| Well, this ridiculous episode just rather spoiled the series for me. |

| I was wondering what this episode would be about. I liked it. I would watch this alternate version with Djeeta and her crew. Or well, I would watch any version with all of these characters. It would be better off as a separate OVA though. 8/10 for me. I will definitely watch another season. yuliyana29 said: What the actual fuck? Was that girl gender bender of Gran? Where is he? Where did he disappear/go? I guess it was just an alternate version. It's based on a game, so I think you can either choose a male (Gran) or a female (Djeeta) version of your hero. |
| I like pancakes. |
| Haha RIP Gran, recast'ed So I heard Djeeta is more popular in japan, well compared to Gran she's OP and actually pretty cool alpha MC while Gran is pretty lame, weakling and beta |
| Not bad for a bonus episode. I guess (if I understood it correctly) it is possible to play as female MC in the game and they just used this for the bonus episode. + A bit recap (Lyria thinking about stuff in the past while writing her diary). Going with 6/10 as final score. Not super bad. But also too much generic and I wasn't really looking forward to the next episodes (required for 8+) and some of them were boring. (Depending on where they were. Some were nice again like the one in the treasure dungeon with nice chemistry between Rakham and Io.) I wouldn't watch more if they made a 2nd season. |
| They are the exact same bland piece of empty space in the game but DJ being a cute girl is of course more popular. As far as I know, players are split 6:4 using DJ as MC over Gran. Sadly, they went with "boy meets girl" in the anime and when Gary Stu meets supposedly adorable moron you don't get a good story. It was surprisingly not horrible at first but last 2-3 eps went downhill so fast they reached game writing level at the bottom. This ep was just a fanservice for players and actually felt like doing a story quest - nice eye candies but damn it was stupid. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Why couldn't it be Djeeta the whole anime? smh. It would've been less generic. |
| Lol what a waste of an episode. yuliyana29 said: What the actual fuck? Was that girl gender bender of Gran? Where is he? Where did he disappear/go? Huh, what? Screenshot plz? |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| This episode has OVA written all over it. It's a bit odd then chose to end on this. I've really enjoyed this series. It's nothing new but gave off those oldskool adventure jrpg vibes. Hopefully we get a second season at some point. 8/10 |

Both behave as shonen protagonist sure but there's pretty much no female protagonists in anime who behave that way or have such a role. So by flipping a gender the behavior becomes unexpected and more refreshing in comparison to Mr Bland Fantasy Hero. This episode actually shows how the show could have been improved - use the female heroine doing all the stuff instead of Gran, add a bit more self aware satirical elements and you have something different from the norm.

| The type of episode we see in Bluray as bonus. Well fan-service was good and Katalina was cute and funny with her sword. Now the question is, who is this girl at 9.36:  Maybe Arulumaya? |

Fai said: To be honest I don't see how changing a bland, boring, self insert character from a guy to a girl makes any improvement besides being easier on the eyes.

Fai said: This episode actually shows how the show could have been... All in all I totally agree with you that this episode just confirmed what we've all known for a long time about shows with female protagonists, they always end up becoming a generic repetitive yuri show with excessive and pointless fanservice. I really wonder of people never get tired of watching this generic repetitive cancer over and over |o| |

| As someone that had enjoyed this anime upto ep 12 this left me scratching my head. They should have gone the Dragonaut route and made this last episode a special. Eps 1-12 = 7/10 Eps 1-13 = 6/10 |
| Iam going to rewatch this episode later.......... With 1 hand in my pants. Yeah good episode best episode of this anime yet. For obvious reasons. |
In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful. | You know what I hate the most? People who aren't free. They're no more than cattle. |
Aversa said: This episode just made me wonder why we could not enjoy Djeeta for the entire anime, Gran wasn't bad but i definitely prefer Djeeta. Because she's Over Powered, lol. Did you see the way she took out those bots and Imperials? She didn't even break a sweat. Gran actually has to try. |
| Fuck Yeah!!! Best episode of this series or I should say "OVA". Was really great to see Djeeta spicing things up! No wonder she didn't show up in the main series, Djeeta too strong. ^^ Siero's thug parrot was lol. The fanservice was really on point, all the girls looking great, especially Rosetta. Poor Io tho xD They actually changed the ED to have Djeeta instead of Gran at the end lololol. Was probably gonna give this series 7 but then this episode happened so 8 it'll be! Hope there'll be more Djeeta in the future if they decide to make a 2nd season, tho I doubt. |

| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| Im guessing that Djeeta is the girl version/path in the game. But dam it basically spoiled everything right? All of those ppl are gonna join the crew and everything. One thing Im happy about this episode being the conclusion was seing Katalina out of her armor and in a bikini , embarassed :3 *nosebleeds* |
| Was confused for awhile, thought that Lyria/everyone had her/their memories altered or something and Gran was going to show up to beat Djeeta who was in his place. Wound up just being a special/ova in content. |
| Lolol poor Ono Yuuki, I wanted to see Gran... I also wanted actual plot... Oh yeah did anyone else see the blushing boys behind the newly introduced girls in bikinis? |
 |
| HAHAHA this episode was perfect anime only viewers must be confused as hell even with this being a extra we all got jebaited didn't care for the fanservice but it was a nice touch using everyone's summer versions ,was disappointing that they still held back on giving Vane and the knights any lines guess it makes sense since they haven't been introduced yet. this episode should be taken as a satire view on someone who has lucked out on the gacha and has a powerful weapon pool and SSR characters to make story/event quests a joke to prowl through lol vs someone only playing for a few weeks using nothing but Rs . if they even do a season 2 time to make Canon DJ MC for that season :P |

Hinata said: But dam it basically spoiled everything right? All of those ppl are gonna join the crew and everything Not really. That's just an injoke on players who whaled enough to have gazillion of top rank hard to get characters they can then use to wipe floor with everything. |
|
| Summary: Djeeta is an OP lucksack. As a guy I like how Djeeta was practically portrayed as HL. I fapped to that gacha pull of Sara. 11/10. Could use some Lecia as well.

If that was the case, then they would've shown the dreaded Visa-chan (Summer ver.). But, they didn't. Too salty? |

| Like it was good enough to get a damn fan service episode with a gender bender Gran...Glad it's over. Edit: Read above that she is another character that people can play with, guess it would be better with her instead of boring Gran. 5/10 |
 |
| Replacing Gran with some girl for a fan service on the last episode, SMH. |
| lol, BEST!! I don't play and I don't know nothing about grandblue, I know that's only fanservice but I want Djeeta canon now: she's more lively, she has boobs, she has gathered a big crew with a lot of waifus, she has boobs, and she fights like a pro, no wasted moves. Really, best! |
 |
| i thought this series was gonna have 34 more eps to broadcast but guess what no money no talk. |
| Ehhh, I'd rather have Gran than that new girl... Too many girls in general, they pretty much turned into almost all-girl crew, and I want more balance. Also, surprised they even included a pure fanservice-y episode that generally you'd see as an extra OVA on BDs or something, not a part of the main TV series... I find it a very controversial decision. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| Lol, a beach and fanservice episode finale, I didn't expect that alright. Guess it was an enjoyable show overall, but nothing special in the end in my opinion. Wouldn't be surprised if it gets another season, considering it's selling like cupcakes from what I've seen. I'd probably watch it if that were to be the case. 7/10. |

| This episode should of been an alternate version or OVA. At the start of the episode i was just confused on what was going on. Overall the art was fantastic but story was just okay. |
My Candies:     |
| I'm quite disappointed with the last episode. I wouldn't complain if it was a separate OVA or an spin-off but to finish the series with such mediocre "something" unrelated to the story line, emphasizing fan service... They really irked me. No wonder the score dropped. Essentially I had fun with the whole series so I'll rate this anime 7/10. |
| Djeeta cameo in berserker class :3 more waifu in the crew and its a beach episode Would be nice if there'll be a second season, though it seems like this adaptation felt like promotion for the game especially the 12th and 13th episode that showed the other characters of the game. |

taiffon_3e said: Most of the game players didn't like the decisiion of Gran being MC instead of DJeeta, also the studio wanted to have both as MCs but Cygames (the game company) refused. Fai said: The only good episode in the whole show because vanillaboy is gone and the one who should have been MC is there. Frankly this felt more like a punch in the gut relegating the femprotag to basically what amounts to a comedy omake. Oh Japan and your hatred of female characters.... But you guys KNOW; the real truth is that Japan hates male protags. Either they don't exist or they get treated horribly. I like Gran. He's basically the last good representation of a shounen lead who isn't either a punching bag for femdom or nonexistent. |
