I don't see how Kirin fighting in some tourny would help clear her fathers name. To me it sounds like her uncle got him put away dispite the self defense.

I hope that he doesn't because Rank #1 just because he beat the #1 rank person. If someone is the complet counter of the Rank 1 and only them then they would lose to the next person in line so why would they be Rank 1 in the first place.

Also, how do those 2 collect data and video without ANYONE noticing?

Well all things considered, can't have a plot without idiots for leads I guess.

PS. Kirin's voice is annoying. I don't understand how that type of voice is suppose to be cute. Eastern people confuse me sometimes.

You missed the obvious "Festa winners can get 1 of their wish granted as long as it is within the power and capability of IEF who hold most of the power and authority" already stated several times. They won't approve blowing up a country but they can grant pardon for some prisoners unless they are way too dangerous.

That's how the rule works. Strategy and tactics are basic in battles in Asterisk and more important than power levels. Julis always has several moves prepared so her opponents can't get complete information on her. Btw it wasn't stated but Rank 1 can not refuse any challenge unlike other Page Ones. So unless one is really strong he/she cannot stay as Rank 1 forever.

Everyone has their own information network especially considering the attack was a plan by one of the other factions of Allekant under their provocation. Duel information and videos are open for everyone to see.

Paying attention would help you not get embarrassed by making baseless statements.

People are different......not everyone thinks the same way.

Personally i don't like Kirin that much. She sounds like a chipmunk and she's too forced of a character to be that moe cute loli thing.

Can we get more Claudia please.

Man I have a serious boner for spear combat. So seeing Ayato pull one out and go to town with it was pretty damn cool.
The fight against the water monster was pretty lame though.

Damn Kirin. That fucking body. I am so blessed that I know (and am sleeping with) someone with a body like that, AND is well past legal age. It's the little victories, you know?

I want to see more of Saya in action too by the way!

Japan is weird, they went out of their way to sexualize a 13 year old in this episode. Pretty fucked up.

Claudia gives me goosebumps when she shows her dark side~


Surprised (but happy) that Kirin was able to stand up for herself so soon after meeting Ayato.

Also love how many different techniques Ayato can use in a fight! Switched from 1h to spear to short swords, then bare-handed grapple skills! Color me impressed, nice to see a MC that can fight with more than just a sword.

On one hand you have a busty Claudia, and then there's Kirin who is small but has quite a respectable body, them V lines on Kirin look amazing.

Ayato vs Kirin was pretty enjoyable. Give him props, to use daggers of some sort to fight Kirin who is using a sword.
Her backstory was very interesting. That after credits scene where Sasamiya asks Kirin if she wants to team up. Poor Lester getting lol

So is anything going to even happen to Allekant because Ayato even mentioned them when they were attacked, but now it's like he forgot, and that's a pretty big deal to be attacked by another school and nearly killed/drowned...

Dat Kirin oppai.
Dat Kirin bra and pantsu.
You're mistaken, Kirin. Ayato doesn't love Julis. He loves Claudia, but he wouldn't mind adding you to the harem.
Stare into his eyes, Kirin.
Dat Kirin oppai.
Dat slap.
She chose to fight Ayato.
Dat grapple.
Claudia oppai.
Dat post credits! Dat Kirin oppai. Dat body.
Dat preview! Claudia so perfect.

Claudia proves once again that she is best girl.
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).

great episode.
i think the battle was pretty good. straight to the boobs though :D
and she got stronger to fight her uncle back , that was good to see.
Woah, try showing someone this image and see if they take it out of context.


That pic is too good! Wouldnt matter if that had happened, Kirin was definitly best girl material this episode, welcomed addition to the harem.

That was nice alone time with Kirin! Damn, for a 13y/o she looks like she's late teens with that body.

Nice fight! He's technically the strongest in the academy at this point.

Those team ups looks very powerful.

Esse episódio conseguiu ser bastante satisfatório, e eu estava descrente que esse anime conseguiria. Esse episódio dela foi muito bom. Ela conversando com o Ayato foi mó legal enquanto eles ficavam no subterrâneo.
A luta deles dois foi muito boa também. Ele inventando técnicas para não revelar sua força total foi maneiro de se ver.
E as duas se aliando no final... E eu já estava esperando que isso fosse mesmo acontecer.
