Wow, they sure ended Yoshino's arc with just two episodes. The anime's pacing was horrid and lacked so much details of the Light Novel. I still prefer the Light Novel.

Yoshino was so adorable.

This episode was very good. Yoshino lost her puppet named Yoshinon and Shido helped her to find the puppet.

I loved Origami in her maid outfit, it was cute.

Good scene between Yoshino and Shido at the end.


You cant expect an anime to have all the details of a LN you know.. Especially if its only 12 episodes total

Ave you ever seen a movie have all the details of a book?

Look at harry potter a lot was missing but the movie was great nevertless

All you guys keep mentioning the LN come on.. Stop it already

His harem isn't big enough yet, it's time for Shido to capture even more spirits and become the badass of the universe. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

This show reminds me of Bakemonogatari very much. x3


Isn't it pretty common in shounen anime? Normal boy with Harem?
Hmm yeah because there's a loli!!!!
But this closest to TWGOK, everytime I watch it it's remind me of TWGOK

First half was boring, second half more of the same as the other episodes, without the comedy, standard loli lost it's touch many seasons ago. Hopefully the next spirit is at least enjoyable to watch.

How to get arrested : be found in the middle of nowhere kissing a naked little girl.

Shido is a real pimp xD

As I thought, the misunderstanding lasted an whole episode. Godamnit Shido, you could have talked to Tohka through the door of her room or whatever...

Origami is a real crazy yandere... She have some of those creepy expression :P

And there goes Yoshino's arc. It was done incredibly fast but I can't say I'm sad as I wasn't too invested into it. Yoshino is fine though without Yoshinon...

Tohka was cute though, dealing with her feelings of jealousy!

Origami was Origami again.

Looks like they will all be living in a house now! Go, Shidou, gotta catch'em all!

Drama? Not really, just return to the kid it's toy. Yoshino is cute but I don't care about her much. Kiss scene was lame. So when shit really gets down Kotori is no use. Highlight of this episode was Origami who wanted to get it on with Shidou.

MC only can concentrate on one character in a character specific episode. Honestly, if he used common sense he could have talked with Tooka and resolve her anxiety. -_-'

So he can't die. Explanation, when?

Kotori <3
I love it, Kotori, Yoshino, Origami are the best. Origami is unbelievable, dat maid outfit, sexual harassment maid lol. Kotori is still my favorite though, I enjoy seeing that she loves onii-chan even in commander mode, calling him onii-chan when is in danger.

and look who's lucky perv here :3

newest pedobunny army addition? XD


Kotori is still a brocon imouto even with black ribbons :p

Wow dang, this arc was finished quickly. Origami sure is interesting too lol, kind of weird we never really got to see why she took Yoshinon. I don't think that Yoshino's kiss had as much impact as Tohka's ... also not to mention, if that's all he had to do why didn't their first kiss seal away her powers? Maybe by then she wasn't "in love" with Shido yet or something. Tohka seems to be struggling with her feelings too :( Glad she kind of made up with Shido. Plus we have her battle dress, school uniform style XD Anyway a Spirit residence is built eh :P Looks like next episode is a onsen episode?! I guess of course an anime like this would have one of those XD I liked the ED this episode too! I guess each girl will have their own ED? :O

The hand puppet issue reminds me of Best Student Council.

I didn't expect Yoshino to take the initiative. And she will live with Shido and the rest now too, it seems.

The walk-in-at-the-wrong-time scene... Well done Shido, you made Tohka thought that you're about to kiss Yoshino.

I'm still wondering. Shido is working under the direct order of the commander AKA his imouto, who is also the commander of the AST. Yet, they still consider him as some random civilian. So is Shido working unofficially in a secret kind of department or something?

The collateral damage the AST does is almost equal to even Tohka. Especially to Origami who knows no boundary to fulfil her objective. I want to know more about the AST such as their suits, tech and who made all these?! Won't question why it's an only girls team though, the reason for that is obvious.

Kotori accidentally told Shido that his regenerative ability is a spirit's power... Hmmn... Interesting...

NO!!! If Shido does have to kiss every spirit in the end, WHY IS HIS KISS WITH YOSHINO NOT FULLY SHOWN!!! This unacceptable! Technically, even Tohka is not even 1 year old as she was just born outta nowhere, so kissing or fucking a spirit should absolutely be totally okay!

Another ED, so every spirit that has been kissed and saved will have the ep end with their specific ED. Nice!

I don't think anyone noticed, but in the scene where Tohka and Murasame talk in a coffee shop, there are two famous paintings. The one in the center is easily recognizable: Botticelli's The Birth of Venus, however, the second painting, on the right wall, in perspective and cropped, is difficult to recognize for these reasons. Reminds me of Renoir or maybe Monet. I do not know for sure. Could anyone tell which painting is on this easter egg? This scene happens around the 3rd minute

The main ship and the people in it are so useless. How are they even established if they haven’t even taken out a single spirit? There are sooo many plot points being glossed over like nothing. I hope things get explained.
