Inaho cannot be a bad character, because Inaho isn't a character. He was more like a prop that had a voice actor and looked like characters.

+ Show Spoiler +His face when dying was probably the only part of the show he showed emotion. And that emotion was, "holy shit I'm dying"

Also, Tusk hiding the fact that he's a norma. You would figure he'll feel comfortable just because she's riding that machine and is likely a norma but guess not. They better meet again down the line!

Someone who read the source said that he'll be weak for a while (I think) so I came to peace with it lol. Animation wise, in all honesty, I don't even pay much attention to it since I still found the story interesting enough. These neighbours, why are they invading? just a land grab? what's the story there? What about border? Border ranks? How do they chose ranks? Obviously skills but death fight? What about all the other characters in the OP? I know they'll make an appearance or already have so what's their story? How does everything relate? Lots of questions and many more. I'm sure they'll be answered in due time (or have already been answered). The anime that I can say so far has pretty bad animation (or feels a bit static or something etc...) is Ushinawareta Mirai but I can understand why it would be hard to watch an anime if you feel its badly done Being weak is fine, just need to grow stronger, even if it takes long time. Being useless is not fine however. + Show Spoiler +With Yuuma doing all the fighting, I was just guessing that Osamu will remain useless. Of course Yuuma will leave his side one day, even go back to Neighbors side and they 2 have to fight each other, but that will be too cliche. At least I know he will grow now. Normally I don't mind animation that much actually. Some shows like Vanadis + Show Spoiler +![[image loading]](http://i.gyazo.com/0be7174ac105db0184e5ef752e1a5613.gif) like really what kind of horse-riding is that or even SAO + Show Spoiler +don't have gif but in ep17 when Thor fighting Thymm it just look dumb had their derp moment as well. It's just happen that we have UBW and Bahamut this season that push the expectation over the roof. Even put Ushinawareta Mirai wo Motomete on hold despite having Airi being a boss because weird animation. Story-wise, thank you for pointing out, I agree with you. I actually took certain things for granted, like how Trigger works (info-dumped by Yuuma in ep3 I believe) or the ranking within Borders. Just me being bored by the slow start of the story, and how tame the situation appears to be + Show Spoiler +Gates are contained within danger zones, Neighbors monsters are not that devastating yet, etc . Also, I like shows that give a lot of subtle hints more than straight up explanation. More room for speculation Oh, and I am afraid of bad story/bad ending haha. I read random manga when I am bored and end up with many undesirable story development/ending that sometimes I rather get spoilered before starting a new one lololol ya, I see your point. It's hard to tell but based on BR's comment, I can wait till he gets stronger so long as the other characters (and him to a degree) can continue the story well. Watch the latest episodes, you might get what you're looking for. I haven't watched past the first episode of Bahamut so can't say much. UBW has some amazing animation though, agree there but there are only so many anime that will be on that level (depends on many factors). I get what you're saying though, it feels a bit off at times. hmm well, I can understand why you would prefer subtle hints but I feel for this kind of show, giving up some explanations wouldn't really hurt it much in the long run. They're supposedly a ton of characters to introduce so the show will likely take its time to flesh things out. I mean, if you can't understand some of the more basic stuff due to assuming (due to subtle hints instead of show currently does), then you'll have a harder time understanding things based on those basic stuff etc... lol I think everyone is afraid of bad ending XD I see, good to know that the story is at least decent enough. Will give it another try for sure. Thanks Also, bad ending is ok as long as it makes sense. what I meant was trash ending + Show Spoiler +like how SAO LN has become. This will divide opinions, as the LN itself is already pretty bad, but the ending, or rather the path it's going down, it just meh. Something like Mirai Nikki where Yuno come back also count as meh ending Show nested quote +On November 03 2014 02:35 Numy wrote: One thing I really liked about the Sanderson books(Some of them at least) is that the explanations come from the characters themselves so it's entirely possible they don't understand everything properly thus giving you an incorrect view of how the world/magic/situation works. Feel people are far to quick to give you 100% accurate detailed information in stories. Did I miss something? Or you are giving Sanderson's books as examples? ah ok, well, just wait and watch for now

Also I didn't mind Inaho so whatever. I loved Inaho. He was always calm, collected and thought things through. Even if he didn't show emotion making it hard to relate for some people, I still liked his personality overall. To top things off, he was a badass though his final decision could've been better ><;

If you want a harem lead to admire, look no further Issei from High School DxD. Got over his mental block that made him do the "oblivious mc" song and dance then got all the women whether they be human, angel, or devil.

Harem protagonists are best when you throw them into an alternate world with face eating aliens and despair, and then they become a badass because of video games.

I like Keima well enough.

Trinity Seven has a good harem MC. Only thing is that he needs to start banging Lilith asap. Times a wasting buddy.

Trinity Seven has some of the most hilarious character interaction, especially Lilith/Arata and Lilith/Levy. Glad to know at least 1 other person agress with me that Lilith is the best

I wonder who will die, maybe both girls... Also, I don't mind that the dude from World Trigger is a total noob. That makes the story somewhat more interesting, seeing how he grows stronger etc. Though I do hope he at some point will be able to do anything. :D + Show Spoiler +haha ya, indeed! I can't say I'm 100% surprised though seeing as we've had some episodes where no one died before. I think both justice girl and Mine are going to die. Mine is supposed to avenge Sheele's death and I'm sure she'll be willing to give up her life if it means that she can finish off justice girl once and for all. Fun episode all around. Lubba was a boss with those plans there. Also, those knives, I was wondering if something was up and when they ended up stabbing her, it was like, yes! I knew it! lol.

So apparently Miyuki Sawashiro voices Elizabeth in the japanese dub of Bioshock Infinite.

I'm a bit excited for the caster part mainly due to Saber vs Assassin. Pretty sure they won't disappoint with the fight scene. They have made everything look pretty so far.

The whole arc was terrible. In the VN, that never happens, and you don't see Assassin again in Fate at all after the first fight with him. In Fate, after you kill Berseker, Caster attacks Shirou's houes, and Gilgamesh shows up during this attack and kills her. ok that's really different .. i'll just wait and see i guess
