For purposes of comparison, and also to encourage people from not dropping this show (lol what a fanboy I am), I would like to compare this series to another harem anime that I had watched, which was "Juuou Mujin no Fafnir".

Compared to JMF, this Kuusen series has a much more capable and likeable MC (which is a breath of fresh air since most Harem animes has lame MCs like Ichika cough cough), has more funny scenes (for me, the first episode of JMF was boring and the characters almost had no life in their expressions, as opposed to the good expressions and acting of chars in episodes 1-3 of Kuusen), and is actually a new genre in Japanese anime, which we call " Heroine Raising/Training”. Kinda like Saenai Kanojo? (Though I've never seen it) . Which means the hero raising, teaching or training the heroines to become better persons compared to their former selves.

So this is actually a genre that includes both "Harem", and "Heroine Raising/Training" as its tags lol. Some people might not like Misora or Rico, but character development should not be underestimated lol, and they might change after some scenes. At least this anime, is much better than first 3 episodes of Juuou Mujin no Fafnir, IMHO.
I am someone that would like to watch a Harem Anime with 2 male leads that each gets their own harem company of girls from the main cast. For example, 1st male lead gets a company of 4 girls and 2nd male lead gets 2-3 girls etc.

Ice Cream man was the only good moment in this episode. I'm really finding this show somewhat boring but I will not drop it. It's not the worst but I just couldn't care for any of the girls at the moment (Only that flying one who snuck into the room is cool and I say go for that lol)

Also, are we now going to have some lame love drama between Main MC and Yuri and that dude in glasses..Like I mean for real?? (Someone pm me and spoil that for me if possible please)

Three episodes in and I'm still grasping at straws when describing what I feel about this show. It's not horrible by any means, the animation is pretty smooth and the character designs are likeable, but that's pretty much it.... If the bulk of the story were preparing for an invasion by bugs, or some sort of political internal conflict, I'd be at least interested. But thus far all we've seen is SoL scene after SoL scene. It's like I'm watching Chrome Shell Regios, without any of the fighting or conflict at all. So what exactly is the point of it all? The journey of three girls with flaws to become better versions of themselves by performing menial self-improvement tasks? Sounds like I'm playing a SIMs game here...

So far this series has relied on silly scenes piled on top of one another. The only character I can like out of the 3 is Lecty, and that's only because she isn't an idiot like the other two. Kanata is a character somewhat worth exploring, but so far not a lot of attention has been devoted to him.

My bet is that Kanata probably gained some insane ability in the fight against the armored insects and that the reason he's refrained from fighting is that he's overpowered relative to everyone else. This is somewhat alluded to in the OP, as we see a few brief seconds of him looking like he's in berserk mode.

Some good scenes, but I thought many things were thrown in this episode to be more take advantage forward, I hope that big problems appear soon, and want to see some battles too, but I like the personality of the girls and I almost cried together when I saw the seller crying for ice cream, that sad scene ..

4. Misora gets mad at Kanata for asking her to change classes from Magic Cannon Sword to Magic Cannon. We might get to see the reason next episode.

It is because Misora admired Kanata, which is why she chose that weapon same as Kanata's.
Which is also why Misora said something like, "I was mistaken, I though you'd understand" sort of line.

DROPPED after maid scene..

(I don't hate that part, but i expected some cool fight in this anime, and i was wrong)

Me too, I hope it'd be like Mahouka, 3rd episode showing the OP-ness of male MC, but I'm not going to drop this just yet until I see any OP moment of Male MC.

In this episode, the glasses guys was commenting while looking at his PDA that, "Archernar class are the most numerous class of Beetles". The anime is hinting to us that there could be other classes of Beetles that would be stronger, bigger and more intelligent? I could imagine a big one being the Last Boss of this series?

Anyway, the bugs in this show reminds me of Starship Troopers, in which it's also an academy setting (albeit a military academy setting set in a sci-fi world instead of a magical fantasy setting) and that is mostly based on military tech with the foot soldiers being your ordinary peeps with no magical/special powers whatsoever.

In Kuusen Madoushi, the sky combat wizards needs to have a weapon to use that can concentrate and channel their magical powers for effective use, just like in other fantasy stories and RPGs, to state an example, a wizard in an RPG needs a staff to wield to be able to use magic, also another example would be in Harry Potter, where they need to wield a wand in order to be able to channel and use magic and spells. So, wizards without their weapons won't be able to fight effectively, although in Kuusen, they would still be able to fly on their own.

Compared to Seirei Tsukai's main heroine, Claire Rouge, who's a violent tsundere, and Juuou Mujin's main heroine, Iris Freyja, who's just a dumb and clumsy girl, at least Misora in Kuusen is not as annoying as those two heroines from those 2 other harem animes. Misora is...tolerable.

However, I like Lecty the most, followed by Rico, because she has a cool and calm personality, besides it's not often that we get to see narcissistic heroines in anime, isn't that right, guys?

Anyway, I can't wait to see the hero and heroines opening up a can of whoop @$$ on the Bugs. This series, reminds me of a series that combines elements from these shows : Harry Potter+Magic Sensei Negima+Starship Troopers+Chrome Shelled Regios+Final Fantasy VII (Magic Academy setting, Hero becoming an instructor to his harem fireteam (Kinda like Magic Sensei Negima except that Negima's class has tons more gals, Fighting off huge numbers of bugs with magic, and FF-like equipment (magical swords, magical gunblades, and magic guns kinds of remind me like the Materia-powered weapons in FFVII.)

Heh, maid outfit...

It feels like the show is trying every cliche from the book:


Another meh episode. This show's structure seems to have a lot of slice of life themes to it. Is it also just me but Rico can turn her personality 180 degrees when she can? She also seems to like stuffed sheeps. Weird..

Almost nothing is happening so far. Hope the pacing picks up.


I totally agree with you. It is cliche, with a slice of life. I can see potential in this anime, but most likely it will only be sub-par.

Ice Cream man :D 10/10

Man, this show is really getting on my nerves sometimes. I don't know about the LN but I think they executed it poorly.

Did they think the viewers are dumb or are the other teachers just that terrible at their job? And really? That perverted teacher is the best they got? He's "accidentally" touching their "oppai" at every chances he gets.

Wow, Misora, you're a terrible friend for not even having the slightest hint of Lecty's problem

Misora blaming Kanata for her problems that she never even mentioned or showed. Just because he solved an OBVIOUS problem doesn't mean he's suddenly a mind reader.

Damn, Kanata's training has its benefits. Although we'll see what's wrong with Misora soon enough.
Meanwhile, Yuri's busy touching guys and Ice Cream Man crying scene is possibly the best scene ever.

Whoa this episode went downhill really fast for me. This is why I have problems with series like this, especially on the development part. People just happen to get rid of their personality flaw overnight. I might be hasty when I said that, Lecty development was handled poorly imo.

The show also got quite dramatic by the end of this episode, good lord I really dislike those moments.. mainly because I feel that it wasn't executed well, and just sort of came out of nowhere. No hints of red hair girl liking the sword, the scene also transitioned right into the the dramatic part after main protagonist revealed his plan for red hair's development that night.

The best part is of course the ice dream dude, and the mc's blonde friend who helped Lecty at the cafe.

Cliche things are cliche, but they are entertaining as long as you get amused reaction from the characters. MC not giving a fuck makes it so out of place. That Ice Cream man shedding tears, it made me chuckle but sad at the same time. The guy makes it for the living and seeing his money's worth ruined, of course he wouldn't like it.

Interesting way of them dealing with their weaknesses. I must admit that it had some sense.
