| I knew the show was gonna focus on the lolis but I didnt think ginko would get shafted so badly throughout the entire show... |
 |
| Well, to me minus the two episodes he was a prick this was a fun ride. My only gripe was that it didn’t showed more of the Shogi matches & strategies more (like commentary to understand a little more about this game) but like I said this was a fun ride… |
 |
| What a piece of shit. And to think someone got paid for writing it. I put as much effort into this comment... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Came for lolis, got my lolis. It was an alright show. Although Yaichi got away way too easily with being an ass and we didn't even see his apology to Ginko lol. |
| So Mejin actually has a face, huh? Pretty nice ending. I thought they will cut it after 4th game and leave us hanging. I wanted to see him apologizing to Ginko :( |
| And this is why Ai is the best. |
 |
| Feels ok after previous 2 episodes in which only highlight was Keika's match. Bu the series was rushed and sloppy towards the end. I just hope 3rd and further volumes of the LN get translated faster. Up till ep 5 it was solid 9/10, then drop was slight but closer to the end it started breaking more. It's too much stuff cut out just fro the 1st and 2nd novel and this gap grows. Still it has it's cute moments and that ending somewhat fits. 7/10 overall |
| No conclusion for Ginko... sad boys. Overall I'd say Loli Shogi XD Unlimited Saga was a decent show. A bit awkward at parts, but also filled with some good moments. |
| Terrible ending, Doesn't even Apologize to Ginko and a reverse sweep that we dont even get to see. Oh Well Average anime in the end. 6/10 |

| I actually can't believe he was able to come back and beat the Meijin. I figured he would fight a good fight and either come close to winning, or win this match but lose the next. But for him to actually win 4 consecutive times was genuinely shocking to me. I'm not sure how I feel about them giving him 3 off screen victories. Just seems kind of cheap to me. The match was really intense though, and that's what the show did successfully. I think it had a great feeling of intensity and suspense for every match. Seeing the Meijin's face for the first time finally made his character seem more human. I liked his simplistic design. He seemed like a really kind guy. A little older than I initially thought too. RIP to Ginko. No on screen apology. She really was treated like dirt. But I could careless since I wasn't a fan of her to begin with. Still immensely happy for Keika though, she was easily the best character of the show. Speaking of, she was the first to reach out to Yaichi in his mind. Does that finally confirm she's Yaichi's true wife? I'll miss the lolis that's for sure. I do see a lot of complaining about the lolis though. Which makes me wonder, what else were people thinking when they saw this show? Lolis are plastered everywhere, so what else do you expect? It's Japan and anime for God's sake. You know what you're going to get with this one. Regardless, I think this put shogi in a positive light. I really wish I knew how the game worked, because I'm sure I would've enjoyed this even more. As for everything else, the art was appealing the character designs were really good for a number of characters including both Ai's and Ika. Also, thick cute girl from the Onsen finally showed her eyes! Hopefully she'll be a part of the harem. Overall, I had a lot of fun with this one. Lots of tension and excitement with the games, good development for a number of characters, appealing art and character designs, and most importantly, lolis. I'd like to see a second season for sure, but I'm not exactly sure where Yaichi can go from here, more titles maybe? Either way, hope to see more. 7/10 |
| An ok finale, but the shogi match was pretty intense. Overall, the show's been an enjoyable ride. Maybe even the guilty pleasure of this season. 7/10. |
  |
Coming into this show, I already new it was probably going to be base level and heavily saturated with uninteresting lolis, but then Ginko-san was introduced and my idiotic self thought "hey, this is a decently interesting character with a pretty unique design (compared to the rest of this show's characters anyways) and was genuinely looking forward to a ship that didn't make me cringe. So episode 11 came around and boy was I annoyed when mc went full douche-bag on her, but I also had hope that this event would lead to a finale where an apology and possible ship-worthy scene closed the show. Well...one rushed episode filled with the worlds most annoying loli ever (Ai#1) and all I can say is: |

Damn,I was hoping to see Ginko get shafted-oh wait,perhaps I shouldn't have said that ;) As for the Meijin,I got the impression he wasn't looking to win so much as testing out his theories about shogi,and pushing Yaichi to play as good as he could,and as for the lolis,who cares,they were cute and that's what matters. Starting to think that maybe I'd like to try and learn Shogi,but at my age(not telling you),it'd really be an uphill battle,and I don't like hills-well,not going up them anyway. |

| Continued to watch only for Ginko moments and for that I have no regrets. The rest of the show is not my cup of tea. Beyond the loli pandering, it tries to be something (drama) which it clearly isn't. |
| Definitely felt rushed. Honestly, if this show just focused on the loli antics I think I would have enjoyed it more because that stuff was actually pretty funny. There were a few cringey moments and the serious stuff didn't hit as hard as it should have. I mean how can you leave the Ginko apology out; feels like she got shafted. Not to mention just blowing past the last 3 games. I mean this fourth match here was actually pretty well done, so really they prob just needed more episodes to get the story across better. |

 |
| If I had understood Shogi better, I probably would have had enjoy the show more since they seems to present the aspects of a Shogi match pretty seriously. It was an alright show. The jokes were hit and miss and the only likeable character is Keika. But I like how the story progresses. 6.5/10 |

| Dunno, it was very engaging for lolibait, perhaps the most engaging series I've ever seen in that genre. They did loli right here, not making it a mere outlet for fanservice, but using the optimism and enthusiasm inherent to youth as a kick in the butt to our protagonist. The fanservice still existed and I don't fault that, but I feel like the series went way beyond. It excited me more than a certain well-respected shouji series, and that's saying a lot considering its trashy genre! |
| “Money can't buy dere” |
| Of course the only way Yaichi won was because of the "glowing eyes makes you read into the future" trope. The first match just had to end in a tie to conveniently waste time for the actual final match. Idk what to say, this really was just a lame finale and a lame show overall. This show always pandered to loli lovers, had no actual focus on the shogi aspect besides giving simple explanations and the cast was just really unlikable. Ginko really was the only good character in this show and honestly idk how the LN won awards. Maybe the awards this series earned was by loli lovers themselves. |

| All I can say about this anime is eh everything is done so basic and nothing really expands from that but at the same time it's not done horribly like sho-bitch, the pacing at times feels a bit rushed and some characters are glossed over but it's not horribly rushed like hakyuu houshin engi(even though I kinda have a guilty pleasure towards that anime for being rushed af), the art feels generic and doesn't have a unique charm to it like love live sunshine(My favorite Anime if you can't fucking tell) but it's not bad it's just........eh, the shogi battles feel mediocre and don't have enough weight to it like how in kaiji where every gamble feels like a life or death situation, but it's not bad either they're some parts that feel genuine, the characters don't have enough depth or interest and feels like tropes rather than interesting characters especially the main character, there's just something about him that feels generic and artificial about him, but he's not a horrible main character like EVERY FUCKING CHARACTER FROM FUCKING BANG DREAM AKA THE MOST PASSIONLESS ARTIFICIAL SHIT I'VE SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE FUCKNGADFSKJASDFOKDS *cough**cough* sorry about that But yeah everything just feels, eh, nothing horrible but nothing good to remember about either also STOP WITH THE FORCED PEDOPHILIA SHIT, LIKE I LIKE LOLIS BUT THEY'RE FUCKING 9 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF |
| hi |
| The score jumped like a little over 0.10 after the episode. |
  |
Jazzyforcefield said: The score jumped like a little over 0.10 after the episode. give it a 10 too and the score will jump a little higher, support greatness, smile :) |
| I waited he apologize to Ginko all the episode... and he didn't... Well, my final evaluation of this anime is 6... exaggerates too much in the amount of fanservice and lolis, besides not having taken a route with romance that would be more interesting, of course not with a loli.... |
| 『 』 |
| Woaw he won! What a surprise! No seriously why the fuck did they seriously tried to rise the tension ? No tension at all WE ALL KNOW HE WOULD WIN THE LAST ROUND since it's a crap anime since the first ep. All the""" tension""" scene was so annoying to watch. 1/5 the episode, 2/10 the anime. It was such a pain to watch this thing, too bad I use it for my AWC 2018 |
| Meijin blew a 3-0 lead wtf |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| HHHHMMMMMMMMMM THAT WAS A GOOD GAME, THE INTENSITY, THE MUSIC, THE EMOTION. Hhhhhhmmmmm that was good... And we finally got to see the Meijin's entire face for once. Also MC layed on the Loli's lap... GG I guess. Somehow, despite knowing literally NOTHING About Shogi whatsoever, somehow, this was an anime I was really into for some reason. It was tense as hell during a good chunk of those games and I really felt the emotion, made me want to come back more and more each week. THAT BEING SAID THOUGH... Everything else outside said games was... well... just anime? Like, the characters themselves, though I like them... I WOULD PREFER Not watching an anime that would give the cops a reason to break down my door. In other words... DON'T LEWD THE LOLIS PLEASE. Anyway, final score is an 7/10. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| The match was lit, but the ending .... eehhhhhhhh Well, its the only way to end this series, leave it to happy end. Insert all character in ending scene and tell the journey not over yet. Series 6/10 |
 MAL score and most user-based rating system are all joke, Imagine trusting plebs and hivemind. Find users who have good sense and rating and use them as a reference. Check my guide to rate Your taste is trash. Cope, seethe, mald |
| And here I thought he's gonna lose the next match just like Slam Dunk. I learned a little bit of shogi from this. If only I can memorize all of the pieces without looking on a guide... Some of the scenes made me laugh so hard like the one with Yaichi and that stoic girl with laptop. |
  |
| Cmoooooon. I was really enjoying this series wholeheartedly and then they mess up the last 5mins of this episode. Why would they skip everything. Where was the apology to Ginko. They had to talk and sort out their stuffs but everything got ignored. Man that really pisses me off. The series as a whole was pretty enjoyable. And I would really like to see another season. But who knows if that will happen the next 10 years... Thinking about giving it a 7 or 8. Have to sort out my feelings that felt a bit betrayed after seeing that blergh end... |
| attacker ai didn't win on defensive ai at all? |
 |
| The Meijin lost 4 games? In a row?! Woah Dude.. Series was enjoyable, 7/10 |
 |
| This was an awful episode to end an average series. They didn't even try to hide how much content they cut. I always forgot this series existed every Monday, and I have no doubt I will forget this series existed tomorrow. |
| okay! the lolicon show is over! Mr. Loli Yaichi won against Meijin...maybe the meijin got a bit soft? Almost all important characters went to the picnic even the stalker jagged teeth girl! 4/5. 7/10. |
 |
| This show was a bit disappointing. I was hoping to see some loli love, but show was a little too light on loli content after really hyping up that trait; it almost completely disregarded any romance; and it even skimped out a lot of the shogi stuff. Despite being so light on content, it still managed to be long and drawn out. A lot of time was wasted on meaningless drama and the most interesting parts of the story were neglected. A bunch of characters won matches that they shouldn't have won and lost matches that they shouldn't have lost were the plot to have any consistency or common sense. The MC is total scum for not cherishing his lolis more. Ginko was way too much of a jealous sadistic yandere to be likable - a total cock-block too (not that there was any cock to be blocked - but she totally killed any possibility for romance) Ai Yashajin was too bratty for her own good and a bit of an overdone Tsundere. Ai Hinatsuru was somewhat okay - it felt like she had a hint of tsundere and yandere, but mostly just cute and lovable and dedicated to her precious master. While I liked Ai Hinatsuru, Charlotte was undoubtedly the best girl - she was just so consistently and perfectly cute and calm. Proper, calm and composed, pure-hearted dere-deres like her who are open about their feelings are like a rare jewel these days. I'll probably give this show 7/10 for the cuteness factor, but I may bump that down to 6 when I come to my senses and realize just how terrible the plot was. Lolis FTW~! ...but sadly, this show did not win with the potential that it had. |
 |
YanAi, of course, shining throughout the episode, but especially as being the one to foresee Yaichi's moves better than anyone else watching the game. Not that much tsunAi in this episode to even talk about her here. |
| |
| Honestly I was really feeling this anime untill now but that ending completely threw me off. Typical LN adaptation bullshit. And he didn't even apologize to Ginko... |
 |
| Man, at first I thought this will have some depth but instead we got broken strengths, edgy dense generic MC, BS plot armors, unnecessary cheap melodrama and friendship nakama powah lol this show failed to show the ruthlessness of Shogi, "hardwork" pfff freaking anime logic, that shits irrelevant against talent. Real Shogi devours the weaklings and spit them mercilessly Still. 7/10 just for the lolis and overall decent harem designs and cast |

| I blazed through the series in 2 days. Good series. Shogi matches sometimes portrayed with so much intensity as to rival Hikaru no Go and various great sports anime matches, but not sustained. My favorite scenes are whenever Ai#1 goes into focus mode and chants "Ko, Ko, Ko, Ko, Ko, Ko... Ko!" I used to mumble similarly back during my Go days, so it's really nostalgic. The loli bait and gags are enjoyable too. 6/10. An average series that baited me well with good match scenes and loli. |
| I know Yaichi will win, but that battle was intense. I watch for the lolis the but shogi battles nice to see. |
