| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It's a cute start especially with Kokkoro's sweet personality. She also has a somewhat childish behavior. The show takes place in a fantasy setting and kinda feels like living in an RPG world. The main protagonist is kinda boring though. It seems they're focusing a lot on Kokkoro and the MC's adventure and relationship so far. It's a cute show but going to keep expectations kinda low for now. |
 |
| Did she really ate a stone monster? |
| Kokkoro is just, precious! The art did justice. Not going to expect any plot here, I just need more of their daily life. The ingame story wasn't enough (even though there's plenty already). I like how they made the MC accurate to the game, also the jokes! Though it might be quite hard for people who haven't play the game, but taste is subjective anyway, for me I enjoyed it so much. |
micktu said: As much as I adored the game for past two years, this episode was a disappointment. Can't tell if it's a good thing yet, but it focused on events outside of early events in the game or manga, which are virtually the same--which in turn means there was no meaningful plot. Also, no intrigue left, except for a beautiful flashback scene that barely took 5 seconds. The tempo is ridiculous, and if you know nothing of the game, you would barely be able to makes sense of what the hell is this world at all, and what to expect of the plot. If you do, in fact, know the contents of the game, you can't help but notice that every character acts like a comedic idiot for no specific reason. I assure you that the plot and the characters are incredible in the original work, but I'm not sure what to expect of the anime version. I'll keep my hopes up, especially after learning that this, in fact, comes from the director of KonoSuba. Time will tell. I kind of like the comical idiocy of most of the episode, especially from Pecorine. You also have to remember this is for the fans (and yeah I seen this coming and it's a reoccurring theme with late 2010's mobile adaptations, I mean not many people if anyone asked for this that aren't fans of the game or the characters, think Kancolle). |
 |
| Story seems average but the colors were beautiful so it was good to watch |
 |
| What in the name of Arceus did I just fucking watch??? That being said, that was not a good first impression at all, to say the least, even if the overall material does prove to be better, though. |
 |
| Havent ever played the game but figured i would check out this show and so far, I'm not sure what to think about it. I'll watch atleast one more episode and see where it goes. I was thinking the same thing. It looked so out of place. |
| I have never played the game so no idea what is going on.. Kokkoro is sweet tho. Also, seems like the hungry girl tried to taste her sword when she got it the first time judging by the bite mark lol. |
| So except for kokkoro everyone has the mind of a 3 years old? They are all retarded? Also that whole princess knight thing sounds so gay |

Let's hope they recover from this disaster of an episode. Otherwise I agree with everyone whose opinion is "WTF did I just watch" and "Why is everyone mentally handicaped". This is most certainly not following the original flow. As someone who knows the source, if he already thinks it's "gay" I don't think this anime is going to change his mind. Look up his profile. Princess Connect is basically Kryptonite to him. |
| I wish Cowboy Bebop never existed. |
| lol the wolves...are something...lol |
 |
| This is the garbagiest pile of feces i ever had the displeasure of watching....What the fuck was it? The protagonist is a special needs kid, the white haired girl is the most annoying character i have ever seen in a long time, no wonder she would be desperate to tag along with the special needs kid and immediately suck up to him, i think he is the only one that can afford to suffer her presence in this world. When this show tries to be funny, it makes you cringe instead. I honestly want to give a +1 score to every show on my list, soo this pile of garbage can be the only one with a score of 1. |

| Lol, I thought it was pretty funny. Everyone acting stupid and being so random added to it. Of course course it only works because this anime is playing it straight. And Kokkoro is a cutie. So far I don't see a reason to stop watching. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Ok an almost mute protagonist? At first I thought this was gonna be a One Room esq series but didn't realize it's a proper one lol. Also is this series secretly being made by KyoAni lmao, really digging the character designs |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| What was that?!? That made almost no sense. |

Princess Connect is basically Kryptonite to him. There are a lot of problems with the story: 1. too many female warriors. Unless you have a different system to procreate like in one anime were they are born from a tree, you cannot have so many women having life threatening occupations or occupations that might cause them to miss the fertility window. That is why modern world is dying. 2.the two thieves act really unmanly 3.what man eats crepes? 4. even if one loses his memories he will not revert to the age of a toddler Also while I am honored for you looking at my profile I am curious what from it made you say this type of anime is my kryptonite. I have a varied list of anime including seinen shojo shounnen and others. There are two things I hate in anime: extremely unrealistic settings and anime that try to feed you propaganda. |
| As expected from CygamesPictures, this looks really good. This was one of the shows I was most looking forward to this season, not because I played the game, but because I liked what I saw of the girls in the PVs, especially Pecorine, and I must say that this first episode delivered, it was super fun! I'm so in love with Pecorine, she's so gorgeous... and there's so much boing ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Both Pecorine and Kokkoro are so cute <3 Freaking wolves lol. So many waifus at the end... I want an English version of the game xD. Looking forward to the next episodes. |

| The moment I saw that spear, I thought it was an Aghanim's scepter. (⊙ヮ⊙) |
| All men, kings or peasants, die equally. |
| another great show to follow weekly, very beautiful animation and funny too |
| Aaaaaaand another game adaption after shachou battle and shironeko project which first episode is already complete trash. This seems to be a trend this season |
| that was very wholesome first episode and the episode was not confusing like how some people are saying anyway i give this episode a 5/5 |
 ”A fight isn't won once a victor is decided, it's won when someone loses.” – Izayoi SakamakiI don’t even know the real names of the two… no, three that I killed back then. I just closed my eyes, put my hands over my ears and tried to forget it all.” – Kirito MY ANIME LIST |
| As someone who knew the game existed, but otherwise has seen zero game play of it, I had an enjoyable time with this first episode. I went in with low expectations, so that probably helped. This probably isn't something to praise the episode for, but having our main boy be mostly mute and express through body language was cute and a breath of fresh air from common tropes. Does this provide any substance other than being different? Probably not, but I'll take it. The slapstick humor and colorful visuals made for a pleasant, relaxed experience. The characters mostly have their heads in the clouds, but if that's going to be consistent with the world, or a source of humor, then it shouldn't be much of a problem. Seems like this will be the more wholesome equivalent of Konosuba at this rate. |
| No joke, best premiere of the season. |

| The self-insert character is way too dumb and the setting is beyond generic. I never played the game. I saw some good Momochi fanart, which was the reason why I had any interest in watching this, if she isn't the cutest thing ever this will be a very easy drop. |

| This time we have star-shaped isekai city instead of round one. 9/10 |
 |
| the animation was surprisingly good |

I'll keep my hopes up, especially after learning that this, in fact, comes from the director of KonoSuba. Time will tell. I have the same sentiment as you. It makes me wonder if they'll do an original story because of this. I hope not because the story from the game was really good and well done so I'll keep an eye out for future episodes. Though people would really not understand the story much especially when Re:Dive is a sequel of Princess Connect! (2016 game) which is a shame. |
 |
| This is really not harem? |
  |
| Lol again i see people hating on mobile games anime adaptations, i never played before Pricone but i know they have a legion of fans so its important to pleasure them, i mean the service its for them and im good with that, gonna keep watching this... |
 |
| Crunchy never fails when it comes to picking up the best stories and top picks of the anime season. Just as well we had the last few minutes. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Kokoro's mouth really looks like a butthole |
 |
| the waifu level of this show is already far beyond 9000 |
  |
| I will watch this only for the animation and the fan-service, the pacing is really poor and the direction disappointed me a little, taking into account that this is the same director who worked in Konosuba. Anyway, Pecorine is best girl and I would love to rest on her breasts while she eats. |
| Tbh I didn't know this is an adaptation of a game, it was fine, seems like the typical adventurers world / isekai, unlucklily for me seems like it will be an harem? The ending shows like 30 different girls. And if it's hard for me to watch an harem with 5 possible romances then if this turns out with more than 2 (since this isn't a romance anime) it will be a no watch from me. And another problem are the mentality of the characters, a lot of people already said it, but are they babies? The comedy makes Kokoro look stupid if she isn't already, the main character well, for now isn't doing anything but can't even talk?? and the other girl is just stupid with no brain at all. I am going to give it a try because the animation-colors are great and the main boy looks cute. |

Ohta08 said: It's time for Grimnir on the big screen ,granblue memes aside i really enjoy how dumb this was.Damn, I didn't know grimnir got an anime Played the game a for a little bit in JP so i couldn't really speak for the actual story since it mainly seemed like light hearted fluff from what i played for a cute girl gacha collecting rpg with very high productions since it's cygames and i play a ton of their parent game gbf. taking the mostly mute MC approach just like the game can honestly just pretend this new born baby doesn't exist i'm just ready to see our gluttonous knight eat everything...EVERYTHING, say it with me people "i'm watching this for the cute waifus" if you aren't well you're gonna have a bad time |
 |
| Reminded me a boat load of Konosuba! I was laughing the entire episode. Yeah it was dumb as hell but I love stupid comedy! Also Kokkoro is a fucking angel and the abundance of Waifus in this anime is absurd. I'm ready for this ride! |
| Listen to my podcast https://anchor.fm/waifusandweeaboos Follow my twitch. https://www.twitch.tv/sorasensei1 Fall 2024 Waifus on Profile "You can have multiple Waifus" -me |
| Quite the sweet and funny start. The elf loli is super adorable and the always hungry melon oppai air head girl is cute too. Also lol so many girls shown in the end scene, looking forward to seeing em all. |
 |
| Oh, my awesome goodness!!! Those dopey looking wolves are amazing! The best character in the entire anime thus far is the dopey wolves. |
