@Triple R:

Unfortunately, I think you missed the point of VRO. I don't mean to insult fans of this show or what their tastes are, but really I can tell right from the bat after skimming through the episode (I was curious about the next Yoshino trainwreck k

) that VRO is "meant" to be a fanservice series that largely (though not all) caters to "lolicon fans" and in VRO's specific case "ass fetishists". The "plot" is just icing and is just a tack-on. You do not watch this show for action (at least serious action), though it is part of it. Everyone has a guilty pleasure and if this is theirs, then all means go watch it and enjoy it. Just don't go yelling to the rest of the anime community that such a show is the best series ever and you're meant to take it seriously

.

I know personally I'm not going to watch this series, but I'm not gonna go complain about it either. Now if say something like Fate/Zero had this kinda level of fanservice and nonsense, then yes I will be pretty mad too.
