Glad to see Hikaru has some new bodyguards, but they don’t seem all that more helpful than what he already had in terms of… anything tbh.

I hadn’t really thought about it, but if the Mecha-ude can’t normally move without a human it’s extremely unclear how they ever lasted in their own world.

Mecha-Ude

This one is weird to me. When it’s trying to be funny or charming I think it almost always succeeds. When it’s trying to be cool or edgy (most of the time unfortunately) it almost always fails.

Cool, thanks for the review!

I’m curious to hear peoples’ overall impressions of this show; I was considering picking it up. Has it been good so far?

I had no idea this was getting an anime! Something to look forward to with the new year I guess.

I’m two episodes from the end right now, and once it got past the slow start this show was really excellent!

Feels weird to say that one of my favorite isekai is a shoujo mech anime, but you’re absolutely right.

Heck, I might even be able to say that two of my favorite isekai are shoujo mech anime depending on how much I like Magic Knight Rayearth once I finally get around to watching or reading that.

I love this scene so much. Everyone always focuses on how edgy Heero is being, which is of course a really funny aspect of this scene. The clapping is what always gets the first laugh out of me though. It’s just so absurd.

Now that you mention it, I’m not sure whether to call Bravern a romance either. Romance is kind of the focus, but it kind of isn’t. Either way it’s one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen.

I’d love to get a good Junji Ito adaptation someday but at this point I’m beginning to thing the guy is cursed.

Man, why do all the anime streaming sites have to be so terrible?

This show is a weird one to me. The humor is for the most part really good. The mecha-ude are very charming. Any time it tries to do anything serious though it feels like the writing takes a drop in quality.

Oh, I don’t care that much about whether the season comes to its own satisfying conclusion. I was mostly wondering this because I was considering maybe picking up the light novels when I have the time.

Anyone know how long this one is? I’m curious to know whether Season 2 is likely to finish the story.

Does the anilist api give you the release date of individual episodes? If so you could do a check to see if they’re all the same day. Or is that what you were getting at when talking about parsing nyaa?

Maybe in the future for shows like this that are dropped all at once a discussion thread for the whole show instead of individual episodes would make sense. I guess most shows are too long to watch in one sitting though, unlike this one.

Just finished watching the whole show. A couple plot points were really dumb, which is unfortunate because there are only 6 episodes so it was being dumb at least 1/3 of the time. The most impressive part to me was that it didn’t look like ass despite being 100% 3d-rendered. Certainly not the worst thing I’ve ever seen, but I won’t be recommending it to people either.

This episode was a great reminder of why Haryu is just the best. What a guy.

Even if they’re “real” the decision was made to not release them. They’re stories that were specifically chosen to not be canon.

Okay, thanks! I just wanted to be sure it wasn’t a bug.
