Also in that episode where finea (her sister) came, she acknowledged that those who are summoned must obey the summoner, even if he is just a human.

A part of me believes that Eitarou just LOVEs to get hurt
Either that or he just pretends to be in pain

Still as great as he...he is terribly weak against hard gay XD

Seems like I have to rewatch the series!

Spoiler:

Whoa! The Angel of Death? Grim Reaper? Both good and evil? Equatable with Satan/Lucifer? That's the last person that I expected him to be

But it would explain why he can pwn BOTH Agarin and Gabriel.

She meets Takuto first so in my book of harems, she's the shoe in, but at the end she is regulated to a cook. I wanted her to be wife #4.

And if the ending is correct

Spoiler:

Tanarotte is really more of his incest sister and Suzuho would probably be the real wife.

Spoiler:

WHo knows? But to me, Tanarotte and Suzuho (and Falce) feels more like his extended family rather than his pool of love interest.

Tanarotte is the daughter that he created, Suzuho is his... Well, cousin.

Actually, maybe that's why he's a human now. He's sick of the boring life as an (Fallen?) Angel.

Sure it's fun to see Takuto and his harem fighting over him and messing up stuff in the process, but Eitarou is just far more interesting than him. I mean IMO an episode without the guy is quite boring. Besides this season never really explained anything about him, though some of us figured out that he is

Spoiler for Sakuma Eitarou's real identity:

Samael/Samaer or basically the Angel of Death, etc..

We still dont know his background story, like why he came to the academy, why & how he became a human, how he got Eine to obey him despite his perverted nature, his student life lol, and his harem It would be quite interesting to see if Miyabi and Sync will fight over him and Eine getting jealous about it. Wouldn't also hurt if his harem increases

Don't need a second season, an OVA would do the trick just for that

But I doubt they would do that, seeing as how they're keeping Eitarou as the most mysterious person in the whole show.

Actually he didn't become human, he is just disguised as on
But onto the subject of Angels and demons not being "creative", I think the meaning doesn't include small things like "making a manga lolol". Rather creation as in giving birth? Or at least creating an existance. The reason why they pissed themselves when Takuto awoke is because he has the power to create existances that disrupt the balance of "angel and demon" divinity or whatever

Seriously this series needs more than an OVA

LOVE & PEACE!

[Secca]

Yeah an OVA would be too short. There are so many characters and so much material they can work with in this series. ^^

I can understand how he feels. I like boys love between bishounens for instance Eitarou and Takuto. But I don't think I can handle hard gay for example Jojo Bizzare adventure. Eeep, I just imagined it. >_<

Actually i little sad when this anime finish...
*Hope for another season or OVA...*

Spoiler for pic:

Here's hoping George finds love elsewhere

OVA?? Pssh this series needs a second season! Where will I get my Falce from???

More stuff on Eitarou

Spoiler:

I dont think that he got bored but maybe just decided to take a break from the whole Angel of Death thing Besides he needs some time to draw his manga.

Seriously Eitarou was my fav character (though I fanboygirled over Falce the most) just cuz one he's hilarious, two unpredictable and three mysterious. I need more of him as well

[Midonin]

The 5pb. Records site updated with the tracklist for the OST, and on there is a track titled "Love&Peace!". I'm very certain of what that one is.

It would be certainly nice to see more WAsshoi madness.
But I dont know how this will be happening, I get the feeling that this particular anime isn't the one of the most popular ones.

Don't forget that if the Principal can take a break from being the 'top' so can eitarou.

Don't forget that the DVD's when they come out are uncensored...goodbye puppets and gray skin.

I am quite certain that in episode 5 Eitarou says that he was a student at that academy 20 years ago. He was also shown as a youngster and not adult.

This anime was awesome funny especially Hapsiel.
Oh god give me a break from him and then give me a full show with him as the main char
It will kill me but till death I will laught.

REVIEW TIME

Macademi Wasshoi (MW) is a parody of various genres and clichés and a newcomer would have a hard time understanding the jokes. But even veterans will most likely find that the overall anime lacks depth or that has nothing serious to care about it in the longrun.

The whole series plays out mostly as slapstick / ecchi with rather chibi looking characters, lively animation and perky voice acting that in effect makes the erotic humor look bolder and funnier. I have seen a similar treatment in Mahoujin Guruguru and Dragon Half and I know it can work just fine. But then again those oldies were a lot more subtle and better planned than MW, which is completely chaotic and lewd. This is practically what ruins it too; there is no seriousness amongst all this wackiness which turns every event, no mater how serious it appears, to feel like a passing itch. Buildings blow up, demons are summoned, hundreds of people are thrown around like ants and nobody cares in the least. If there were restrictions and punishments for every havoc they unleash onto the world, this whole mess would feel a lot more interesting. Some overall plot and objective would help too.

So anyways, the story is about the archetypical loser male making a failed summon and ending up with a super cute and super powerful girl who is madly in love with him. He also has a female cousin with a similar fascination with him and they both end up living in his house. Later on, more girls are added as well, making a joke out of every hentai cliché you can think of. They also blow up buildings and cause mass hysteria every 5 minutes but that seems to not mater after another 5 minutes pass. I find it hard to write anything else about the setting, as it is completely random and the only way to enjoy it is to figure out what it’s making fun of at every turn. Other than that, no overall plot or interesting characters… apart form perhaps Hapsiel, the hard gay angel. Do you believe he has a Flash Gordon music theme and a Rose of Versailles ending dedicated just for him?

As for the humor part, I admit I was laughing a lot with the constant references and parodies at first. But after episode 5 (which is by far the funniest of them all) the quality in jokes and storytelling drops further and further to the point it becomes a complete random pile of average slapstick and lukewarm ecchi. So I say the show is fine up until the first half but then grows stale and bored with its own setting.

As for the actual humor, it is heavy on lewd otaku culture and it is really relevant how long you will find the whole sexploitation of tropes interesting to follow before randomness takes the better of you. It is bold and honest at how a typical otaku perceives erotic clichés but even so it can’t remain funny for 12 whole episodes without something extra to keep you interested. And unfortunately MW not only lacks substance but even loses the initial semi-interest it had while getting to know the characters and the setting in the first half. It had a somewhat basic but effective narrative focused on a specific theme and objective on each episode. In the second half, all that fade away as nothing really new is introduced and everything is just random jokes.

In a few words, it starts out as very good and after 5 episodes it becomes utter boredom. So no pass from me; it gave up at the point of no return.
