Dies irae

Episode 1:

Well, this found a way to suck in completely different ways than the OVA sucked last week, so kudos to it for that dubious distinction I guess. Although, the way it sucked this week is a lot more boring than the way the prologue sucked last week, so fuck it for that.

So yeah, this episode makes it clear you're watching an erogue adaptation. We get out bland male lead and he goes around meeting all his fuck options this week. You've got the annoying childhood friend, the weird emotionless girl and the nun with huge milk jugs for all the MILF lovers out there.

Meanwhile, the Nazi's are gather together a band of freaks to do a thing. Not sure what that thing is, but they're certainly doing it. It'll be up to Fear of Blades-kun to bumble his way into stopping them, while trying to let the audience think it's possible for him to get balls deep in any of his romantic options. It's quite the obstacle for our main guy.

There's some weird dream sequences that were really silly looking, there was some poor animation and a super shitty opening and ending.

I wasn't lost this week. Just bored.
 
01
there is nothing really to be said about this episode (damn ZK keeps beating me to it), it was seriously boring, an obligatory personality-less lead character (it's not like they can't put some effort in properly translating the self-insert husk into a proper character), and an obnoxious childhood friend (we cab never have enough loud characters in one season). just what one would expect from a porn ga- i mean a visual novel.

other than that it wasn't nearly as terrible as the prologue episode, even the animation is good compared to last week's scrambles. it's still really boring, i was fine up to minute 8, since it wasn't going anywhere at all, i guess a change from Irritating to boring is a positive?. and the Kasumi bitch didn't help at all, i just wanted to punch her in the face every time she gets the screen. for me, the show looks very similar to F/S N, which isn't really a good title..
i think i read somewhere that the budget for this show is twice as much as a normal show, but that brings the question, why isn't the quality that impressive?

the next episode seems like it's gonna be some ridiculous gore porn, more edgelord material for me i guess?

Butt did you see dat ass when she was trying to crawl, through the hole in the wall. She's the booty while the nun is the jugs. Got to have one to balance the other.

Not sure why they thought they could get away from knocking holes in their apartment walls. I get its meant to show how close they are, but this shit was stupid as fuck.
 
Starts episode. Cliche Japanese school kids fighting on a rooftop at sunset. No nazis having boring conversations. "Did I click on the wrong video?" Pause. Minimize. Checks title. Nope.

God I hate this fucking anime.

Well, better go torture myself some more.

Edit: Clunky exposition through yelling. Why did I unpause this?

Edit 2: I made it through! Super relieved. Nothing new or interesting to say. This was as cliche and bland as a story about reincarnated(?) nazis in Japan can be.

I've seen better walking animation in Robot Chicken.

Stylish psuedo Nazi's during the OP, not a hint of them unless rank counts with the boring priest insert. You can tell their super duper evil because of the terrible skull gif of their aura or whatever. Also, MC, meh. Bland, of course afraid of blades because why not? Fan service nun and booty call loud girl as best friend something something.

i guess this is what i get for trying to be optimistic for once

Episode 0 I can understand people being confused with since it doesn't explain things or much in the way of introductions (people who haven't read the visual novel this was adapted from probably were confused) but as far as episode 1 is concerned people are giving it a shit time for starting like any other anime on the genre hue. It got the introductions out of the way and while the vn does a much better way of showing and explaining things it wasn't particularly bad.
It's amazing to me that people give other shows that do a worse job a pass and yet come down hard on other ones that while didn't exactly stand out also don't do anything bad either.

As a fan of the visual novel I for one am enjoying the anime as a way to see characters I like animated and the whole thing come to life, I can only hope that it will raise up to the challenge of adapting a great vn into anime but I won't hold my breath for a masterpiece either since most studios have done a pretty poor job of adapting visual novels into anime form.

episode starting with Kasumi yelling, i'm already in a bad mood. god damn how boring this was, and i was expecting a slaughter fest this episode, the animation is even worse than episode 0's.

the episode also made no sense, he was in bed, suddenly appeared in the park in front of a dead lady, he reached the conclusion that he was the one who did it, and for no reason became able to fight right before they were about to kill him.
i can see the effort put into the script, and it sucks.

that masochistic priest was probably the best part about this episode.

Episode 3

Spoiler alert! It's not getting any better.

I hope they form an afterschool Nazi club, where everybody learns the meaning of friendship, and they change in ways they weren't expecting while collecting fond memories. Years later they'll look back on the time they shared and smile as they massacre innocent children, or whatever it is that immortal demon nazis do.

Episode 3
Bah
So..this happened. Fight at night between two pseudo Nazi demons, and the boring MC who's afraid of swords and all that. He's rescued by an equally bland blonde girl in a weird seventies era disco-tech outfit. Annnnd..it's all a dream until he gets to school and the creepy, annoying laugh, nazi girl is now a classmate.
 
Episode 1

What's with the fucking generic as balls narrations?

Basically, real bros fight for some reason or another. And the narration is just filler shit before he goes to another world or some shit goes down. And I think I read between 1-6 chapters of this as a manga, so I have a good understanding of what this isn't.

Aw shit son, chanting fucking radical as shit guitars, borderline keytaur opener, and some edgy drums with the skulls. But the clincher: Strippers. Nazi strippers.

This looks so fucking retarded. I love it.

That Santa doesn't look very Nazi like.

She's like two blocks away and yelling loud as fuck, not shutting up and the guy should have just dead sprinted out of there.

It feels like my headphones are slowly tearing themselves apart. My eyes keep on darting side-to-side as if my mind is trying to break free from its mortal coils.

If this was like this Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus commercial I'm watching right now, this would be the fucking. Shiznit.

Wait, this guy killed his parents? What a shitty kid.

I now have a boner. This is some French Revolution shit right here.

I also love the music, it's so... grandoise, so overdrawn. And did she just lag out and jump ahead? And your eyes shouldn't dart around like that.

Kasumi: Oh sorry, I shouldn't have taken you to a blade exhibit when you have a fear of blades. And guillotines. Woopsi-dingles!

Wait, what the fuck. This is some Maison Ikkoku shit right here. This is pulling all these kickass references. And some drama shit about that one guy from-

Ok, now it's hentai shit. Not that I would know, nor is it a genre. More of a tag sort of thing. "Girl stuck in wall/hole"

OH SHIT WAS HIS FRIEND A NAZI. THAT IS A GREAT TWIST MAN. I can write this shit so well.

If someone sings a song of the guillotine and of quenching it's thirst for blood, I would back away into the featureless desert. Should she turn, turn around and run. Fast.

I FUCKING KNEW IT. FRENCH REVOLUTION.

Alright, who got stabbed. In the neck. Until their head fell off.

FUCK YES. STOP BEING A GAYLORD AND WARM HER UP.
FUCK YES.
ACCEP- what the fuck is that. None of the words she used to describe it made sense.

Wake up and smell the facism. Your friend is with the OG Nazis.

Holy shit, Sister Riza is a fox. DEUS VULT.

Oh shit this is amazing. Fucking guitar riffs for a murder scene. I am so voting this for best musical score of the year.

lol clas is 4 chumpz

That deadpan delivery is perfect. His dumbass Red-Headed friend just accepted it.

Clearly a Nazi, because I thought this shit had Nazis in it. Instead it's a bunch of non-Nazi Japanese students. It's really taking a long time to get to the Fascist stuff.
Wait- narration means Nazi shit is going down soon. Magical Nazi shit.

HOLY SHIT MAN. THIS IS EDGY AS FUCK. FUCKING ROCK OUT TO THIS MUSIC MAN. HEAVY GUITAR, FUCKING GNARLY RIFFS, SKULLS AND SHIT, RED BLOOD THINGS IN FLASHES. THIS IS AMAZING SON. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

TUBAL CAIN.

WAIT. ARE THEY NAZIS OR CHRISTIAN NAZIS. WAIT. I DON'T GET THIS. IF THEY ARE NEW-AGE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR THEN IT WILL BE BONERS.

HEY GUYS. KILL EVERYTHING, FROM BABIES TO CAMELS. GOD WILL IT. DEUS VULT.

Black Round Table. What the fuck.

All three of my nominations for Best Musical Score will be:
1. Dies Irae
2. Fucking Dies Irae
3. Edgelord Dies Irae

If I had to pick a girl, it would be the Guillotine. And the music, such a guilty pleasure.
 
Episode 2

I am so PUMPED for this! Edgy music, Nazis, Magical Nazi Templar Knights who channel the power of the French Revolution to do some crazy shit and hopefully resurrect Super Hitler voiced by Norio Wakamoto.

I can't tell if I'm watching the first episode again despite it saying "Episode 2". This guy needs to stop reminiscing about girls. Of his dreams. And this shit is straight out of a harem. Or rom-com with ecchi hijinks but with more ear bleeding.

Thank god the OP drops a bomb on us with some dank chants over-the-top instrumentals. So grandoise! Kadenz really outdid themselves with this. And I WILL Take enjoyment wherever I can find it, as bad as it may be!

Girl: PERVERT. HENTAI. ECCHI. TAKING PICS OF GIRL'S PANTIES LIKE A PERVERT.

Out loud in the streets.

Isn't he... a Nazi Priest? DEUS VULT. But fabulous hair.

It actually is kinda creepy. And Stoic Girl's reaction is proper.

MILF Nun is ageless.

It's been a day since I watched the first episode and I can't even remember if that pervert priest is the Nazi Priest we saw at the end of the first episode. This is on par for the course though.

HOLY SHIT SON WITH THOSE VELVET EYES HE SHOULD SAY YES. DEUS VULT YOUNG MAN.

Nothing to comment, but organ music.
Priest of the Grail. Who does he think he is, Sir Perceval?

Ain't gonna lie, this death scene is kinda dumb. A guy slashes from 20 ft away and decapitates her? That's an aerial guillotine? Ain't as cool as the flying guillotine.

FUCK YEAH NAZI THEME MUSIC

Latin Metal is my favorite metal.

They keep on using all these German words like it's Bleach.

"Bitch can't you see, fall back away from me~"

If I were a villain and didn't need him alive, I would kill him immediately.
I'm sure a piece of his face fell off. That large drop of body matter couldn't have been blood from a head wound.

Dude got his arm rekt by face-punching a Nazi. What a puss.

For fucks sake man, STOP HITTING HIM IN THE FACE.

Remember As Above, So Below? Didn't it have a room of skulls like the French had in an underground cavern? This reminds me of that. Probably also has something to do with the Black Plague.

Deus Ex Machina.

This guy is very Nazi, I'll give him that.

Wait, what? In what way was that titillating or boner-inducing?

Just play truant guy. Some peace and quiet.
His eyes remind me of someone.

For fucks sake... the school accepts Secretly-Nazi students now? Is this going to turn into some comedic harem ecchi action metal-themed shiznit? That arrogant shitbag had better not be his teacher.

But this is one EP I will sit through. I will mention it every time I talk about an episode.

Deus vult, it works for all occasions!

We should've seen the signs, the fall was too good to be true. The better the good shows, the worse the bad ones will be. Although Ousama game and Evil or live or doing most of the ballancing out.

Honestly, I can't decide which is the worst out of those two and this. Evil or Live has a slight advantage over the others, since I haven't seen enough of it to pass judgement. What with all those missing frames.

Episode 3

I have no clue what the heck just happened.

Thats just this whole thing in a nutshell.

Took me a while to comment for this reason. I thought I wasn't paying enough attention but

um

wait no

yeah this anime makes no ducking sense.

So screw it, neither will this post.

As far as I can tell theres this dude who is in a school... he got involved, with maybe nazis and they have a plan to hurt people and there's magic going around.

There's also this whole thing going on where people keep getting text messages about how they're going to die if they dont do something ridiculous,

and it all takes place in a prison-like environment where computers arent allowed.

Did I get that about right? The F Tier of the fall season in a nutshell? I think im basically caught up now.
