I was actually hoping this would be like "We Happy Few" if it was super good, with everybody being stepford smilers and a sinister gallows interior of the so-called "Smiling kingdom". Instead, it's all kinds of happy business.

What kind of deep and horrible show where youblooking for?...


Cause I want in. T
Sadly the tags didn't include Yuri, Loli, and/or shoujo-ai so it's a bust for me.
 
Episode 1:

What a pointless first episode. I guess I didn't hate it, but it's just too dull and uninteresting, they barely show anything plot relevant and instead spend 25 minutes doing... what exactly? It doesn't make me want to keep watching anyway.
 
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LET'S GET THIS EDGELORD SHIT ON THE ROAD SON

Episode 1

What the fuck is going on? They planting shit and dis garden and-
Wait... this isn't-
AW FUCKNUTS THE FUCK IS THIS

WAIT
wait
This is... something about smiling? Everybody smiling?
Is that sky shield to protect their smiles?

How did- this shit is so impractical that it must be some fantasy shit.

Is she ascending to be a Star Princess?

The fuck is- they are just eating time with the different angle replay cuts.

The fuck is this imperial- ETERNAL SUN EMPIRE
It sounded imperial but then went to somethign not imperial.

Man, if she is the queen then this is some bu- wait, hold up. Ah, she's Princess and 12 year olds get some massive ass power and she is just accepting shit without reading it like a true bureaucrat.

Chrars the fuck is- nevermind.
The fuck is this socialist shit?

Oh yeah baby, talk economics and administration, oh yeah that really cranks my engine! MY AXEL ROD IS OILED FOR THIS BUSINESS SHIT

Ok, that statue is pretty dope. I would totally have a massive, grandoise statue erected in my honour. And it would be a symbolism or one of them things people pray to for certain things.

Man those kids are slow as shit. Kids should be full of energy.

AWWWWW YEAAAAAAAAH FIGHT ENEMIES AND SHIT SOME GIANT ROBO ON ROBO ACTION

That is a legit move you CLODS shield bump to rapid gunfire in the chest.

BACK IN THE MECHA YOU FUCKING DUMBFU-

My god, that guy is a disgrace.

Oh yeah baby, espionage.
And political talk, this is my shit!

Yeah, gotta placate the proletariat. Gifts and shit to keep the rebellion down

SUN SOLAR EMPIRE- Oh, not them.
Gotta get something for your help.

If it's for your peasants, you can't give them too much.

Nah, fuck that. Keep the monarchy and the power within the few BUT you can't let the military grow to fast, too strong or in any sort of way that they can overthrow you for whatever reason they decide.

Make everybody smile? Considering she's 12 it's no surprise she doesn't want to rule with an iron fist.

Josh is jellin'.

That was some lame ass robo fighting, it was like some game or some shit they were playing because it was a game and some shit.

Ah, unobtanium.

This next part is Joshua being a jealous bitch. Gotta have someone to question the princess.
Nicely quic- the fuck? This is some crazy ass Space Chess yo.

Oh my gawd. How is fightin for her a surprise.

So... European and Russian bots, nice. The Soviet ones be hacking.
Pfft, that's some scrub ass tactics yo. Josh is getting the shit kicked out of him.

That's a tiny ass knife, they ain't no Rob Roy.

This is alright. Not aight, but alright. Some of the backgrounds are really plain and give away their lackluster rendering technology.

I'm fine with this, giant swords and shit. And good tactics on his part, he's not being a total bitch.

That dude is just chuckling it up.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS IS SOME CHEAP ASS HAX SHIT SON SHE IS FUCKING ALL-SEEING EYE UP IN THIS BITCH THIS IS SOME RIGGED ASS SHIT SON
YO FUCK THIS.

This is some ol' bullshit.

Fuck this shit.

And there's this triumphant music and shit.

She could have gotten out if she didn't stop.

She got drenched in shit water.

This is some fucking bullshit.

As long as you touch it, you win. Even if you fall off the building or let go of the flag, none of that "Bringing flag back to homebase" or some shit.

Eh, I'm fine with this. I mean, it's not Lottery and there's some administration/political talk with a nice bit of espionage and foreign relations and I do hope they continue with that angle instead of slapping on some heart warming smiling robo socialist shit. But judging by the EP, there's going to be some relations between the Sun Kingdom and Imperialist Empire. Also that they'll get into some military conquests or combat that will lead to some hot diplomatic talks and trade deals. And her actions having consequences by way of her freewheeling governance in bureaucracy by just accepting everything without reading it. I know she can't read everything but she should read some of it, or the important stuff. And her wanting the world to smile? That kind of shit will not come by perfect ruling; you need to create a society ruled by a solidarity figure in authoritative power as there will always be nations that will not abide by your smile code or be allies with you.

Hopefully the buildup pays off and it maintains some quality control.
 
first episode was boring. i wanted to sleep in middle of fight.....no interactions....no real story
 
Actually enjoyed the part where they were standing around talking about food distribution more than the fight scenes.
 
Ep 1
This anime is okay. It's nothing that I'm super into, but at the same time nothing that I have problems with.
The mecha fight wasn't really intriguing, tho- I would even call it pointless.
I'm here to see how it goes-
 
There is something really wrong about this season, the secondary characters really don't have a "lasting presence".

Episode 2:

For majority of the episode I kept thinking that I wouldn't watch any more after that, but the ending redeemed the episode somewhat, or at least enough to give it the third episode too. It's still largely pointless and a well written series wouldn't waste time like that, and it's also still too fluffy for its own good (I can't believe *I* am the one saying this but this series could borrow some of that grimdarkness from other shows).
 
Episode 2.
Wow. I didn't think they had the nuts to actually off the supposed MC 2 episodes in. Ballsy move. Here's hoping it leads to something interesting.

I liked the fight, too. The superior made but less numerous models eventually getting overwhelmed by the mass produced, but bigger in numbers models. It's like the opposite of what Gundam usually does.
 
Episode 2
Damn, wasn't expecting Joshua to go out so soon--was just starting to like him too. And then they reveal that the city he died to protect ended up getting overrun by the enemy anyways. It really shows how pointless his death was, I like it.

I hope we see some development for the princess and the other main girl who we haven't seen yet. It'd also be really cool if we got to see more of that twin girl who said she owed Joshua for setting off the bombs, I think they could do something interesting with her now.

The fight was okay. In general I'm not a huge mecha fan but I appreciated that they gave us a reasonable explanation for why these mechas aren't able to fly.
 
Episode 1:

I liked this! Cute characters, good art style, mecha, and a good ending song? Perfect! that little stuffed animal he gave her at the end was adorable. I like the main character too she's very cute and I like her attitude as the new ruler.

On to episode 2!
 
Episode 2:

This is getting more and more interesting as it goes. So they are at war and are keeping it from the princess? The title is starting to make sense. Though I keep having to correct myself because I keep reading it as "The Prince of Smiles" lol

I liked the mech battles, gimme more of that.

HOLY SHIT JOSHUA DIED WTF WHO SAID THAT WAS OK?!?!?

He was all like "YEAH I MADE IT DAD I"LL SURPASS YOU!" and then fucking DEAD WHY.

Damn it I'm invested now.

Assholes

Killing Joshua

and he was holding that stupid cute little lion thing

T_T

fuck you

Fuck you indeed.
Lol
Read your comment going "HELL YEA!" & "EXACTLY!"
I also read "prince" then correct to price
 
So that whole war is a sad thing is going to keep happening? Thanks for giving me such supposedly depressing situations.

I don't think this show can keep me if it keeps up the "drama" and attempting to make us confused. Both sides are bad for something.
