THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The preair is online.

You know a show is going to be ridiculous when it starts with a dirty magazine and masochist jokes. The epsiode features pretty much Takuma and Natsuki so far. There's some other characters appearing but I guess they are going to be the most prominent pair. Looks like characters have levels too lol...

I hope the BDs are getting a lot of fixes because there are nipples in the manga and that's censored here by blonde girl's hair (plus a few missing close ups of her panties when she's on top of him). A downer so far considering this is handled by hoods entertainment.

The "sony is slowly turning squeenix woke" fears are gaining more steam considering the content.

Huh, didn't realize Square Enix published the original manga. Would they have that effect on the anime too, or is that just a broadcast restriction? Thankfully Sentai grabbed the show, so if there is an uncensored version, they'll release it. How bad is the changes compared?

And poor Takuma, being treated like a demon. Though he does have nine girls living with him so he should consider himself lucky.

The animation was really mediocre.

Takuma is like Shinra, except minus the world building in Fire Force's first episode. I feel bad for him, but also I have no clue why a battalion of babes want his dick. More harem fodder.

Okay start, I pretty much started watching this because I liked Natsuki in the poster art. I did end up liking her a lot, so that's good.

Ponytail Natsuki is <3

While the girls seem interesting, I don't know if I'll be able to sit through this show until the very end.

Hmm the school sure has quite the number of cute and beautiful girls. Damm the mc's pretty tall for a high school student. Still its harsh that due to his aura Takuma's childhood has been rather empty. Takuma's house though large as it is sure has some curious occupants. A valk that gains exp via intimate acts with her liege huh interesting idea. While Natsuki's display of her power was impressive seems that there are some that oppose Takuma being the one that bonds them. Overall an impressive first ep that did well in introducing the mc and the first of the girls. The mc's base personality is a bit of a curious one and im curious to see how he handles the relationships with the rest of the sisters.

The whole "MC powering up girls by doing lewd stuff to them" idea isn't exactly revolutionary by now

I've seen it done worse though but still, seems pretty mediocre. As always, action + ecchi is not a good combo

Also they really could've explained things better here as far as the exposition goes. Felt like you had no idea why the girls were there in the first place for most of the episode

Welp, never thought that Hoods Entertainment will use this as a comeback. @RebelPanda FYI for the mediocre animation.

MC Akutsu Takuma the "Demon-face" certainly raises some doubts that he will be the centrifugal piece of the show. Due to his perceived aggressive behaviour, it's known that making friends became a phobia.

However, the many girls that camped in his home...those are the real killers. The chosen guy for many girls to fan their love towards him.

The manga itself is full-on nudity, and I understand the censoring. But wow, am I impressed that it followed all the way through with the Valkyrie terminology.

It seems that way. I remember a similar manga (Peter Grill no Jikan) that has the same concept, that got greenlit for an anime adaptation just very recently.

I think I'm actually gonna invest fully in this series. The similarity to Date A Live is there, just replace it with Asgard, Odin and Valkyries history of "love is the answer".

May be the surprise hit of the season, I'm actually shocked by how good it is.

Tbh better than expected, despite the mediocrity in animation. Not a fan of the MC’s voice though, although it fits alright to the character. Might check out next episode but let’s hope that it wouldn’t nosedive in quality like many other harem shows.

Life would be so much simpler if people would just read the descriptors for series before being offended. It's harem and it's ecchi, so if you don't like those genres, don't watch.

That being said, the question is how well does it work as an ecchi harem rom/com and frankly it's a little too early to tell. It opened in medias res, so that's one sign that it might be elevated a little bit above the run of the mill, but the female characters are a little cliche at this point and the animation is by no mean top tier. The plot looks to be tied to the Norse pantheon and Ragnarok, with clues pointaing to Surtr as being one of the main villains.

The most interesting thing plot-wise, is that the nine Valkyrie are all aware of who they are, as is the MC, so the real story looks like it might be how do these girls turn a very reluctant Takuma into someone who really is a lover, since that is what is needed to save the world.

I'm hoping for something like HS DxD, or To Love Ru in the end, particularly as some of the female leads are already top tier waifu material, although with a shounen manga as a source, rather than an LN, or a seinen source, I'm probably going to be disappointed.

Watched the OP, almost dropped it. I heard Kaede Hondo... SOLD! And then Ai Kakuma.... an then Rina Hidaka..... and then Yumi Hara. They really got me with the seiyus xD.

The part where the guy throws himself out the window was fucking hilarious lmao.

Genuinely surprised with this one, it was quite funny and it's nice to have a full
harem ecchi show. One thing I'd like is to have some more background on how the girls just started living there.

Lewd but not as lewd as I remembered, or maybe I'm mixing it up with another series, been a while since I bothered to look at the manga. Still not a fan of the male protagonist regardless. Also the fight scene was very... very meh. Some anime try to do more but it seems like this won't be one of them.

Anyway, definitely not gonna do well with the anime community, shows that involve power up through lewding almost always never do.

I love they switch beetween akuma and demon just because they had to leave "akuma" untranslated for that shitty pun at the start about MC's name being similar to akuma.
They could've translated akuma as demon at all times. The pun would've been lost, yes. But it's not like this is a pun comedy, and MC's nickname as "akuma" (demon) is because of people being afraid of him, not a pun on his name.

This perfectly describes why I felt so uncomfortable watching this. It tried to jam 4 episodes worth of knowledge into a single episode, except we learn nothing. In episode 1 they introduce 10 people, start In Medias Res, and immediately proceed to dive into nonsense fanservice. Basically the MAL synopsis is a 10 second flashback in the last 60 seconds of the episode.

This was weak. Really weak. I don't know what the source is like, but what we have here is shallow, rushed, and greedy.

A guy is given control over nine valkyrie, who gain power the more in love they are, to defeat the invading 悪魔. Honestly, the plot doesn't sound all that interesting and the anime itself doesn't really have anything else going for it. It just feels like one of those "pick your waifu" shows disguised as something a little bit more serious. I really dislike the dark colors of this. Like it's not dark in the sense that there's a lot of stylish blacks, it's just normal colors with darker shades, like the entire show has poor lighting. This is anime, it's supposed to be bright and colorful. MC isn't likable either. The people in the show treat him like a zombie and that's exactly how he comes off to the audience as well. Frankenstein in both looks and personality.

to call this a mess seems like a understatement , felt like i was watching the first episode of a second season that had a minor flash back recap only to find out this is some kind of battle harem ecchi conception which will always be a terrible premise.
