Gakusen Toshi Asterisk 2nd Season Episode 11 Discussion

damn bruh new girl is so badass

Man , with 1 ep to go would there be anymore time for another one of those festa thingy?

make that season 3 a reality please.

Love the fight with Ophelia, that was nicely animated.

Thank you so much for your time, and for your great answers ;)
Now i certainly know more about what is happening.

ohohohoh what a surprise. I was expecting the Kirin/Saya duo to come save them, but nice to see Claudia and a quick tease of her powers. New girl really piqued my interest. She reminds me of Isla from Plastic Memories in a way lol.

Welp, too bad we're not gonna see the Gryps Festa this season. Hopefully there's a season 3. Also, if only the manga wasn't dropped :C

Tbh I think it is getting a bit boring without the festa and more talking less fighting. Still that old guy and the brother were nice.

I see.... This season is going to end in cliffhanger and suggesting us to buy their Novels, Since it's pretty uncommon for Anime (especially for School Battle Harem.. I mean Harem) to have more than 2 seasons unless they make a TONS of cash.

"Once does not simply to watch the Asterisk War without being ended with cliffhanger.)"

Also Julis doesn't deserve Ayato, Tsunderes doesn't deserve any boyfriend. Ayato needs to keep his harem going..

I just want to Julis and Ayato kiss each other

Real late to the party but so what...

Pretty cool episode. We finally get to know more about Julis and her past concerning her connection to the orphanage. Looks like the Integrated Enterprise Foundation is pretty much TAW's version of the Mafia. With only one episode left there's going to be a lot left desired. So count me in for a third season.

You know, when I really started watching this series it suddenly reminded me of something. In the beginning I couldn't figure out what it was but now I do.

The Asterisk War is a lot like Final Fantasy VII. No, seriously. It is. I mean, think about it:

1. A meteor crashed into Earth and changed the world, kind of like how Jenova came to the planet and tried to take it over.
   
2. Invertia being discovered and then it's element of Mana being injected into people that would give them magical powers, very similar to Mako being injected into SOLDIERs after the remains of Jenova were discovered.
   
3. How the power of Mana through Invertia made a tremendous impact in the world for better or for worse, much like Mako being a major impact on the planet in FFVII.
   
4. While it's too early to tell the Integrated Enterprise Foundation may be this anime's equivalent to FFVII's Shinra Company.
   
5. And lastly, Ophelia might be the Sephiroth of this show seeing how OP she is and that she has the power to literally "choke" the planet to death.
   

"What I want, Julis, is to sail the cosmos with this planet as my vessel."
"I thought of a wonderful present for you, Ayato. Shall I give you despair?"

Heh, heh, sorry. I couldn't resist. But yeah, mind boggling isn't it? Makes you wonder what The Asterisk War might have been like if it was like Final Fantasy VII.

I knew Jolbert will totally pull that off, that Julis should marry Ayato.

And Ophelia is too OP, just what should be expected of No.1 in Asterisk. Everything we saw in the Phoenix Festa feels nothing noww, since the heavyweights are not even there. >.<

I dont keep up with the source material for this anime so I've been fully prepared for some sort of "get-it-over-with" finisher but after seeing this new chick and learning of the 5-man Festa, there better be a 3rd season! I've also always been a claudia fan but Ayato x Julis works for me, there will be a 3rd season right?

ok the episode was intense.. nice way to warm up the arc nicely

Well, there is one interesting character here. That Ophelia girl has a weird but very strong power that even Ayato can't match with, and she's from Rewolf. First time to see Claudia's Ogre Lux (if I remember correctly, I never seen it season 1) and I am interested of its power coz as I remember in season 1, Julis mentioned to Ayato that Claudia's Ogre Lux has to do with seeing the future movements.

Only 1 episode left and I would like to have a decent ending for this season. Looking forward to see how they will pull it off.

Meanwhile, I just laughed at the last scene where Ayato and Julis fainted, and Claudia only shouted Ayato's name. I find that part awkwardly funny. Julis got SEEN ZONED. :v

So... To those who have read the LN, do Ayato and Julis get together eventually or it stays harem all the way?

There were actually two scenes where Claudia used her Ogre Lux in season 1. First to knock Silas out at the end of first arc. The second was when they caused her to attack Ayato who came to her room to ask her abut Gravi-Sheath.
It's still ongoing & there's still no conclusion to the romance.

Oh I remember now. Thank you for that info. :)

And with 1 episode left, everything will be left open.

If all goes well we should be getting our s3 lol. This season has kinda turned me into a believer somewhat. xD

WUT?!?!?!?! that girl, orphelia is her childhoos friends ?
is she really julis's childhood friends ?!?!?! i mean, is she really ?!?!?!
isn't she a different person ?!?! i mean, she looks freaking different from what i have seen in julis's past. moreover, WTF with her power. is that even fair ?! she wasn't even using sword LOL. i can even call that a mosnter goddammit.

not only that the one which suprised me, wtf happened to the ending visual ?!?!? ayato's sister turned into Orphelia and the ending of the visual turn out that they were about to walk into the stage.

seriously, there are many interesting things happened in this anime lately from episode 10. moreover what just happened in this episode. now i wonder what happen in the final episode. i need to watch it ASAP. i think this anime just get more and more interesting to watch.

and i want more because of what just happened in this episode. i mean, season 3. now i want season 3.

That was a really cool change up in art.

And I love "winter" episodes. Anime always makes it look so pretty!

wew! someone stronger than Ayato (far more than Julis) in terms of one-on-one? maybe that's the experiment girl of Eberwein is keeping as trump card...
4/5.

Ayato and Julis collapses
Claudia : "Ayato Ayato Ayato!"
Julis : "bitch is u blind"

New girl in episode 11, talk of joining the next tournament.. clearly there'll be season 3 in the works?

Oh great, another one of Dirk's dogs.

She really pissed me off, with her babbling about destiny, beings without free will shouldn't judge others.

How Claudia disposed of SOB's doggies was awesome.

Poison-hands girl was pretty cool... but it's kind of late to be introducing her.

Claudia.
Of course Ayato would decline marrying Julis. He doesn't like her like that and he loves Claudia.
Orphelia.
Dat fire.
Dem hands.
Orphelia rekt Julis.
Dem hands. Dat smell.
Ayato got saved, but now he has to fight again. lol
Claudia saved her future husbando! The true main heroine is here!
It pained my heart hearing Claudia call her future husbando's name like that. No waifu deserves to go through that.

Dat preview! I'm sad as well Claudia. Don't worry, Claudia. You're already the one true heroine. You will be left standing by default.

Claudia proving once again that she is best girl.

Really dumb how ayato looked so pathetic and weak this episode. Literally the worst episode in the series.

So that old guy once again summons beasts and runs after someone would actually be capable of fighting him. What an annoying coward.

Would someone mind telling me how ayato knew orphelia? At least with the way he said "what? That's orphelia? No way!" It sounds like he knows her. But I don't remember them ever meeting.
