It was a good episode.

Lux's tone is quite girly!

Well I like it so far. It has the harem vibe so I'll keep watching and so far Lisha has won me over. She has a tsundere personality but however she shows more her soft side instead of showing more of her hostile side. Lol some people are dropping this because it's generic, cliche, unoriginal, and a harem? Come on, trying to create something "original" is tough these days. No matter what the creators are going to make, the concepts of their ideas will always have similar elements and themes that has been done before, they just need to tweak it to make their story different. Anyway decent first episode, I hope the main male character have some decent character development to make him more likable.

This is generic as fuck lol. It's trash but it's the good kind of trash that you just sit back and enjoy without taking it too seriously.

On an unrelated note, why do anime like this even bother with harems if the eventual winner is already sign posted from the OP alone? Do the creators just get off from crushing the dreams of fictional girls?

I liked this ep. Really cool fight they had going on. Did that chick finger herself?!


I thought so too at first, but she might have been placing her finger on the Crest tattoo she has there instead.

Art is good and characters look great.
Plot is minimal.
Overall, very enjoyable.
Often stories that have too deep a plot, you will get drowsy while watching.
This should definately be rated higher than infinite stratos, so keep that in mind when you rate.

All I see here is a bunch of hypocrites. Its f*cking generic , its generic af blah blah , its cliche blah blah .. and the most annoying thing I continue reading is "I knew this shit was going to be generic/cliche but I watched it and I'm gonna continue watching it." Well dumb people if you knew what it was going to be about why did you watch it and continue to watch it ? Yeah I know its not something original but for me harem anime with a strong MC every anime season is something refreshing over other dark serious anime where MC's are dying and I have to feel depressed about it

Mainly watching this to see if the series is worth a read with the LNs. So far, not interested but just gotta give it time.

I loved this tbh. Been looking forward to it for a while. I'm kinda confused on why it wasn't put down as a Mecha anime when Infinite Stratos was...It's pretty much the same concept right? Is there anyway to suggest a change in this? It's actually quite annoying.

Pretty standard harem stuff, which is probably why I enjoyed it so much! Although I have to say, if Lux Arcadia doesn't pull off some epic Kirito-style Dual Wielding at some point in this series, I'll be sorely disappointed. lol.

I'm confused. Haven't we seen this already on the last season? I'm not usually bothered by cliches but, goddamnit, it's the exact same first-episode development.

Well, i'll still give it a shot since the "former prince x current princess" setting is slightly interesting.

Yeah yeah i know.... "dropped" , "generic"... blah blah blah

Now that you people submit your "generic" response PLEASE, don't back to comment on the rest of show.

About the episode, reminds me IS and of course like any LN with harem the similar start, despise of that, i liked the animations and the girls are cute, apparently the main history will not take a while to progress so lets see next week...

Do the majority of people not realise it would be entertaining for viewers that are new to the medium, aswith more experience you will notice all the cliches. It's to be expected. I like the divine drag-whatever they called it during the battles. Lux and Lieschaart have interesting backgrounds but once again the tsundere attitude needs to go. It has a small chance of succeeding...

And here we have a cocky/bossy bitch as the main girl.
I don't know why most main girl now a day is such a bitch lol.
Everyone should now know who is the Black Hero lol so obvious.
I only read the manga and was planning on reading the light novel as well, but no update anymore so yea.
This first episode is not bad...still hate that Lisesharte lol.

I can get over it being generic and cliche af but why oh why do character's have to lack common sense and be retarded. She got all embarrassed he saw her in the nude and is supposed to be a lovely respectable princess and yet she pulls down her clothes to show him a mark she wishes he never saw in the first place. The girl is in a strangers room, revealing her goddamn panties!

And what kind of idiot falls into a girl's bath house by accident and then proceeds to compliment her nude body as if that wouldn't be a red flag and make people think he's a pervert. Wtf was he living under a rock all his life?

Hate dumbass, contradictory characters.

First episode was as expected, Lux rapidly being seen as a perverted by all the girls and then saving them in the fight against Abyss, the animation is not surprising, but quite liked the soundtrack, will be a little hard to get used to the female voice of Lux, as well as their appearance, but hopefully a good development in this adaptation ..

One of the prettier anime this season with great character designs.

Lux's voice does sound kinda girly, but I guess he is, what, 15?

Now that we got the obligatory intro out of the way, lets see what the next episode has in store.

I uhhh...don't know quite what to say. Spend 5 minutes and you will find a dozen shows that fit this exact mold. There are two things that makes or breaks these kinds of shows, how they go about executing the plot we already pretty much know and the likability of the cast to make episodes entertaining since the "plot" will surely be a disappointment. This one isn't looking good.

There are 2 or 3 of this exact same show every single season. So much practice you'd think would end up with a good show but that isn't what we get. They instead just make the same mistakes over and over and we get the same half-assed show over and over.

Sometimes they're a little better, and sometimes they're a little worse. The worse ones tend to be at an all-girls school, have a tsundere as the main romance and a lone male protagonist who is ridiculously talented but persecuted for some completely nonsense reason. Exactly like this one. To top it off they have a chick doing his voice because seemingly the Japanese can't tell an adult woman making a goofy voice from a teenage boy. It is so half-assed it's like a high-school project where the only people you can get to do voices for you is your sister and mother.

I thought it was Makoto's (Idolmaster) VA doing Lux at first.

Well, it didn't really bore me much, and I haven't seen enough generic shows to make me drop this so I might be able to finish the series lol

If you want my opinion.. Well, I don't give a fuck if this anime is generic or not. I will judge it by the animation, story, characters, fluidity of the story, dialogues, pacing of the story and overall enjoyment. Most of you will be like,(Nerdy Voice) "Well, this is cliche" "Another Harem x School Theme", while it may be common, its the little things that we tend to be fond of. Anyways, good start (Expecting Asterisk to surpass this series next season)

Dunno about you guys but I just want to see best girl's story animated. I mean unless you're a big fan of the harem setup...yeah it doesn't really offer much besides maybe a 30 minute timesink. I mean there's the random gem here and there, but that's really the rare exception and hardly the norm.

Anyway this looks like a rush job so we can get to best girl even faster! Yay best girl!
