THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Welp, a fan service episode of swimsuits and....well I'm not surprised. Utaha looked great as expected while we get a lot of fan service from the other girls as well (being episode 0, the camera angles were pretty suggestive). Megumi was cute in this. I hope to see more of her in the second season. Edit: episode is out on Amazon Prime. Mod Edit: Modified title. |

About what I expected considering the Episode 0 from the first season. I've been looking forward to this show for a while and I'm glad to see it back. |

Utaha op. Anyways I'm still getting a feeling that the girls are shaping Megumi into the best girl and in the end she wins Tomoya's heart. |

Saekano is back! A good way to reintroduce us to the characters. Lots of fanservice in this one. |

Episode 0 will probably be the best fanservice episode just like with season 1. |

That rewrite, ao no kanata and demi chan poster... Well from what I heard the 2nd season should be more serious and this episode was just fanservice huh... well it was pretty mediocre... I hope the op of season 2 wont be like that... it was just a mesh of season 1 scenes, disappointing. |

This was a perfect example as to why I love these characters and this series...Utaha is still best girl though =P Really excited for Episode 1 |

I forgot how much I loved this series. I haven't watched something this enjoyable of this type in such a long time, maybe since the last season |

Yupp. Utaha my favorite girl. That scene with Utaha and Tomoya had me laughing. I love the character interactions. Can't wait for next week! |

Kasumigaoka Utaha is as nuts as ever!! Katou being the usual devious soft-spoken angel <3. Eriri looks nice in that jacket. Had a good laugh especially at the phone scene. Really excited for the new OP and ED to get animated |

I never imagined an anime that would place all the cliche characters at one place and still make it enjoyable. But I love how they pointed out their own shortcomings during the start of the episode, I feel that they must have read all those reviews at MAL and decided to give it a boost in the lacking areas. And Utaha Senpai is the best. and I loved how almost every character got their own special moments in a single episode. All those moments were worthy of a decent flashback. The wild imagination of eri, the bouncy izumii, the pool press and guitar play of cousin, the cpr attempt and dinner date of Utaha and the climax with kato on a bridge. All these moments were just wonderful. Can't wait for the second season. For some reason, all the shortcomings of anime are just not able to bring down the enjoyable aspects of this anime |

This was really great! The first minute was probably the most interesting thing to listen to (about "something" getting a second season). That was hilarious and a nice way to break the 4th wall XD Suprised to see noone even mentioned this lol, instead everyone highlights the fanservice. K. |

Rather reminiscent of what they did with episode 0 of the first season, but you know what they say: if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Once again they put the excessive fanservice episode at the very beginning but they do it in a very self-aware and 4th-wall-breaking kind of way which is rather tasteful and humorous in nature. I like it Lots of posters for other recent anime in the background here and there thoughout the episode too |

Utaha is attractive in this episode. I liked the interactions between the characters, especially the dialogues at the beginning. The new OP is very pleasant. :) 4/5 |

This is on the same level as the first special episode of the first season. Im just afraid the MC is dense enough, to not to choose Best Girl - Utaha-senpai. |

Pretty much typical Saekano at this point, but it was a nice enough way to reintroduce us to the characters, considering how long ago the first season was. |

cuz its a fanservice episode, i wont dicuss about story or plot. some personal feeling: troll itself as usual. 4th wall broken. megumi gets even more harakuro. every boob shot does harm to some 79.9A breast female...hostility from producer. michiru desires sex..quite doubt if her future husband can handle it. utaha senpai omg... plz plz date me! i want ur wine, ur stocking, ur long hair, ur full body, ur sharp words...everything! dont waste time in that man! tomoya straight towards megumi, clearly the end would go as novel title. at last some advertisement for noitaminA and kuzu no honkai.. over all every character and cv performs well, sounds ok but animation not so perfect. no storyline at all, i cant give it too much credit, but thats exactly what i want. episode 1 will be girls side story? |

People call this a parody of otaku light novel harems but in the end that's just a pretense and it ends up being kind of the same thing. When making a parody make sure not to become the very thing you intended to parody. Something something gaze into the abyss something something abyss also gazes into you. -Nietzsche. |

I loved every second of this episode. It's the first time that too much fanservice didn't annoy me. They were really funny. Especially Utaha-senpai, truly the best girl! |

That's how you make fanservice boys Nothing that can make you facepalm Didn't remember that girls was so much on MC anyway, I don't know if it's cause of that fanservice or if I've forgotten some important details That self critic at the beginning are purely gold btw |

That's a lot of screenshots and gifs worthy scenes right there. Now this is what fan service is supposed to be like. Well putting that aside, such horrible subs that can't even time properly ughh. |

Nice to see Saekano back, and man did it shattered the fourth wall many times with its own self criticism of season 1. XD Not just that, but episode 0 also showcased just how sexy Eriri, Megumi, Utaha, Michiru and Izumi are in their respective bikinis. =3 All in all, it was funny and honestly better than season 1's episode 0 as well. The only thing that constantly irritated me though was the subtitles. The font quality and words itself are fine, but it seems whoever was in charge of the subtitle timing at Amazon completely failed to time it right each and every time. Hopefully that problem is sorted before episode 1 kicks off next week. =/ 8/10. |

Trust me, Aki is as autistic as a MC can get (god I fucking hate this MC). But he is a very well written character. If the anime adapts the LNs correctly, you'll see what I mean. OT: Utaha sama heals my soul. Man this season 2 is gonna be one hell of a wild ride. As a LN reader, can't wait to see all the reactions in the later half of the season (assuming they adapt to Volume 7 which they will). |
