THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
And it blasts off right away with the premise. Artwork is a bit generic and some parts of it reminds me of Familiar of Zero. Still, I think it made its point.

As I had thought, Rebbeca is popular as hell at school wow.

Mm dragon battles at school. OST isn't bad I guess and this was something I had expected. Same goes for the fan service I guess. We meet the main girl Eco at the end there.

Wow is the new season really starting off like this ?

1.Why does ever blonde bitch in anime have to be named Silvia

2. WTF why would you want to wake up from a dream like that and act like it was a nightmare? I never understood those scenarios

3. We get the typical support character with glasses ( I guess this should be expected)

4.The typical discrimination story "oh man he's a loser because he doesn't have a freaking parr"

5. The typical president character everyone loves.

I'm done listing

This anime didn't even try and I heard it had a manga the author didn't even try to come up with something slightly different.
Well you know who's dropping this junk

You guys honestly bitching about the new season already when we literally had sequels to two of the most acclaimed anime in a long while just yesterday? Find me one season of anime which didn't have a single clunker if you can.

Hmmm, weird not having the obvious main girl in the first scenes.
Well, let the waifu wars begin.

Will keep watching depending on our red headed loli tsundere level.

artwork is indeed generic and the animation is just terrible in soo many scenes. at the beginning the way they animated the flying dragons..BLEGH.

why does it feel like i am watching a fourth season of zero no tsukaima?

im half through the episode and i already see no point in continuing.

the characters are soo stereotypical..its like everyone has his/her own role that they have to fill in the class.

amon-raw did a good job pointing that out.

this season has been awesome sofar (mushishi after 8 years finally season 2 + jojo ) but this show is garbage.


i will finish the episode and probably drop it aswell.

screw this. dropped.

Stupid episode filled with cliches. Why on earth was he willing to sacrifice his life to save someone he just met who was trying to kill him? typical nice guy MC. I'll give it 3 more episodes.

Not bad. I think I'll follow this one.

It does seem like it's going towards the harem route though :P XD

I'll need to see how annoying the loli will be first before deciding.

Some dragons can fly and some dragons are like T-Rex.
One reason to keep watching this is the pink haired dragon loli of course.
I think things will get slighty better with the next episodes.

I was positively surprised.

The MC seems not the usually harem guy always overwhelmed by the female characters, but seems to be pretty active.
The artwork is good, I prefer much more this type of art and animation than the Key ones or similar.

Typical fantasy ambientation, but whatever.
Why some dragons cannot fly?
And I don't get why he would have helped that little brat, surely because she hesitated and because he wanted to know more.

This first episode was very enjoyable!

Swords, Fighting Dragons, "Plot" and tentacles? AOTS
Considering that I've read the manga already, this became one of my top picks of Spring season. Hopefully this adaptation delivers my expectations :)
Not a bad first ep though...

Seems so, 'cause I actually was also positively surprised. I can't deny that it is kinda cliché and it also remind me of Zero no Tsukaima in some ways, but I still think it was pretty decent and enjoyable. I hope it will become more interesting.

The opening was OK. The ending was wierd but still fun.

I rather enjoyed it, yes i would admit it i got the zero no tsukiama vibe as well and that it has a lot of the cliche settings but i still rather enjoy it.

The only thing that was a bit off was the animation but no to drastic will keep an eye on this one

It was fun, though there are very slight diversions from the LN, it was expected I guess, for those who say it's too generic, I'll say this It's true that, there are many generic things but there will be many unique things in the series as well

The LN series have pretty well character development, so altough the characters start as generic and classic like Amon- Raw pointed out, they will develop well, if the series remain true to the original work.

The show has good art and the setting is interesting.

However, the most important part is how the characters interact with each other. We didn't see that too much this episode, mainly because the female lead was introduced at the end, but I hope the characters have chemistry with each other.

It was a fun episode and I am looking forward to next week. My takeaway from this episode is that the character designs are awesome but I would have liked to see a little more comedy and maybe more interesting battle mechanics, although I realize that it is only the first episode.

Looks like the little blond girl he saved as a boy was the princess? Wonder what happened there?

Man, I'd feel sooo unhappy if it's like, here's your dragon: a girl. D: She can't fly... No fangs and claws. Bah. I hope she does something cool. I can tell she's a bitchy tsundere just from the opening...

Why does the dragon have to be a girl? Really, that's the only thing I have against this at the moment. Why a girl? Why couldn't it be an incredibly sexy looking dragon so we could have a bestiality harem instead? I just hope she can transform into a dragon, though I'm not too sure about that.

Like every anime, I'm going to give it 3 episodes before I decide to watch or drop. From the first episode though, it doesn't look real promising.

Seems like your typical ecchi series although the big-boob lady aside, they keep it quite toned down. No senseless boob jiggling, accidental trips, naughty winds, or forced ecchi scene (I love ecchi but only good ecchi). The story and setting was so-so. I don't like the dragon's design and the characters are as generic as can be. That being said the back story did intrigue me. I'll try to watch 3 episodes at least.

As I expected - a dead ringer compared to The Familiar of Zero and several similarities to Unbreakable Machine-Doll as well. I really liked both of them so this one won't be too bad at worst and really enjoyable at best.

Lol I totally agree with you, this is actually a really good season and has some really good stuff in it.
There are obviously going to be anime's like this every season, Some people just need to suck it up and deal with it.

But either way, this is getting dropped :p

Magical spirit restores the MC's left arm.. Nice tattoo inscription though. XD

Good opening song.

That dream was quite funny! A good amount of fanservicing wasn't so bad.

So, Ash has the ability to ride others' parr.. A good advantage, I'd say. Though, it could be problematic late on.

Dragon training battles at school. Ash is pretty adept at it.

Race begins.
Ash is being helpful to Silvia.. She's a potential tsundere. XD

Facing a death event calls for a dragon Navi loli!

Ending song is okay.

Now, would this become a harem? A possibility since a loli and tsunderes are involved.

Lets look forward to it.

Predictable, unoriginal and I already hate the character design. Ok so we have our MC who has misterious powers and wow he gets a dragon loli with pink hair, next episode he's going to win the race and win the blonde girl's heart. If he won't win the race he's still gonna win her heart btw. Will keep watching for the moment but I have low expectations now.
