Well they also showed the faces of the next enemies from Vol. 4 and 5 ;-)

But still that ending; I only read till the end of Vol. 3 and afterwards I had a strong hunch that she might be one but to think that the anime just casually spoiled parts of the next 3 Volumes made my jaw drop xD

Pretty satisfied with this. Was expecting a cliffhanger anyway so that didn't bother me... Too much.
When sora mentioned the truth of the 16 pieces, whats beyond that horizon? That already got me wanting to read the novel. :D

To answer your question, Maximus: "Yes, I was entertained." And that is all that matters.

Super ragey and an exciting way to end this very entertaining first season. It was obvious that Steph was going to save the day but it was cool how they did it. The prediction and planning abilities of Sora and Shiro got a bit insane at the end, but this show isn't about realism anyway. Loved the short intro about Old Deus but it is not too crazy of a cliffhanger as some people are saying (as long as we get dat Season 2).

It was a great show and Madhouse delivered as they usually do (minus Mahouka but I don't think anyone could have saved that mess). A very solid 8/10 for me although I am a sucker for fanservice and otaku references. Its score on MAL is pretty egregious right now but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. At least I got on the bandwagon from the first episode! Enjoy it for what it is people. Season 2 please because I need mo' Jibril.

Some probably saw Steph coming and saving the day but the way the NPCs movement were predicted is quite something. It's been a while since I've had this much fun while watching an anime, I really needed something like this 9/10

Just absolutely wonderful.

Never thought Steph would end up saving the day. Miko is one foxy lady. That coin toss was so NGNL. That damn cliffhanger. So what's the one thing that all shrine priestess have? It's a god or a spirit right? Right? I don't want to wait two years to find out :(

10/10 for me. It was a really fun ride. Best anime this season imo. So now I guess it time to go read the light novels.

Where did this end in the LN? I have to start reading it now. Also, should I start from where the anime left off or should I start from the beginning?

Blood destruction, to overcome physical limits!
Steph got the last shot! The wisdom to predict the future.
Can't believe that they completely absorbed the Eastern Federation completely!
The war beast (Sora's harem ^^) no longer able to protect themselves would join.
Challenging the Old Deus next... the day where the great chess game would come. >.< Can't even start imagining it.
Really enjoyable series!!! Loved the characters, laughing and smiling was like 2nd nature!

Well I would recommend you to read the last chapter of Vol. 3, too, otherwise you will be very confused by the beginning of the next Volume ;-)

Great ep :D I don't know why they did that at the end O_o?! With #1 but oh well, I'm sure S2 is gonna be coming someday. Dem cameo's for Plum and others :3

Absolutely loved the OST <3 Can't wait til it's out ^^

The end of the game was nice. Man I loved Izuna's Bad Blood! Looked BA and OP!
But Keikaku Dori by Kuuhaku having Steph be useful lol XD

Izuna's smile was cute <3 And Dat bath scene with loli yuri :3

Ofc Sora won't do anything to cause the girls of his new paradise suffer XD
Kemonomimi FTW <3

I cannot unsee Ino <_<

Loved the confrontation with Miko. Love her voice :3
Dat coin toss!!! And her using her ability to predict the coins fall O_O XD
Sora really is such a troll XD Gaining the Eastern Federation to his side and tricking the elves so that they can be an easy target later on XD

Also loved blushing Miko when she said "Do I have to say it, Meanie" :3

9.5/10 with 9 on MAL but if a S2 is announced I'll change to 10 ^^
And wow! Totally didn't expect it to be that high at the end O_O 26th?! It might even go a bit up too :O

I would have much preferred if they didn't bring the Old Gods to the table yet...
The Novel ended with Sora and Shiro wanting to get touchy-feely with Miko, then after a rejection decided to hook up at Izuna's. Which goes into V4 oh so nicely.
Now the continuity is in danger... And I do mean that. Unless the author has some batshit crazy master plan to salvage the ending, and lead the story back to the Vampire issue (Volume 4 material).

But then again, this might be a cleverly devised way to make the demands for Season 2 more vocal.

And yeah, All shirne maidens have a god they worship/service.


EDIT:
Also, I'm half-expecting the score to drop, considering how touchy some people are about endings.
And anyone planning on picking up the novels after the anime, read it from Vol3's last 2 chapters (not counting the Afterword), otherwise, you'll be in a world of confusion. Though I personally would recommend reading the whole thing, since there were just so many goodies the anime cut, in my opinion.

It's over dam... This is actually pretty sad... cause Madhouse won't be animating anymore decent anime with action in the summer x.x.... and don't recommend Mahouka i swear to god.....
This episode was actually pretty dam good, the master plan was executed PERFECTLY and i can't really find faults with it :3.
Still cant get rid of the past showing of the other episodes and a cliff-hanger to boot x.x, so if this doesn't get a 2nd season i'm going to laugh my ass off lol.
Well in the end Shiro and Sora didn't fuck so that's a huge HUGE DISAPPOINT so,this is a pretty solid 4/10 hoping for a 2nd season cause i love Sora.

Actually by the end of the 3rd Volume I already guessed she would either be an Old Deus herself or close to one; because if you think about it: In a mere 50 years, ONE person changed the technology of a whole country, let them jump over the Industrial Revolution, into the IT age and over our current technological advance?

That is just impossible! We took over 120 years from the start of the Industrial Revolution till where we are now and we still don't have anything like a Virtual Reality Device.

I like that Steph got to actually contribute something in the end, but other than that just kind of eh.....probably just not nearly otaku enough to have ever gotten really into this show.

Probably one of the most hyped up shows as it was airing (at least on MAL) that I've seen in a while that I just did not get into as much as most of the internet seemed to. Obviously it was entertaining enough to keep watching and had it's moments, but I'm never a big fan of what I see as substituting an actual premise (games, strategy, winning against seemingly impossible odds using your wits) for fanservice and otaku wank gag comedy. The show just did not handle the logic of it's game aspect (Issues like the whole Chess match and checkmate situation where Shiro should have clearly already lost being the most egregious example, but just in general) well even if it knew how to make it's games look as flashy as possibly thanks to the animation team at Madhouse which really did put in a strong effort. Despite said effort the show seemed to be more concerned with showing me the female characters T&A then actually building it's universe and characters in an interesting and engrossing way. The best moments of the show were also always the ones that had the least to do with the main characters who I both found incredibly obnoxious though perhaps less so as the series was nearing it's end. Just did not find Sora's loudmouth cool kid voice acting and general personality enjoyable at all and Shiro with her whispery waif voice might as well not even have been there for as much as she contributed most of the series despite the show trying to beat into the viewer how it's all about the two working together that makes them invincible.

Really can't think of much else to say, this show was just kind of a trifle that barely made the cut for me this season even though it did, but it must have done something right to make me not want to drop it flat out and stick with it. If there's a second season I doubt I'd be interested knowing what I know now about how poorly it uses it's game premise, but I can't say the experience of watching this has entirely been a waste of my time which is more than I can say from some shows. A 5/10 seems plenty reasonable for what this show gave me and where it fell short.
