Felicita x Liberta. Yay. And Nova's singing.

Other than that... meh. Oh well. It's a shoujo harem. Can't expect more guns. D8

This episode was pretty boring besides a few moments here and there. Felicità was very cute this ep caring for the cat and wearing that dress. And lol at Luca being stuck on that branch.

Nova singing was hysterical. As were Luca's scenes throughout the episode.

But yeah. Plot vanished into thin air. This is NOT how you do a setup/initialization episode.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

Loved the first ep, had great potential.

Second ep... a cat hunt?

I really think I would've preferred Debito saying "Bambina" in his cool voice on a loop for 20 min.

If I'm not shown an arcana battle royal in episode 3, I might drop this.

Debito. Just... Debito. His voice actor is doing a really good job of Italianizing Japanese XDDDD

Awful episode, imho.

If this series has to be action centered, then wasting one episode out of twelve for a cat chase it's a fail in itself.

If this series has to be character/relationship centered, then you'd expect, you know, characters. And relationships. Instead we got extremely boring, shallow characterization and dialogue. Sloppy writing all the way. There are no strong character differences, no one seems to have a real personality; they're just shallow stereotypes with cute faces.

I will try and watch episode 3... but that's where I draw the line. Probably going to drop this.

This was decent, but disappointing.
I want more action or more plot development like there was in the first episode, not this lame crap.

EDIT 22-09-2012: I have no intention of watching this anymore, it's just boring even when I'm skipping trough episodes. Dropped, 6/10.

This episode didn't bore me, but I am pretty upset that they wasted the second episode on something pointless like this instead of focusing a bit more on the plot I don't have shounen expectations for the story like some people do, but if theres going to be a story behind a dating sim it needs to develop along with the characters and so on. There's only 10 episodes left now. Great.

Yeah...when I watched this episode I literally was expecting something great to happen.
Like, maybe character development? Where does that come in?
Chasing a cute little kitty's nice and all but it didn't help the plot progress at all and literally felt like an episode that came out of those "cutesy magical girl" animes. Blehh how I remembering choking myself after watching those...

I'm not even kidding or over exaggerating, and so I don't know if I should even continue to watch this anime, because so far, it's dragging and has the possibly of crashing and burning even before the end comes.

The plot for me is interesting enough for me to stay here, and some of the characters although I have seen variations of them all before...specifically Liberta (he's a common underdog character "trend" in the anime indsutry).

I guess it sends out an okay message though, so I don't see why they should stop this trend...also it doesn't bother me that he's going to end up being probably the strongest out of all the other characters. Afterall...it's telling everyone not to base everything off first impressions! Guys who are weak aren't weak just because...and guys who are hostile and ignore you aren't mean just because...yeah.

Well, we freaking want to see Liberta and Nova's reason for acting and being the way they are, or even a glimpse of what their true powers that are hidden inside. When is that going to happen? Is it ever going to happen? haha

*looks at poll results* Whoa, this anime kind of gets hate and love at the same time. :/

I was debating on whether to keep watching or not. Well, I am. I'll continue and go watch ep 3 and 4 tomorrow. Maybe it'll impress me. I don't know.
Not loving the series yet!

I love half of the characters while the others are just okay.

As others said, it feels kinda like a filler!

GOTTA SAY - I LOVE THE OPENING ANIMATION + MUSIC. <3 I never skip it. lol

A disappointment after the previous episode, which had my hopes up for this anime. The second ep turns out a boring filler about a cat search... nothing original. There was a couple of good bits though. I enjoyed the Felicita x Liberta scenes - they look cute together. Feli using her power and Nova reacting to it is great too.

A drop in quality, but at least Nova showed off some mad singing skills at the end... or not.

5/10

The only thing that was the slightest of my interest was nova's singing lol.
I like the episode though.
Another thing why does Nova look so much like ciel phantomhive?

WHAT THE HELL. This cannot be for real. Everything felt so forced. Everyone seemed so OOC. This goes for the heroine most of all. Her voice doesn't fit a tiny bit. Dante and Jolly look much different from the game, too. Jolly looks HALF his age. *facepalm* I'm not sure if the series focuses more on Libertà, but I believe when she wore that dress Nova's face was red, too. The start of this episode felt so stiff with the introductions. Same goes for Jolly later on... What's with this stupid attempt to show his ability? And this whole thing about the cat, too... It didn't even take 10 minutes to finish in the game. The animation quality was horrible as well.
If this series isn't any better in the following episodes which I fear it isn't, this whole anime is an embarassment for all of the originally involved people.
