Huh now that I think about it, that OP song is somewhat catchy.

Gien is tougher than I had thought...
However, episode felt rather dull, not really interested in the antagonist with his cheesy lines.

Judging from the OP, there will be two more "good person" that will sided with MC.
That must be option number 3, because of her lord's weak spiritual power. That's somehow pretty obvious, knowing that is the MC's first fight and he just have to fight against a veteran.
And that "fact" about "can disobey Lord's order" making it feels harder to deal with.

Mediocre episode, I would even say it was bad.

Fight continues with both Generals releasing their Noble Phantasm's Mystic Arts. I still feel this is very similar to Fate.
Antagonistic dialogue feels very uninspired.

These paint ball splatter effects that are used during the fights are really bad, I don't see the point of it at all.

So apparently the Generals don't always have to obey their Lords, That's kinda interesting.

"Let's set the building on fire"
"No, It would inconvenience people"
-> Minutes Later, building destroyed. Might as well have set it on fire.

I have no clue what the MC was hoping to achieve by looking for his phone in a death battle scenario, It felt stupid. Maybe there's an explanation?

Bottomline, Fire Extinguisher OP Nerf Please.

Zhou Yu vs Wei Yan. I suppose the setting is from the Three Kingdoms.

ugh I hate the effects in this anime especially that weird black lines effect I don't even know what it's called and it pisses me off and the fact that it's consistent through out the entire episode I could not be more frustrated towards an effect other than the cheap paint splatter but personally I think the black lines are worse. Well at least we got the plot or part of the plot revealed that's a good thing the fight on the other hand could have been better.

Not bad, the thing that i am disapointed most is this is only 10 min run.

A little bit better than the first episode. The effects are still really bad in this show, though.

Actually, I like this anime. It can be a bit of Fate Stay Night clone, but MC heroine looks damn nice. Also opening is pretty good. Does anyone know, how many episodes it will have?

"Students should listen to their teachers". Yeah and teachers shouldn't try to kill their students.

The black lines and paint stains are a bit distracting, but overall I like the style.

That the generals can disobey their lords is interesting.

Again, this is Fate Stay Night

This is so paint-by-numbers that it could be a fanfic, but given how bad this season is overall I'll stick with this for another episode just in case the writers figure out how to write and the artists figure out that paint splots and lines aren't "art".

Except those paint splots are "art". It's a type of brush stroke used in writing and art by the Chinese. Well it's generally used in papers so i suppose it is awkward to look in TV and in animation.

Excaliburrrr!!
Animation lazier than toei's tiger mask, & hide behind all that messy texture.
Her design, red & blue helmet, round outlets, remind of megaman Zero.

Exposition also similar to fate. Mc needs his phone, just why... Shirou don't stay baka pls.
So far only designs good & nice ed song.

These two episodes really felt like a regular one cut in half.
Now that being said, I do like the MC showing at least a bit courage in this episode, hope that continues.

These filters feel so random. They don't look too bad over characters, it gives them some unique look, but at least cover the entire character, not just 40% of the screen lol.
