Maybe Misaki will be an important character later... one of my wildest idea is that she is a high level breaker, but nobody knows about this, then she will touch a LP by chance and there she is, the hidden ace of the show

i dont think this is really a harem. I mean he will get more girls attracted to him as the series goes, but he's already declared himself to rose so its not like there's any mystery to whom he loves. I'd be more annoyed if it was a harem like IS, god i fcking hate that main character

tsunade666 · 2011-02-08, 12:37

It it will a harem if you view it in a way that many girls like the main guy. But Ryuuji already like Rose and engage skill proves that or at least those two like each other but isn't that proof enough?

But it looks like Marga isn't giving up and she even initial a final attack that really shook up Ryuuji. (funny and great reaction Ryuuji) If Marga can't win yet in feelings then she will go aggressive and declare it herself. I like her character. She doesn't hesitate to say she loves Ryuuji.

Then here is Misaki. I also kinda like her but her character set up is getting to old. The childhood friend that likes the main guy. But here the childhood friend is just getting ignored. Or Misaka isn't doing anything that will make Ryuuji notice her. So how will she even expect for Ryuuji to notice her.

The next episode is finally showing up my most favorite character in dragon crisis

Manic · 2011-02-08, 12:54

haha before i even watched a single ep of this the wolf girl looked like the most fun/interesting character. I hope i am right

Malkuth · 2011-02-08, 13:18

^^ I love her eyes

The way I see it, they could have gone one of two routes with what they set up in episode four: George struggles with his reasons for fighting and upon either tragedy or self reflection decides that they are not worth killing over or George and Maruga become a modern version of the dragon and human from the legend. The writer played with the former and then decided to abandon it by making George a victim of mind control, seemingly going for the allusion to the legend described in the latter, but then abandoned that by essentially putting George on the bus and making Maruga blatantly unsuccessful romantic rival #2.

Should have picked one direction and stuck with it.

I join the chorus asking what's the point of Misaki? She gets no screen time unless she's being rejected. Schadenfraude? Is the unlucky childhood friend just another element of wish fulfillment in harem anime that allows male viewers to laugh at a situation that more commonly happens to them than to females(Hah! How do you like it when you're in the friend zone!)?

Personally, I enjoy seeing her every time, whether she ever gets accepted or not. But I always like these overlooked ordinary girls, for some reason.

It's because they're objectively pretty great girls. If the genre staples didn't demand it, they could easily find much more interesting guys to be with. I mean, we all saw her in that bathing suit right?

Oh, and has anyone noticed that the Dragon crisis Op sounds like a Jamaican Dancehall song?

The first parts of the OP sounds exacly like the beats from this video:

Well, +1 for the harem. The ending was funny. Rose knew exactly what she was thinking. I do hope Marga returns.

Yeah, I didn't like how that was handled either. But they used the mind control to keep George a nice guy. It would have stunk if he really turned into a bad guy. Not that it matters since we probably won't see him again. I think he would have made a nice addition to the team, being a mentor figure for Ryuji (but then we'd have to see him die, right? haha).

I do feel bad for her. It sucks that she isn't an assertive girl, otherwise she'd put pressure on him. I guess she is just comic relief.

it's basically that.

I find that highly unlikely but not improbable. I was thinking that she is like his link to normal life that he seems to want.

I can KIND of hear it, but it's just a slight coincidence, I'm sure.

Tenshi_ · 2011-02-12, 10:52

Just want to ask, what is the name of this OST??

I really like it a lot :P

And also, can anyone tell me the release date for Dragon Crisis! OST??

It's unfortunate that this seems to be the case. It seems awkward to give a character just enough screen time to make them slightly sympathetic at first, only for them to get slotted into the role of buttmonkey. Glad I'm not the only one who wasn't sure what to make of that.

Now that I think about it, it's a nice break from watching all this unassertive & dense male characters, for a change they swapped the sex, far more common IRL

Kinku · 2011-02-13, 05:34

Breaker? Is it a ability to able to use magic items?

tsunade666 · 2011-02-13, 08:05

that part isn't been explained yet completely but it looks like its the ability to use the lost precious or curse precious and the level itself is reflecting the percentage on how much power you can drew from the item.

Midonin Last Engage Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Florida	Spoiler for Doradora 06 - Gai-Rei -Zero-: While I'm still not certain how Ai gets her wolfish powers, she makes an interesting addition to the cast. A thief, but like many thieves, not without her honor. Furumori, maybe not as much. The revelation that Eriko has been hoarding booze isn't entirely surprising. That Rose has mastered the art of hovering a few inches off the ground, somewhat more surprising. She'll be a full fledged dragon soon enough. Ryuuji, count another one for your harem.
