I'm getting serious IS vibes from this, from the world full of plot holes to the length of contrivance the author is willing to go to just to use the archetypal high school setting rather than thinking up a more imaginative one. I've seen worse, and if you like this then that's totally cool. But I don't see that much effort was put into it a all and if I'm wrong, the fruits of that labour have yet to be born. Pointing out the awfulness of your writing is so common these days it could hardly be called clever. You know what would be clever? Better writing. |

Please actually state 'what does not make sense.'
A 'cliche' trigger, (is it actually cliche? What other protagonist becomes awesome when he is aroused through a hereditary condition Oo) is once again, is not something that does not make sense. You may think it's stupid, but it's not something that is incongruous or impossible. Akamatsu-sensei is the one making all the money, having sold around 2 million copies of his light novel, so why don't you write a book with a trigger that makes sense and get 2 million people to buy it. Silly is purely subjective. Explained in light novel. Spoiler for Excerpt, already covered in anime.:
Firing a gun during the introductions of the new semester, she's got to be the first one. ... School Life is a popular genre for shounen. Authors have to think of the demographic when they write as well, or else it might not sell*. Rather than criticizing the setting, you should try to pick more plot holes since you're claiming that this is an iceberg of nonsense. Last edited by CrowKenobi; 2011-04-16 at 12:36.

I would like to hear how purposefully shooting the wall could cause fatalities though, especially in a non-ricochet plaster wall like that. |

The fact is that firing a gun like that in a crowded space for no apparent purpose is flat out immoral, and it doesn't make any sense why the school administration would be ok with that.

No it doesn't. If this anime is trying to make settings that involve using real world logic (such as trying to lower crime rates) then it stands to reason that such plot elements can be scrutinized using real world logic.

Yes well, seeing that this series places more emphasis on character interactions and in no way pretends it's a heavy setting like for eample Phantom -PHANTOM OF INFERNO....
You might as well criticize the whole comedy genre....Fine if this is not your thing but is unfair to just focus on this series if so.

As you said before, who would let a bunch of high school students carry around guns in a real world. Merely using the real world as a basis and taking elements from it does not constitute making the entire setting the real world. It's pretty much a parallel universe, as there are supernatural elements. There's no need to tell someone not to watch something because they think it's bad. In fact, you should never say that to anyone. Anyway, the only reason I'm even arguing is because they're making flawed arguments. After all, this is not a shipping war, so it's actually possible to be right. |

Seriously, there's a reason gun safety rules exist. And I'm pretty sure shooting in the direction of your classmates just to let them know you're angry is frowned upon. Seconded. |

The only thing more silly than the setting, are the people forcing their real world logic and views into a completely different world.
It's like watching that one 'slower' child trying to put the square shaped toy into the triangle slot...

don't use light novel spoilers for explanation on the latest episode.
The butei students are covered with bullet proof when they enter 2nd year. So aside from a hit from the head then the chances of death isn't that high but still there are chances. And when you enrolled in butei high then you should be responsible for your life. It's an institution of armed detectives to begin with. Though Aria's action is pretty childish just from the word Love. But that's her character. Plus there are reasons from it but just I say no reasoning using novel so I can't answer that aside that it's a tsunderes act.
