THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
It doesn't tell much about this anime, better writed something better.
All we know it's a high school action anime.

The opening songs is awesome.

It was a while I saw an anime like this.
Alma recieve some power in the beginning.
That butler was aweful, Alma of course don't want to hear his past and Butler keep telling him.
Ruri make Alma able to control his true power but waking up with Sacred Seven Power, but usually he know how to used his power.
I wonder how many anime right now that are like that.
A bit fast pace with first episode.
Ruri bought the whole school and entering the same club as Alma
So predictable, have seen that before.

Doesn't Itou Kanae recently voice acting a lot of anime?

wow Nakajima Megumi actually voice actor more animes :D

firstly i saw in summary:
some talking mythological stone.. okay, that was unique.

then, armed maid operation. not bad for some fanservice..

angry unicorn guy, pretty cool.

glass over glass, for real? but i hate that guy for sure.

so he needs that little girl for power.

and some kickass powers.


i really like story little stereotype but lots of action, i can give 4/5 for this episode.

A show about mechs, demons, evolution, and megaman.

Evolutionary chain:
human -> unicorn -> red mummy -> human -> megaman

He then proceeds to enter his inventory screen to equip his megabuster instead of what ever those other abilities where.

Hey wait a second, the following:
red mummy -> human
makes no sense at all. Red mummy to human? Huh?

This is like Tiger and Bunny except I think of it as having more elements of the following anime:

except this one has a lot more variations.

That's really cool then because Megaman used to be amazing in anime from what little I had a chance to see of it and it was a absolutely cool game series from the 80s/90s.

Definitely nice they are using someone that looks like Megaman.

i got a CG vibe from this (maybe cuz sunrise is doing it...or clamp is designing it?)...next to the upgraded megaman that appears at the end ;p

Although I did find that little lady and butler duo kind of overdone and lame....I hope the series becomes even more entertaining....

At first I was like, "what the hell is this?", but then I lol'd immensely when whatever-his-face suddenly says "Boat."
Best line in the episode. Definitely. No matter what they'll say during the rest of the episode.
Oh, been a while since I've heard Nakajima Megumi. I don't disapprove.
And I must say the OP sounds... pretty different, for FictionJunction, that is. Gotta love the trippy OP animation though.
So, what's up with all the maids everywhere?

Anyway, it's got all this potential, so let's hope it doesn't go to waste like with so many other shows. I have more faith in Sunrise than most other studios though.

Oh silly you, maids are like the juice of Otakus. Maids are like over used and over popular in Japan. We all know them from Akihabara.

At least the respect to them is back in this series.

Well 7/10 for kickass performance, reserved to change.

The big brat and the little lady have some powers. Anime these days likes to save its setting to be explained in 2nd episode. so I'll wait.
And a protagonist with something in his eye again? Well, not that I dislike it.



> A big guy with something in his eye get isolated at his school. (I know from the PV)
> A classmate who has the same voice as Saten Ruiko befriends him. (I love her voice)
> A loli lady comes to his house for his power. (I like her drills)
> Golem comes annihilate the city out of nowhere. (OK, so unimportant people die)
> They operate in maid outfit. (Really, makes no sense except Moe)
> Glassed butler can pilot something. (But he quite sucks in front of Golem)
> Here comes the big guy goes berserk in mummy outfit. (Cheers for action)
> A butler wants to join the party, but his lady would not allow him to. (Because it's the male lead turn to show)
> The lady gives something to him and turns him into a Megaman. (Know that from the PV too)
> Kickass party.
> Then the lady wants to keep an eye on him, so buy the school and post herself as superintendant. (Damn rich people)



The greatest in this episode is the OP.
The sequence looks unexpectedly comedic than action, especially the part where Ruri runs into his embrace.

Not much was revealed plot wise, but it's only episode 1 so there's plenty of room for improvement.
Also, very nice powers he got there.

This certainly is a Sunrise show.

It has every cliche from every other Sunrise show put into one mess. I bet it will be the best seller of the season since it certainly panders to a very certain demographic which has very deep pockets.

Wow seeing as the same seiyuu is voicing both Alma/Arma and Otoya of Utapri1000, watching this anime after Utapri might not be such a good idea LOL o_O;

This actually reminded me a lot of Blazblue lulz (except the girl isnt as sarcastic as rachel)
Anyways a mecha anime in such a long time for me =o (ever since star driver XD)
I totally facepalmed Alma when he did the thumbs up pose DX and then he did it again later in the episode D: like oh my god ._. please dont do that ever again ._.
Enjoyed both the opening and OST, Yuki Kajiura does her magic yet again

Ive been wandering throughout the episode but is there such thing as a stone club >_>; it sounds so...................unreal.... if there is though then i will swallow that statement lol

Lol, is it just me or it reminds me a lot of tokusatsu premise?

For a sec I thought I was watching the new installment of Kamen Rider....

Minus the mecha, what do we have?

-Monster of unknown origins with a stone/mineral theme -> check
-Secret organization fighting it -> check
-Talking stone demon as an ally -> check
-Mysterious powers that has to be contained by a special suit -> check

it was alright not to bad, not amazing. Though a few things did bug me, that lame as hell thumbs up of his, that tiny ass scooter seriously cant give him a proper sized one? he looks like a clown for god sake lol. The maid squad kinda pissed me off since it sort of cheapened the show and why did they have to make her buy the school thats just over the top. Apart from that it was mostly ok

Very interesting! I liked it!
(Although I think it went a little too fast...it was still good)

And just like everyone said...I agree, it definitely reminded me of Code Geass! Not only the designs, but the general idea of it. Like the guy that has one pink/red eye and then there's the mechs that reminded me of the Nightmares.

Anyway, i'm looking forward to the next episode.

Well, at least the male cast is pretty good-looking so I might hang on for another ep just for that (and prolly to see if Miss. Chairman's gargantuan tennis balls... I mean, eyes... will swell less or not cuz ~ any bigger than that and she might even be able to rival against that dumbass Menma's bowling balls)

Hmmm...
Well, it has one of those super butlers, a crapton of maids, and robosuits. I'd have liked it more if he hadn't immediately accepted the power that ruined his childhood, but she did say she'd take his memories... Does that mean that she erased that part of his past from his mind?

I was going to say that but it was more Ruri's face in the following,

that made it win for me. I mean they brought the freaking school! ROFL! Best laugh of the episode. I still got me some chuckles. Just finished seeing it again in subs.

This could be what you call a good variations shows with action and a major theme, well 2. Gather the 7 and fight the evil. Those dark-stone.

I would like you to be pointed at the spoiler
WTF is my expression. Guy takes the remaining of that monster, makes it into a sword that shrinks to a small dagger, has this energy that flows like veins flow blood through our body and of all things those wings. Now that is something to look forwards to!

I am curious also as to what this involves. Does it mean to be as medium for Tendouji and her stone or is that his past is locked within Ruri's stone perhaps because it's evil. Whatever the case, Ruri's stone must find the other 6. I say that is done in the next 11 episodes and then let's have fun from 13~24. Yes?

well....it wasnt bad...but not that great in the end either. First up was the unicorn and I went like 'oh shit its charlie on crack' srsly I was laughing so hard at that part. Well then some random monster attacks the city...not like i saw that comming...and starts destoying to city YAY DESTRUCTION. Ok so he goes to the city cause of a strange feeling in his chest that he randomly gets meh ok w/e. Well he gets to town and sees that girl get hurt....and go beserk and goes red mummy...at this point the show went complete win. SOOOOOOO now we got the giant stone and red mummy fighting with mummy just massacring the stone like a boss and honestly was goin pretty good till that girl steps in. Girl goes 'im taking ur memories and awaking your true powers blah blah blah NOW I TURN U INTO MEGAMAN'. Ok so now lets go though a system check...long scarf check....down graded suit check....left glowing eye check....ok so wat am i missing....oh well lets go. Stone goes 'U gotta take out those glowy spot at the same time now get you ass moving noob'. Well how the hell im supposed to do that.....OH WAIT IM MEGAMAN*opens equip screen and equips mega buster* IT GO TIME. Finishing it cause im bored of writing now he wins, goes to join club to find out rich girl has bought that school and is now the big boss, and some black armor dude turns the snake thing into a sword then a dagger.

Well cant say much nothing new but meh not too bad will probably be a good time killer. Srsly though i wish they kept his mummy form it was complete badass. The megaman form is just so...ehhh bleh...w/e 7 out of 10 just for the good action scenes.

Both the OP and ED were great. Just one thing, though. Way too much Arma-Ruri togetherness. They're such a terrible couple.. please don't tell me that's how this is going to go. *Sighs* Maybe she'll grow on me. >_>

So yeah, this was looking pretty interesting in the beginning until he goes to school, walks down the first hallway, and suddenly everyone falls quiet. Seriously, what? Bad rumors. Yeah. I got that. And now nobody likes this guy. It just seemed a bit lame. But of course, there's our one female student that has a big heart and wants to help this poor soul! Well, she's better than that puffy-haired Ruri, I will say. Actually, she's a lot better.

I feel like I just got thrown into the middle of a story. In the beginning he's in his room scribbling on.. a.. map? with a red pen. Okay, that's interesting... Anyways, there's some shipwreck in the bay a few seconds later. He goes to school, goes back home, meets Ruri, transforms into Iron-Mega-Ranger-Man, kicks a bit of ass, and then goes back to school.

The stones. What is with the stones? Darkstones. Talking stones. And by talking stones I mean a certain talking stone-headed thing that likes to say "like hell" a lot.

Ah, what else? I liked his first red set of armor better than whatever Ruri turned it into. Pfft, yet another reason to dislike her. That butler's voice is the same as Jintan's. Oh my God, Jintan. I swear, I can't view him as a butler while I've got him yelling, "Menma!" in my head over and over again.

Bleh, and despite how negative this whole post may sound, I actually did rather like this first episode.
