This is like watching Ouran High School Host Club, except that instead of Haruhi we got Tsugumi from Nisekoi as the MC, lol.

They finally made a season 2 for ouran high school host club!!!

Ha jk but I really can't see Hotaru as a girl whereas I could easily see Haruhi as both a girl or a boy. Love that she's badass but I also hope they explain how the heck she got her super human strength.

And Masamune seems like the perfect Tamaki Suoh substitute until they actually DO make a season 2 for ouran

Not... what I expected. Or wanted. Tentative drop list, unless it gets interesting next episode. Also, homegirl needs to settle down and stop yelling asap. Xanax is your friend, yo.

Okay, if i don't see Tachibana dressed like a girl at least one time, i'm afraid that i gonna drop this. And i almost never drops an anime.
I liked the gun battle and the animation, but BL/Yaoi is forbidden territory

Kinda of a wacky episode and I don't really understand where they wanna' go with this....but I can't say I didn't totally enjoy it.

That being said I do think it's kind of ridiculous how insulted she gets that she's mistaken for a guy when she looks/acts/dresses like a guy.......but w/e I guess I can let that slide for now.

Also they didn't really explain why she never bothered to mention that she wasn't a guy to the host dude? Like I guess they wanted you to piece together that it was a good deal to make up for the damages she caused but either way it just feels kinda lazy imo.

Really ?

The only other anime that I know has trap in this season is Ranpo Kitan: Game of Laplace. If there is more then please can you mention them ? I'm big fan of traps

This was fun :) What drew me to this was the "survival game" part but I have to say that this was not the kind I was hoping for. I'll stick with the show because it seems interesting, Masamune is gorgeous and I think their relationship is going to be fun to watch.

every site says it is a shonen, but i feel like it is way more into the shoujo territory.

are sites biased by the fact that this is an airsoft anime?

I am reading the synopsis I imagined that the plot and the argument of the survival game, compared to other TV series of the past, are more serious and interesting than usual. Narration a bit slow and sometimes even a little obvious implications in, however, I have left a good impression. Drawings and animations on enough, enough characters characterized.

At first I didn't have many expectations for this Anime, but this first episode went way past my expectations it's amazing *_* The Opening was good I really liked it, I didn't really mind the ending but it could be better. The animation for the anime was really good it was like anything out of order or anything like that. Overall it's good. It really does have an Ouran High School Host Club feel to it too ^_^

So, it's like an edgy show without the edgy part. Looks potentially fun.


But seriously, Kobayashi and Hotaru in the same season.

Interesting...... so it's pretty much Ouran x Sabagebu x Kaichou-wa Maid(well..Trap)-Sama x GGO (on the account of Matsuoka being here yet again.... seriously wtf).

Not sure about what to think about it, because the entire situation and character of Hotaru is so contrived that I really don't know what I should think. Seriously, how the hell did some hot-head like her, who actually goes around laying the beatdown on other students, get voted into Student Council as President????

wait wait...I'm confused. Tachibana x Masamune should be normal couple (since they are a girl and a boy, respectively) but why I view them as yaoi couple .-.
But Masamune is so persistent not knowing Tachibana as a girl xD so I kinda doubt his orientation :p
On the other hand, Tachibana x her friend with pink hair (forget her name) should be yuri but I view them as normal couple .-.
Am I the only one who think that? (it can't be helped that Tachibana looks like a boy :p)

TOO MANY TRAP THIS SEASON.

I assumed an idealist and energetic girl like that must be popular in high school, or maybe the other candidate was that pink haired chick.

well, that's pretty much the point though, it's not like you die for real in airsoft...

fun fact: this'd actually be considered "speedsoft" given the fast paced action and the duration of the round, also it's more arcade than milsim.

@black wind
i don't see the point in making her act like a dude though, i'm not much informed in airsoft in japan, is it prohibited to girls? because in america and most likely europe a "club where girls are banned" would be seen in a very bad way.

[center][size=90]Well that was...uh, very different from what I expected.
I thought it would be a supernatural type thing [ definitely got the wrong idea from the words 'survival game' ], and a dark action show [ again, totally screwed up on that one ].
Instead I got something like Ouran High School Host Club meets Free! [ Matsuoka & Tachibana in the same anime again? ]
So I spent half the episode trying to reposition my expectations. It's actually quite the opposite from what I would have thought it to be, and now...I'm not sure if I'm disappointed because of that, or just surprised. I do like the characters, though I feel like they could use some extra dimension. It's refreshing to see a MC that doesn't fit within traditional gender roles!
The fact that it's not really a 'survival game' so much as something with a concept more akin to that of paintball or laser tag really sucked a lot of excitement out of the show for me, though.
Since this is very different from what I thought it would be, at this point I don't know if it's the type of show that I would enjoy [ because I started watching it with other reasons in mind ].
Seriously, I'm still reeling a bit in confusion but once I get past my shattered expectations...I guess it's decent so far. I doubt it'll be a show I'll consider to be 'great', but I think I will enjoy it nonetheless.

Yeah I understand that... But calling it survival, life on the line and with that awesome animation and all it just makes it seem "over the top".

That was decent, the animation was really good, but it's not really hooking me yet.

The main premise of the airsoft battles feels out of place though. The show was giving off this Slice of Life vibe, with similarities to Ouran Host Club, then it just threw gun battles into the mix. Just feels weird.
