| I think I'll enjoy this series. The first thing I thought when I saw the hummers was Hot Wheels! Haha. . That ending song was good as well. |
 |
| After watching the first episode of Nagi No Asukara i was already getting the *feels* and after watching episode 2 today and seeing the NTR route progress just cut that bit deeper. So i think to myself "i know, i'll watch something to get this taste out of my system, oh Tokyo Ravens that's looks good i could add that to my Sat schedule to watch after Nagi, it looks like the perfect follow up, it has action and supernatural elements, hints of romance, perfect". Wrong!, well in the case of this episode anyway. Talk about twisting the knife, i already felt bad and now i feel even worse, especially after the NTR ending and seeing Hokuto witnessing that (it also doesn't help the fact that i can now see it getting progressively worse for her now that Natsume's character has been introduced). Iv had to include a show between the two to act as a buffer, that being Coppelion (admittedly not my best choice, would have preferred Gingitsune but that doesn't air until Sunday and i need that after watching Sekai de Ichiban). To sum up i enjoyed the episode, i like the lore and the clans the show is introducing, already like the characters (especially Hokuto and i can also see myself liking Natsume further down the line as those archetypes strike a chord with me). BUT FOR SANCTITY OF ALL THAT IS HOLY if your one who those people who once they get attached can't let go i wouldn't recommend watching these two one after the other. It would be like watching all the sad episodes of The Eccentric Family without any of the uplifting ones. That's turned out to be longer than i expected but i felt it needed to be said. Thoughts? |

Thoughts? after your post , i can assume that this episode doing really well by giving the viewer the false impression and cover the plot coming soon . cannot discuss further without spoil |

| The wait is finally OVER! I've been reading the manga but the translations were so darn slow :/ SO GLAD TO IS 2 COUR. I loved the OP and ED. Audio between the voices and background sounds/explosions seemed a bit off at times while I was watching... |
 |
| That kiss was weirdly romantic in a way, but still fucked up at the same time.... I really like the OP, characters,animation and art style so far!! |
 |
| I wasn't too impressed until that blonde girl showed up. |
  |
| I only saw the first episide and looks good but the ending made me want more damn boy |
| The characters blush so much that it started to feel strange after the first half of the episode. The animation was good until the CGI showed up. Especially that creature felt badly done. And we have another "lollipop girl" this season. :P Also, the plot doesn't seem too interesting. I don't know about this one, but propably will keep on watching. |
| Quite the first episode... |
 |
| FUCK. I hate that Suzuka already! Why do some characters like her exist! >________< OMG. Poor Hokuto. :( Don't worry, I'm favor of you. Gosssh.. Some people are just so weird. щ(ಥДಥщ) Why are they in favor for Suzuka? (━┳━ _ ━┳━) |

| tbh, when i first heard the OP I thought Mami Kawada had sang it o.o Either way, I quite like it and that's all that really matters ^.^ |
|
| Awesome OP song, and beautiful animation. Hokuto x Harutora seems like my kind of ship so far, with all the blushing and the rivalry and all the chemistry! He obviously has a crush on her too. Don't know why people hate her... for being a tomboy? Doesn't make any sense... His friend is such a bro. That lolita was... woah... but she is really hatable for kissing him infront of Hokuto, like seriously; people hate Hokuto and not that blondie? Don't worry Hokuto, I will support you and you only. I don't care about other girls in this anime, Haru x Hokuto forever for now. 9/10 and man, that ending song was BEAUTIFULLL! |

| And that's the last of this season's anime started. What is that blonde girl's game? Attacking them, threatening Natsume, acting as if she's about to kill Hokuto... and then kissing Harutora? |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| I found it to be a very good start. Looking forward to more. |
| cool episode, I really liked the opening. |
| I am not entertained. Have too many other anime on my list for this season to bother with this garbage. Nice animation and all but I can get that from lots of places. Dropped. |
Mills said: That last scene was ridiculous. Suzuka is freaking evil. This. Already hate her now. Poor Hokuto. Nice OP and ED, prefer the ED more. Nice fight |

Anyway the animation looks good and OST's are great. I thing I will never get used to the way they blush :P |

| Next season pls. |
 |
| Hmmmm not really the best, but this is awesome |
| 5/5 Sugoi! Series I was waiting for ! Now the background story XD So ... after I came back from summer vacation , in looking at one of the many video clips on the "tube", I had come across on the PV of that souls! My happiness was at its highest , I do not know why, but I really liked it! And starting it today was not disappointed ! * _ * Let's start with the plot, it is now hard to find something new and original, but my attention was directed more to the way in which it developed , from this point I was not very disappointed , beginning calm logical explanations and not smoky , you understand well the various roles . The other crap ... oh well , I do not even notice ! LOL The narrative , the other thing that it went well. Comic and serious at the same time the same without exaggeration . Here has benefited many design, very well done and the character design ! : D The study 8bit worked fine as far as his field of expertise giving us a 3DCG animation and good , it reminded me a lot of that seen in F / Z! * _ * Ultimately , the characters are all promoted even if the girls are a little obvious, yet in their roles , and the protagonist always remind me of the usual idiot , while the bully is the usual hunk ! So the 5/5 for me is more than deserved ! Nothing out of place for which there is the need to lower the voting! |

| Dat chocolate banana. Damn that's pretty fucked up kissing him like that... I hope Hokuto is alright after this. Pretty much stole what was probably her dream ending for that night. But I gotta give her credit for that line "I hate the countryside... because there's too many bugs!"... lol. Not sure how I feel about those blushes, they're drawn kinda weird... but I think I'll hopefully get used to them. The opening sort of gives me Kingdom Hearts / Utada Hikaru vibes. |

| Well if she wants to cut my balls off I will do something "bad" to her if you know what I mean huehuehue. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| cute |
| The CG felt really out of place... HalibelTheEspada said: Damn that's pretty fucked up kissing him like that... I hope Hokuto is alright after this. Pretty much stole what was probably her dream ending for that night. This. |
| I was entertained enough that I will give it a few more episodes. |
| That sadistic loli reminded me of Ekaterina Kurae from qwaser. She even called "mother" to her side xD |
 Read my manga at http://tapastic.com/series/Strawberry-Succubus |
| Finally got around to this series. Liked the blondie, I lol'd at what she said in the end xD Liked the ED as well |

Enjoyable first episode, really feels right to watch this after an episode of Strike the Blood. A quiet start but the way the magic is used is fascinating and I want to see more of it. Yay HanaKana is in this too. Suzuka is one crazy gal, a masochist's ultimate dream. Loving the OP too, an intense and mysterious atmosphere. Reminds me of Higurashi's. |

| Not bad, men that blond girl is one crazy chick, that kiss in the end shit... |
 |
| Hokuto looks like Haruna from Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka. That CGI didn't fit at all LOL at when that girl said she'd cut his balls lel. That ending though |
 |
| dat CG! But anyways, the show has potential. |
  |
| That's an interesting start... |
| Words aren't the only way to tell someone how you feel.- Tifa lockhart Which is it? A memory or us? -Tifa lockhart |
| Really enjoyed this episode, great slow start up and soundtrack, looking forward to watching the rest of this. |
 |
| Strange start, but all together it looks promising. |
| If I drive for you, you get your money. You tell me where we start, where we're going, where we're going afterwards. I give you five minutes when we get there. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're running it down. I don't carry a gun. I drive. |
| Even the dog was blushing. That was kind of bad really. The characters are so anime mediocre anime typical stuff. I feel like i have seen each one of the a thousand times and there whole cute thing looked like some imitation Key type anime thing. Whatever lets hope it will get better. |
| The opening is good. Dat kiss at first episode. It reminds me of campione lol. |
| If you want everything you'll end up with nothing. |
| Pretty lovely start I must say, some interesting characters and especially interesting events! That ending alone was already pure gold! Let's see what's next. |
 |
| Oh wow, stuff goes down in the first ep, I am looking forward to the rest! |
| The Opening Song Was Awesome!!! same with the ending too!!! Looking forward on the character developments and Plot!! Natsume is Kawaii!!! Well.. That Fight!! Harutora.. Harem in the making process.!! That Ending though!! Good Episode!! A Good Start at least!! Gonna Enjoy The Whole Series!!! |

| Isn't that Sousou from Koihime Musou.. lol? |
 |
| This reminds me a bit of strike the blood. Looks interesting though. |
"I have been wielding a blade since before your were swimming around your father's scrotum." - Kurou |
| Picked this up after a friend recommended it to me. Looks promising and the art looks nice and smooth. From what I've heard the fights are amazing, so looking forward to it. |
| The artwork is phenomenal, that's for sure. The sexual innuendos from the blonde haired girl was just out of place. I have no idea what's with the kissing too, like wtf. |
