What is up with these badly executed camera pans?

Hand-drawn animation needs to play to its strengths and complex movement isn't one of them.

Dope, i like the slight characterization of the antagonists. Super sick of 1 dimensional black and white villains. Oh also more and more this show feels like a video game in terms of pacing, story and action. Like something Suda51 would make.

Pretty good episode once more.

I'm glad that Touko was saved, but our Taiga-like loli is one fiercely determined enemies who wants to take out Seigi completely.

The animation of the fights is getting better and the camera angles continue to be unique and effective. Hopefully J.C. can maintain this form and improve it further as well. =)

Lovely shots of Izzy's tight rear end while wearing her spats. Same goes to her friend, Lisa, and her lovely chest! Shame that her head isn't as useful in the cafe though, thinking that you can have as many 'cake' refills as you can with coffee! XD

I thought the tattoo of Touko is an aftermath of being controlled by Il, but I guess she possess her own tattoo too.

Really loving this series, can't wait to see more fights.

I feel that there's a bit too much fan-service. I like it, but I also hate it... I mean, the plot... no, not that plot, the actual plot.

Please, get a little more serious :O I hope that more characters die ^_^

They are very stilty with poor framerate. They are also excessive to the point of ridiculousness almost.

Do we really need a camera pan when a character is pointing at a paper file?

Don't even get me started on the "woosh" sound effects every time the camera moves...

I mean if you like badly executed cinematographic processes simply because they are novel to you then fine.

The fights in this anime are outstanding, the creators are definitely creative about that, although the fight in the first ep was the best one.

Also, alley cat.

loads of action, cute girls, massive oppai, and tonnes of fan service, pretty much what the majority of the anime community looks for in an anime.

It's a solid 7/10 so far lets see if they can keep this tattoo thing interesting.

Do you actually think they are good, have you seen any other kind of moving picture before?

Watch Attack on titan and pay attention to the action scenes.

Nice actions, Seigi tried to avenge Touko using his power. I think Touko is annoying so far, but the other girls are great.
Fanservice is very good too.

Izzy was pretty good this episode.

Bluesy is sexy.. uh-hmm cute alright. xD
Touka is definitely that type of girl.. sigh. Don't go too far okay.
Oh a new girl.. then turns out to be the next target. Please don't die so soon.
Yeah that's Taiga there definitely. Just look at her with that big ass sword.
Yuri going strong so far in this anime LOL.

I found it to be a fine episode. Though I felt Touko getting a Tattoo was very random. I'm like," Where did that come from?" Also the art direction is heavily leans towards the female characters of this show. The male designs are very bland.

I gotta say though Seigi is making headway as being an interesting main character. No asspulls. No cheap wins because he is MC. He is working hard and watching him fall and get back up has been a treat.

In my opinion, the fight scenes and the animation are the only good things about this anime. I mean I understand that they have to cater to the horny male demographic, but those ecchi jokes are just....sigh, forget it.
With the potential of the story, and the budget they got, this could've been so much more.

Dang those camera angles at the beginning were pretty wild, and so was the very sudden lewd. And god dang the fight scenes are freaking amazing in this anime, the animation, the visuals, angled camera and everything are all on point here, if only it weren't so lewd, I'd show this to other people.

That cosplay moment was short and unnecessary I could never understand the point in even trying to animate it. It was a complete waste of ten seconds.

So far the only thing I really like in this show is how they brought the childhood friend character into the loop and didn't keep her oblivious as so many other shows do.

I'm on the fence about this show... I like it, but also... obnoxious fan-service and justice spouting. but cool camera work and fight scenes...

Well the introduction of Iltutmish meeting Aryabhata was a bit odd, that random kiss & little butt rub wasn't what I was expecting. The abandoned cat made me tear up a bit though, awe that poor thing. Kind of glad at the end Iltumish took the thing in but I'm kinda afraid she'll actually kill it on screen..

That fanservice scene was nice though, a bit of cute to drive off the plot for a short minute. I like how they dragged Touko into the whole scenario though, I don't like it when they keep the childhood friend completely oblivious to the MC's situation.

Not a fan with the direction this series is taking here, I don't like that Touko is joining in this whole thing, it seems like she's gonna be the leash of Seigi and she's definitely gonna be a hindrance to the badass, pure adrenaline rush action scene that I wanted. Imagine if Touka was at the scene when Seigi was fighting that muscle dude in the first episode, how annoying that would be, that she's always in the way.. yeah..

Hoping for the best but not too optimistic now. THe voice acting bar Tom is pretty fucking horrendous among the main cast.

Omg cute capybara, considering how popular they are in the east, they rarely appear in anime. Action is fairly good. They went overboard with crazy camera moves, but it's always nice to experiment with new styles of framing & tracking, & the effort is apparent.
Interesting to show "daily life" of villains perspective. A bit justice ideals clashing.
They not explaining much. Why Touko got a Jumon, did umbrella girl give her one? Brain in a box & sword teasers.

Dat kiss. Dat booty grab. HLA?
Touko oppai jiggle. If you had oppai as magnificent as Touko's, you'd feel right at hime in her body.
Damn. Dat shoulder.
When you're about to die and your enemy keeps saying your name, but they're not really saying your name because they're talking about another word that happens to be your name.
Seigi is Touko's hero. Oh, snap! Seigi saw that bra and pantsu. Seigi is her prince.
lol at Touko's forehead.
Seigi face in that oppai.
Schrodinger's cat? LMAO
Of course he was use the void in the house.
Holy shit! Guts just came out.
Dat tattoo on her forehead.
LMAO at the cat.
Cat just dropped the other cat in front of them.
Her name is Lisa.
SUGOI! Lisa oppai.
Dat half booty.
Dat capybara. Capybara, say you! Capybara, oh yeah!
LMAO at dude asking how old she is.
Lisa is their next target? No!

Lisa so good in this episode.
