THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Certainly the last episode was EPIC in terms of fighting and emotional intensity between Takeru x Haruko.

Otohime was plain damn dirty to do what she did not only towards Takeru but Haruko too. As in the spoiler to a certain extent she was quite hot like that with that pose.

Takeru was seriously overpowering in his insane form. It was way too much. Good thing Venus interrupted and we get to know that the twins are indeed portal makers.

I gave this series 8/10 mainly due to the ecchi/comedy and action around it. On average it came out as something of Seikirei/Ikkitousen mixture that played out fine with me. More later

Otohime is a mega bitch making Takeru attack his friends and dear god he looked and had insane powers in that form.

That end, really, Himegami would never take to such a suggestion of lingerie.

8.5/10

Even though Takeru looked pretty damn evil, I still couldn't take him seriously and was laughing at the close ups.

.... This episode can actually divided into 2-3episode, but instead they cramp everything all in 20minute that makes it look like a 12 years old kid writing a crappy story with fast confusing development. T.T

There is nothing much annoying about this Anime,I am having great fun watching this, thou the story is a bit..somehow its a bit messy in the end.

2/3 for the pants lol

They made Takeru go OVER9000 Super Saiyen level 5 full power!

For your inquiry (the bolted part):
The first Blu-ray Disc/DVD volume for the Maken-Ki! television anime series will include bonus anime extras when it ships on December 22. The bonus high-definition "Dokidoki! Maken-Ki! Himitsu no Kunren" short will run about 10 minutes long and feature the heroine Haruko Amaya in a secret one-on-one training session. The first of six volumes will also include a "Maken-Ki! Zenkai Version" of the main anime with scenes that did not air on television.

it shame they skipped on the battle against venus but when i think about it the battle against venus taken 6 or 7 chapters in the manga and they reached to this point in the anime too late to cover it

Definitely the best episode, love it when the harem MC gets some kind of huge powr up to make him less weak, love it even better when they get a uncontrollable berserk type power...makes the dynamic of trying to save him pretty interesting. The final episodes were good, it just took to long to finally get the show moving. Would look forward to a season 2 if it appears.

The series was quite enjoyable from the fanservice point of view, i'm a bit dissappointed how the story was progressing tho. well overall it was quite fun to watch and i'll be awaiting the BDs for this series to enjoy the true fanservice experience XD.

This series was pretty average, too slow paced for sure and lack of story development. Takeru went berserker mode with that spirit was pretty good, finally he can be strong but cannot control the power.

Not too bad an ending for a fanservice show, but the series has been pretty average in every aspect apart from the fanservice that was the highest ranked thing out of the show :L.

A lot of stuff seemed to get crammed into this episode (like the mother and dojo scene--where did that come from?), but overall the series was entertaining. Takeru gets both Haruko and Inaho, while Himegami gets Usui. I think there was probably a lot of background on Himegami that we didn't get (and I suspect that she and Takeru are related) due to massive cuts in plot development to fit this into 12 episodes. I'll keep this at 7 and I would watch a second season.

4 to 5k should give it a second season since it looking to sell that amount basic on the pre-orders, I mean this is by the same company who did sora no otoshimono which did about the same amount and got a second season, but if it get a season 2, get your popcorn ready for the hate comments when dtshyk post it up...

ths anime was funny but dissapointing first of all this is suppose to be about a school of fighting theres about 3 fights in the whole thing, the last episode was shit i wouldnt class that as a fight also whats with making the main character the bad guy.
this anime tryed to be like sekirei and ikkitousen so much it failed the only reason why i gave this anime a 7 is because it was funy

I got annoyed by the direction in which his rage was targeted(why would he target the school when all it did was stood there instead of beating the chick). To me it was a completely wasted episode for the story direction. Don't get me wrong i know what type of anime this is but to me everything fails if the story takes a sudden turn for the worst

Was there a plot? It seemed liked the show was trying too hard to find an identity. In the end they were like "If you're ever in our town come check us out at our academy." I rate it 5/10 just because of the service and Himegami.

So much rushing, but still fun to watch. Last episode was alright, great fighting and it was still able to keep the ecchiness and comedic moments. I liked the epilogue, good to see them all end in a happy note. They did leave a lot of stuff out/ unexplained stuff though, sure wouldn't mind a second season.

Man I was really hoping for more than that. I'm not even sure what the point of the show was other than fan service and wooo cool super powers...

I think I'll give it a 6 due to it's lack of a coherent plot, and failure to tie up really any lose ends at all.

The rest of the series was pretty decent, even if nothing happens at all, but this last episode was just horrible bad.

I read some of the manga and while not Great, it is much better than this. The anime seems to completely disregard most of the plot as well, instead making up this crap (although it is possible he later gains these specific abilities in the manga).

Due to the anime half making up random crap and half following the manga, the plot makes no sense and has numerous plot elements that are brought up and then not explored at all.

Please God, stop them from making another season of this horrible anime. If I want to watch a slideshow with enormous breasts, a sea of pantyshots etc... there are a lot of web sites providing it. I watched all episodes, and even once my hope that this will be a decent show returned for a while (episode about date with Himegami), but afterall I`m really dissapointed.
