Smasher said: Roflmao!Some development on the SaitoxLouise pairing, I loved how he was getting pushy at the end! He really would like to tap that ass. :-P . Anywho, I really liked how it started. As quoted before "damn maid". Watching this has made me want to watch season 1 and 2 again (I forgot a lot of what happened, spent the first 10 minutes trying to remember all that happened) |
  |
| Great episode! Saito was great. Louise wants to stay a vergin for ever or somthing? Oh who knows, Saito's a player! I loved every minute of this episode. It was worth the wait hope they can keep this up!:) |
| "Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise" |
| That was a pretty decent start for a brand new season. XD |
| Interesting beginning. The new opening is great. The whole episode was excellent, can't wait to see Tiffania in ep 2 ^^ |
| Great start!, this season looks very promising after a somewhat disappointing 2nd season. |
 |
| Loved it, cant believe saito turned down nobiliy. he just had to mention the elf's breast size, hasnt he learned yet that anything like that pisses off louise |
 |
| First half of Ep - moderate interest. Another void user. Expected/10.5 Second half - k. Weren't they married? Seriously? Did everyone just forget? Wouldn't this make him a noble through marriage. |
| the long wait paid off, it absolutely did not disappoint! |
     |
| Loved the episode, was finally able to settle my Zero no Tsukaima urges...for about 5 minutes.... NOW I NEED TO SEE EPISODE 2!!! RAAAAAAAWR! |
| Redeemed this series from season 2, easy. Less fanservice and more development/character is the way to go. |

| I certainly enjoyed this episode. It looked good, and i really like how we're getting into the void stuff. I <3 how Tabitha blushed in the OP. |
 |
| pretty decent start. I like how this series is centered more around Louise and Saito starting to act as a real couple. I was getting sick of all the abusive repetitive jokes from the first two series so its nice to see them actually acting like a real couple now...well for the most part. Second, I'm happy how they tried to bring some closure to unanswered questions from the first two seasons. For example how they said the war ended. I'm still pretty disappointed that other major plots from the last two seasons are still missing and unsolved. For example the ring for the lady of the lake. Overall I think this series if gonna be pretty good. I'm hopping Saito and Louise progress more romantically as the series goes on. |

| Poor Saito. He just wants some lovin (at night) |
| At least they're finally being a little honest with each other. This looks like it could be better than S2 but not as good as S1, but its really hard to judge from just one episode. Overall a good first episode. |
| does anybody know when the next episode is released? |
| Exactly the same as season 1 & 2. But I think that Louise is getting more irritating as the story unfolds, she was particularly awful this episode. Oh, and the letter in French was SO off, nothing made sense, I'm pretty sure they used babelfish to translate that. At some point, I expected Saito to fuck Louise, then bang the princess/Agnès and go on with every girl in the show, but I remembered that it was Zero no Tsukaima and not School Days, so we'll have to watch 13 episodes of platonic relationship with (artificial) hardships and reconciliations between a noble tsundere with no character development whatsoever and a basic young harem male character to finish on a pseudo-happy ending with a new victory over the big boss Joseph and maybe - maybe - a kiss. Hmmm, I'm dissapointed. Still it's Zero no Tsukaima, a good and entertaining series, just to watch once and discard afterwards, nothing less, nothing more and it knows exactly how to do just that. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Yay, the plot is going somewhere! I hope the rest of the series will be this good. Will continue watching. Louise x Saito = <3 |
 |
| i think Louise grew more beautiful than ever.. i really like the first part.. they are soo lovey-dovey.. i wish they would continue it soon.. LOL.. i really missed the characters soo much. i had a nice feeling after watching this episode.. hooray for the 3rd season.. i hope it would get better.. |
     |
| The ending of the OP was funny. Does it remind you guys of Cpt. Falcon from SSBB? |
 |
| It was alright. Deja vu: more of Saito getting blown up by Louise, more of Louise getting angry at Saito for no particular reason. Yadda Yadda. :| 3/5 from me. |
 Felli disapproves of this thread. |
| Oh lord. My sad. It is huge. Incredibly predictable episode. All this blabbing about 'Don't leave me!' and 'Leave me alone!'. I really hope they'll add some amusement to this season or I'll end up disappointed, and very much so. I still have hopes though, the first season was good and the second one so-so. Metroid_Ex said: Season 2 Saito = One of my least favorite characters, I hated him. He as butchered. Turned into a sick pervert. Oh yes, what the ass was that about? If they do that again I'll get really nasty with the scores of this season. It ruined this anime so. WinterNightsFall said: It was alright. Deja vu: more of Saito getting blown up by Louise, more of Louise getting angry at Saito for no particular reason. Yadda Yadda. :| 3/5 from me. Ditto. Sums it up pretty well. |
    |
| Yay, SS-Eclipse goodness! Episode was alright, I enjoyed seeing those two again and say what you want, they seem closer than they did in then last season. Even if it wasn't much that changed. I don't really like the music so far but I enjoyed the episode. They seem to focus on other things the last season lacked so I'm satisfied with this first episode. Looking forward to more of course. |

| Pretty good episode. The ending was going pretty well (rape time! xD), but I hated that it in the same old tsundere way =/ |
cyruz said: +1Yay, SS-Eclipse goodness! Good start to the season, a bit of romance, a bit of action, a bit of drama and a bit of tsundere Louise doing what she does best. |
 |
| A great episode. Though a lot happened all at once in this episode it wasn't stifling. Looking forward to more. |
| Awesome start! Not to mention that we've got an SS-Eclipse epic combo! |
 |
| I just watched the first two seasons and have finished up to ep 3 of the current one but really it's the first episode I wanted to comment on. What happened to getting married? I thought that was suppose to have meant something to the characters? You'd think that at the moment in your life when you wish to marry someone you would think of them as at least your equal? Or even of the same species. I do like the series but I am tired of the stagnant relationships. How many times do those two need to swear to each other before they start acting like a couple who has sworn to each other? I was so hopeful the first couple times it happened that I had found a series where the two main characters would form something more then a frustrating joke for 26 episodes. Oh well. *sighs* |
| Kind regards Sidoen  |
| I wondered about the marriage as well :\ You'd think that would work as a contract eh? Anyway, Louise <3 Good start. |
 |
| Ahaha! I've enjoyed it a bit. It's a decent start for a new season! Yeah! ^^ But anyways, there are too many ecchi parts in this season. LOL! The very very first part of the episode is so epic; wow! HE CAN'T STAND IT! ROCK IT BABY! |
     |
| Great episode, but I really lol'ed at: "I hope Saito notices my explosion!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1sS1TmXF38 |
     |
| yay, i finally was able to see this after such a long while after downloading it. sad to see the way eclipse-ss named louise francoise lu bland de la valliere i actually thought they were going to stick with le blanc i gotta say, it was so nice to see one of my favourite tsunderes back, and now in upscaled HD :) saito seems more confident now... and... he seems like he wants more out of louise xD twist about saito losing his runes... we'll see what happens next. nice to see saito fight without gandarf powers. and chevallier.... huh interesting to see the brain of god now and at the end... it was nice to see the tsuntsun side of louise kick in again :) |
     |
| Most people seemed to love this episode, but I'm not sure. It looks like more of the same as season 2. I was hoping for an improvement. But there is still plenty of time for this series to win me over, so I'll just wait and see. |
| Your search on "Oran Solus" returned the following quotes: "Oran Solus? I know him. What a wanker. He still owes me a tenner." Oscar Wilde "Oran, you're so intelligent and awesome <3" Bakayaro "Oran's sexy." LolitaDecay "Oran is a sophisticated penguin." Drybananna "Oran is a Hand-Eye you faggots." EddieSpaghetti "Oran for Prime Minister." the_prime_one "Oran is all that is stated in his sig and more." orbitzz |
| This was almost a good episode, but those damn writers can't resist having the same ending again and again. Seriously, the whole time, I was thinking "whoa, this is way better than the last two seasons", and then...oh no, they had to do that again. So lame D: I think the biggest problem with this series is that the characters aren't changing much. The problems still arise because they're not open about their relationship...as in, Saito is enjoying the harem too much and Louise is the biggest tsundere EVER, so nothing is changing. It's up to this season to fix that. If it does what it should and meets my expectations, it'll be awesome. Oh, but the opening is the best so far I think. Also lmao, she's finally given up on calling Saito a dog. Water flea rofl...now I understand that reference in Toradora. |

| Yes quite the same ending, just when I thought Saito was going to get some and Louise would be all quiet, reserved and cute. Didn't happen though. Oh, well this episode was enjoyable enough, the series is sure to deliver more ZnT goodness. |
Trineas said: Tsun-Tsun Dere-Dere Calm down everyone, it's just the same as season 1 and 2... you mean TSUN TSUN TSUN TSUN TSUN TSUN.. dere. :D Hmm This plot, oh hey look we're you but.. EVIL! got me off to a shaky start lets hope it hashes out better than that later on down the road. Saito losing his runes is a good touch though |
    |
| The only thing I was really able to enjoy was the improvement of the animation from the second season. Also, the ED is the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Anyways, Louise is starting to get on my nerves. This is the third season! It's time to show some dere-dere lovin' to Saito already, damn. She just needs to accept that she's in love with Saito already. Ugh. Poor Saito. All he wants is just a little sex from Louise and instead he gets blown up. Saito should just hook up with Henrietta. I'm sure she'd be real nice to him. And then maybe we'd have some progress! |
| I was hoping for a little more but overall was pretty good |
 |
| I'm only disappointed that Saito had to refuse the title of Chevallier :( That litte b**ch couldn't call him dog if that happened :/ |
 top 3 anime: Code Geass | One Piece | Death Note |
| And thus story of Masochist Saito and Sadist Louise flows on in 3rd series .. nah kidding :P maybe :P |
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| *breathes out* That was amazing. Loved this first episode, brings back so many memories. Ahhh I love the Zero no Tsukaima series. :3 |
 |
| I took a break from the series for a while and i forgot how much i liked it, great first episode and i cant wait to watch the rest. |
| Well, I wasn't a huge fan of the second season but this episode seemed pretty promising. I mean, it ended once again with the "well, our relationship made progress until it was undone by a single moment" scenario which was a little disappointing. But, I guess this series is not going to stop using that ending so I am getting used to it. Still, I liked this episode overall. |
| Whatever happened to them being married is that not a bond that can never be broken this is frustrating THEY ARE MARRIED It's like this fact was forgotten completely. |
