Heh, they're still goofing around with the food outfit. Thanks for the comedy, Licht.

I have to say though, Licht is a kind man at heart, even offering a doll for that little girl. Hina is cute as heck, of course the customers likes her. It didn't take long for Jail to find Licht and I'm not surprised. Licht facing off against Jail is a sight to see and they didn't waste time getting into the action.

Let me guess ... the mc-kun real number isnt 5700 .. isnt it. And he will oneshots the bad guy next week.

Is this whole show about people lying about their real number counts ?

Man these townsfolk were really giving Mei such a hard time, I guess being too kind can be a bit problematic.....
So jail's count was way higher than Licth

Not usually my cup of tea when it comes to anime, a bit too heavy on the goofy comedy.
But the show reminds me of Trigun which was one of the first animes I ever watched on TVn (and more or less only) so kinda feelin nostalgic like towards it (^.^)

After the first episode I was wondering what kind of "twists" the show can do with this concept (when will the first person appear that holds more than one ballot to offset their counter?). Although this might be battle shounen in a nutshell, only this show is really blatant about it.

Gotta admit, was pretty funny when the bad guy removed his glove (though I'm sure it was supposed to be a tense scene). When Licht was wondering why everyone in this town was so stupid (think I'm paraphrasing :D), I asked myself the same question. You know that this guy is a wanted criminal? Does anyone even care?

This wasn't as bad as the previous episode but it wasn't really much better. Animation is still completely garbage. I swear it's like they got budget for 1-cour but decided to do 2-cour instead lol. I hate dropping stuff but without it being as bad as last week, I guess I might if next week isn't super interesting or super awful.

Gotta say that Lynn and Hina are both pretty adorable. Jail meets up with Licht and Jail is lying about his count He's really strong though... I wonder if Licht is lying as well about his own count.

So I am not really someone who nitpicks a lot, I am easily entertained, but the art is so damn inconsistent that it puts me off at times...

I really like this anime but I just wish the pacing was a little bit faster; there are some scenes that are unnecessarily long. I'm glad that they FINALLY explained about the Ballot Holders too!

I was wondering since last week why Licht was carrying around the huge spoon... well, now we know haha Looks like he's met his match... he's in some deep shit!

for anyone wondering the filler this week was the mini skirt fantasies and both scenes with Hina after the opening theme so when she becomes an employee and the forest scene.
anyone wondering wether or not to stick it out with this show should really try to get to episode 8 but next week's episode should be very good if the fight is well animated.

Ok. I'm starting to like this anime more and more. And characters are getting better "emanating" so I will change score from 6 to 7/10 (at least for now). :)

And I have a theory, we all remember how Hina original counter was unreal (in the sense that she could not walk such a long distance in presented short amount of time).
So what if she didn't really pass that number by herself only she got this number from her mother who sacrificed her counter because Hina's was approaching zero?
I mean, if you think about it she was a still a small kid when her mother "died" and small kids can't walk such long distances like adults and thanks to this episode and Nana now we know that counter can shrink by itself (at least that's how I understood this).
So maybe her mother seeing Hina's shrinking counter challenged her to a duel (as a play) and she intentionally gave up therefore transferring all numbers.

I'm enjoying this anime. I think the score should be at least a 7 but I can see where people will get thrown off by this anime.

Animation is nice and they finally got around to explaining what Ballots do and why they are illegal.

They could have upped the fanservice a little bit, but I am looking forward to this anime getting a littlle more serious.

Lynn is nothing more than walking fanservice tool at this point and comedy and gags associated with her are cringy to say the least. Also, her distributing hand-drawn wanted posters like some damn leaflets, while there are already Licht's wanted posters hung around is silly.
Nothing makes sense about this woman. That might be just dreaded Mary Sue trope at play.

Also, Hina after learning how dangerous and punishable mere possession of bullat is:
Ima gonna pull this out in public and stare at it.

The amount of cringe and bullshit is abysmal and I can physically see it spilling out of my screen.
And don't even get me started on animation quality and distorted faces.

I'm gonna continue watching just because my standards are low enough.

Spoiler alert just in case.

Another episode. For this one I can't say it was bad episode, I think it was okay episode, but there were 2 facts bothering me a bit.

1, We start with Hina looking for a legendary warrior, first 2 episodes follow her meeting with Licht and her 'confrontation' with the army. Hina has like 30 seconds in 3rd episode and 4th episode goes in very similar way. Why did we start with Hina anyway, when she's going on side tracks only after 2 episodes?

2, This episode is okay. New potential villain is introduced in decent way, I liked the introduction, I think it was done well. Problem for me is Lynn, not her personality, but: Well it's kinda like with Hina saving really, the girl Licht doesn't know, she is really kind person, this time she's trying to catch him and get promoted in army, but in the end Licht goes white knight and save her despite him not knowing her much. It felt really forced to show off Licht good persona and to artificially villainize the army guy ordering his men to attack her with Licht. I don't mind seeing characters saving people, who are kind and innocent, but I worry this trend's gonna go on and become cliché and annoying really fast.

I liked this episode more than 3rd episode, so I hope it's gonna improve.

By this time, Hina SHOULD'VE realized how bad it is in her stead to have a Ballot Holder, the only gift that's passed down from her deceased mum. In hindsight, Nana decides to support Hina and accrue resources to find Licht.

Back to Master Sergeant Lynn and Sergeant Pele, the uniform jokes just keep coming, and the Mr. Pudding a.k.a Licht joke that seems to drag on. But regardless, it's not supposed to be funny, but it is. The inspiration from Sora no Otoshimono playing risque here when it comes to the comedic, lewd stuff. It's even funnier that the townsfolk just followed EACH AND EVERY of Lynn's whelms, and Licht just fixes things like he would.

With First Lieutenant Jail, things get worse. After interrogating Hina and Nana, found him perchance, and immediately, the situation goes awry with the power balance very off. Licht is in BIG trouble...

The best of 4 episodes so far.

Jail and Licht's fight was very interesting. I wonder how he'll get out of this.

I'm starting to like this anime, I'm curious to see where it goes.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

Let me say, Plunderer gets really good as it goes on and you'll be happy its 2 cour. When I saw a certain individual in the poster I was like "WAIT WE'RE GETTING TO THE INSANE TWIST?" Once we get out of the slow start and the plot starts picking up you'll see. I paused on the manga right after the 2nd twist not cause I wanted to, but cause I caught up to the english. I'll go back eventually, probably after I see how far the anime goes.

Wow that guy has more than double of Licht's count. I wonder how Licht will manage to escape now. Also wow I didn't see that coming, I thought he was strong but not that strong. For someone that strong to appear so soon to capture Licht was unexpected.

I can't take this shit seriously when all of their numbers are evenly rounded numbers. It's like the numbers were arbitrarily decided to show "my number > your number" instead of being well thought out.

Is it just me or does the visual quality drop noticeably during comedy scenes? I get it, the animators need to save up money for the really important scenes, but they could have done a much better job at hiding it. Also, two questions. First, why would that girl leave that doll lying around? It's like she wanted it to get stepped on. Second, does the military have no problem starting a battle in the middle of a populated area? I'm guessing this will lead to some story about corruption in the military or something lame like that.

Once again, the action only picks up till the end of the episode. Jail reveals his true power and Licht says that now, he could be in real trouble. Wow, no kidding, Sherlock. This show really needs to step up its game.
