wow...I don't know what to say other then wtf was that blue thing lol. This episode brought some much needed suspense and answers but at the same time brought loads of new questions. I really cant wait till the second season now.

So somehow the dark knight is related to Hyaweh..Is the dark knight supposed to be the kid in the first episode that fell in love with the original princess? If so then that must mean he ended up having Hyaweh with the originally princess which would make Hyaweh the real king lol. *head explodes* ahhh so many things I want to know!!!

the blue thing was definitely weird. But yay for Hyaweh x Precia. the underwater kiss was pretty cool. As for the dark knight, i believe he is irrelevent to the guy in the past princess story.


Overall: 7/10

Did this series make a lot of sense? ^^; The middle part was cool with the Sister Hell story, but outside of that .. seems a lot was missing. And I barely remember the whole prologue of information that episode 1 had.

Maybe there's a lot more in the game that just wasn't fleshed out in the anime. Seemed to be more fanservice than was necessary.

I was thinking the same thing. The anime seemed really broken with a lot of essential pieces of information left out to an audience that isn't familiar with the game. The Dark Knight - I feel he's an extremely important part of the whole story, being possibly related to Hyaweh, but in the anime, he was more of an afterthought. But overall, relatively enjoyable series with interesting character and weapon design.

Overall rating I would give is 6.5/10, so I guess that rounds up to 7.

Howdy all, just an FYI, but I am currently translating the Prism Ark game, which is awesome. As for the anime, it was utter crap, and it's completely incomparable to the game. They barely scratched the surface of the game plots, only slightly hinting at the stories for each of the characters. The side characters in the game, namely the three guys (who each get very detailed stories in the game) are shunted off to one side; instead, we get the pointless Bridgette and bodyguard squad. This last episode was a travesty, with the producers attempting to add basically the entire main game plot into 10 minutes, but failing horribly. I'll leave out game spoilers, but suffice it to say that the anime is nothing like the game, except in the loosest sense. Don't even get me started on the anime-only crap they added...

I give the anime 3/10, and the dubious honor of being the worst show I have completed.

Anyway, here's a link to the game translation project.

The game do seem pretty interesting, but what about Prism Heart? As Prism Ark is a sequel to Prism Heart, wouldn't we be missing some parts of the plot, or does Prism Ark have a completely new story?

But anyways, since I was planning to get my hands on the game it's great news.

That is completely true, you can understand it from the conversation, as well as when the first time The Knight tryed to attack Precia, and he stopped when he saw the Neckless thing, and he seemed to be having memory problems...

I'm guessing the story is kind of like Trinity blood, where something happened to technology and we just haven't learned what yet.

A pretty good tale but this series wasn't structured well at all. The ending was very, very rushed. They didn't even show Hyaweh and Percia's battle for the Royal Knight title. Took too much time on fanservice and then scrapped the plot in the last episode.

this anime could hav had sooo much potential and could have been totally amazing, but unfortuneately it didnt explain everything and the plots got a bit lost side-tracked and confusing. overall tho - pretty good. hope theres a 2nd season!!

Never played the game, just watched the anime. That being said, I had a lot of issues with it. The last episode was too rushed which is stupid because the rest of the anime was rather slow. From the storyline, I could tell that it had a lot of potential, but the execution wasn't so good.

I'm guessing that the history of the princess that went missing was slightly altered to protect the Prince - that being Hyaweh. The dark knight is Hyaweh's father.. but does anyone remember if he had those crazy red eyes when he saved Hyaweh the first time? I don't remember. Maybe Dark just went crazy or is brainwashed. Just speculations :)

I know all the who's and the like but that's probably thanks to wikipedia more than anything.

I would love a second season of this show as I think despite it's many flaws that it was a good show. I loved watching it, loved the characters,and loved the artwork.

That was way too many loves. My english is going down the drains.

Subs sucked (AEN), yea they're better than osa but they were still crap half the time. I wish mellow subbed more than just two ep's.

I can see how they could make another season but then again I can see them leaving this as the ending. probably because the story really wasn't that developed (or maybe "deep" would be a better word choice) for me to care about a thoroughly closed ending or not, which is rare for me since I usually crave second seasons for everything.

The characters weren't really anything special either, Bridget was the only one I really liked and she got tied up and forgotten about in the end.

All in all I give it a "good" didn't dislike it but it wasn't anything memorable. so I'm satisfied.

I love this anime...not

I watched it only because it was shown at the end of ZnT and the main seiyuu is Yui...

though not really disappointed but for at least I enjoyed half of the show...

the first episode became pretty much useless just like Suzumiya Haruhi S2 episode 1 which was not really expanded even though it was an element..

I actually like the ending of this anime
some things didn't make sense to me like the sattelite and how priecia and hyaweh turned into that kickass blue thing xD
but it was a pretty good episode and im glad they kissed again ^_^
7/10 for me :)

Prism ark was pretty good, i rushed it in a day...what really put me off was that last episode,i was expecting to see an explanation and/or continuation of what we have seen in the prologue in episode 1, but it didnt happen. This anime didnt really use it's full potential. I would be happy to hear a thorough explanation of the magic system there, the full background of hayawe and the dark knight, what are those angels and how they are created,what did that hell sister see in that lab with floating things(it was shown for about 10 seconds),and also wth is wrong with the technology there,they use horses in one episode, a car in another(the white one,when they went to their first mission) and now a satellite?i mean,come on.
overall,i wanted to give the show a 9,but ill give it an 8 because things remain unexplained.

everything was literally rushed through, the beginning and ending of this anime was not done in a good way. and it doesnt seem like they want to come back to this horrible anime that they did.
but there was actually progress with the romance with this anime, which alot of others cant seem to do, so igive this anime a 6/10.

This. I can barely believe it: this episode was actually pretty good.

All right, after 10 episodes of so much bullshit my standard got a bit low. Though it may not have been good, it certainly had the correct elements that the rest of the anime should have worked upon to make this anime much more enjoyable. Actually, watchable.

One thing I noticed is that Prism Ark has many concepts other recent shows have been building over. Of course, it's pretty generic so we can't truly say for sure they got it from here, but so many details make it hard to be seen as a coincidence. At the very least, this anime must have been a reference.

Well, I kept delaying this show for quite a long time. "Tomorrow", "next week", "next month"... It's quite a surprise to look at my list and see that I've been watching it for 2008 days. Yep, more than five years. Holy shit.

Was quite a bit of a torture, but I'm glad I've finished it. I wonder if I should try the visual novel... My goal will be to finish it in less than 10 years LOL.

Karin is so beautiful in that dress.

Priecia has a point. Most guy are the same and we always look at their outward appearance first. We aren't really to blame though since its all evolution.

Marquis is that strong? he beat Meister 1v1.

I like the MC. He confessed and had a kissing scene with the heroine. Priecia is beautiful and I don't mind her playing hard to get. This needs a S2. 7/10
