| I'm finding this a bit too clichéd. I like some responses e.g. my bed holds me hostage :) But for the most part, it feels like it's been done before but a lot better. |

| Saya is love <3 The way she deadpans through life is totally adorable. To be honest, nothing really happened this episode apart from her introduction, and they skipped that one line explaining that Ayato is extremely poor with directions (he went to buy drinks at a vending machine that was way further than the nearest one). I'm glad they're not rushing through things though, because the way I see it, we should be going for 3 or 4 episodes per LN volume, which is fine by me. More Saya antics incoming. *Ka-Boom* |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| If only A-1 Pictures would put as much time into the rest of the anime as they do their OP and ED's. They always have such good opening and endings. The actual anime not so much lol. |

| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| Lol this is another anime with a strong swordsman who has to partner up with a princess/royalty, with pink hair, and controls fire. |
 |
| A childhood friend |
| Slower episode, but not bad. I'm not expecting to much from this series, but I'm hoping for some solid entertainment. |
My Queens  |
| Normally i wouldn't watch an anime like this but Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry makes this anime look good. Cavalry is so bad. This one has good animastion and music at least. Also there is no incest! |
  |
| Julis for me is an okay character. she's strong willed. I really like Saya. gotta like her personality. |
Aah just when I'm about to drop this anime after the 2nd episode, the appearance of Saya saved this anime! Gotta like her cute design and her quirky personality. She might be the best girl! Will continue watching just for her! Dat weapon of her though.. She's really not playing games.. Maybe Julis should just step back.. |
 |
| Aye, that blue haired loli <3 And the pres is way too horny, calling him over when she's showering :) |
 |
| Overpowered protagonist is kinda fun I guess. |
| Its becoming a bit too cliché but hey thats my own fault, could've seen it coming. Had to laugh at the bed keeps me hostage quote. Guess I'm gonna keep watching. |
 |
| Saya is adorable. Claudia is true to her word. Good batch of characters so far, so if they are any indication of what is to come, im looking forward to it. "Taming" of the sword was lame imo. I felt like for what seems like an important event, there should have been more time or production dedicated for it. |
| Its funny how Rakudai had a much better first episode than this, while this had a better 2nd episode. Guess these two shows will compete all the way. Saya is cute and I like her VA. 7/10 |
 |
| Wow, the ED song is effin' amazing. Wasn't expecting that. |
| Well, this second episode was much better than Calvary's. We know more of Ayato's backstory. We have a funny little blue haired rocket launcher wielding chick. And pretty decent animation. I'm actually liking this. ^~^ |
  |
| Oh that Claudia... |
 |
| Dem bouncing tiddes of Claudia... <3 |
 |
| Saya is awesome, I enjoyed the Ser Verestra compatibility test as well and it looks as if Ayato is a lot more powerful then what he is letting on. That ED song as well though, my God thats one of the best this season. |
| From what Saya said to Julis, Ayato is very strong, so strong that he would beat her completely. Woooow 97% compatibility is very high. It seems that that sword have a relation with his sister and when he will start using it he will probably understand or discover what happened to her or where she is now. This episode was pretty good :D |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Saya's cute and funny, too pettanko. Good episode, witnessing Saya fight was awesome. Cool scene when she told Hime-sama how weak Hime-sama is, I wanted to see them fight though. |
 |
| i never get tired of listening the OP! ill definitely wait for that full ver of OP. And also great ED by MaayaSakamoto. As for the episode sa usual the sword will go for Ayato cuz it senses her sister inside him. 4/5. |
 |
| Although this show does nothing great and it's typical as it can get for some reason i ain't having a bad time. The Saya girl though it's too typical for people to praise. She's that monotone unsentimental girl we saw a thousand times with no original twist what so ever. Btw as to all of you that claim that this too cliche just look at this pic and see how original it is.  The only anime that deals with midget girls. -Makkuro said: That big guy is also obviously going to turn into an antagonist.. He seems too weak to be turned into a serious antagonist. |

| Not too bad so far. The ED was very nice. So the Princess needs money. I actually like that idea, instead of honor or some crap, she just needs money for her kingdom. It's something that's realistic. That blonde though. Dear Lord she is fine. |
| Sleepy-girl is kinda cool. That ED is way too soft for this anime... I like it, but... |
  |
| That ED was something special. |

 |
| Wow the ED song is so damn perfect. |
| How do I signature? |
| Some interesting new characters and some other pretty lovely development. While quite expected it was still entertaining! Let's see what's next. The ED was quite nice as well :) |
 |
| ... Saya is soooo cute. A bit fast.. the orge lux choosing is a bit underwhelming. For no reason he's able to use the sword the muscle head can't use. If remembered correctly only 2 ppl used it before..? Might be wrong. The didn't explain anything but his one-chan possibly using it. I guess they find it not important.. oh well. The novel content is too heavy after all. |
| the blue hair girl personality is good . |
 |
| Saya is best girl already. Just saying. This show has the potential for some great combat, and OP and ED are really good. but we all know its gonna be ecchi trash. |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| Time for some good old seductionnnn :33 btw the ED is nice |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Saya best girl. That weapon she has is amazing. Claudina too is a fun character. She's all over Ayato, Saya with that "shoo" line xD |
 |
| Jesus, in two days this man has three girls on his dick, and the most powerful and "mind of it's own" weapon ever. My guy was already op to begin with, but now!!?? |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Onee-chan oppai. Motorboat it, Ayato. Claudia is the most qualified. Assassins. You baka. You're not compatable. Stop. LAWD! Claudia in that shower. Dat oppai. Dat preview! Dat jiggling oppai. Claudia once again proving why she's best girl. Nice ED song. |
| 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). |

| Well better than the first episode at least and it looks like next will have some Claudia fanservice which is possibly the only thing that can save this from being bad. |
| Ayato finally got the Ser Veresta. |
| Love Saya! and it was good to see the wall that Julis built around herself begin to crack. Not sure what Claudia is up to, maybe she just wants to piss off Julis, regardless, nice start on the harem! 👩👩👧👦 |
| Claudia best girl, also banger ending song |
 |
| Waifu wars! And damn, Claudia is hot! Man, this is why I desire great power. It always attracts the ladies! hehe ED sounds cool! |
