Synopsis:
QUOTE
The “school sword action” story revolves around Magic Knights, modern magic-users who fight with weapons converted from their souls. Ikki Kurogane goes to a school for these Magic Knights, but he is the “Failed Knight” or “Worst One” who is failing because he has no magical skills. However, one day, he is challenged to a duel by Stella, a foreign princess and the “Number One” student. In this duel, “the loser must be obedient for life.”

Exactly my thought too..

"The main male protagonist is set as a lowest, useless and hopeless, while main female protagonist / or pretty much everyone else is your genius and top in whatever. The two met, and battles again each other, only to show that male protagonist is not as hopeless as he was perceived to be"

Lets see similar title like this
- Absolute duo
- Mahouka
- Danmachi (ok maybe not to that shitty extend)
- Naruto
- Somehow Heavy Object too..
- Infinite Stratos
- Aria the scarlet ammo
- Zero no tsukaima..
Yadayadayadayada...

try the reverse, which is a lot more interesting

The male protagonist had a reputation, as one of the strongest, the best in his <insert> school, but in actually he is the weakest and can use any kind of <insert> abilities, and his reputation came to be because misunderstanding. And he had to keep up of his reputation, because of reason(being expelled etc), solely by using his brain and brawn

and the only one that did this

Mx0



I guess it normal that people like first one more because it's easier to self insert, <I was just pretending to be weak lol>

Not quite i'd say.. "Perceived as strongest by many only because of being an oddity/misunderstanding/trick/accident/luck, when in real is actually the complete opposite" setting is quite normal i'd say in nowadays series. Take Toradora (Ryuji), Trinity Seven, Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou, Hataraku Maou sama (when they're on Japan), Freezing, Absolute Duo, Tears to Tiara and many more... in fact you can put Infinite Stratos into something along that setting too, because of how the main lead guy breaks the perception that IS can only be piloted by females, which makes him an oddity, and somewhat became a huge focus in the school, when in real he is a sucky IS pilot lol.

When it comes to boy + girl kind of setting, i think Japan pretty much has used everything. laugh.gif

Wasn't expecting the ending to be that good! And I never put my expectation too high for this anime but now I'm glad that I followed it. Hahaha!

Waiting for the next season!

i have similar opinions.

its a bit sad though, because asterisk definitely have more production quality/budget put into it.
just the op/ed and animation/art etc beats rakudai lol.

it just... falls short. for reasons i could barely put into words laugh.gif

Just finished the anime and hooked to read whole 9 volume of the light novel (fan translate) within 2 days. This novel and anime is unexpectedly gooding for harem and weak-to-strong genre.

Well, the guy n the girl for graduate from virgin in 9th volume. They totally deserve it.
