It was OK. Not all that into the show since it's pretty generic, but it was a decent episode. We got to see some character development and back story on Aria.

This show seems to be getting worse. I was actually bored during this episode. But I really want to like it. Ugh.

It needs more Luke and less girls talking and eating in disgusting ways.

And why is that old man who's pretty much lost it still in this? Does he actually have something to do with the plot?
Oh and thanks to most people here mentioning it in the threads of the previous episodes, I can't help getting annoyed over Cecily's breastplate, in it's literal meaning .
Oh well, Aria makes up for that : D Except for the fact that she's a sword : ( Or.. How is it really? They explained it as her being both a sword and a human O.o

Oh gosh, so the zombie-like people from the prison walk around with larvae-like stuff or something in their mouths, and stuff is stuff ...wait O.o
Bah, stupid Cecily, just kille the zombieguy instead O.o Tch, can't even kill a being that is already dead.
Also, no no, really, Siegfried can't be the the man in black, no no, no way xD...... I'm quite sure he is actually.

Anyway, alot of Aria : D Quite alot of Lisa : D Too little Luke D: and too much Cecily D:

BitchMaster said:
And what? IS it me or there's a lot of praises for Cecily for being a coward just because she's MOE while people just bash on Luke fon Fabre when he did kill a guy before cowering? And in these kinda shows, I can't help but root for the bad guys since the good guys make me barf with their goody-2-shoes' philosophies: "A sword is for protecting bla bla bla,...."

Right, there was actually a lot of picking on Luke fon Fabre for being a wimp O.o
And yes, the bad guys aren't going on about "protecting" stuff anyway >.>
BitchMaster said:
Otherwise, why should they be made? To ride on it? Hell no!!!

Well if you've seen Chrome Shelled Regios, you should know pretty well that it's possible to ride a sword xD

Boring. I find it really hard to watch this anime without falling asleep. Quite standard storyline. Worse is they had to have a character who cannot kill (reminds me of tales of the abyss, but hey that was way better IMO). I guess the only thing it has going for it is the cute characters, with the exception of Cecily coz for some reason I just think her clothes design is bloody retarded.

I'll continue watching coz Lisa is a cute loli and Aria is a well-endowed sword.

Duh, I know Layfon was a cool guy and all, walking through mordor and ain't afraid of anything.... But the "ride" I was talking about is directed at Cecily and not in the manner of surfing, but... Oh wai-, you're too young for this talk and your parents will screw me if they ever found out what I've been teaching you....

Oh I saw what you did thar, no really, riding a sword's all about surfing, since surfing boards are for weaklings. Also, your version of the "ride", no really, that oughta hurt.

And besides, Layfon ain't that cool, he's too.. uuh.. he's to "meh", or something

Duh, blame the anime for lacking the LN's details and making Layfon too wishy-washy, though I do appreciate how well they have portrayed him in serious mode...

I have been reading up to volume 8 and so far I like it more than the anime and sympathize with him even more than before as well as cooling my annoyance toward Nina since the reason she annoyed me was only due to bad adaptation... Wai-, it's not CSR board, is it? Sowwie LOL ;D

I'm close to dropping the series. The story is reminiscent of a basic RPG outline, the characters are all shallow, the two main female characters wear skimpy clothes - one of which supposedly being a sword of mass destruction - and there's very little of interest. Without any decent action and no 'you saw my boobs!' humour this time around, I found this to be the weakest episode thus far. Honestly, all this has going for it is perverted humour.

WOW, I nearly barfed a little in my mouth when I saw those bugs.
I like Aria a lot. It's really cool how she's a sword and yet she is also a woman. I was expecting her age to be in her 100s, not in the 40s or 50s. Shame on her past though.
I don't blame Cecily on how she feels about killing people. She just became a knight recently, so it's normal for her not to know how to kill people yet.
haha, I felt sorry for Lisa, it seems like Luke doesn't feed her any good food. lol

By now I'm only watching this because Luke reminds me of Akizuki from Bakumatsu Kikansetsu Irohanihoheto -- and Aria surprisingly seems like an interesting character, didn't expect that.

I'm convinced the man in black is Siegfried and that Lisa is a hammer or an anvil... I've jumped over the ED and OP so I haven't seen the hammer in the background, like someone pointed out - so my initial guess was that she's an anvil. xD But sure, if there was a hammer, I'm sure that's what she is.

And only 12 eps? In that case the 3 first episodes have been a bit too slow, they'll need to pick up a bit -- I was actually waiting for a bigger/more complex plot to start emerging nowish. But I suppose this is it, then. Oh well.

Celily needs to grow some backbone. She said she became a knight a month ago but she's been training for years. Or she kills or will be killed.

Aria seems like an interesting character. Also agree that Cecily needs to at least kill the threats in front of her (kill or be killed is brought up several times). Curious as to the plan of the guy of the black hood is though (of course its to revive the devil or God as they see it, and that it's easy to tell who the guy in the hood is, but what are his reasons for doing so?).

Lol, now we get zombies manipulated by monsterous oversized bugs. I'm guessing that the black coated man did this also.

Cecil is too soft hearted. She can't be knight. Infact, she doesn't deserve to be a knight since her life was in danger and she still couldn't kill the enemy. I'm guessing that because of her "pure" heart, Aria would agree to be her "personal" sword.

Wonder what's the deal about that black-coated man and the rampaging knight in the end. Also, after seeing the comments about Lisa being a weapon, I checked back to the scene and found out there's a possibility that Lisa might be one.

Saw the third episode.

I don't know.. I'm considering dropping this.

The only interesting things so far are Aria, Luke and the general "medieval" setting.

The bug thing was plain disgusting, as the arm full of eyes at the beginning. Blearg!

Aria is attractive. The spell for the transformation into the sword is strong:
"Nemuri wo hodoke. Shinjitsu wo tukame. Kaze wo kono te ni. Kami wo korose!"

Several English translations for the phrase are found on the Net. Mine is the following:
"Wake thee up. Grasp the truth. Come unto me, wind. Slay God!"

Feel the same way, bored. The biggest problem is Cecily though, did she not think about killing when she first decided to become a knight? With that resolution, how could she even be accepted as a knight? I thought she swore to protect the city and the people, but when somebody was going to harm them, she would not take them down? One more, last one, does she know how to fight at all? She looks all weak and useless o.O?

Aria seems like a cool enough sword-woman, she's sexy, kind, and wise. I know Cecily was really unreliable again, but I like how Aria comforted her and said "you're going to live for a long time."
