| definitely one of the best fanservice episodes ever... ALL HAIL MISAKI KUREHITO (favorite artist lol) |
 |
| Utaha-senpai still awesome as ever!! credits to Kato for spoiling her plan though.. haha |
 |
| Pretty good and interesting way how to remind us of everything from previous season in just one ep. And lots of fanservice too! Definitely great start of S2! |
| Absolutely fantastic. Utaha is just as amazing as I remember. Top tier best girl material right there. I expect great things from this show. |
 |
| It feels like it's been forever since last season. But, this was much like episode 0 from last time, good start. |
 |
| Yay a reminder why Utaha is best gurl, can't wait till s2 starts! |
My Queens  |
| Utaha-senpai, the goddess, is back! The dinner was definitely the best scene. When she had that jokersmile, I knew that some good things are going to happen. The only thing that I can't understand is why would you hate it when Utaha rubs her feet on you? I would be overjoyed! :D |
| The glorious return of Katou Megumi. I am pleased. I hope S2 will have way more of her. |
 |
| She says the only people who would sit there and find faults in someone's hard work are pathetic losers who have forgotten how to enjoy life, but what if that is how they enjoy life. I certainly love seeing all the failures and mistakes people make in their hard work, and I love it when people are able to point out the flaws in my own. Anyways, that has nothing to do with my opinion of the anime itself, which is why I'm here. I felt off upon realizing this anime was getting a second season. I watched the first and remembered enjoying it somewhat quite a while ago, though not much. So when I heard of a second season, I figured I'd re-watch some of it to refresh my memories a bit... couldn't do it. Could not watch this again, for some reason, I just could not bring myself to sit through the first season a second time. Not a single episode. I couldn't bring myself to care about any of these people at all, no matter how hard I tried for some reason. The only reason I even watched this episode 0 was purely out of curiosity as to what the heck they could even spend their time doing in a second season. So I forced myself to sit through this fan-servicey mess of an anime. To my surprise, for some reason, I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. But that just left me confused, because I don't know what I enjoyed about this. I mean, I ain't even into all the fan-service and stuff, but that was practically all there was here. Girl couldn't even play a guitar without the camera going between her legs. Though admittedly it was pretty good fan service, and the art style is pretty tops so that enhances it. Anyway, the characters just seem... kind of boring for the most part to me, aside from the blond girl, I do kind of like her, shes pretty funny. But that's all this anime has... Its at times like this where I really start to wonder, "How did my standards become so low? When did I become able to tolerate trash like this"... But then again, I enjoyed Big Order (for the wrong reasons I might add) and Qualidea Code so whatever, this is fine. Anyway, I guess I'm sticking around for this, at least until I get bored of this. Just felt like sharing some of my thoughts or whatever. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| What the hell did I just watch? I will admit that I wasn't the biggest fan of S1; it was self-aware garbage that was saved by Utaha, good aesthetics, and a few cool moments, but this? I'm done. Excessive fanservice, Aki turning back into a generic LN protagonist without being policed this time, Utaha's degradation as a character, the cast in general, and animation levels dropping yield a season that's probably going to be worse than S1. Good riddance, Saekano. 3/10. |
| I'm just confused by the whole concept of scoring by "Writing and characters." If you're not entertained, why should you care? |
| Damn you Tomoya! I'm so envious of you!...why is it almost all the girls are flocking to an otaku!? an otaku who love 2D more than 3D!!! aaarrrgghhh!!! 5/5. |
 |
| been waiting for S2 wondering why it started in the middle of the month only to find this OVA! fanservice was overkill but it was very much like the First one didn't remember the girls being this aggressive i'm okay with this since i missed them mainly Megumi |
 |
| This was as good as the first season's special, I liked it. |
| Great recap start to the second season :) ... and whoever doesn't like it can simply kiss my butt and shoo off wherever, you won't be missed (I'm with Eri there) Though I've resigned myself to both envying and hating Tomoya for being so utterly unappreciative. Because no matter what the fans may want - this is the Katou path. As much as Utaha is deserving of it. |
| Saekano is back with your typical fan service ep 0 |
 |
| Utaha is a bit too quick to give up on her sexual advances, but Eriri doesn't even compete at this point. |
| Well it is an OVA, so I expect nothing from this. This episode is a fan-service episode, with 5 6 of the gang members go to a hotel. Animation is gorgeous as usual. Some naughty shots of each heroine but Utaha-senpai is still the best after all( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Nothing to expect from this OVA, but it is refreshing to see the gangs back. |
 |
| Those were some delicious camera angles and plenty of variety. Nice to hear Yasuno Kiyono's voice as Megumi again. Her extremely lax tone was refreshing to hear. And always nice to see Utaha teasing, my favorite kind of female character. |
| Damn, I laughed more than in the whole previous season combined. Hope it stays the same! |
 |
| Omg those posters in this room 😍 |
| From what I've seen, Utaha is that playful teasing girl who will get what she wants when she wants, in this case Tomoya. Loved the reaction she made when Megumi called Tomoya towards the end. Megumi imo the sexiest of the group, although props to Michiru for her many advances with Tomoya. The girl has game, love that playful side from Michiru. And Utaha with that CPR scene, like wow she's wasting no time lol 8/10 Very fun start to the season. |
 |
| well, that was just straight up soft porn. the consecutive crotch shots were hard to sit through. I kind of regret watching this episode. I find it kind of disturbing that Utaha is continuously trying to RAPE the MC. I really would like to get some justification for why Tomoya doesn't confront Utaha about her actions. Is he ignoring her attempts at seducing him because he's concerned for the circle, or because he doesn't like her, or what the shit. i.e. we could have some real character development(!) instead of doing the same shit over and over again. |

| Oh yeah, that's right. Utaha best girl. How could I have forgotten? |
Kayzeee said: hoopla123 said: Trust me, Aki is as autistic as a MC can get (god I fucking hate this MC). But he is a very well written character. If the anime adapts the LNs correctly, you'll see what I mean. OT: Utaha sama heals my soul. Man this season 2 is gonna be one hell of a wild ride. As a LN reader, can't wait to see all the reactions in the later half of the season (assuming they adapt to Volume 7 which they will). Where do you read the LN of Saekano? If you are asking where it is translated in English, it isn't. |
| As I noticed "Service" in the title, I immediately decided to watch it. The show didn't disappoint, the episode featured some of the most glorious fanservice shots I have seen, at least recently. Curiously enough, the use of those suggestive shots felt really clever, as opposed to some other examples. The episode also worked as a fine lead-in tale, despite the fact that I had already seen the first episode of the second season. Utaha's ruse was also quite charming, she is definitely resourceful. |
| 5hngggg/5 Wow that was top tier service.  ^ 3 best-girls LOL Izumi's hand is red/hurt. |
  |
| Great fanservice episode and long live to Katou! |
| A good special episode. Lots of fanservice. Katou looked so dead with those eyes. Utaha was great and Michiru didn't waste anytime. Though Katou is still the best girl. At least Izumi got her revenge.  |
 |
| I had forgotten how aggressive Utaha can be. |
| The fan service that we all have been waiting for, Utaha-senpai looks fabulous as usual |
 |
| That sure was quite ecchi! I wonder what the actual series has to offer though! |
 |
| I, as a fan, was not thoroughly served. |
 |
| Maybe you want to watch... AMV Cherish You - Sayuri Yahagi (OST Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata - Insert Song) With Lyrics https://youtu.be/SOoYYtyrSag |
| Wow, Utaha was so playful and sexy in her scene with Tomoya! Much sexier than the pool scene with the more obvious fanservice if you ask me. Eriri's rivalry with Izumi was funny. Looks like Megumi is evolving from boring bland girl to deadpan snarker. Not bad! Speaking of Megumi, Michiru's theme for the hero and the heroine played as the Tomoya x Megumi scene background music. What a "coincidence", isn't it? These two look more like a couple the more time passes. Decent episode. It was better than S1's episode 0, in my opinion. Now let's see what S2 has to offer. |
 |
| Mahouka poster spotted!! And cheer to a great FS-y episode, now I'm fulfilled to get my ticket to season II |
 |
| What a great fanservice way to get ready for the new season :33 |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| BOOBS, BOOBS everywhere. ::D |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| This OVA just reminded me why Michiru is one chill, cool mothertrucker. She just chillin' lol. But damn, Utaha. You're gonna give a fella an eyegasm <33  |
| Daaaaaaamn, that was some high-quality fanservice this episode. Michiru by far still best girl, plays guitar and is hella lewd. Great start into the new season. |
| Kato was op on first season , now she know the girls and its worse lol poor utaha couldnt start a thing , poor eriri geting aimed all the time , gj katou She still didnt find a counter for michiru xb |
Loli world is just a cute world full of cute meat |
| I don't even remember what this show is about. It's been too long since I've seen the first season. I was just trying to look for some ecchi shows cause it's been a while then I saw this one who has a good score then I realized this is the sequel. And this episode 0 tells me nothing. Should've had at least like a 5 minute recap or something |
 |
| Utaha-senpai's attempt to get Tomoya to spend the night in the same room with her was so awesome. She was hot there. I preferred that over her swimsuit, honestly. So classy, elegant, and had that "ara-ara" feel lol But Megumi was the best here. She was cute, pretty, beautiful, and sexy in different parts of the episode. She was sexy and cute in her swimsuit, cute basically throughout (her smile damn), and finally that scene on the bridge (?), when Tomoya said 'Main Heroine', she was so beautiful. Can't wait to finally watch this series again! |
