I love the music and the animation, and although absurd i can still get past the ecchi content. But the thing that bugs me is the MC, hes weak willed and uninteresting, he's almost just used as a plot device for Claire's story, which i might add is a piece of human garbage and uses the MC to get her way even kicking him off a building, calling him a monster and black mailing him too. As you can probably tell, i hate Claire's character, and to top it all of the MC is literally used like some kind of suit for her to use, so even when i get to see the MC grow its not even him doing the fighting hes just "channeling his strength to her", yaaaaaaawn. Its uninteresting and boring and the amount of double standards is laughable in this episode alone, dont get me wrong i get that the MC is supposed to be weak at the beginning just like Tanjiro, but theres a wrong and right way to do it, atleast Tajiro grew to become stronger through training and motivation to save his sister, Gleipnir's MC is just pathetic and even more he dosent even do the fighting himself he just becomes a vessel for a shitty girl two years younger then him who kicked him off a goddamn building, its honestly sad because the first episode i was so in, then it just went downhill in the second.

I rated this episode a 2/5 not completely terrible .

Nothing like a good ass kicking, didn't expect her to die at all, was really expecting it to be like every other anime where the generous one stops the blood lusted one from killing her and sparing her; but the anime threw the convention out the window. Also the dyanmic is really interesting.

What the f..k was that sex alegory? Entering inside of him? That kid was an obvious sexual predator but so is Claire it seems. and what the hell Hanazawa Kana doing in this anime? Now I cant drop it.

Pretty fine episode with decent action sequences (however some moments had lower quality and it was visible quite significantly).

Shuuichi is gonna be a monster, and Clair is gonna be his pilot, eh? ;p

Oh, and about that Clair's prove of being "one" with the main character - it was not that high, I mean the place she jumped from. She wouldn't have died if Shuuichi had not caught her. Most like she would have ended up being paralyzed (in other words: handicapped).

HanaKana character got revealed. So her wish make Shuichi got that mascoot monster power? Damn, with the battle, tho, still weird to seeing such a combination visualization to be like that. I mean, ffs, that mascoot can't be like that, lol. This show sure can be more entertaining. I can't wait to see more Clair sister screen time, soon.

Big difference watching this after Princess Connect's ep 2, they've befriended/recruited the girl there and in Gleipnir they just straight up murdered her... not really the biggest fan of this, I wish there was a way for them to reconcile, and don't give me the "this is real life" bullshit, there are tons of realistic scenarions where it doesn't lead to murder, hell even if she resented them and tried to hunt them down for the rest of their lives (making her an interesting rival) would already be more interesting. I guess i just don't like murdering characters when there are so many other alternatives.

Ok, this was way better than episode 1. MC is boring and whining, and hearing Kaneki like that again is annoying, but the ability offsets everything and opens the possibility of many different story lines. Claire is a fantastic female lead and if she was to control the MC for the rest of series it would be alright.

The senseless violence is terrible in this show. They both never needed to kill the girl who was chasing them. They could have subdued and constrained her. The guy needs to grow up fast and never let Claire use his abilities again. She is psychotic I believe her condition must have been induced from the feeling of helplessness and powerlessness she felt with the incident with her sister and among other things. Now in the most expedient manner she hopes to satisfy her own ego.

I understand prior to watching this show how it went from an 8.5+ rating to a low 7 rating.

Damn. Pleasantly surprised about the sakuga in that fight scene. It was like something out of Naruto. Also surprised how the girl was straight up killed by one of the main characters, even if it was self-defense and had no choice. Hopefully, future episodes of this will have sakuga during fight scenes again.

Quite the relationship progress, last episode just a peak at her panties and now Clair is already inside him ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Man Shuuichi really is one wimpy kid, letting Clair take over and all. I guess so far in he doesn't really have much of a choice anymore. Fight scene was pretty brutal, looking forward to the rest.

The sexual references were seriously cringe. Also what is with this mc? He seems to just go into horny mode every once in a while and obey his queen's every demand. Honestly this guy's personality is so distasteful.

great action scenes, clair is awesome, their relationship reminds me of yukki x yuno. she killed that girl in cold blood and what a funny response when they talked about it "why is your problem? I killed her, not you", which is true. interesting mistery with the blonde dude and some flashbacks about clair.
I very much enjoyed it

I like how you pointed that quote out! But in a sense she is kinda killing him, he would have never done that himself and she kinda made him so - interested to see how that develops!

well sure, he seems like a good-natured boy and I think it would've been better to let her live and try to find some info about the whole thing, the only problem being that the girl knew clair's location so she could've tried to get revenge. Maybe try to become allies?

Very true, I forgot about that aspect. I think so but I just believe Clair might ruin him O.O

It's the weirdest sex metaphor I've ever seen
This anime is between a furry and a vore fantasm.

Guess Gleipnir was an inspiration for the guys who did Hisone to Maso-tan too.

Better than the first episode. I'm still annoyed by the protagonist and at least we have more answers. That ending huh.
BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity.

lol these random panty shots. I cant blame this chick for killing hikawa I mean she was planning to kill them first and would've. Also how does she even see in that mascot outfit. I guess we know why our lead is in this situation.

I randomly came across the ED song 6 days ago and loved it. So I finally decided to see what it was attached to and while initially put off by the "mascot" design, still gave this show a chance and two episodes in, I like it. Episode 2 made it grow on me after not knowing how I felt with episode 1. The fight scene was animated really well and the "monster" design doesn't bother me as much. I think I'll end up finishing this out.

The cure to a pussy mc is fusing him with a crazy suicidal girl with sister issues, Good work!
Also make sure to make it a fleshlight inside the suit and as erotic as possible.

They killed the attacker. But when Clair entered Shuuichi, I died. There's so much sexual undertones there, and Clair seems psychotic.

Eh... I don't like how fleshy Shuuichi's "suit" is on the inside LOL

Clair's into some freaky stuff huh?

Ngl, watching that athletic bitch get fucked up like that was pretty satisfying. I did not like her, although I didn't think they'd kill her 0_o It's crazy how weak helpless she ended up being once Clair figured out how to control the suit

Much better than the last episode, but not sure how to feel about this show yet

Loving the fanservice in this show <3
