| Those boobs, though. This show has been surprisingly decent so far to be honest. The comedy wasn't that bad, and the action is still rock solid. That ending, though. It seems like a nuts guy appeared. |
  |
| This episode made me like this series a lot more, it's quite comical but knows when to get serius. |
| That facial expression Justicei made reminded me of prison school XD GG J.C. Staff |
 |
| Good good. Really enjoyed this episode. The comedy goes well with the characters and the action was great |
| I rather enjoyed this episode. Decent visuals and character design as well as a little character building, also I liked that it also showed the kingdom that it mentioned last episode Also the logic I could come up with on why she said the trigger for his triggerless tattoo was blood was so that he could avoid fighting as a fight would make him wary of loosing blood which would make him feel like he is reducing the risk of activating it and actually reduce the risk of him activating it randomly as he wouldn't need it |

| There is still a lot of 2nd episodes to get to this week but from the ones I have watched. This has been my favorite so far. They've established the world, the villain has been shown. The characters are working and there is a lot of blood and death. This show should have a horror tag to it in my opinion XD. @Corny632 That is what I would call bonus ^.^. |
  |
| Well then, the awkward level of entertaining action continues. Gotta say that I do love the artwork and visuals but...I'm praying this doesn't wind up going the Big Order route. Is it me or is half the cast of this show just people they hired after Big Order finished production. The comedy and fanservice is a nice distraction but hopefully it won't take away too much from the story. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| At least the visuals are kind of stylish |
 |
| Am I the only thinking this show is chessy AF? lol like the plot is something you'd find in a D-tier movie. Still, it's not shit. Even oddly decent. I'll keep watching. |
| Je trempe mes cookies dans tes larmes. |
| Damn, that was actually really good, better than the first episode. It left me asking a lot of whos and whats. Who's Aryabhata? Who's that girl who took control of Touko? Who is that horny dude after Bluesy? What's going on? The look and feel of this show is unique, as well. 5/5 RedaJaNai said: Am I the only thinking this show is chessy AF? Nah, you're not the only one. I'm getting some Big Order vibes from this, but I like cheese. |
| To think there would ever be a PSP GO in an anime. THAT IS STRANGE. I guess there's some interesting development too. |
 |
| And plot is developing fast eh? I've seen princesses of all kind, but a murderous one with a serious conquering mindset that goes as far as murdering her own parents, is on a whole new level. Girl is crazy, yet again I bet that's only the tip of the Iceberg and we may get more revelations about that. MC is realistic, he gets he's in no normal position, that he can use the power he has for as much of a good as he can as he has been taught, yet he knows he cannot fully trust the Americans, all in all a good reaction. Izzy is an interesting girl (if we can really call her like that). She isn't overly comical, not also overly serious, more like, she teases people when she can, and beats them into submission when needed. The groping besides the ecchiness is hilarious (I mean a middle aged woman having a major complex about her own unaging body and having a girl much younger than herself having such "assets"). The assassins are real danger, they hold no punches and neither seem to hold back the fact they are evil. |
 |
| Dang Touko's got some bouncage there. Always thought Izzy's name was weird. Wonder if it is actually based of anything or the author just doing random shit. Still wondering how the anime will handle the censorship, and not just the ecchi kind, which get's pretty abundant later on but gore. Regardless, do enjoy how quickly the show jumps in. |
| Damn this show has lots of Sakuga....I can deal with the plot if they're consistent with this kind of animation. WTF?! She's making it sound like it's a bad thing....... Honestly with that smug look she's definitely enjoying her eternal youth that all girls crave. |
| Pretty decent follow up, Liked the episode. Really liking Izzy and Tom, Funny how she transferred into his school before he even accepted the offer. That boob fondling, Touko got them assets XD Lol at Seigi getting thrown out the window, There's even a pool below :o Seems like our antagonist is gonna be a princess, Wonder what she's trying to do. Action sequences remain really cool to watch, It looks like Touko was possessed at the end there. Tom got stabbed as well. Wonder if Tom will use his Tattoo to turn around the situation, Hope Touko comes out unscathed. |
 |
| So Tom who is voiced by the same guy as Gintoki get killed by a red headed girl with an umbrella. hmm |
| Honestly, a really good episode Im amazed at how much better this is than the manga |
| So much better than the first episode. Action and comedy were on point. Looking forward to next episode. I didn't pay much attention to the OP visuals last week so I didn't notice. It looks like every Tattoo is related with a unique monster or something which I found to be pretty interesting. Not sure if that's actually the case or not but we'll just have to wait and see. I really like their designs. |
 |
| Are we all just going to ignore that completely pointless fanservice scene in the classroom? Alright. |
| I’ve read up to chapter 35 of the manga (why not? It doesn’t take that long to read it), and just like the anime the pacing in the manga isn’t it doing it for me either. Plus, the manga gets worse as it goes on (nonsense on top of more nonsense, and not in a good way. Less martial arts, more supernatural, as well). MC being the worst offender. I do believe the anime makes the so called comedy moments that are in the manga a lot worse. It’d be great if they would dial that down. For matter fact, why is there even comedy in this? Frankly, I am still going to give this series a change to see if the anime fixes anything from the manga (pacing being one of them, although so far nothing). It’s wishful thinking, but you never know. Regarding the episode itself, well... it was an average and short build-up episode for the 2 upcoming short battles. - Bluesy suddenly transfers to school (it had to happen. We needed that “essential” childhood breast molestation by our female MC... because that’s comedy gold [/s]) - They "introduced" psycho R. R. Lurker and gloomy Iltutmish - We get a glimpse of princess-gamer Aryabhata (this not saying much, but she is my favorite character, so you could say, in one way or another, that I’m also staying just to see her as well). - Lurker attacks Bluesy - Iltutmish gets hold of Touko’s body and then umbrella-attacks otaku Tom, hurting and momentarily incapacitating him in the process Next episode should be the battle between Bluesy vs. Lurker and Justice vs. controlled-childhood friend Touko. Both fights will more likely be over by the end of it and move on onto the next nonsense scenario. P.S. They need to change the MCs names because they are ridiculous. |

on 
| the pacing is all over the place, so I'm not quite sure how to feel about this show. But its got me interested. also... DAMN SPOILERS |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| Her actual age is ---- That scene was so funny. :v Two episodes so far and this anime is already my favorite for this Summer season. I love Izzy's character design and her facial expressions too. Can't wait for episode 3 next week. |

| Another great fantasy series by J.C Staff |

Bluesy Fluesy has got to be the stupidest name I've ever heard. And the idea that an Army LT is given any respect or responsibility is lol. No, that didn't happen the way you describe at all. some homeless man gave me a glass looking thing and I got the power without even knowing what it was This show has some great faces I like both the main girls, this looks like the Big Order of this season maybe, but less aggressively awful |
 |
| Ugh, the humor and characters are just a complete turnoff for me. Dropped. |
| Pretty bad overall so far, I hope they stop with that unfunny comedy |
| what |

Pretty much same. Stopped reading manga after 10+ chapters cause it was not the best thing from the start and didn't get better. The CQC fighting scene 1st episode was really good so i thought that the fights might be worth watching. Well this episode didn't have any so to the next episode. And as the 1st episode same is for this - the comedy is the worst part, feels like the jokes are shoved in the plot for no reason. |

RediceRyan said: To think there would ever be a PSP GO in an anime. THAT IS STRANGE. I guess there's some interesting development too. Not just that, but looking at Tom's game collection more closely, you would see a Nintendo Wii, Xbox One and maybe a PS2/3? Either way, he's a gaming geek in my eyes! =) Although there was less fighting scenes compared to the first episode, the animation has improved. Same with the 3D CGI used in the fights and in others scenes too. Izzy's introduction to the school was funny. Even funnier was when she screwed over Seigi as well as groped his childhood friend too! Nice. =3 The story is getting more interesting. We already have two tattoo users who're after Seigi's trigger-less tattoo and return it to their master, who's already now a ruler of a kingdom that she easily annihilated. Hopefully, considering we're only 2 episodes in, Seigi and Izzy can win their respective fights and also save Seigi's friend too. Overall, this was a very enjoyable episode. =) |
| I quite enjoyed that episode. The MC names are even stupider that Heavy Object but the character designs are nice. It feels like a mix of Stray dogs and Magical Index. Pacing is an issue as everything just happened in one episode. Im not expecting much from this series but I think it could be enjoyable. Don't mid a bit on fan service either. |
| To bad it seams like this only get 12 eps, and the last two eps has been one chapter each. With this pacing we are going to have 12 chapters. There are 39 translated and like 50-60 in raw. |
| "Bluesy Fruezy" Nickname : "Izzy" Character Design : Pony Tail, Silver hair color. "Cool" >instant favorite. overall, great episode imo. i think it's getting more better. but with this pace and the connection between the tatoo, kingdom and the professor who put the tatoo on the MC hand in the first episode, i doubt this anime will get only one cour. well, let's just see. either way, i'm okay with it. but man, Izzy sure looks cool and hot imo without considering her age probably she is gonna be one of my fav girl of the season. the comedy part in the classroom was pretty generic (man, i have been saying generic for many times this week) i mean, i have see that kind of stuff more than 3 times so it didn't make me funny but that fanservice sure is well made xD sasuga J.C Staff~~ looking foward for the next episode. |

when? in raws or translated? answer in spoiler. |
 So she actually older than tom, so I'm guessing that the picture in her locket is her old self......so if she is starting to fall in love with Seigi, then that would make her a Loli MILF. So Touko got posses by some tatooed user, I don't know about you but will she be the new owner of the tatoo once Seigi kills the real enemy? |
 |
Didn't he mean the childhood friend? I dunno. Maybe I got the wrong impression. |
|
Kagami said: Why would I click that spoiler? RIP my logic. Anyway, I am liking this series so far! Same here, well f*ck. I like the series, it's my action pick so I hope next week delivers. Animation is pretty damn good too I am hoping Touko doesn't suffer the curse of the "childhood friend" early on. They seriously have terrible luck in anime/manga |
