When I first saw this anime I was thinking it was an incredibly girly anime that would put me into a fit of feminism if I watched it. But I am a fan to the romance genre so I checked this anime out...

Beat my expectations! I have fallen for this show, this show gave me what I loved from Shakugan no Shana and then gave me what I didn't get on top. Will be watching the second series in a marathon tonight I'm sure... surely the second series can't keep up to this standard?

My thoughts exactly.
The show was much better than I had anticipated it to be and I'm happy there are more seasons.

I really loved this season! I was slow to start it, but once I watched a few episodes I was hooked. The animation was good, as was the storyline. The ending was a little short in my opinion. I would have liked to see a little more of Louise & Saito's new relationship. Since there is a 2nd season, I'm sure it will pick up where it left off. Hopefully, it will also keep up with the standards that the 1st season set.

Final episode was well done, the only thing I complain is that they get suddenly that much power (Guiche) and this mysterious Zero magic going to destroy the enemy completely - makes the final battle quite boring.
Guiche hitting Cromwell with a cane was quite funny :)

All in all, I'm content with this series so far. I first thought this will going to be a stupid fanservice show, but its story and realization made it worth watching. Let's see how many points it can achieve (since I don't like the 1-10 points system)..

8/10. Louise was a cunt 'til the end.

I really liked it: the whole thing just screamed Transall Saga. I mean it really is kind of similar but I'd read the book ages ago so it was more nostalgia...

Haha, I definitely didn't expect him to start actually shooting with the plane. I wish there was a little bit more school life goin' on, it seemed interesting to me. I suppose they sorta axed the whole school bit when the show went into summer vacation halfway through the series.

eh, alright, it was pretty good. I probably went in to this series with my expectations way too high, having recently finished some really good animes (Spice and Wolf, Shakugan no Shana, TTGL), so that may be why I didn't like it as much. It wasn't great, but it got me hooked right from the first few minutes, and I ended up watching the whole thing today. Not many animes do that for me. Anyway, very enjoyable overall. I recommend it. 7/10, and this is the only ecchi anime that will ever get above a 5 from me.

(I rate things pretty low, so when I say 7 (meaning good), I really do mean it. It's a good series.)

When I saw the first mention of the "Dragon's Blood" and saw it, I immeadiatly thought "Airplane" for some reason, and I was right; liked how it was used in the end.

I was honestly not expecting that kiss from Lousie though, caught me way off guard.

I wasn't expecting much from this, but I highly enjoyed it... maybe I should change the 8 to a 9...

Wow, that series was better than I expected. There was everything I loved from SnS and even more. It was a a brilliant idea with that rocket launcher and plain as something extraordinary in their magic world.
I'm a little bit disappointed with Guiche defeating Cromwell. I hoped that Saito would've done that in a longer fight and get the ring he promised to retrieve.
5/5 and 9/10 ;p

That was a good series and all, but does anyone else think that it's pretty damn pathetic that a bunch of fully gown and highly-trained magic knights were upstaged by a couple of students? I mean, what were they expecting, charging after a battleship with horses? Were they going to throw their swords at them?

And when that golem sprang up in front of them, why wasn't it immediately decimated by 20 magical spells hitting it simultaneously? They're magic knights! they should be able to take care of this kind of thing easily!

Not to mention when all of those soldiers were just watching Saito be totally awesome and not doing anything remotely helpful when he started to get his ass kicked., like shooting fireballs at the evil dude not paying them even the slightest bit of attention. But no, that would make too much sense.

But you know what, after seeing Louise single-handedly slaughtering an entire battleship full of people, I can forgive all of that.

Yeah, exactly the same here. I would have given it a 9/10 if it just had a better female main character. At least Saito was pretty cool.

Anyway, nice episode. (Though what's up with that useless army? Seriously, Trysting may be a small country but... for a couple of students do do way better than its troops... Isn't it a bit too much?) Saito was badass and void magic is great so it doesn't seem like Louise is that much of a zero anymore. Best part was Guiche taking down Cronwell xD Pretty awesome.

As for the anime as a whole... It totally took me by surprise. I thought it'd be average at best. After going into Shakugan no Shana with high expectations and being really disappointed, I didn't expect much from this. But I ended up loving it. The setting was great, the political stuff was quite interesting (even if a bit shallow) and although I didn't like Louise at all, I admit she fits her role quite well and her interactions with Saito are pretty nice to see (Well, at least when she's not with a whip on her hands... What's up with that anyway? Do they have a different notion of "human rights" in Halcheginia?). Saito is a great male lead, actually one of the best I've seen in this type of anime. Strong and decisive without mumbling stupid idealistic speeches all the time. Nice^^ The side characters were one of the strongest points in this show imo. I really liked Tabitha (well, I usually like that character archetype), but even Guiche and Kirche, who I initially despised, turned out to be great characters on their own regards and adding a lot to the anime. I really liked this anime and I'm glad there are two more seasons. Let's see if the quality doesn't drop. This one earns a 8/10 from me. (And I almost gave it a 9/10.)

It's not often I prefer a male main character to the female main, but it was alright 7/10. I'll continue watching the series.
