----------------------------------------
Looks like they are going for the big climatic battle.

Hell, even Rito/Bunny-sensei realizes the shit that happening...and that means something I suppose. Can't believe Julie's powers are running wild again after that.

Pretty predictable ending though. Figured they would use the OP song theme during the final fight. Meh. Lol Miyabi apologizes. No she shit is sorry.

Common K, just stab Tooru a few more times. Tooru probably can probably just get up like it was nothing anyways.

What did I exactly watch lol. Absolute shit propably. It could be much more finer if they focused on harem aspect and developed all girls not just Julie... Where were mine Tomoe fanservice scenes, where were Miybabi's like sleeping on his lap etc. fuck you writers, not only you changed most important things from LN, but you also didin't give a damn about the rest of the cast.

Horrible 2/10

Oh yea that Tsukimi was very badass.

but what... no fan service on this episode? ok ..

It was actually pretty boring on the first - mid of the episode.
But I was surprisingly amazed when Tor and Julie were protect each others, it was probably just because of the backsound lol.

The plot was nicely done. Well overall is 7/10

My opinion may have a nullification attempt, but no matter.

Nice ending to an Awesome anime. Sad that I won't be able to hear Julie say 'Ja' or 'Nej' anymore. Hopefully there will be a second season though.

I'm still curious as to the boy who killed Tor's friend though. So I suppose I'll either have to wait patiently, or get into reading mode.

I quite liked Bunny-Sensei's Entrance. And despite what she said, at least she still cares enough about the school to use those shield chains.

10/10

Ahh, no worries. I gave it a low rating because most of the fights, with the exception of the first few, had an intelligence rating somewhere between: How is that idiot still beating Tor and How is Tor still alive?!

The fight had many flaws and TEH DUO asspull. The only good things about this episode were Bunny-sensei and the build up to what i thought...a love confession or even a kiss. But NOT EVEN THAT. Imma give this anime a 6/10 since i always find at least something in most anime that keeps me entertained. But at this point Shinmai Maou No Testament and Seiken Tsukai No World Break are better.

Looks like they saved the budget for this finale episode. The art and animation looked really great (With the exception of one slight derp that bothered me but the CGI that they used at times for K's flight scenes didn't look that great imo)

The final battle was pretty freaking awesome, Kevin was actually pretty menacing for most of it with his overwhelming fire power and increased skills. Bunny-sensei also put in some work and she did not fail to impress one bit....It made me smile to see the students cheer her on and that badass yet clichéd thumbs up that she gave them xD

The highlight of the episode and the series in general is just seeing how strong the bond is between Toru and Julie and seeing then work together was really nice to see. It also played on the one aspect that I loved about this series and that is that it's all team effort here and without your partner you'll never be able to truly succeed. I don't see how anyone can call it an asspull since this was a major/main plot point since the beginning =/

Alas Berserk Julie vs K round 2 was EPIC AS FUCK and I LOVE when she acts like that lol. Kevin got rekt hard too. The reveal of her power came a little too late for my liking but I still found it to be a little ineresting. Lilith at the end of the episode made me smile and glad to see that all is forgiven with Miyabi :)

Overall the show wasn't half bad but it still had issues (My main ones being the animation and the fact that I recently found out that a lot of material was skipped or changed). I also didn't like the consistency of the fights for the most part. (Like one episode it'd be awesome and the next it'd be kinda meh)

7/10 for me - Personally this was the second best action/ecchi this season after Testament for me....I'm gonna miss Best Girl Lilith, Yandere Miyabi and Kawaii Julie so much TwT I guess I'll read the LN now since I doubt that this will get a S2

Tor got stabbed, losing tons of blood, and suddenly few minutes later he is back in perfect condition?!? Ending was very predictable and cliché. Overall it was an enjoyable show, however there is just no way that I can rate this higher than a 6/10.

Damn it, I really done it. I marathon (1-12 EP) it. But I didn't get what I'm looking for.(Something more bad ass fights? and Not with that lame shield)
So I'll give this Anime a 7 over all. (Or maybe 8 if I feel like it, I'm being generous now, And please don't make a sequel!)

How are (what probably is) a small portion of the suggested power of an Absolute Duo,
in other words the purpose of the entire school, an asspull?

The implied reason the headmaster and the rest are seeking Absolute Duo is
because of power. What other reason could it be when that the professor was
allowed to do that kind of "game" without the headmaster protesting?

I really have mixed feelings about this anime, I mean the final episode was good I really liked the battle episode but in overall this anime is just meh compared to the other harem shows this season.

And it really annoys me that I dont know who the duck keeps apearing in Tor's flashbacks. Also felt like they stopped with the flashbacks halfway throughout the show.

6/10 I wouldn't mind watching a second season but I doubt it'll ever happen.

Well, a bad ending to a bad anime.
Even as an advertising for the LN, I guess it did a poor job, since the plot went for the girls chests instead. Well, at least I'm done with this.

The last episode was ok, wish tooru actually died it make everything more interesting and add the feels but that didn't happen (of course).

So I'll give it a 5/10 only the first few episodes were good.

People watching this like they are expecting something deep, or the best story ever. You know from the start this is going to be a harem themed anime, yet people still watch it and call it trash. Here's a thing, if you don't like an anime

Because some harems, like Bakemonogatari, are actually good. Absolute Duo had potential. I don't mind fan service, but I need at least a decent story to go with it.

How many time does K need to get his ass kicked before he stops coming back. And i swear he gets more arrogant each time, like his last ass whoopin never happened.

None of the characters in the show appealed to me except Lilith, and the story was drab. I gave this show 6/10 and only because of Lilith naked at the beginning of ep 8.

I agree. If the anime has a harem/ecchi genre then I just watch it for the fun of it, prepare myself for the typical harem cliches, and see if I like the anime or not.

Absolute duo has been pretty average for the entire anime. There wasn't really anything unique to it. But that isn't always a bad thing. 3/5

As for the episode, the fight was good, I like how it turned out, regardless of how predictable it was. I'm not going to really talk about how Tor miraculously stood up to a would like that, or the fact he just stopped bleeding...

I would have liked to see them going into depth with some things like that guy from Tor's path, and maybe develop some of the characters more, but that would only be if they end of doing a season 2.

Absolute duo had potential, and I wished they utilized that, but what's done is done.
