Nicο Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 The story is set on a high school that the student council president Satsuki Kiryuuin rules by force. Wielding a giant Basami scissors sword, the wandering transfer student Ryuuko Matoi brings about upheaval on the campus. Ryuuko searches for the mysterious figure who caused her father's death, but confronting her are the student council's "four divine kings." Fortunately, Ryuuko is aided by a talking sailor uniform who tells her, "Wear me. When I am worn by you, this power will become manifest." Just so hype right now after finishing ep 1. I had already been more entertained by this than the entirety of Gurren Lagann before this even started airing and it did not disappoint. Discuss.

Legend Zero Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Watched the first episode. It is amazing.Animation style, characters, weapons, battles are all uncommon. Plot is basic revenge, but I think everything else makes up for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusion X. Denver Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I'm probably exaggerating a bit, but I do believe this was one of the best pilot episodes I've seen in a long time. The dynamic action, the characters' outrageous behaviors, the completely ridiculous setting, it's all makes this wonderfully cool package. I'll be following this with a passion.

mitchermitcher Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Trigger delivers yet again. First episode was essentially perfect for what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Zero Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I'm really expecting this to be the anime of the season. Nothing else seems like it will be as awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 This is in no way going to not be the most hyped, most popular, anime of the season. I'm actually going to like it too so that's a huge plus. Time will tell if it'll actually end up being my favorite though. Kyousougiga is sometimes almost as over the top, and there have already been some surprises. But I guess it is very likely to stay this awesome for the most part.

Sleepy Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 I wasn't sure about it since I couldn't get much info out of it's description to give me an idea of it. Though now that it's out and I've watched episode 1, it's hilarious. I'll be following it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleOnceCalledGod Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Another popcorn flick. Brain off while watching. TBH, they are trying too hard at times to get their audience (males) to fawn over it. Second episode title says so. Thank goodness we already had attack on titan, otherwise this would end up anime of the year just by whose making it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 That's just because absolutely everything about it is over the top. I honestly think it's always trying too hard, and yet I still find it to be awesome. I may have to turn my brain off to enjoy it, but at least I can enjoy it.

Legend Zero Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Episode 2 got all that fanservice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 [spoiler='Episode 3']I was hoping that they would move on to something different after this episode rather than what appears to be a fight after fight thing as she got to fight Kiryuin, but sadly not, it would seem.[/spoiler] The action is quite amazing, but the fanservice is somewhat excessive.

Sleepy Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 I like the silliness of it all and the exagerated animation, but if the fanservice keeps at the current level or goes up, it might be too much for me to stand, and from the looks of the opening, it doesn't seem like it's gonna tone down. I thought that the Kamui uniform being so revealing was gonna be a small fanservice joke, and that the clothes would keep evolving, covering her up more, and become more baddass as the show progressed, but I see no change so far.

Legend Zero Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 Yeah, the fanservice is way too much for me to consider this the best of the season, let alone the year. Probably going to watch the whole thing though, considering the battles are still top notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 3rd episode's battle, I felt like I've seen it a hundred times. First 2 episode's were epic, but that was just... meh. I'm not gonna disagree on the fanservice, because that's the way it's handling way too many things, but it's feeling less distasteful and more just plan boring for me, for various reasons. Still keeping up with a bit of comedy. Oh well, guess I'll just have to see. Just been one okay episode compared to two great ones for me thus far.

D.A._Sakuyamon Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Being the not so big on anime person I am, I decided just this once to try a hyped anime out. Unsurprising to me, I didn't like it. The animation we're far and beyond to my liking. :\ The concept also just seemed bleh. No offence of course.

The animation we're far and beyond to my liking. :\ The concept also just seemed bleh. No offence of course. Personally speaking, I think it was a bad choice to pick up this one as the "I'm gonna give anime a chance" shot. I'm a big fan of anime, but I wasn't really expecting much of this one from the beginning. It's funny over the top, which is entertaining for me, and the animation does flow well, but.... Did you see the summary of the anime prior to watching it? Before it's air date, the only info about it was "she fights and unspecified stuff happens between those 2". The only goal it has is defeating a character that pretty forcedly lets her go everytime. Out of this studio, I'm mainly waiting for their Witch Academia, which is not exactly original, but I have a thing for witches and magic, and it's the opposite of this show in terms of fanservice. That said, I do kinda like the hilariousness of Kill la kill, but not in a serious enough way to reach my tops list. Maybe you should ask for recommendations at a status or something? =0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'v been getting reviews of ep.s from a few youtubers I watch along with well here so I decided to give it a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I was debating whether or not to finish Gurren Lagann before watching this. For some reason I thought it was in the same universe, and I'm not sure whether I'm right or wrong about that. But oh my god, this anime is awesome. I can say that while I don't mind fanservice in the slightest, this is the most badass form of it I've ever seen. And while the plot is about as shallow as it gets, the action and the characters, both good and bad, make up for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
