Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai!: Koko. Ga. SHOUBU!

"Matsunaga Tsubame debut!" WTF!?!

Ahem, yeah so if my ramblings hadn't broken through yet, this is an adaptation of the eroge which I played.

Art is pretty okay and they've retained the game's acting cast, so there's nothing on the production front that I have major complaints about.

Story might be a bit more of a problem as people might get lost by what's being presented so far, players not so much. Personally, I don't have a problem where they go, but starting from the intro/prelude might be for the best so people get a better standing of what's going on.

In closing, I see they've decided to remind the us that Yamato loves the ass.

He drank Cola instead of Dr. Pepper, not a good sign.
But seriously that was a really fun and exciting first episode, I'm looking forward to seeing more of this and I hope they can keep the energy and budget up.
Actually this show really reminded me of Baka Test, just because of the class wars yada yada, except that Class F wasn't really at a huge disadvantage or anything, they're just poorer.

Something I'm surprised about is how restrained the service is in the first ep. The PV gave me the impression that this was going to be a heavy service show. Ah well I guess time will tell.

BTW, yes the director did handle schooldays, but you shouldn't take anything from that. The worst it'll go is Yamato gets raped forced consensual sex by one of the girls (probably Miyako) on account of he's weak as hell.

Yeah actually I expected a lot of service from this show and not from C3, which ended up being a gallery of pantsu shots.

Most of this episode was a bit of a waste, but the closing has greatly piqued my interest. Possibility that they work in the true route?

Yeah the whole dog chase felt like a filler episode, but I suppose the weapons facility and ninjas were important.

Finished Momoyo route today, fun times. Maybe I'll do a write up on the Kawakami War to show the difference between the show and the game.

Also, those ninjas are the main bad guys in the game. They're just in concealing garments, though we already know who they are.

I like the game OP better:



And then there's the Fandisc OP:

Oh LOL they even used the BGM from the game:



I would totally play that game.

Otherwise it's the usual Yuki monologue segment, though I think they stretched that part WAY too long. Well, there was more hadaka apron yuki, which I'll always approve.



Tsundere Gen is still the best though.

I hope this show goes somewhere soon.

Well character focused eps are done at least, unless they start focusing on the men...

I wasn't exactly thrilled either. Need to go back to that true route thing back in ep 2...

This show is so close to getting dropped.

Chumara wrote:This show is so close to getting dropped.

Actually this was much better compared to the last two and I had plenty of laughs, though not quite as good as it could've been. The material when they're at school was always the better stuff anyways. Well, except for like whenever Frank appeared and threatened to drop a satellite on someone or just airstrike an area for the lolz.

To be fair, I'm probably enjoying this show more because of the game, which seems to be the general impression I'm getting from the English side. I know some people are just drooling to play the Kokoro route after ep 5.

LOOOOLLLL!!!

Wow, they just took a funny short skit and ran crazy with it, and then combined it with a variation of one of the events from Chris's route for even more LOLZ!

Side note: Frak, Koyukie needs a route!

I would have dropped the show this episode had the guy with the narrator voice for Hayate not had that meaningful conversation with Naoe and alluded to some actual plot coming forth.
Seriously this episode was one of the most retarded things I've seen recently.

I think the first episode gave you the wrong impression of the game. Fights while important (and usually serve as the climax of the routes), take a backseat to the more important focus on interactions of the family. Plots usually don't happen until like 60-70% of the game is over.

Also, there are A LOT of sexual jokes in the game so the episode wasn't far off the mark.

Side note: This show is also educational, now you know what fellatio scenes sound like in eroge.

Plots, this show has plots?

Kind of want to play the Tatsuko route now... Damn, this show is making the January wait HARD!

Also copyright strikes again, LOL.

7 and 8 were good, glad to see this show actually doing something finally.

I would've preferred the show continue being a comedy. Still, 4 episodes. Wth are they going to do?

This show was listed as 24 on MAL and now it's been changed to unknown status, you really think it's only going to be 12 episodes?

Look at the drama, that doesn't exactly scream 24 eps.

More um... something. I dunno, the whole politics thing seems like a bad mix for this show. If they wanted guns and stuff they should've just had Frank go crazy or something. Well, to be fair at least they're working on setup so it's not "2 episodes left, drama hammer" ala KimiAru.

As for the cyborg yuri... I prefer my women to have things like arms and legs, I don't think that's being unreasonable.

Anyways, Guile and Gates references. LOL, I greatly enjoyed their scenes, probably because of Guile's acting.

Best I could find was a demo playthrough of S demo:


Play starts: 1:50
Guile appears: 2:20

Guh, now I'm REALLY interested in the Tsubame route. Her eyes, they're just so inviting. GAH, why is Jan so far away!

This show needed more violent Cookie and then he dies!

This show needed to be like this since episode 2, glad I kept watching.

The hell, we seemed to have reversed roles because I found the show quickly plummeting. There's only so much that I can take from seeing the characters walk and talk, but I'm just going through the motions now.

The manga did a much better job at adaptation.
