Is this thing the Asterisk war of the season?
>>156034845
>Asterisk war
more like Asterisk war 1.5
No, because it'snot a battle harem.
>>156034845
No because Asterisk doesn't have a single redeeming quality whatsoever
>>156034946
I think the only positive thing I can say about Ass War is that it has a hand drawn mecha while most mechas in anime are made in ugly CGi. The rest of the series is utter shit, tho
But with a worse MC
>generic MC
>tsundere
>deredere
>deadpan loli
>ojou-sama
>generic rival
I love when the promotial art already tells you everything you need to know about the series without the need of watching
>>156035520
The MC isnt really generic though, but he isnt good either.
>>156035520
>generic MC
He avoids many of the tropes, but falls into some of the inverse categories that are being used to """"subvert"""" the tropes
>tsundere
right on this account
>deredere
yep
>deadpan loli
remains to be seen if she's kuudere or dandere, but you're basically right
>ojou-sama
yep
>generic rival
fortunately not. He is actually pretty bro-tier sometimes.
Japan still struggles to write females outside the standard categories, but they're doing better on males, though a lot of that is just using the inverse of existing tropes and calling it innovative.
>>156035549
>but he isnt good either.
But he's OP?
>>156035496
Care to explain? I can't think of any MC near as bad as AW's MC, and that includes mortherfucking Kirito
>>156036342
He's more average not OP

>>156038282

Like this piece of shit? And they try to sell him as an underdog even though he curbstomps all of his enemies?
>>156038975
I'm talking about this thing
>>156038975
The girl bot had their human bits drawn, the mech bits were cgi. Big Robutt 4 UUUU was 100% CG.
>>156035520
What does the teacher friend fall under?
>>156039051
>>156039118
ah, yeah but I wish they'd do the fight scenes, it's ridiculous how much time studios would need then but the CGI is crap

We don't have shitposters trying to force a non-existent fanbase war this time around. Plus it's actually been fun so far, so not really. Helps that we haven't had one of these in a few seasons.

Completely forgot she existed. Was nice for the, what, half an episode worth of screentime she got?
Show was semi-interesting but then episode 2 happened and it fell back into routine and convention. Fucking LNs man
>>156038282
>AoE anti-magic skill
That magic only works before the activation of the magic and have a limited range, if the enemy throw a fireball out of the range or before the activation of the anti-magic skill, the fireball isn't cancelled, imagine breaker is more OP
>fist castor
>user of the magical arts
Well he is a experimented warrior unlike the student, that don't train offensive skills

It's pretty much Onii-sama except the terrorists attacked in episode two instead of at the end so everyone can suck MC's dick more.
>>156038282
He's mid tier at best. You'll see next episode.
He was the weakest royal magician only useful because of his rare magic.
>>156040904
(you)
Reminder that Cat has more magic potential than any current royal magician as confirmed by Albert.
She's the Mary Sue not Glen.
Just 10 hours left.
Could he beat Onii-sama?

Are you high or something? When was it ever implied that hes the weakest of them? Because he "died" to Riel? He'd never seriously fight them anyway since they are his friends.

>beating a genius engineer who can reset any damages, cancel any form of magic, is considered to be a WMD in human formwhile being supported by the most loyal imouto (wife) in the universe who also happens to be an insane mage
Duel would go like that sparing match in episode 2.
I only continue watching for the protagonist, who, after having lost hope for him in episode 1, made a pretty sweet comeback in episode 2, and turns out not to be a completely worthless beta faggot who can actually get shit done in his own way
Then again, I don't think that high will last the rest of the series
>>156034946
Kirin.
>>156045366
His special skill works well in surprise attack and when your opponent don't known about your skill
>>156045676
Bahamut was easily worse
>>156043246
>literal who character and two-faced bitch
By far the worst.
>>156045668
It also works perfectly fine if he just dispels active effects. Thats like saying that frontal nukes are worthless if the opponents can prepare for it. The idea is to find way to effectively use them anyway. Its the same with Fools World. If the opponents has to accommodate for the fact that you can just cockblock him from casting anything then the sheer existence of that possibility gives you a pretty good boost.

>>156045693
Antimagic was worse, also i heard that the author of Mahou sensou say that the anime was a mistake
>>156045834
Mahou Sensou pulled an unprecedented 7 volumes in 12 episodes.
At least AMA's LN was way more entertaining than it had any right to be
>>156045834
Antimagic is unironically one of the best battle harems.
>>156045676
>>156045693
Are we including Isuka as a battle harem?
Because if so no one has or will ever get a worse anime adaptation.
>>156046021
Oh god please don't remind me of that trainwreck. I'm ashamed that I actually finished it

This was the best part of Rakudai
>>156045720
>By far the best.
ftfy
>>156045834
Antimagic's biggest flaw was the shit budget they received. Loved the VAs they got and the LN blew the other source materials out of the water.
>>156041029
Sakamoto-kun would beat the shit out of both of them.
>>156043246
That's an odd way to say Julis and Kirin.
>>156043246
>>156046315
Yukarin was best ASSterisk
>>156046315
Because he isn't saying Julis and Kirin, he's saying Celica and Claudia. Reading comprehension is good, anon, and you don't have any.and your meme is dead wrong, so fuck off
>>156045910
>>156045955
>>156046266
Antimagic is good, i was talking about the anime version,that was rushed as fuck (don't having a good ending point don't helped much)
>>156046021
Isuca isn't a LN but is bad, i read the manga with a little hoping that was only a bad adaptation, but only remember that was shit, with a bad pacing and a horrible combination of SoL, fights and Echi scenes
>>156044603

>>156045308
dunno if its the asterisk of this season, but surely is Memeing quite well.
>>156038995
Fucking this. I like Rokuaka's MC but because he's not shy of utilizing actual common magic besides his original magic. Compare this other MCs who are one-trick ponies at best. It's always muh super special attack, muh magic negation, muh ability copy or shit like that. Not only with LNs, but with every fucking anime and manga protag. Shit like that should only be acceptable if everyone was special in a very specific way. Now most authors pull shit like that to highlight how "special" the MC is.
It's been literally ages since I saw a MC using normal elemental powers. And even then they're restricted to wind, lightning and fire.
>>156046428
Happy?
>>156046139
>Is autism fucking contagious these days
You must be new to /a/
>>156045910
It's not as if rushing it that much will inherently sink a show. Rokujouma did 6.5 in 12 and did a fantastic job.
Mahou Sensou just had a shit source, and no one involved in the project seemed to give a shit.
>>156045676
Mahou Sensou and IS2 are the bottom two, no question.
Let's flip the question.
What's the BEST battle harem?
>>156047053
Sky wizard academy
>>156047053
I like korean zombie desk car and rokuojima
>>156047129
Something about desk car that just went way over my head. The anime fucked up any chances of continuation while the light novels just kept adding girls that I couldn't fucking keep up. I used to love it but then it ended up like combat butler for me.
>>156044603
This pig meme needs to stop.

Its completely different. Asterisk is a magic academy designed to train students to fight and pit them into competitions with each other and other schools. In other words a battle academy.
The MC also has 4 or 5 girls I remember lusting after his dick and fighting each other over him.
All in all typical battle academy harem like radukai.
RokuAka is a school meant to teach students magic with no focus on combat magic. The plot centers around a princess hiding as a regular student and MC is her protector from assassination attempts. While liked by his students, none feel romantic towards him though sisti is obviously supposed to marry him later (typical female student whips slacker teacher into shape and marries later) Japs love that trope.
Its as much of a battle harem as something like harry potter.
>>156052892
>RokuAka is a school meant to teach students magic with no focus on combat magic
Except the focus is pretty heavily leaning on combat magic because the country is heavily militarized and most of the students are going to become soldiers. It's just that they barely started the curriculum and thus have only been taught the basics.
>>156053381
>the focus is pretty heavily leaning on combat magic
No combat mages are trained by the military.

He can only stop activation of spell.
Doesn't work if the spell already active in the first place.
