Plot consistency and logic are not some of the show's strong points.


She didn't know the rule that while enrolled, she has diplomatic immunity from her country. France can't touch her while she's there.

Actually they explained this already in another episode, when Charlotte is in the school she cannot be taken back until she's finished

Interesting episode, made me love Charlotte even more.
Laura is an interesting character, at first I thought she was just an anal b*tch.

The fighting was done pretty well IMO. The ending just came out of no where though (not a bad thing). The kiss and husband lines were completely unexpected and the faces of the other girls were...how to put it...AWESOME! This show can make me laugh and cry (not from sadness) and still keep me coming back next week. On that note the beach episode is up next.

So much shoved into one episode. Mind blow. O_O

While it is one of the better episodes there are still a few perks about it. :/

Random kiss is random. And LOL, Ichika is the waifu? Sounds about right.

New addition to the harem and an obligatory beach episode. Predictable, but I'll keep watching because there's only a month left.

I was like SCORE! when Bodewig kissed Ichika
Also enjoyed seeing younger Chifuyu-nee(however you spell the sister)
and I the bath scene made me think Charlotte grabbed something to get Ichika's attention >.>
I won't lie, I liked this episode, Big Fight plus Harem qualities to finish the episode^^
Although I for some reason dislike Charles becoming Charlotte >.>

The episode was great, seeing how things went for the battle which was really cool and the way Charlotte got another advantage over the other girls, only to be beaten by Laura with her kiss.

This keeps getting lamer and lamer. Everything was predictable as hell. Laura getting owned, despite being uber powerful last episode; Laura getting some ultra power up at the last second due to "will-power"; Laura's tragic past immediately revealed right before getting owned; Ichika pwning the new uber Laura as if she were nothing; Laura joining the harem... *sighs*

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

OMG at Charles Shield Pierce.
Not only does it impale the victim, but also fires continuous shots energy into the body. It's pretty much like Alteisen's "Revolving Stake."

That bath scene of Charlotte X Ichika was win. Lucky bastard, having a naked girl hug him with her breasts pressing against him. But I thought she only wanted only Ichika to call her by her real name. Next day, they had to revel her true gender and....(priceless reaction from the whole class.)

This show is utter shit. I can't take it anymore! I was gonna write a huge summary of the whole series now but I might do It when it ends. Why did I have hope in this series to be something to improve the future of anime. I was asking to much. My hope for the show dropped after episode 4. Okay on the episode 8 pros and cons:

PROS

- Charlotte in general (Yeah, that's it! You thought there would be more good things about the show?)


CONS

- Houki uselessness even in an IS: She is REALLY a waste of screentime.
- Laura's weak cliche backstory: (I actually didn't care and wanted to play Marvel vs Capcom 3 out of boredom)
- Ichika's dumbass pride: (WHO THE FUCK CARES IF THE "IS" IS COPYING ONE OF YOUR SISTERS MOVES. THINK BEFORE YOU ACT, YOU FUCKIN' DUMBASS!! IT'S CALLED STRATEGY?! YOU FORGOT THAT?!
-Chifuyu: You know you could help your brother sometimes when he IS in danger like you did in episode 7. I want to know why she has a stick up her ass all the time. Let me guess, she had to save her dumbass brother from being kidnapped and forfeit the tournament. Then her reputation got ruined. I BET THEY ARE GONNA SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
-Tournaments: HOW MANY FREAKIN' TOURNAMENTS ARE THERE?! How can the government fund all these tournaments? Why aren't the rest of the girls participating? All the money that could've been used to save lives, feed starving people around the world, find a cure for cancer, and use it to benefit the world. Instead, they use it on A FUCKIN' TOURNAMENT WHERE IT'S A GRUDGE MATCH BETWEEN THE LEAD AND HIS HAREM!!! (facepalm)
-Academy Girls- They are annoying. But, I never imagined they were stupid. REALLY STUPID. As in episode 5 they were all smitten for Charlotte because she was disguised as a male. Nobody questioned that ONLY THERE OWN SEX CAN PILOT THE MECHS BUT ICHIKA IS THE ONLY EXCEPTION. Nobody wondered if anything is strange or researched about another male pilot. Not even Yamada-sensei cared. Chifuyu should've known from the get-go as well. If she didn't know about the logic that females can only pilot IS and not question that either, than I hate to say that she's fuckin' idiotic as her brother. Then when Charlotte came in her girl uniform, all the girls were shocked that she was actually one of them. Then, they were like "Oh, I knew they was something fishy," "So there isn't another Male pilot." NO, IT'S CAUSE YOU ALL ARE AIRHEAD BITCHES WHO DON'T GIVE A SHIT!!
-Houki again: I felt when she slapped Ichika, it was necessary and that she actually got 1/2 point for doing SMART thing. But, when she got yandere by that punch and kick, I became appalled. She really went to far. Point taken away and she needs to die from being a useless bitch. I hate her on the same level as Rin.
-Rin: SHE'S GOT SERIOUS ISSUES? She actually attempted murder not ONCE but TWICE in the series. She even sank to a new low by busting through the walls with her IS to KILL Ichika. She's needs to go to a mental Institute.
Laura: Huh? You fell in love with him just like that? She's up there with Cecelia. And being a "wife" and forced kiss. OH, now I get it. Laura+Tskiumi (Sekirei)= Marina Inoue!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHaaaaaa........FUCK THIS SHOW!
-Charlotte revealing here sex to the class: She should've kept it up a bit longer. It was too soon to reveal that. She had Ichika all to herself. WHY CHAR WHY? Now the competetion is gonna be hard for you.


I don't need to give anymore about this show. I felt sorry for Ichika when he got tsundere punched and kicked by Houki that I felt like I got the the same treatment by this show. Just that I get hit in the stomach and then someone hits me with a shovel from behind. Charlotte earns points for being bad-ass, very useful, and pretty cute at the same time. Why such a character like her has to be in this show. The preview made me want to commit suicide. I KNEW there was gonna be a beach episode but I was in denial because of giving I was giving it a chance. So, the inevatable beach episode has arrived. Actually , I don't care FUCK THIS SHOW. That is all I can say. Even when you turn your brain off, it's still insulting to your being. Even with Charlotte this show is beyond saving in the direction it is going. This is show is so awful it makes me want to go turn and watch a lot of Shoujo Harem. Next week, I'm gonna play the Harem drinking game in the beach episode. Why are people attracted to this stuff? I don't understand.

Not only did Laura kiss him, she proclaimed that he will be her HUSBAND (Total reversal in nature)


Sigh... Totally expected, yet disappointed. Laura will now be Cecilia 2.0. We must have pairs! Pairs of childhood friends! Pairs of girls that once hated him and now adore him! Pairs of tsundere girls (Houki and Fang)! Each IS has a pair of arms and legs! The title of the anime is a letter pair. Man those are a nice pair! Did I mention the childhood friends pair?

Charlotte continues to be awesome.
The rest of the cast continues to be forgettable.

--- Warning: Incoming rant/ending speculation ---


wow, I believe u just pointed out a handful of this show's cliches in this post
and that prediction seems like the kind of cliche ending this show will likely conclude with, except for the part after the weird IS is defeated.
allow we to pint out another cliche: new girl meets idiotic male lead who just wants to be friends and protect everyone. new girl meets said idiot and hates him right off the bat due to some harsh past events. idiot defeats new girl despite a huge difference in experience and saves her. new girl falls in love with idiot and joins the harem.

this show won't get points for originality :

and Laura swoops in to steal the coveted first kiss!

Damn Charlotte moves in for the kill pretty fast, well of course not as fast as Boudwig who has told Ichikia he will be her wife lolz

I hope the next episode isn't too much just only fanservice, if it is Ichika better get some

Hahahahaha....I could not stop laughing. I don't even know what to say about Laura at the end. What a change in character. This is why I still watch harems...It's just so hilarious.

The only thing about harems though is that the relationships don't really go anywhere (except for a select few shows).

They just had to go and get in as much fanservice as possible before the end of the show, too. "Oh shit, we spent all that time on the battle in our MECHA anime... think we can sqeeze in a bath with Charlotte? Yeah, let's do that."
"Oh no, what a terrrrrrrible thing to do."

Yes, I dropped the part of you complaining about Laura. That scene was silly, but I enjoyed watching Charlotte and Ichika get closer.
