| It had some funny moments and some nice action, but besides that... bad - mediocre. I just hope it will get better in the next episodes :/ |
 |

It's a yuri anime....kinda, just that one of the girls used to be a boy. There are a few other shows but not much. There are more manga stories on this topic. |
| Okay, seriously....=_= Stop being so negative....>> (I have no idea why do I keep comming back to this discussion though...Oo) |

| As stated before, anyone watching this for plot would be disappointed, and would look, well, to be blunt, kinda dumb. However, the humour may vary for each individual. I personally enjoyed all the bits of humour in the show, and I do like a couple of characters, especially Kämpfer Akane and Kämpfer Natsuru (because frankly I find it funny for a character in his situation, or maybe I am just able to find the funny in just about anything). So far, I don't regret picking this show up. Silly, fun and I found the animation good. Well, for the opening and the ending, I found them pretty decent, but I think some people would probably like them better as songs than the full package, because I do notice that they don't like the animation that goes along. To each his own, I guess. |

| male-form of Natsuru It's pretty obvious what this show is. So I'm not expecting too much out of it. And will just watch it for the pure enjoyment of what it is. But my GOSH Natsuru (Male-form's) voice is annoying. It's so boyish~childish. He looks like a man...and needs a more manly (Or at least a actual guy's voice). That's the only turn-off for me so far. They need to get a male-voice actor to play his male-counterpart. |
| That wasn't as bad as I expected. Not good, but not terrible either. I found Natsuru's male voice too girly too, but it's not so bad that I can't get used to it. Kampfer Akane was the best part of the show for me. Her normal self is pretty annoying though. Her mind's constantly in the gutter! I think I'll watch a few more episodes before I decide if I should continue with the series. Seems like it's pretty much mindless fun and entertainment. |

| I actually enjoyed it. It's so stupid its funny :D |
 |
| I thought it was interesting. Going to keep watching. I've seen worse shows. I thought this was OK, and enjoyable ^^ And that bear plush sounded a lot like Kafuka from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei to me lol. |
 |
| SEIYUU FAGGING TIME Besides that, meh. |
| It was weird, funny at times but only because it was so bad it was entertaining. Not the worst thing I have seen and I think I will watch at least the next episode. The ED scared me. Seriously it freaked me out for some reason. I don't think I'm the target audience for this type of show. |
| Some people have commented on Male Natsuru's voice and how girly it is. That may be true, but I'm not too bothered about it. However, I feel that Marina Inoue can do a male voice better than this, and I do hope to see her improve as the series progresses. |
| That ending was something else. The way they swing back and forth so fast looked so weird and awkward. As for the show I thought it was alright, the scene in the library with Natsuru and Akane was hilarious. Other than that though it was a decent episode and I'm looking forward to the next episode. I'm actually more interested in the messengers, there's just something about a cute looking plush toy that has an eye patch and intestines spilling out of him that I like. |
 |
| I do agree to all that say that the voice of Natsuru could've been done better in the male version. I was quite "shocked" when I heard a female voice on him. Were thinking the female voice "was stuck" in him after the first transformation. But rest of the episode was good enough. |
Mikiyo said: Wasabi said: Or Mars of Destruction.There's worse shit out there... like Queen's Blade. Anyway I dropped this shit. Mars Of Destruction IS the worst ever, I doubt anything wil beat it! It wasn't great but it wasn't trash either. Its quite possible it will pick up as the plot does seem somewhat interesting. I think I'l give this another episode and if it doesnt pick up I'll drop it! |

flame_tiong said: best part of this episode is when Akane pointing her gun at natsuru in the library; akane: "u sure have the nerve to call me akane-chan" lol hahaha... |
 If he's not with us, he's AGAINST us!!! |
| just give it a go 1st... |
 |
| I absolutely horrible just like the manga but even worse. At least manga didn't have the terrible voice acting. I mean Natsurus male voice sounds like hes 5 years old. I know its voiced by a woman but take for example Naruto from well.. Naruto or Edward from Full metal alchemist and you'll hear the difference in good and bad voice acting. Either way I'll watch it to the the end just for laughs. |

| Why I have faith in this show is mainly because 1. the character design I saw a few month ago, its my kind of type, and the anime doesnt disappoint me.  2. it was recommended to me by people who told me to watch Umineko (of which I was quite disappointed at first, but now Im totally glad I didnt drop it) Its said all who've read 6th volume of the light novel instantly became fans the next morning lol.... But I can understand when people dont find this anime really funny. It is mainly making fun using Japanese vulgar language, and some of it is indeed hard to get "properly" translated. I just watched the gg subbed version and Id say, some of the jokes fell flat due to the "not-so-funny" translation. Sadly, Im neither perfect in Japanese nor in English, but in 2 scenes, I would say it sounds more like this: *put a spoiler to spare some space* |

| It was pretty awful, but I was still entertained. I'm probably dropping it when I see what else I'm gonna watch this season, but I'll keep it on the watch list for now. If nothing else, it's something to laugh *at*. Not a train wreck, just ridiculous. |
| I d/led it. Just haven't watched it yet. |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| The ED dance looks painful.... |
 |
| It's not that bad nor that good, It was just fine.. I'll continue watching unless I change my mind ^^ |
Arc_ said: indeed, I was quite surprised. The ED dance looks painful.... Anyways, I will definitely continue to watch this shit because quite honestly its so bad its funny. |

| I liked it thought it was really funny. |
 |
| Natsuru's male voice is WAY too high. It was so grating I might never get used to it. Especially since he looks manly enough to not have the voice of an 8 year old. Oh, whatever. But I liked this episode. Let's see where this goes... |

| the main thing through my mind was: trap? |
| Stupid and nonsensical. I did like Akane, though, and she's the whole reason why I'll give it another episode. But that's it. The show's on VERY thin ice with me right now. |
 |
| This is the best show this season hands down. excluding dtb2 |
MM805 said: This is the best show this season hands down. excluding dtb2 If you think thisis the best show of the season, you either have awful taste or haven't seen many of the new shows. And Darker than Black 2 hasn't even aired yet, for all you know it could be awful. |
 |
| Natsuru's seiyuu is the same as Frau in 07-Ghost and Wataru in Hayate no gotoku, which both are male characters and Frau sound so cool as a man... don't know why Natsuru's voice sound like feminine in this show |

Marina only voice him when he was a kid...got it I think Marina suited to voice young male only....she not the same level as Mitsuki Saiga or Paku Romi that can voiced man perfectly. (Take example of Edward and Rossiu). |

| It's fine and so far I like the story -- similar to countless others that I have seen, no doubt :/ .....like others have said, "It's a good time waster." |
 |
| Well, the opinions have been mixed so far - they range from absolutely scathing criticism to positive ones. But more on the negative side, sadly. With this in mind, the second episode might make it or break it for many. I personally enjoyed the episode; don't take this too seriously throughout and you'll find that you could enjoy it more. I still think it could be better, but the start was promising, in my eyes. |
MM805 said: This is the best show this season hands down. excluding dtb2 Uhh...Railgun was way way WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY~~~~~~~~~ better. But that is just my point of view.... As for those who said the voices for the characters are bad and is mismatching, it kinda feels like the creator tried to make it this way just to make the viewer laugh. Heck, they even tell you in the show who their Seiyu (voice actor/actress) are! I almost gave up on this show but after how they joked around like that, I am going to stick with it to the end (even if it turns into something as bad as Queen's Blade...) |

If he's not with us, he's AGAINST us!!! |
| It was pretty funny so far especially for sarcastically telling who their seiyuu(s) are, also the animation looks very good but I think Inoue should dub that Natsuru-boy manlier just like what she did in Hayate no Gotoku! as Wataru. |
| well its good enough to watch when i m hella bored/nothing to do so far.it is first epi after all so won't judge it just yet. hope it gets better tho. |

Haha...tell me about it. xD They're pretty friggin' awesome and I was shocked at first to know that they were voiced by female seiyuus. x'3 I mean..my guy friend refuses to believe that they're voiced by girls...he even said that he wouldn't believe me if he saw her voicing the characters on camera or something. xD lawl |
