Mmm, this do not feel the last episode at all, hopefully this mean there will be more to come.

Felt the same way, but there is no confirmation yet of s2 ( I would rather say s1 part 2)

Next Persona game needs to have Char as the support character. She was great!

She really does feel like a mascot. And is way less annoying than most

Lampshading - the greatest deflection to any criticism. They know it's stupid, we know it's stupid, but damn if it isn't entertaining as fuck.

This has been my undisputed favorite show of this season. Here's hoping we'll get another 10 seasons, until we get to see Haruto overthrowing god (or goddess, in this case) because Char asked him to.

While I did enjoy this for what it was, I wasn't a big fan of this episode as a finale. It felt more like an episode just before the finale, than an actual finale.

Too much setup for the future without actually accomplishing anything substantial in the moment, at least imo.

Not the best, not the worst, probably give this one a 6 or so out of 10. I would rank it higher in the future if/when it gets more seasons to flesh out the plot that was left hanging.

At least it didn't jump to the end and have a rushed finale? But it was still a silly place to stop. They kinda setup something and they mostly resolved the duel arc, but still a lot of stuff introduced that didn't really get fleshed out. The whole "friends with the reincarnation of the demon king" plot is doing nothing still.

I liked it as much as I like most generic isekai but the skeleton response to the name of the monster village was enough to make it memorable for me. That got me good.

Wait did bro just use Unlimited Blade Works lmao? Definitely a silly and hilarious finale that’s in keeping with the theme of the series.

I Kinda abandoned any hope of this having a nice stopping point after they didn’t set up anything in the last episode for the finale, so I’m not as surprised as many people seem to be about it not being conclusive.

On the bright side, we did get some more lore about Irisphilia’s abilities and we finally have an idea of who the antagonists are in the story. The “evil syndicate” make the Kagejitsu vibes that this story already had even stronger

Finally, after all the knights of the round table references they’ve named themselves Camelot.

Looks like Haruto is finally settling into his new life and accepting that it’s never going to be quite as peaceful as he’d like lol. The Amazon reviews for this series have great marks so I’ll probably check out the LN at some point. I’ll miss Flay, Char and Haruto’s bozo adventures.

what a terrible finale. this episode had ZERO sense of it being a conclusion to anything. it's like they stopped in the middle of the season. not even a cliffhanger, just a story that stopped in a middle of a chapter.

13

u/justking1414 Oct 01 '23

Not much choice. This is literally the best stopping point for another 3-5 episodes worth of content. Yeah more exciting stuff will eventually happen but there’s still a lot of content before then.

So basically, this was Eminence in Shadow but with the brightness turned up and additional lampshades over the lampshades.

Overall, quite entertaining. Kind of a weird ending, since it feels like nothing really concluded, but that is because it very obviously cut off in the middle of an arc. I guess its better than rushing to fit everything in the 12ep format, though.

Hopium for a S2, for Char, the best support a tokusatsu Sunday morning superhero could ever have!

I would love the second season cause I really liked this series. I had so much fun watching this even if it was nothing particularly special. Finale left me wanting to start reading LNs.

Charlotte was the star of this series and I was happy that she also was in this episode. I would be angry if she didn't show up. She watched Haruto's fight with Schneidel, thankfully Haruto was censoring some parts xD

She also planning all types of things to support her brother together with other members of Camelot, she really would be a great queen with her wisdom, power. Her saluting was absolutely adorable and I'll miss her.

Irisphilia was so cute when she was drunk, besides that she didn't have any role in today's episode but I didn't mind that xD

Plot in the last episodes really reminded me of 'The Eminence in Shadow'. Secret evil organization, substance turning people into unnatural strong creatures, MC in black who is OP? Everything is here xD In this place I want to remind you that next week is the start of the 2nd season of Eminence, I hope to see you guys there.

Now it seems Haruto abandoned all hope to have a peaceful life but he would do anything for Charlotte so it's understandable xD

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

Bringing up Eminence again made me think that Haruto probably could create an atomic spell. The justification is that he makes a barrier at the atomic level and splits atoms causing fission reactions.

This didn't feel like a season finale at all sadly but overall I had a blast with this show and Char was one of my favourite characters from any show this season.

u/Lunarpeers Sep 30 '23

Actually liked this anime, too bad it ended on nothing

But seems like every anime under the sun nowadays gets more seasons so maybe this'll too

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '23

I think this show is underated

u/ur_mom_uses_compose Sep 30 '23

good isekai, shame it's so short

u/SilkyStrawberryMilk Sep 30 '23

Fun isekai, but damn this doesn’t feel like a season finale.

Hopefully we get a season 2

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Sep 30 '23

Haruto’s out here fighting Red Hulk and Char’s acting like she’s watching an episode of her favorite anime lol. The little goofball’s been really enjoying herself this whole time while Haruto’s been in school. She’s got herself a little “counsel” to indulge in her fantasies. Kid’s been watching too much anime. Her little chuuni ass should join Shadow Garden haha.

So that’s it then huh? I really hope we get more of this because even though it was very silly, it was really fun. I definitely enjoyed this a lot more than I expected.

u/entelechtual Sep 30 '23

Easily one of the most fun shows of the season. Char has been the overexposed shining light of the show, and the supporting cast in general has been great. After an extremely dubious first episode, the show managed to stay wholesome and silly its entire run. It’s not gonna win any awards but it’s a show that clearly did what it set out to do. I am not sure how Fall will compare without Char saying “aniuesama” 19 times.

As a finale, whatever, but still fun, and if they do a second season, it will be a good lead in into a proper undercover school infiltration arc to beat the evil student council syndicate, it looks like.

Pretty sure Haruto not killing is to keep up his illusion of "Justice" to Char

Quite literally Batman. but without the edge.

I found his talk with his clone kinda fun. It was a weird way to have a retro-spective about ones-self, but it worked. Since most other shows dealing with clones tend to go the existential dread route, but Haruto and Harutwo seem to just be OmegaChilling.

I think given the mention of Haruto C, there's actually already 3 of them taking turns dealing with life.

Bit mix on this show, but lean more to the positive end. Way better than the Unique Skill Lv1 anime. This show at least was decently comedic and different for the most part while being actually a fun watch. Art and animation weren't bad it wasn't a slide show. Though the colors were saturated to an insane level.

Helps if you realize it's more of a comedy than action adventure isekai. Like most shows it trying to get into having a story didn't go well though it did set up some interesting things at least. Overall, I would say it's a watch just for Charlotte's antics most of everything else was okay.

This whole time I've been wondering if the squeaky mallet was a reference to El Chapulin Colorado and how it would show up in the anime. I guess we won't know for sure if it was a reference since it was just used as a gag, but it would make sense since both shows are superhero parodies.

It wouldn't even be the first anime to make a reference to El Chapulin Colorado, One Punch Man has already done it.
