| It;s a good show so far but an overall 4/5, never had the feeling of a 5/5 ep. Looks promising though. |
| Everybody has the right to have his own opinion on something.And you do have the right to disagree with them.But that doesnt give you the right to impose your opinion on others, even though you do have the right to think you are fucking awesome. |
| Last episode, cute Kayo died. This episode, adorable Tina is introduced. Hope she sticks around.. I'm liking Miori a looooot more than Kisara since she's more direct with her feelings! Wish she'll have a lot of screen time! |

| Better than the last episode, but still feels a bit off. Rentaro was a boss telling those guards to shut up XD Another loli, and she'll probably be the next one to go. Looks like Kisara is a reliable fighter, hope to see her do something useful in the upcoming episodes. Overall great episode 4/5 for now. |

| is it just me or did the animation became noticeably worse? http://puu.sh/8CP21.jpg |
| I;m just gonna say that this show has one of the worst settings ever. It's becoming increasinly harder to take this show seriously. I'll just keep watching because I'm curious if things get any worse. |

After all she's dying really soon ;(Is it just me.. or is enju-chan not getting more screens? other then the fights, i completely forget about her :( it's actually rather disappointing It was a good episode, but I can't help but feel annoyed that it was just a build-up, and I have to wait another whole week now :D Seitenshi is a really good character, she's pretty and I didn't expect her to be so idealistic. I wonder what does Tendo think of this though. -ShadowClaw- said: Same here, he's the best villain this season.Hmn i can still see potential in this series i just hope it keeps it up Does anybody know if the previus villian Kagatane is dead or not beacause i would see it as a waste if they just killed him off like that. feel freee to spoil i just want to know |

| Such a good ep! I really love the soundtrack and that hot pot scene was so hilarious!! xD *Enju and Satomi moving the table* hahhaha |

| That table moving scene was pretty damn funny. Seems as though my prediction of loli harem that Rentarou turns into an army to overthrow the loli-haters may well come true, too. morshuwarrior said: I;m just gonna say that this show has one of the worst settings ever.

I'm curious as to what you dislike about the setting, since I think it's rather interesting. If anything is wrong with it, I'd say it's that the show moves at too fast a pace to fully explain or naturally integrate into the story all the setting elements, but that seems like it's more of a pacing issue to me. xJapaliicious said: I must read the LN, as everyone says this is anime is rushed as fuck I haven't read the LNs and I also think this anime is rushed. Even if it were entirely anime original, I think it could benefit from a higher ratio of character-fleshing-out to plot progression than it currently has. I mean, they already seem to have defeated the first main villain and I still don't feel like we really got to know anyone aside from said villain, Rentarou, and Enju. This episode did a decent job of rectifying that, showing Kisara as someone who 1. has hobbies and interests outside her work and 2. apparently is interested in Rentarou romantically. It also gave Seitenshi-sama some depth by having her display her ideals. I tend to agree with Rentarou that she is the type of character who is likely to end up dead, although I really hope she doesn't. |

opondica said: Well, yeah, the story also feels very rushed but that's not why I think it's so bad. In the first episode, it looked like the setting was going to be a bit more like some sort of post-apocalyptic city with monsters crawling around everywhere. THAT would've been interesting, but nope, same old plain city even with schools. I just dislike how kids just go to school as if nothing dangerous is going on even though there clearly is. Perhaps I expected too much :/morshuwarrior said: I;m just gonna say that this show has one of the worst settings ever. It's becoming increasinly harder to take this show seriously.

It also doesn't help that I don't care for any of the characters (and a student council president... just, really). Not even Shiro Sagisu's musical talent saves it for me :( |
| The new blonde loli better not die. She is best loli ever!! =3 |
| Enju, what little time we saw her this week, was cute. The training bit at he beginning was cool, Kisara is rather hardcore with that sword and Enju dodging bullets and kicking the gun away was BA. The meeting with Tina was rather random and that special kind of silly/bland that makes it painful to watch. Rentaro was rather awesome in the bathroom when those D-Bag's tried to threaten him, though. That was nice, rather enjoyed that bit. Overall, I thought it was too slow and didn't follow up last week's episode at all. Last week's episode felt like a series finale, but left us with the information about Enju's possible forthcoming demise and questions about the tricycle. This week picks up with some random "hey I need a bodyguard for no reason other than I'm being selfish, oh! and there just happens to be an assassin I don't know about in town at the exact same time!" Overall, I'm gonna give this one a 5/10 |
| Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often. So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again. However, if you are interested in intelligent discourse, feel free to message me. |
| Tina Sprout is a cute name c: |
 |
| All of a sudden, a new harem member appears in the front door eh? She's kinda interesting, but I don't think she'll contribute that much in the overall plot; just your typical FF Cid XD Haven't read the LN yet, but from what I see, the direction and pacing in this episode is spot-on. |
| Rentaro getting all the bitches. |
| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| Much better pacing this episode than the past few episodes; didn't feel rushed at all. Though we still don't know much about Enju's % rate thing. New Loli appears! |

Hristmas said: What the hell... This anime had potential. What they've done with art and animation? When i watched this episode i felt like watching someone else's work. I'm disappointed. Really? I thought the art and animation was good. I never noticed any difference. That scene with Kisara and Miori. :D |
| I like how calm and cool Rentaro is in this episode; pretty badass MC, doesn't give a damn about 3 girls in his apartment nor fighting XD, how he handle the meeting with Saitake, and reacting quickly on that sniper shot. IDK how he noticed that already. Nice comment when he told Enju about her skirt in combat XD. I kind of know that Tina will turn bad at some point when I grown suspicious on her about that phone call. Although she is a pretty cool character. I'm up for Kisara and Rentaro relationship development, but I guess I need to grew more on her character background. Episode was a build up one, well the start of the new arc. It looks pretty interesting after the previous episode. |
| Need more Kisara btw. Also, Yuki Kaji is really doing a great job so far. |
 |
| So what, they are trying to assassinate Satomi because he took that dudes position as a gaurd? Nope, got to be way deeper than that. Really curious to what the real reason is though. |
| I really like Tina's character design... that hair... that dress... my god that dress is so pretty. Would love to see the Shiba style in action! Tina, please be a good girl! I really like you D: I also like the white hair president... she looks nice in that hat and dress, though I feel like her bodyguards are stupidly aggressive for no reason. |
| The harem is expanding rapidly. The logic in this show though... there was a sniper targeting your leader and instead of hurrying her to cover they just slowly walk in a group like asking to be shot. Also correct me if I'm wrong but that Saitake dude only governs the Osaka area, right? how does he get so cocky saying that his will is Japan's will? especially assuming that every city has their own ruler like Seitenshi. He's just being a megalomaniac for no reason. It's not like killing Seitenshi would accelerate his plans unless he can somehow establish a puppet ruler (which I doubt as long as Kisara's grandpa still around). |
 |
| Yep,this years spring season rules. |
 |
| And suddenly a Chaika appeared minus the way to speak. But it was also weird, what happened last episode seemed forgotten or something. It's like the 2nd season started or something. |

I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| This could be one of a kind anime, but the producers waste time on silly scenes than on intense scenes, like the (30 seconds) fighting... I mean, come oooon! the animation is perfect, the colors are so vivid, the "camera" plans are so cool, the OST is amazing WHY NOT HAVE A DESCENT SENARIO on each episode??? :/ |
 |
| Hah that moment when Enju wake up, just to say boob importance... Priceless :D Good episode and decent pace. |

| I think it's a good thing that Enju isn't trying that hard to get Rentarou (or so it seems). I wonder what choice Rentarou will do when he discovers who the assassin is. I wonder what type of Gastrea Tina is. A bat? Wolf... Owl? Would make sense as an owl, but she can't see that far, unless her eyes are the scopes of the rifles... I wonder. I think I'm starting to like Seitenshi this episode. I thought she just was a stubborn ruler of the Tokyo Area. Now that I think about it, when Enju said that Rentarou likes big books like Kisara, I was thinking about Enju's. She basically just said that Rentarou doesn't like her boobs... lol! |
| I miss the masked villain and his partner. TwT This new bad guy doesn't seem threatning at all. |
| Hated that whole scene where they were eating. The harem is growing. Why does this show have to suck so much? |
 |
| Seitenshi is so cute |
FrozenRemains said: Yep,this years spring season rules. I'm enjoying every anime on my list of ongoing anime to an extent, even the worse ones. OT: 'You know you liked it' :3 Enju, you're so cheeky. Enter, sleepy loli and another female after Rentaro's affection (he seems like those others that will reject them all though >_>). I liked Seitenshi's reaction to Enju's breast comment. Is it just me or does Seitenshi look kind of like Teletha Tessarossa from the Full Metal Panic series? Another problem that this anime with it's art style is that some of the people introduced you KNOW they're going to be bad news i.e. the bodyguard that tried to kill Rentaro and the dictator I can't remember the name of... |

| I was really feeling this show up until this episode. If this turns into an anime full of silly girls doing and saying stupid shit because of a "crush," it's dropped. I'll see how the next episode goes. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Kids shouldn't play with guns. |
 |
| Pretty good episode. I like the new girl. Way more calm then last episode. |
 |
| The plot and characters are enough to keep me entertained :) |
 |
| Ah much better than the last 2 shitty episodes. I really like Kisara's and Miori's designs they are quite different from the usual generic looking ones. Tina was cute ;) |
| Nice pacing in this episode. Lol at the scene with Tina. |
