| next level chunnibyou lul |
| Well then. I have no bloody idea what the hell just happened. This Nazi general dude who's basically a mish-mash of Hisoka, Dio Brando, Hyoubu Kyousuke and Light Yagami meets a mage who can see into the future and starts punching women because he has latent violent, psychopathic tendencies?? That's what I got from it anyway. Gotta love the cheesy, out of place music and the bizarre Shakespearean-esque dialogue. The way everyone talks reminds me of the early parts of JoJo lmao I mean, it's got my attention but just because I want to know what the heck the next episode is gonna be about. This was technically episode 0, so I guess it's like a prologue episode or something? Not the best introduction for people like myself who haven't played the VN. |

| What the fuck was this chaotic crap. |
| Well, that was terrible. I'll give episode one a go since this is just a prequel, but it looks like this series won't be any good. |
| Well, that was even worse than expected. Some German names are alright , some are quite ridiculous as expected. |
| You're a louse, Roger Smith. - R. Dorothy Wayneright This is my fight! No Senpai, this is our fight! - Kojou Akatsuki & Yukina Himeragi  |
| Extremely confusing. Too many characters in one episode, the animation is not very good, but the soundtrack was ok |
 |
| What a mess that was, confusing and it made no sense. Add in some very clunky animation and its just sank any in interest I have in this series. It does not bode well for the main story. For all those who loved this episode, what exactly did you love? I feel I'm missing something here. |
| Honestly If.... This has the same studio as Rewrite... like how they adapted in S1? Quite frustrated and So Off-putting.. Well the OST is pretty good actually probably they'll gonna save a bigger budget in the final fight --S I E G H E I L-- |

| Hm, from the first minute I got the feeling this will spoil the rest of the show... I'm gonna skip it. |
| I don't know anything about the story so this episode was very confusing. Hope the main series will be more clear and give a proper introduction. Visually it wasn't so good, fighting scenes looked so cringe. I can't say I enjoyed it. 4/10 |

It does not bode well for the main story. For all those who loved this episode, what exactly did you love? I feel I'm missing something here. This is a side-story that you supposedly read when you have already read half of the novel. Most people who enjoyed probably have read the VN and know what's going on. So if it was confusing and a mess it's because this is not the best way to start the series if you don't know about it already. The project was funded by fans though, so it's not a surprise that episode 0 is better for fans, and new viewers should skip it until a later date. Snaita said: Hm, from the first minute I got the feeling this will spoil the rest of the show... I'm gonna skip it. And you, sir, are right. Please skip it until you get to know a bit the characters. :) I'll leave a proper explanation for those who are curious, trying to avoid as much spoilers as possible. Read at your own risk. About what's going on. About "the guy who sees the future". |

| Dies Irae deserves better than this |
| While I'm interested, I'm not entirely sure as to what was going on. lol I think (?) I got the gist of it, though. Some (if not many) animation scenes looked pretty sub-par to say the least, and the characters so far are meh. I liked the music though (and there was one song I was familiar with, but I forgot the name. It was when long-haired blondie reawakened. Overall it was eh. I was wondering why this was labeled as episode 0 until I figured out that this was an OVA, so this makes the gripes I have towards this not really that surprising anymore. Maybe it'll be better when the actual TV series is aired. |

| Nice! Easy first drop of the season. Being a VN reader must be like living in a garbage dump. Sure, every once in a while you manage to fish some (relatively) intact, decent-tasting food out of the pile, but in the end, you're still eating garbage. |

Honestly never knew that, but no wonder it felt like I've heard of this before as soon as this announced. Welp, now I just learned something important to me. If the first episode isn't any better to me, then I'll just drop it and read the VN since I really am interested in this. |
|
| I usually can't watch 'western history' anime but thought maybe I could watch this. Yeah, well, no. Good they did a Episode 0 before the first episode, I don't need to add another anime to my dropped list |
| If I didn't play the VN, I'm sure I would've been lost right now. Minus the awesome soundtrack, this is a pretty pathetic adaptation... |
 |
| NGL this was actually terrible. Why is this set in the 3rd Reich again? 3 Valkyries??? Yeah because women definitely were the leading war forces under the Nazi Regime. This could be set in a fantasy parallel world, it could be an isekai, the setting is just there to appease a young, edgy, inexperienced audience. Another OP main character and dumb powers ResidentSleeper, wake me when there is a good VN adaptation of a VN that is actually worth adapting. Who wrote this? A 13 year old? |

| I didn't understand anything at all! |
 |
| Well, Lord Destruction!!! Bllood!! SUper-powers!!! and all arround the Nazi age!!! |
| This was a good. 10/10 |
  |
| Isn't this some high quality VN or something? This was terrible. Putting the production values aside(knowing this was crowd-funded), that was the very least of its problems. What a confusing mess. Music was good, at least. |
| So what, everyone with superpowers gets to board the flying Nazi castle to be teleported to another dimension? God that sounded stupid as I typed that out. |
| I didn't play the VN so this episode seemed all over the place for me. The animation was meh and none of the characters really impressed me. I just realized this was like a prequel or something which gives me hope that maybe the continuation would be a bit better. |
| Not to shabby. Nice action. Nice music. Now, I am concerned though. This episode0 followed the "bad guy". I hope the series continues to do so. If the main series follows the "hero", it could be boring unless they keep up the action. I would prefer if we follow the bad guy and watch him destroy everything. |
  |
| damn the ost was good |
 |
| If only I knew this episode was horrible, I would've re-watched mars of destruction |
| well, i'm grandly confused on what's happening on this 00 episode... 3/5. |
 |
| I assume anyone who's played the VN would get this, but honestly I was completely lost as to what was going on :/ Hopefully it'll make sense later on, because the premise is still kind of interesting. |
tfw Weilhem stole Spinne's posture. Ok move on to the episode. Expect it to be at least decent by OH MY MERCURY!!! what the fuck is this. https://twitter.com/diesirae_anime/status/914781267517857792 The fight choreography is just.. wait, is there even a choreography in the first place? The animation is choppy as fuck, even with the low expectation after seeing the PV this is still too much. How are they going to translate Masada grandiloquent writing with this shit? This whole episode is a mess. Leaving confusing aside, I don't think they have presented any aspect to be an attractive point for anime only. They try to present it as 'cool chunni' but fail to deliver. What they did deliver is only the word 'try'. Still doubt if they even try in the first place. They use the same ost as VN, I would have been happy but after this episode. I think it is a bad move. When the VN ost plays, you, magically, get hyped feeling through Masada writing. But none of that feeling exists in this prologue. While Masada is still a scriptwriter. This is anime. The director plays an important role and he failed to deliver it, the feeling. The ending Card the only good thing in this episode. I hope we get more improvement on the actual TV series. But even if it all fuck up, as long as I can listen to Mercury's voice that is enough. |
| Lol dafuq was that. Confusing the episode was. Especially towards the ending. |
 |
| This was bad to say the least... will give episode 1 a chance though. |
| Pretty bad, incoherent, the scenes swap too quickly with little relevance on each other. Dialogue makes no sense, trying to be deep but at its core means nothing and explains nothing. OST was mediocre. Everything sort of came together at the end though barely due to how many unnecessary exposition of "love and destruction" and boring man. The German general feels so cheesy typical cool guy that is bored with everything wearing his coat like a cape. What kind of general show such lack of discipline. We don't even know what his motivation is. Just overhyped series because OP characters. This is what happens when Himmler gets what he wanted and Hitler is now rolling in his grave about now. And why the hell was the Schwerer Gustav charging some fire ball? Why was the Katyusha rocket artillery having cannon sounds? And having a soviet division sucked of their life force... how is that going to work in the history books? |
 |
| What the fuck did I just watch?! I have no idea what's going on or what even happened. He said he loves everything, but just pimp punched his faithful bodyguards and killed two people. A hot mess!! |
 |
 So yea... what did I just watch? I guess the hype train just died here like Black Clover did too. |
