Saw it on CR and wow, interesting story. And I love the surreal fantasy style.

Spoiler for ep1:

Nvis · 2017-07-08, 09:43

I like the "Dream Masters" (witches) design. Hope they are all as hawt.

Dop · 2017-07-14, 09:55

Spoiler for episode 2:

Could be more episodic than I'd expected, with the dream world being the linking element.

Nvis · 2017-07-14, 20:04

I hope they get to say why MC is in the dream world? Looks like he's stuck in it, too.

MC also building up a harem in the real world.

Spoiler for ep 2:

SeaDoor · 2017-07-15, 14:35

Wow! The second episode was even more interesting than the first. I believe I'll be watching this series.

shmaster · 2017-07-20, 02:25

First episode I was like.. wha?

And now I am following this with the MC betraying the expectations in a very good way.
They completely changed MC's personality from the game, and I must say this is a wonderful change.
Who could have thought, who could have thought!!!

xeviouses · 2017-07-20, 05:26

Still don't know what to think of this one. I guess I need one more episode to decide.

Liked how the MC didn't go the usual 'killing is wrong!' route though.

SeaDoor · 2017-07-22, 20:27

Episode 3 was a big change in tone from the previous episode, quiet and sad. I still can't get a handle on what this series is about but intend to keep following it because it has engaged my curiosity.

shmaster · 2017-07-26, 04:16

What's with the sudden change in how the characters are drawn?

Though, I am liking how they are doing a completely different theme each episode.
The ED is once again very nice too.

OK, so I wasn't going crazy. When I watched episode three last week, I thought the same thing.

shmaster · 2017-07-28, 22:10

This week's episode... is not much.

They didn't handle the "she is actually obese without herself knowing" the angle well enough.

serenade_beta そのおっぱいで13才 Join Date: Dec 2006	Spoiler for ep1: I'm... not really sure what to think about it. It definitely just threw the audience into the middle of everything, never the most brilliant of decisions, and I'm not even sure they will explain what is going on. Some guy (who was chill enough until he decided to lecture the girl ) sleeping and building a harem without having to do anything in real life, so that when he wakes up, he wakes up to a harem? It wasn't that bad once I figured out what was generally happening. That said, I thought this was a Gonzo original and was quite disappointed to learn that it was based off some mobile game. How could that go wrong? (sarcasm) __________________ -Blog --> http://tdnshumi.blogspot.com/ (Mainly about video games) -R.I.P.

Dop Mmmm.... Join Date: Sep 2006	Spoiler for episode 2: OK, the second episode seemed more interesting (not to mention more bloody) than the first, with a girl wreaking vengeance on her family's killers through the dream world to the real world. Also, we get to see the cat guy in action in reality. Could be more episodic than I'd expected, with the dream world being the linking element.

Freeter beyond Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: in the club	Spoiler for ep 2: That was surprisingly refreshing. Expected the MC to do the usual pep talk to the witch, but nope, he helps her give those bastards the cruel punishment they deserved. This might turn out to be the anti-Bakemonogatari where the MC gets to charm his supernatural haremettes instead of being their punching bag __________________
