Farabeuf said: Christ, people love to exaggerate on MAL. Cannot deal with a bit of exposition or what? Yeah, it's not stellar storytelling and could have been handled better, but it's also got a bit more ambitious world building going on than your standard series. And while Nagisa is a total douche, there's clearly more to him than meets the eye. QFT. People bitch all the time about series (including myself) not packing enough punch in the first couple of episodes. Mind you, D.Grayman's first few episodes were also pretty generic and boring but the rest was pretty fucking epic especially when Allen Walker started to evolve. I'm going to be more patient than most of these people. I'm going to watch it until the end. I also bitched about Shokugeki no Souma before. I fucking hated the fanservice and thought it was only for virgin fatasses who loved to fap to big-bosomed chicks and food. I enjoy it now but highly disagree with anyone who thinks its the best Anime of the year, clearly those noobs haven't seen quality series to extol it to that degree. I'm sticking with this one especially since Kiryu Nagisa looks like a badass version of Kyosuke from OREIMO. |
| 臭い- |
| I watched it again and it's still boring. Exposition it is, but you don't need to make it a boring episode. Countless other series make fun build-up episodes and they would have had more options than cramming all the information into meandering sleepy PV scenes. I'll still watch the show because Mizuki is cute but this episode wasn't for me and that's for sure. |
| This series has potential; I appreciate the use of exposition during the majority of this episode, although it was slightly overwhelming. I as well appreciate the explaining of how all the gadgets work, since series rarely tend to do that. What I really want to see from the next several episodes is the cast's backgrounds. Still an improvement from the first episode, however. |
| This series is better than I expected. I like the technobabble and the concept of the company - innovation and freedom. Like... it's an actual school/company that allows the students to do what they want? I like that! It's certainly not flashy, but that's what I like about it. No fanservice yet either, though the characters are kind of moe-esque. They spent a whole episode (or two) building up the background of A-TEC and why we should care that they're in trouble of being disbanded. I like the passion Sera had during the PR and the fact that he suddenly remembered his goal. Definitely a surprise for me and I hope it continues to improve. |
| Kind of boring indeed. Dropped. |
| Keep moving forward |
| It is somewhat slow but Im really enjoying it. I see the potential as well. |
 |
| Been wondering if they're gonna put the explanations about the technology and the universe in this episode... and yep, they did. Good job. And I believe more would come in the upcoming episodes. I'm still enjoying this series. Nagisa's character is annoying but interesting at the same times. Have a feeling that the upcoming episodes would flesh all the characters in the A-TEC one by one (at least, judging from the title of the next episode). Could be a good move, let's see. |
bobzanny said: This. Errm...any scene with Nagisa I thought was good the rest was boring. Probably going to be an average series but I'll see another episode to see where it goes. I'll give it til episode 5, max. |

| Whoa he got inspired by his own speech |
| Feels like I'm watching some Corporate-theme'd Japanese Drama. They've set up a pretty interesting show, it's just that this episode was probably where you'd end it if it was an hour long J-Drama, and it would've been the perfect setup for the rest of the show. Shows like this are few and far between, will keep watching to see how it develops. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| The show gets better! So excited to watch the battle between Sera and Kiriyu! |
| I liked this episode more than the first, if only because of the discussion between Nagisa and his brother(?). Corporate backstabbery is fun to watch. But yeah, the show seems to have an identity crisis. Is it another lighthearted slice of life or something aiming for a dramatic arc? I'm kinda getting a Mouretsu Pirates feel from this and I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing XD |
| Very boring so far.. Its not grabbing my attention.. With the Ed it seems we might get some yuri? Or some kind of romance... |
[center] *>.>[Spoiler][/spoiler]<.<* [center] |
| this is not my cup of tea.. I don't want to hurt myself more, so dropped. |
| Alright episode. Kiryuu's brother came across as a total asswipe. OP and ED are nice. Also that facial expression of Kaito when he's watching the show, lmao. |
  |
| I'm starting to like this anime. The teacher is passionate and determined. The things will surely speed up next time. |
| Jeez, talk about info dumping. Nagisa and Iris, yeah, I ship that. |
 |
| Wow, just wow. How utterly lazy can you get, Layduce/Aniplex? Easily the worst show I've seen this year. Exposition is fine, but being so goddamn blatant about it? I don't know who is in charge of the story, but I hope for literature's sake that he never gets a job in the story department ever again. |
 |
| Ok. This episode was better than the first. And the ed song tho, ClariS omggg |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| Pretty dryly executed but I dig the general trajectory of the show. Also looking at the ratings...come on guys the show doesn't deserve this. |
 |
| Arrogant Kiryuu acting all high and mighty just because if his accomplishments, good thing Sera Kaito is giving it all his best to defend his class! ClaRen i mean ClariS is such a great thing when I heard the ED! 4/5. |
 |
| well, it wasn't very entertaining. Will watch the third episode to see if I should just drop it. EDIT: oh, and I can't stand Sera Kaito's voice. |

Aversa said: Kiryuu Nagisa doesn't seem to realise that some companies are always looking for talented people to join there company. The moment he said against Iris she should be will be having a life all i was thinking was that he doesn't know shit about the employment industry. Someone as skilled as Iris will probably approached by other companies all the time and the rest of the class won't have a hard time finding another job either Considering his position, I'm sure, he knows what he is talking about. Maybe there is a surplus of ( talented ) pilots, so that being talented is not enough. |

| Interesting way to present the background... through a PR video... Still a bit too slow for my taste. I think I'm gonna pass on this one. |
  |
| I'm not to sure of this one to be honest. Some parts were just really boring although it overall shouldn't be too bad. It just feels plain as fuck. Hopefully it'll improve soon enough. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| What's with everyone wanting instant gratification for every second of a show. Sure the first ep was a sudden burst of events just to set up the characters that will be involved in the story, and this ep wasn't exciting (it was a bit boring) because it took time to set up a plot, introducing antagonist, some brief character personality, and a motive, but this is usually were the story starts now that the foundation is set. It's not spectacular nor is it bad, it's ok so far. |
Honoka is my Hero! Click Me! |
| Very interesting episode, despite having a plot almost obvious in its main hub. While keeping in mind that, I was pleasantly surprised by the narrative, as had happened with the first episode. Good presentation of the characters, which while not standing out for physical appearance, thanks to their motivations and the goals, gave that something extra that makes them recognizable to the public. Discrete designs and animations, the sets are sufficient; pleasant opening, the catchy ending sung by ClariS. |
 |
| AYE, people butthurt over exposition XD Good ep. Sera the man. |
 |
| Sera-sensei is a really cool guy I like him! The episode was ok but the whole promotional video was not that interesting.. I am excited to see how they will try to "fight" Nagisa o: Although I don't really think that Nagisa wants to be the bad guy I don't know he seems kinda misunderstood. |
| Average episode, can't seem to find the interest to watch this anime to be honest. |
 |
| Her name is Makoto. Dat face. TrySail and ClariS with nice songs again. |

| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| This show is incredibly boring and I can't stand Nagisa. Dropped. |
| Jeez, tough crowd. I really like this show so far, interesting set up and liekable characters and a million times better than most of the crap people seem to like. At least Nagisa tells it like it is, if this was a real corporation he'd be giving speeches like Sera Kaito while laying hundreds of engineers off and making turbines out of brittle plastic to save five bucks a car. The promotional video was gold, they could have lifted it almost word for word from any British apprenticeship scheme! The japanese sure love their info-dump exposition don't they. I don't think I've ever seen a sci fi anime without one. |
