Wew, great start to the anime ^$^
I liked this episode, great characters and Toshibana's best friend is so cute *~*
I'm looking forward to the next couple of episodes, I've never seen an anime like this, this looks interesting.

well, that's pretty much the point though, it's not like you die for real in airsoft...

fun fact: this'd actually be considered "speedsoft" given the fast paced action and the duration of the round, also it's more arcade than milsim.

Yeah I understand that... But calling it survival, life on the line and with that awesome animation and all it just makes it seem "over the top".


that's just because in japan they like calling airsoft/milsim/speedsoft a "survival game"... they kind of boast everything they do in japan.

It started off really promising but then it turned into some otome game anime?
Also this girl really has some bad anger management problems.

This, kind of.

I'm not sure about this one yet. It could be good (after all Ouran High School Host Club is pretty good) or it could be awful.

i'm interested only in the airsoft/speedsoft side of it, hopefully they will make airsoft shine in a better light than other shows.

The way the episode started kind of seemed boring and cliche, but I have a feeling that the rest of the plot will take a turn into the shounen genre pretty fast... the whole BB gun idea is pretty unique so maybe it'll turn out to be a good one.

a OHSHC remake with guns!

Masamune is so pretty, he looks like a mix from Baldroy and Finny from Kuroshitsuji :3

Judging by the first episode, this show seems to be Ouran with bb guns.

....Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

It's set itself up to be an interesting series. I think it has the potential to be great, as long as the plot doesn't mirror Ouran to a "t". It was just too similar to Ouran for me to fully enjoy myself watching it. However; the action scenes with the guns were intense and well-animated! - they were easily my favorite parts of the episode! Anyway, it gets a 3/5 from me for the premiere episode.

I don't know why people are saying it is completely like Ouran... Is it because the girl is mistaken as being a boy, one of the main guys is a host and she ends up having to be a part of his group because she lost the fight? I think people are exaggerating these few similarities. They aren't that alike so far.


I liked the first episode. It may end up being one of my favourites of the season. 7/10

don't care if it's shoujo and shonen ai, if i've seen free, ichiban ushiro and ping pong(which weren't, all at at least, necessarily bad) then i can watch anything(except a certain anime that was going to give me a heart attack)


so yeah, bring the action, i won't care about anything else.

Tachibana, Matsuoka... "Free!" much? :D

When Hotaru said that she's so grown up now, because she starts living on her own I was like "Yeahh... You really make me feel like you're an adult, addressing yourself in 3rd person and all that... Yup, very mature." xD

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu voicing the Hentai Mangaka?? This is gonna be fun! It feels like a nice change coming from him, after I listened to his sugarloaded voice of Bell.

Definitely gonna keep watching, it seems fun so far.

Seems like a survival game OHSHC. The heroine is kind of obnoxiously intense which got on my nerves. I was wondering if the reoccurring theme of breaking things with her hands/feet was supposed to be funny because to me it was just annoying I was like RELAX. But I like the Tamaki Suoh of the show so I'll keep watching for now.

Oh look, yet another gay transgender character. Dropped.


She's not transgender, as she seems completely comfortable with being female and even goes so far as to correct people who misgender her.

But sure, a woman wearing pants and having short hair makes her trans now. Guess I'm transgender too!

Sexist ideas like that belong in the 50s.

Yeah, because if an anime has anything for fujoshi, it has to be low quality right guys? Right? /sarcasm

Yeah, no. Shut up.

At the beggining I think it'll be a little boring, but by the next minutes I changed my thoughts. In fact, Tachibana is annoying and Matsuka is similar to Usui (more like "Usui-type" not only Usui version 2.0. You know what I mean? XD), but it doesn't matter. Anyway I like host club atmosphere, because I falling in love with Ouran, so Aoharu x Kikanjuu is good choice for me. By the way I'm curious about Yukimora so I can't wait 2 episode. These three could be interesting trio.

I'm just lol'ing from how over-the-top this is. Hotaru destroying everything in her path, she's so super human. XD
Not a huge fan of the MC's personality and the host thing, but I like the animation. The manga synopsis is much more interesting than the anime one.

Now on to the survival games! The OP promised me some good action scenes. Next episode preview looking good. :D

This show seems promising as long as there isn't any stupid love scenes then I'm super game with it.

I fucking love Tachibana Hotaru and love how she refers to herself by her surname, "Tachibana wa..." I'm also digging how strong she is, she's definitely my type of girl.

I'm seeing what other people are saying that it's reminiscent of Sagebu and Ouran HHC.

At first I thought, "Is this BL?"
No, it's just an annoying girl that looks and dresses like a little boy.

Haha, that was so cool. XD It reminds me so much of Ouran, Masamune (I hope I spelled that right) is so much like Tamaki. ;w; (but without his excessive yet adorable stupidity so far XD) Seriously, just wow. Good thing considering how much I love OHSHC(and Tamaki haha). Can hardly believe this is a shounen/boys thing, it feels a tiny bit shoujo, with those hints of some kind of relationships between Hotaru and the two guys. Main character's a girl for another thing. I'll plan to watch more of this. ^^

I feel right at home watching this. It reminds me of Ouran. It reminds me of Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou. It reminnds me of Sabagebu. And oh, did I mention the OP is great?

Sold. The only complaint I have is, I wish he invited her to the host club. Would have been funnier (tho people might have said it plagiarized Ouran that way) Guess it's just me who prefers romcom over action. Well, as long as it's entertaining and I have this "feel right at home" feeling, nothing is stopping me from loving it.

Exciting, although a bit boring in the first half with the long convo between Hotaru and her female friend. I like the premise. This is promising.

Maeno's character is cool. I like him.

I like both the OP and ED, but slightly more on the OP since it's sung by the seiyuu. I feel like this is gonna be really cute later.

edit- Reading the comments in this thread infuriates me. I can't believe you otakus are so trans/homophobic lmao.
