Now that I have caught up with the thread time to hear more horrible opinions. I liked the anime solely because of the universe, "scientific magic! sign me up" Oh lovely magic doesn't get butt hosed even better! But like everyone said, it is hard to like for me as the characters which would make up most of the show are bland and boring as they feel like they have no contribution to the plot besides being stand in characters who can be unnamed for half the show then get one as ultimately at episode 7 they did jack poo poo. Ultimately I never really saw the ultra nationalistic agenda, but I did see the "rich poor" contrast. And it did make it groan and go "oh loving poo poo not this again". at the end of the day I would probably still watch it to explore more of this magic universe but its meh for anything worthwhile.

Serious Frolicking posted:I swear, Satou must have one of those squishy rear end mousepads, custom-made in Tatsuya's likeness. Yeah that was just plain ridiculous, all these episodes have done so far is build up how ridiculously OP he is where as most shows that have a OP MC just give like a 5 minute snippet of the MC's Power.

Serious Frolicking posted:Tatsuya isn't even in the running, because he is kind of a slave bodyguard. That's silly, but at least it isn't because he is too awesome (for once). I think the other candidates are a few cousins who appeared briefly. The funny part is that Maya Yotsuba is not an old woman and she does not have poor health. Why does the official heir matter that much if it is likely to be another 20-50 years before they take over anyway? Well accidents happen and you would want to set a clear line of succession plus you would want to train them to be the head of family by exposing them to how it works. But you know got to straw man insult our lovely block of wood.

Now I know what's bugging me about this anime, The protagonist never actually struggles. He just jokingly expresses power at the drop of a hat making him godlike. Even in Code Geass where lelouch is probably the smartest guy around he runs into walls or situations that tax him and make it seem like he has trouble. Toaru where Toma has the most OP power still has a weakness of getting shot or making mistakes. If Tatsuya actually had to struggle against something or a proper weakness it would get on much better.

Serious Frolicking posted:Ahahaha, oh my god. That was the most amazing scene thus far. After Miyuki's (deathly dull) dance-off, there was a scene that consisted entirely of panning over stills, while girls gushed over how amazing the match was. However, all of the girls who were talking about how great Miyuki is were swarming around Tatsuya while Miyuki was standing well away from the group. Obviously, the subject of the conversation quickly switched to how Tatsuya is more god than man while those who scorned him seethed impotently, ignored by every girl in the room. It was probably just so they didn't have to animate a a change in scene for when they stopped talking about Miyuki and started talking about Tatsuya, but it was still inadvertently hilarious. I think the ruinous losses come form the fact that... (wait if they are the bookies can they bet against themselves? Like bet on 3rd high and reap in money? but its probably a zero sum game) So yeah now that I think about it doesn't make sense unless there's another party they're betting to and they (the chinese) decided to bet on 3rd high winning by sabotaging the other schools.

Monocled Falcon posted:Well, this series is Tatsuya being looked down on by everyone, so I assume that the payout of his team winning everything are so high it would wipe them out. But the bookie would consequently put very low odds since everyone knows that 1st high would win. Unless the bookie was really retarded

A semi magic action anime where the MC isn't hilariously over powered that I liked was Unbreakable machine doll but it does suffer from MC gaining a harem for no reason at all. Plus the MC isn't a wimp!

Namtab posted:Sorry, I meant to say there's a lot of books in this one series. I really have no idea why they're spending so long in this one arc when the next proper arc has Tatsuya's limits being released so that he can go disintegrate the chinese without remorse + nuke them. Saving it for season 2 we need to pace out killing all the non-japanese people we can

Cake Attack posted:I think 2000 is the magic number to be considered successful, so yeah, it's good. I think 2000 is the break-even "we'll consider making more" number. But yeah its 2000 bluray copies usually, that have like 2 episodes a piece, and they would have to be pants on head retarded not to continue bank rolling it for the cash, unless one of them poo poo cans it because he realises how awful it is He likes money more

Dreamsicle posted:I thought if the publisher feels novel sales are satisfactory they won't bother greenlighting another season. It's why Spice and Wolf and Haruhi don't have a Season 3. That depends I think IIRC Chihayafuru tanked on BD sales but it sold enough Manga to make up for it and it greenlit season 2

Well it is just very boring in that after like 5 episodes you go "literally nothing can stop him" good for villians but not so good for protagonists. There was no tension to be had and any tension that arose felt very artificial because you knew that tatsuya-god will just murder gently caress them. for christ sakes he can't even die
