This one is fairly average, but since there aren't too many other shows that I planned to watch for this season, I suppose I will stick with this one.

Useless protagonist is useless.. I'll wait 2-3 eps before dropping it, but for now it's pretty bad.

When I saw those red boxing gloves from the Boxing club caption from Kill la Kill, I knew Trigger must have been involved with this in some way^^

Overall, nice ep. Liked how they actually got chuuni powers xD
Seems like this is gonna be a funny series. I like that^^

Hummm, I've notice that the powers that they have reflects their personality, i.e, Chifuyu Himeki's power of able to make something outta anything reflects her creativeness, Tomoyo Kanzaki's power of controlling time reflects her being punctual, Hatoko Kushikawa's power over the 4 elements reflect her used of the 4 elements as a home maker, since she uses fire to cook, water to clean, wind to cool things down when something is hot and earth which resembles the produce she uses for cooking. What about, Andou? Well, since he is more bark than bite, it wasn't surprising that his "Black and Black" is only a display piece. There is also the student council president, Mirei Kudou, who is envious, so it wasn't a surprise that is to take the powers from the user.

Good start. I find it hilarious how the ones who wanted powers the most are the ones who always get shafted, whilst the ones who don't really care about having powers or not are the ones who become the OP boss charas. I guess it balances things out.

Overall this reminds me of another manga which I was reading about a useless boy esper who's power was to bend spoons, whereas his classmates were like invincible or something. Still, it's an enjoyable fantasy SOL so it's all good with me.

Good songs, decent animation, and I love how everything is so chill. Hopefully the Dark and Dark evolves into something useful later on. I don't really enjoy watching the guy be the "damsel in distress".

Chuunibyou thing is not actually new , as everyone knows.

Still it was fun to watch.

Andou's power might have hidden power or something even though it seems useless now. We will see in next episodes.

Gonna keep watching !

The world was created 4000 years ago.... not 13 billion.


Other than that, to people saying this is generic/cliche.... This is 90x more original than most of the other stuff people call 'original'.... It has some cliche elements, but the whole combining of those elements makes it unique, unlike all those other harem shows which are essentially copy and paste of each other. Needless to say I only saw a single episode so I may be wrong and it will end up being a load of cliche s***. Anyways, cliche =/= bad, things are cliche or overused for a reason, and the reason being - why change it if it works? (or more like, why change it if we get more profit out of it?)

In any case, I had been positively surprised by this anime, I wasn't expecting much (maybe a bit cause TRIGGER....) well its certainly different to other Trigger anime. Furthermore, I really like the MC (which is suprising, I hate 90% of all MCs, and 99.9% of Harem anime MC's...., the 00.1% being Keima Katsuragi if you seek the answer.)

Really disappointed that the main character is just so horrendously useless I will give it another episode or two if he doesn't improve by then I will drop it. The jokes about his power became real bad real quick and hopefully they don't beat it more to death then they did already.

5.5/10 for this episode.
First half was f-annoying.
Daaku Fureemu Masutaa
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

Let's see... I can't really ignore the super tiny references from chu2 (Dark Flame Master) and Steins;Gate (Hatoko's uniform style and how Tomoyo's powers were specifically described). But I guess, overall, it was interesting.

Hatoko and Chifuyu's Loli-chan's powers were... Um... too OP while Tomoyo's at the average then Takanashi's at the lower than average and finally, Ju-kun's sucked.

Pretty sure that there will be some sort of, possibly, big comeback for Jurai since he's introduced as basically useless in this ep; like he's the only one who can do this and the only who can save that and maybe, most likely, his powers has its reason to why it's pft useless. It's almost always like that wwww

Welp, idk, maybe I should tune in for other episodes tho I'm not the type who always yearn for something new. So yea, feels kinda' bit nostalgic here so yea.

Tomoyo, Chifuyu and Hatoko have godly powers. I'm quite jealous. Way to go for showing them off in an awesome way. I'm not convinced that Andou's power can't do shit. There must be something it can do. But that name though: Dark and Dark. Sounds awesome to younger kids. Although it doesn't make any impact.

3/5

Of course as the beginning of the series, I expected much more bombastic, this stuff is that instead?
Luckily we're talking about Trigger ...
Episode that does not say much then, the narrative is presented moe charge anywhere and with stereotypical characters.
The only nice thing is the view humor in the narrative, for the rest there is nothing.
The plot is not yet clear to me, the openig, the ending and the OST, the judge soon.
For now my vote is 5/10!

My god, are you an idiot? Rome wasn't yet established 4000 years ago.... There even were no Romans, or what was going to become the Romans there yet (culturally/ethnically).
They banged shota boys in Ancient Egypt though. And NO, you can't just spew lies and call it a joke. I call it bulls***. Although I concede, the world might've began 6000 years ago, but still 4000 is closer than 13 billion.....

silly religions aside... you're a few billion years off on earth's creation .... between 13-14 billion years for the universe and around 4.5 for the Earth... unless you're one of those crazy religious types that believe dinosaur bones and lunar rocks were placed here by Jesus to test us... lmao

One of the more promising starts of the season and the first truly funny anime so far. The premise is definitely unique.. definitely mocking the shounen genre plus Hatoko and Chifuyu's battle was probably better than most shounen battles lol..

The MC said their powers are hax but Tomoyo takes the cake, her power is pretty much the same as Dio Brando. not to mention the student council president is basically Kuroro Lucifer XD

In any case their chuuni acts were funnier than Rikka's, Andou was especially hilarious when he reminisced about saying good morning and good night to his power XD (I mean WTF lol)

Dinosaur bones were obviously placed here by Jesus to test us, denying it is denying Jesus, you will go to hell if you deny it, so better accept it bro. Accept Jesus in your life, reject him and burn eternally in hell.

That was average, but I enjoyed it. Especially the mc, he reminds me a little of okabe from steins;gate with the lamest super power ever.


I was wondering why no one has noticed that I mean he sounds just like Okabe

I thought this was okay little to generic but other than that I'll keep watching.

I wouldn't say he sounds just like okabe, but there is a resemblance between the two.

Anyway, we all agree there's something more to the mc and his power, and I thought his power might be the ability to give powers. I'm probably off, but in the beginning, we see a light come out of his palm, and suddenly everyone has powers. Then again that doesn't explain how that other girl got powers.

I certainly hope so. The first episode is pretty generic, but it could get better later on. If everything was determined by its first episode, Steins;Gate would be a slow boring show, sword art online would be amazing, Death Note would be about a righteous hero who is making the world a better place and so on. I'd say it's too early to judge this show.

Don't know what to say about this episode TBH.
And can't believe this was animated by Trigger, the art of their previous works were totally different compared to this one.
Ability to control time, creation, elements and return things to original state for the girls and the male MC only got that useless tiny fire out of his hand? Talk about unfair..! What's the purpose of him being in this anime then? For comic-relief?
Maybe keep watching this because of Trigger.

Really liking the premise... it was a bit predictable that the main character has a useless power. (Reminds me of Rising Rydeen)

Since there is that mysterious guy in the end, seems like this will become a mix of the usual school club element with these superpowers that does battles. I wanna see them use more of their superpowers on more mundane stuff. Hahaha.

Incredibly mediocre, but what I'm going to do with this show (as I did with Kill la kill too) is turn my brain off, don't take it seriously and enjoy the fun of it. Pretty funny I guess.
