A warning to everyone. Don't go into this anime expecting flowery romance. It is anything BUT flowery.

And so the Fall '13 season officially begins. I hope this show is better than the last reverse harem-ish title I watched: Hiiro no Kakera. I also hope the male harem assures the female lead that they might kill her at any time even while it's obvious that they adore her (a la Hakuoki).

Fair warning: this show is for masochists. And I mean that literally. If you cannot stand to watch females be mentally and physically abused, you might not wanna watch this.

Sounds like fun for the whole family. Yeah, it may not be for me, then. I'm not always down with the Japanese celebration of prolonged cruelty.

Required reading, for those thinking about watching this (or just looking for a laugh):

spoilers I guess but I doubt this will be the gripping thriller of the season

My friend described this show as the unintentional comedy of the season. Let's see how it goes up against Valvrave

I had no idea that this started airing today. I've read some game reviews and I'm really curious to find out how this is going to translate into anime, because some of the stuff that happens in this game isn't very nice Shocked (and that's putting it very mildly)

I already watched it during the livestream, but if stuff like this can get an adaptation, that means I can still hope for an adaptation of Hatoful Boyfriend.

Is it abuse when that's how they want to be treated? Laughing

Just caught the first eppie on CR. First, they are only about 15-minute episodes. Second, apparently Japanese male vampires are giant a-holes.

Things are not looking good for Bitch-chan.

Sadists can enjoy it too!

Honestly my biggest question is why the target shoujo genre, girls 10-18 years old would like a heroine that is called spoiler[little bitch and pancake (chest)!]

12 episodes 15-minutes in length is going to be awfully short.

So it's a Showgate title, and since all the rest of their titles on CR have been licensed by Sentai, I'm gonna assume this one as well until otherwise...

Tally ho...
