seems alright i thirsty for some mecha so i'll take anything till the new gundam


though looks like some roles of main characters are gonna get mixed up also judging from how much in the future this looks having a kingdom in that era run by a 12year old is just asking for a coup to happen.


but hey this might be a story we're the people from the empire aren't bad

yeah yeah mecha & knights as usual.
It's a typical mecha anime introductory, with its typical boring "dumb knights and stupid idealistic princesses" set of characters and mecha fights animation (albeit 3dcg here, for better or worse.)
But the grand reveal at the end of the episode, plus the part told by the OP that this anime isn't just about Yuki & Joshua's relationship, means that the best of this anime (if there's any) is yet to come.

So bring it on.

A very cliched and boring beginning. The first-of-the-season candidate for a drop for me.

Idk, dont think much of this first episode, however i am getting this slight feeling from the characters that there is going to be some kind of power struggle, and if there is i definitely want to be there to watch it... POWER STRUGGLE ANIME FTW!
So ya im gonna keep watching for now.

Crap. Didn't plan on watching this but I wanted to try a few episodes #1 of this season of stuff I didn't plan to watch. (Maybe some stuff could surprise me.)

The princess is annoying. Also too much moe char design/behavior. And I don't like the fantasy/sci-fi world. Looks not interesting enough from the designs to me. (That meeting room looked really boring ... sterile.

Maybe there will be some plot later. with the war. But which such annoying chars and the setting not interesting enough ... dropped early and I give a (for me rare) 4/10.

That was really awful. We didn't need two angles of the princess turning around nor did we need three POVS for her tumbling, poor direction overall and already says a lot from where this is heading. Characters are underwhelming, let's see where this goes. I wanted to give this a shot because it's made by Tatsunoko, which I think is a good studio. Sad it didn't deliver

Decent enough, nothing all too interesting going on yet it seems they are saving the actual plot for the next episode. Princess is very cute. The action in the mecha seems was pretty good, nothing amazing but serviceable. Other than the one scene where the two guys were mostly just dumping exposition about the world in a way that felt completely forced was pretty bad. I'll watch the next episode to see how this goes, seems average as of now though.

Same, really! So far it looks like it's going to be a slice of life about court life, but eh, we still need to see the 2nd girl.

The next episode sequence is hype.

It seems like it's trying to appeal to a shojo audience with a clueless princess. I don't like melo, but I'll wait till episode 4.

I'm okay with this, it was fun if only a little generic. There are a lot of different ways they can handle a story like this, so let's hope they don't go for the most generic options available. :^)

A good start with good animation, character design and art style tho a little dull and not very interesting.

A 5/10 for me and I'll probably drop it after episode 3 cuz this is clearly not a show I would enjoy but it is good enough as a time killer

Tagging isn't reliable for anime original shows during first episodes.

I wasn't expecting much out of this show when I started watching it, but the setting was interesting right away and then we had a pretty cool mech fight. But the point that really surprised me was the last few seconds. Suddenly, it put the rest of the episode in a new light and now I'm excited to see where this show goes.
Blergh.

Ok, that was a decent enough start. Mecha action with a little osananajimi romance plot. 3 episode rule.

6/10 for first episode.

Dont know what's happening with the country & politics etc, everything are introduced without context & you expect us to understand? wtf
on the plus side, the orchestra-ish soundtrack is very enjoyable reminding me of soredemo sekai wa utsukushii - will definitely download the album once it's out.
and love princess loli's char design, she easily made the top of my fav loli princesses along with urnea belfast, though i'm not sure if i can survive 6 eps of messy storytelling

man i keep coming across anime with yoshitsugu matsuoka in it, whether intentional or not. so weird. yuuki's design reminds me of hestia a little bit too.
the story telling of this anime is wack though, i dont get a bit what's happening other than big robot fighting.

It's not too bad I suppose. I'll probably save this to watch after the season is over. But going by the way the credits went, could there possibly be yuri that brings these two countries together? I kid. It's worth the 6 rating currently.


And then both countries would disappear in the chaos of anarchy and the struggle for power, because lesbians have no children and heirs. And if no joke, then what should the ED say about yuri? Girls can not even stand together, so as not to arouse suspicion in yuri?

That was okay for a first episode.

Yuni was lucky. Under different circumstances, this would have been considered high treason and punished accordingly.

That they lied about the negotiation and war already broke out was quite obvious.

A 12 years old girl ruling a kingdom, what could go wrong?

And also, her character design reminds me so much of Nico from Love Live it's almost laughable I mean, even her attire screams idol at full force xD

Anyways, that aside, it was an interesting first episode. The combat sequences were really entertaining to watch but pointless at the same time since Yuuki helping Joshua nullifies his point of wanting to defend his princess's honor as her knight but well. The mechas looked nice and the CGI was pretty decent tho.

Overall, It was a pretty decent start. It looks promising to me so I hope not to be wrong in the end.

Pretty good first episode, seems like an interesting world with some interesting characters. Don't know why but I really expected something dark to happen when the tutor Reira put her hand on Yuuki's shoulder. Find it a bit dubious of her signing all those documents without actually reading through them...if she even reads documents lol. But by the looks of it everyone sort of keeps her oblivious to the real situation out there.
