| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pfft Ayato fled from that room fast, why am I not even surprised? This episode felt like a "date" with Ayato and Julis. She looked kinda funny dressed with that umbrella:  Face palmed a lot of this episode because of the misrepresenting intentions coming from Julis. Oh boy, that cliffhanger. |
 |
| Come on now Ayato, why did you have to fucking run away lol....Best girl Claudia was looking all nice and wanted the D even TwT I hope the day comes where we will get an anime of this nature where our MC will actually take offers like this xD Either way the date with Julis was pretty cute and I'm liking her more and more with each episode However, Julis in this episode has wholeheartedly earned my complete and utter respect...What she wants to do is nothing short of admirable and seeing her be so selfless and thoughtful of others makes me really happy Can't wait to see how shit goes down next week though...Good episode overall but not as good as the first two imo |

| Ayato should just let claudia have her way .. .. |
 |
| theres no way people can say this shows bad now theres so much depth to this with juliss motivations and the inclusion of politics in her country too. please let ayato and julis marry each other dear god make it happen |
| Damn, best episode IMO. I love Julis more and more. Things got interesting, and dat OST. I'm excited to know all the people in the OP and #Hype episode 4 |
| Bit of a slower episode, recycled Claudia fanservice aside. Gotta love WacDonalds. :D Julis is fighting for an orphanage eh? Well at least she has a noble cause, next week's confrontation should be good hopefully. |

| Finally getting some depth to this now, and that makes things much more interesting. It's still so obvious though that Lester is one of the mystery assailants, so the show trying to play their identities as mysteries is really getting dull. Interesting to see where things go from here though. |
| JULISSSSS Ayato declaring his love, where the hell did that come from |

terrance207 said: Best episode imo OST was too good In the comments of the youtube video (Gakusen Toshi Asterisk ED) The guy who wrote the OST and the ED commented on the video. Tell it to him xD |
| Well not as much generic crap as the first two episodes were at least, though there's certainly still a lot to be desired The chances of this actually turning into a good anime before the end are probably rather slim still though |
  |
| Ayato jumping off the building at the end was kinda funny. Like we've been seeing him bounding up buildings and all but can you really just land safely from such a height? I'm not too sure about the details behind Genestellas but are all of them able to do the same? About how Julis couldn't use the country's money to save the orphanage even as a princess... it just felt so much like what would happen in reality as well. Sad. Also I don't know if it's just me or... I felt like Julis' face and hair kind of changed compared to previous episodes. |
 |
| "Sorry, I left my penis somewhere so touching breasts scares me". That's some high quality MC. And that sure was some quick imprinting. One afternoon and he already decided his life purpose is to protect some girl. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |

Actually when a genestia run in top speed they surpass a car speed easily, so yes they can jump a building like nothing The royality are just puppets, they not have political power and have allowed money to personal daily necessities |
| Good episode. |
| Blacker than a moonless night, hotter and more bitter than hell itself... that is coffee. My anime list My manga list |
| Great episode. Loving Julis so far, and liking Ayato so far too, and obviously Claudia too. OST is good stuff. Looking forward to the next episode! |
  |
| Ayato finally finds out what he's suppsed to do. Time for Ayato shows his power. Can't wait for next EP. |

| Claudia is definitely the best girl lmao. If I were him I would have stayed D; We now understand why julis keeps that handkerchief and what her goal is. Hopefully we get some action next episode! I wanna see the mc go all bad ass with his sisters weapon. |

Julis sees to have good motivations for joining the academy. I wonder if those guys targeting her are somehow connected to the orphanage.  As if any normal horny teenage boy is gonna run away from Claudia's offer. ◔_◔  |

Oh wait, there one: School Days :D but seriously you are right, there no way than someone will runs away U.U |
| Hmm...Julis suddenly becomes more attractive and cooler now in this episode. Really nice. I like her much more than before As expected, Claudia takes the role of bitchy girl, it's a staple for harem anime. This episode is good overall, but no Sasamiya!? She is one of the reasons I like this anime. |

| Storywise, it is getting better. I will give it a 4/5. OP and ED songs are also very pleasant to hear. I don't feel the need to skip it. |
| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA OR LIGHT NOVEL BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mod Note: Probably time for a reminder to keep from spoiling this for anime only viewers (like me). There are certain opportunities in life that you pass up and then years later you wake late at night, slap yourself on the forehead and say: "Why did I do that? I'm such a moron!" Ayato, that will be you when you think back on what Claudia offered you... But aside from the usual herbivore male MC behaviour, this was an ok episode. We got a little more background on Julis (albeit pretty generic) as well as some hints at the power structure in the world. Biggest question in my mind though is who is our best girl, Claudia, working for? It's pretty obvious that those aren't just the actions of a stuco prez, no matter how jumped up the role of the academy is in this world. |

Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Nice Julis characterization |
 |
| Claudia is best gurl. |
My Queens  |
| At least we got some story in this week but that boob grab tho...10/10 if only he didn't run away |
| The episode definitely went at a slower pace this time, but still great character development of Julis this episode, really liked how she had a noble cause to why she is doing what she is doing instead of the usual spoiled tsundere princess. Also come on Ayato, how can you say no to Claudia in that situation! Here is my full review on the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh3DtGrrG1k |
| When will people learn that fluster male chars are "kawaii", and in the akiba culture, kawaii dominates over "kakkoii" (cool and/or badass). He appeals to female watchers, and the inner cuteness of some male watchers (it's much more relatable character in japan). It's sorta like the male equivalent of having a moe female lead. Stop griping because you think it's unmanly, or that he should have let mrs.slut sex him up in favour of your own fantasies. Also, in japan, modesty is a virtue; frankly, i much admire this in contrast to immature non-restraint behaviour. Anyways, i could tell from the get-go that Julis would be a nice deep character with a lot of stuff going on. Good depiction of a multifaceted character since the beginning. In no way a damsel, very strong character, befitting of a complicated past. Definitely a good show, give me more! I want that ED song so bad. |

| Episode that quite deepened the relationship of Julis and Ayato, showed quite sentimentality in some scenes, in addition to showing the determination of the characters too, I quite like the Julis personality, in my opinion is the best girl, I'm looking forward to the fight in next episode .. |
  |
| Finally we get to know more about Julis, wew Ayato rejecting that offer pfftt, still wondering if those hooded guys are kinda have a relation with the buff guy since they're both targeting Julis each day. Overall a nice episode, hoping for an action packed episode next week, don't fail me A-1 |
 |
| Nice backstory of Julis, but seriously no Saya on this episode...... I want more Saya |
 |
| Typical MC cowardly runs away from a girl who's clearly aiming for his D.. Sure, wonder what's next? Surprised Saya did not appear at all in this episode.. I was expecting to see her when the scene in the classroom at the end.. :/ Antanaru said: "Sorry, I left my penis somewhere so touching breasts scares me". That's some high quality MC. ] lol |
 |
| i love Claudia the troll well that was slow |
 |
| I like Julis, good characterization for her. Best episode so far, really enjoyed it. |
| Episode seemed a bit slow. But it was nice anyway. |
