Yes, I'm sensing a season 2 as well based on episode 12/finale. Overall, I thought the series was a bit lackluster although entertaining at various moments.

I wouldn't mind a Season 2 in the future as this latest episode gives some hints of it.

On the one hand it wasn't a good show. On the other, Akatsuki was awesome and the plot is starting to pick up.

If there ever is a second season I might check it out.

definitely not as good as i was hoping it would be. I liked the late arrival plot far more than Akatsuki's bizarre behavior. a second season with more plot wold be nice.

I enjoyed this show and hope for another season, but I think we can use less focusing on boobs and more focusing on the shounen action and magic/combat.

If I disliked Campione! and Demon King Daimao, should I even bother with this show? They seem fairly similar (demon kings/god slayers/superpowers/academy for magic/harems/etc.), so I'm a little hesitant. Not to say I dislike those particular themes outright, but the aforementioned shows were so all over the place that they were difficult to even follow along with, let alone enjoy. They also really piled on the epic cheese and, at times, were rambling mythological infodumps (especially in the midst of battles - which ruined some really good action sequences). If AoaRH at least balances its themes adequately and doesn't pull random characters/battles/information out of its ass at inopportune times, I'd probably give it a shot.

Yeah, Bamboo did indeed hate it on a "kill it with fire" level. I thought she'd have more tolerance than that, given the other dreck she's put up with - and even liked - over the years.

its bamboos pinion it doesnt matter if she didn't like it all depends on if you like it. you honestly going to base your decisions on someone elses opinion? it just honestly upsets me when people do that. oh and whats this about whole abused women and rape victims and all this? have you ever heard of hentia its literly a fkin genre so really get over that.

he asked for an opinion, and I gave him one. sure, it wasn't mine, but I led him to one. and if that helps him make up his mind, mission accomplished.

And really,

it is not my justification but where you getting that the show is saying its ok. that shit happens all the time. it has been covered by other animes i am sure of. there areshows prob a lot worse then this one and i think its bullshit it was a decent show a little slow at first but it started to pick up. i saw nothing promoting rape or child molestation. no flashing sigs that say "hey this is ok to do why not try it at home". i dont know if im supposed to watchit and be like "ok pedobear time" but when i watched it i just wanted to watch more episodes i didn't care aboutthe boob grabbing and all the bra snatching. there are people that do that in the real world why is it all of sudden bad in media. i want you to give me a detailed list on how this shows promotesthisor says its ok to do.
