| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oop, look what Yukina discovered. I got a lot of face palm moments with Sayaka this episode tbh. Inb4 she falls for Kojou as well. I already spotted a somewhat jealous Yukina. Dat kiss at the end there. Oh boy, it looks like Asagi made the move first. IT BEGINS. |
 |
| There are many reasons for Yukina to be NOT HAPPY !! |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Asagi made the first move. Thus, the harem begins. Fight was okay, didn't really care much for the villain, hope the next arc is better. |

| That kiss at the end and that major mosebleed lol. |
 |
| Asagi truly is best girl. |
| Awesome ep!! Seems like Kojou's using Touma's trademark of falcon punching every enemy XD Nice going Asagi!!! She got the first kiss! Didn't expect that one. Now he knows she likes him hehe <3 Asagi <3 So cute with that kiss :D...And she totally owned with her job. Deciphering it that quickly ^^...Still waiting for her to find out about him being a vampire. For Sayaka...Shit! I knew that it was too early to judge Sayaka with her being bitchy and annoying in the first ep she appeared and I thought she'll get more likable but I didn't expect to love her this much by the end of this all. This ep made her equal to both girls for me which I didn't expect will happen. Her interactions with Kojou were really fun. And the way she asked him to suck her blood was cute/hot! >.<...Dat Neck *A* ...Her pinching his cheek to make sure she's not afraid of touching him was adorable too :3 So yep...Sayaka is <3 too :D So yeah in the end Yukina is not happy at all. She's been up stepped by Asagi and equal to Sayaka now. She was amazing this ep though. Glad she didn't act annoying after finding out Kojou sucked Sayaka and her "Baka" at the end was cute. I expected more of a emo reaction to the kiss so that's a good one from Yukina ^^..accepting it as is. Also she did amazingly in the fights. Kicking ass :D Awesome harem so far though. All 3 girls are super likable. And hopefully they all won't give up on him making this really interesting romance-wise. Kojou not being 'that' dense is a plus too. Rarely do u find a MC refer to big when a girl is saying it as 'oppai' XD...Hopefully he'll get them all. He's a vampire after all ;P Nxt ep another to the harem. Kuudere? Well 2 more to the harem to go ^^ |

| Asagi best girl, Al-Nasl Minium is badass and it looks like Sayaka is falling for him too :). Looking forward to next episode |
| Kojou, you lucky son of a bitch. Got beautiful girls falling for him left and right. I have to say Sayaka really stepped up this episode. Asagi on the otherhand made the bold move. |
 |
| At least Sayaka turnes into a less annoying character and join his harem, but Asagi was surely bold here. But not to worry Yukina, I guess you'll always be the main one. |
| Great episode. Finally an action pack episode. Sayaka pretty hot. Happy to see Kojou get a new power. Must say Kojou's familiars look bad ass. Sayaka's sword transformation was awesome as well. Was not expecting Asagi to kiss Kojou. Happy to see her make the first move like that. Now Himeragi is pissed. Hope to see more episodes like this. It was fun to watch. That girl at the end of the preview. With the sliver hair and blue eyes was hot. Can't wait to see her. Dat horse. |
 |
| After seeing this episode, I really can't tell who's the best girl anymore... Really great ep, I must say. And huh, guess Asagi is still not aware of Kojou's powers but she is sure bold for rewarding someone just for 'falling into the sea trying to save her' lol. Those sayaka moments, that awesome fight scene and dat kiss... I could swear I'm hearing myself screaming kyaaa inside my mind non stop. |
| he's got a QUALITY harem here and looks like there are more to come :D |
| "Why the hell is it so easy to make people mad, and so difficult to make them smile?" -Kurosawa Dono |
| asagi all the way!!! |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| I love Sayaka !! She such a nice tsundere!! I like her dere Yukina get all mad and jealous, so this is how he got his new familiar, guess Kojou will get another one from Asagi and create a harem. How many girls will become a medium for his familiars ? :D Asagi made a bold move, but she had to do something before he got stolen. :D |

| Apparently each Familiar has their own Harem trope fetish and won't come out until he "strikes their blood". I think little sister is the final one. She'll release his true hidden potential. |
| What happened to all of the Sayaka haters!? Her change of attitude was far to quick imo, but that doesn't take way from her attractiveness. It did however make the scenes between her and Kojou seem substandard compared to him and Yukina. Other than that I liked the episode. |

| Didn't he say 9th familiar? Doesn't that mean his harem will consist of like 9 girls eventually if he wants all of those? XDD |
 |
| Well, Sayaka may be a better person now that she's not all up on bashing Kojou for no apparent good reason, but this attitude change came a little too fast and felt rather shallow. It was cute, but still. This was a nice episode overall though. But man, if Kojou has to suck someone's blood to gain new familiars...how many familiars does he even have? And lol at Himeragi's parting shot before the ED. Asagi is still in my mind the one Kojou should end up with (at least she's brave enough to go with her feelings), but of course, Himeragi's already kind of the designated lead here. Whatever, I guess. |
| it was the best epi of all those 8 epi aired till now , enjoyment level of this epi max 5/5 !!! |
| INC tons of jealousy. That kiss at the end was very cute! |
My Candies:     |
| I can't believe it! A harem where the girls aren't bashing the MC every chance they get and are actually likeable and rational most of the time?! Halleluyah! But Asagi-chan is being quite bold here, I'm liking it! :3 |
"Rejoice! We are humans— we are the most talented people! Precisely because we were born without any ability— we can achieve anything— this is the will of the weakest race!" – Sora, ‘No game No life Vol.01’ |
| If you ask me this isn't even romance nor it's a full on harem, he's just using them for his powers, he doesn't have feelings for any of them. :/ Still pretty nice episode, enjoyed the fighting, even tho I still don't know are Vatler and Yaze allies or enemies. |
 |
| OMG. I loved it. Kojou sucked Sayaka's blood to awaken his 9th familiar. That was like the best scene ever so far. <3 Sayaka's getting awesome as each episode passes. She's also likable now but from the moment where she appeared, I was already stunned by her beauty so yeah. Btw, I love all the girls here. It's quite unusual though for me to like all the girls in a show but Sayaka is the best imo, a close second and third for Asagi and Yukina. Best episode so far. Asagi is on the move. DAT kiss at the end. |
| I was not expecting that kiss at the end. Oh boy, this should be fun : ) |
| well now that i stopped expecting much from this show and changed my perspective to Ecchi Harem with a mix of action it isn't half bad for that case. Looking forward to the next girls that join Kojou so far the girls are pretty good was worried about Sayaka with that cringe worthy attitude only bad thing about her but i'm glad that changed :). |
 |
| And the second arc of the show has come to an end, mostly episode is all battle against Gardos. Now I'm starting to like Sayaka now when she is being to shy around Kojo XD. Pretty good teamwork on taking out Gardos. Now Kojo has a new familiar after sucking out Sayaka's blood, pretty good imo. Kind of an unexpected move from Asagi at the end. |

| I'd prefer KujouxAsagi, but unfortunately Yukina is pretty much guaranteed looking at anime cover art and opening. Still, can't believe Asagi totally forgot about the incident on the rooftop, since she obviously didn't forget all that happened, asking that question after waking up. I understand that she had a lot happen after that, but I'd personally be wondering what was going on with him. At least as far as relationships go she's taking the initiative. |
(Almost) 13 years on MAL! ()__() (='.'=) (")_(") |
| Pretty good episode, nice new familiar. |
| I really thought Sayaka was yuri. And now there's a harem >.> Overall good episode. |
 |
| cot dayum. so many best girls wuttodo |
    |
| Hmm, the ninth familiar. I counted 5 girls that are likely to be in the harem, so I guess there are 4 more girls to be included, since the newest addition id the 9th familiar. The Ancient Weapons sure got their power decreased. |
| I like this show. It's like what Campione would be if it wasn't fucking terrible. |
| ASAGI FTW ALL THE WAY MAN. HOPE SHE BEATS YUKINA. |
 |
| THAT LAST KISS, UNEXPECTED. Btw, so another one entered in Kojou's harem, I'm expecting to see later on, Kojou sucking blood on Asagi for a new familiar then. DarkDooM2 said: Asagi truly is best girl. I'm with you brother. |
 |
| So apparently that was the 9th familiar? (or was it 11th, I forgot). So is he gonna suck a different girl for each of the others? Jeez this guy. Oh, and did anyone else notice that terrorist leader guy driving the mech with only 1 arm? Wut. |
| As expected, he controlled a new familiar but the demon horse sure looks cool. Akanezora said: THAT LAST KISS, UNEXPECTED. Btw, so another one entered in Kojou's harem, I'm expecting to see later on, Kojou sucking blood on Asagi for a new familiar then. DarkDooM2 said: Asagi truly is best girl. I'm with you brother. Yea... Asagi just got more bold (and thats good) Can't wait to see a harem war break out |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| Poor Yukina... Dat kiss though. |
| Notto zisu shitto agein! These cliche misunderstandings have got to stop. I guess Paper Noise will be the next girl to offer Koujo her blood. I can hear it now: "Oh, Koujo baby, please take my sweet, succulent, warm, and tantalizing blood into your mouth and allow it to become one with you." |
 |
| Harem completed... Oh wait, the loli teacher is missing! symbv said: There are many reasons for Yukina to be NOT HAPPY !! The war is coming! |

| Hot kiss our main character is slowly, but surely building his harem ;) |
Cirris said: I think little sister is the final one. She'll release his true hidden potential. A harem is not complete without the imouto character. Besides sucking Sayaka's blood and the Asagi kiss at the end, the episode was just so-so. I can't put my finger on it but there's something about Kujou that I really dislike. Or maybe the show as a whole hmm. It's still kind of fun though. Team Asagi! |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Pretty good episode! DAT KISS THOUGH! :) |
| It's been a long time since I see archer in action. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
