ok it was ok, but it was too rushed imo
i guess this show will have lot's of spicy stuff

and why would the guard do (whatever she did) that to her? i thought that rape attempts came from other inmates

The first episode was okay. The Light of Mana thingy seems interesting. But the end was a bit disturbing.

Music and SFX louder than voices, seriously?

Also, very bad episode. Sunrise keeps making them trainwrecks.

Either way she might had been ignorant but if i was her i would get my revenge. I would let them dragons attack the city and royal family. I could careless about the anal thing she had to tone that stuck up princess someway what better way to do it.

So this is supposed to be Gundam SEED wannabe featuring Cagalli? Approved.
The only thing bothered me was the Light of Mana thing in a city filled with technology.

This anime is supposed to be original or an adaptation of a manga? I have seen that has a manga adaptation since August, but it seems very little margin to start making an adaptation. That is the reason of my question.

Nah. My prediction is that Ange will continue to fight dragons. The brother will get toppled from power and little sis will replace him as a Norma-loving queen. Happy end.

Call me crazy but I actually found this to be decent. Sure it's fanservice-y, but I felt it had enough interesting elements to counter-weigh that. It's not exactly something to write home about but I'll at least be keeping up with it.

ye the ending was depressing but the rest of the show was entertaining


For me, my biggest low point in my book is not-so-much the rape scene, as much as the following forgiving reaction from Rukino.


Maybe I'm different, but I was actually alright with this. She was a fucked up character. She had such intense feelings for him that she was alright with it. Chalk it up to her being a stupid teen not knowing what love is or something. She had a troubled past and they're all kids trying to be independent. They're kids in a situation where kids shouldn't be.
Just to clarify, I'm not saying rape is a good thing, it's terrible. Bad. And I don't think she deserved it or anything, but I feel like such a fucked up persona was written into her character. I didn't feel like the writers just threw that scene in there and never revisited it (okay maybe they could have revisited at least one more time, but it was alright).

So what I got out of this was that none of the characters, even Ange, are likable. How she treated that mother and child left me unable to feel bad for her when all the awful stuff went down after. This has Code Geass' look, another series where I hated pretty much everyone, but I'll see if this improves somehow.

HAHAHA some of these posts are plain ridiculous. Get over it.

Aside from the last scene being very awkward and obviously out of place it was entertaining enough to warrant a follow up. I'm sure the action sequences will be good and for as much as people are complaining about the fanservice this was pretty damn mild. You had what some "figure" scenes at the start, some pantsu that wasn't being forced down your throat, mother's boobs on the balcony, and then the weirdly placed final scene...seriously put in perspective.

Damn, pretty hard pill to swallow. Was very surprised to see that happen to her...from another woman no less. Sunrise has killed off characters before, but now deflowerment/rape? Don't give me that shit, it's still rape, even from another woman. I hope Ange gets her revenge in full, and that Julio eats lead. Well, at least it wasn't a man. The feminists might raid the animation studio if that happened in a TV broadcasted anime. Blood and gore are apparently ok it seems. And I guess they'll introduce that dude with purple eyes from the opening in a later episode. He's practically looked like a clone of Kira.

This show just blows. She was lied to all her life and the world is taught you do not have magic your not human. This is one world that needs to be destroyed and not saved. In this show the Dragons are the good guys as that entire effed up world needs to be destroyed!

Hated first episode and the story is just plain stupid.

I'm a pretty rugged guy, I rekon to be true. And I love gory anime and manga, like Gantz and most other psychological series.
But this is the first anime I have seen, that actually made my gut twist in disgust.

So unfair and blatantly Discriminating it made me feel genuinely sick.

Awesome show though XD

Considerin' they think Normas as monsters, wouldn't their parents be the traitors for concealing her.

We saw how even Ange treated Normas so its not like its a trait only for Julio.

Violently penetrating someones anus is rape. Besides, you know EXACTLY what the creators were thinking, it was supposed to titllate, and you can clearly see Ange writhing in the outtro

IDK about this, it was meh in here. The beginning they are fighting dragons, then it shifted back to some kind of backstory in the rest of the episode. Also the ending scene was "WTF did I just see." The audio is also pretty low and it is hard for me to listen to the voice actors and sound effects.

Though I liked the twist where she was exposed by everyone, that she is Norma and having some dark themes in here.

For a Sunrise Mecha, this was an OK episode, although it wasn't that impressive for the first episode. Though I still watch this to see how the story goes.

Don't know what to think of this. Don't like the mc, but this is still pretty messed up. + the mecha & girls fighting dragons which doesn't really make sense. Watching the next episode though.
