Also I just finished rereading Lolita. Why is master lolicon Nagi not reading dis masterpiece? :D
Nagi ur a lolicon?
I am dissapointed.
This season is pretty damn good btw, dunno who is complaining about it, every season has bad(most of the time the majority) shows, this one just happens to have a lot less of that.
I don't like DxD that much but its prolly cause I didn't read the LN? Guess you guys like that anime where they suck bewbs for power too(forgot the name).DxD is executed better then ur average ecchi harem because it also has one of perks of having multiple seasons thus they can get more world building going. I am not sure its executed better then ur average ecchi Harem in terms of plot(hue hue) but then again I can't think of one that is executed very well unless we count Monogatari n shit under that(which isn't really an ecchi battle harem).
Yea I asked Neo if the girl she voices is best girl the moment I saw her as a VA. Loved her as Shino in SYD and Lynn in Moe Pirates. He says I won't enjoy it so idk if I'll watch.

Haha what? If fanservice isn't why you watch DxD, I would suggest dropping it instantly because there are far better series for not-fanservice.
That's not how it works. Name another series as lomo as hs dxd without fan service.
I mean, any harem show with superpowers basically is the same for me (and harem in itself is a genre that rides fanservice pretty heavily, will be hard to find a harem show without fanservice). So yeah, if you think shows dealing with a loser with a superpower and countless babes with superpowers being head over heels for the guy for no reason are super cool, but you know, "not for the fanservice", I won't stop you :D
Edit: Haha, nice gifs!
It doesn't sound like you actually watch any of these shows at all....... Disregarding the shitty shows that take itself seriously aside, girls don't like the MC for no reason. Also, there is hardly any heavy fan service most of the time.
There isn't necessarily heavy fanservice like DxD's, but what I think is that harem is in itself a fanservice genre: the protagonist is often bland enough so that every male watcher can sort of identify (and I mean, there is even a point where he's just so average and so bland that you can't even identify because you feel cooler and more special hahaha), yet the guy is picking up 5+ cute chicks while not really trying/not being aware of it. I've watched my share of harem shows, but I really can't watch much more, indeed :D. Here are some recommendations for you if you like DxD so much that you don't even like it for the fanservice first (l0l). Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou has a cooler MC (still a trash anime though), and while not being harem per say, "Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai"'s premise is basically a copy of that of DxD, and main heroine is basically a less booby Rias: red-haired super powerful noble princess who contracts with MC for his life, more or less.
Edit: Wow, I'm a bit hurt that the 2 shows are 7+ rated on MAL. Well, I guess everything has a 7+ on MAL, haha. Goes to show that people don't fully use the 10-mark scale.
No second seasons. No sales. literally no-name light novels. These look like they're gonna be about as bad as absolute duo, or world break and are made just to be throwaways. please...
Haha I bow to you harem patrician, you seem to do your research well.

Well, maybe Daimaou was not objectively that bad as harem/ecchi goes, but I think I've watched it when I was already over that genre, so I may have judged it overly harshly. As I said, MC was cool.
Edit: But man, this thread is so funny sometimes. I have to defend myself when I say that Daimaou is a bad anime, and something like Death Note or, God forbid, Code Geass R2 is universally considered bad? Thank goodness I'm not here for recs :D
Death Note averages out to be meh, and Code Geass R2 was bad.

Code Geass S2 is definitely worse than Daimaou. The plot makes 0 logical sense, they were actively trying to making it as lomo as possible like a bad acid trip and people just goes "I don't get it! It must be so deep! Best evah!" No, you don't get it because it's just stupid, if you did get it you most likely need to see a doctor.
Denpa Kyoushi is dropped after ep3. Too damn boring.
//Seraph is so terribly predictable... Shinoa is carrying the show all by herself. I guess I keep this show for now as my guilty pleasure of her teasing the stupid MC.

We're like the same person.
Scary.
shinoa will get boring real soon.
Meh. I guess you read the manga? What about the common statement that it will become better later on (s2)?

I don't like DxD that much but its prolly cause I didn't read the LN?

I am not sure its executed better then ur average ecchi Harem in terms of plot(hue hue) but then again I can't think of one that is executed very well unless we count Monogatari n shit under that(which isn't really an ecchi battle harem).
Also Yoko Hikasa is gr8.
The show/manga is called Lolita? That is one glorious sentence! If the general atmosphere is like that, that could be interesting!
Also, I don't know why, but today, I was thinking about Shirou (UBW). I hate him so much, everytime I think of him, an Einzbern dies.
