There pretty much the same thing with minor differences. And there both shit. But i'll take Asterisk for having a better opening. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Cavalry's main girl has surprisingly erect nipples. I mean I'm still quite astounded how sharp they look; you can cut butter with those things easily.

Cavalry isn't nearly as generic tbh.
It fucks around with the usual tropes and is heading towards a romance rather than a typical harem. That's already enough for it to beat Asterisk lol.

What are you guys talking about, Seirei Tsukai Machine Doll aired already. Literally it feels like the same show with a new skin each time. Not to complain, but it's almost like they all draw the same ideas from one hat.

Amusing to see how people think romance > harem by default. It's like the people who gave Kiseijuu a 10 just because characters had sex.

Is there a reason as to why they aired such similar shows during the same season? Like did no one realise what they were doing?

lmfao.

OT:
The Cavalry LNs/manga are far better than the Asterisk anime (and likely the LNs as well, though I haven't read them so IDK), but I'm scared of the anime ending up worse just because Silver Link already fucked a lot of shit up and Asterisk has better art/animation. So far it's still better, but yeh.

I'm surprised that these 2 shows even aired at the same season. I mean holy shit the similarities are too much to pass up to even consider coincidences. Did the producers just went into a room and say "Uh... Lets just do a super power school anime this fall... with tsunderes."

Gotta say I'm liking cavalry better just because it has more plot I guess ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

asterisks plot has way more depth. you can tell its really fleshed out with everyones motivations for attending the school and all the subplots like ayatos sister and claudia being all cryptic shes hiding something for sure. in terms of animation and soundtrack asterisk slays rakudai so hard its not even debatable.

>implying rakudai hasn't given us everyone's motivations for attending the school
>implying 'am hre 2 save mein sistuh' is more important than good characters
ok

i mean
its only 2 episodes in so I don't really see the need to compare them for now (other than the first episodes where Rakudai still wins) but Rakudai is so much better in terms of characters even with all the shit Silver Link fucked up that the fact there's a bigger potential for Asterisk's plot (so far) is pretty much irrelevant
