ughh... 6/10

i know the voice acting was going to be bad from the PV but never imagine this bad, it's like they all channel Keanu Reaves or something.

though thank god they redesign the waffes, as much as i enjoy the series the original illustration and design was meh at best (it only got better recently)

bgm and animation was pretty good, nothing mind blowing but not shitty at the same time.

as for characters, meh all 4 main heroin has close no growth during the qualifiers so was never having high hope on them, and seriously lets be honest fans of the novel will only care about est and restia anyway.

p.s. to most people that complain about the show, if you guys oder shit and they serve you shit stop complaining that they didn't serve you fois gras!!

Wasn't exactly expecting much to begin with. Not sure if this is game or novel, but sure has the generic harem vn feel, insert plot.

Was nice seeing that the MC doesn't suck ass at talking to girls though.

Loved what I saw from the manga so far so I am definitely gonna to be looking forward to watching this every week. Its great to see Claire being her tsundere self and Kamito being a baller. Can't wait to see the rest of the cast make their appearances.

Liking the OP song by Hitomi Harada as well.

Oh boy this is actually pretty good hehe. I thought it would be completely like Zero no Tsukaima but instead its actually better in a sense that the main character doesn't seem completely helpless and under the tsundere's control. Whew. Hopefully we'll see more epic things come out next episode. The girls are sooo pretty. Hontoni kawaii desu *u*

Is every girl in this a bitch so far or what? And obsessed with making him their servants? Or just bossy to men?

Thank god KugiRie is not the flat girl again. Or it would have been dropped.

Still Claire has that annoying fat girl voice down.

Kamito could be cool, but it's gonna need to be less generic and the girls to turn down the bitchiness.

Standard first ep. Claire is just another tsundere character but probably more annoying than usual. She obviously couldn't tame that sword and now she wants him to be her slave just cos he did what she couldn't?! MC seems to be quite a boss when it comes to girls though and that's quite a rare sight.

This anime gives off a lot of Machine-Doll wa Kizutsukanai vibes especially with the MC dark/tragic past.
Looking forward to see some actual fight scenes.

As expected of the studio that animated DxD. They couldve at least tried at that fighting scene (1v1 one). The classroom scene was just awful at best.

I have read part of the manga and it was better then this.
The one thing i thought while watching all this is that i have seen it at least 40 times this anime seriously lacks originality it feels like everything in it is recycled.
It has all been done before.

Damn this show is so generic it hurts. Is it bad that I knew Claire would be a Tsundere before I even watched the show or knew what she looked like. Also please please no more Tsunderes, lastly can someone tell me If the MC ever becomes one of their contract slaves so I can drop this show now?

This anime gives off a lot of Machine-Doll wa Kizutsukanai vibes especially with the MC dark/tragic past.
Looking forward to see some actual fight scenes.

First off, you'll know why she's like that. Second, if this ever gets a second season, we'd get to know via Rinslet who Claire was before 'that' incident I said earlier. Third, she gets more lovable, less tsun, more dere, and even cuter as the story goes on. Fourth.......wait, do I have a fourth? hmmmmm........Anything more than this is already a spoiler. That's what I can say about Claire without having to use the spoiler tags.

Now then, the anime would get better, by the time Est, Restia, and Fianna arrive. Those epic morning troll scenes between Est and Kamito(not gonna specify what). Fianna's antics with Kamito, and Restia's............being her I guess? I mean, just her appearing would make things more interesting.

If I've got to specify which volumes(I prefer using the LN as it would cover more ground), it'd be like this:

Volume 1- Claire identity and part of Kamito's past(Ep. 1-4, unless they rush it to three episodes, which I doubt since the anime will cover volumes 1-3)
Volume 2- Fianna's introduction and more of Kamito's past.(Episode 5-8, I hope)
Volume 3- Ellis's Arc and again more of Kamito's past. Yep, I mean it.
Rinslet wouldn't be the main focus until Volume 13 since her past is has more mysteries in it.

I'll just put the future volumes as reference.

Volume 4- Introduction of Leonora Lancaster, Muir Alenstarl and 'Ren Ashbell' and even more of Kamito's past.
Volume 5- Est's Arc. That's all I can say or else it'd be a spoiler.
Volume 6-Introduction of Milla Bassett and we get a glimpse of the enemy's plans.
Volume 7- Revelation of who 'Ren Ashbell' is.(You could get what I mean if you read the novels.)
Volume 8-Leonora's arc/ the Fanservice arc. Although it gets a lot serious near the end. And we get more info about Greyworth and Kamito, and more about Claire and Rinslet's childhood.
Volume 9-Trust me when I say that this volume will end in a cliffhanger. (I myself had to re-read this volume and volumes 6-8 as I've only skimmed through them a bit. Was too excited for the latest volumes.)
Volume 10-Now this volume reveals to Claire who Ren Ashbell really is.(You'll know who at the end of volume 1 and the whole of volume 2.) And Kamito dual-wielding even better than Kirito.(sorry Kirito, your 'The Eclipse', a 27 hit skill got beaten by Kamito's Absolute Blade Arts- Bursting Blossom Spiral Blade Dance 37 consecutive Strikes by 10 hits.)
Volume 11-It has something to do with the Elemental Lords.
Volume 12-The Academy was attacked and more of Ellis.
Volume 13-Remember when I told you guys that this volume will tackle Rinslet's past? Not only did it tackle her past. The author did a great job in this volume to make up for the lack of Rinslet's background in previous volumes.
Volume 14-N/A(it's gonna be released on August 25, 2014)

First part felt rushed, i was worried about that.
Later was not bad, I liked the jokes he played on her and she cried (quite refreshing).
Kamito sure knows how to treat spoiled brats.

I didnt like the sword design as it just reeks "the sword used by the hero to kill demon king" but ya, it is a demon slayer.
I would prefer aa design that suits *spoiler*'s character.

How can people accept this kind of misogynistic bullshit?! More and more virgin's wish fulfilment and more overused boob/pervert jokes! WHAT ARE YPUR STANDARDS?!

Absolutely discraceful:
First, the opening fight looked like shit
Second, the following scene was the most generic bath peeking misunderstanding scene imaginable (+ pettanko joke is the pinnacle of comedy....)
Third, the girl was absolutely fucking generic and clumsy as shit for no reason. Tsunderes again and again.
Fourth, that engrish, yet again (Demon Slayer... talk japanese you hipsters)
Fifth, LOL I'm totally a capable and intependent woman... NOT. I need my newlyweds help to save me from the foe which I can't tame although I really, REALLY was certain I could.
Sixth, why do you need to make ALL of your female characters idiots when that is the majority of your cast?
Seventh, the comedy is outrageously facepalm worthy.

MC doesn't seem too bad, but no way am I watching this show any more. Loli tsun tsun. Check. Uninteresting fantasy setting. Check. Harem of obnoxious girls. Check. It's like all the thousands of other anime like it and it's already using all the same tropes. I didn't watch Dragonar because of the same reason and I won't watch this either.

Perhaps we have a sense of humor and don't need to try and find 'misogyny' in every piece of fanservice? Perhaps other people have opinions that differ from yours? An astounding concept, I know.

I didn't think it was that great but wasn't that bad either. So far I find the blue-haired tsundere more annoying than Claire, who seems like she's trying to be Zero Louise but missing the mark in sheer evil bitchiness. I'll probably watch the next episode or two to see if it's worth sticking with, Gods know I'm watching a ton of series and most of the tropes in this are replicated better elsewhere.

Also, red hair girl is annoying as fuck. Nothing special, nothing new, will watch this for the only fanservice then.

Read the manga, liked it.

Watching them animate the annoying Claire Rouge is friggin treat. Just like in the manga actually. The story itself is intriguing but will take some time to develop. This and next episode are pretty much fan service oriented to introduce all the girls at once, look forward to it I guess? Basically you get the Zero no Tsukaima feel with the girls, though it quickly ends up an Infinite Stratos situation (use your imagination). Besides all the pandering with the girls, the rest of the story/back story are interesting to watch. Typical shounen.

Next episode please! I wanna see them bring down that shabby house!

I'm not sure how Gary Stu is defined but the MC does need some help and effort to defeat others though i don't think he's ever lost(?). At least he's better than kirito or tatsuya.

What the hell was with those ungrateful people? Kamito saves someone life, but all he gets is "Pervert"

Anyways, I wasn't gonna stick with it, but I think I will give it a chance because Kamito is a very refreshing lead, first time seeing a guy pinning the girl against a wall in harem. Claire, though the annoying type, can be adorable at times. Some of the scenes very were entertaining.

7/10 I will give it a few more episodes.

If the rest of the anime is like episode 1, this series needs badly the "femdom" tag in the genres description and I am not complaining, will watch more, it is funny how all girls that have said more than one line of dialogue want to make Kamito their slave (and he keeps escaping).
