Wow, it's actually getting worse. First of all, you DON'T say someone is charismatic, you SHOW that. And what they have shown is Haku being a lazy wuss who is liked by people because plot demands it. And the second thing: yaoi fangirl princess? Really? That's as far as you can ride on the first series name. First episode was really good and promising. Then it went completely downhill from there. At this point I don't even know if I want to watch it any more. Kuon is nice characters but she can't carry the whole show by herself when they load it with the worst current anime industry can offer.


The show is a VN adaption, expect some character building. After all this is a 24 EP (2-cour) anime show, this ain't ur typical rush and glory..

I actually started to wonder if Ukon is that much of a false identity. I mean, of course, he's oficial name Oshutarou, but I think his real personality might be more similar to that of Ukon. After all, I think it's much easier to look decent when there is a need to do so, than be so open and in general Ukon-like around people for so long. Especially that I think he actually spends more time as Ukon than as masked general Oshutorou...

I'm not seeing this whole charisma thing that Haku supposedly has. He's just a NEET sponging off his lovely sugar mama Kuon.

Still really enjoying this series though. Feels like a really laid back jrpg adventure.

Worst episode so far and the dip in quality was quite heavy. Whole episode they kept glorifying one thing that Haku definitely does not have - charisma. Quite honestly he is very bland and uninteresting person and it is shown that way - the way he speaks, his apathetic mannerisms - but somehow apparently all of the characters find it charming and attractive. I don't know, I call in bullshit, this seems a bit like from some cheap MC glorifying LN but that is not surprising I guess since the first Utawarerumono is even worse in that aspect.

And while it is unevitable and I should just deal with it, the growing number of harem female members is still something not quite pleasant to watch, especially since aside from Kuon the girls are quite on the shit side and again feels like it came from a cheap LN with those BL gags and stuff.

It's just a bit painful to see the story going that way knowing what potential this fantasy setting has. I hope it this is only a temporary goof.

Even if the pace is slow, the plot is not bad, in fact the background and the construction of the characters is good even if the characterization is minimal. Drawings and animations of good quality, always beautiful scenery and fine. The next episode looks interesting again. More than satisfied of this anime.

Rurutie being fujoshi was so funny. Also, Kuon <3. Best girl of the season.
That Kuon twist was really good. Slowly getting into the politics and stuff, I'm hooked. And I really see the charisma of Haku in many ways.

You forget about the incest fantasy little sister.

I also wonder why no one seems to wonder why he has no tail and floppy ears.

But I don't know... I'll give it another chance.

Frequent baths in hot springs might not be as normal as you think. Actually during baroque era in Europe people didn't take baths (at least the noble ones).

So Oshutoru is actually Ukon. Pretty interesting. The after credit scene has me wondering who the emperor is.

I miss Touka, Eruru and Aruru.


As far as Touka and Aruru are concerned,

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

No wonder Nekone's voice sounds familiar. She and Chino from Gochiusa share the same seiyuu.

Why so much fan service. One of the reasons I liked this as much as I did was the lack of typical service-y character designs and lack of other generic stuff.

Hope it was just "for a change" like with them beach episodes.

Well knowing how much of harem rom-com elements the original had, it's inevitable that such things will be present in Itsuwari. Doesn't make it any less awful tho.

That's too bad, I really liked the atmosphere and tone that the first few episodes had.

Rurutie is such a fujoshi. Reminds me of Pina and Bozes.

Nekone is a nosy brat, but she is still likeable.

I know this is late but Haku's Charismatic trait was shown in the game instead of the anime
