@Blainely Lol, half the success of Love Live and Bandori built on this. So, who wants, that ship them, and who doesn't want, just doesn't care about shiping and sees "lovely interaction between super female friends". The idea of ​​Japanese marketing is quite intuitive.

Yeah well fanservice sells alot no matter how some things are the opposite in narrative we're used to that XD.

Well, ship war can be quite hot, even if the authors did not imply any subtext, but I always thought that was normal if everyone had their own opinion. The main thing is not to be toxic.

This is quite the relaxing anime! It's healing me... ^ ^
I have watched it 3 times now.
I can't wait for it to resume again.

I also love that Lou girl's voice. So cute!

I literally feel like every single female character who even is relevant is gay and has feelings for anne, or at least one the supporting ones will. I_I

Oh yeah and there will be dead and\or shitty parents, would give this a 5 or 6 out of 10.

With this alongside the one about the author and the cat, I think this is gonna be a really sweet and cheerful season. As for the actual show, I thought the fanservice was a bit heavy handed for the tone it's trying to go for, but otherwise, looking forward to the rest.

A bit of leg and a second of cleavage. That's hardly fan service. Regardless the episode was super boring, don't think I'll bother with the rest.

If you don’t want it, you can still see it as an romantic friendship's anime. As mentioned above, this is not a canonical romantic anime, but the whole yuri bait is definitely deliberate.

If you guys don't know this is a spin off of shingeki no bahamut adapted from the game rage of bahamut. So this isn't anything special or a masterpiece

I just want to see Grea animated.

Grea is adorable. Same with Anne.

Yeah, this feels very different from the previous Shingeki no Bahamut shows. On the other hand, it still retains some of the fantasy elements so that's something. So far, I definitely got some laughs from the humorous moments.

I like this first episode, Anne is a very animated princess and with incredible talent in magic, she managed to seal the enraged guardian and freeze part of the library.
Grea is very cute and feminine, I love how shy she is, maybe it's because Anne is the only one who speaks to her and Anne is a bit enthusiastic, but I like the friendship they have, it's quite adorable.
I loved the character design, very well done the details too, example of that was when Gea and Anne were preparing to start their day. The animation is of good quality and I do not seem to notice any detail, the OST was to my liking and made me feel inside the school.
In short I love this anime, also has yuri vibes very nice and Grea is best girl, I love shy girls.

Wasn't planning on watching this, but is 10 episodes/15 minutes, so why not?, haven't seen any SNB anime, but that shouldn't be a problem.

No comment on the end card yet?

Gender-bend Favaro and Kaisar looking cute...
I don't expect justice. I expect revenge, even if it solves nothing in the end.
I don't expect redemption. I expect decadence and self destruction.
I don't expect compassion. I expect selfishness.
I don't expect people making choices. I expect a cruel fate forced upon them.

remember this was suppose to come out ages ago ever since the granblue event with them Grea became a fan favorite in the GBF community at the time i didn't even know they also were apart of the bahamut series.


it was cute and relaxing glad Owen is still in wonder how much of a plot focus this will be or if it'd just be full on SoL being 15mins and 10 episode long

You mean to tell me that this project got delayed for like two years only to be presented as this? A yuri-bait slice of life fanservice show with no real plot or some form of a narrative? I'd rather have a season 3 of the RoB series. What a waste of money.
Don't believe the hype.

So is this Mysteria Friends or Manaria Friends?

Anyway as much as I loved Genesis and the other one I didn’t expect much from this seeing a 6 so was presently surprised how nice it looked, even has a Harry Potty vibe too it and Elves which is great.

Long 15 minute episode but will keep watching.

For the kind of anime this is this had strangely high production values. The show looks good in terms of art and animation and the OST is pretty good as well.

Both actually.

Manaria was localized as Mysteria in the english version of Rage of Bahamut card game and stayed that way ever since.

Surprisingly nice art, character designs & that fancy ost. They lots of budget so spent it on tons of wind and Grea's tail.
It's a bit calm... too calm, besides the "friendship" & Anne intro there's not much even in the short 14min.
Lol Favaro & Kaiser looking great.

Dang, it's too bad we needed the first half of the episode for a totally essential and not at all slow and boring pile of fanservice shots and yuri-bait chatter so we didn't have time to actually show the fight scene! /s

It feels like a yuri anime with furry elements.

Boring start and annoying characters.

Not gonna lie, I started watching this just because of Grea. I absolutely love her character design. However, I found the combination of a dragon tail with a mini skirt rather... risky? I can swear her butt can be easily seen at the slightest movement but well, since this is anime, such logic can be forgotten.

Regarding the episode, it was a decent one. We got a bit of insight into both girls' personalities and their relationship inside the academy. Not to mention that the production values were also surprisingly good for this kind of series.

Overall, it seems this anime won't be any memorable one but at least for me, it'll be an enjoyable experience since I don't have high expectations to begin with.
