A camping trip episode? I would have preferred an announcement of a second season instead.

A couple of times during this episode's first ten minutes I couldn't believe what I was watching. It was just too stupid for words.

The last scene redeemed it a tiny bit, along with Shiraho's over the top entrance. She was embarrassed but she played it straight. I have to admire that. Enough so that I may re-watch the episodes she was in.

Overall, I have to say that the series sucked. It earned a 4 on the season.

The characters spent too much time standing around, waiting for their part. While fighting, they spent too much time blathering. The whole premise was a fail since Fear was introduced as being something an order of magnitude more horrible than anything else. But in the end, she was mostly a cute kid and not really tougher than anyone else. As such, nothing much seemed to happen when she fought with anyone. The Iron Maiden effect was well done this episode and the giant, spinning gear looked good although it was always rather ineffectual.

Kirika seemed to have some potential as a character but never really seemed to get untracked. If they'd paced themselves better (i.e. less standing around doing nothing or blathering), then they could have developed all of the characters some more. She would have benefitted from it.

Finally, I didn't get the point of all the gore and such. It didn't really add anything to the show but I felt it did diminish it. And given that the show wasn't offering much to begin with (although the artwork was often good), it would have been better using the time and energy for something else.

Not so bad, but also not very good episode. It's obvious that second season must be, because end of ane battle is start of another one.
Average mark?.. For first episode it was 6/10, for next four -- 9/10, for 6-8 -- 7/10, for 9 - 9/10, for 10-11 -- 7/10, and to last episode I can give 8/10 for the old truth: "If the tool thinking about her existion -- it's not a tool, but a human."
So, 8/10 on average: very good show due to graphic and story.

Crap episode, imo. At the start it was awesome, with lots of action, I said to myself "FINALLY A GOOD EPISODE!", but then, fan service strikes and fucks everything again. The fight suddenly finished, and Alice ran away with some allies that came from nowhere! This anime could be wonderfull... But somethings just fucked it up. Yep, fan service did.

Oh that's nice to know. Speed huh? Well is she the fastest we may see of all the enemies shown? Also want to know her past story of being saved. :D Kururi Nikaido? Love her Kururi name part.

You know now that you told me where is from, sounds rather familiar to a girl from Street Fighter games, I think it was from the 3rd one. Yup she reminds me of that girl exactly!

Well can't wait to see her being animated. I sense nice body and breasts from her.

The gore. Something I loved about this series and its animators was its ability to show sadistic gore and violence without actually showing it. The panned out, changed color, well done shadows, silhouettes, or used a symbolic proxy to show what was happening without actually showing what was happening.

But when Fear jammed a spinning drill into the alice clone, we got very blatant censorship. I guess that'll be a BD extra, but I feel like it would have been nicer if they did what they had done for every other instance of twisted violence in the series

Have to admit...quite an abrupt end, and didnt make clear of the story itself. Expecting a LOT from this show turned out to be a bit disappointing...the plot fets screwed at times. But overall was ok. Gave it a 7! ["Were they humans that were ones tools, or tools that have turned into humans?"]

Urgh, the first 5 mins of the episode were so gross I felt a little sick watching it. Then it became a little laughable when the mirror thing came up. The ending wasn't as good as I hoped for. There was no romantic scene with kissing. :(

It was abit of a let-down for me. Though i'll still give this anime a 8/10. The OP and ED are simply amazing, they do help pulling up the score alot imo, back on the episode, i sure hope they're not going to end it just like that with the cliff hanger. They better give a 2nd season or at least some OVAs to clear things up.

Really ? I recognized that black and white version of C3 logo as very similar to Ef's style but i though it was just a coincidence.
Honestly i liked this anime but Ef was much better.

Ugh, Finally this is OVER!

Boy, I really know how to pick anime, first I watch that "Maji" anime (which sucked horribly),

then I watch Ben-to (Which was so bad I dropped it after ONE episode),

then I watched this!

To be honest it didn't start so bad, in fact I was somewhat interested, however it quickly became into such a stupid story with absolutely NO POINT at all.

In conclusion, I liked the animation, the occasional comedic scenes, and the beginning where it made a little bit of sense.


4/10, I think I'm being generous to be honest.

The first half of the fight was pretty good, but the second half of the fight was anticlimactic and ended to easy. They should of taken longer for the fight and actualy had Haruaki and everyone all fight against the clones in a proper fight but win out in the end, it would of been alot better than it ending as easy as it did.

They stopped drawing Haruaki's bloody hands as soon as he used Konoha in sword form which kind of annoyed me.

Rest of the ep was fine it was just a wrap up and a hint at a 2nd season.
The series itself was enjoyable to watch but yes there were faults and it could of been alot better, but i wont go deep into it. It still gets 7/10 from me since i still had fun watching it.

I really hope there is a second season because if it is left the way it is now...this is a very average show. They showed a group of characters for the first time...during a finale...go figure so I'll be optimistic and say that's a subtle teaser for a continuation of the series at some point.

But, looking at this for the 12 episodes that it is. Very average. I really enjoyed the visuals and animation direction but the story was never really...well you already know.

It seems that a second season is unavoidable as Alice family shows up.

The action in this series was top notch, But the story was average at best.

I didn't really get the story completely maybe that's just because I'm a slow person xD

6/10 from me. Would be a 4 without Peavy, Alice and the fight scenes.

The show really got hampered with the fanservice. I liked the characters but the plot was schizophrenic like hell.

I think a 6/10 is perfect for a show like this. Average and forgettable. Though a second season i could watch. I did like the SHAFT-like animation which is the strong point of the series and this episode had a lot of it.

A second season is possible, considering Silver Link's Baka to Test sold pretty low too and it got a second season, though i liked C3 better than the atrocity that was Baka Test Ni!

If Baka Test s3 is the same as s2 -> More C3
If Baka Test s3 is the same as s1 -> Less C3

Well that's it then. A second season was pretty much confirmed when we saw those new characters. Over all a pretty "meh" series. It really went all over the place. 6/10 for me.

I'm not a sucker for gore, but this is actually pretty good. I love how they portrayed the gore with those SHAFT-like scenes etc. I found this show rather interesting, 8/10.

It was an alright ending, pretty sweet and ended up on a happy note. The fight was meh, cuda been better... but afterwards it was really nice to see them all together like that. Lol at Kuroe, and I loved the scene when Sovereignty and Shiraho showed up. Fear-chan is as adorable as always.

Very enjoyable show and all the girls were so <3. Fear, Kuroe and Sovereignty are all so adorable and moeeee. Plus it's got some gore, making it even more awesome. I sure would love a second season.

I think she might be a masochist. She also seemed kind of turned on when her whip thing was torturing her, and she seemed to like having Haruaki watch it happen. Maybe after a while she started to enjoy the pain from her whip and now she's a full on masochist.

An average finale for a rather average season. I liked the fight scene though and I can't rationally understand why censor something like that. I mean the whole show was running on blood and gore. Guess it has to do something with the time slot, incentive to buy the BDs, but still. 3/5.

I quite enjoyed this show, it was probably the guilty pleasure of the season. Loved the SHAFT-like art and visuals, Fear's weaponry and Kirika's character. I would actually watch another season of it. 7/10.

Well supposedly if they had a better streamline of plot I'd give it a 8.5/10, but I suppose to have AMAZING art, you need to sacrifice some linear flow eh? I wonder how freaking long do they spend developing a single frame in this anime.. Damn.
The artistic part of this anime really caught my eye. Must be one of the best I've ever seen yet.

Alice and Peavy come from two different groups with completely opposite goals, I wonder if those two groups will eventually clash in a continuation. I'm quite surprised Alice got out of that alive and still in one piece. She's completely sick for doing that to Kirika. Unforgivable.

Haruaki's pain tolerance seemed a bit too inhuman here, it was like it didn't hurt him very much after he took the handcuffs off. Fear still has a long way to go with getting rid of her curse. I can't believe Himura also survived, but that's just probably because I hate him.

Several new characters are shown at the end. The ending left some indications for a possible second season. I'd watch it if it gets one, even if just to see more development for Kirika, who has become my favorite character for the entire show.

This really should have been a ~25 episode series.

If it being rushed did not show that alone. You really didn't see any effective progression of any characters through-out the series, nevertheless the relationships between the characters all hit a speed bump.

I thought it was a pretty good episode and I am wanting a second season to see some things through to the end. New enemies to fight. A load of weapons Fear hasn't used yet. And an ending to the harem needs to play out. I must say I wish more happened with Kirika. She should get with Yachi!

Is this the end to the series, or will there be a season 2? I dunno. All I know is the ending felt. rushed for sure, and there wasn't any closure to really any of the characters. It was really gorey. I can't usually stomach stuff like this, but somehow I go through this episode. Not sure what else to say though. Not sure what to rate it given it feels kind of meh at the end.

not much of an ending. I guess they could go with a 2nd season since there's already enemies and no resolutions with the curses/relationships.

that Kuroe loli was pretty annoying, and it would have been better if she never appeared.

decent overall I guess, 6 or 7.

Well there was some serious potential in this series it just did so many wrong things. The serious story is in itself pretty awesome but the fights are dull, the arcs are short and always leave open dozens of questions and it generally lacks structure and feels rushed. Not to mention we have an huge cliffhanger here. This could easily be an anime with a rating of 10 but under this circumstances I can't give more than 7, and I understand those who give lower ratings very well.
