Eh, I think the show is concentrating way more on Sofina and Almaria than I had expected. Their personal conflict turned into a violent battle..

The bite though...looks like Almaria can rely more on Saya now. Sofina's reaction was amusing, like she's jealous. Seriously though, it's about time Almaria beat her.

So Almaria finally sucked someones blood and it was Saya's which isn't really surprising but nice to see anyways.
It seems the girls are getting stronger and i guess this challenge will get them promoted at the end.
But there is still way to go before they reach that end.

Aaaand dropped. And unlike another series I dropped today this one's definite. I did love all the Almaria focus this week, as she's my favorite of the girls, and that she saved Sofina. Unfortunately, she should never have had to in the first place. I love all the glorious fanservice this series offers, but its plot has, unfortunately, turned into a "possessed/corrupted/brainwashed friend of the week" version of "monster of the week," and that plot device is one of my biggest anime pet peeves. Possessed/corrupted friend I mean. Definitely wasn't needed either. I was fine with the way the first couple episodes went. They coulda very easily kept all the girls united against the enemy threat instead of supernaturally turning half of them evil needing to be rescued. The humor between the corrupted girls falls flat since, ya know, they're forcefully evil now. And it's much harder for me to enjoy the fanservice and fluff moments when I'm too anxious waiting for them to save the other girls. That's no way to enjoy something. Such a waste to drop a series with such glorious fanservice too but, that's the way it goes I guess. 5/10

Agree on the fact that this brainwash trope is quite annoying. I also can't wrap my head around why the supposedly dark side girls just wont mount an attack on all 5 worlds at once which would most likely guarantee victory. Considering that they're attacking 1 by 1 anyway.

Saya NTR'd Sofina, lol. I know how this will be going now. The MCs will travel from world to world to save to brainwashed friend of the week and the world. It's okay, I guess. Next episode will be loli angel's turn.

Also, R.I.P. military sisters, they were so stupid to live (they are probably still alive, thouh).

This is a pretty good yuri romance show, it would have been better than the confessions were before the kiss, but I'll take it.

NTR, NTR everywhere.

I love how they sexualized the theme around blood-sucking so much then do it in front of Sofina.

Well if you really think carefully for those girls that went on dark side with brainwashing only taking for they own desires, obviously they desires not to destroy world.

OMG all this with Yuri and Sofina got all jealous for her to suck Saya blood.

You're right about them doing what they feel like, but they are also evidently(In Sofinas case atleast) trying to destroy the world since that is what Sofina wanted to do with Almaria. I doubt they would attack the crystals just for yuri desires.

Originally i thought Amane is cute in some way, but Almaria is the cutest in my opinion alright. The sempais gone to the darkside might have change their personalities, what they act out can be their true inner feelings? Anyways Almaria and Sophina-sempai relationship sure is another level thou. I bet it will be more awkward after Sophina-sempai back to her ownself, because they still kept the previous darkside memories.

Angel-chan able to copy other people's skill? Funny that Elel acts out Nya's personality a bit. I think next episode should be focusing on Elel.

Every characters interaction with Amane which include how each of them meet pretty interesting. How they do the anime is not half bad also, i mean there is a few section in each episodes. At the start they tell a little bit of story about the character they focus on, then continue with the main story which also somewhat involve that character. *In between there will be 2 other army girls do training(i believe they are from the manga?cameo).

Really enjoy the show(story and interactions, not the bath scene), it might not be hilarious but it still fun enough to watch. The series is not totally a cliche consider there is really not much of "saving friends and the world" together with "darkside theme" lately(can't even compare to cliche harem), i rather classified it as 'simple love & friendship story'.

A bit sad that some member doesn't really see its worth, everyone preference is different i guess.

Lol they made blood sucking appear too sensual. Kinda disappointed since I expected Almaria's blood scythe to have lightsaber like effects.

The show is relatively better imo. I am enjoying the action and yuri. The plot is simple and makes sense unlike many shows these past seasons where viewers have no idea what it is even about (Mayoiga, Divine Gate etc).

Character development/powerup is nicely handled and the characters are engaging. I am liking it so far even tho I don't like fanservice. But the characters, action and yuri is good enough for me to like it. I know there is little action but it is decent enough.

Wtf I thought Alamaria got cut in two halfs by Sofina because it was a direct hit with such an huge weapon and everywhere was blood. Not very realistic. And even that she got so much more powerful by just sucking some blood is too very unrealistic....

This was a pretty good episode
Combat scenes were as well done as always and battle between Alma and Sofina was amusing especially when Sofina got enraged lol. Sofina's expression when Alma sucked Saya's blood was pretty amusing and was priceless.

It seems that each of the cast will have to face the sempai's that they had admired judging by the story. Looks like the next battle might be between Elel and Ramiel.

Common troupes wherein you have a frag grenade on your hand, you pull the pin, but you threw away the pin instead of the frag grenade itself.
Almaria also defeated the possessed Sofina not by rage (saya) but with the use of Saya's blood by sucking her lewdly on her neck.
4/5.

Saya offering Almaria to suck her blood was nice. And she finally did it, a yurilicious power up. Sofina's fit of jealousy was very funny.

Blushing Almaria is just too cute. :3

Sofina was jealous because Almaria sucked someone else's blood. Poor little vampire... :(

RIP Sanagi sisters?! Noo... :( Their "special training" was again pretty amusing.

Yumi Hara's voice really works well for chuuni shows, huh.

Ange Vierge showing events out of order is kind of confusing, as there's little indication as to when we're getting a flashback to prior events. It's apparent with Amane being present, as well as the atmosphere being generally brighter than the present, but it gets harder to tell when we're not on Seiran Island.

Also, seriously, characters in this show spend a lot of time bathing, especially the villains. Their skin has to be pruning at this point.
