Episode 10

Who he will choose is.... is going to be revealed after the break. It is like a bloody reality tv show.

It was sweet with the friend thing, I actually a little bit of water leaking from my eyes.

Also just figured out that the horse Sakura has a sakura petal shape on her head.

I bet he didn't make an actual choice at the end even if they didn't get interrupted. Anyways, I'll look forward to spoiler[Akane's match next time. It seems she'll be going up against her long time admirer Celia.]

Just pick Mio already. I bet the finals will be Celia vs Mio.

Likely. I'm going to predict that she will win.

EP 11

Can Mio get any luckier? Her side of the bracket was pathetic. She had a bunch of no names and the worst female, Bertille, on her bracket. Meanwhile the other bracket had Celia, Noel, Lisa, and Akane. If Mio was on the other bracket she would have lost early, but nope spoiler[she got gifted a bye to the finals.] I really hope the winner of spoiler[Noel and Celia's match wipes the floor with Mio, even if Takahiro chooses Mio in the end. It would be really cliche for a person who only started jousting for a month to win it all because she lucked out with a weak bracket and has "special eyes".]

As it's an OP that I usually skip, I only just noticed that they're jousting each other in it.

The way things are going it's obvious Takahiro will be helping Mio during the final match. As much as i wanted Noel to win, it wouldn't really be an epic final match if Celia wasn't in it. In my ideal world i'd like for him to pick Celia though just because Mio is just so dayum annoying to me.

I hope one day either Mangagamer or JAST can license the Visual Novel and the recent expansion. would be interesting to see how the jousting would work, and I have no doubt it's much better than the anime has been.

Episode 11

At first I was annoyed at where this episode ended, but in hindsight it is obvious what will happen. It looks rather stupid and a little sportsman like to spoiler[purposely get your helmet hit].

Finale

Omg it was so cheesy when spoiler[Mirelle stood up] that I couldn't help but laugh. At least spoiler[Mio did not win even though Takahiro picked him.] Honestly I did not enjoy this as much as Ricotta's other work Princess Lover. Both had similar settings, but PL at least had a stronger harem lead that was decisive. I am giving this a So-So.

Episode 12

I did not even need to see to figure out that spoiler[Mirelle would stand] and that the final spoiler[win would be by feather fly]. spoiler[Celia won like she] should have, even if spoiler[natural ability was supposed to overcome years of hard work].

It was not really that good of a series, the animation could have some nice moments, some okay ecchi moments, and an oversaturation of ecchi. Not to mention so many cheesy parts, as characterised by Mio. I think I will also give it a So-so rating, it just did not grab my attention that much with being quite mediocre.

I will remember this as the anime with horses, and Senpai... Pai... Pai... Pai... There were some ok running gags.
Funny little bit at the end, Sakura spoiler[(Takahiro) wanted to get ridden by the girls.]

It's funny, usually I have no problem forgetting that a show is based off of an eroge when I see one of these tepid adaptations that ignores the gratuitous sexual content, but for some reason, every episode, every situation, I kept thinking to myself -this is probably where they'd be having sex.
And in a way... I wonder if him being a pimp wouldn't have made him a more interesting guy. I mean, he's such a boring, empty, passionless character, a little bit of casual boning couldn't hurt! Instead they gelded that stud.

I liked it when Mio, who was a klutz, first started to learn jousting and couldn't balance the pole, she was cuter too with long hair. I watched this at the same time as Ladies v Butlers and both animes had an
episode where one naked girl sat atop another one's shoulders, like not a too common anime trope though.
