Do you miss it? Honestly I can't believe it's even over or that I even watched the whole fucking thing. That ending was such a gut punch though. All those new plot elements and my waifu Claudia finally becoming relevant and then it just fucking ends. Guess I should be thankful it even got a second cour. I felt like that really helped it be more than the usual battle harem since it had more time to expand on things.
Still though. I didn't think it was amazing but I grew more attached it from the time investment of being 2 cour. I wouldn't have minded seeing more of it at this point.
Juan Perez
I already forgot this garbage was a thing.
Angel Gutierrez
I will only miss Kirin.
Julian Morgan
i'll miss AR-D
Noah Powell
Why would anyone miss this garbage?
There was nothing memorable or shit even remotely interesting in the damn series.
Jace Williams
Reminder that this was supposed to be the next big thing.
lmao
Caleb Adams
Every Aniplex show is billed as the next big thing. I've stopped paying attention to their hype marketing.
Luke Anderson
I will miss Julis. Shit taste. Contradiction.
Parker Williams
Pink Houki a shit.
Thomas Ortiz
*war is fucking garbage.
Caleb Russell
Can someone honestly like this unironically much less ironically?
Oliver Cooper
Genki scientist will be missed
Isaiah Evans
Sylvia > Julis > Fan > Kirin > Ernesta > Priscilla > Flora > Irene > Saya > Claudia
Christopher Cox
It was shit.
Jose Morris
I had forgotten about it until now sadly.
William Evans
Every season I watch one or two of these generic harem battle shounens
at least it's better than Hundred
Nathaniel Kelly
This.
Nathaniel Cooper
Why is every battle harem has mc solo each opponent? You bothered to give him party members, make them do something! But nope, they never move beyond support roles. I am looking at you, Asterisk, spicifially. What is the point of making your tournament a team tournament if Julis is a dead weight on every opponent who doesn't have a throwaway design? I bet Ayato will solo Gryps Festa too.
Landon Thomas
>watching this garbage when Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry does the same shit much better
Brody Martin
Don't deny that this show is 1/10 "worst anime ever" type material. It makes shows like Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry and Hundred look like masterpieces.
Chase Diaz
Rakudai is literal shit because the pacing was retarded. They introduced two SOL episodes right in the middle of the cour and then squeezed like three weeks of relevant plot in 6 minutes in the second to last episode. Jesus what a bunch of fucking retards.
Owen Ross
Obvious troll is obvious. Rakudai was average, but still shat all over Ass War.
Alexander Green
>because the pacing was retarded Are you sure you're not talking about Asterisk?
Luke Martinez
Kinda hard to miss it when it's stll getting talked about. I'll never forget Julis who's a great gurl stuck in a mediocre show, at least.
Jason Butler
You have that backwards. Asterisk is average and it is still better than Rakudai.
Ayden Butler
>and it is still better than Rakudai. Said no one ever.
Gavin White
But he just did. Are you saying he's no one?
Kevin Torres
Said plenty of people in the last episode weekly thread. You should lurk more.
Henry Anderson
This show was pretty boring desu. It was basically the standard of a battle harem where fuck all happens. Because by the end of the show seriously fuck all happens. At this point I'm actually impressed they managed to squeeze out a second season and still keep the status quo almost at where the show started. Anyway, dropped this at around ep 9 and skipped through the rest. How the hell did anyone believe this generic garbage was supposed to be the next big thing? Was the marketing that good?
Liam Ortiz
>I felt like that really helped it be more than the usual battle harem since it had more time to expand on things What? Fuck no. If anything, it just highlighted how god damn insipid and bland it was. The tournament was especially horrible.
The only thing that salvaged this shit's more than rancid writing was all the budget that got thrown towards it and I'm glad that it's going to be a massive failure on Aniplex's side.
Elijah Torres
>Entire genre is based on wish fulfillment >Why does the MC, a stand-in for the reader, always win every battle, while the tsundere love interest does jack shit except look pretty?
Gee, I wonder.
I guess A1 Pictures believed it to be the next Sword Art Online, like how Shonen Jump pushed Toriko as the new One Piece and Black Clover as the new Naruto.
Unfortunately, the reason that it got so much praise from Sup Forums at the time was that Digibro made a 12-part series on how much it sucked, and Sup Forums hates Youtubers.
Kayden Parker
I miss the pure shitstorm nature of that season.
Jaxon Walker
I didn't realize this was an aniplex show. The visuals were worse than uninspired. It managed to make a paint-by-numbers formula even more bland. I never entered the fanbase wars with Rakudai vs. this show, but Rakudai ended up being better by virtue of higher production values, despite its many other flaws.
I'm sure I'll continue to pick up IS clones, but I don't think I'll ever finish one again.
Benjamin Bailey
so Sup Forums basically just decided it was going to be popular
Ryder Green
Worst show I've watched end to end this year.
William Foster
Pretty much. That's what Sup Forums does.
We used to think Attack on Titan was the shit. Now we think it's just shit. Same with every anime that gets popular.
You willingly picked up an A1 Pictures show and were surprised by its blandness?
I know, right? People claiming how all LNs are derogatory bullshit, how all anime is the same now. Folks pledging to never watch any of this battle harem shit again.
So how many of you guys are watching Hundred?
Alexander Hernandez
I don't choose what to pick up, only what I drop.
Jonathan Parker
>So how many of you guys are watching Hundred?
Dropped at ep 5, skipped through the rest as usual. A shame i didn't do it sooner really. It was pretty obvious nothing was going to happen again, as nothing ever does with these types of series. And that cross-dressing bullshit was fucking annoying. I'm not even sure why I bother checking these out anymore. Guess I'm hoping something exciting will happen, but nah, gotta keep the events as safe as possible.
Charles Harris
>next Sword Art Online Not the next Infinite Stratos?
Justin Russell
>Not the next Infinite Stratos?
can anyone genuinely believe IS wasn't complete garbage? at least SAO took around 12 or so episodes to get shit
Tyler Martin
I'll miss it, especially best girl Claudia saving the day.
Nathan Nguyen
I won't miss it, I'm glad it's over. We needed more slut blondie
Caleb Jackson
The girls especially the supporting cast were nice enough I guess but what really killed the show for me was the pacing. It never really felt hyped and not at the right places. Fight against the twins for example was much better than against the robots in the finale. Then the last few episodes the anime just pissed around establishing new characters and a new tournament which you knew would never happen anytime soon. A cliffhanger dragged out for several episodes.
Also the MC got his trumpcard super fighting style extended from 5 minutes to 1 whole hour somewhere around the middle of the tournament. What the shit was up with that.
Could have been good but piss poor execution.
Parker Martinez
Rakudai had better plot, girls, MC, and romance.
Antimagic had better setting, music, MC, and source.
Luis Torres
I'M STILL MAD
Joshua Cook
Reminder.
Jason Wilson
Reminder:
Waiting for the Rain and Ai no uta are best EDs of recent battle harems.
Henry Robinson
Antimagic anime redo: NEVER. Continuation: NEVER.
Jackson Young
>still no Rain
Damn it.
Zachary Perez
Meanwhile, antimagic fans eat popcorn and watch the plebeans fight over their shit waifus.
Hundred would have been so much more interesting with two male leads being bros and foils. Instead it was just more haremshit.
Thomas Mitchell
>Asterisk > Rakudai Asterisk was needlessly long and and no real finale. Explain to me how it was better?
Eli Sanders
I want to knock up kirin and saya
Joshua Mitchell
Why does Asterisk and Rakudai both have such clearly defined love interests? I hated it because I hate the main girls. Main girl being shit is nothing new, but the shows don't even pretend the other girls have a chance.
Sebastian Brooks
This, Asteriskfags and Rakudaifags shitposted themselves to hell and let us make comfy threads.
Joshua Bailey
Not really, stellafag was haunting our treads and shitposting. It's just that we completely ignored ALL shitposting and carried on with being comfy.
