I expected less. But I really liked the 1st episode. Reminded me a bit of Punch Line (already 2 other users compare it to Punch Line in the recommendations).

The fanservice is okay. Yes they have to undress others. But it feels like the focus is more on action and the interaction between the male main and the other female main chars instead of fanservice.

Let's see if there is some plot. I heard the story they are doing is anime original (only setting same/similar to the games) which might not be a bad idea. Looking forward to episode 2.

At first I thought this was going to be lame but I kept watching and at the end it got a lot better. Defiantly love the MC, he isn't afraid to see a girl in her bare essentials ;)
Dubbed anime is the best because you can wank without reading ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

lol, i think myself this anime is really fun to watch. not really that many cliche either imo. it's fun, and it has a pretty cool fight scenes tbh. the scene which she got beaten up until she looked like that, tbh i didn't expect that they would make it that far. so, i think it has a really good animation. or more like catchy.

looking foward to the next episode xD

I feel like they took off everything but the setting, the concept, and some of the character types from the games. It's still stripping clothes off to defeat opponents, as well as in Akihabara. The MC is still a major otaku, there's still a little sister, and there's a girl who's foreign.

Honestly, I get it if you were looking for a fun show. It's alright, although I think it's pretty bland. I feel like people are looking at it the same way people looked at Mayoiga (as a satirical comedy). Sure, it could potentially just know it's dumb and is playing off that, but I honestly don't think they're executing it well at all.

But in terms of quality, it's really lacking. I'm not a fan of the art, sound (other than some of the VAs), and only barely for the animation. There are some scenes where it pops at you as good, but that's about it. Action-wise, I suppose those scenes were alright. The art seemed like a wannabe Trigger that also wanted to be original. Glowing hair really doesn't bother me. It's to differentiate the people with powers I guess. I hope. Sound felt awkward for me. The plot seems really bad. MC is pretty much a chunni who just had his dream come true, which is fine, but to be real, a chunni who had their dream come true wouldn't be so accepting. Foreign girl was just bad...especially in the dub. Too much mois. If I were to say anything to be the reason to keep watching, it'd be just to see how stupid it could get. It's a show made for fun, not quality obviously, but it should still be good with everything else too...

Unless I'm looking at this in the wrong perspective, I really can't believe how many people actually like the show. It really just baffles me how well-received it was. But opinions are opinions I guess...

I really enjoyed this!
The first half was very nice to watch because of Akihabara. The city was well presented and also the MC's preference for plastic figures.
The pacing was great (felt like 5 minutes) and I liked the action in the 2nd half.

I mean, look at these moves:

As much as it was not meant to be taken seriously, kinda don't think it was silly enough, after just watching Keijo I just couldn't get into it. I donno. Maybe it isn't lewd enough for me. I watch a lot of hentai and this just wasn't worth my time crossing the bridge to watch an ecchi. Keijo on the other hand was.

I am just going to wait a while... I am too sad about being pretty much done with Keijo I think. Post show depression getting to me. And I always watch these shows dubbed... and welp, the dub sucks. Which means I am going to have to rewatch subbed. ug. not fun at all.

If they're weak to air why are some of them wearing such skimpy clothes?

Low expectations comfortably exceeded.

I don't get why this show is rated so low right now. Despite the heavy fan service I was entertained and looking forward to the next episode as well!

Oh wow, someone else recognised the song!

I had to pause the episode every time Arisa appeared because I just knew that it was a song that I've heard before, but couldn't put the finger on what it was until the café, probably.

OP quite catchy, ed ok.
More gore than i thought. wow Mayo even gets stabbed & face punched, kinda rare for female mc just on ep1. Cool action choreography & perspectives.
Mc bit like Bloodlad mc, like his chunni talk too. Some cliches but overall funny, & quite fast paced.
Scary fork on her forehead... zombies?
Already a kiss & hand hold, oh they're fast.

The popularity of Takahashi Rie is still skyrocketing!
It been a long time since I've heard of Ishihara Kaori! and OP of YuiKaori duo was good also.
The actions scene are quite awesome despite the char design.
Dat was so many kisses of revival with injecting superpowers! lol

This anime series, is so weird that it could also become something interesting in the long run. For now, I enjoyed the craziness that flooded all the time the narrative. The pair violent scenes with others who did not fit in that context, in a way I liked. The soundtrack, was catchy. Drawings and animations, seem appropriate to what we have seen.

Every OTAKUS wet dream Wifu


I have a prediction. Big Bouncy Blonde (B3) is going to be related to red hair in some way. Anime logic dictates that if their eyes match, they have to be related in some way.

Also, she tells him that that the girl stripped her when she caught up to her, appologized and ran off. I feel like that's a lie. The bat doesn't seem like the type to appologize after a hunt. I think she out ran her. Not to mention she's just as strong as red so she's got to be one of them. What ever they are.

At the beginning I was kinda worried this would turn out into your obvious chuuni fantasy but by the end I was kinda hook to the characters.

Can say I'm in because of Arisu, she's precisous :D But even his sister or Mayo seems likeable.
Wonder what secret she meant but enemies calling her traitor she's probably one of them zombies too and main hero now too.
Which means the can't lose their clothes too, right?

Quite a different anime than what I was expecting from this first episode at least.
It was quite intense actually, and melodramatic with that kind of ending.

But well I wonder what will happen next with all what went on in this episode.

I was banking on a take with original characters would've provided something unique to differentiate itself from the game to save myself from watching an abridged adaptation. This was terrible. Annoying characters, forced humor that attempts to emulate Kill la Kill, and hideous, unappealing art. This is what happens when I try to give GONZO another chance. One episode is all I can endure of this.

That was actually quite a bit better than I thought it would be. A lot of people will score it lower simply because of the ecchi angle, but I kinda liked it.

I enjoyed this first episode a lot; it captures the same wackiness that the games had. The action scenes were great as well, hopefully the show can keep it up until the end.
