The opening looks dynamically awesome and the song sounds fantastic! Smile
If it gets picked up, I'll give it try sometime.

Reminds me awfully of High School DxD.

It's the same author of Aesthetica of a Rogue Hero ( Hagure Yūsha no Estetica), so expect tons of H.
...I mean, to me they're totally turn-off Rolling Eyes but hey Japan seems to like those kind of things so we can just bear with it I guess.


And totally nothing like High School DxD.
On any level.

Not just terrible but to see the only reason to give a crap about this pile (ecchi) we will have to wait nearly a year for the all of the BDs.

Having read the manga, I have the same feeling as HighSchool DxD about this: Loved the setting, characters and action, but loathed the ecchi.

I don't mind the ecchi, but that's a matter of preference. Also, Light Novels are always better than manga. Baka-Tsuki has got the novels for Testament completely translated up to Volume 2 and DxD up to Volume 17. For DxD, the novels ecchiness is less than with the anime though only as it's mainly reading with a couple pictures here and there that aren't even always ecchi.

For Testament, which you can find the novels under Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha, well... If you don't like ecchi, then you're better off just reading the manga and not reading the novels or watching the anime. The ecchiness in the novels, in both illustrations AND actual writing, is equal to or greater than the ecchiness of the To LOVE-Ru Darkness manga. The main manga was actually toned down A LOT in comparison to it's source adaptation, though there's an untranslated spin-off that's a bit more ecchi focused. Seeing as DxD's ecchiness level was increased with the anime, if the same is done for Shinmai, which it probably will, it's safer for you to drop the series now and pretend it never existed.

One last thing, Testament is better than Aesthetica by a landslide. The author did a lot better with Testament then Aesthetica so if you liked that series or didn't think it was too bad but still liked it, then you'll definitely enjoy this series.
