Akatsuki did well during those fighting scenes

Looking forward to the next arc.

I normally don't care for fanservice in anime, but La Folia, dat body.
I love how La Folia provoked all the girls in his harem with that kiss and Nagisa is just smiling because her brother is surrounded by a bunch of beautiful girls(which is odd) or she's treating the situation like a drama series. Hopefully La Folia appears again, she replaced Asagi as my favorite girl.

1. did the girls take off their clothes so that Kojou could have a better feel?
2. So, it can't be any girl to take blood from, they need to be a spirit medium.

Some facts or speculations I know about awakening Kojou;s familiars:
1 spirit medium's blood awaken 1 familiar.
Once the spirit medium's blood been taken in and the familiar released, the spirit medium's blood that was drank from, will not release another familiar. ( seeing how Kojou need to drink the blood of a different spirit medium)
It seem that the familiar that will be released is the one that is currently watching over or protecting Kojou.

3. Then why the twin headed dragon familiar awaken with Yukina's blood and La Folia's blood? Yukina already had her blood drank to awaken the lion familiar. Then does that mean the act only give one chance and work for one day, or that Yukina's blood is fine because her blood was already used to partially awaken the twin headed dragon in the early episode?

I could just sweep it under the harem plot, but I would like a explanation.
Btw, I think Kojou is getting weaker.

I swear, sometimes this show reminds me of Fate/stay night VN H-scenes.

They're getting undressed for most silly reasons, getting into erotic positions for even sillier reasons and of course, the look on their faces when their blood is being taken isn't helping.

And yet, for some reason, this show is both fun and interesting.
Let's see who's going to be the new girl introduced for next chapter :D

I agree with everyone that this show is indeed generic but nonetheless, it's entertaining as hell and the fan-service is pretty damn good because of the sexy and attractive art.

It's been a while since i have watched an ecchi show and that made me appreciate the show's fanservice more :P

We need moar La Folia though.

Interesting but 2nd point never confirmed. When he awakened previous familiar only had arrow girl with him.

Explained in this episode that dragon needed two mediums. Also this sub plot from lion organisation about Yukina being the vampire queen or something.

Liking the shown mainly for the epic action and main plot in background which is hinting at apocalypse.

Fan service good too :p

For her combination of boldness and crafty way of getting around Yukina's cockblock, princess La Folia wins this episode. Bonus points for her royal "assets".
^ That's were exactly my thoughts xD

Kojou is really a lucky bastard and this is getting better with each episode! I really am liking all the girls which is pretty rare for me in a harem anime. Nevertheless, Asagi gets first place for me ^^

This was pretty good actually.

If I got this right it seems like not just any blood will unlock this guy's familiars. Makes sense I guess.

I'm very curious about what happened to the previous Kaleid Blood. I hope they explain it before this show's over.

Hmm, I'm also thinking for the removing of clothes and why did it seem so natural for the princess to remove like that...

Also, since the nakedness meter goes up each ep for the girls getting undressed, from just the neck, a few buttons, to totally baring the front, I think coming next, must be in pantsy and bra and then totally naked...?

Kojou has one of the best harems I've seen in quite some time.

La Folia is awesome. Dat kiss in front of the rest of the harem.

I'd rank the harem: La Folia, Yukina, Asagi, and then Sayaka. Would we count Kanase as part of the harem yet? Not sure. Though she will be in the future.

Another girl for the harem next episode. The one with the short brown hair? Or is that Sayaka with a haircut?

I'm really liking this show. One of the better shows I've watched this season, even if it generic. I would definitely read the Light Novels if they were translated into English on a consistent basis.

Looking forward to the next episode and arc.

This anime has the weirdest fighting scenes, seriously instead of a vampire Kojou seems more like a summoner who can regenerate.

Episode was nice especially the awakening ecchi scene, still we need more of Natsuki-chan.

I was really feeling this episode until the part with the kiss and the misunderstanding among these silly ass girls. Koujo didn't kiss La Folia. La Folia kissed Koujo, but they were too chicken shit to hunt La Folia down and harass her.

I doubt Kojou'll chose one, but if he does, I hope it's La Folia. She's the only one that's straight forward it seems. This tsundere shit is getting old.

It was a good episode, the fight itself was weak, but putting the opening song to touch made ​​her become a little better.
La Folia is very hot, holy shit.
And I still think Yaze is better than Kojou, even though he had little screen time.
Anyways, i hope the next arc is good.

End of yet another arc that sees a good catch for the protagonist, with attached jealousy etc.
The plot is interesting, but I'm all hot hinterland, ruin what is built on it, enough with all this mess if only to women who contend forcibly kissing, stroking and rubbing, that is not enough to revive him a kiss, but they also had to undress these two? Give me a break! XD
Happy are those who were looking for a good dose of fanservice! ^ _ ^
Poor design, as we have become accustomed the anime so far.

More blood = more familiar = stronger Koujou = bigger harem.

Koujou's harem members at the end having a little quarrel on him was funny lol. Yeah, even imouto-chan approves.

Next arc, harem member recruitment part 4.

I don't care if this is so generic if it is so entertaining.
