Spoiler for Episode 1 Prolog:

Where did all that mass murder stuff come from? And #08 Yume saved baby Minato from some secret laboratory? None of that has been in the manga yet, right? They have not even started the show and they are already making stuff up?

Hmmm... have to see where they go with that.

Spoiler for answer:

The mass murder thing was shown in a flashback from Black sekirei but the thing about the baby wasn't.
I guess they are giving out too much hints already but it will only become significant when we get there so don't worry so much
But it is worrying that they changed some stuff like how Musubi was winged with this being the first ep and all...

I... love this anime.

I watched the first episode, realized there was a manga, and sat down from 6:00 in the morning to about 11:00 reading every chapter available.

And now, I can say this is one of my favorite animes/mangas of all time.

If only for two reasons...

One. All the women are hot (Except for Ku, but that's given). There's always been animes, in harem animes, where each and every single girl is great save for one... This bypasses it. Each one is awesome. [spoiler removed by a moderator]. I thought I'd hate Glasses (Haven't taken time to learn names yet besides my favorites) but even she turned out hot as hell.

Now that I've ruined my credibility, here's my second reason.

The main character isn't fucktarded.

Like, having watched Kanokon and to love ru has made me jaded, but he isn't like "OMG GO AWAY". He... my god, he's just not a complete idiot. I could rant forever about this...

I can't wait to see how the anime developes. I <3 Kaze.

@SemperMalum

I made this mistake myself once but you can't post manga spoilers in the fansubbed topic.

I'm definitely going to have to read the Volumes again.

I have to wonder what will happen later though, because if I remember right only one can win, so Minato's harem might be under threat of being taken by MBI.

Spoiler for possible flamebait:

What a plotless crappy mess. "fanboy wankfest" sums this up nicely. I wish the minutes spent watching this failure could be returned to me...

[Deathkillz]

Haha...well this series probably isn't for you then so you are better off dropping it if the first ep ticked you off so much

As for the rest of us, we will enjoy the plot when it gets there :3

[DmonHiro]

@Edgewanker: You're better off not watching episode 2 then, as you might actually implode

Me, Im looking forward to episodes 2 and beyond. I want my Ku-chan and Tsukiumi (my imouto and wife).

Hope that 7arcs keep the budget high for the action scenes. But what I'm REALLY curious is if they will keep the comedy moments, like the "Did you catch a cold" during Homura's battle

That's more than unlikely. The opening episode for many series usually have better animation than the rest of the following episodes. Considering the genre, I don't think the animation will get any better than this.. and I'm also sure most of the remaining episodes won't match the level of animation (animation quality score for episode one = 6/10) displayed in episode 1. I suppose the lack of it will be compensated by fanservice which is perfectly fine with me for I'm in it for fanservice. Any other honest person in the thread?

Spoiler for For those watching:

Is it every otaku's dream to wake up with some chicks big boob in his hand or be smothered in some girl's glorious rack at an inoppurtune moment?

*Raises hand*
If you just take a look at StrikerS...oh the animation nightmares from that series
This is fine though for those who only stare at the character's middle area ~ at least that is "quality budget" being spent

Of course, it doesn't necessarily preclude possible sequels, as always. That's what you'd normally expect for shows that start in the Summer (they're almost all 1-cur shows), but just an update.

Damn I was hoping for two cours

Yeah I really like Hayami Saori and she's doing a pretty good job with Musubi making me like her more.

So far, so good. But still no Tsukiumi in the next episode.

[molitar]

Well I started reading the manga after I first saw the preview trailer and was expecting to see all the fanservice guess the ones saying too much fanservice definitely hasn't read the manga. It does seem to be censored for tv tho because the boobies are barbie doll type with no nipples when she is naked but when clothed you definitely can see them much like many other anime's tend to do. Guess we can be glad they haven't censored it too much and will be really great when it's dvd version is released. Now bring on the boobies!

I will die if they keep that line since its one of my favs


I actually dont mind the fanservice, actually it seemed they toned it down a bit from the manga (and I dont mean the editing either). But then again we havent seen a big battle yet, thatll be an indicator.

[Garet Jax]

Does anyone know if there's anything different about the Yesy release from normal H264 files? I can't even click on it without it pegging my CPU and locking up my Windows explorer, doing nothing apparent beyond giving a message about "ActiveMovie" not responding.

I'm in for Tsukiumi! How that for honest opinion

[nadare]

Whoa this show is less fanservicy than I thought it would. Just my kind of anime.

Spoiler:

Whoa they actually showed Yume saving Musubi I think they didn't show that on the manga?

[BookOfMages]

Musubi is both cute and lulzy, one of the firsts time I've taken to liking a character who has such hueg boobs, but she is adorable.

Minato's okay, I don't hate him, but at the same time, doesn't sparkle my excitement.

[Cyz]

Somehow, Musubi on this one is a little matured than her manga counterpart. Lol! at the oversize breasts

Spoiler for Ep. 2:

OMG, Miya, the demon lady's introduction

[TrueKnight]

Worthless male lead surrounded by multiple chicks with different 'attributes'. As an avid reader of the manga, it pleases me because seems this show is quickly reaching for its own sub-forum. I could've sworn that I saw around 3000 downloads a while back at animesuki.

Clutzy moeblob, Tsundere, Loli, Megane, Cross-gender and I mean it literally, that this show had them all.

As for the show itself, the fight scenes between Musubi and the thunder girls are beautifully animated. Props to 7 Arc.

you left out the sexy older woman

i also hope this series gets its own subforum haha

[Westlo]

If this gets a sub forum the Tsukiumi character discussion thread will have more posts than the rest combined.
