THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
THE SUBS ARE OUT. Hey I like it! The magic is GREAT! The ecchi parts are also good! The comedy is good! I LOVE the animation and Garuda along with principal and Amelia the teacher but Lucricia along with the whole class is cool.

So I figure now that the island does not fly anymore that they have to deal with those who have access to the Island from the earth bottom. I wonder how this will turn out.

This reminded me TALES OF ETERNIA!

Kinda sad it's a single-episode OVA... wish there was more. :P
and because of that the story ending felt a bit rushed...;;

what to say? Rukia and Shalon are luvv <3 XD

Definitely better than several of Konami's other recent animated projects (Tokimeki Memorial Only Love, Sky Girls), but still nothing groundbreaking. And since I never played the games, I didn't really care about anyone about but Aloe (who vaguely reminds me of Sasami from Tencihi Muyo).

Etto...
Did any group fansubbed this already?
I hope someone will tell me.
I was planning to watch this but I can't watch it without understanding what they're saying.
Although it's still ok for me to watch the raw... but really...
I hope anyone would be kind enough to tell me or rather us...
Thanks!

Basically the whole thing is introductions and a magical contest to see if they pass blah blah blah rank...you know the whole gimick of magic and testing due to the whole thing being a school.

SO GO WATCH IT AND ENJOY THE MAGIC! I COMPARE THIS TO TALES OF ETERNIA!

Just watched. It was really boring and the story does not make sense, but the general chara design is ok. Not good, not bad, it's just average.

The animation quality was quite good, and I lol'd more than anything else I watched this season. It ended up a lot better than I originally expected. Shame it's only 1 ep.

This was fun to sub :>
I wish it was made into a series, rather than half the OVA being useless fillers. I felt that the end was really rushed, but was an average closure, with some funny points in between.

8/10

Animation was quite good, but that's just about it. The story was just average and quite rushed. Can't really expect much from just 1 episode. There were also some funny and entertaining moments, but overall it's just average.

It had its cute moments. For a 30-minute OVA it got its point across all right, and threw in a few laughs and some fanservice for good measure. A good "light snack," as it were.

Wasn't this OVA based on a DS game or something? It kind of made me want to look into that.

Animation-wise, the animation studio did an impressive job. I like it. (and Shalon especially when she's on nekomimis, and also Ruquia's boobs >////<)

However, due to the fact that it's a one-shot OVA, it's hard for people to appreciate it because QMA is pretty much an alien series to us without much information on it...

They should've considered making one whole series instead. That way probably they can get better remarks.

this is bullshit. I watched this expecting a generous amount of Shalon and I got like 30 seconds tops. The cat ears scene as a whole didn't even last that long. WHAT A LOAD OF SHIT

I wasn't expecting anything good from this, but I actually liked it.
The animation is fine, the comedy is funny, the characters are amusing (Malariya ftw).
Wish there were more than 1 episode.

Agreed. This didn't turn out to be as good as I thought it was going to be. At least Shalon was there for a little bit. ;_;

It was somewhat mediocre. The start of the anime made it look like something that'd be action-packed but it wasn't at all.

I really liked the teachers' abilities. Especially the head of the school. Kung Fu Palm blast magic or something, lol.

Pretty random and funny. But whose bright idea was it, to call a girl Malariya?

Just wanted to say this is actually based on the KONAMI arcade game series of the same name. To those who were saying they don't like how you don't get much time to know the characters, I guess this is just meant to be a bonus to those who play the game and already know the characters well enough from that.

I'd highly recommend playing either of the DS games, as they're the only way to legally experience the games outside of Japan, and even though they involve a lot of reading and question answering, they'll probably help with learning more about the characters.
