Occult Academy was not exactly a well-received show in itself. |

You clearly missed the preview guides here. |

Imagine if they ever make a Twilight anime! (IIRC, there's already a manga.) |

Rank=Hagure-1st, Campione-2nd, Dakara-100th. All still suck but are ok for ecchi material. I'm ok with Akatsuki, at least he isn't another generic I want to but afraid to look at nude girls male MC. Hate that they keep trying to keep the loli's clothes on, Akatsuki will probably screw up his alpha status by only wanting to be with Miu. We need another Seikon/Manyuu minus wimpy males.

Seikon didn't have any wimpy males. In fact, Sasha was probably just as BOSS as Akatsuki, only a little younger. Manyuu had males? |

That's okay, Drale, but thank you. The censorship is pretty bad - and I've never quite understood why nipples are so taboo - I guess the only good thing I can say about it is that it at least isn't just blinding white bars of light. To be perfectly honest, it isn't just the fanservice of this show that brought it down. I don't mind fanservice unless it interferes with the plot, really, and I wanted to like this show for its more intelligent lead and interesting premise. But it just tread such abusive, predatory territory that I felt it detracted from the potential story, which wasn't developing fast enough. Win some, lose some, right? |

Yeah, the perverted lord and some unimportant side roles. |

I can see why people don't like the show, but it's not real so I am not taking issues with this for the same reason I didn't take issue with Heaven's Lost Property, which was fairly similar in regards to some of the scenes many here had a problem with.
This certainly hinders one's ability to take the show at all seriously, but I don't think this show is intended for that. I think the character designs aren't unattractive personally, although they aren't the best either. I agree with the article writer that the premise seemed promising, it is even annoying to me that they aren't doing more with it. I wish more shows managed to combine this level of fanservice with better plot and/or better characters. Sadly, this is true much less often than I would prefer, but that's probably because it's not required for it to sell. |

I agree. The problem with this show isn't that it contains fanservice, it's that the fanservice consists of humiliating and abusing the female characters. Compare that to something like Asobi ni Ikuyo (which I enjoyed), and you'll see what I'm talking about. Nobody is being hurt by that fanservice. |

I really enjoy this series. For ONCE, Akatsuki(the main guy) is not just some loser pervert who can't even look at a girl. He's not even a pervert(at least not any more than guys his age =0p), since he doesn't go out of his way to "sneak a peek". And he's a badass that can protect his women, should they need it. Much better than Dakara H, where, ONCE AGAIN, the guy, for NO reason falls for another tsundere girl he just met and is willing to risk his life for, DESPITE every other girl being just as or more attractive and nicer than the tsundere girl, not to mention the main guy having shounen plot power in every episode during the battle when said tsundere girl is about to get beaten. It's unenjoyably cliche(imo), yet it got a favorable B rating here. Go figure =0\.

LOVE this show! Way to many anime have pansy/cry baby lead male characters. Real guys want bad ass/cocky lead male characters, like what it is with this show. Watching ichigo and naruto cry every episode makes those shows pathetic. Luffy is just slap happy stupid, so one piece can go either way. Toriko is a good lead male character, and Allen Walker should die lol.

Haha. I see what you did there. Bravo. Seriously, Zac and all the other male ANN staffers have reviewed tons of "male-oriented" anime in the past and, if they're garbage, the guys review 'em as such. I can't imagine they'd be unprofessionally biased about something; they've all been doing this for so long. And besides, who says women can't enjoy quality harem/fanservice/male-oriented anime? I remember being less than thrilled by this one's promos, so I'm not surprised it was lackluster so far. |
