There's my opinion of this ep.

I mean honestly, this episode was nothing but fanservice, bad exposition, bad exposition, more bad exposition, really, really bad pacing, and a plot that could have been liveable, but wasn't in the face of all the above issues.

I suppose the first rotten apple of the season has shown itself.


Nothing But fan service? Were we watching the same show? It didnt even have that much fan service...The pacing wasn't bad either, i dunno where people get this from. It....went....how it was supposed too? Is pacing another reason people think they hate a show...im gonna guess it is. Pacing can be really slow, like those billion episode shonens, but i dunno about everything else.

The first rotten apple of the season was bakugan, sir.
I guess when someone hate something, even the devil king do not have the power to convince ^^.The pace is kinda slow yet the story went kinda fast(well alot to introduce such as character,environment and etc) before he is known as Devil king,but after that the pace went quite fast i think

Well, in all fariness it's not the worst godawful ecchi anime i've ever watched, that award still goes to Dokuro-chan, but godawful ecchi is still godawful ecchi.

Definitely enjoyed it. Not sure I'm really at all into the ecchi they've thrown in there (in fact, I know I'm not), but the whimsicality of the narrative seems enough to pull me in for another episode or three. I'm a little worried it might turn out to be a harem, with Hattori being the requisite Naru Narusegawa character. Either way, I'll keep watching for now.

I agree with a few other posts; Too many big events happened that it didn't feel right.
1. He makes a friend by helping her grandma and fascinating her about his dream 2. He finds out he is a demon king 3. He is introduced to the class 4. Fights over class pres. 5. Fights 2 minutes later into the show, with the same person proceeding with a second explosion. 6. Who the heck was the floating girl who randomly appeared in the forest?
I did laugh a few times, but i hope it improves next episode.

It was good, I liked it. The action scenes looked especially nice. I'm just really, really hoping this series doesn't go overboard with the ecchi. Seriously, they're cartoons, I would rather they focus on the plot instead of drawing panties.

Plenty of different censors in this episode. A thing that said "minaide", half of the screen being covered by blackness, and a smudged/blurred sideboob. It's strange because I saw some upskirts that weren't censored, and Hattori's boobs were all over the place. Argh, I'll never understand censoring, no point in thinking about it. DVDs. I hope Ryuumaru subs the ATX version if it's uncensored.

Anyway, I enjoyed this episode. It was fun and the action towards the end was nicely animated. The way they got to know their future jobs really reminded me of Harry Potter as well, lol. I hope the pacing slows down a little in the next episode, too much stuff happened in this one.

At first glance I did not like the animation style as I thought it was very "choppy" in the beginning of the episode, however the general story and characters made up for it. Though I believe a lot of the ecchi was unnecessary and/or forced, it didn't "ruin" the episode for me. I am interested to see where this is going considering I have never read the manga.

hehe.

i thought the anime was really funny, enjoyable, and entertaining. i have high hopes for it for the up coming episodes.

i agree with Otaku7 about the ecchi was unnecessay and some what forced in scenes, but didnt ruin the anime as a whole.

The story is good but I find it cheesy as in demon lord then everyone kill him because he is a danger to society but turns out he is not and suddenly a evil power takes him over only to be stopped by his friends kind of thing. The really interesting key points for me: magic types used, systems of magic, map of this world and mechanical/tools used in this series. So far I have seen a wooden blade imbued with magic from the user and that would be Junko herself. Torii is interesting also as a teacher since she can do protective magic. Soga herself was not bad at the end. Miwa looks like a ass licker (literally I only see him as someone who know information that might be helpful to Sai). Sai on the other hand looks like Mister I get all the girls, protect them and try to change around things. Among the things......I was curious about the rail tracks being magical and how do they work exactly=>

Oh really? I did not know when someone touches you can get pregnant do any of you?=>
Interesting fan service of Junko seems to be the high point of this series=>


Personally the censors are annoying simply because there three types......the sticker one, the blackness one and even the blurr....not all of it is censored since I also saw some part of Junko that were no censored like her underwear part and some breast parts where were covered.At least the demon looked evil enough here=>


Oh well GIF time....a good start of GIF making: Junko fan service=>

Junko attacks=>

Sai Akuto's attacks and they were brutal mass effects!=>

Soga Kena GIFs=>
BTW I don't trust Korone that observer at the end nor those 4 girls around in beginning talking about Sai.....Oh yea Junko....what is that Suhara thing exactly and where does it come from....I am interested in that too.

Don't try to apply anime to real life. (Again)

Also, what's wrong with Korone anyway? : p

BLASPHEMY.

To be fair, they begin kinda similarly, but that's mostly because both remind me of Harry Potter more than one reminds me of the other.

And I doubt this will ever reach the levels of awesome that Negima (the manga, obviously) reached. Or even come close.

But no, I don't drink. And I wouldn't even think about smoking a cigar. Even less would I try communicating in French xD

Well, if by "bad guys" you mean the government (or whatever), of course she works for them, since she's an observer sent to watch the dude in case he'd take a turn towards becoming a demon lord...

Apart from the rather high production values, it's more generic than generic. Everyone complains about B Gata H Kei but this one is actually far worse since it tries to be serious. Dropped without a second thought.

For some reason, it seemed to be a very comical and light-hearted version of Bastard. The way that Sai seems to be heading towards seems to make me think he's a more passive version of Dark Schneider possibly (reference to him flying on that dragon in the ED).

Well, I can say that Hattori was a little more level-headed in the manga.

Well even if you don't want to see any fanservise is still good news because the censoring was horribly made and the resold was in some cases having half of the screen going black with no reason and other crazy staff like that. I was annoyed not because i couldn't see her ass but because i had a black screen in my face. Seriously if you are gonna make such stupid censors that destroy the viewing then don't put ecchi scenes in the first place.

About the episode. I hated the overdose of girls appearing everywhere and the nudity being a little too forced on us.
Also am not especially fond of magic schools.(too Harry Potter for me and am no fan of his).
But strangely enough i kind of like the main guy, the whole demon lord idea and the way everyone reacts about him.
The episode was fast and i realy passed the time with out realizing so they are not making everything wrong although i have a bad feeling that it may turn out to be a very swallow show if they only concentrate at showing lot's of girls and fanservice with out promoting the scenario a little.

Exactly Monad and that is the same problem with Seikon no Qwaser but you know what? I think it remains to be seen how long it will be and also in a few episodes...this was too early to think how it turns out......

I hate to admit it, but it wasn't a complete waste of time.
The art and animation are pretty neat, what I really didn't expect.
Plot-wise, though there's really nothing refreshing or unexpected, they made it enjoyable and funny. I really can't say I didn't enjoy watching it even a little.

Anyway, I don't think anyone should expect something amazing from this, but rather a good way to spend your leisure time.
