Episode 1

So it's like Testament of New Sister Devil where they sort of have sex, but they don't actually have sex. Apparently too sexy for some TV station called TVQ that it got dropped from broadcast on it. So am I imagining things or was the animation actually surprisingly good? The way they did censorship was pretty interesting. Also both the opening and the ending were pretty good. And it's one of these shows again where most of the girls have ridiculously large tits. Pfft.

So. It was... not as bad as I expected, I guess. Or it was.

So lewd...

Idk how to feel about the first episode. It was pretty much everything I had expected with the ecchi content and little plot in terms of storytelling. This is going to be the eye candy to watch for the season. Twisted Evil

I'm usually one for these types of ecchi shows, and being a big supporter of Testament of Sister New Devil I thought I would enjoy this... turns out I was wrong.

It was so bad that I would have been more comfortable watching porn. Okay, the subtitles I had were extremely pants so that didn't help, but it was just awkward and the fan-service felt far too forced.

"Grab her breasts!"
"Why?"
"Just do it! Humanity depends on it!"
"W-wha..."
"The finger... use the finger!"

Maybe I'll give next week a go, see how I'm feeling.

Nothing's too ecchi after Valkyrie Drive, and also Manyuu Hikenchou and Qwaser. Gonna watch it anyway 'cause boobs, but I doubt it's breaking any new ground in terms of content.

2 lewd for me.

My reputation probably doesn't suggest this, but I'm actually quite old fashioned. I still believe that sex is a special thing that should be done between two people who truly care about each other, so seeing borderline intercourse being flaunted so casually bothers me. I was okay with Testament of Sister New Devil but that's because most of the explicit stuff was saved for the Blu Rays and it had good enough story and characters to carry it without that stuff.

AT-X is airing this show uncensored but I think I'll just stick to the image dumps on Sankaku Complex.

You know how people were complaining about Berserk and the CG at points "just looked ugly", yeah that's what I felt about this show especially with shots of the fortified city, sure it might not be the FOCUS of the show but it stuck out more than the oppai for me.

So anyone sticking around to see the breast examination can have fun.

well, that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Pretty dumb, but it does look good. Had no idea Hisasi was the illustrator for the LN. I like his work. I'll keep watching for now

So they revealed Kizuna's ability in front of the whole school and well...that's pretty embarrassing if you ask me lol

It's really weird with the censorship though...but I think BDs will remove that.

Episode 2

Ha! Either get killed by aliens or get molested by a pervert. Choose your poison. Laughing Uhh.. so is Yurishia really sensitive or what. All Kizuna did was touch her boob. That transformation sequence, the music and how Yurishia obliterates that first alien were all pretty cool actually.

I've really fallen in love with that ending. The switch thing, like how it keeps switching left and right, it has going on is really cool. I wonder if they'll gradually show those characters in full color and all or if they'll just keep the black thing. What do I have to do to unlock them?

I actually thought that was pretty funny. The best thing to do with a ridiculous and perverted premise is to straight out throw it out there and own it. That it was his sister saying it all seriously and asking for more volunteers, made it all the funnier.

Well if this is another Testament, it'll be crunchyroll streaming exclusive, so no BD and all censorship forever.
What's the deal with that, anyway?

Apparently, there's another channel that airs it uncensored but it's a few episodes behind.

Having gotten sick of the censoring I watched the third episode through another source as uncensored.

Episode 3

This is kind of clumsy, I am really not a fan of the forced to get funky plot, even if the main character is kind of on the side of not forcing things.
