The best episode for me obviously because of Sylvia! It's nice to see someone who is truly strong and i'm not so often into liking insert songs but this one was very good it really caught my attention.

I'm sorry Claudia, Saya and Kirin....But Slyvia is the real best girl

Holy crap she is just too perfect....That perosnality, those looks and THAT FUCKING VOICE....Ayato was spot on, her power is omnipotence at its finest and so majestic

But them cliffhangers tho....Really looking forward to the next ep


Agreed. I couldn't help but be sceptical of Slyvia when she appeared like she did at the end of the episode last week, but she's helping Ayato find Flora's location. The way she did it though.....damn, that song was AMAZING! ^_^

Props to the animation team too. It made the scene even more beautiful to view! =D

Poor Yabuki....rather than being appreciated for his hacking skills, Saya and Kirin gave him a dirty look. XD

Considering Ayato and Julis' semi-final match was a bit lacking, I only hope that the final match against the robots will be thrilling. =)

Ayato has a quality harem, every girl is wonderful and memorable. So hard to like just one girl lol.

Julis is the new face of tsundere, she is showing you can be tsun without resorting to physical violence or crude insults. That speech at the end...a beautiful presentation of her dere side. She's strong and intelligent while still retaining some femininity and not being overbearing. She doesn't need protecting but will not balk at it. She is a true partner, standing side by side with Ayato. She doesn't stand behind or in front of him but beside him. I'm still Team Saya but I love this harem as a whole. They have missed some events in the LN that could add to the anime but overall this is pretty fun and never fails to put me in a good mood.

So far, this is one of the best episodes in the second season of this anime where it introduces a perfect new character named Sylvia which I really liked the most! This show really improves compared to the last one! 4/5!

Wondering what are they going to do with the remaining episodes. Will the five/six episodes be focusing on the entirety of the two major battles? Or will the series be adding the light novel seventh volume AKA best girl's Sylvia's actual spotlight to the last parts of the series?

Dayum this show knows how to do fanservice right. Sylvia steals the spotlight, but Saya & Kirin are still going strong.

I've never heard engrish sound so good....

I dunno what shit show is doing right, but there's so many likable characters, and i don't even know why they're all so likable. At a glance you know what to expect of a character, and you get exactly what you want of them (without breaking continuity), it's so great.

The girl is Sylvia and that saved Ayato, she is the nr 1 straga and a famous singer with godly powers, she helps find Flora while MacPhail is back and is forced to help out :)

Too bad she will lose to Julis at the end :(

There's still the Lieseltania arc in volume six which is basically a visit to Sasamiya family home in Germany & then to Julis' home country. We won't get to the School Festival arc (which is Sylvia's arc) unless we get another season.

I just want to say Sylvia's song should have been the ED for this season. The official one is alright but it lacks the magical feel the first ED had. Sylvia's song completely captures that magic again and it would have fitted with the tone this second series had.
"You talk too much. Think too much."
"I don't care how justified you think your reasons are. I won't tolerate liars or thieves."
"If you're not going to be nice to me, don't expect me to be nice to you."
"I'm a soldier, not a superhero. Don't ever think of me as one."
"The world doesn't revolve around you. Get that through your thick skull."
"People who live by their emotions go nowhere in their lives. They only find misery.

How Sylvia wrecked the gangster was cool and her singing was nice.

Leave the rescue to the loli team.

Next episode, time to make some electrical waste.

I have to say, at this point, I like Saya and Kirin much more than Julis. She's too bland in my opinion.

Damn, that chick is super cute and powerful! If I attempted to r*pe her, I'd end up breaking my neck too...

Ah, she's that idol chick that was absent during that student council meeting. Man, she looks so attractive. I got a hard-on even though she didn't have any ecchi scenes. Her power looked cool and gave me goosebumps too.
