THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------


It looks like TAN is airing this earlier than usual so that's a surprise. Even subbed too!

Anyways, nice episode and it's been ages since I've watched anything from To-Love Ru. The latest chapter from yesterday was pretty hot tbh.

It was nice seeing the gang again - Lala, Yui, Haruna, Nana, Rito, Yami, and especially Momo since she'll be staring in this series. That of course and the new girl Mea!

What a morning though, ha! Momo and Nana looks good in their school uniforms though. But Momo is quite daring in the bath. She's trying to build a "harem" for Rito and...LOL, gl with that. Also, some action from Yami against zombies..

Anyways, nice to see this series again :>

Surprised to see this out so early. Although, I'll be waiting for the AT-X broadcast to watch this series.

The episode wasn't that bad. It was okay!! 3/5!!! I'm not really that disappointed with the anime version !! I will wait for AT-X to do this on October 9 and hoped the sub group will sub the AT-X one!!! Momo and Nana really looked great in the school uniforms!

I really kind of like the opening:


Lala and her little sisters in the opening


After the opening..here's..the first appearance of Mea introduced herself to Nana!!

While it is not the best show ever I still like the character designs and the action they had this episode was cool although t was simple.

OP had nice vocals and ED was cute.

How much censoring there is (although there is AT-X...: ( poor video quality) will greatly determine my continuing the show while airing. Odds are, I think this will have to wait for blu-ray to fully enjoy the to-love-ru experience.

It is one of the better ecchi themed anime. The cast is great and light rays galore just ruins it.

It felt so great to watch this again but the censoring of TAN annoyed me a lot especially the excessive white light they use >.<!!!
I'm gonna wait for the uncensored broadcast(AT-X hopefully) or worst case scenario wait till BD's come out.

you can totally see why there is Darkness in the title.. it definitely has a different atmosphere compared to the previous series while staying as the same To LOVE-Ru that we know of.. good thing they were able to carry that from the manga.. but anyway, i won't bother with this censored ver anymore starting next week..

I really hope a subgroup picks up the AT-X airing. From what I've seen most of them are doing the regular release since they don't wait to wait 5 days.

Is it just me or is the art border quality really low? I was kinda disappointed by the art so far because of it. Needs a lot better anti-aliasing.

Ahhh, the good ol' To Love-Ru we've all come to know and love is back. The first episode was pretty good, the mood definitely feels different from Motto. The op even has a different feel. I'm looking forward to the rest of the season.

I know right...i mean sure TLRD may be a little above DxD in ecchi if they animate it exactly like the manga but it shouldn't be so bad that they censor like they did T_T; i dnt get why they censor at all really...

So much light beams. So much censoring. :/ So much rage from all of that.

Well it still was a good treat. Hopefully when it airs for real, it would be a lot better. At least I already know what happens in episode 1. :v

Love TLRD and that was a great start, though!

Well, perhaps because it's not safe? Though I still have many theories in my head here. Or maybe it depends on the station that they air or subscribed there.

Yeah, I agreed. I hope the AT-X version is not censored on October 9, I don't think ecchi series that are broadcasted in AT-X don't mean always uncensored. The video quality was poor! Let's hope the AT-X version is better.

I knew I should have waited for AT-X but got curious. Censoring was actually worse than I initially thought.

Damn light beams and darkness. The mortal enemy of men.

I'll just rewatch the OVA to wash away this feeling of disgust.

No he is not. It was just imagination though. The series will have stuff that is close to Aki-Sora stuff but with no details such as Aki had like ejaculation but it might. Who knows. At least I am certain there will be no sex like in Aki-Sora.

All else is in. Anything you can think of that is 18 but requires no censoring formats like in Aki-Sora.

That being said I am not wasting time with censored stuff of this. Furthermore I have much shows to watch so censored? BDs and skip the whole thing.

You didn't even watch To Love Ru, and dropped Motto; Why even bother trying to watch this then T_T

If you didn't like it before you aren't going to like it now; you make it seem like the concept of the series will magically change for you or something.

I still think it was in Rito's head. At least it does not count since I don't think her remembers it. Moreover I don't think he could since he would KO from sheer embarrassment every time he reminds himself of it.

I am watching it for comedy and Mei. I am certainly have nothing to gain to start this up nor I have plans to.

I don't care of the perverted pleasures as extra. I am not exactly a person that gets kicks out of this. I am only getting ROFLs of it, which makes me unique and I like it. It's obvious the series should have been long done in S1 however it was extended and worked upon cause of its ecchi appeal. Which today after years shows fruits and rather gross numbers of marketing.

That being said, the series was wise to extend up to here else it would be a waste of a market money potential.

It wasn't in his head...that scene was a memory that Mea saw when diving into his mind; its the exact same scene that occurred earlier in the manga only in more detail(thus why we saw it in episode 1 yet we didn't see the Mea diving scene yet which occurs later).

Also.....your really saying that memory justifies whether something counts or not....it still happened regardless of whether he remembers it or not

As for the sheer embarrassment; he has improved throughout Darkness; he doesn't always react like he use to. Heck he even
