That was underwhelming for a finale especially the ending...

They could of done this episode earlier on with reflecting everything that happened up this point. Not much action either although they did take out the awkward comedy. Pretty meh show overall, easily forgettable. Poor Houhou though, felt bad at the way she was being treated.

Still another flashback for the final episode. Seems they want to make Houhou's past to be clear first before going for another of Souran story.
And that "Now I can die peacefully after telling the truth" cliche finally comes. Totally need a second Season.

Somewhat anticlimatic, but still a good finale, even though id been hoping for at least one more episode
Overall, a terrific show in my own opinion, definitely one of the most underrated of the season, i would truly love a second season as that cliffhanger sucked!

The last episodes were pretty good in my opinion. The whole war thing and Houhou's past were interesting. Though, until episode 7 things were boring. I think a season 2 would be nice. Seeing other outsiders and Soran in the tournament fighting would make for a good season.

This was a largely unimpressive show. It's too bad that we'll have to wait for a potential second season to see if it goes anywhere.

There was a lot of good ideas here, but the execution was blah.

I didn't even realize that was the last show until I got the "set as completed" notice on my page...lol. I really enjoyed the series thanks to best girl Ho Ho. She was one of the most entertaining characters in an anime in a long time. I will eagerly await a second series if one comes along.... if not, then I am fine with no answers to a lot of questions. It's sort of like a mystery that I don't need solved to enjoy what I watched. 8/10

despite some shitty animation I quite enjoyed this show on the whole. It was a strange last episode, I'm presuming there will be a season 2 as its a really odd place to finish the story. I'd defiantly watch it just for HouHou 7/10

You'd better know that the last ep of Chinese edition is 43 minutes.But the TV edition you have seen just 25 minutes. Because of being deleted a lot, the final is just so so.

The finale was so underwhelming that I was expecting a season 2 announcement at the very end. Wellp. That didn't happen.

I feel like this show really needs one too. The overall quality of the show may have been subpar, but I'll be damned they got me fucking hooked on the story.

The Koushin Wars, Soran's grandfather's "sin" and the truth behind him and the Tenshinfu. That Raiten Taishou tournament thing to decide the next Tenshi. Houhou supposed to get her memories back through all of these encounters.

Like, fuck man. TELL ME! I NEED TO KNOW!!!! SEASON 2!!

Can someone please explain why they make this kind of anime? Is it like: oh we just make some episodes and then release it to test if the audience likes it? or is it: we make what we can until we run out of money? or is it: we just want to mess with people who watch this. f**k you audience!

The thing is the show was ok at the beginning. Good at the middle and then super great at the 2-3 last episodes. Then when the show truly was to start, we get the finale which is just "I Am ready to fight in the tournament". No answers. Poor fuu has no answers...

Even though we didn't get to see any fights, it showed us the some of the truth and reached the end normally so we can get a second season.

Houhou such a great character, 12 years waiting, fullfilling promises, lots of development near the end.
Early episodes wasted some time on random stuff & very annoying mc. He got slightly tolerable later, & Koushin War & tournament just picked up interest so hope an s2.

I felt like the backstory for hou hou could have been a good first two episodes if they started the series with that because the last two episodes where the most decent and tied a lot of loose ends that I felt could have been tied earlier.

The ending felt lame for an action anime. I was hoping for something with a more meaningful climax instead of a two episode backstory which could've been easily summarised into one episode. Additionally, there is so much more that needs explaining but the creators wasted that time in the first few episodes with useless crap. At least the MC wasn't completely weak. But the animation kinda sucks.

Was not bad as a finale, since for the first time, a lot of information regarding Fuu Houhou and stuff from the past was revealed. Of course, still, it was just a small part of the whole, i.e. definitely needs a 2nd season.

Overall, it was really interesting, imo. In the beginning, it felt like a 08/15 action anime, and it kind of is, but manages to have enough story behind it, which is revealed slowly, to keep things interesting. Also, Fuu Houhou is interesting in many aspects for me.

Really liked it and hoping for a 2nd season.

So.....it's over? What the hell?

Ok....I hope there is another season, if only to answer my unanswered questions lol.

But, as far as everything goes, not a bad anime....plus I found Houhou more adorable with each episode haha!!!

Ended up giving this a 6/10.
If the whole season was like the last few episode I might of given it a 7 or 8. I didn't hate the series, but the awkward comedy was poor, it tried to take it self seriously, but they they would throw in comedy. Took way too long to get into the show it was trying to tell, which would be ok for a long running serie, but for a shorter show it not that good. I liked the music including the ED and OP. Animation was all over the place, it had spots with good animation then like the next scene it just drop. Over all I would like a season 2, because I do feel like there is potential here, especially based on the last few episodes.

Weak ending, but has/had potential depending on if it goes anywhere with a second season. Not a terrible show, but not a good one either, but had interesting plot points.

I liked how it started out and it definitely had the potential to be good. Shitty animation and the cliches really killed it for me. I feel like Chinese anime are making great strides.

I think the last 2 episodes were decent and if this anime focused it from the start then it may have the potential but overall the characters with bland personality. Only thing good was wanting to know more about Hoho. 5/10

WTF. The entire series was really disjointed, it has a lot of my favorite troupes, but yet it didn't manage to pull them off, feel like it tries to be cool, but eventually falls flat and ended up being really lame. Churan's character has very little redeeming quality too.

I gotta admit though that I liked Baobao's backstory thus far, but that's probably it. I hated a lot of the cringey moments where characters just went on to talk about his or her tough past that nobody cares about, and Churan's depression is really nothing, I don't get why he's so hung up on being a DT, like jesus christ, you want to stop being a DT, but you don't want sex without love, and you have some love-less complex or something, you want people to love you as if you've never been loved your entire life (platonic), it just didn't mesh well and his character narrative is just a whole mess. He's also a weakling without his ki power, like how can people who have trained martial arts be this weak without enhancement, you should have retain your skills even if you don't have any ki, right?Oh well, plot.

Wish this could've focused more on martial arts and action, and less magic "my technique is stronger than you" or "my ki blocks off all attacks".

I like the modern setting in this story. These 12 episodes felt like a mere prologue with little focus to actual martial arts or any of the characters other than Fuu Houhou. Her backstory was fairly interesting. The production was far from top tier, but acceptable with good choices.

I doubt this will get fully adapted, or even have a second season, as it was likely a slightly longer advertisement. However, I hope to stumble upon the source material in the future.

That was poorly executed. I felt like the directors just mashed this together and they did not really understand the original source material very well. Hayami's voice was splendid tho

Okay, I watched through the chinese uncut version
I think this last one could be the most interesting for everyone, so if some of you knows chinese better, or has a chinese-speaking friend who can help, it would be nice to translate the part between 37:41 - 38:34 in the video below and post here what they're saying.

they're talking about the 罗天大醮,the second season will show it. one of the old man is天师,who is the most respected master.

To see the second season that is in broadcast! <3
It saddened me to see that the grandfather died.
I expected HO HO to say "my chest hurts" when the old man died

The question isn't "What anime do you like?" That is merely a list.
The question is "Why do you like it?" That tells a story. Your story.

Contrary to popular belief I think this was tremendous finale. A beautiful farewell for Pup. Hou Hou story was really sad.

We got some question fixed and we gonna have second season to answear them.

I am really glad that they showed bastard getting buried alive. Most anime wil not show scenes like this. Appreciation. Serves them right.

Hopefully Soran gonna grew a pair(i doubt it). Still want to see more about Hou Hou.

Well that was interesting, I was kind of hesitating on watching this series because of the reviews but after watching it I found it normal but still interesting. Looking forward on knowing about the war in the past.
