I would never have watched this if the plot description were "Takayama Naoto has breasts smacking into his face all day, every day, and tons of girls want to have sex with him." I expect I'm not the only one, too. So I think they made the right decision not to throw out any attempt at plot. I actually didn't think this episode was that bad in terms of fanservice getting in the way of the plot, because it didn't get in the way of the plot. In case you're wondering, I'm referring to that thing where the idol first thought highly enough of the MC to give him some book, then was disappointed in him when she thought he would run away in the face of danger, and then ended up liking him when he proved her so very wrong. I'm also referring to the series of events related to the attempt on her life. Those were the plot. Maybe it's a plot that's somewhat fan pandering, but it was an actual plot beyond tits waving everywhere and it was decent enough to keep my interest for 20 minutes. I'm expecting (well, maybe hoping is a better word) that they'll introduce the overarching plot soon, since they're getting close to the halfway point and I refuse to believe they would outright lie about that in the description. Even though I just defended it, I think this show is kind of stupid and it's not particularly great or inspired. I don't hate it, the MC is okay, and the other characters are likeable enough, but that's the best I can say for it. Four episodes in and I still call the peach-haired girl Kotori because she looks nearly identical to Kotori from Gokukoku no Brynhildr. On the other hand, I can't wait for people to start complaining about how the protagonist is boring and girls shouldn't like him, because I can always point to this episode where he took a knife for someone as proof that he has unarguably good qualities.

Extremely everyman, boring, forgettable, completely undeserving of the harem he's getting, or any harem for that matter, and a poorly written character overall. katsu044 said: still don't get how Takayama gets all the bitches theres nothing remotely interesting about him guess hes just a lucky one lol not to mention he has Rito Falling syndrome in which he magically falls into boobs. Oh wait. It's already happening. Edit: Just realized MAL doesn't have a show length posted for this. They might not even be getting to the halfway point yet. |

| The plot is strong within this one :) opondica said: I would never have watched this if the plot description were "Takayama Naoto has breasts smacking into his face all day, every day, and tons of girls want to have sex with him."

| You know... this show isn't terrible, I mean, it's kinda bad but for some reason it's entertaining in like a...Captain Earth kinda way. |
VulgarFairy said: Dat fan service, nice spin on the beach episode and we get some trivia on the Izu Dancer, lovely. Went at a good pace. Rather like Noa Kashima, helps that she's being voiced by the perfection that is Minori Chihara. Takayama doing his duty to protect her. Only bad thing is Haruka and Sakurai didn't wear the swimsuits Iida picked out! Also Haruka sleeps naked, the important details have arrived. 5/5 Krackle said: They should just call the series "Oppai Wars!". Seems to be a more accurate title for this show... So we get one episode out of 4 with a fair bit of fan service and that suddenly means the previous 3 with a heavy, heavy focus on trains and railways are forgot about? Man you guys are weird. I think only episode 1 is more of a Rail Wars kind of episode. Probably the best episode so far. There's hardly any train stuff going on from Episode 2 onwards. This series is slowly "derailing" from it's origin from what I see. |
| Thank God. Minori Chihara didn't annoyed me in her new idol role. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| All the women in this show - 10/10 Fun episode, I love the beach ones. It was pretty funny how they played it off as some staged thing. Not sure if that was genius, or not. The art in this show is great, no questioning that. But man, they really need to work on the animation. The budget really shows in that respect. |

Please show me where the 90% fan service was in the first 4 episodes. It's like you've not even watched this show. 1 episode at the beach and a smidgen in the first 3 eps ≠ full of fan service or 'all about the oppai', pay attention! How do people not understand this? i'm sorry but if you can't tell how even episodes 1-3 relied heavily on fanservice i don't know what to tell you. all the girls walk around with their skirts inexplicably wedged up their inexplicably shiny asses. the camera is almost always angled to were a girls ass or breasts are in the shot whether she is one of the characters acting in the scene or not and the MC is constantly put in stereotypical fanservice situations. breast bounces everywhere.... look, i'm not even a person that categorically dislikes fanservice. i'll be the first to admit that i do watch and enjoy shows that are heavily reliant on fanservice. sexy girls are fun to watch. but when i come in expecting something a little more interesting and original, but most of what i get is fanservice (and lets be honest its not particularly fresh or well done fanservice) i can't help but feel fairly disappointed. there is an interesting show buried in the premise here, but the creators are too lazy or unconfident to let the show stand for what it is and so lean on fan service. is the show un-entertaining? no. i'll admit i'll probably continue watching it. but not at all for the reasons i originally checked it out. |
| trains butts trains butts trains butts trains butts |
| One of the better episode Minori Chihara as Nao is a plus I intended to drop the show, glad I didn't The simple theme is pulling me |
| With the combination of the beach and onsen this wasn't bad at all, but not about the railway sadly The added idol concert/bodyguarding was nice as well Well let the Random Wars continue |
| Found a bomb, arrested drug dealers, and protected a idol. Progress. |
 |
| Noa has a pretty cool character design, love her. One of the best character design for sure. The insert song wasn't bad, I liked the animation. This was fanservice done right imo. Noa = best girl. Hope she appears again. |
 |
| Naoto got to see Nao's naked butt. You lucky bastard. |
| I can't say the show is not kinda enjoyable, but the fanservice really is getting over the top here, like it has to compensate for something. |
  |
| It was about time they added the ecchi tag xD |
 |
| another shounen beach episode... However, the plot was okay in this one. |

| Takayama got lucky he put that stamp book there or else we'd be talking of Takayama in the hospital, possibly fighting for his life. I like how he quickly moved to stop the perpetrator, like a total leader. I think we were all trolled when the girls were choosing them swimsuits. Here I thought Haruka would wear a very revealing bikini lol. Noa x Takayama Hmm Noa probably has feelings for Takayama now. I'd like that pair up more than Aox or Haruka x Takayama. |
 |
| I've been seeing this a lot lately in anime.. you know when an idol appears and then she sings in a concert and stuff. I think it's a waste of time or.. they're promoting the song and the artist. Oh well forget those trains.. I've had my fill of bewbs and asses. Another chick joins the harem... *grins* |
 |
| 3/5 Wow, the rolling stock had more space than usual, we toast! XD Dear boys have no more excuses, all to make the competition for the state railways. If so the narrative continues, there will be a harem of 12 girls for Naoto. X°°D Plot now voted for the sole purpose of putting on display as much skin and girls in the show. A little history of the poor, lack of time for involvement and self-contained episodes do not help. Drawings and animations on the sufficiency. This anime is forbidden for pettanko would remain schockate! LOL |
 |
| Pretty lovely episode and damn that fan service :3 |
 |
| I must say.. the girls in this anime are really something if all else were mehh. XD The female design are worth the praise for sure.. lol. |
| I love Minori Chihara's voice, My thoughts on this show so far though - Its so bad its good + There is so much 'plot' it is fantastic. |
| drop /10 jap like watching and buying this shit really? fuck this gay earth |
 |
| When he fell on the idol chicks tits and cauth her manager too while she fell....Epic. I gotta say the idol is the cutest non hentai anime chick I have ever seen. At least in those moments when shes surprised. Otherwise shes a byetch |
| People talk about over-the-top fanservice... If this was the fanservice episode of this anime, it doesn't even deserve the ecchi tag lol The end was pretty priceless. Noa: I think I'm in love. Manager: With whom? Noa: WIth the protagonist of course, who else? lol |
| He actually fainted didn't he?really now?!Dropping this, Takayama is too dense and annoying, I cant stand his non-stop talk about train this and train that, ugh! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| damn MC even got a celeb to the harem, train doesn't stop! "I think I'm in love..." LOLWUT |
 |
| Great insert song! But Nao's talking voice is very different compared to her singing voice... Hoho~ We can finally see what's up with the mild nudity rating~ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
| A beach/idol episode, and obviously they're still in the Bronx so someone attempted to kill him with a knife (lol), pretty entertaining episode overall |
 |
| Beach episode aka boob episode, with fanservice and another girl fall in love with the hard working weakling. |
| Beach episoooode!! Its been a long time since the last beach episode from anime I watched. |
