Nice screencap, retard.

>>139129357
I feel like this show pumped every trope and cliche they could find into it, in spite of lacking both the plot and the cast to support even the most common ones. It really does feel like a middle schooler or high schooler took every idea they liked even a little bit from their favorite manga and tried to make a coherent story out of it.
The poetry is also amazing.

>>139130457
Probably to make a plot for a cell phone game that probably doesn't even have one.

Monster Strike did a pretty enjoyable job though, even though it's based on the 3DS game. Not to mention at least the games can have Crossovers, like Divine Gate x NGE or even the Monster Strike ones.

So season 2 or nah I need this dramatic comedy.

No, you're missing the context, if you haven't seen the show.

The character eating that food won't even warm food because his parents never gave him warm food.

Its shit but jumping into a thread and pointing out absurdity everyone already agrees on is just poor showmanship.

Akane and Midori (Red and green) are cool and their backstories are cliche but well done for the time they had.

Also the MC isn't that bad, you think he'll go full Sasuke with his emo shit but he's chill.
>>
>>139146490

The characters are very generic but not that bad, the problem is the non-sensical plot.

Everyone in the show (and the game) have the deepest and darkest backstories that it becomes comedic.

It's actually not as edgy as I or many others thought it to be. That person wondering if it gets to Deadman Wonderland levels, it doesn't. The drama gets silly and ridiculous though.

>>139131586

This guy probably isn't here anymore, but the game actually has a lot of plot told through character descriptions and sporadic story events (for Chips) as well as story quests. Let the anime speak for its quality, but it's at least there.

Thank you everyone for watching this show to the end and exchanging poems for the last 3 months.

I'll always remember this show as an unironically edgy yet funny masterpiece.

Well your in luck, I just stopped by now to see if anyone replied. Thanks for that info. What little I've seen of Divine Gate is just when they have monsters from other games by the same company in Puzzles and Dragons. Also that they had an Evangelion crossover once.

Wait I just now realized I got Arthur from the REM twice.

Just stopped by to see your opinions, and after reading most of what you guys wrote I guess I didn’t make the right choice by not watching this Anime.... I thought it wasn't worth it.... Apparently a wrong choice!

Well, actually, the Knights of the Round were all resurrected, so it's not as bad as it was, at least. But now Dorothy's dead, Arthur's evil, and he's worn out as fuck after taking back the weapons he gave to the six gods, and the World Council hates him (probably). He's still a sad sack, but at least the Knights of the Round aren't dead.

Speaking of them though, I'm sure Arthur's daughter being alive now, along with Lancelot, would play a big part in season 2's bringing Arthur back to the good side. Well, the whole Knights of the Round as well, I guess, since they were his friends/subordinates after all. Santa would probably be revived/turn out not to be dead, too.

I don't know how I forgot that. It just felt so random and unexpected they were all alright all along.

Yeah, I just started dying when Lancelot showed up at the end of the episode and they were the trio was like "???" and he's like "We were saved by the greater power, don't worry."

I don't think she's a yandere/crazy. From her descriptions, she just seemed to be one of those girls that hides her sadness behind a smile, which we didn't really get to see at all? The only one of the second trio that even got any characterization was Ginji.

Oriens is the true crazy girl though. And if there's a second season, we might get to see her, since she's friends with Crowley, the girl seen at the end of the episode here: >>139138022

Just in case there was a misunderstanding, they could still use the Gate, they just chose not to for moral reasons.

Such a cocktease though. All of that just for them to choose not to use it.

>>139152442

They actually give out a lot of free Chips. Still a lot of luck involved though, but I managed to get several amazing units without spending anything. Feels good.

Definitely do the stuff for this event: http://divine-gate.wikia.com/wiki/Missions/Holy_God_Mission

Gives you a bunch of free stuff while you complete the first few story missions and a really good unit.

I agree on it not being that great though. Feels like there's less skill than luck involved with just five panels, even if you can make things go more in your favor with passive skills and such.

This was the most disappointing thing. They each dedicated their lives to reuniting with a special person. Then when they're right on the threshold of the Gate and ready to make their dreams come true Ginji and the key-child, with a single sentence each, convince them to turn back. Six episodes of struggle evaporates in a mere moment and the only thing that changes in the end is that their fight has led to the supposed deaths of some of the people they were so vehemently chasing after. And apparently they're fine with that.

The same goes with Arthur, I suppose. He finally gets the chance to break free of Loki's curse and he rejects it. Why? One could make an argument about character development for the main trio, but Arthur just sat there on his throne for half the show.

Please tell me I've lost some important bit of detail among all the conceits. I expected so little from the finale but was still let down. What was the point? What the hell was the point in any of this?
