Meh, more bath fan service. (with censorship)

The action felt like it was all over the place. Almaria is the coolest girl out of the cast so far imo.

I don't think the bath scene can be really called a fan service, its too short and unintentional(pretty much just short bathing and talking) as the bath scene is just part of the facility settings. So you can't say "more" when they are not showing anything more(the same as episode 1) than just a simple bath scene with no boob-grabbing or specific camera angle.

Anyways I'm kinda shocked at the story suddenly turn around to a serious route, no fatality yet thou. That ost at the end where Amane frozen in crystal:(

It was obvious something would happen when the best groups went off to fight the question is how are they going to solve this issue,
Things will be harder from now on it seems.
But i guess it's a lesson needed for Saya.

Absurdly dark plot twist near the end there, girls got wrecked! XD Can they save Amane from the crystal?

Saya was quite the whiny brat too, didn't understand anything.

Saya still annoying me to no end. At least she finally found out that Amane's not as carefree as she seems. I also love how most the girls keep blaming her even though they fight recklessly lol

Went a bit dark towards the end.

So another bath scene with the censorship, that's cool (not really). I hope that's the last bath scene we have to deal with in this series for awhile because I was beginning to wonder if yuri, ecchi, and possibly harem would be tags that should be on this show. Anyways, the actual conflict of the story escalated quickly so now my interest has been piqued to see where this goes.

Also, evil tentacle monsters and an all female cast? Rule 34 is going to have a field day.
Don't believe the hype.

So the first thing I did after downloading this was checking to make sure they don't spend 99% of the ep in the goddamn bath.
After making sure that they don't, I watched it, and I think it was okay. Better than the first, definitely.

Well, with this episode, I got the hang of what is going on (I still have no idea how they're going to save the world, but they have time-using scientists and girls with special powers, so they seem to be up to the task). But the plot isn't going to stop with just that, so it might be quite fun.

No this is actually one of the worst shows I've ever seen. And how do they not apply to the show? Its just a collection of every harem girl archetype which are naked as much as possible and the MC is an unlikable twat whos only definable feature is her stupid early naruto mentality. Nothing real has been established at all other than cute naked girls sometimes fight generic boring looking monsters to save the world. There is literally nothing solid here at all. And the anime has to constantly remind us of Saya's past and show us flashbacks of the episode prior because how else would we understand and relate with our whiny boring protagonist. Please don't refer to this show as requiring intelligence to enjoy either because it's clearly banking on the demographic of mindless fan service drones to actually enjoy this.

A good show doesn't waste most of its time with fan service moe bs for 40 minutes. An amazing show establishes a setting and some solid outline of the story that interests the viewer no matter how little we understand yet within a few minutes. Two garbage episodes which don't try to do anything until the very end with boring characters who aren't anything special other than naked cute anime girls isn't just me being impatient. It's the mark of a shitty show.

Holy crap, this show just got serious fast. I was expecting just another silly character jumble fighting and easily kicking attacking monster thing but anime, but if it's going to continue on like this, as in, the alpha-linkers stay trapped the whole series then this'll be amazing.

All the haters are twits. Anyone bitching about using nudity as a crutch or that characters seemed plain... DID YOU SEE HOW MANY CHARACTERS THERE WERE!? GIVE IT TIME LOL

Many things were established already, the bath scenes were not a ham-fist, they were just an eye-candy method for exposition and character introductions, as we had a hell of a lot to get through. Obviously the main girls are Saya and Amane, supported by the rest of her team. Pretty much everyone on their team has found rivals, and we learned of our enemy... Characters have shown their strengths, weaknesses, aspirations, and we already have emotional fights and regrets formed. That's a pretty hearty introduction.

If you're gonna bitch about first glance and surface stuff without even reading between the lines for the absolute basics then go somewhere else lol. Sure the show has a bit of a corny and klutzy presentation, and jumps around a bit, but attacking the content for it's presentation is ad hominem definitionally.

Great episode. That was a good plot twist. The base got destroyed and all the alpha drivers got crystallized. With how easily they massacred the Ouros, I thought it's just going to be an easy ride. So glad that the Ouros are not just some masochistic mindless bunch. I don't like how the rest of the battle was cut off, though. I get that they want to show that cliffhanger ending but it'll be nice to see how the girls fight without their alpha drivers. Oh well, look forward to the next episode.

1) Do you consider the lightsaber girl, or the alpha-driver girl to be the MC? Because neither of them has "early naruto mentality".
2) The girls aren't a collection of harem stereotypes. I know that, because I actually watch harems.
3) There are no male characters, which is likely to deliver interesting dynamics. It might even end up as a rare yuri harem.
4) By episode 2, the setting has solidified enough for me. And it looks like it's going to be a plot-driven anime, not a character-driven one, in spite of so many characters.
Well, actually, few characters - we only have the main team, their sempais, and the research team.
5) Well, I don't have any idea why you find the lightsaber girl boring. I think anime characters who want to be special for the sake of being special are unusual. And the one that I remember (the "best in the universe!" girl from Lost Universe) was fun.
6) From my perspective, most shows don't require much intelligence. Because I'm so smart. The ones that do are the ones who have complicated settings and conflicts (recently, I've watched Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo, that one was fast and complicated).
If you want an intellectual challenge, go watch detectives and mysteries (I recommend Rokka no Yuusha). This show has nothing to do with that.

I didn't realize the Ouroboros were supposed to be intelligent. A nice well planned & executed strategy, to feint & hit at the source of their power. It's a bit silly though how the drivers are conveniently frozen in crystal rather than outright killed. And also, the enemy didn't press the advantage & finish off whatever was left on the island... it's kept my interest for another episode at least.

People says japanese use bath or drink sake to deepened their relationship. So maybe this bath scene will be regularry appear after or before fight, so for those who irritated with too much bath scene need to back off, start now.
But consider this, if in the future fight take 3 or more episodes, you can expect less bath scene. In two episodes so far, enemies seemed not that intellegent. But considering how enemies attacking their base successfully, we know this is the starting point for the true plot. This ouroboros who capable linking 5 worlds is no joke indeed (their form is a joke tho, (d*ck, tentacles, oh my goddes.).

Honestly can't understand what the fuss is about with cute anime girls taking baths. Reading the description of the anime alone foreshadows a lot of fanservice. Whenever the main and supporting casts are all magical fighting girls, there's bound to be some fan service and yuri baiting in the mix. I wouldn't be surprised if a few filler episodes popped up.

Saya is annoying as hell and doesn't deserve to be compared to Naruto. Naruto wanted to be the best and trained to do so without blaming his team and mentors. He actually had a GOAL: To become the 7th Hokage and become a sombody. Saya just wants to be special and thinks gaining a high ranking will make her special. She seems to mope around scolding Aname for not training when so far we've witnessed that Aname is the one killing herself to become stronger instead of Saya.... SO FAR


I am digging the story for now. It's not hard to understand : five worlds about to be destroyed, each are full of gifted girls, gifted girls set their base on Earth, each from the five worlds form a team, they destroy dick robot monsters that have something to do with the end of the worlds. It's only the 2nd episode and I'm even grateful to understand that much despite there is a LOT more that needs to be explained and explored. Like what the dick robot monsters have to do with the world ending. How did the portal open to connect all worlds, blah blah blah.

The characters are generic but I am not holding that against the anime for now. They seem boring and 2D now but we might get some character development later and some background stories. ATM Saya has had a few flashbacks. Again, she's annoying but NO ONE can deny wanting to be unique/special/popular at some point or another. It's a sefilsh desire that's common to have *shrug* so it's nice to see that explored despite how unpleasant and annoying it is.

I love the character designs though! So far, I ain't complaining much. I only hope they don't do the "we're super close friends despite acting hot and lovey dovey towards each other" thing between Saya and Aname. THAT would be too predictable and boring... For once let'em be real about it further on and let the relationship grow properly as it should. I also hope to discover more about the worlds and such, but I'll have to research the card game to do that? Not sure.

A pretty good show actually. but unfortunately i said that just for one reason and it's the ending. how the way they ended this episode made me suprised a little bit. so i kinda want to see more/ want to see what will happen to her.

and damn, Selfishness level over 9000+ lol xD that blue hair girl is way too selfish. why not become a normal person intead geez. btw, i'm a sucker for glasses girl lol.

and imo, i think this show has a really big potential to become a good anime to me just if they changed the whole concept of the story and it's sci-fi. i mean, it's way...too over. the sci-fi. quantum bla bla bla. seriously, they need to chill a bit. imo, the story is so messed up, but that's just my opinion. other than that, everything looks good imo. and, just if they changed the charater and the development a bit, i think it would be great. but it already happened so yeah...

either way, i'm still gonna continue watching this series cause that ending got my attention xD but even if the ending didn't get my attention, i still gonna watch it cause of the character design and animation xD so basically, silver link, this time, they sucks at making/executing the story and character development for this anime. well, it's not like i hate it tho...

At least it's better than the first episode, I guess. The ending was good. And the bathing scenes were kept to a bare(gotta wait for the BDs to see the girls bare all, apparently) minimum. Those scenes are mostly pointless because of the censoring.

I dropped this show at the first episode. I like my fan service with some semi-interesting characters at a minimum. I checked out the second episode out of curiousity, because you know the first episode was a 15-minute bathing scene, so I wondered what else this show had to offer.
I guess it has nothing to offer except more bath scenes, and a bit of mediocre action...
