It took twelve fucking episodes for something to actually happen.
One of the last lines was LITERALLY "I wonder what's gonna happen next.", gee I fucking wonder too, and I wonder WHEN something's going to happen.
What the FUCK were they trying to do with this anime?
You're supposed to watch it for the girls. The rest is irrelevant.
>What the FUCK were they trying to do with this anime?
>Nothing happens for 12 episodes
Selling novels, what else?

Kirin a best.
>>135148116
Kirin was the only saving grace of Asterisk. The others were underdeveloped or just plain boring.
As for girls go, Antimagic takes the prize.
>>135149506
Genki girl was fine tho.
>>135149506
Claudia would be instant best girl if they focused on her backstory, motivations and facets. She has the potential.
>>135149861
You should be thankful they didn't ruin her by giving her the mess of a backstory everyone else has.
Every girl in Asterisk is pretty shit, but the best ones were definitely the ones we saw less of.
Wait I thought this was just Silver Link and A-1 having a contest on the exact same shit...
>>135148116
But even the girls were kinda irrelevant.
I WANT TO CUM INSIDE KIRIN
>>135150046Rakudai ended up being better, if only because the Shizuku and Kuraudo fights were some of the best action sequences of the whole season.

>watch it for the girls
>lead girl is an insufferable tsundere
its nice when the others are around, but the interactions between generic MC and mary sue are not worth

Are you mentally challenged? All the things that happened in those 12 episodes hinted or had something to do with the plot.
>>135150139
The show can't into character development. That's why the quirky girls that only appear once like pic related, the genki scientist and Claudia are great. Kirin is still the best though.
>>135148001
They were trying to fill a niche in the otaku market that didn't exist, or was already filled. They wanted to make a scifi, action, harem series and ended up creating something that was literally nothing more than the dry definitions of scifi, action, and harem.
Watch Bahamut next season instead.
It's literally the same thing as Asterisk, but executed a million of times better. And the art is leagues apart.
>>135153413
haven't read past volume 2, does it have a plot or just school tournaments?
>>135153413
Cant wait for best battle harem next season
>>135153533
More plot than Asterisk, at least.
>>135148116
>Watch it for the girls
>This show is so garbage the only good thing is the girls
Sasuga /a/.
You fags can go on delude yourself in this trash.
>>135153878
that applies to all haremshit. Well bake was liked due to its girls(though some anons say that the dialogue is better than the girls). Oh wait, you're a guy that shits on something that you dont like.
>>135154035
Not all harems are literal trash like Asterisk.
>>135154268
I'm pretty sure they are all trash, some are just less trashy than others.
>>135154268
Asterisk still turned out much better than rakudaishit.
>>135154644
Rakudai at least had two stunning fights. What is there to praise about Asterisk? Everything was so fucking bland, boring, unimpactful, generic. Literally nothing stands out about it.
>>135153533
Plot and Character developments.Celis and Philuffy are still bland as usual
>>135154728
Asterisk at least had consistent fights and characters, especially the girls and a plot. What is there to praise about Rakudai? Everything was so fucking bland, boring, cheesy, poorly written, shallow. Except for 2 fucking fights nothing stands out about it.
>>135155983
Asterisk was consistently boring and bland. Say what you will about Rakudai, but it at least managed to have two hype fights. Something to get excited for. Even you couldn't deny that.
>>135154592
Oregairu ain't half bad
>>135154268
I get what you mean anon. Even the horribly adapted antimagic have something that makes me want to watch every week(pic related), i just visit to rakudai threads then watch the fights through some kind anons doing the webm. Asterisk have nothing that i only visit to threads just to laugh at rakudaifags and asteriskfags shitposting.
>>135156814
Don't use that shitty version
