I dropped this series at episode 5. But, now that it's over, I must once again give special mention to the OP. Probably one of the best heavy opening songs I've ever heard.

The kiss would have been better if they didn't ass-shot Sio during it. Normally I don't really have a problem with the occasional fan service but here it took me away from the cute moment. 5/10 for me, mainly because I felt that the eps with Princess-tachi were uninteresting.

People not showing enough RESPECT for the DEAD MAN around here.

Cool finale. Aftermath was a bit fanservicey but that's not coming out of nowhere so that's okay. Episode 11 was the climax for me. Would have also liked to know more about the other platoons (Van Gogh, Cesar...), but I guess you can only do so much things in 13 episodes. Design of the series was unusual but I like what they did with the colors. 7/10, would watch again.

Surprisingly, I was skeptical about picking this up at first but I'm glad I did. Its been better than the other show about Nobunaga this season. Overall, 7/10.

Satisfying ending, a perfect kiss by the way :D.

I like how they simultaneously defeated those big aliens at the end of their operation, pretty good sync if you ask me.

What's not to love about the comedy in the 2nd half XD.

7.5/10, the art, and animation, was not that appealing and the dark images of the show tends to be a little distracting from viewing it. Still it was a good show.

Yeah this ending was surprisingly satisfying.
Maybe because all the other ones this season were terrible...

I loved that Sio was the one that got the nosebleed. I really like her though I still think her voice is awful.

I'm inclined to say that the flashback about Florence Nightingale being Jack the Ripper was not bad.

haha hunter emerged as the final winner, but still need more work to get the girl

a kiss to end it all is quite fitting, this show still has potential such as charaters in other platoons

until the next invasion then :)

don't know why this show is so underrated, this is one of the decent anime for this season...

animation is not so good, but action scenes, characters, and DAT OP is great! 8/10

I never truly felt this building up towards a major battle. They just kind of blew up more aliens. The Nightingale deal seemed right the hell out of nowhere, so what was powering Adam this whole time? I found that whole thing to be a bit insulting, personally.

OML! They just re-wrote the hell out of history. Florence Nightingale was Jack the Ripper? I can't...
Still, I would love to see a 2nd season to see how Sio copes with her new romance with Adam.

Satisfying end, don't see a season 2 happening unless they do something cheesy like a main attack force from space or something


well they could "re-do" the series, like introduce the other characters/gene holders. like the battle scenes or something when the first two/three platoons were busy fighting the main battles. because they mentioned a fourth and a fifth platoon fighting out there. then again that would take away the "Nobunagun" aspect of the anime.

ok so I only have one problem... why was there romance in it!? there are no romance tag and what what's more this is shounen for fuck's sake not shoujo!.. I don't wanna see some teenage girl being in lovey-dovey and shit.. come on! I wouldn't actually mind it if the protagonist was Jack the Reaper but he wasn't...and why was the gene holder of Nobunaga had to be a girl anyway?? dammit. If it's action it has to be a male protagonist! not unless if it'll be someone like Revy from Black Lagoon

anyway I was satisfied with what I've seen and even though the colors change in fight scenes and it annoyed me at first well it kinda grew on me soo..

6/10

PS: thank God they didn't pull this romance shit in Kill la Kill... it would've killed the thrill and awesomeness of that anime.

Ha, I guess I'm am just a sucker for that sappy stuff... 'cause that kiss alone raised my score from a 7 to an 8.

Lol @ Sio having a nosebleed.

The episode itself wasn't spectacular, but it did have a lot of hilarious character interaction this episode. I'd definitely like to see a second season.

Well, as expected, the only time I wanted an open ending we get a kiss. The basic idea was nice, but wasted potential everywhere, the story is done to that and the characters aren't that engaging. 4/10.

4/5

I promote this series is not for the graphic quality and also for the technique, here is the sufficiency, but he was over the top expectations.
From the key visual art and the staff employed there I could have sworn that it came out as an anime series that just ended, especially in the last four episodes, the focus was definitely on the top for the air that he was taking the story and narration.
Plot that has done its job well, discrete narrative.
I would say for now quite a 6.5/10 if it is earned, I wonder if they make an S2 even better.

pisses me off that there is no second season purely because there isn't a conclusion to the whole war thing. sure they won the final battle but they haven't destroyed them all. as long as their is still a singular EI they haven't 1. the show was great though and i am really just annoyed at the lack of a proper conclusion. for a season finale at was awesome but as a finale of the show it is kinda disappointing. sorry you had to listen to me rant and i know there is no more source material but i just annoys me. i apologize for bad grammar if there is any.

I must say that I quite liked this anime, I'm not even sure why it even has this rating but one thing is sure is that I liked it quite a lot! From the characters to the art style they all had something unique and that what I really liked about this anime!

All in all a great anime as it's quite intense when it comes to action and the overall concept is pretty decent developed as well! All in all a great watch!

Hahaha people were getting sandbagged! Yo! A kiss at the end! Such a cute ending. I liked it although I think I'm done with Nobunaga. I still don't know why he's so great or well know.

so jack the ripper was actually this old lady in this universe who was trying to save mankind. So the two girls went to molest sio and sio boob size seems to keep changing. Vidoc is still a giant prick in the end. random kiss is random and didint really feel deserved. Besides that this was a fun little show.

The visuals were the probably the most interesting part of this after the enemies and their behavior. I liked Shio quite a bit, but all of the side characters were garbage; I don't know if they were trying to attract a female audience or what the fuck happened there (not that this attracted much of any audience). Wasn't a badly constructed show at all, but it wasn't that much fun either, with some elements that I found to be off-putting.

This was a very good, forgotten action show that nobody seems to have watched. It has a really nice charming art style, interesting visual presentation throughout, the consistency is good and the scenes were on point.

I really love it's just action packed all the way through, the plot evolves beautifully and by the end everything feels very satisfying and well earned. The characters were fun to watch, they had a surprisingly refreshing feel to them.
