So far, a good episode.
Not so like the manga but hey ... It's "normal".
Have to wait for other episodes.

The only good thing about this is Himari, because of that straightforward character and Horo's voice. I can't get enough of that voice.

But everything else was so generic it hurt. The rest of the characters are not worth mentioning so far. I will give it another episode, but at this point it's nothing I can see myself watching until the end.

Despite alot of the early hate this got, I can see me watching this to a conclusion. Better than some of the stuff Ive seen and its always fun to have one or two fanservice anime on the go.

After all its only gonna be 12 episodes =P

It was pretty good. There could of been wayyyy more fanservice, but I'm glad they chose not to put so much in. Plus, fanservice shows once in awhile is alright. As long as it doesn't become the purpose of the show rather than the comedy or story.

There's very few Ecchi-Manga out there I like and most of them fail as Anime-adaptions so I expected to be disappointed but I have to say this was not half bad. Maybe that To-Love-ru OVA episode 3 from way back is still clouding my judgement (because I feel like this episode had not much fanservice at all) but my first impression is positive... yet this genre can stab you in the back very quickly, so I'll be careful with my judgement for now...

Amakawa Yuuto must be the most lucky and unfortunate person so far. Someone with a cursed destiny against the Ayakashi/allergic to cat and a very sexy/sensual women
around him that to one he is allergic. Rinko looks a little like Yuka from 11eyes unfortunately only the panties
and her childhood connection to Yuuto is...personality wise and breast wise.....not at all. Fear not all who know me(talking about incidents of 11eyes) I am awaiting more my favorite this time since it will be the girl with dark moon on her forehead. Breast wise I find Noihara Himari's too forced and over done but her sensual lust is captivating. Rinko is also attractive despite her breasts...her body is as firm as Kuroko's might be. Fight wise...the battle between spider man possessing Taizo and Himari was great.=> Monsters look interesting in their own perspective=>
, panties/breasts and naked scenes (few of them) are ok . Mizuchi looks to be the next loli alike that will be interesting in the next episode=>
. Poor Rinko being beaten by that Himari.....at least I know Himari excels at speed, sword speed, martial arts and jumping. Panties shot if Himari look delicious=>

A little GIF of how lucky/unlucky is Yuuto:

I can't see any wrong with voice actor of anyone in this series yet, quite like the tsundere but still got a feel of this anime is not bad what your guys is thinking.
People that are only looking for a cool action anime, don't know the tasted.
Maybe I'm just being friendly but for me it is a few anime I believe is no good.

We all have standards.
Blackbird said:
I found Nyan Koi pretty funny and one character I hated there is that tsundere girl, what her name again.
I'm quite really like the twins girl in there, this isn't about Nyan Koi it is about Omamori Himari.
This is more to me fan service to be like Kampfer/Some elements from Nyan Koi and a final mixture of myths.
Blackbird said:
It is hard to come up with something new and special since there is many good anime that are pretty similiar to all animes.
they really have to come of with something different from other anime.
I want more Mahjong, Soccer, Tennis, iGO etcs.

There is always something as a element from other animes and I only saw few....imagine those with the 500 seen lists.
Blackbird said:
I just being hilarious now.
Let's get started then. :D
Of course, anime should not be "Why so serious" instead emotions might be the only ones for that.

Catgirl, guy alregic to catgirl, overly jealous annoying female protagonist, wimpy male protagonist, huge boobs,echhi, pantie shots, male protagonist stares out windows, lost memories and being chased by demons. You can't get much more general than that. It was a so-so episode
Maybe general but art is unique....style at least....ok maybe a little similar to Kampfer but with other elements makes it unique I would think so.
BitchMaster said:
Post your flaming here (or praise?), according to how your psy works anyway....

There is no flaming but that I wished that Himari was more of a Goddess than a demon....demons=weak.
BitchMaster said:
First ep is average but it follows the mange quite close enough, the only complaint I got is about the damn character design that they decided to go with...but guess I can get used to it after drugging myself with geranium grown in my neighbor's bed...

Drinking something to watch something to distort is escaping from reality but in your case nice sarcasm there.
BitchMaster said:
Anyway, average show with some nice comedy here and there and moderate amount of fanservice that doesn't make you go bang your head with a Zweihander. Plot? Forget it, I bet til the end, they gonna go with a cliffhanger after beating the shit out of some female crotch lookalike monster and having the girls bury the dude in their bust anyway...

Plot? Easy harem is all.

Didn't really like what I saw. Seemed generic. The fight scene was pretty good though.
Exactly why the Himari is worth seeing for....fights!
ChaosLegion said:
I agree it's generic,but Himari is realy hot and provides good fanservicee so i'll try to ignore Rinko's annoying existence and watch it till the end...8/10 so far.
Hope you can since you did pretty well friend in 11eyes for Yuka.
kage-bunshin said:
loved that they kept close to plot- boy meets mysterious girl; childhood friend gets pissed off; turns out mysterious girl is there to protect him; mysterious girl sneaks into his bed; childhood friend finds them in the bed together= roflmao
Yeah her face is also a rofl especially with the pencil breaking.
Wasabi said:
Rinko the typical annoying childhood friend. Clearly Himari is superior.
Clearly you are far off! The girl with the black crescent moon is superior in looks and breasts Himari will get crushed by her magic muhahaha!
Laevantein said:
It was OK..just some ecchi show so far..not expecting much story or plot at this point..not much laugh from me..Himari is hot..Rinko is annoying..Yuuto is another lucky bastard who get protected by girl..so far this is my opinion..
Yuuto? One girl? I think the harem will be bigger than that! Himari is hot but as a demon I would not touch her.....I have allergies to something that comes from hell. Yuto makes me of think Yuto from Haruka no Himitsu.
Julio-sama said:
The character design is what pisses me off the most! Compared to the manga, they were horrible. Hell! You don't even need to compare it to the manga to know it's bad.
Who cares about the manga just a book, this is animated.

The only good thing about this is Ami Koshimizu is in it, everything else screams generic fanservice show

And whats with the huge boob obsession that japanese have? Is it because japanese women are lacking so they feel the need to do this stuff? Lol its not attractive, theres such a thing as TOO BIG, specially when all character have them

1/10


oh the irony of using a generic argument to bash something you think is generic

first why were you watching this in the first place since you clearly dont like eechi go back to naruto

man what is wrong with you people do you make a hobby out of complaining? i mean i can understand not liking all the panty shots but jeus Christ you should have known what you were geting into, all this hate against eechi has got to stop its just retarded

and for the record nothing is original anymore so this is just as generic as any other anime out there


I second that... But about no anime not being original... That isn't quite true. We get some really nice shows once in a while with decent non-generic plot... Gurren lagann? Death Note? Code Geass? And some other shows that were pretty amazing and epic... Those are truly rare ones. We probably won't see another excellent anime in a pretty long ass time... Unless there's one out now. If so please tell me~

-Pace is awesome
-They threw stupid uncalled fanservice everywhere
-Shizuku :3 (Fuck the semi-invisible dress tough, uncalled fanservice again ._. )
-12 episode = really fastforward so they'll cut a lot
-Yuuto's seiyu can go back to school and take another job
-Himari passed from a e-cup to a f-cup = bad.

I can understand how it smell generic since the start is pretty much generic, the interesting stuff come latter, which maybe won't even come in this anime.

3/5 from me, the manga was way better in this case.

Man... maybe my memory is just bad since I haven't read the manga in soo long but... I don't remember it being a solely ecchi manga? I remember story? Ahh I guess not? I also imagined the main girls voice to be the same VA as saber. Always imagined a low voice that changed tones a little as she talked... (but I guess that's just an illusion made by the scanalators)... haha just one of those rare characters where you can actually hear her voice in your mind. I'm also not liking Himari's art either... she was drawn so perfectly in the manga... in fact she is one of my favorite in terms of art... lol I know it's probably translators/scanalators preferences but I have already grown to having Himari subbed w/ a middle english accent (I need to learn japanese...), feels kind of weird... haha but that's my fault of course... Haha what am I doing comparing manga to anime... manga is manga and anime is anime... but manga becomes anime because manga is popular. It was... kind of a funny I guess... I have a feeling it's going to be like Sora No otoshimono... there going to throw away seriousness the story originally had and keep/add the ecchi.... and put a lot of seriousness at the end and make a horrible ending that doesn't have the same feeling as the rest of the episodes. I didn't feel like Himari had much of a personality in this episode either? I remember her being a cold aggressive character? Maybe I should let the season progress a little more before making such accusations. Well fail or succeed I'm going to stick by this anime the whole season cause I liked the manga :D.

If Zac Bertschy (from Anime News Network) and I ever become mortal enemies, I have just found my way of defeating him. Strap him to a chair, hold his eyes open and make him watch this show nonstop. Seriously, this would be his Kryptonite.

I mean, after getting about two-thirds of the way through this thing I LITERALLY thought, "Wow, pretty much every generic anime trope in existence has been in this thing except for a loli character in pantsu."

AND THEN SHE APPEARED.

(I may watch this thing for the lulz, but if the first episode's any indication, this might wind up being the worst thing I've ever tried to sit through.)

Basically, there was nothing in this episode that I considered to be appealing. I can pretty much tell that it's going to become a mess of a harem show with some fights thrown in. Wonderful. Would love to be proven wrong, though.

Agreed!

I read through these comments and there are so many negative ones. @_@
I thought the first episode was good. ^_^
I didn't have a problem with the character design at all.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I read a little about a show before I start watching. If any of you did that you should have know it would be ecchi, so don't act surprised.
Also, in comparison there are many other shows out there that are much more ecchi and plotless than this one.
The story might not be too original, but I still like it. I've seen and liked similar things in the past, so why shouldn't I like them now? Some stories are enjoyable even when redone.

Iam following the manga so, I am already familiar with the story.
I mostly enjoyed it as I did the manga. Think it was really good for first episode.
But there where 3 things that disappointed me.
1. Character design wasnt as sharp as the manga characters but still oke.
2. Koshimizu, Ami sounds to mutch like Holo from Spice and wolf, both voice and like the character personality.
3. I expect the animation quality to be better its oke but I just expecteed better.

Well I just finished up the 1st episode and I have to admit that I'm not too amazed by this show. I mean I wasn't expecting much from a show with cat-girl samurai's so it's cool. I will enjoy the show for the fan service and love triangle. But I'm not really watching this for the plot. Should be a good light-watch show for whenever I've watched too much serious stuff. Although I have to admit I do like Himari. hot chicks, plus swords, plus cat-girls. Sign me up!
