A solid 1 for me.

wtf...the episode 5 is already out?:twitch:

yes and it's no good, atleast I don't think so. "Why did they rush through the Wales arc, when they can waste an entire episode on this?", is what I'm asking myself right now.

wait for about 20 minutes... i really wanna know if its that bad....

well..i have to say... em... it was less funny and less romantic then the episode 4... but still... there has to be a story, right? i will give it 8/10

It's not that bad at all. Some animation was on the worse side, but the story in itself continues to keep me interested :) ... I'll be gracious and give an 8.

Surprise: They continue to give Siesta a nasty streak. For the second time in a row she's fingering Saito to take the blame for one of her OWN initiatives. Hmm...

Looking forward to the next ep, the preview is looking quite interesting.

i agree...the humour in this ep is lesser than that of ep 4 ~

WTF the story is worse than


they are going really fast its like 1 novel per ep. The 1st season was way better.
ill rate it 7 they might make it better in the next ep

This episode was a bit annoying to me because of the plot device (the star stamp), which conveniently bring another "awkward fanservice".

Frankly, i believe the excellent comedy part last week was enough, and the plot is really dragged awfully.
I'm kinda interested about what the "culprit" was doing, and their motive, but aside of this, i felt this episode kinda weak, and too much "deja vu".

again, siesta got another "iffy" change in this ep, and i'm really concerned about the development of the characters. (c'mon saito... you were expecting eleanor for "this"? and especially being able to survive if she find out?)

I hope the next episode will quickly put set the main plot in motion, because this was probably a definite filler episode...

Regardless of how good or bad this episode has been, I think it's to set some space between Wales' arc and the next episode (keep in mind that this season only has 13 episodes as well). I would personally find the flow of the story in the next episode very unnatural if they had prolonged Wales' story by jumping the last couple of episodes.

Why couldn't this season be 24 episodes long? :rolleyes:

I only meant this one, episode 3 was ok, barely if you ask me, and I quite enjoyed episode 4. This episode however was completely without any meaning. You can skip it without losing anything. The plot was retarded, the jokes lame and the execution as bad. A complete waste of time.

^

As long as Chi-nee-sama is in it, I'm ok with the episode. :love:

I'm still quite surprised by how different Seista is this time around. Her scene in this episode shows what i mean --- still, it was rather cute/funny. & i'm glad we got a little bit more out of Agnes. <3

Oh yes, that looks like a classic ZnT episode if you ask me.

Siesta was definetly, more, let's say aggressive in this episode :heh: At first I thought the culprit would be that green haired secretary women from the 1st season. Never thought it would be Michielle

＼(^o^)／ オワタ

Another prime example of an uninspired anime original.
Every episode they waste on fillers like this means less coverage for the main plot, which means more rushing later.

I guess this was never an adaptation to begin with, but a "novel inspired animation" instead. It's obvious the staff doesn't give a crap about the novel, and only includes critical events from the novel to keep things from going completely off track.

They could've easily used novel events from volume 5 and 6 if they wanted to put something between Wale's ending (vol.4) and the war (latter vol.6), such as the story about how Kirche and Tabitha first met, and the holiday in Tristania event with Saito and Henrietta (although it seems they're going to do that next week, judging from the ponytail Henrietta in the preview). It's true that some of the events are unsuited for the anime (dialogue only events, for example), but I can't understand why they would choose to make mediocre anime original episodes when they could've easily picked something relevent from the novel instead.

And Siesta is still a bitch.

omg cant wait till next episode =O

i know it may be to early to think about but with these "filler" ep and only 12 or 13 ep this season would there be a 3rd season? Anyway this ep was ok but not great. Next ep I read what happend in novel so im hoping it follows the story line there and don't just completly kill it.

I thought we get to see her nakeid and Saito gets some royal treatment :D

imao royal treatment:heh:

Louise is just looking for reasons to beat Saito over, isn't she? :) . Even though it was revealed Saito was just assisting in the mission, Louise still took it as if he was still guilty of all of those things and used her new whip. On top of that, look at the disappointed face she gives whenever she is interrupted before an attempted whipping session. Yep, she's definitely into the S&M.
