Decent finale in my opinion. I wouldn't mind another season to be honest. I quite enjoyed this show actually.

8/10.

Was i the only one who disliked Sistine in a wedding dress? I don't have anything about the dress but her hair, i prefer her much more with her daily hair.
It was a nice ending, this anime gave me much more than i expected from it, thanks to Glenn and his harem ahahah
That moment when Sistine left Glenn and said to not touch her was kinda stupid, like... he saved them x100 times, if it wasn't for him she and Rumia would be dead, and now he was doing all that he could save her and she was like "don't touch me, i'm afraid of you" wtf... But thankfully she came back and helped him.
She and Glenn did a pretty nice job together.
I doubt that they will make a 2nd season but we never know ;)
8/10

The episode felt a little rushed, with things happening so quickly, but I'm glad they gave the rest of the backstories away (mostly). I hope there's a season 2 cos it doesn't feel complete (and Celica needs more screentime). Sistine looks nice in a wedding dress

As most have already said, this had a great start but then the last two arcs were kind of run of the mill for magic school shows. Glenn was great throughout, he really made this show special, but everything around him couldn't hold up. Sistine and Rumia were alright, but I felt like they never really developed as much as I wanted them to.

Episode 2 was by far the best episode.

Overall, I'd give it a 7/10. It had a lot of potential, but didn't use it to its fullest ability. Still leagues better than the usual magic school show, but it looks like Chivalry will stay on top for now,

I was enjoying this show, especially Glenn's character until the last arc. The whole melodrama and blackmail shit was so cliche and bland. To top it off, the ending was rushed as heck and that generic, asshole of a villain pretty much got away scot-free.

Sorry, I wanted to rate it higher but it's a 6/10 for me, and a low 6 at that.

Anime started strong and entertaining....then went downhill.

Overly cliched and uninteresting ending definitely does not help!

Seriously, STOP using the girls as pawns and do something original or different!

I feel this anime just repeated itself too much.

As finals go thought this one was pretty enjoyable and fun to watch. Im glad that Sistine was saved by Glenn before Leo kissed her to seal the marriage though. It was sad seeing how sad Sistine was about the marriage that she's been forced into though. The appearance of the zombies which are victims of angel dust as well as their counter by the mage corps though was well done though. Those zombies though far from being dumb and pretty smart and intelligent with their tactics as well. I guess its normal for Sistine to be scared at seeing human beings be killed with magic though. The flashback into the events that led to Sara's death was also interesting. Seeing the normally funny Glenn use lethal force against his enemies is guess will be shocking for Sistine. Hmm so Leo well the real one is actually a dead man and it was in fact the main villain that was using his identity instead. One hell of a twist though. This guy sure has warped sense of what justice is though. Sistine's character have always struggled with perception of Glenn and recent actions have only caused this view of hers to change. But its nice that this struggle is shown here. The fight between Glenn and the main villain sure was interesting though. Seeing Glenn unshackle his powers though was worth it. Nice to see that Sistine managed to find the determination she needed to help protect Glenn though. Sistine's determination to bring Glenn back to her peaceful world though is really admirable. As is her determination to defend and protect him as well. Lol and Glenn finally uses Sistine's actual name. Sistine's skills at magic really is impressive though. Best partner ever. The power of trust and friendship is what won this battle though. Wow the main villain's final pose though. How ironic. Its nice that the series finished with a great ending though.

That entire first half was pretty dam hard to watch, in a cringy way.

The overall show was your standard "to increase light novel sale adaption and most likely won't get anywhere in the actual animated series". Oh well.

Mediocre show which has pretty predictable events and flags. The show had a decent first impression, but gradually fell onto usual LN treaded path.

Yeah,kinda funny that her arc start right after anime ends and next 3 novels are more enjoyable and original in terms of content.Again,сram 5 novel volumes into 12 episodes and of course it will be rushed as fuck,pretty disappointing.

Overall it was awesome, the ending was like RUSHED. The ending was not bad per se but it just felt it hadn't the impact of the other arcs. The puppeteer was revealed and all but we didn't have almost no information of him and than he was defeated in just a third of an episode...

Anime was too promising to me, but it went down with every arc. It wasn't anything special by the end and became too expected. Some Important characters are introduced without showing their contribution to the anime, it was Sara Silvers & Celica for me.
The Akashic records thingy isn't even explained as well.
The Anime doesn't even show its main direction or goals.

I hope one day majority of anime adaptions will be not for sake of selling novels/manga etc.. This one falls into such category.

Many of the bad comments are the elitists that wouldn't know a good anime if it hit them right in the face. But it was great and i'm hoping we get a second or 3rd season which continues the story-line since they left it opened for that. We have been having a good year for anime.

This anime showed a lot of potential early in the season and there were sparks of greatness throughout but this final episode epitomized why this series didn't become a hit sensation. They had the option to take the story in a darker direction with more depth but instead kept things light and fluffy. The final battle was disappointing and anticlimactic. I was hoping for a little more out of this finale and I just got let down in the end. This anime is still a good one and a really enjoyable watch but at the end all I can do is give this anime a 7/10 overall.

Sistine looking real nice with that dress .
Probably the most boring wedding in history, only the students were there haha. Still glad Glenn crashed it.
Sistine fighting with Glenn was pretty nice as predictable as it was.

This series started pretty good but then it got a bit repetitive with the Rumia kidnappings and then the rushed end, still many things unexplained.
Hopefully they'll fix things if season 2 happened, oh and more Celica please, she hardly got any screen time .-.

Was a pretty enjoyable series, really liked Glenn as protagonist, I'm gonna miss those chibis too.

Idk i think the reason why the ending is kinda not like an ending at all (idk the words open? Cliffhanger? Or something like that) is because they only made the anime just for the ln promotion, i think there's an explanation in youtube out there related to this kind of ending. So, it might dont have a season 2. But let's just hope im wrong.

As always I'm sure the LN does a better job but it's a rushed adaptation, plain and simple. The romance is weirdly split between Lumia and Sistine. The action for the most part is fairly lacking. The entire plot could be described as "stuff goes down and Guren comes in and saves ass." It's a little sad since the last arc was a real opportunity to shine but it was heavily crammed toward the end when the beginning was the part that should've been condensed.

I'd watch a season 2 but with the way they burned bridges on this adaptation, not sure we'll ever hear of it again.

I don't know why it's so popular and has high score - maybe thanks to naked bellys (which was dumb)? Story was so predictible after 3rd episode. I am ashamed that I have completed it. 4/10 and burn in hell.

Not the best finale ever, 2 vs 1 doesn't seems fair for Jatice. Pretty sure Jatice would beat the crap out of Glenn if it wasn't because of Sistine who helped him, and that's kinda annoying. First couple episodes were fun to watch but it just going downwards after since.

Wow, that last episode just wasn't very good. It was glaringly obvious that tried to stuff too much into this one and the last episode, which took away from any tension it was trying to portray. A bit unfortunate, but the show was entertaining on the whole.

First arc was genuinely good, then all of a sudden everything went downhill. It's a shame really since the show had potential with its interesting MC. Still better than most others in its genre though, I'll give it that. Not looking forward to a second season but I wouldn't mind either way.

As expected form LIDENFILMS studio, they never know how to make a good ending.
Well at least this is an improvement compared to their last projects.
If there's S2 (S1 open-ended) I don't if I'll watch, anyway I'll rate this anime 6 (or 7) out 10 score overall.

So let's break it down:
- Glenn still isn't know as a mass murderer/killing machine
- Sistine negates all the spells from one of the strongest military mages
- Celica is still not doing anything in this story except for wasting time
- Rumia is pretty much just an object, only worth something for her power, which she never uses and which is also really neglectable, but for some reason it's not
- The whole class magically shows up after every fight just ended

Oh right and Glenn decides not to kill the bad guy just because Sistine was tired.

I enjoyed this show and was hoping for a cliffhanger ending which wasn't rushed so this would be half decent.

Welp, it was fun for most of the episodes eventhough it was never a good show. it was entertaining


My thoughts exactly. There's potential here, but was average at best. And the ending wasn't good at all.

Ending was a little too light, but I enjoyed the series nonetheless.

I like the metamorphosis of Sara being his driving force to the students. For what it was, his interactions with his students were a big positive for me, particularly Sistine.

Hope for a season 2, but I'd be happy if it ended here as well.

Sheesh, I should have finished this a while ago, anyway, anime was pretty good, I enjoyed the character interactions and the happier moments made me happy, but the more serious moments either felt rushed or kind of... lame. The first couple of episodes were the best in my opinion and are probably the only episodes I would rewatch. 6/10.

Pretty much what most people say here, I agree. I enjoyed the series quite well, especially the first half got me good. Came for the school outfit, stayed for Glenn, Shiro Neko and first couple of arcs. But as always, now that its over a couple of things bothers me:

1. Why Celica was such a useless character even though she has been kinda presented as... an all mighty powerful, skilled, beautiful character.
2. We don't know enough about Rumia. Not much development on her part. (except the fact that people like to kidnap her a lot).
3. We don't know who is this Sara person and what's her relationship with Glenn and connection with Sistine (Was she her mother or what?)

..and a couple of other things but yeah.. so many cliffhangers. Pretty sure just like many other Anime out there, the cliffhanger won't get answered and we won't get a conclusion. Low chance for this kind of series to get another season.

7/10 (almost 8/10 at some point) for many unexplained things but cutest outfit ever and Glenn was a nice change from your typical MC-kun archetype

Not going to lie in my opinion the ending felt a little bit anticlimactic but that was because the villain was introduce in this episode (the last one in terms of fighting capabilities [yes he fought in the last one but I’m talking his real self]) so to me the fight felt like it was going at warp speed mode in the sense that for me to believe in the bond if I may say between hero & villain I need to see more of the villain 7 her/his antic to believe/buy in their feelings/exchanging when it comes to blows in terms of fighting… nonetheless this show for me was a good watch.
