| Nice to see a kiss scene and resolving the conflict quickly |
 |
| It wasn't a bad episode, but I noticed some drops on the animation, but they're probably going to adapt some battles in the next episodes so I hope we can see more of Ikki's fighting style. |
"Doubting everything that you take on... That is very important. Open your own eyes, clear out your ears, and look and listen to the world... And think using your own brain. After you've doubted everything, there is a possibility of something real to believe in. To believe in something, doubt everything." |
| And they finally kissed. Not much happened, but the episode was still damn cute and nice. |
  |
| I really like the LQ between Stella and Ikki. Based VA's. And dat kiss awwwww couple of the season. Well, the LN fans are disappointed in the pacing and the stuffs SL added and removed, what should happen really in this episode? |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
Ahh... the kiss finally happened.  |

| FLUFF! :D I can't get over the these rearranged scenes. I'm not complaining it's not bad but it could've been better. |
 |
| That fight between Stella and Ikki at the end was so good to watch, especially the way it ended. Idk it's been a while since I've see something like that. This anime is perfect. Oh and the animation was a bit derp at the begging, when all of those guys showed up to fight Ikki. |
| Seems like Rebecca Silverman over at ANN is becoming more and more a fan of the show. Her score for the first few episodes started at a 'C+' and has slowly crawled up to a 'B'. A few more episodes and she might make it all the way to 'A' ;P |
 |
| Here I was like "Oh well, guess even Cavalry has to do this shit." when the boys started ganging up on Ikki but nope! They became his disciples/admirers soon afterwards. Lazy LN cliche avoided - or even better, baited audience into thinking it was one, then immediately turned it around. And gotta say, Stella's like, one of those few tsunDEREs that have even the little bit of remaining tsun they have justified. I mean heck, Ikki's like overly generous devoting his time to so many, while Stella just wants some more well-deserved attention. But they'll manage, no storm's sinking this ship. |
| "not a harem" i call bullshit lmao but overall i guess it was an amusing episode, stella still bein cute |
| My heart just came a little bit...GG WP....Why cant all anime have such a cute couple...Maybe because we wouldnt be able to handle that much cuteness if that was the case... |
 |
| Went off script a little bit but I can't say I enjoyed Ayase's part anyway. Oh well, at least they finished it off with that kiss at the end. The Ikki x Stella ship continues to set sail. |

CookingPriest said: aikaflip said: It seems like this series is mocking anime cliches. Rather than have the group of jealous guys become his enemy, they joined him. Rather than having Stella and Ikki's relationship get all complicated with misunderstandings, they worked things out, AND kissed. I like that. 5/5 Agreed. Its genuinely self aware and the adaptation is highlighting that. Yep. Really liking Rakudai because of that. Noticed some changes in visuals in the OP too ;o Dat kiss tho |
 |
| well the kiss scene went better than expected. I honestly thought they were going to "break up" for awhile over the misunderstanding |
╳ ╳ ╳ |
| Damn, a kiss in a romcom?!??! Almost unheard of. And Stella looked even more gorgeous without the twintails. |

| I couldn't stop laughing watching them argue. Nice episode overall. Really cute kiss. |
| This anime surpassed every other "Fantasy-Action-Shool-Swords" LN adaptions that have came out in the last years. I started watching Rakudai K... because a friend told me this wasn't another harem, and I'm glaad to see it, usually LN adaptions all have the same plot and development, and made us suffer a ton of boring episodes for nothing happening. _______________ Ikki and Stella really make a cute couple. |
 |
| Gotta give the show one thing for a LN adaptation to have a relationship between the main characters and even focus some on it is something. However that still doesnt mean the relationship is well written whatsoever. Usual misunderstanding troupe that often come with the awful tsundere characters. Absolutely predictable fight. But hey anime and romance was never strong and this is definetly not among the mediums finer examples. Also that "fight" at the beginning was ridiculous again. Ikki just casuallly throwing that little ball right between his revolve hoslter like its nothign. Also whats with "another one". Do the japs really think that sounds cool? Sounds lamer than "Worst one" if you ask me. Still its better than the average LN. So about 4/10 :D |

| ikki and stellas romance makes me cringe :( i feel like they have no chemistry and the storys just trying to force them together and its not even doing a good job at that either because incest bitch throws herself at ikki at every given chance. also stellas voice actress is decent at best so it kills everything. all the girls are really ugly too oh my godddd whats up with that? i thought the otome game portion was hilarious though and im raising the score just for that and stella with her hair down. girl better kill those pigtails |
I feel like the animation quality is slowly declining at some parts. |

| Dat kiss and dat argument doh!! |
 |
| The obligatory swimsuit/pool episode and this was pretty enjoyable. The guy's reactions when they saw the girl's swimsuits then became shocked at Alice's was hilarious. I was getting worried that the whole misunderstanding during the argument would get dragged on for a while but I'm so glad it was solved really quickly. A lover's quarrel, haha. Ikki and Stella were just so worried about each other being to even take action. At long last, they finally kissed. <3 I have to agree with what others have said about this anime mocking the cliches of other anime in the same genre/setting, it's somewhat refreshing yet familiar. Stella x Ikki ftw~ 5/5 |

Me:What??? yuiyuigahama:hi im allen im a high school sophomore and i love men Me:Oh... i mean i can appreciate a pretty girl when i see one like julis from asterisk but really stella shizuku and glasses girl are all aesthetically unappealing. stellas pigtails literally kill the man i hate them. id personally make shizukus hair longer straight and pulled back on the sides. stellas hair should be kept down or pulled back into one high ponytail. also wardrobe design is absolutely horrid those giant bows in the back of their uniforms are so unflattering. end superficial rant |

| Stella and her love relationship with Ikki is clearly the reason to watch this show. Overall the plot is generic and the show is nothing special but Stella has been a fun soft-tsundere to watch. Wish more were like her. 4/5 for the episode; 7/10 for the show so far. hayka said: Love that episode. Episode 5 that is. That whole embarrassing pool scene. I'm a 20+ years old, watched alot of animes but those "pure" moments always get me. god knows how many times I paused it because it was too embarrassing. I no I no. I'm such a wimp. I do that sometimes but more I pause it to squirm and jump and down at the romantic feels. |

| seriously am i the only one who was like "let me guess someone or something will prevent them from kissing" ? XD damn 2 weeks and nothing happened what the fuck where they doing ? |
 |
| This is getting even better xD Ikki now have a fan club haha from a guy who got an F rank he is damn good now xD Stella so cute :3 |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| The Ikki x Stella pairing is so cute! It's unusual to see even a kiss in these type of Animes, so I am glad that it happened. This is getting better every week! Let's see how they will crush the student council members. |
| I'm feeling thank you |
| That was a beautifully adorable lover's quarrel. I haven't seen something that precious in anime in a long time. Fantastic episode. |

Noticed some changes in visuals in the OP too ;o Dat kiss tho always been a fan of quick draw stances so looking forward to seeing the Prez fight judging from the OP |
 |
| I love this show more than asterisk,probably cause i'm more into romance than harem shows.Not much happening story wise but the characters act way different from the usual trope,which is a good thing.Also the kiss happened so all is good 10/10 |
| Lead me out of the dark,bishounen space Jesus. |
| The manga version seem to be cutting out A LOT of stuff...since this anime follow the novel so this have a nice feel to it. Now they will be fighting those students council member huh. Stella is way too pure...she is just too cute. |
 |
| Well dropping this now, while it's fresh to see some romantic development for once the characters themself lack chemestry and feels forced/shallow? So far I couldn't give a single fuck about neither of the main two, which kinda hurt the show a lot for me as it seems to focus on the characters/romance. |
 |
| Nice Pool Episode :)) Stella best grill in fall season ? |

| Lmao. How deep in the friend-zone do you have to be (even though she's apparently his girlfriend) to play erotic VNs with your boyfriend as the main path of the game. Lots of funny moments, it's too bad they had to take an episode to sort this crap out, and they really let it flow in the end. I'm enjoying this anime more than I thought I would, which is saying a lot. 4/5 How can you go two weeks without even touching your partner though? That's so impossible and stupid that it made me dislike this silly plot-device. |

|
| Yeah, finally the pool episode, some differences from the LN but it's still good. Ikki and Stella are truly a great couple. I thinks the last couple of action, romance, fantasy animes was Kirito and Asuna. I'm really enjoying this series. |
  |
| -_- Any else think Stella is one of the most annoying characters seen in anime history? Ikki needs to find someone else or no one at all (and certainly not any of the girls seen so far)... |
 |
| Here is our beach...pool episode. LOL! Funny conversation/argument between those two at the end. Stella is cute and funny. Nice to see romance development unlike other anime. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 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. |
| Nice progressive episode. Disappointed 2 whole weeks and 4 fights have gone by though. NeoAnkara said: Loose haired Stella is > Twintailed Stella. This x10000. I actually found her attractive with that. |
 |
| So they had some relationship issues xD |
| Hi there |
| Like I said when all of the LN purists were getting their pants all in a bunch, that scene with Ikki owning those boys and getting all of those girls' attentions could have been easily added back Anyway, this episode was beautiful and I love how popular Ikki is now xD His fight/argument with Stella was too great and that kiss was too magical >//< Loved the setup with the student council as well as that talk that Stella had with the journalist dude xD And damn, Stella in dat swimsuit HNNNGGGGGG |
thumbs up. |
