I thought it was really fucking slow. Not much seems to have happened to the main cast at all. It's the same plot more or less of last season with 2 new characters who aren't really all that interesting. | ||

Real/Super is traditionally a SRW unit type classification (in which the Arbalest is a Real). You could make any number of stupid arguments trying to make dozens of Gundams (anywhere from the original, to Turn A, to Zeta, to V2, to Strike Freedom, to 00 Raiser, etc) to be "Super Robots". But if you sit here and try and tell me that the Zeta Gundam is a Super Robot, and not a real Robot, I'm going to laugh at you. And if you want proof that the Zeta Gundam can do really bullshit magic things: + Show Spoiler [Zeta Gundam ep49 spoilers] + Long story short, you can make any number of arguments that "Real" Robots such as the Arbalest are actually Super Robots. But I'm still going to laugh at you, since when it comes down to it, there are barely any "Real" Robots in existence who don't run off of magic. THAT is why it is blurry. Edit: Out of curiosity, did you or any of your friends used to troll /m/? Because this is a classic troll topic on /m/, on par with such subjects as "What makes something a Gundam?" | ||

First season we barely got anything at all, heck I even questioned if there was anything at all. Second season they finally give a bite, more even. I dont follow the manga so Idk how the pacing is there, but I hope they stay consistent with the way they paced it in the anime. | ||

Pretty good I'd say, I actually really like how much they're exploring Hayato's character, and how he's not just a cardboard cut-out. Tennis guy's scenes always make me laugh a bit too. The current setting is pretty awesome as well. On the whole, a bit above decent show. Meh it is a rather half ass attempt to give him character. In their haste to hit vol 6 for this season of 1 cour, they ended up cutting a lot of stuff. Unfortunately, that includes a lot of the earlier vol stuff about Hayama that makes this vol make sense. Then they also cut out the things with him this vol too, so if they are going to fit in the conclusion of the vol involving him it is just going to be a lot of derp. Whatever, Yukinon swimsuit next week, I'll live with that. EDIT - All the cutting is going to come back to bite them in the ass for vol 5 and 6, but not like they care. Oh well, for something that I originally started because of Hayamin the series + books has given me more mileage than I expected out of it. It'll do. | ||

It took me some time before getting into the story. Where I am right now, things are pretty weird ; I have a hard time following the thoughts of the main char :/ Not sure if I've missed something :S It feels a little bit similar to Welcome to NHK, just a little bit | ||

First impressions after one episode + Show Spoiler + What the hell so much fanservice? The railgun ability is really cool and I like the whole take on psychic powers. Middle schoolers doing everything ugh. Why is it always middle schoolers? I like where this is going. And as always, the amount of fansubs options confuse me. | ||

To watch Railgun you have to watch Index, and that's 24 ep x 3... well not have to but it's a spinoff from Index and without it alot stuff won't make sense. | ||

I actually can't remember if I watched Railgun or Index first. But honestly, given how much background info they kind of provide to you in Railgun, I don't see how you would be that confused because most of the confusing stuff is all the magic and stuff they throw around. | ||
