Wow, really fun anime. That was one of the best I've seen in a while. The only thing that prevented me from giving this episode a perfect score was Yoshida's line at the end about round two or whatever...honestly, I think Shana won after that big epic mess. I don't like when animes do that.

Anyway yeah, very good anime. I'll watch the 2nd season later, but I'm not too keen to start it so soon, since this season had a satisfying ending.

Good anime, with a pleasant ending. Looking forward to see the sequel and hopefully Sakai will be able to take a hint this time and actually make a move.

Also I hope Wilhelima and her "de-ariamus" or whatever it is drowns herself. That is all.

Overall 8/10 series for me.

Well, I am disappointed with the ending, I actually hoped Shana will sacrifice herself and then Sakai and Yoshida will live happily everafter ;p Nah, that would be quite lame, I guess. Another thing that bothered me were the last lines about "round 2", like saving the whole city and Sakai's life wasn't enough to settle these things.
Don't mind my bitchin, I really liked the series, the last episodes were really enthralling.

Ending was good, but it would have made more of an impact if they actually both died while walking into that door. Actually, they could have just stopped the animation right at the resulting explosion, and the result would have been more poetic.

But then they wouldn't be able to make a second season...

Although, looking at it (the second season), I'm kinda wishing they did that ^^

Okay it really was disturbing seeing Shana's underwear like that every 5 sec in the first battle, what the heck was up with that?? Don't know about you guys but I'm a girl and I wouldn't like seeing a male character's underpants showing aroud like that *yuck*

Anyways, I don't get why they should have died. I know that would have been the logical thing to happen, but I love happy endings too much to complain over logic ^_^.

Good season overall. Gonna be watching season 2 pretty soon :P.

I can see how they tried hard to be original and not follow in the footsteps of many other anime. I seriously expected Wilhelmina and margery to both be defeated and shana'd have to overcome the three herself, feeling overwhelmed yuji would confess his feelings and she'd get some new found strength and kick all their asses. But in the end not a single person was harmed. Not even the scientist haha. On to season 2!

I has expecting better for a 8/10 rated anime :/
for me it doesn't deserve more than 5/10, somehow this shows remind me of Bleach (random creepy looking characters + random events)

the end was ok I suppose, but the serie kept being random with a classic one-sided love triangle.

Hmm, so what do I say to something that is utterly formulaic, yet follows that formula so darn well? Is there a prize for best utterly generic show? Maybe I'm being a bit too harsh and generous at the same time, 'twas good entertainment and a suitable ending.

aww how cute they holding dem hands together ~de arimasu

funny how they kinda defeat the enemy like the others by just throwing an object at them lol (ex: the glass at the puppet guy, sword at the incest boy)

I enjoyed it 7/10 time for season 2

Holy crap, now wasn't that a huge explosion. Since the moment that Tenpa Jyousai was mentioned I feared that Shana will be forced to use it :/ When she did, I was so sure that she passed away (Yep, and I almost cried, too)... But hell, you can't describe my joy when it turned out that they survived and that Yuuji peeped on her again... Urusai, urusai, urusai! :3

Decent ending -- satisfying enough. Not "absolutely amazing" or anything mind-boggling, but I didn't expect it to be. Still, it was a good series.

Only "good" though. 7/10 for me. It just took a long time to build up and is lacking something... (Maybe lacking the ability to leave me feeling like "WHOA that was AWESOME!" in any episode. XD) Still entertaining!

i think yuuji maybe didn't remember at first that he had the ring on.

anyway, loved it, i don't loathe wilhemina as much anymore, lol. just pissed though, i mean, wtf? no kiss? ike! win yoshida! keep that skank away from yuuji! lol, definetley watching the second season.

hmmm this made me wonder....
- Did Yuuji jump in knowing he was going to be ok because of the ring?
- Did Yuuji actually heard her saying she love him... or he just smile and node as he walk her to her doom?

Yuuji proved to be a tit and he couldn't even give her a kiss at the end (or a hug... or shake a hand, not just sit there). And after all the events he should at least make things straight with Kazumi. Then again if all this would have happen 2nd Season would be pointless.

Very entertaining 8/10
huh?

Well, this was definitely a good watch. The story took its time to pick up but when it did it was pretty exciting. However, there were some things that I'd like to see explained. Like what those guys wanted to do with all that power of existence. And what the power of existence really is. The first guy wanted that power to make his Rinne exist. That makes sense. Anything more than that isn't evident and if there was any explanation, I somehow missed it. I don't think they even explained what turning the city into "a pool of existence" means (besides the obvious destruction of the city). Either way, it was an enjoyable anime, especially the characters' interactions and it did have a great ending. I wish I had watched this back when it was airing because I seriously thought Shana would die when she used the Tenpa Jyousai. That is, if I didn't know there was a second season. Overall, I give this one a 8/10.

pretty good anime.

but i found yuuji and yoshida are so annoying . At least yuuji has redeeming quality , but yoshida . i hope someone kill her maybe in the second or third season .
Shana is badass though .

oh and the artwork , not it's bad , it just reminded me of a bad anime called school something.

7 / 10 , would like to give 8 but yoshida make me want to puke sometimes.

Marathon is over, it's after 4:00 and I have an online meeting at 9:00--but it was worth it! Good ending, and it looks like the romantic pot will be bubbling for everyone next season. I just have marathon season 2 and specials before season 3 starts in a couple of weeks.

i was pleased with the ending. the only real character who got on my nerves in this entire series was yoshida. my god was she a bother but at least she was actually needed for shana's development. i just didn't really like her, so i guess it's not too bad. definitely a good series, i'll be starting up the second season soon.

So.... I reeeaaally enjoyed the episode, but I seem to not understand why every time someone confesses their love to Yuuji, he just stands there with a stupid grin on his face not saying anything for god knows how long. That's just unbearably awkward for anyone involved or even watching. If I did that, I'd be considered a jerk, so why is he doing that to Shana of all people?

lol

Oh well. (Now off to the 2nd season!)

Alright ending, I suppose. Yoshida annoyed me with her "round two" nonsense. She saved his life and the city (maybe even world) for Christ's sakes, woman.

6/10. Time to start the second season soon.

Come on Yoshida die already! I mean she is nice and stuff and I know a rival was needed, but this is going too far. She is such a b1tch, it is so clear that Shana has won. She saved not only Yuuji and the city but probably the world by almost sacrificing herself. She is probably one of the reasons I'm not going to give this an anime a higher score, she is way too annoying.
Apart from that brat I really liked this show. Shana is pretty awesome and I will surely put her on my favorites. Most of the other characters were nothing really special, but Shana made me forget about all of them. Yuuji was also very dumb at times (mainly for not realizing Shana's feelings), but I'm happy he didn't became another Shiro Emiya (from Fate/Stay night).
The other thing that made me take away from the score is the slow story. When you think about it nothing really special happened until the end of the season, The action scenes made up for some of them however.

Overall I had a lot of frustration (Yoshida's obnoxiousness), but I still very much enjoyed the series mainly for the action and the relationship between Shana and Yuuji. So this anime gets an 8 from me. Hope to see more in season 2.
