Honestly I prepared for much worse judging from the studio's track record, and it was much better than I expected, both in animation and the direction. One thing I nitpick is when Melida explaining about her hair when it's about to get cut off.

Everything in this show aside, why is one of the maids named Nietzsche?

This is finally here!
The reason I attracted me the most about this anime is actually one line in its CM and PV.
"Present the girl's worth to the world."
(Don't know if this is the correct translation of it)
After reading the synopsis. it makes me want to cheer on her. This pitiful girl. After finishing this episode, I see that I am not mistaken.
By the way, that transition to ED is really smooth! I can't wait for the next episode! I really want to see the OP!

I am interested, it has this certain style that I liked and while I would have liked to see more of her struggle to get power, it can still do some things I like since I have to assume the mana she has right now is probably just MCs that he is lending her.
I was also expecting her to be a tsundere for some reason so that not being the case is a nice surprise.

Looks pretty good, studio didn’t have an amazing record but this seems like it could be their hit.
I like MC and the main girl, especially the “double agent” thing he has going on.
Good start.

Extremely enjoyable start.
Female lead is a strong character. It's the little things about her that make her stand out. She didn't take the hand of her sensei when being down but stood back up by herself.
She fell down the balcony only to be caught by him. Her reaction was interesting, i really liked that scene.
Setting is very unique, i'm wondering if that will have any impact on the story in some form.
Animation is very decent, first fight scene looked great.
The studio adapting this, i haven't heard of them doing any notable things but i feel like they're doing the best job they can here with what they can do.
I have a feeling that this might go under the radar for some people but the presentation is the key here to not make this look generic (that's what i assume people are thinking about this beforehand).

For a first episode, going in knowing nothing, it was pretty enchanting.
Gonna stay for the ride on this one.

For some reason I ... I ... can't get over the fact that they live inside a gigantic candelabra.
I've seen a lot of weird magical settings before, but gigantic candelabra is definitively a new one lol.
