Should I look forward to this or is it some predictable generic shit?

I've only read the manga but so far it's readable at worse and enjoyable at best

It's nothing special. Girls are cute.

Manga starts very good and slowly trends worse, but it is fun and the aesthetics are great. You keep wanting something to happen, but then if it does, the plot development is stupid.

How so

Look forward to it if you’re a battleharemfag

Imagine how fun it would be.

Is it the strong and special girl that falls for somem generic below average MC who then suddenly builds a harem?

Is it porn?

Opposite of what you said

Weak useless girl that a superultrachad falls for and rejects any other bitch?

Kinda closer

Funnily, it kinda is what you describe but the below average one who builds a harem is the girl while the strong and special one is the male MC

No is a battle harem shounen for women (I call it BATTLE SHOUJO)

Why even watch anime is you hate predictable generic shit?

It's published in Ultra Jump, though. Do you know what shoujo means?

>shoujo means?
Manga with Girls as the principal demografic so like I said BATTLE SHOUJO

Perhaps you just don't realize that Ultra Jump's demo graphic is seinen since it is common for adult males to like younger girls

That is the funny part

Why are you writing it in all caps?

>blonde
>red eyes
>flat
>tsundere?
It's my AOTY

yes

Manga is okay.

Post best girl

Basically. Actual spoilers about the first arc as well as its basic plot. MC is an assassin sent to train a seemingly powerless girl from a prestigious family in magic. She has shown no magic prowess which is largely genetic indicating she may be a bastard. If she fails under his training and it seems there is no hope at all for her, MC's implicit mission was to make her disappear. Actual spoilers next. MC becomes enraptured by her and uses shady dark guild science to implant his mana in her. Though this still isn't the proper type of magic for her family and gives her a different class(Samurai, MC's class, yes I know) than what is intended(Paladin, her father's class) so he has to wing it and cover it up as best he can. The guy who ordered the hit however has also hired another organization on this subject which also has dark shady magic science that attempts to kidnap her and perform a different type of forceful magic transfusion to change her class to paladin. They are seemingly super powerful. However MC shuts down their efforts hard and tells them to go back and report lies as he is a half-vampire(yes, yes I know), vampires being the most powerful monsters in the setting. His wish to nurture the main girl being so high that she would let her slay him if they ever truly had to fight due to that fact.

Basically it's more of a shoujo plot veiled as a magic battle harem. Main positive is main girl is cute, quite obviously the intended winner, and that she's actually super diligent and has to work for everything she can because she's aware she's a worthless failure. Whether it turns out she's actually special down the line I don't know as I've only read what's translated of the manga.

I tried to read the manga in english, the first chapter already has what I suspect to be a serious mistake where at the beginning they said he killed all those guys in the room in 5 minutes which made no sense given the context of the paneling showing one short continuous scene so I checked the chinese translation and it was 5 seconds.

And picked up

>vampires
AND DROPPED

>vampires
PICKED UP

The anime is gonna need some serious help to not be a disaster, that studio is a mess
Mango and LN are great.

DROPPED AND PICKED UP

Holy shit. You were't kidding. This is a literal shoujo manga with a bit of fanservice and pantyshots.

Yes.

So there are a few noticeable differences between Volume 1 of the Light Novel and the first three volumes of the manga
-We see Elise's 1st round battle in which she takes on all five of her opponents on her own, it's a sequence of Elise being wailed on for no effect and then she goes SOL BRANDIS and blows her enemies away.
Except the gunner, she ambushes her first. This is a theme throughout the entire series: Gunners are serious business for everybody, do not fuck around with them.
-There's more time spent on Elise's morning before that breakfast with Othello and Rosetti, more lead up to how she feels about everything.
-There's a short story after the epilogue about the last day of training before Melida fights twintails

>the main girl is a washboard
It's shit.

The short story is a different kind of training: They're both in an abandoned mansion, Melida has a map of all the secret passages and knowledge of the traps, she's got ten hours to try and lay hands on her teacher.
Except she can't use any mana at all. This is to teach her how to approach situations when she's at a serious disadvantage, and what kind of mindset will lead her to victory - and what will defeat her before the battle is even fought.
It's surprisingly insightful, but not included with the normal version of volume 1, only the special releases. The story can be found in older releases of Dragon Magazine. I kinda want to TL it, pic related

That actually sounds enjoyably retarded. Will soon finish mahou shoujo site and have been thinking about finding another amusing fucking trainwreck and this might punch the ticket, thanks user.

Gay.

Most of the girls are cute flat lolis. That is an instant must watch.

>1 girl and 3 boys
I thought this was a battle harem?

Gay.

As an aside, when it comes to whether or not this is classified as a shoujo or serious business battle school series, I'd say it gleefully trespasses into both.
For example, the prologue of one of the LN volumes has Kufa being blackmailed in exchange for maintaining his cover, being thrown into a mission of national security involving fratricide, terrorism, innocents getting killed via collateral damage, all kinds of unreasonable dangers and hindrances, and one of the 3 Dukes asking him to Die For Them.
The next scene jump is Melida lovingly reading an embarrassingly sappy romance novel about a older commoner soldier drunkenly pronouncing his feelings for the younger princess and mourning about how it cannot be, lots of tears from everyone. Self insertion might have been thought about there.

Why is this allowed?

The setting where the girls are constantly in completely-exposed high-fashion lingerie is very distracting. This manga requires frequent breaks.

I don't know. It's fucked up, right? Makes me crazy.

Are they trying to claw out her boobs?

Envy. She is the only attractive woman.

He ends with the other sensei right?

That was and is a swimsuit

Is the LN translated? I liked what I've seen of the manga but I hope the anime gets more people onboard to translate it at a faster pace.

Hope It’s good

If the anime gets really popular, then expect DMCAs just like what happened with Shakugan no Shana.

Why did her dad order the hit? Just let her be in some manor in the countryside

I think he wants to make sue she can do something. It's tough love!

At least is not a dick.

So does anyone have more LN illustrations?

Wasnt the grampa from her mother side? the father just doesnt care for her

Grampa's feelings about Melida are complicated and messy.
As for daddy, I'll just tl something from volume 6 quick
"You want me to face "that"."

The battle hardened Duke moved to pre-empt anything that Kufa might say.

Stiffly positioned on his chair, Fergus squeezed his hands together on the table.

"Let me ask you a question – in fact, I heard that your relationship with Rosetti is going well?"

"Hm? That is a misunderstanding between us."

"Ah. Well, that doesn’t matter all..."

The Duke indifferently moves on. Kufa does not feel relieved in the slightest, but can only listen to the questions raised by the stone like Duke.

"Let us assume for a moment that you and Rosetti married for love and had a child. If you then discovered that the child did not have your blood, could you love that child the same as before?”

"……"

"I loved Melinoa... Because of that, I can't love that child."

When put like that, I can get where he comes from.

Do does the blue haired one get a crush on the sensei too?

Now, the other possible explanation behind Melida not having mana is that the Paladin factor is becoming or is recessive - she is a legitimate child and Fergus could not pass on the class.
Which sounds outlandish, but if it's true, then Flandor's noble system could very well be doomed through the march of time. Fewer and fewer mana users, more and more kids abandoned, even larger burdens placed on the soldiers.

Attached: is it in the blood.jpg (2108x1616, 1002K)

When viewed in that light, then people are unconsciously hopeful that Fergus really did get cucked, because the alternative is really, really, really bad. The nobles will do anything to try and cover it up. If the lycanthropes on the mainland hear about it, there is going to be huge problems, the same as if the news got out that the nectar they're burning in the lamps is running out.

Well it's official, the setting is screwed. Hope our main characters make it out alright.

There are three named characters in series that have obtained mana and a class when they had neither before.. Kufa is not on this list. And the how behind it is very different for them. Kufa is not responsible for all three of them. Melida is the only one of these who drank the potion.
There are theories about how this ties into how humans obtained mana in the first place, and what each of these characters had in common. Regardless though, it's pretty clear that there can be no military solution to Flandor's dilemma, and never will be.

the leotards are super cute

The cat eye tits are cuter.

>battle shoujo
What a time to be alive.

How did the author manage to make a shoujo non-reverse harem?

the author is not a thot

Blue looks like best girl. Also picked up.

Picked up.

me on the left

Man I fucking love predictable generic shit.

Hot

>he doesn’t like washboards

When is it airing?

Finally, was getting sick of this isekai shit.

Why do I have the urge to lick every inch of her flat body?

October

Did they really spell "assassin" wrong on their promo ad?

Me too

Vampires are always at least good.

Main girl is wonderful.

It's also not a harem. More like a double triangle with Merida in the center.

No she has a crush on main girl. Same with black hair girl.

Fuck yeah I missed battle harems

Picked up
Black best girl.

Sorry user but this is a battle harem for women

Its ok I watch shoujo also

Yes

That fuken cat eyes

Preview: youtube.com/watch?v=to4JXAQ3578

So who has the harem here?

Are the girls actually competent or does the guy have to bail them out every time?

Looks like that blonde girl from magical lyrical series but without mech-tech, and all of what these anons suspect:
It's probably going to be a more serious rated "something cure" series with weapons and typical all hair/eyes colored "not foreign, or not completely at least" sailor moon like show with a lot of typical mushy relationshit will they won't they drama that depending on its success and following size, will spawn lots of NTR doujins.

Heck, just looking at OP's image of it, I can tell that girlie is going to be like a fusion between illya and madoka kaname with some of that blond girl from the magical lyrical show (forgot their names).

This is the type of garbage I like.

That actually looks nice. Not great but there will be some effort into it instead of whatever happened to Uchimusume and Maou-sama Retry this season.
Cool logo too.

Surprisingly doesn't look terrible, I was always worried since it's done by the same studio that did Hyakuren Haou.
Also they still haven't showed the characters from volume 2 of LN so I wonder just how far will they adapt.

Why do people call it a shoujo?

NOICE

so the mc is the one who trains her, making her a deuteragonist? and he's a vampire? something not of nipponese origin yet his "class" is that of a samurai, which is something of nipponese origin, a vampire samurai lol. And blonde girl is supposed to be a paladin (holy knight, something not of nipponese origin) archetype but because she's a happa mutt, the nipp blood has tainted her away from that route (no fate series saber clone #1847255) and the samurai vamp sensei that was supposed to "make it work or make it drop" took pitty on her and decided to inyect "mana", (yea right "mana", just tell me if the source origin of this is an ero-novel/visual novel/ero-light novel or lite porn manga with tons of implied sex and it'll be obvious what this show is going to be about) to make it work through some plot-convenient "wait, can we do that!?" tier haxx that makes her a samurai archetype and that's not okay because she's a mongrel that was supposed to be more western flavored? Uff, it's nasu's bizzare world of self-insert power wank and twist rest of the world culture x nippon all over again, huh?

Because it's pretty much one except the narrator and MC is what would usually be the main love interest. Otherwise, the story is entirely focused on the main heroine.

>battle shoujo
>not even a reverse harem

She has her sensei and her girls, so I guess it's a harem?

>pic confirms it
And there it is! All jap shows have always the same jappanosuke mc, I mean I have seen that mc before in sword art online, mahouka irregular magic school, index series, persona 5, shield hero, zero no tsukima, franxx, fire emblem gacha, idolmaster, fate zero, fate gacha order, hyouka, nisekoi, school days, psycho pass, black bullet and etc they're all the same fucker, not to mention in hentai stuff, it's the definition of insanity how often the same character is re-used, it's almost like pkmn show with ash.
at least, they're not friggin niggers

The guy needs to be more abusive to be a proper shoujo love interest.

Is not that type of shoujo user

It's generic but I still found it fun

It's like a Final Fantasy logo.

Nah, she will be the one abusing him.
