This is some majorly pretentious crap. So he cheated by using Elen's wind to guide his arrow around the sword despite it being a 1v1 duel of skill, and this is different from when he pulled the same hax early in the series just... how? The entire series was a bunch of staged gimmicks made to seem like they were fighting against "impossible odds": Overpowered people with magical powers slaughtering tens of thousands of normal enemy soldiers, but crying and throwing a tantrum at the lost of a single old fart. Everyone who could have potentially posed a respectable challenge to Tigre conveniently died off (the emotionless soldier in the cave, anyone? Some mighty fine rock dropping that conveniently killed all the enemies and left everyone else unharmed), and I still don't know who the fuck 4 out of the 7 Senkis that they taunted in the OP are. The hot one came in looking super strong, then got her ass kicked, apologized, and left all within a span of 3 minutes. The hotter one gets sekuhara'd by a sleeping Tigre, then conveniently appears at the end to save an ugly old fart from poetic justice. I give up. 3/10 I'm skinning myself for wasting what little precious time I had during the semester on this. |

Too many ignorant posts like this :( Do you people know nothing?! :( Killed thousands of people? yeah, the enemy who they have no emotional attachment too. And that powerful guy who stayed, knew the risks and still went on but Bertrands sacrifice and interference caused him to die cause he was too stubborn in his duty hence the ep title. Tigre sama shot only one arrow to help him concentrate and he used the wind to help his shot land UNLIKE that time with Elen meaning he's improved. And Elen said her dragon gear DIDN'T help Tigre sama so it's legit. SKILL, EVER HEARD OF IT?! |

RodrigoL said: In my opinion is a good anime so 6/10 and i hope for a second season because it was incomplet like who is the loli pink girl in the opening and how does the girl who creats portals new tigre and the bad guy?? If anyone knows pls explain Portal girl is Valentina, she doesn't know Tigre, she just came to see him since she heard good things about him. She also knows Ganelon cause every war maiden has their own connections with different factions, eg ludmila with thenardier. Loli girl is called Olga ,another war maiden with a giant axe but left her position to go look for someone worthy to lead her since the current king of Zychted is incompetent and weak ( the one who died this ep. They also cut out Elizaveta (whip girl) scene, she made a contract with a demon for power in her right arm (mostly to beat Elen) and she admired Elen in the past but now she and Elen have a bad relationship. |

And? Does that make the prospect of killing tens of thousands of enemies, but not suffering even a minimal fraction of that in causality any less preposterous? This is war. This isn't some kiddie's show where only the enemy gets obliterated while the heroes don't suffer any causalities. This pathetic attempt at making Tigre seem like a better commander than he actually is is sickening, and shows a lack of both depth and substance in the overall direction of the story. ichii_1 said: And that powerful guy who stayed, knew the risks and still went on but Bertrands sacrifice and interference caused him to die cause he was too stubborn in his duty hence the ep title. Although he was standing next to the old fart and Tigre, only HE was crushed to death while the main cast were "miraculously" unharmed (the old fart landed meters away despite being right on top of Tigre, hurr durr go figure). How convenient. The only person who might have posed a challenge and made this show somewhat interesting - killed off in such a cheap way in an instant. Because he was a challenge that Tigre obviously couldn't just roflstomp with a headshot, they got rid of him. ichii_1 said: Tigre sama shot only one arrow to help him concentrate and he used the wind to help his shot land UNLIKE that time with Elen meaning he's improved.

The last sentence is obviously wrong, because when Elen asked her gear, the wind was returning to it after helping Tigre land his shot. Therefore my original statement that this was not a fair 1v1 duel stands. So to answer your last question: Yes I've heard of skill. No I don't think giving him unrealistic magical powers with the bow, on top of the cheap support from Elen's dragon gear in a 1v1 duel against a normal human constitute the definition of "skill". I'm not interesting in watching overpowered cast roflstomp through "challenges" fixed for the explicit purpose of being ego folder for Tigre. Perhaps children will enjoy watching the good guys always win without breaking a sweat. |

GET IT? IT WAS TIGRE SAMA USING THE NATURAL WIND AS SUPPORT, MEANING HIS OWN SKILL NOT ELEN'S NOR ANY MAGIC OR DEMONS! GG |

HowTragic said: Or . . . you could look at it as divine intervention, and not so much a climactic final battle as the point where it became clear the gods had chosen/sided with him. I agree that the wind was not natural, and couldn't have been, but this is not a series where normal physics are unfailingly applied. The battle itself was anticlimactic from the start, and Tigre's dueling style is certainly not adequate for a spectacular fight.Elen said it did not help, and the loli said that it was all Tigre, adding that Tigre was allied with the wind. Try thinking a little. He could hit such a cheap shot with help from "the wind", ambiguously termed in Japanese to leave question of where this "wind" came from. He could have absorbed the wind in the air (again, hardly a "fair" move) or it could have been Elen's wind that was imbued in his bow from the previous skirmish. Even if you somehow drew the conclusion that it was still "skill", a shot rigged to this point is completely uninteresting, unfair, and unsuitable for the supposedly climatic nature of a final battle. As such, it bears no relevance to my, and several other people's point that this was a lame and rigged duel that only dug the grave for this dull series. A shot that curves around the wind from a blade is not physically possible because the air resistance from an object can never exceed the total force of the object itself. This isn't clever, this is borderline stupid and obnoxious. I suppose next time they're going to tell me that he has the power to ignite sodium in peoples' bodies and set them on fire from a distance. |

In the LN , Baoduin was the only one who recognize the title of Lumiere, except for the king. There they claimed it had only been awarded once in Brune's entire history, and the one who was awarded it then, later married the princess/queen, and became a king, so it's pretty similar to the anime's adaptation of it. Could've been better, but could've been worse as well. Still hoping for a future second season. |

This is not a very good ending to me, it could have been so much better. The final battle between Tigre and Thenardier is boring and too simple, I would have preferred a battle between 2 close range weapon due to the use of the bow there being cowardly (yes Tigre has stick to one weapon from the beginning but this is the final battle). I was surprised that the series reached a conclusion that it did though, I thought the series is aiming for a cliffhanger and would continue with a second season seeing that we didn't get to see one war maiden and half of them do not get enough screentime. A 7/10 from me overall (score was slightly higher before the finale). |

To be fair, this series probably couldn't have been animated any better given how 5 volumes were crammed into 13 episodes. The characters were nicely drawn (much better than the LN art). The soundtrack was decent. And there weren't too many occasions where they noticeably cut corners in animation. But still, one has to question why they rushed so hard in the first place. Despite the occasional fan service (which the anime certainly padded also), Madan actually has a decent coherent plot and the battles were at least well thought out -- nothing genius, but nothing thrown together at random either. Having read the LN I wasn't lost at any point, but surely those who're just watching this series probably already perceived that a lot was missing. Kind of sucks that a series like this is getting the short end of the stick while DxD, IS, etc. are getting more than 2 seasons, but that's just the way this industry is. 2/5 |

Well after reading some of the responses regarding the LN and pacing, it seems my suspicions on this episode feeling a bit off were right. I still like how it managed to wrap things up by the end, but I would have preferred another season if it meant refining some of the more crammed together parts. Additionally, I preferred the earlier episodes more and wasn't as enthusiastic about the last 5 or so. Other than that, my only real disappointment is that the last war maiden didn't show up despite being the cutest one. I have to say for something that was tagged as ecchi and harem, it really stayed on course with keeping me interested in the plot that was unfolding (not boobs plot - real plot!). I like how the service was kept minimal, yet counted when it was implemented (such as Eleonora in episode 1 - holy smokes). The strongest point for me was definitely the characters though. The war maidens were strong and, despite playing into archetypes a bit, weren't strictly category characters that could be summed up in a dere. Eleonora, in particular, had me impressed with her mix of strong, insightful, and understanding. Also bonus points that the breast groping trope never devolved into the girl becoming super embarrassed and smacking the MC without fail. The star of the harem, Tigre, is also a very fresh breath of life as a harem lead, being both strong and reliable but not overly alpha. What's more, I like how he never completely hogged the glory and how he fought as an equal with the war maidens. I really would like to see more of this but based on what I'm reading that doesn't seem very likely. Nevertheless, this has been enjoyable and I'd definitely like to see more harems with this kind of chemistry (Trinity Seven was another good one this season though). 7.5/10 |

HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: The lengths people go to just because they can't admit they're wrong :'( sad You are one persistent troll. In the entire argument you have yet to provide a single feasible point on why this is not a shit anime. So who's wrong again? That's your opinion, and the whole thing was about Tigre sama using his skills and talent to make the shot on Thenardier not the show's quality. Concession Accepted.

I posted it in response to the same comments that called the arrow shot an asspull but then you go ahead and post the same damn thing , so I posted it again. So you are incapable of of posting something and leaving it there. I pity your insecurity of having to repeatedly post the same things to make a point. And for the record, it is an asspull. Maybe if you replied to the stuff I posted instead of saying the same sh!t again without reading the the thread I wouldn't need to re post. I don't see how this precludes my point that you repost over and over again in order to make a point because obviously you don't have enough confidence in your posts. I did read your first post, and even thought about replying to it. Then I chuckled and realized "This kid has no idea what's he's talking about, and to top it off, is trying to use memes to substitute contextual support for his points because he can't actually point to what is "good" about this drivel without resorting to little weeabooish fanboy words like "-sama", "awesome" "cool". The reason why no one replies to your posts is because everyone thinks "why bother replying to this drivel?" It's so obvious what happened during the battle that it's my duty to educate you and your ignoring the post just proves the ignorance and I had to repost for the greater good. A person who can't even write coherent sentences, educating me on my "ignorance"? And this: ichii_1 said: I had to repost for the greater good is classic. LOL. It's fact that you didn't reply to my post the first time and had to post the same thing as what I just answered, GG. HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HT said: And?

Oh and they won against numbers by having better strategies,knowing the land better and reinforcements by allies FYI. So you must be one of those "special" kinds of people who doesn't require the use of a "brain" while watching anime. Where did it even even say that they lost "thousands" of soldiers? Sure I saw him apologizing to Elen for killing her soldiers, but the death count is hardly a dent even in their already tinyass army. If you've been keeping track of the army counts throughout the anime, you'd notice that the deaths on Tigre's side are not even significantly noticeable. Not to mention, they went against multiple armies that were over 10 times larger. Even a semi-retarded autistic kid would know that both side will lose similar amounts during direct confrontations since no commander can magically lower the casualty for their side when both sides are duking it out in a head-to-head brawl. Killing tens of thousands of enemies and losing no significant amount of allies through "strategy"? Don't kid me. They said they lost several hundred at some point meaning every battle several hundred died, it adds up and Elen had 5000+ soldiers whom alot died along with the reinforcement soldier who also died during the battle with the guy and his 30.000 soldiers. GG, sit down old man. Can you do math? Kills X0,000 soldiers, loses X00 soldiers. Equal huh? Wow where did those two extra zeros go? Or are you suggesting that Tigre shot the residual tens of thousands of soldiers to death by himself? Strategy might help to bring lighter loses on the allied side, but not to the point that it's less than 1% of enemy causalities. Perhaps this is too difficult for trolls amidst their autistic spasms to understand. Try again. That hundreds was the short battles . Then came all the thousands among thousands of reinforcements whom thousands of died in the huge battle. They're objective was to drive them away not eradicate them, that why they used gorilla tactics until that huge battle. Go rewatch the show old man. I have no idea what you're saying, because none of your sentences fit together. Sorry I'm not versed in the ways of "autistic speaking". This series is a waste of time for anyone with a minimally survivable IQ. They say that you forget things because you remember more important things. Makes sense, because I barely recall anything from this drivel. But you can go ahead and rewatch it, because it obviously fits your objectively shit tastes. CONCESSION ACCPETED AGAIN! Can't even remember anything from a show you just watched XD lmfao stick to American cartoon please, it's easier to keep up with. HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HT said: Although he was standing next to the old fart and Tigre, only HE was crushed to death while the main cast were "miraculously" unharmed (the old fart landed meters away despite being right on top of Tigre, hurr durr go figure).

Bertrand was right on top of Tigre or else he wouldn't have blocked the blow for him. All three people were there at the same place when the rocks fell down, yet only the enemy was somehow crushed to death. "The luck is real"? No kidding. But what kind of shitty anime needs "luck" to solve its challenges for the MC? When rocks fall down when a cave caves in, it's luck that saves you not skill. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luck So much autism in this one post. Read again what I said, provided you're not illiterate on top of being autistic. HowTragic said: "The luck is real"? No kidding. But what kind of shitty anime needs "luck" to solve its challenges for the MC? So... where did I mention "skill"? I said skill as a comparison since your so hang up on skill. So illiterate on top of being autistic it is. Skill wasn't even discussed in this point. Adding irrelevant points to digress the discussion - typical troll. 0/10 try again. I'm talking about about what the discussion was originally about, Tirgre sama having the skill to predict the wind pattern and beat Thenardier. Keep up old man. HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HowTragic said: ichii_1 said: HT said: Incoherent drivel. I don't know what you're trying to say.

"LMFAO" and the TALK IN CAPS aside, I automatically assume you have the mental capacity of a 10 year old when you use "XD". Elen said it did not help, and the loli said that it was all Tigre, adding that Tigre was allied with the wind. Try thinking a little. He could hit such a cheap shot with help from "the wind", ambiguously termed in Japanese to leave question of where this "wind" came from.

The producers want you to think that Tigre was awesome, skillful, and an MC worthy of his reward, and congratulations, you bought into it like a tool. If you have any spec of awareness left, you'd notice that there was no strategy or skill involved in this entire series. All of the challenges were artificially created to make Tigre seem superior through his haxed headshots across the battlefield. There is no actual substance or anything besides the +1 harem notifications that keep popping up after every major battle. This guy has god protection (that you kindly supported with your "Luck is real" interjection). Simply put, this is a show for little kids who can't stand their beloved MC facing actual challenges and growing from overcoming them. Also, what does "DEMON" have to do with anything? Are you still mentally ok? TOP LEL :) Elen's dragon gear didn't help at all. Tigre sama read/predicted the wind, notice the wind was blowing? he noticed and used that as a boost for the arrow at the right time cause he's a beast. Also he said he wanted to it himself, that includes no help from the dragon gears. Skill and lineage. Yeah he's a super master archer making masterful shots that makes even veteran archers look like sh!t, cause he trained hard with his legendary archer dad. Strategy beats large numbers, rewatch the show. Jealous of the girls? Lim's left tit >>> any woman you'll ever meet. Tigre sama did grow up but your bias and jealousy clouds your judgement. The demon/god thing that gave Tigre sama power, try to keep up. Appalling. Read what you wrote and slap yourself accordingly. ichii_1 said: Yeah he's a super master archer making masterful shots that makes even veteran archers look like sh!t, cause he trained hard with his legendary archer dad. I'm not even going to bother. It's obvious that you're a dweeab incapable of giving a structured argument. The characters of this shit anime won't even make /a/'s shit tier waifu list, let alone have any reasonable impression on me. Worse than being labeled shit tier, no one even cares about them. They are generic, sexualized, one-dimensional characters, and thousands of such characters come and go every season. I pity you a little, but it's inevitable that every community has its menial trash. CONCESSION ACCEPTED! Master archer and reading/predicting the flow of the natural air (not using the wind weapon) > you Go back to your ugly, docile and fat wiafu's, cause you're not good enough to handle real women like Elen. -> Comparing anime characters to real life people -> ichii_1 said: real women like Elen "real women." LOL I guess I'm out of things to say. There's nothing I can say that will do more damage than how much you've insulted yourself in these quotes. I'm done feeding the troll of great autism. But here, take my condolences. "Real" means more than just the real world, it's also meant as a way to describe her character, e.g. she not fake like most women she keeps it real. And this is how 50% of the US is gonna look in 3 to 4 years, have fun. Can't admit that Tigre sama just has that much skill and talent, can you? XD (that's what the whole things about btw not the show's quality) |

So Tiger will be the next king whitout him knowing it ? since he got that Tittle, nice finale but i feel it's a bit rushed, i guess they go with the harem ending, but i ship Tigre x Elena we definitely need a second season, i want to see more Elizavetta, too bad she didn't get enough screen times Overall score 7/10, wouldn't mind for a 2nd season |

Just finished watching this. I have to say I really like the concept of this show especially the wars between armies and all the strategies used. The ending was rushed and even Thenardier's death felt lame??? I absolutely dislike Tigre's attire along with apologetic attitude and naive personality as it felt too generic it would have turned out a lot better if he were cold and merciless. I mean he should at least have some decent armor to make him more visually appealing as a count instead he looked like a peasant running around with bow and arrow. I also wanted to see more action from Tigre but it was okay. Overall 7/10 |

season 2 or give us something to go off of it was like there is still a lot left to happen , like the king told sofy to tell elen to stop the war but they meet once its over and the maden with the scythe look like she had something up her sleave with gandolon or whatever his name was then all of a sudden.... THE END like wtf seriously i wonder how the voice actors take pride in taking part in such a half hearted unfinished anime, o well i just finished it i guess ill have to somehow find an english translation of the LN or learn japanese i guess thats why books are made in the first place, but then again i get invested in an anime due to connection to the characters and their portrayals along with the storyline ... enough of the ranti guess what im saying is dont get someone invested in a story just to let it go to waste or all be for nothing kinda leaves an empty hole in your investment somewhere coughs "heart" |

Am so pissed off at how they chopped and crammed everything together like this just to make the first 5 volumes fit into a 12 episode show. Seriously this is exactly why I'd been insisting they do a 2 cour for this show, even up to this point. Am upset because this is one of the more interesting and entertaining LNs out there, and they totally butchered it to make it seem both rushed and way less interesting than it should be. The only thing I'll give it is that it served it's purpose in enticing more people to go read the LN, but personally I find it an insult. On a standalone basis I feel this had the potential to rival at least shows like Mahouka if done properly. Their animation studio was promising, as were the first few episodes, even though those were rushed (less rushed than the last 6, but still rushed). Out of the 5 LNs announced back in 2013 to be animated, this was the last one that came out. I was expecting it to be because they'd negotiated better budgets or at least more episodes to tell the tale.... sigh.... this disappointed me to no end. I wouldn't mind a second season to tell the rest of the tale, but given they rushed the fuck out of this first season, I'd rather they took the bigger budget and just redid this show in 24 episodes.... Still love this LN to bits though.. |

This show was okay, definitely felt rushed though towards the end. It was enjoyable but not fantastic. 6/10. |

Wow it's finally over :( Show was really good at first. But i can see why budget issues and lack of polish didn't put the full potential of this show. I mean Shingeki no Bahamut has an amazing animation and its similar to this. Same with Akame Ga Kill. It was nice seeing Elen and Lim when they were just mercenaries. I'm glad they showed the first episode and why Tigre was in indebted to Elen in the first place. Lol Regin with that Valkyrie Armor! I thought Tigre is gonna unleash hell Thenardier, but Elen knock some sense to Tigre since she knows he's succumbing to vengeance. And yeah they haven't explained what power Tigre holds and why did they give the dark power to him? While the final battle was kinda over too quick. That's just how battle works tbh. No Fancy over long battles. it's either kill or be killed. And wow the bow ricochet! Tigre convinced me that an Archer can be pretty badass!!! I thought they just took pot shots and run away, but damn being an archer specialist is pretty awesome! Hehe Tigre with that fancy prince outfit! Kinda sad the king died like that. Still at least peace between the regions is fine for now. They really need to make a season 2. Not only the Light novels are still on going, but a lot of characters didn't get any screen time like Olga, Sofya, Valentina, Elizavetta, Sasha etc. Even Ganelon is still on the loose. They need to capture him soon. Still i really enjoyed the show, but yeah i wished they took care of this much better. And if anyone wants to know, this is Volume 5 of the light novel series. And there's a lot more things to come after this event. Six months later, Tigre is summoned by Viktor to the Asvarre Kingdom to thwart Prince Germaine's tyrannical rule. There, he befriends Sasha, who entrusts Elen to him after he tells her what has happened. After saving war maiden Olga Tamm of Brest from being attacked, Tigre accompanies her on the journey to Asvarre, along with Matvey, the captain of his ship, the Proud Beluga. He also encounters Tallard Graham, one of Asvarre's generals. Meanwhile, Sofy encounters Germaine's brother Prince Eliot but is captured by his pirates. Tallard stages a coup d'état and kills Germaine. Hearing of the invasion, Eliot dispatches the demon Torbalan at his stronghold at Fort Lux. However, Tigre and his friends are able to infiltrate the stronghold and rescue Sofy. Eliot is captured and sentenced to death, and Tallard becomes ruler of the kingdom. While returning to Zhcted, Tigre, Olga and Matvey repel an assault by a demon named Torbalan; Tigre disappears in the chaos. Later, Sasha and Liza kill Torbalan, but Sasha collapses due to her frail health as well as exhausting her powers. Before she dies, Sasha tells Elen to compromise with the other war maidens for peace as well as to find her own partner in her life. Later, an amnesiac Tigre, who now goes by the alias of his father Urs, is soon found by Liza near Port Lipper and is taken to Lebus. Despite being ridiculed by the townsfolk at first, he eventually gains their admiration. Back at Silesia, Viktor falls ill. In her attempt to overthrow the king and weaken Regin's power, Valentina tricks Count Eugene Shevarin of Pardu and Duke Ilda Krutis of Bydgauche - Viktor's heirs - into fighting each other. At Tigre's request, Liza and Elen decide to work together. Later at Bydgauche, Liza, Tigre and their allies fight and defeat Ilda. He soon realizes that the fight is also another test by Lebus's minister. After settling the feuds between Lebus and Bydgauche, Tigre is selected as Lebus's adviser. Liza and Tigre soon encounter the demon Baba Yaga, who demands that Liza returns her powers to her. In the ensuing chaos, Tigre saves Liza from being killed by a dragon. However, Baba Yaga impales Liza's right arm, and Tigre disappears along with the demon. Eventually, Tigre is found by Damad, a Muozinel soldier dispatched by Kreshu to learn of his whereabouts. Tigre and Damad befriend each other, but Damad becomes suspicious of Tigre's true identity and escorts him back to Lebus. Lim, Mashas, Titta and Elen regroup with Tigre and Damad, having known Tigre's true identity throughout his encounter, goes his separate ways with Tigre. Tigre and Liza battle Baba Yaga again and Elen returns to help. When Elen gets exhausted, Tigre hugs her and regains his memories. Tigre severely wounds Baba Yaga, who is soon killed and absorbed by Ganelon. After the Lebus forces repel an attack by an army from Polus led by Count Orgelt Kazakov, Liza and Elen reconcile and Tigre becomes their mediator. I give this a 8/10. I really enjoy it and there's a lot of things to follow up. Let's just hope they would announce Season 2 with more budget and better animation maybe next year or so! |

I can only say this anime was *Rushed* too much or else it had the potential of being a good anime to watch. The opening/ending had missing a missing character (not sure if the loli was just a fake suprise to think there was loli in it. (I'm not a fan of loli) but shouldn't have placed a random characters if they weren't going to appear. The anime is labelled as *ecchi*, I didn't actually even seen any. If there was then that was like 1 scene and that was in the bath with the other girls which is rather a weak genre to stick in. Overall it is a rating of 6/10 |

I guess its true what they say about some anime being nothing but adverts for the corresponding manga, I want to see more of this series but unless a season 2 comes out (which it doesn't for a lot of series) I'm gonna have to settle for the manga. |

Ever notice that in every battle, the side with the most cleavage wins? (woa Regin!) That was it?... um... really? Count me disappointed. Tigre can finally use that bow's power, then he doesn't... what?! The anime started out promising, then... didn't deliver. Sure there were some okay battles here and there, but nothing "epic" ever really happened. 5/10 (average) |

Meh. Had its good parts, mainly the girls. The ending was a bit anti-climatic and rushed. Sad that they didn't make the male mc more badass or unique. He seemed like a regular guy who shoots extraordinary well with a bow and arrow from a distance... that ONLY, he can't fight (hand-to-hand combat), doesn't run much - only sits on a horse or stands shooting an arrow. Wished they made his character somewhat similar to DC's "Arrow". 6/10 |

Easy kill, as always. Oh well, good end is good end. They should have adapted the LN properly. Still, this is an alright Anime. I like them ladies <3 Tigre is pretty awesome. I shall watch the specials now. I would watch a season 2 if they will make one. Thanks you ^^ Posts: 3800 |

My Thoughts of the Last Episode: Tigre Vorn had mastered the power of the black bow huh? (As said by the black bow)... Oh no! Bertrand you served him well, R.I.P. The hidden intention for conquering Alsace and other lands was revealed, It's to connect lands and be it's ruler. The war between Thenardier and Silver Meteor Storm has begun... Princess Regnas was so cute on that battle armor. Tirge was full of hatred and anger because of the death of Bertrand. Ellen's punch on Tigre!... Tigre are you awake now? The fight between Duke Thenardier and Vorn just ended with a single normal hit of an arrow in the head. The war between nations was finally over (for now?). So the homecoming party begins. Long Live Count Tigre Vorn! The hair style of Tigre in the beginning was kinda funny. Oh well it turned back. Princess Regnas and Titta was really cute. Tigre, Ellen, Ludmilla Titta with Princess Regin and the group goes to the Kingdom of Brune due to King's request. King Faron thanked Tigre for saving Princess Regnas and for making and end to the wars. Tigre also made a request on King Faron which is about Alsace's ruling and it was made happen by Princess Regnas. Eh that's it? The fight between Duke Thenardier and Vorn just ended with a single normal hit of an arrow in the head? I was actually expecting that Tigre will use the power of the Black Bow in full strength to tear Thenardier apart. I just had the time watch this again because I was busy my study and with watching the current Winter Anime. But this ending I will have? Oh well sure it really look like rushed adaptation. But at least they still made this instead of nothing. Wouldn't mind a sequel if they plan to make one. But seeing "The End" at the last scene I guess it's already confirmed it ends there. But maybe I'm wrong. I'll give this Anime 7 out 10 over all. Time to Re-Watch this next in BluRay Format. |

would've been 9/10 if they focus more on strategy and more epic fights (yes Kingdom biased) but it was fun overall... would've been a great hentai as well (kuroinu comes to mind) anywho.. i wouldn't mind 2nd season 8/10 Titta also needs more screen time... bish deserves tigre the most imo. |

The ending had so many loopholes imo. I would've thought they'd killed the dukes at the end. Plus the war maiden with the scythe really didn't do anything other than for the specials. I think if this was a 24- series show it would've been more reasonable. I still liked the show, Elen and Sofya were to drool upon and Lim was just lmfao at the specials with her teddy bears. They even brought over her bear fetish in the real show with the bear pelt. |

The story just seemed pretty normal to me. In the end, it was pretty much about war. But the way they animated it was impressive, the battle scenes were good too. The characters were kinda so-so though, but I can't really deny how well drawn the female characters are. Overall, just a decent one for me. 7/10 |

This show felt like it had everything from everywhere but not enough to make it amazing. I've enjoyed it anyway. I would watch a 2nd season. I only wished to know more about that goddess that controls Tigre's bow. I also think that Tigre x Regin would've been better than Tigre x Elen (not that I dislike Elen). |

I think this show has best MC i ever saw in this type of anime. He didnt have classic development from cry baby to badass since he was badass from the start. I guess everyone agree that problem in this show is pacing which result in lack of characters and character screen. Only 2 out of 7 Maidens got the screen time which is a shame, but who knows, maybe in season 2 we see more of them (if they make season 2) It is very enjoyable anime without useless humor. |

Advertisement for LN worked but as an an anime this was just too rushed. Elen saving Tigre from falling into revenge mode was one of the best moments of the show and just cemented her place as best girl in my mind. |
