| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ----------------------------------------  Ah nice, refreshing episode with Aiko and a little of herself. Her history though...not so lovely. Natsumura has some skills though but overall, I found this episode to be good especially in the action department with emotions. Yup, nice fight scenes with Mahiro and Evangeline being badass once again. |

| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pretty wild episode so far. The first part in the spoiler While in the spoiler About the beginning, I really liked the start in the spoiler As things came back into the present in the spoiler About Mahiro’s place, well it’s obvious from the spoiler What got interesting over this section are the talismans in the spoiler Finally Mahiro gives Yoshino talismans in the spoiler About going outside, as Yoshino leaves and is outside in the spoiler About before the fight, things are getting uglier in the spoiler About Yoshino VS Evangeline, well the first thing occurred to me in the spoiler While in the school, I have to admit that Evangeline in the spoiler  As she takes off her mask. She looks splendid for some reason at that moment. However glory coming to a halt as the gas failed and Yoshino in the spoiler So it finally ends in the spoiler About Mahiro VS Spear Guy, the start of the fight in the spoiler  Really well done and I like his appearance. The fight really started off good and I hope to see more of it like that. About thee end, it’s kind of obvious the series with the spoiler About the ED, I have 3 points of nice interest in the list
About the preview, it looks very promising in the spoiler |

| Thank god that isn't a real plague lol hmmm then again if it was would it be legal to melt down the corpse for the iron o.o? Probably not a good question to ask xD They have made it clear that there is something unusual surrounding the death of mahiro's sister. |

| Awesome OP remains awesome XD, still makes me wonder if this series is going to go with an original ending, i mean granted i know the manga is way ahead of the 18 translated chapters so far but still. |

Ive seen till chapter 38 in raw and big revelations were made but still everything seems to heading to other events yet to resolve AKA they will continue for some time, so I think when the anime ends, the manga will still be running, so yeah, original ending for sure. GREAT EPISODE. I friggin love that opening! |

| My expectations from the first episode carried through! Lovely episode, nice scenes and story, and it is apparent now that Yoshino's girlfriend was Aika, without Aika's brother knowing. It also seems something about Aika's death is related to the mages. |
| Yet another amazing episode! This anime is probably my favorite of Fall as of now. |
| YUSH! Expectations were met! |
 |
| I didn't think i'll end up watching this anime, but that's one of the wonders of spare time. So far so good, it's enjoyable. Also our main character got used to the magic quickly and the fight with Mahiro and the spear guy was good. Lol I don't know the mc's name but can rember Mahiro. |
 |
| I liked it episode a lot. Got good feelings about this anime. The graphic and style of magic is nice, and i like the character of dead girlfriend. But why does one of the main guys wear hair clips? I dont aprove this. Quotes from Shakespearet are nice as well. |
| I like the style and the character designs. I'm looking forward to this show. I lol every time that girl stranded on the island is shown lying around in almost nothing thinking she is a big shot. |
| Hm, I don't know if I like this show or not. I guess I'll watch the next episode too. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Changing the way the fights were done was ok, but they didn't represent Yoshino's true character very well like they did in the manga, i mean her inner thoughts touched upon it but it was still much better represented in the manga. the animation remains great though, and if anything these early episodes are something to look forward to since it looses some quality after that. |
|
| Good episode the mafia/CIA chick must get upset alot getting owned by magic users....I would be frustrated to their all noobs lol. My favorite line from her was "Lonely grown women have alot of Toys" lol I see what she did there. Man dating your best friends sister is a sticky situation but its best if you tell them not wait till the world hits apocalyptic crisis |
| I;m beginning to like this series. |
 |
| This show is a bit better than what I expected. I like the characters and the fights are pretty cool. I don't see the point of those Shakespeare quote, but that's a minor problem.

| I feel like I am watching Guilty Crown. Yoshino is somewhat like Shoe, Mahiro like Gai & Aika somewhat like Mana. So, Yoshino's gf was only platonic? Anyway, if Hakaze is so powerful as she says & she is able to see everything, why doesn't she give directions to the guys to come & get her from the island? She surely knows where she is, since she knows everything. And let's say the island is somewhat far; She can chant some magic words & create something to get there. (Yes, apparently she is able to use magic even if she is on the island, just look at episode 2.) To me she looks more like a retarded witch. |
Gizzleby said: I suppose someone will come and lecture me about how I'm totally wrong about these things and it makes sense if you only twist it the way you want it to be. With your mentality you make it seem like your worth wasting the time on, don't make me laugh, someone else may have time to waste, but frankly trying to talk people like you out of anything is redundant since your narrow minded, and it has nothing to do with you liking or disliking this show either, its simply the way your present your thoughts, their is nothing open minded about it at all. |

All in due time will be explained, but their one explanation i can give right now since its not a spoiler its simply something you overlooked, you said she knows where she is? if i stick you a barrel and when you wake up your on a random island you honestly expect to know where you are? It was even said that the anime is disguised with magic so no one else can see it, also you should be patient they will explain the flaws of magic the very next episode, i believe even the title gave such indication, their are limits to magic. Even if she is the most powerful she isn't absolute. You make it seem like all magic is the same, they also said this episode since you like to reference that Mahiro can use "simple" magic through her talismans, why else do you think she told him not to fight that dude, its because even if he is good at fighting he is outclassed in terms of magic. |

You don't even know the rules of magic yet you believe you can criticize how she applies them, half baked theories based on lack of info just make you look impatient and childish. |

Since when you cannot express your opinion openly? I just said that those characters share that similarity. I didn't went to compare ZnT to SAO. Then, the execution is lacking. Childish, heh. I suppose you would consider me mature if I were to say, "ZnT is a masterpiece." |
| This one is unexpectedly good, although as not good as Psycho pass (with deep psychology stuff involved), but it is still a decent action show this season. I like Yoshino, he's calm and really mature, hes a big different compare to most of the shounen mc. The number episodes are still unknown? If it has 2cours, then it will be worth expecting for. |
| The fight between Yoshino and Yamamoto was different in the manga. She ambushed him in his house. He used a magic talisman to crash her into the wall. Then he kicked her into a cupboard and immediately took the gun and aimed it at her. He didn't foolish get closer to her as was shown in the anime. After his hamlet quotes and seeing his cold eyes she understood that he had no problem shooting her. Then he offered her a deal the same way as was shown. I don't see why it was necessary to change it. They probably just wanted to make it longer or something. As for Mahiro attacking the spear guy. Yeah, it was foolish, but it was quite in character as Mahiro is pretty much an arrogant prick. |

Gizzleby said: DJIzzyIzzyHitler said: Gizzleby said: care to elaborate?With episode two out, it is even more apparent than in episode one already, the characters are flat out idiots. Mahiro being told not to fight the guy with the spear, ofc he fights. His friend not using his talismans to sprint away from the assassin lady but rather chooses to trap himself in school running to the rooftop. And if that lady would have been only halfdecent in her job, she wouldn't be surprised by the boy coming from behind with her own gun. Then the boy commences to close the distance between the two of them so she has the opportunity to beat him in close combat which she does, like wasn't it totally obvious that would happen? Then she partners up with him and suddenly acts all emotional and caring, few minutes before she was threatening to shoot him all mercilessly. And by the way, dozens, maybe hundreds of people around you just died, I guess that doesn't get to you at all, right, just interrupts the epic action and dialog. These were just the obvious things I could recall just after watching the episode. I suppose someone will come and lecture me about how I'm totally wrong about these things and it makes sense if you only twist it the way you want it to be. LMAO man express your opnions man thats what a forum is for. I've said stuff about the supposed best anime "Sword art Online" and man I really got it |

How about to check my list first? ..And oh, I checked yours. Now I understand. |
| I cannot take anything the MC is saying seriously with that stupid ass ribbon in his hair... like it was annoying in the first ep now its just retarded... Anyway, some cool action and plot progression, I'm guessing Mahiro never figured out his friend was seeing his sister lol. I never noticed how girly the ed theme is lol... well... I guess its kind of going for that shounen-ai demographic as are a lot of shows this season lol. |

Gizzleby said: And you totally did waste the time ._. It was just a precaution for some fanboys that try to defend everything. I encountered these people a lot who just look for posts that contain some critical reaction to their new favourite series and then flame the hell out of the author for being a "hater" and tell him to just stop watching the show or commit suicide or whatever. Now you might read too much into this post of mine since you are one of those people that don't like being confronted with criticism. But I assure you, I just pointed out some things that in my opinion are some big flaws, with emphasis on "my opinion". And unsurprisingly I already got flamed, without any real reasons or explanations given, too. I mean, look at your post. It's just random insults. If you could explain I'd surely listen why you're thinking that of me. Like I explained my line of thought. By the way, I like you. Your scores make more sense. |
| Loving the OP but the ED feels incredibly out of place. Kinda like Beelzebub's 3rd ED even though it's a shounen. |

I didn't even bother to check your list, i rarely use other peoples ratings as a basis for my points, in this case your rating has no purpose of merit to what i'm trying to say, my point was simply your impatient nature of judging something that is incomplete so i presented an example in S;G which had many people looking like morons for judging it before it finished or do you wish to deny this? Now then lets see you breakdown while its so poorly executed and mind you your argument has to be reasonable to the concept that its two episodes in, or you could just admit here and now that you have no sense of patience. |

| Okay the Hamlet quotes were really corny :/ At least things seem to be picking up 4/5 |

Never have seen it so i can't relate to it, frankly though i have been told its overrated but thats besides the point You are completely dodging the point, i made mine so its your turn to respond to it, on how you are impatient concerning developments or are actually going to breakdown why the execution is done poorly. |

Oh, good that you know that someone will come and lecture you about it. Well rather, I don't really want it to be a 'lecture', just something you should consider. I'm not trying to say 'You're such a hater omg! Stop it!', you can stick with your opinions. 1) If Mahiro doesn't fight him, he'd probably be captured/killed. Samon ordered the dude to capture him. Mahiro is also the stubborn type who doesn't give a shit about what other people think. 2) Well, Yoshino only wanted to buy a little bit of time. Plus, those talismans' uses are numbered, so he can't just use them like they fall out of the sky. 3) Yamamoto thought that Yoshino would be there first since Yoshino was on a higher floor than her, but it surprised her that he wasn't there before her. 4) Yoshino closes the distance between the two of them, because he thought that it would shake her a little bit. But it didn't, and he ended up getting caught. Yoshino has brains, however, so he used a talisman to do what he did. 5) Yoshino makes a deal with Yamamoto, it's not like she's partnering up with him for free. Plus, it's not like her fight was with Yoshino in the first place, it was with Mahiro. She probably took his deal because the other end of the bargain because it was something that she gained. 6) So should the anime focus on how they got the disease and died? Sounds pretty boring to me. Well, maybe not, depending on how the execute that kind of anime. What can Yoshino really do? He was pretty shocked in the first episode. Even he said that somehow he 'believes every word that Mahiro's saying'. He was confused, got caught up in the mess, and somehow managed to get an understanding about what was going on. Yoshino is just a really calm person in general. If you still think they're idiots, go ahead and do so. |

Not trying to single you out but I'm curious about something, what do you mean by trying to hard, i have heard it in several forums already and i don't see the meaning it, you make it seem like the show should knows its place or something and has a limit on what it can or cannot try..... |
