Though it felt like this anime could've/should've ended at episode 3, I somewhat enjoyed the rest and the ending.

7/10

Aww... it's over.
And I thought the ending was perfectly fine. Could've been longer, but I didn't really need some crazy battle with Onyx.

See this is where i have difficulties. I have to admit i am a fan of these types of harem shows, and also Rie for most her rolls.

However, as much as i enjoyed this episode which i really did, I can't get the image out of my mind that Ryuuji wallowed in grief, the side girl was useless till the end, there was NO FIGHTS at all (Onyx loses to moe hearts and they somehow get inside by steamrolling him for a moment).

i liked it a lot and looked forward to it but i know it was just plain average.

Done. Not the best ending or worst one, but it really did not make sense since so many things were happening and at the end Onyx gets owned by a giant heart, really..
Overall I'll give it a 7/10, sounds pretty fair.

Damn it finished too quick!! Noooooo

man that was pretty intense at the beginning. A lot of different emotions in this final episode. It was really interesting. One things for sure: Maruga is the best!

The love engage aura was pretty cheesy but whateer right?!?! They kissed!

Ryuuji's parents came outta nowhere to fuck up the black dragons eye with the boomerang sword. I lol'd and was like WTF haha.

The ending when everyoe came together was interesting. Can't beleive Kai is the teacher too.

All in all I thought it was a satisfactory ending. I do believe there will be a season too though since onyx doesn't seem to be out of the picture based on Sapphie's word.

8/10 for show

First of all, this is purely my rant/opinion of this show. So for all of you who loved it, please don't hate on me for hating on the last episode.

This episode was fine until the second half of the episode. As soon as that guy crashed the helicopter into the plane, the whole thing just fell apart. Seriously? WTF? Why not shoot? And the crash only ends up breaking the windows, barely damage the frame at all. Then the BMW continues to do a jump off of the helicopter wreckage, which could totally function as a ramp, right? Not to mention Ryuuji's parents showing up at he last moment, only to do absolutely nothing. And don't even get me started on "love engage." If the producers didn't put that in there, I may have been able to ignore the unrealistic series of events that had occurred just prior to it, but nooo.Onyx just had to die from a freaking kiss!And to top it all off, the producers decided to go with a harem ending where all the girls still want him, even though obviously he and Rose should be a couple now. This is probably one of the most unsatisfying and cliched endings I've ever seen, leaving me even emptier than the OreImo good end that aired as ep 12. Somehow, I have a gut feeling that the Infinite Stratos ending is going to be even worse though. Good thing that show can make up for it with amazing mecha fight scene animations that are nearly on the Gundam level.

There was probably only one thing in this episode that was pretty good and that was Ryuuji's confession. It was blunt, from his heart, and confident. Other than that though, this ep was a piece of crap.

Animation: 8/10
Music: 8/10
Character design: 9/10
Plot: 7/10
Ending: 0/10
Total : 6.5/10



Errr I think I'm double posting but ya


I agree with what you said about the realism but the score....how'd ya end up averaging the entire show a 6.5/10 when the rest of the score is above a 7? LOL. I guess the ending really did make a huge difference :p

now that I think about it, I sorta like how you score an anime based on the average between each category. I should do something like that as well...

Sadly that was not even a fight! I'm stuck deciding the score between 6 to 7 and either way I would still watch season 2 if it came out.

I like the slow-ish piano song they played during "serious" parts, can't wait for them to release the OST.
For those of you ranting about the harem ending/no giant dragon fight it's because the novel is way ahead of the anime, and they want to be able to make more anime adaptions of the next few volumes; I've read ahead and if they do make a new season it'll have better content, assuming DEEN is up to the job.

ending sucked, not gonna go into detail. I was too devestated by the ending of this anime. Through the whole serious this was on the borderline of OK-GOOD for me, but this ending tackled the series, knocking it the border of BAD-OK

despite i hate all those lame previous ep, i was having high some hope that they would at least done this ending right after seeing maruga froze the whole runway, and eriko's car dash in along with a hype bgm... well...

then ryuuji's parents randomly showed up, n then the "power of love" defeating onyx with a big PINK HEART??!!!.... n then the harem... gosh... even facepalm cant describe my feeling in the end...

Pretty nice ending to an OK series. Only thing I didn't like was how (pinku haato's!) and how quickly Onyx got defeated, but meh; can't have everything I guess.

Overall a 7/10 for me.

No, really I know that this is action romance but to go as far as to "Love engage" and all those pink hearts? It was like sweetnes overkill...
This ending is really lame...


Unfortunately you are sooooo right. And what a stupid plot. The whole Dragon Crisis thing. Yeah it was a lie so just forget it. Lol!!!!

They just threw in a hurry a small conflict so they can finish and get over with it.
The first three episodes the show looked promising but it ended being a big failure.

I'm giving the series an overall 7/10. It was nothing spectacular, but it did entertain me in the past few months and it delivered what little I wanted from it. It was nice seeing Ryuuji's parents. 5/5 for the ending episode, they pulled it off decently (well, apart from the pink heart, that was too much even for me, and that is saying something).

Unfortunately it's a prime example how an anime with awesome story and huge potential as well as a nice twist at the start can become a "nothing special" kind of romance anime. Last 3 episodes were abysmally cliche in almost every single way possible.

Also, I do love anime that leaves unanswered questions and things to speak about, but I despite anime that leaves out things like explaining basics of the setting universe or skips background of characters.

As a redeeming factor, I must say this anime has one of the best opening I've heard.

how do people give this a 7? the whole series was awful I feel generous with a 3/4. the wolf girl was about the only decent character. Maruga was ok.

Ryuuji was an idiot, and Rose was beyond annoying.

I just don't know why I watched this or how people could think it was good. Onyx got jobbed out. Rose/Ryuuji somehow being in love and kissing after barely meeting made me want to puke.

A 3/4 is a 7.5. o.O
I liked the anime, though the big pink gigantic heart was a bit over-the-top.

Nice is cheesy ending! I'd have liked a crazy fight but I guess I'll have to settle with the power of love.

I'd like to see more of this, only to witness, 10 series down the line where the next power-up move is Anal Engage! Unlikely outside of doujinshi.

Still, even though it was early evening when I watched this, I still felt sleepy! It took so long to watch this series just because I kept falling asleep!

Okay, so this definitely wasn't the most brilliant anime or something, but it was certainly an anime that I enjoyed.

Pros and cons:
+ dragons
+ Marga
+ supporting characters that actually return to help
+ action scenes are epic: how the car went onto the airplane in this episode for example

- Rie Kugimiya and Rose

Story-wise this anime is weak and it's not very special, but it's a likeable 7 for me.

Meh. Cheezy ending. Heart COMBO!!! Lulz.

Story wasn't that stong, and his parents weren't ever fully shown. Seemed to be just a filler show for a season that Rie Kugimiya needed for some extra money lol.

Well, whatever, it was an enjoyable 7.

Well I ended up loving this anime, great characters. ♥ Rose and Ai as a close second. Haha at Ai sulking after Onyx got cleared. I was rooting for a sweet romantic ending with Rose and Ryuuji all the way, so I was pretty happy with how it ended up. That scene at the end in school was pretty funny.

But that random love engage one hit ko on Onyx was just ... They could have done way more with this anime, too bad it was rushed so badly.

Ending was alright - the last battle was VERY anti-climatic, though, and very cheesy. I liked the Romance, and I hope they tie up loose ends in a Season 2. I'd actually prefer Season 2 to be 24 episodes, instead of 12. 12 is just too short for any enjoyment whatsoever (storyline also feels rushed).
