5/10. It was watchable.
>>134951809
Yahiro Pochi, right?
>>134951797
8/10 just because SL fucked up some parts with the cuts and changes to the main source.
Rakudai was a big surprise this season starting being one cliche and generic shit but turns out all that and shines since episode 3, amazing LN sells and good reception of the anime everywhere even on Japan.

Same here m8,this fucking series was a guilty pleasure.
This show was objectively better than Asterisk.
Cheesy until the end.
It just happened to be a glorified average novel of the bunch.
Just like every season, it will be forgotten by the next season, and no, Stella didn't stand out but at least has luck one popular artist is doing a doujin for her albeit a netorare one.
If you purpose was to boost the LNs yhen hood because as far as anime sales goes by I doubt this will get a sequel.
>>134952754

That was the actual purpose of the series, and the LN got a huge boost getting in to the list of the most sold LN's of 2015.

>>134955167
Considering the amazing boost to the LN sells, the popularity rankings on Japan and how the actual SP count is over 4.0K S2 is a must.
>>134955167
You're too positive anon. you should have joined us in watching antimagic so that it would teach you not to be so positive and to see lots of people experiencing despairing due to unrealistic expectations which can give a lesson or two for you.
>>134955426
If anything is getting a season two, it's going to be Rakudai
Right now, if a S2 happens it won't be a surprise, but if it doesn't happen it won't be a surprise either.

>>134955705
>Volume 8 was in the top 5 for 2 weeks, vol 9 in on top 10 just after 2 days since release
So it's losing popularity even with anime still airing?
I guess it will go back to obscurity by the next season starts.
>>134955692
5 volumes in 1 cour, who thought this would be a good idea?
>>134955598
>>LN that isn't largely popular
Out of Anti-Magic, Asterisk and Rakudai, Rakudai is the one that has been receiving the biggest boosts week on week in the weekly rankings.
>>134955817
It's doable. In fact, it's preferable. AntiMagic's director just doesn't know what the fuck he's doing.
>>134955817
Least it didn't end up like Mahou Sensou, that was 7 out of the 8 volumes released at the time adapted into 12 episodes.
>>134955851
Rakudai is also predicted to have the highest BD/DVD sales of the three.
>>134955894
It's not doable, DanMachi did the same and the entire of Volume 4 was squeezed into just 1 episode.
So overall it isn't really doable it's just a matter of how best and smartly can you compromise.
Also didn't help that Anti Magic dedicated an episode to filler even if it did help a bit with the character motive/development.
>>134955705
>>134955851
let's be realistic here anon. LN anime adaptations like rakudai and such need to have at least sales like shinmai season 1 sales(sorry i dont know the exact numbers) for it to have season 2 and danmachi have equal or better sales than rakudai yet there is no season 2 announcement. Now im asking you, did rakudai reached the same numbers?
>>134955921
>http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2014-01-16/even-magical-warfare-original-creator-didnt-think-the-anime-was-a-good-idea
Mahou Sensou was one of a kind though, it's not every day you get a LN author shitting on his anime adaptation like this.
>>134955998
Overlord and No Game No Life are also highly selling LNs with highly selling anime and no S2.
So there isn't always a direct correlation between sales and S2, so good sales can lead to a S2 but they are not essential for a S2. As there have been a few S2 from series with poor sales like TWGOKs etc.
>>134955817
I would have been perfectly fine with it if the literal who director wasn't so shit. After all, vol. 5 was the turning point and what really made Taimadou stand out for me. It's also the best stopping point.
>>134956149
I dont see how that cliffhanger of V5 would make a the "best stopping point", more like a "go read the LNs" stopping point.
>>134956239
Better than stopping in the middle of a war.
>>134956239
Because everything else before that were character arcs.
>>134956092
not really familiar with studios but did silver link even have shows that have S2 or more? checking through wiki, only illya have split cours while other shows that are more than 12 episode which is chitose got you and STB were 24 episodes. So yeah, maybe SL giving S2 will depends on the sales.
>>134956333
Studios don't decide that jackass.
>>134955979
Rokujouma did 6 and a half volumes in 13 episodes, and was probably the best LN harem adaption in the last couple years.
It's doable. AntiMagic just did it badly.
>>134956333
>>134956425
Yeah Studio's rarely call out to do adaptation last I heard of something like that was KyoAni with Hibike!, normally its the book publishers that call up the animation studio's for animation deals.
>>134956433
One could argue that Rokujouma isn't as intense or dense content wise as Anti-Magic though.
>>134956433
And Rokujouma's director is doing Rakudai instead.
Oh fuck me I'm getting bitter as fuck again.
>>134956333
Bakatest and NNB both had 2nd seasonspossible stb S2 announcement next week
>>134956566

>>134956566
I like Rakudai but Onuma should have directed Antimagic or Shomin sample.
>>134956688
Prisma is for Summer. They're going full SoL instead in Spring instead. Can't wait.
>>134956023
What is Rail Wars?
>>134955979
Vol.4 was mostly filler that worked as the aftermath of vol.3. It wasn't relevant.
>>134957208
It's amazing how shitty that anime is.
The only good thing is Uno Makoto's designs, nothing else.
>>134951797
I know I shouldn't put faith on LN adaptation but Rakudai make me think otherwise
and 2nd best fighting scene this season
>>134957308
The author was mad as fuck because the plot was cut out, the terrorist plot, the business plot, the inheritance plot.
When the author complained some of the staff told him to fuck off to be exact
>a good author is the one who is as good as rock or dead
Or something like that on twitter.
>>134951797
Only worth remembering for two fights.
Which is sadly saying a lot compared to the rest of the adaptations this season.
>>134951863
I could only enjoy Sword Eater's arc
>>134951797
LNs is awesome, anime is pretty meh. LNs adaptations is always fucked up.
>>134957683
Really? I think Rakudai's anime has been far superior to the LN.
>>134953227
Nice. This show actually had some really standout tracks.
Interesting to see that the whole OST is actually fairly ballin'.
>>134957790
Dude please.
The anime was OK if we compare it with the LN, it was SL who shitted on some important parts like Raikiri's background cutting one entire chapter of volume 3, or the way how Ayase's arc ends that was a huge mess.
Yeah I agree the first 3 volumes of Rakudai hare average but since the end of volume 3 the LN improves a lot, to the point you're going to be hyped after reading volume 4. Can't wait to see volume 9 translated and the scene of Ikki having sex with Stella.
>>134957790
manga ikki is better though
the pace and style just make him far more awesome than anime ikki
>>134958214
>>134957790
Forgot this.
"Ikki, you can do everything to me that you want..."
"---"
These words acted like a trigger.
He no longer hesitated. He would no longer turn back.
Under the moonlight,
two silhouettes melted together.
Their hot bodies overlapped.
Where did his body end, and where did hers begin?
That was no longer distinguishable as they thightly embraced each other.
Their voices no longer carried any meaning, their lips were desperately seeking the beloved partner.
In the midst of it, Ikki... vowed to himself.
I'll make this girl happy. (Literally, I won't let her be unhappy, but the first version sounds more romantic.
And that he wouldn't let her regret having chosen him.
>>134957790
LNs is way better.
>>134958218
LN ikki is better though
The thoughts and style just make him far more awesome than manga ikki
>>134958271
There's also this:
- The morning after, Ikki awakens and is greeted affectionately by Stella who is already awake.
- There are some plastic debris and Ikki thinks to himself that he didn't expect that much to be used.
- Ikki asks Stella whether it still hurts. She replies that it still does, that it's probably not possible to walk without feeling the pain. Ikki was unexpectedly savage.
- Ikki asks her if she can't heal it with her dragon powers. Stella replies that it's possible although she wants to leave it like that for now. Ikki has a bit of a bad conscience about it. However, Stella tells him it's because that's the evidence of their love.
- After that they share a kiss.
- A couple pages later Shizuku is knocking on the door. The guy providing the spoiler hasn't seen it yet but says it should be Shizuku taking out her dagger.
- Stella apparently also tells Ikki that her father isn't any less scary - if not more - than Shizuku, frightening Ikki.
>>134958399
>There are some plastic debris
Condoms?
>>134957790
I prefer the anime too, they just adapted the scenes into that format so well.
That being said, omitting and rearranging some scenes are a bit of a bummer.
>>134958607
This is not about scenes, it's all about character's inner thoughts.
>>134958766
And what thoughts are we talking about here?
>>134958828
Lewd thoughts for example.
>From the slippery rain and the cold sweat of her fever, Stella's entire body glistened. That sensual brilliance….
>*Foom* Something in Ikki's brain became charred. His throat became dry in an instant. Ikki was immediately compelled to kiss that sweetly fragrant flesh, to touch it with his tongue, to nibble it gently, to quench his thirst on that fresh moisture.
>But Ikki suppressed all of that compulsion with his reason. What was he thinking while his precious Stella was suffering? He struck down those intentions that were bubbling up, and mustered his self control. If he didn't do that, his emotions would erupt. But despite that….
or
>But even if he recognized it, what should he do? Should he say what he really thought?
>Ikki didn't deny the answer to that question one bit. Of course he wanted to. Not just today. Whenever he kissed her, whenever he held her hands, whenever he hugged her. At various times, Ikki felt that impulse in himself. It was right on target. Because Ikki was a boy, and Stella was a girl. There was no way he could deceive himself. It was the natural progression in how a person thinks of his sweetheart.

>>134951863
I'm thankful for the anime, because it got me into the manga, which got me into the LN.
It's also refreshing to see a pseudo-harem show with an MC and love interest that aren't constantly embarassed by being in the same room, let alone accidentally touching each other. I do enjoy how the ED has that corny late-90s feel to it as well.
7.5/10 overall
>>134960275
>>134958998
This is from the LN right?
It was alright, I liked Ikki though his character was pretty entertaining to watch, Stella is below average and just drags him down.
Not a bad show overall better than I assumed, I really wanted to see Sword Eater against Ikki again but guess I pray in hopes of S2 to see that happen.
I'll never forget Ikki getting glassed, That scene was fucking hilarious.
>>134961358
Will you watch Asterisk, Lelouch?
>>134961346
Yes.
Ikki finally did the opening, the one instance where he sounded cool.

It was okay, 6/10. Better than Asterisk

Their matchmaking system is seriously flawed. You could be matched with 19 D ranks and proceed as long as you win.
Pretty fun show overall
>>134962080
It's better not to think about the fucking tournament because it makes no sense at all.
Maybe I'm retarded but I don't get the point of the whole imprisonment and interrogation stuff that was going on these two episodes.
How is winning the match made it ok to suddenly kiss in public and even fucking propose but doing it before is wrong.
What kind of rules and laws are these where they outright tell you that the resolution of your trial lays upon your ability to win a sword match, without any relevance to whether you are actually guilty.
>>134962245
>notpayingattention.exe
The entire point of the detainment and interrogations was to break his will and make him lose, so his father didn't lose face if he kept winning.
Did you literally not watch the episode?
>>134962312
I kinda got that, but what's exactly stopping them from doing it again? Is it because Stella's father called him or something?
Why didn't he just do it earlier?
It must be a Japanese muh pride thing that I don't understand to justify the whole ordeal in the first place.
Is this what every guy that tries to date an idol in Japan goes through?
Why here? Everyone can see.
Why is this cunt still trying?
Just fuck off already. What an absolutely useless character.
I enjoyed the anime a lot.
>>134962080
>You could be matched with 19 D ranks and proceed as long as you win.
I know right and that one F rank that got in. That system they used is entirely broken.
>>134962597
I don't know because in LN they're kissed behind a gates.
>>134962597
Because he proved himself to everyone.
>>134962080
>Their matchmaking system is seriously flawed
If losing in the tournament even once means that you are out and you always fight against a person with same number of wins as you (just like the main part of Tenkaichi Budoukai in DB), to have 6 people with 19 wins, you need 6*2^19 participants, which is exactly 3145728 brats.
Talk about flawed.
>>134962840
I dunno if you're being sarcastic but Ikki is an F rank only on paper to make him an underdog.
You've seen his actual ability and he was matched against the top.
There should've been a losers bracket or something then they could use it as an excuse to put Shizoku and Tohka back instead of those two, but I guess it's not interesting because she already fought the MC once. Nobody cares about the actual chances of wining the tournament.
I'm no fan of Silver Link but I find it hilarious that A-1 with all its money, hype and advertising for Asterisk including announcing it at a Western convention pretty much lost out completely to this show by just about any measure and is now locked in to another season which is probably going to feature their lowest effort ever as a result.
>>134958399

Don't worry though, we won't see her in S2.
>>134963061
Well source material counts too I guess. Just by having a defined winner and actual hooking up is already putting Rakudai above the average harem.
I guess even Japan got fed up with it and wanted something fresh.
I think it's also why SAO was kinda successful.
>>134963165

Actually,

>>134962971
>3145728 brats
Sounds about right although I calculated it as 3*2^20 because to get 2 people with K wins you need 2^(k+1) starting people.
I guess the author wasn't good at basic math.
SL should adapt this up to season 3
I just wanna see Ikki beating that psycopathic shota
>>134951797

It was a fun watch but overall it wasn't that good. Some of the fights were good as well as the music but all of a sudden they threw Ikki in jail for kissing Stella and making him suffer because he's supposed to be weak and he's showing up his father. Then the president gets defeated in one attack.
>>134953227

>>134963759
That he was actually joking and should wait till school ends so they should just go back to beign friends for now.I'm guessing
>>134950282
Last two episodes of this show finally managed to push it into "good" territory. The romance acted as more than window dressing, and Ikki overcame Mary Sue status to become an actual character.
No, just because he won with a single move does not make that moment file under the victim complex catalogue the rest of the show fills up.
>>134954229
That late? Fucking why
>>134962971
Not necessarily, perhaps the system weeds out the people with most losses each few rounds-It just happened that the twelve finalists that year obtained 19 wins each.
>>134963061
This isn't A-1's fault, this is Aniplex's fault, if only they funded Rakudai instead for 2 cours.
>>134958456

Really? Fucking really? This fat man with a giant golden axe he pulled out of his ass is allowed to just walk into the ring? Do they not have any kind of security?

You don't get it? the whole purpose is showing how Ikki's family was trying to mess with him, by leaving that fat man doing shit the Director can use is as a proof against the Kurogane family to leave Ikki alone.

>>134965315
She's a monster that needed to die.
But the anime did a nice job with making me feel some more sympathy.
Toka reminded me of Medaka a lot during that fight.

This is literally one of the best 1 cour generic battle harem LN adaptations I may have ever watched.
>>134965678
I think the one I didn't find annoying the most was Machine Doll.
Cause barely anyone actually read that shit.
>>134950282
An 8/10. It feels great as a harem, but the real fun is when the directing went experimental like with the changing color schemes, letterbox being destroyed by raikiri and certain scenes being cinematic-like. It was just really fun to watch.
>>134950282
>The worst harem show of the season is finally over
I still can't believe they made an entire dramatization about a romance that is literally Twilight tier. The last arc painful to watch. This show was only good for the action.
>>134964863
Incest is wrong.
>final battle
>epic build up
>doesn't even animate it
And that's when I dropped this garbage. Atleast it managed to edge out Antimagic and Asterisk as best guilty pleasure garbage show of the season

Shizuku is teasing, but she finally gives Stella her blessing huh? Not sure how to feel about that. I'll miss their cat and dog interactions.

There's nothing left to drop anon. You got tricked into watching it to the end.

You're the reason for that.

>SL fucked up volume 3
>Blame the entire series
Hello there newfag, seems like you didn't even know the story of SL and how they always shit on their adaptations. This isn't Rakudai's fault because the LN is pretty good, it was SL and if you want ask to Prismafags they can say the same.
>>134965730
It wasn't bad, but the MCs refusal to sex yaya was irritating.
>>134951797
The show was clearly extreamly low budgeted and not in the meme way people tend to use it. The director should be given a medal for trying as hard as he did while having to cut corners. Also points for actual having a couple for once instead of a shitty harem or a pussy mc that never kisses the girl.
who is best girl and why is it alice?

>>134966212
Because Shizuku was never destined to win and Stella is highly overrated when she hasn't done anything interesting.
Kuraudo is best anyway
It was a solid adaption, anyone bitching about differences can't even read the original in Japanese anyway. The terrible grammar in this thread tells exactly who reads those butchered translations.
Whole episode was pretty fucking underwhelming and the fight was beyond anticlimactic. Playing Todo up that big and then ending her in one strike. So much for all her cool powers. Guess she just decided to trash all of them for no reason and went for a barbarian clash so Ikki could look even cooler. What a champ.
Best fight was probably Shizuku and Todo. Shame nothing else managed to match that.
>>134966045
>one hit KO
>not showing the hit
>>134966466
It was so fast it happened in between the frames
>>134955692
The show was shit since second episode when the MCs battle suit and monster were full CG. No point in watching it since your imagination will draw a better image while reading the novel.
>>134953227
>let's go ahead
>>134966466
I saw it. I think you're too slow for this.
As bad as the narrative was, I kinda really enjoyed the series.
Great OP, good battle scenes, decent ost and some interesting directing. 5/10
>>134966620
I followed to hear the voice work.
It was flawless in that department
>>134951797
Surprisingly good, the best LN adapted series this season.
>>134965924
The transition to the OPs style during the final clash was better then that weird ass shit Asterisk did when the MC powered up.
Best endcard.
>>134953227
>no sign of OP piano version
>>134951425
Am I the only one who thinks it's ridiculous how not one bats and eye on him probably being strong af?
>>134966430
Touka isn't that good. They hyped her too much in the anime (the Shizuku fight was great, but the golem fight was retarded). She's got a sure-kill move that gives her an overwhelming advantage, that's all (and enough to make her strong as hell).
She's also retarded. She could have zapped Ikki from a distance, but she's too prideful for this and used her close range technique against a guy whose only strenght is close range and studying other people's techniques.
>>134967157
If they want to keep the theme of being chivalrous meeting his strike head on makes sense even though it's stupid from a tactical stand point.
>>134966961
>>134965053
Can I get a 720 version of this?

Touka a cute.

SUZAK
>>134967334
She's not being chivalrous, she loves to fight. She knew the fight was a set-up to get Ikki killed but was still happy about fighting him anyway.
She knew he was strong and she wanted to beat him with her strongest technique, even if it makes no tactical sense.
>>134967157
Yeah Ikki is lucky that todou decided to face him straight on in that clash otherwise he would have lost for real.
>>134967688
Are you stupid he wanted her to fight him. Neither of them did anything wrong. Honoring his desire to take her strongest move head on instead of using a more sly technique to beat him is indeed chivalrous.
>>134967843
Well, that's only lucky if you've got LN MC plot armor, beacuse taking raikiri head on would have meant sure death. She legit tried to kill him with that strike.
>>134966825
And ikki is slightly better than the average MC.
>>134967659
I lover her expressions on this episode, but i also wanted to see the moment of the swords clashing, also if they showed Touka flexing and tensing her muscles when getting into her stance would be have been awesome.
>>134968018
Is alpha as fuck.
>>134951797
It was a surprise, I never thought I would like that much this anime.
It wasn't a masterpiece, but it was very fun to watch. I'll be waiting for season 2,If it have one.
7.5/10
>>134953227
Hell yeah! Thanks for the link, beloved anon!
>yfw you realize the reason todo vs.shizuku fight had so much budget is because the final battle is only one hit kill.
>>134953227
>let's go ahead
>>134968832
They shuffled the Shizuku fight to put it one episode later too. They clearly wanted it to be the main attraction of this arc.
>>134968889
Which track is that?
The direction was meh
Once the awful ass opening starts right before the fight there was no more tension in the episode

The one that's name "let's go ahead"
There has to be at least an OVA, right? Almost every harem show gets one.
