I mean, you're not interested in the actual anime? Just wait the CDs if that's all you need.

Just listened to the radio. This week's episode promised to have quite a load of fanservice and we'll see Asuha's 大活躍, not necessary a fanservise kind though.
Get ready for those Onii gomi and maji ukeru lines.

The dark horse is an unexpected gem anon. QC was just a bland piece of nothing.
Dark horse of the season goes to Amaama to Inazuma.

Even worse than QC
>>144251987
Oh boy here we go.
>>144251847
Of course I am, otherwise I would have just downloaded the songs instead of watching the show.
>>144251865
What kind of fanservice will we see today?
>>144251047
First episode was entertaining but a bit lackluster considering the rank. Hope episode 2 starts to pick up things. Also, less chuuni = better. Save the chuuni for real/serious battles instead.
>>144252066
>>144251865
I hope we get to see a bit of the chiba siblings past. (Their mother is fucking ridiculous).

Hopefully the adults get their screen time explaining the shit they do too, if not might as well say the kids running it.

Well adults build that thing so to put kids into "cold sleep" so maybe they're more on science side than magic.

>>144251047
"Dark horse of the season" indicates something that is unexpected to do anything of note but ends up becoming popular and sells a lot. Something like Osomatsu-san or Shirobako would be examples of this
QUALITY Code is possibly one of the more blatant examples of an anime designed by committee to sell since Kabaneri last season. This can't be a "dark horse" because it was getting the usual hype levels of marketing from Aniplex anyway. And what a shock, after that terrible episode 1, nobody seems to care about it. Well nobody cares about the LNs either
I hope we get incest-bait eps.
So the focus lays on these two today.
Dropped this after the dude's transformation + flying scene in episode 1 (´･ω･`)
>>144251047

It was generic battle academy LN garbage.

Nice.
>>144256960
Why is she crying?
bwaka strength
>>144257216
They just woke up. And she wants to go back to bed.
Seriously though it's probably because her family except her brother are all dead.
>>144257140
Why the fuck are battle academys so fucking popular in Japan anyway. I haven't seen a single one where the setting justified their existence in a logical way. Most of the time they seem to just exist because the adults in universe act in an idiotic and unrealistic fashion.
Beach ep so soon?
>>144257326
Wait, are you talking about the cold sleep thing?
>Hime's dick was this big
oh boy

>>144257367
Don't worry after Asterisk and this bombing hard, you're not going to be seeing much of them in the foreseeable future.
the quality is so horrible that I don't feel my boner at all
>>144257367
In this show makes no sense, but if you have never seen a show in which the academy is a real academy and the only fighting is a tournament that lets you show off or defending from people attacking the academy then you need to watch more anime.
>>144257367
It doesn't seem like a battle academy at all though. From what I can tell, it's more like they're having kids take on the role of the military since they got the powers and shit.

>>144257545
Aniplex should stop using A-1 Pictures for almost all of their titles.

DId they even say something about fanservice? They do use fanservice but below the average.

Thoroughly enjoying this ride.
>>144258230
Yes. No officially TL'd LNs, and even if there were or there were fan TL'd ones they have nothing to do with this story since it's completely independent aside from character similarities+setting.
I'm having the feeling they are spending the first three episodes on introducing the characters.
Ep 1: Tokyo
Ep 2: Chiba
Ep3: Kanagawa
In the first episode we got to know more about the Tokyo prefecturethan the other two, this time around, we get to know a litle more about Chiba. If this is right, they sure are taking the time.
>>144257482
>Asterisk

Thank god. LNfags are the Muslims of /a/.
>>144258690
Makes me wonder if they are keeping the 3 authors/3 prefectures for the anime like the LNs. Would be interested to know if it's separate like that or not for the intro episodes or if they are all in on writing each episode.

OP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMRqSKCZ0wQ
How would the Kanagawa episode go?
Chiba and Tokyo pairs knew each other as kids. Kanagawa has a whole LN series dedicated to how they met and it has its share of twists and turns.
>>144260491
Visually, it doesn't look spectacular enough for an OP.
>>144260491
Why is she crying?
>>144260536
it will be pretty gay
Welp, they keep insulting each other. Also, imouto is kinda a cunt. Onii-chan has to bear with her.
which team is which author? lazy team is oregairu and bwaka team is date a live?
>>144261145
Will we have this shit every thread or something?
>>144251047
>dark horse of the season
That would be 91 Days though. That shit has been amazing so far.
The sword girls are easily the weakest part of the show
>>144261208
it's not like this show will have many threads
MC is a fucking asshole
That cute girl did literally nothing to deserve hi sshitty treatment
Man, I'm sorry but this is so boring. Like, I know I should feel interested but I'm really not.
I think it was the combination of "swimsuits in episode 2" and the "Aniplex puts a music video in the middle of an otherwise slow sequence that gives me Grimgar reminders" that really did it.
>>144261728
>like
You have to be 18 to post here friend
>>144261728
It was dedicated to Chiba, the lazy ones. What did you expect?
>>144261909
I wish it was dedicated to them. They're my favorites. Episode was more like 25% them and 75% other shit
>[HorribleSubs] Qualidea Code - 02 [1080p].mkv
It's out. This episode was better than I expected actually.
>>144262085
Seems to always be the case with this series
There are a lot of little scenes that just make it all go over so well, even tho the overall premise seems so overdone when you summarize it in a sentence or two
>>144257746
Jesus Christ, asshole's taste in swimwear is hilarious.
Why even bother to wear that? Just wear your underwear or go naked.
>>144262138
When the anons were dumping the pics I thought "Okay, this is it, it's shit". Then I watch the episode and it's completely different. What the fuck?
>>144261264
Sadly I agree.
>>144262175
At least it's not a banana thong.
Wincest pairing, best pairing.
>>144262336
True but it wouldn't have made much of a difference, you can already see his dick.
Well that was another mediocre episode. Third time's the charm I guess, maybe the Kanagawa episode will be better. I doubt it though.

The "insults" are kind lame and generic, but it's still a decent watch. A shame about the animation quality though.

Lack of publicity (there barely nis any in Akiba of all places) and A-1 QUALITY.

I'm actually liking the character interactions in this show. Feels like there's a certain dynamic when interacting with others, with MC and Chiba subhead always ganging up on Chiba. Also the respect the kids have for adults is kind of scary actually.

>>144262261
This. Also the reason why it's bombing, fucking lesbian shit.
DAL author fucked up.
>>144263646
Agreed, guess all that chuuni shit in the first episode was the reason. It's actually more interesting to see the everyday life of the characters intstead and how they interact with each other.
>>144263402
Unless it's boring like this one. We had like, what, 2 and a half threads during all of last week?

Fixed.

This series would be pretty good if not for the female pair.

I actually really like this show, QUALITY aside. It's a lot of fun and the characters have some solid chemistry.
Also tsundere siblings. Hopefully there's not too much stupid drama to ruin the mood.
>>144266198

>>144266304
Dunno, Tachibana said on briefing that Hotaru is the coolest one and Hime is the cutest one. I'm waiting for that to be proven.
That blue-haired chick is uninteresting and annoying as hell. Why is everyone from that Sector so Worst.
