the end though, all 3 of them are programs. Which means they can only 'influence' the real world, not exist in it. so while there was a scene of souta waking up in reality, the ending must've been in the virtual world since

1. 2 little gods are there, they're only programs that exist in the VR.
2. akane remembers the events with souta. she said "again" implying she remember what happened in the simulation. This can't happen in the real world because everything that happened in the series was all in the simulation and only 3 people were actually in it, souta, no.0, nanami (who no.0 said lost her memory of diving in) so noone other than souta & kagura should have any memory of it

Unless we assume that the little gods gave the real girls the memory of what happened to their alternate selves in the VR through some method. I've seen plots where the AI could influence human's mind through electrical signals the moment that person connect to any electronic devices with an internet.


First, I must say that after I marathoned 8 eps, I absolutely loved every aspect of it. Gave it a solid 9 and was seriously considering giving it a 10 if they could keep up the quality and give a satisfying ending.

unfortunately that didn't happen. it stop being a comical, parody, slice of life show and suddenly tried to take itself seriously adding in drama, dark, depressing vibes. The last couple of episodes were bad and the final episode were just terrible.

It was very rushed, a lot of things weren't explained at all, it left the viewers too confused. The inception end didn't help. It really rubbed me the wrong way.

Now I understand why people gave the anime such a low score,

without the last arc, this series could easily be in the high 7 on avg score.

they started the VR crap, threw the tone of the entire anime down the toilet

Considering how the LN is/was ongoing, the shift in quality makes sense. I assume the point that it started getting shit was also where the anime started giving its own "twist".

I really hope the real ending will keep up the quality it had throughout the season.

What a confusing ending... I have so many questions, haha! Why was there 3 Nanami's? why was he her sister to begin with? how did Akani regain her memory of Souta at the end? why couldn't Souta see Nanami's flag? Why could Souta see the flag of an alternate Nanami? Why were they fighting in a virtual world? Why was Nanami able to remember Souta unlike the rest?

It was a decent harem comedy anime, until the end when the writing just turned to "What?"...

Overall not bad characters or production value, but such a sudden and artificial twist of things is just bad writing...

I only started watching this cause I found the op song catchy...The show itself is just bad. I liked some characters, but they got no development at all. Not to mention that the storyline is confusing as hell and there's too much harem. I mean, 10+ girls for one guy? (And no, I refuse to count Megumu as a guy xD) I think if it had a smaller cast and properly executed storyline, it would have been so much better. I do somehow find South X Akane adorable though <3

Ok in all honesty i have no idea what the fuck i just finished watching. You think its a simple harem romcom based around an interesting premise in the beginning but it quickly switches to a Matrix type beat halfway through. Not the worst or best show ever but certainly something like I’ve never watched before Nocap
