THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well, they actually had the final episode go out with a bang in the form a duel. Seems like they poured most of their budget into it as well.

The fight pretty much went what I had expected and Kazuma manages to prove himself. Ofc, he got fed and had a comfy bath afterwards...lucky bastard. Meh, this show felt pretty much like an advert for the main manga as the story continues far from here. Overall, really underwhelming.

This ending clearly suggested a second season and seeing as this didn't even cover the first 20 chapters they still have a lot of material left, the manga is at chapter hundred something i think.
Anyway it was really nice too see this animated after years of reading the manga it was really worth the wait.
And the did a great job.

The duel stretched into the final episode. It was pretty cool. Kazuya did really well in defeating Sunao. He had a good time after that. Sunao' mother is mad at her. She's going to have to marry Kazuya if she's going to inherit the house. Kiriha transferred into Kazuya so she can be closer to him. The way this show ended feels like it needs a second season.

The fight was short but intense and Kazuya has proved himself.

Sunao was given the option of marrying Kazuya. He got himself a new member to his harem.

'Divine Possession' kinda reminded me of Naruto's Sage mode.

This show has made me want to read the manga.

Wouldn't it be something if for once the protagonist didn't win the final battle? Set against an opponent with superior training, strength, and experience they always win despite the obvious fact they shouldn't. Instead, Kazuya won with a random technique that was neither mentioned nor hinted to existing prior to this point, how cliche and anticlimactic.

It was also nice of them to leave the last half of the finale for garbage fan service, though I suppose that does reflect this show's general atmosphere. Seriously, there were more bathing scenes in this show than there reasonably should be in a show. I hope that that second season that's being hinted at does not happen, cause I don't want to sit through another twelve episodes of this trash.

I have only seen the anime, but while I was waiting weekly, I took a peek at some parts of it, and


This episode ended with some great budget values too, and a pleasing ending, overall a 7.4/10, would be higher if it was uncersored, it would be awesome if the BDs were uncersored... anyway it was a good anime, enough to get me wanting to read the manga, guess I will start from chapter 1.

finally over....

lets talk about the final episode first.
kazuya's V-shield yet again bounced sunao's attack. sunao seems at her end towards it. the result is just a matter of time now.
(in fact she has one way to win at that time. when in close quarter, she can use a replication attack while she attacks using the sword itself in a vertical direction. that V-shield can only bounces axial attack, a vertical attack will hit it in all forces and tear it.)
kazuya can wait and win, but he decides to use his final shape and beat down sunao's ultimate move directly, and he succeeds! that means a perfect win with no accident. our mc defeats the boss (in this stage) and gets a new harem member.
kukuri gets some chance to serve kazuya besides table, and she imagines to be kazuya's wife. sugar for kukuri's fans.
kiriha and kukuri help kazuya in the bathroom omg~
prize from kiriha to kazuya, u know what that means...
ive heard that in some manga and game settings, male and female can refuel and recover after battle loss through sex. tsugumomo clearly indicates the same thing in this session.
sumeragi suzuri blames sunao for losing the battle, and orders her to marry kazuya! if you two become a couple, then this loss is just between family members, and sumeragi clan is still undefeated. it reminds me an old proverb, "if you can't beat them, join them". right KD35?
i thought it would be sunao to turn into kazuya's class, but its kiriha!
the narration come out in the end of this episode, unlike former episodes before the op.

overall this anime tells an interesting story with bizarre settings and lots of fanservices. main characters are ok and have their points. only sister kasumi hasnt got detailed portray, but i feel that she will get her own episodes in later chapters (probably even with her mother). the animation is average, but ZERO-G really did its job somehow. i dont like the op, but that ed song is so sad! its good, and it would be better if the original manga is a tragic ending for kiriha. though this anime cant afford lots of famous voice casters, they managed to call in some top casters like taketatsu ayana (experts in ecchi shows). other good casters like Boruto, Satanichia, Isuzu, Albas, Ruruko, Koizumi Hanayo and Katsuragi Misato also performed well. p.s. i love Inoue Kikuko!
this anime left a lot of hints for a sequel: sunao's marriage, kiriha's school life, sealed memory of kazuya (kanaka mentioned in kazuya's dream), and even kanaka's death. however this anime gained no commercial success, the blu-ray discs sell is estimated like less than a thousand, and we saw no boost for the original manga when its aired. additionally, i heard that this old manga got adapted just because they want to fill that empty schedule. in other words, its lucky enough for this manga to have a tv series and it should not hope to get more luck.

final verdict:
story:6
character:6
animation:5.5
sound:5.5
music:5
personal enjoyment:6.5
overall:6
(5 as average)

all in all, i'm still obliged to Toei, Pony Canyon, studio ZERO-G, Futabasha, and every people that contributes in this anime. thanks for a good time.
i still hate manga adaption. its so hard to watch a completed story!

in fact, most manga adaptations, or most adaptations, is made for boost the original source in market.
the original manga didnt display the "reward". otherwise it will turn to a hentai manga, i think.

Superb adaptation overall. The fight scene was as great as expected. The ending would've been funny if they adapted the rest of that extra chapter, though. Like so:



I would've given this a 10/10, but they didn't adapt this part:

While I wasn't wetting myself for Danmach, nearly every episode felt like a disappointment when compared to this one. In all fairness there is a limit in new content with respect to the overarching plot of that show. Still the character interactions from Danmachi compared to this are mediocre at best. I normally find myself focusing on 2-4 shows. And honestly this has been the most rewarding. Granblu I've been watching when I don't have anything else to watch, Danmachi kinda makes me just wanna finish it and throw it to the side. Renai is just too seriousness and all over the place for me, so essentially there is just this one. I definitely look forward to a second season for this. I think it deserves one more than Re Zero from last year, considering the cheap consistent rehashing that show kept on with.

As a quick note I noticed this thing seemed to have more balls with the ecchi than some show that features frontal and full moon shots, I'm looking at you, Masou Gakuen HxH.

I found it pretty enjoyable week to week. It won't get another season. I agree with with the statement that this was more of an advertisement then an adaptation. 12 episodes for something that has a lot of material to play with pretty much tells you that. Still, I had some fun with it.

I wish we had more stuff but thats where we are leaving i guess. And my favorite content is coming right after this episode. With Sunao and whole Mayoiga stuff. Glad that adaptation was fairly loyal obvious lewd stuff would be censored im just glad the story remained the same. (unlike in Fuuka last season *cough* *cough*)
Still though i feel like fights were done better in manga and i just love manga better overall.

I really like Opening and ending I feel like they are among the best this season but in a final episode i wish we would've skipped them and instead have more content, but the ending wasnt that bad i suppose. Obviously it makes the story feel unfinished but at least it didnt leave on a cliffhanger like many other animes do. Sunao's mom making her marry Kazuya makes it really tempting to get a season 2. Anyway i liked the adaptation and this episode (the one i was worried about the most)

The final fight was pretty good, and it looks like they saved their budget to make it look pretty.

Overall this show wasn't one that'll stay in my memory for very long. It had some funny moments here and there, and the final fight, like I said, was pretty good, but other than that it's a pretty forgettable show.

And now that I know that the BD's are confirmed uncensored, my body will be quite satisfied as well lol

The clash between Sunao and Kazuya was pretty fascinating, while the remainder of the narration reserved some great comic moments and not just eheheheheh! The series behaved well, though not revealing itself original, but if it comes to a second season, I will look at it with great pleasure.

For now, my vote is 6.95/10. I look at the BDs, to further unbalanced me.

Still cannot believe how PG this show has been so far. Did they really skip out on almost all of the lewd parts of the manga?

Ending things here was a good move. Possible to get to the next arc, and also alright if they decided not to do a second season.

Overall it was a good refresher for the start of the series. Time to go back to the manga, lol.

I started reading Tsugumomo years ago. I always wondered why an echii manga with such good art and decent story never got an adaptation. Yet stuff like To Love Ru has gotten several, but I digress.

It wasn't a perfect adaptation, and to be fair the worst part of Tsugumomo is the first half. However, I was pleasantly surprised with the over all quality of the adaptation. The animation was pretty good considering the budget and time. The art style was fairly close to the original. The casting was probably the best thing about the adaptation. Even the soundtrack was pretty good. I'm happy with what we got and would love an extra OVA now and then. Tsugumomo is the type of series that would have been a huge hit had it aired 10 years ago (then again the manga is about that old). Sadly the industry today content with churning out 12 episode long commercials.

I'd rate it a solid 8/10.

Considering the comedy elements I didn't expect such a clear-cut victory by Kazuya and Kiriha. It made the episode all the more fun.

I'm actually a little sad this is already finished, because they did a pretty good job with this Anime. Needless to say I hope there will be a season 2 in the not so distant future. Plus, the show already got me hooked for the manga.

Looks like Sunao was holding her strength back for the second half then. Though Kazuya did well in the first half though now he needs to contend with the second half. The invention of a new move at the moment though was a surprise though. Hmm so instead of blocking Kazuya used misdirection eh. This dual is gonna be close though thats for sure. I didn't think that they would enter a stalemate though tbh. Kazuya's inventiveness sure is impressive in surprising Sunao. The convo between Kukuri and Honoka was hillarious though. To think that Honoka used such a powerful technique on Sunao just to test her though. I guess Kazuya is determined to win over Sunao to show her that his way of thinking is the correct way. Charging in is the last thing Sunao would have expected though. The commentary that Honoka and Kukuri give during the dual was pretty interesting. If a Tsugumomo and its user has a deep enough bond then they can use this to enhance the user eh. Hmm Divine possession eh. Man what a dual and a dramatic one as well. But man what a victory for Kazuya and Kiriha though. It seems that after the victory Sunao has at least developed more respect for the tsugumomo. It seems that Sunao's views and attitude are not as bad as they thought then.

So Kazuya eventually fainted due to exhaustion eh. At least he didn't when he was in the middle of the dual. To think that Kazuya would go all out for this dual though. Lol Kazuya is one lucky guy in being fed by a goddess though. Kasumi would be pretty jealous lol. Kasumi's imagination though lol. Hmm unique way of having a bath though. Still i guess this could be said to be a reward for Kazuya though lol. Hmm Kukuri waking up with someone's pants on her head lol. Hmm the response from Kasumi though was just like her. Horny Youkai was a great description for Kiriha though lol. Wow to think that there is something that even Sunao is scared off eh. To think that was her mother though. Hmm i think both options are kinda unrealistic but the second one is more possible. Hmm its nice that in the end they showed what happened to all the characters though. This is the best type of ending though. Lol so the new transfer student is actually Kiriha eh. Tbh i thought it will be Sunao though.

I get why the rating is low for this series. The first few arcs of the manga were more comical and didnt have too many series moments and this ended right when Kazuya finally started to unlock his potential at this and when things are gonna start getting more series. I really hope a season two happens to show how really great this series will be.
