Damn, that escalated quickly. Good to see everyone fight together including Natsuki-chan Natsuki I guess. It felt a bit fast though. Of course, Akatsuki gets a little fun time taste of blood again.

Not sure what I think of this final arc tbh. It's only 2 episodes so I wasn't expecting much development. The ending was something I kinda expected. Baka Akatsuki. Oh well, at least they made it through that. Gf dragon.

Here we are then. The final episode of Strike the Blood.

How's that for a paradox? Daughter is the one who helps get her parents together? Sort of, anyway. And she brings back a replacement for Yukina's weapon that took 20 years to develop after Yukina broke her old one, and thus presumably received the new one and... my head hurts, but I don't care.

Finally a strong ending to a story arc - and it had a little bit of everything in it. The endings are the one thing that's been a bit lacking in this otherwise brilliant fun series.

I can't wait to get my hands on the light novels... but they are STILL out of stock (or half of them are, anyway). WHY?

And Moegi is Asagi's daughter? I wonder who the father is.

And... What was Reina saying about Kojou dying? Except he can't die and isnt dead?

Empire of the dawn... Or empire of Akatsuki... As in Akatsuki Kojou...

Well all in all that was a really nice Anime, it kinda lacked on a story but all the character were very nice made, there wasn't even one I disliked, well maybe Himeragi got sometimes on my nerves but in the end she also is a nice charater.

As i heard that was the adaptation of a spin-off light novel of Strike the Blood, so I think 2 episodes were just fine but it would also have been nice, if this both episodes were included in an OVA.

After all Kojou is other than any other vampires, this is the reason why he is such a cool protagonist.

I will think about how to rate this Anime but I guess it's +7
I liked this episode so I'll rate it 5/5, because this episode was well made for the last episode.

And that ends Pantsu The Animation basically(with some shounen aspects incorporated).Well never expected this to be above average anyways so not upset,it did have it's decent moments too.Character weren't dislikable either 5/10.

Wouldn't be upset if this got a second season.

(Personally thought Tokyo Raven was way better in the long run though).

Seriously, why the hate on "no senpai, this is our fight" Its obviously part of they're about to kick major ass catchline just like touma says he'll break your illusion.

I enjoyed this quite a bit solid 8/10 Koujo has an empire in the future and both girls call him kun, are thy both his daughters?

I really liked how Asagi kept the island from sinking.

That's what it means by Akatsuki's (synonyms for morning) empire haha. I think it is referring to Akatsuki Kojou's harem!!!

Nice ending 8.5/10 ~ 9/10 (for the episode)

You will find that most people, including me, begs to differ.

8/10 for STB.

Lol XD Akatsuki has an empire in the future? Now that made me interested. I'd prefer a future arc over the present anytime :P

Well not bad. Ironically I thought this 2 ep arc had the best conclusion to an arc LOL XD The rest felt kind of rushed and meh.

The faces Kojou made this ep were pretty awesome. Finally he was drawn nicely without all the derp faces -.-

Lol'd at everyone esp Reina's reaction to Kojou biting Yukina in front of the audience XD

That gotta be awkward, like watching ur parents making out in front of u XDXDXD
Her reaction was funny.

And ofc cockblock for Asagi's confession with the phone getting cut -.-

All in all, good series. Could've been way better but okay I guess. 7.5//10

Loved the girls in this show though, esp La Folia, Asagi and Sayaka <3 :3

Wouldn't mind a second season. The world setting is pretty good. The execution was what's bad.

All their faces while Kojou sucked Himeragi's blood were priceless.

Lol they just had to add the panties scene :P

That Tee-hee at the end :3

Damn the island became huge 0_0 He definitely made his own empire :P

A second season would be welcome.

I definitely enjoyed this Empire of Dawn arc. Confirms that Reina is the daughter afterall... I assume Moegi is the daughter of Kojou too.

Mogwai is some sort of enemy too. My goodness.

It was a fun ride, really love the music specially when battling, and the animation is really consistent with the character art.

9/10 for me, kinda got annoyed with the "This is our fight" line, would have been fine if it wasn't said so much.

Would welcome a Season 2!

I enjoyed this show from start to finish. I loved Kojou's harem. One of the better harems I've seen.

Empire of the Dawn (Empire of Akatsuki). Awesome.

I definitely want a Season 2 of this in the future. I'd give this show an 8.5/10.

Considering the "this is our fight" catchphrase only appears like every 3 episodes or so, i shudder to think how you complainers handle other shows that have them every single episode.

Overall, the series was great for me when Sayaka had a prominent role in the story, and average when she didn't. If Kojou has daughters with both Himeragi and Aisagi in the future, i can only assume (in my mind anyway) that he has a kid with her too.

I don't expect a second season, or at least not any time soon. It would be nice if there was though. This show was a decent watch for the last half year.

~~~ Empire of Akatsuki ~~~

Does Akatsuki ever say... "This is our fight."
I get the feeling the only time he'll ever say that is... actually nvm I can't even imagine him saying it.

Though I like the idea of ending the series his Himaragi's panties from episode 1

Woah... damn... that close-up on Reina's cleavage...
