| Just first episode............ AND I LOVE IT :D |
| This anime is definitely not for me. I had a feeling this is was going to be on my drop list. 3/10 |
 |
| Seems pretty bad and generic. |
| Feels pretty rushed but I think this will be an enjoyable show. |
| Oh god who are you people? |
| Characters so far are looking interesting. This episode was a lot of fun to watch without knowing what to expect. Subs were mediocre, so I was glad I could understand enough of the japanese to properly understand. Looking good going forward and I'm interested to see how it turns out. |

| Opening theme and beginning animation The opening song made my ears bleed... Start of the episode was lame. Some animations for the opening were awkward as in it didn't really flow well. They were nicely animated tho. The MC walking with the flames burning him up was weirdly animated. The way he staggered. Animations Due to the unique weapons involved, some of the movements were awkward, like for Julies'. Julie's "transformation" scene end pose has awkwardly positioned legs and what is with all the spinning? And where did all the chairs go? Were they like obliterated into atoms? Barely any fragments in the background of the battle royal considering the amount of them in the beginning. Characters One side of their face is soemtimes s shaped. Looks weird. Julie Idk why everyone is blushing thinking she is bishe. Guess they couldn't animate her awesomeness properly. NO seriously, for a heroine she does not look cute at all in my opinion. It's her pupils and bangs, too big in some scenes.. Her eyes stare into ur soul~. And they keep doing close-ups on her goddam bells on her pigtail in the beginning. At least three times! This is not ore no twin-tail so stop. Her actions are cute tho. Ya~ desu~ Jiiiiiii~ Miyabi Lol they animated her crouching in the corner holding her head in teh battle royal. How did she pass like that? O_O Sensei Nicely done. Very fun. Ending theme Ok song. Her opening her arms with teh sakura pedals flying around with that face looks weird. Hope it doesn't end up like Mahou sensou = shiet |
| Seems a little bit rushed but overall great! |
| mods are cucks |
| I enjoyed this episode. Julie is definitely an interesting girl. Can't wait for the next one. |
 |
| Ok, I really liked this, it seems like it will be a good watch. |
| It's not bad. It ain't "Home Invaders" or "Loli Basketball" level of bad. And I'm hoping that this is better than the painful-to-watch Magical Warfare and Trinity Seven anime. Tooru's decent enough; defeating the swordwaving (but actually nice) swordgirl and actually having power. I hope some guy wipes the smug smirk off "Chuunibyou Desuwa-h" soon. And dropping the show because [Nanoha's voicing] Black Rabbit's over-caffeinated cousin feels kinda wrong. I'd rather have her as a comic relief than the shounens. |
 |
| The besty thing about this show right now is that julie speaks my Language. Swedish. First time I see it in anime. Here surname is a swedish name of a smal town. But her first name is not swedish :P |

| Seems pretty generic so far.. Hopefully it picks up later. |
 |
| Generic, but interesting to watch. |
| I've watched the 1st ep outta the blue & I liked it. The art is so beautiful. |
 |
| I loved it!!! I was really sad in the beginning though because Imari was adorable and I really wanted her to get in...I hope that this wasn't the last of her even though it seemed that way. The whole Julie staring at Tooru scene was hilarious, even after the bunny maid teacher came in she didn't even care LOL. The opening is absolutely amazing, and I can't wait for the next episode. And I knew I recognized the main characters voice, cause I was sitting there like "What is Kirito/Lubbock doing there" and then I looked it up and was like YESSS. |
| Well that was kinda cute I guess, the second half anyway. I felt kinda bad for that Imari girl or whatever her name was. |
| A school where many things are free and people gathering for a reason. It was kind of fun with already seeing a little of each person's powers. Getting a roommate already, the partner thing might go a long way! |
 |
| I guess, it was okay, but nothing more. Characters are meh and there doesn't seem to be too much of a story going on, i hope it gets better. *stare* |

| Jesus can walk on water. Cucumbers are 96% water. I can walk on cucumbers. I'm 96% Jesus. |
| Who let Shinonono Tabane be their teacher??? Aside from that, it seems like your usual harem with "Kirito" as MC yet again. |
| All i can say is "Meh" Not bad enough to drop,but score wont be reach higher 5 |
| ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ http://i.imgur.com/hB6t8My.jpg Hard to say much as of yet, but I'm glad we have a delicious main heroine for once at least, been a while |
  |
| First new show of the season/year for me! It was an okay first episode. It wasn't ultra exciting but I wasn't bored either. I'm interested to see how this show progress. Julie is cute! Lol at the teacher. |
PoeticJustice said: nigga i am black, do you think my ass would fit in? "Oh look it is negro kun." Hell no. |
| I guess that first part would be from later in the series or something like that hmmm... Considering the title I expect this series will be about pairs of two that will fight using supernatural powers. Thor eh... LOL, a loli is the academy president XD. Yeah... that was quite entrance exam if do say so myself... LOL, their homeroom teacher is a maid with bunny ears XD. Haha, my guess about their system was right and Thor is going to share the room with Julie XD. Lucky bastard... seeing a silver haired loli only wearing a shirt... Overall it was a nice first episode and I'm rather interested to see what happens next. |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| all around generic animation during the fight wasn't that good either op and ed were good not really good so far but who knows |
| Seems completely generic, not surprised though. Thankfully I kept my expectations low.. Loli Academy President, Bunny cutsy teacher.. ~_~ Also the childhood memory seems to be strong with this one.. not to mention the mysterious white/silver haired loli. Is this the best 8bit is capable of doing? At least the MC isn't dense, so that's good. This show will probably end up being 5/10 or lower, unless a miracle happens and the show will actually do something different from the rest. That, or if the execution of the show will be good enough, which I doubt it will be. |
 Best girl all ready :3 |
 |
| There seriously must be a downloadable template for these kind of shows for the creators to insert new characters and ship off their newly packaged horse shit every season. |
| attention ppl of MAL if u dont like harem.....stop watching harem |
Moodie said: attention ppl of MAL if u dont like harem.....stop watching harem That's exactly what I do, but not harems, instead shitty animes,. |
| I don't mind action-harem light novel trash (hence the avatar), but this one is definitely on the uninspired side. You know, the kind that makes you more cynical about anime each season... Dropped. |
JivingLotusJan 6, 2015 1:19 PM
| Ya..no........ I'd rather watch Sora no Method. |
 |
| Omg, drawings sucks, backgrounds sucks, plot sucks (eggghhh plot?) , 3dcgi is awful. Humour is pathetic, characrers are generic (so much generic(so much generic(so much generic))) I didn't watch anything that shitty since ngnl. And this rating? ppl are you serious?! So many good shows has rating <7 (yeah it is just mal I know) and shit like this ont 7,5?! ROTFL. Dropped. AND NO I DIDNT DROP IT BECAUSE OF HAREM. IT JUST SUCKS VERY BAD. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
Moodie said: attention ppl of MAL if u dont like harem.....stop watching harem This. The tone of the anime was ultra-clear right from the synopsis and PV ... never understood who looks series like this and then says "it's the usual harem, so bad ecc." , It was already clear, without seeing it, the type of anime to which it belongs... don't watch it and gains 20 minutes of life ... This is why I almost never drop a series ... because I don't watch an anime that I already know that I'll drop ... I like it and I knew the tone that it would have ... and I'll see it definitely to the end (including read LN). That said, everyone does what he/she wants ! :) |
Ramiel00Jan 6, 2015 2:30 PM
| What do you think about the planetarium? That beautiful twinkling of eternity that will never fade, no matter when.... |
| Kirito defeated Asuna(Imari). Had they been a duo OMG <3 But Julie is ADORABLE <333333333333 He should have gotten Freiya/Thor's hammer back from ALO that would have been awesome!!!! But a shield is nice too |
AnimeFan500Jan 6, 2015 1:55 PM
| His shield (blaze) is smaller then I expected.. Not too bad, didn't particularly like what I read of the novel so won't expect much |
| It is not a good sign when the OP recycles a good number scenes from the first episode. Animation quality is awful and augmented by Funimation always having terrible video quality (2015 right?). So maybe it is actually a little better than presented. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't good. Classroom scene was kinda funny. So far, the girls don't seem appealing (both personality and looks) and in a harem that is a must. To comment on people saying don't watch it if you don't like harem. That is true. There are those that just watch everything even though it is a genre that they don't like..for whatever reason. So they complain about it. I agree that's about as stupid as it gets. That said, I personally like harem. But, this will not be a good harem. I'd be surprised if that opinion changes. But people will eat this shit up I'm sure. @ rsc-pl Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance - 7.2 Trinity Seven - 7.5 Date A Live II - 7.56 (really now...really) Seikoku no Dragonar - 6.79 Mahou Sensou - 6.21 (fking really?) Those are the only recents off the top of my head that parallel this show. Like I said. People (tweens) eat shit up. Trinity Seven was decent. |
IZEROIIJan 6, 2015 2:38 PM
| I enjoyed the first episode. The fighting scene wasn't very flashy, but that's fine. You can't expect flashy every time from amateurs. |
LunyRed said: Too bad Imari didn't pass I was expecting a more better animation design, but it's okay I guess. Not bad, but not too great. Expecting a lot of no blood fighting. Doesn't look like blood would be animated anyway since they fight with souls and not bodies. Pretty much a casual harem, ecchi, action show tbh |
  |
| Would have been more interesting if the entrance exams ended up with people decapitating their partner or something. An entire season of coping with the trauma of taking a young life. Or not. |
| I'm not getting enough vegetables. I'm just not getting enough vegetables. |

Those are the only recents off the top of my head that parallel this show. Like I said. People eat shit up. On the animation, I'd personally put it down to it being 8bit. For some reason, every 8bit shows I saw after season one of Infinite Stratos just doesn't seem to look as pretty. At least I finally got to see this... two days after its initial airing. >_> I already dislike the teacher's voice. I'll be damned if we get another Tabane. There are more guys than IS, but they're still VASTLY outnumbered by female students. At least from what I saw. Oh, but at least the heroine seems to be better than Claire Rouge. I don't think I could stand another irritable loli tsundere heroine. e.e I'm also in the camp that hopes for more Imari. Still getting irritated by Matsuoka being in goddamn everything now, though. :| 3/5 |
| this is the most generic anime there will be this season.. prob giving it 1 or 2 more episodes and this goes on my dropped list. oh and 8bit is garbage. |
 |
| True on 8bit. Yama no Susume is really their best product recently. |
| This was too rushed, even if the pace was slower it still wouldn't be good. I can't really see how they could have made the first episode above average. Unless this has something special, it won't be that great. |
| Uhmm.. well it's not that bad. |
 |

| This isn't even a good harem |
