Omg, that was so bad...
Juuou Mujin = Infinite Stratos + Fairy Tail (ecchi, dragon things...) + shitty animation
The dragons and the powers looks so bad.
Kirito is the master of shitty harem this season.

I actually was pleasantly surprise by this, especially the opening. I expected it to be as bad as Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance but I found it way more enjoyable.
Maybe it's because Seirei was the first one I saw which was a fantasy school anime.

Again with the big monsters and the girls fighting them. MC was pretty predictable to be honest. He doesn't look at the slightest to be interesting. This is surely a harem so they should put the tag in later. Dragons? Seriously? They need to really put up a more interesting plot and interesting characters than that.


I mean, it isn't a harem yet. But yeah, probably heading that way. That said, if by some miracle the main pairing is the only pairing... I mean, MAL doesn't label the source material as a harem, though wikipedia does. Make what you want of that.

I love he Opening and Ending. everything is lame. Totally a copy of sword dance. Monsters like Black bullet. Naked scene OMG STOP! Also like freezing with the monsters i guess. I like Dragons, but this makes me cry.

He should just use his D on all the girl... Sorry, the usage of the the phrase "D", couldn't help it.

Anyways, probably the most boring of the typical highschool insert magic/harem light novel adaptions this season.

And oh god, they CGI'd the weapons. The monsters I don't really care but the weapons too? Meh.

I'm going to try to enjoy this, but I doubt I will.

Something that annoys me though is main male characters who never explain misunderstandings and instead repeat "That was... that was..." or "Just a second..." or "No, I, uh..." etc., instead of simply, I don't know, explaining what happened? Not to mention my eyes nearly rolled to the back of my head when the main character got on top of the girl at the beginning when she began to panic.

I don't know, this show seems to be all sorts of generic.
Insert philosophical quote or exceptional picture here.

Very "meh". Uninteresting story, another school anime, possible over used harem canon. For some reason the screen turns darker when something flashy is about to happen, I confirmed it is not my screen derping so, why do they do that?

I will watch 2-3 more episodes to see if it is worth it.

Bad bad bad. Seems a mix between IS and Date a Live which is a really bad thing.

curious as to whether or not Mononobe-Kun will get to be at least a little BA though....


He probably already is. In the beginning, you see a flashback (presumably) of what looks like his little sister and him when they were young. He steps up towards one of those dragons, green light aaand...obviously he and his sister are still alive. Guess we'll see later.

Generic harem series overall...but main lead isn't the typical, annoying tsundere. Meh...better than nothing.

Lets see if this anime can do the Infinite Stratos game better. Too many harem leads done by Kirito's VA, but it's whatever for me. As long as the MC isn't as useless as the one in Infinite Stratos I think I should be happy with it.

Looks like generic magical harem anime in which there is only 1 "real" guy (a la Tsukai no Blade Dance, ZnT, Mashiroiro).

Oh well. Action looks alright, and main girl being ditzy character = win. Will stick around

First ep was pretty good.

Art was good. Idk who the hell is saying it's bad, you must be blind or delusional.

Didn't feel too rushed either. Basically introduced the harem girls and gave an info dump on the basics of how their powers work.

I was a bit worried that this show was going to be put on the backburner by Diomedia and completely overshadowed by KanColle, but they didn't cut back on production values or anything, which is nice.

It's funny. The ecchi harem action show I was most hyped for this season was Absolute Duo. I just happened to pick Fafnir and the other ones up just by chance. And Duo turned out to be the shittiest one so far. Worst art (despite how a ton of delusional retards say otherwise), super rushed story etc.

Meanwhile Testament, Fafnir, and World Break were all wayyy better. Hopefully all these shows keep up the good work for the rest of the reason.

It was not awful but this looks to be pretty cookie cutter imo. But, it wasn't bad enough to make me rage like absolute duo. Give it a another go or two.

At the very least it was drawn well and the origin of this universes magic is an interesting enough idea to roll with. It doesn't scream juvenile which is the feeling I'm left with sometimes when I see how a universe describes their magic.

I hope the battles (if any of significance) aren't completely lame. But this will be less about that anyway. The girls. Not in love with anyone right off the bat. Imouto-san is cute and Oppai-san is kinda annoying. Will see how the cast fleshes out but characters make or break a show (this genre more so then others).

This is actually true

The anime itself is just as you'd expect from this kind of LN adaption though not as annoying as usual. Let's hope this doesn't turn into Trinity Seven. The casts are stellar though for such an average show.

This. Is exactly what I wanted to say.
With all these girls getting the good stuff. Sure it would be cool if the guys had em like that but that would always present some problem. Men > Girls. that would always present problems if you know what im getting at. Also having the guys turn into something like Mahou Shounen like a certain anime this season also does not sit right lol. Damn we need something new and I mean SOMETHING new.
What that aside. The animation was above average, it is better than bladedance imo. The translation was ok not great but not bad. Apart for the godforsakenly generic storyline with a little twist.
>Only Male MC to have the power
>Goes to all girl school cause he has power too
>Meets naked girl taking bath
>Gets branded pervert/beast
>And ofc you gotta have that one girl who goes " I don't approve of you!" who later falls madly inlove with mc become best girl.
What am I missing... hmmm oh yeah!
> MC has some hidden ultimate power.
The Art of Shipping is no mere game. It can be small skirmishes to huge nation size wars.
Of course some will claim their ship is the BATTLESHIP but they all do. This is why battles occur because of factions fighting each other to justify their favourite ship.
And thus SHIP to SHIP combat occurs almost anytime even now.
Beware, Threading into the Shipping battlefield will be bloody.... What are you waiting for?

I liked this episode.
It's not an original premise, but the enjoyment is high nonetheless.

It feels like a lot will happen next episode. The preview wasn't subbed though, so that's a bit disappointing.

Diomedia (I am fairly certain I spelled this wrong) is sure animating a lot of shows this season.

Generic, mediocre whatever - a story riddled from the first episode with misunderstandings, a standard doormat MC, and this blonde hoe acting all tough but obviously wanting the D. They'll all be D sleeves within a couple of episodes.

Well this (only watched first episode atm) is definitely much better than Absolute Duo (also haven't watch the 2nd) IS (completed except OVA), and Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance (dropped after 2/3 episodes). Much better. Both op and ed songs are better than the other three I mentioned. The pace isn't bad, compared with the other three. The MC so far looked ordinary and not OP unlike the other two (yes I think it's only two for this field). Tbh this show exceeded my low expectation and I'm enjoying it.

How early is not evil but even so exhilarating as to leave a good impression.
Plot that traces situations already seen in the past.
Narration usable, even very stupid, but I had some déjà vu.
The drawings are discrete, they remind me a lot of the TV series Ebiten.
Opening and ending cute but nothing more.
