5tyujk said: I just don't think atp the anime deserves to be below a 7 to put this in the same tier as trash isekai or rental girlfriend would be crazy. The thing with trash isekais is that they are very focused, you know what to expect and easy to follow. With this anime most complains above are about direction. It introduces many different concepts and genres and haven't mastered any of them. IMHO simple thing done well is better than complex thing done poorly. jdcc said: Is it normal that all the main characters nowadays are so abnormal and completely lacking in logic and self-respect? That's anime in a nutshell. Given how popular some titles are, audience love it. But I agree with you. |

The harem in this one is absolutely insane — he’s got an android, a kind of Newtype-style girl, and yet he turns both down because he’s still in love with his presumably dead stepsister.
| @Kenchiin Maybe it's because he wants to figure out if the love of his life still alive, dead, in suspended animation or whatever before moving on with his romantic life in the new world? |

| @Avvenirista I am not against it, I just can't stop imaginging the writer in a room explaning the plot like: BUT WAIT, HERE'S MORE, HE WILL SAY NO TO ALL THE GIRLS, BECAUSE HE'S HANGING ON HER DEAD SISTER lmao Truly the 25th annivesary project we deserved from PA Works. |

| It's a good episode. All the female characters are cute. I wouldn't call it a harem yet, but I'm more curious about why the hell Yuugure suddenly started kicking instead of killing. Or maybe since he didn't marry her, so she's giving him a headache in the future, in the form of stupid but living enemies. |
| they KNOW Amorus outfit bad af |
     |
| i liked it right up until the end why the weird incest subplot why is she in love with him they grew up together and their relationship is antagonistic 😭😭😭 |
| I understand and respect Akira for still being faithful to Towasa. But to reject both Yuugure and Amoru... Good episode |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| What does "ehlsea" actually mean, or is it just a weird word for marriage? I know it has some similarity, as the two mafia types have to find one and produce an heir. |
| ????? so is this show actually a goofy lighthearted harem tabi or what, is it gonna switch to the gore feast it was randomly at a moments notice or was that simply a bait / just showcasing the darker undertones like slaves i mean this is what i though the show would be after seeing the OP and visuals but im not sure still on what it actually wants to be. |

| My god there are a lot of whiny tourists. If you don’t like it, go play DnD and take your moaning and groaning with you. |
| If she is not blood related she is free to be dated. -Gigguk I think both siblings will help them out for their goals. |
| The infiltration into that prison definitely solidifies this series as the Surströmming of the season. No cap. |

Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| It's annoying me to no end how callous and evil OWEL are and we are just supposed to accept it with no explanation. |
| Amoru literally just puts on a piece of cloth over her underwear that doesn't even cover up much what difference does it make if she has that cloth on or not!? |

"How the hell did we end up here?!" -Akira
Exactly, wtf happened here man, the direction of this episode is just so weird. First of all how tf did Akira infiltrate that massive heavily-guarded prison in the first place? How did he even know where she's taken to? What even in his plan? They skipped all those important steps and it's just so stupid...
Then suddenly we arrived at yet another new town and now both girls want to marry him and they go to a matchmaking party to prove their love for some reason? And there's yet another subplot about a mafia with 2 heirs competing and the sister actually wants to get incestuous with the brother but can't so she'll marry Akira instead? Where is this going bruh 😅
After eps 0-1 I expected this show to have a very serious tone with tight plot, so this episode just felt REALLY out of place. It's still a good looking show and somewhat fun to watch, but now I need to recalibrate my expectation going forward. I'm just waiting for the big reveal / twist to happen regarding the main plot.

| @Arcanine369 it suddenly started going downhill. I hope at least we get a good ending. |

| @rassilon it was said in the 2nd episode, I guess.. that LC which was Life Companion about to be introduced by Towasa before Akira got shot. Which was the use of cybernetics in Human/living together with AI or becoming an Android something like that. That word might have lost its meaning over the years ending up as Ehlsea instead of LC. |
| Not a good sign at all when the episode starts with yet more terrible writing by allowing Akira to break into a high-security prison with zero issues, only to decide on the escape that there suddenly is all the security in the world and that they're a threat. Akira's determination to go so far for Amoru is completely unjustified and hence impossible to take seriously. In general, the pacing is absolutely abysmal and just doesn't work. That whole prison break sequence felt like it could and should have been a whole episode, rather than just a rushed 5 minute sequence. And, against all logic, it's a fucking harem when the MC EXPLICITLY HAS FEELINGS FOR ONE SPECIFIC GIRL? Fuck right off with that. This is an easy drop, a garbage original anime that doesn't deserve the time of day and, dare I say, even feels AI-written potentially. |
| The panty shots from Yugure fighting the prison guards reminded me of '90s and early 2000s anime, good times. On that note Amoru's outfit continues to be sexy whether or not she realizes it. Regarding the FICA event, with the introduction of the mafia siblings and the sister turning down the guys that were lined up I figured Akira would get her attention and he actually did lol. What I didn't expect was she is actually in love with her half brother (not sure if they're blood related at all , I don't think they are). Anyways, this episode turned from an action/adventure to more of a gag comedy/romance type which I didn't mind. |
Richlord said: From what I have see of OWEL, their current personnel, and in particular their officers, are arrogant dumbshits, who still hold power only through a monopoly on firearms.How did dude break into the prison alone, come on |
| Lord Cruelty V "But my Dreams they're not as empty, as my conscience seems to be" |
| Only 5 minutes dedicated to saving Amoru? This could be its own episode that will actually build Amoru's character and relationship with Akira and make me feel something. But no, scrap that and quickly make Yuugure and Amoru fawn over Akira, which admittedly was funny but could've just been in the next episode. After Fides and Kalcrom were said to go to the matchmaking event, it was obvious that Kalcrom would get interested in Yuugure and Fides in Akira, but in the latter we actually got something better: Fides wants to fuck her own brother, lol. Considering ehlsea is practically just marriage for the new age, you could say that sibling marriage is practically legal. But considering laws against procreation between the 2 exist (though no mention of laws barring sexual activity between siblings) and that their father will oppose it shows that the stigma is still prevalent to a degree. |

| It was surprising to see a robot's Pan-Chira since 2B. But overseas, even if it's a machine or non-human substance, it would likely be deemed inappropriate and regulated. From now on, this is a material of work only Japan can enjoy. |
| This elsie thing is both a solution and a problem, Akira has huge success, btw! |
 |
| So yeah ofc incest as well. They really throwing everything they can think of on this one. Love triangle and what not. Quickly losing hope, wait I didn't have any in the first place. |
 |
| man i really hate the MC, he’s a stupid weak little man. … he’s just naive and stupid for the sake of it .,. But unlike most of the other goody‑two‑shoes characters who actually generally have a narrative reason ... the MC in this show doesn’t. He’s just naive and stupid for the sake of it |
| Man I really liked episodes 0 and 1 but it’s slowly but surely losing its spark…. Weird pacing and the plot is taking strange turns. I hope the anime can pick it up again cause there’s a lot of wasted potential, I feel |
| urgh. Since the anime's not gonna answer, how the fuck are they walking around totally undisguised with no issues when they should be fugitives at this point? Looks like we're heading towards some kind of nonsense harem with a wet bag protag at the center. Yay. More incest. Yay. |
“No matter where you go, everyone’s connected.”   |
| I've watched 3 episodes of this, and so far, I’m not impressed. No loli fanservice. No incest, and a lack of fan service in general. The story is okay. But not great. The whole “getting frozen and waking up in the future” thing has been done before. And the animation is lackluster compared to what P.A Works has been done in the past. (can’t wait for Lycoris Recoil season 2). I like the gore, however. That came out of nowhere and lifted things for me. But if anything even remotely better comes around, this may be my first drop of the season. |

This anime started so good with episode 0 and 1 and then just went to the bottom at the speed of light, such wasted premise
| @ptcmty004 I totally agree, this might be the fastest I've seen a series incorporate so many bad anime tropes after a strong first episode. We already got incest subtext, useless MC, girl obsessed with MC for no reason, overly evil card carrying villains, fanservice character of questionable age, and now a harem. I kind of want to drop, but I also wonder how many more it can add. |
