| well that was rather weird.... I don't know what was going on but I guess I'll watch more? his berserk mode looked cool? a rich loli and her butler talking stones weird stone monsters... uh yeah. |
 |
| Demonbane - loli - cthulhu mythos + greek mythology huh? Even rich girl's name is Ruri, her butler kicks major ass and she surrounds herself with maids... Quite decent i must say but it didn't rock (pun intended) my world |

TheComposer said: Best unintentional comedy of the season! I'll be watching this for that, the soundtrack, and the statue who keeps ending his sentences with "oni." |
| It's a bit like Power Stone plus MegaMan. Plus some cool fights. And a somewhat interesting plot(where?). Throw in a loli and a butler. With a battalion of maids. ...And yeah, I think I'm sold on that last part I said. Will watch this. I'm not gonna expect anything big though. |
 |
| Oh god I love how tacky/old school this is. I am going to enjoy this. also pretty funny to see Blossom from PPG and Kuroshitsuji's Sebastian here, lol |
| Forgive my cynicism but how long before we get to the inevitable beach episode on Ruri's private island?? |
Nachtwandler_21 said: Reminded me of Star Driver much. Hope here we'll get some decent action not only characters and mystery. same, i was thinking star driver and some code geass here, but i absolutely loved this episode, i love action cool mech fighting maids and, oh they have to throw in a loli, lol. |
| Currently Watching: Durarara!! |
| I think it was a great start for the series, really looking forward to the future episodes :) |
| What is this I don't even They put in Sebastian, Power Rangers (or Megaman, whatever suits your fancy), a ribbon loli, and a ton of out-of-place maids in for good measure, with anti-tank rifles no less. I didn't particularly like the episode, and while I won't be hasty to drop a mecha anime by Sunrise, I'm hoping for some improvement, soon. Plus, you can hardly call what the main character is using a mecha. It isn't even a power suit. I don't tolerate me no lame Power Ranger shows! So, hoping on a mecha to show up as well, and not that cannon fodder Sebastian used. |
| .....I'm hoping that something gets explained in Episode 2 o.O |
 |
| Lolanime i lol, at least there are maids everywhar. But Nakajima Megumi so "I don't dissaprove of this". Also, OP. That was FictionJunction? |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| This was...surprisingly entertaining. |
| At first I was like "What the heck is this?" And then I was all like "Meh." Watchable at the very least. I liked the fight scenes and the cheap laughs at the minibike. Something about it reminded me of Heroman too, for some reason. |
| El Psy Congroo |
| so-so, i'll watch more but it doesn't look that exceptional |

He really does! No wonder he is sexy.And the butler looks like Sebastian and Claude's love child! XDDD DrHouse said: Rebecca Black influence.TheComposer said: Best unintentional comedy of the season! LOL the maids and so many of them. That sort of killed the seriousness of the show. Loved the episode (that was an awesome fight) and if everything goes right, the show might turn out to be amazing. And it's Sunrise, so they might not screw it up. Indeed, the OP is not FictionJunction-ish. |
 |
| Hmm yes, finally a good Battle Suit action anime, haven't seen one of those in a while now. Points i liked about this show. - Great character design, even tho most think CodeGeass sucked, the artwork was superb, and looks like S7 is using it as well - First episode ended quite nicely, great conclusion - The battle suit design was awesome (i wish he could have shouted his attack XD "MAGNUM REVOLVER PUUUNCH!!" tho that would be to clique i guess) - The red berserk suit reminded me of Power Stone's Falcon. Can't wait for the next episode ^^ |
| Anyone came as many times as I did? No? Don't look at me like that... And Arma's transformations all have something to do with another franchise. His Red one looks like if Hellboy, a Mummy, and Evangelion unit 02 fused into one single, very very crazed being. And of course then he turns into a megaman with his own inventory in his eye. THis is gonna be so awesome its perfect. |
| It's mumm-ra the everrrrrliving! |
| . |
| Interesting :D Maids everywhere and and Arma has pretty good bike :D |
 |
Iilia said: So yeah, this was looking pretty interesting in the beginning until he goes to school, walks down the first hallway, and suddenly everyone falls quiet. Seriously, what? Bad rumors. Yeah. I got that. And now nobody likes this guy. It just seemed a bit lame. But of course, there's our one female student that has a big heart and wants to help this poor soul! Well, she's better than that puffy-haired Ruri, I will say. Actually, she's a lot better. A drillhair loli with big tits and zettai ryouki with Ranka-chan's voice commanding army of battle maids and buying schools...really, what's not to love, I don't get your standards ;P The genki girl annoyed me a bit in parts but seriously speaking I don't think either character warrants strong feelings at this point, for or against. So it boils down to Ruri being much more attractive at this point IMO :P |

| I really enjoyed this. A really interesting first episode. And the character designs reminds me of Code Geass. |
| That little red-haired girl really reminds me of Chocolat from Sugar Rune (including that part with the heart-shaped stone). How can I take this show seriously ? -_- . But I will try with all my power not to compare it with that one , but with Code Geass :p . |
 |
| I find it weird... it looks really cartoon-ish :S |

| it was nice .. :) tho i kind of like more his berserk form.. not the new hero like lulz xD and wtf's with all those agents piloting sniping and etc dressed like maids.. something badass would be much better /iz just too cliche/ |
~_~ ! |
| Very interesting anime i like it. But that first ep kinda felt rushed.. so much happened in 1 ep |
 |
| Perseus could beat Medusa with a sword & shield. This butler can't beat a headless statue of Perseus with a stone head of Euryale (Medusa's older sister) , using a mecha. Times have changed... PS: Euryale was immortal, but that's irrelevant. |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| I unexpectedly enjoyed it. Alma reminded me of Lelouch (Code Geass) while Kagami is to Sebastian (Kuroshitsuji). O.o The plot seems lackluster to me but the action is somewhat entertaining. Liked him better in his red mummy-like suit than his current "megaman" suit. Maids are everywhere. It really feels out of place but not complaining though. I guess I'll watch this just like Star Driver. |

Well, I'm not sure if Code Geass is a show to be taken that seriously either... :D Yumekichi11 said: I agree, I did not see her for some time. It was nice to hear her around. Probably why I got excited in the end. Well, she is one of those people who is at least as much singer as a seiyuu and she's been focusing on music more - with rest of her time getting hogged up by tons of Macross stuff going on in Japan. Case in point, she made tons of money last year and ended up in top ten best earning seiyuus of 2010...*and she did barely any voice acting last year*! Instead she released singles, her first album, toured and had first concerts abroad on her own IIRC in China and Taiwan and of course she was in Anime Expo 2010 with May'n... and then in the end of the year there was the awesome MacrossF Christmas album, cosmic cuune. If one looks at most of her minor roles they've also been closely tied to music, like Lyra in Fairy Tail or that Basquash idol singer... Now that Macross Frontier is finally over with Sayonara no Tsubasa (fantastic film, was lucky and saw it in Japan few months ago...can't wait for BD release, hopefully fansubs don't take as long as with first film) it looks like she's finally getting more focused on voice acting again. In other roles than Ranka that is, as said Macross has kept her busy these years... so unless you're Macross fan she hasn't been that visible lately as she has simply hasn't done much VA work. I was kind of worried that she might limit herself to small music-related roles as far as VA jobs go from now on but taking female lead role in Sunrise's action anime is in my eyes clear sign she's not going to "nerf" her seiyuu career which makes me happy :) Funnily enough there's other Macross seiyuu here, Mao Nome from Macross Zero is singing the ED... :D To be honest Yuki Kajiura's music, Sunrise's action production values and having Ranka and Saten in it are my main reasons for even watching this silly show. I don't think anyone should expect brilliant plot or something like that from S7 but it's surprisingly enjoyable fluff that's easy on the eye and ear :) |
| A few things came to mind with this anime, for me: - Megaman - Code Geass - Kurogane no Linebarrel - This Ugly Yet Beautiful World |
   |
| never thought i would like an anie like this.... but its got some good fighting scenes and this episode really got me hooked. heh, love the idea of all those maids!!! and LOL, buying the school, just to go to the club :p |
| First episode was way too generic. But that's how first episodes tend to be nowadays... |
| STAR DRIVER PART DUBS YUSHHHH but........that episode was retarded. did anyone else notice how he was madddd emo being like i dont want this powerrr and then the mahou shoujo just wipped some jewel beam at him and he was like fuck yea im megaman.... maid army is retarded! im only going to (try to) keep this for the following reasons: -hamtastic star driver lulz -unicorn -miyu irino as sebastian -code geass-like character design....yea thats all |

Nachtwandler_21 said: Reminded me of Star Driver much. same thoughts for me too about this anime im gonna watch it until the end considering its only 12 episodes |
| WOW Sunrise.. you really surprised me with this show :D I really like it, THIS HEAVY PACKED ACTION deliver is something new to me, its just awesome, I couldn't take my eyes off it for a second, it has such a fast packed, that you will need to watch it carefully, in my case I had to watch two times to see what I missed in the first run.. As for Male Lead Character... Guys Guys, Please don't go trolling around, we had enough watch from the silly characters and I am sure many had fed up with such male leads, so to have Angst Male Lead is something really to look forward to see, after all, the shows which have Angst Lead characters are really few, you don't see such characters that often in the recent shows. So I guess that's plus, look at it the other way, if they had have the usual cheerful brightly male character, that would make even less interesting 'cause it will typically dull. As you have seen from the report, Tandouji Aruma had such a hard childhood, his mother died when he was 10 years old, so he became orphan since then and now he is living in a shack besides the other accidents that followed up. |
 |
| - I think I like the OP and ED. - This seems interesting. - I'm not sure what Ruri's power is though. - Cool guy thumbs up though. :P |
| The first thing that popped into my head when I saw this show was: "This is going to be a combination of Code Geass, Star Driver, and Megaman." Saw the butler in a knightmare frame....which is pretty sweet in my opinion. Can't wait for more! XD |
| I'm kicking myself for not watching it earlier, but the lure of Nakajima Megumi got me (hopefully she does more work soon but she's been busy with Macross F stuff and singing more than being a VA). Anyways, this episode was awesome. |
| The animation style of the series reminds me a bit of Code Geass. Overall...meh. I wish they could give a better description of the enemy that they're fighting and what type of power does Alma have. |
 |
| Shyit! That is my shit. We got ourselves some misunderstood delinquency up in this bitch. Little overly optimistic girl reminiscent of Kafuka. Unicorn dude and combat butler. awww shit! Combat Butler's in a battlemech now! Battalion of Maids manning the battlestations under the command of a classy rich chick. BAM! POW! Action choreography and uncontrollable berserk powers! Superpowered evil side! Suddenly megaman all over this hizzouse! Not any old vanilla megaman either, we're talking badass mofo supersoldier general Megaman X hunting mavericks and taking names. And then someone absorbed the destroyed beastie to get a new power. We gonna be getting some highlander action going with out megamen? Is there potentially not enough room in this here town for two megamen? Hoowee! That's the good stuff right there. |
| First thing on my mind as I watched this was Star Driver... let's see how this does... |
| I thought it was a pretty good episode. Loved the OP!!! Loved Ruri's eyes!! Anyways seems like it'll be interesting so I'll keep watching. |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| Yeah he does look like megaman in that suit. He also reminded me of that hero kid in Ichiban no Daimaou they look very similar. Haha at the ending Ruri ends up buying the entire school.. I like the way she thinks. Cute loli if you ask me. This anime looks promising, I think I am going to like it alot. Can't wait to see more. |
