...holy shit.

I'm in love with this series.

Video games...

Cute girls...

And a nice balance between comedy, romance and actual plot! (And all that juicy fanservice... Aw yeah, oppai!)

This is like Highschool DxD and Sword Art Online coming as one and becoming this crazy loving thing!!

And yes... I watch Highschool DxD. (OPPAI! Ya know, saying that I watch it feels a hell of a lot better, even though people will probably hate me for being a perv, but its like a weight has been lifted off me... But at this rate, people probably wont give a shit) Hell I'm rewatching the series because "apparently" the fourth season is coming this summer! So be ready for those reviews XD

AND THIS IS YOUR SPOILER WARNING!! If you don't like spoilers, get the fuck outta this book rn, and watch the episode goddammit! And then call out any mistakes I made XD

Ok, so lets start off. Our main character is Hideki Nishimura, the Issei/Kirito of this series. Why do I call him the Issei/Kirito of this series? Because...

1) He has brown hair like Issei (Issei traits)

2) Is basically in a harem (Issei/Kirito traits)

3) One lucky bastard (Kirito traits)

4) Sword user (Kirito traits)

5) Main character (Issei/Kirito traits)

6) Your typical shounen main (like every other shounen main XD)

And you can see why... I mean, just look at them!!

Hideki

Kirito

Issei (best main character I've seen in a long time imo)

But I digress. Oh yeah, he plays this game called "Legendary Age" and is in a guild called "Cat Alley". Wow, who made this guild up?

O_O
Ya know what, I'll forgive her. (She might just be my next waifu >_< Cute purple haired girl who plays video games? Count me in!!)

Anyways, his username in the game is "Rusian" in the dub. In the sub however... Its "Lucian"...

THAT IS 100X BETTER THEN RUSIAN!! RUSIAN SOUNDS LIKE RUSSIA (then again, hes? She? Never watched the series, but from what I heard, their one scary character) scary in Hetalia...) AND LUCIAN SOUNDS LIKE LUCIFER, A DEMON!! LIKE?!?! Gah, it gets me worked up XD

So in ep 1, we learn about Hideki (Rusian) and his mistrust of girls online because of this one time, he liked a girl in this game, proposed to her, but in reality... Shes a dude. Hideki is freaked out and leaves the guild with her, and goes solo for a year. During that time, he never EVER trusts a girl again. Until 2 years later, this girl named Ako proposes to him like a bunch of times,

(This is Ako btw. I'll call her the Asia of the group as shes nervous and shy like her and has thing for the main XD)
And Hideki finally gives in and they become married in the game. (This feels like de ja vu...)

And so, in the game he beats up some mobs, his guildmates powers are seen, etc, etc, and then we jump to school. (I think. I don't remember the exact order, but it went something like this) At school, Hideki is with his friends, talking about anime and being a total otaku and the tsundere of this series (cause all good anime series need a tsundere... Hey, I should note that!!) (who looks like this)

Who is Akane, who DESPSIES Otakus, and since Hideki's one, she despises him! And shes cute XD...
Anyways, being the tsundere of this series, I think she has a thing for Hideki, so I'll call her the Asuna/Koneko of the group as their the main tsundere in their respective series. She bashes down Hideki and co, and soon they go to an assembly where the vice president, Kyo (might be Kyoh, and is also the purpled haired girl)(A.K.A my third waifu~ <3)(AND DON'T YOU DARE TAKE HER) is giving a lecture?

Later on a fateful day with his guildmates, the other guild members meet up in this bar and have a talk. (They look like this)

So, the blonde one is Schwein (german for pig) and the burgundy one is Apricot (delicious name, may I add)

Hold up, just wanna add another point
Blondie reminds me of Kiba, so Imma call him Kiba. Burgundy... Eeeh... Strange top though

And then they talk about some irl stuff and Hideki was talking about something and Ako said about his distrust of girls online because of his experience with them, which leads to Ako saying that she is one. Most of the members ask her if shes ok with saying that online (cause internet safety) and Apricot (the guild master) says hes actually a highschool girl irl. Hideki keeps dening it, and he makes an announcement of an irl meet up! And oh boy is Hideki gonna get the surprise of his life...

So outside a big tree, Hideki is waiting for his guildmates. Ako is the first to arrive, and holy crap she looks exactly like Ako in the game XD
Then Akane comes, seeing Hideki, they start fighting with each other, after finding out that Hideki is Rusian and Akane is Schwein. Then Kyo comes along and its revealed shes Apricot! The guild is now together irl, still in shock and surprise. And I have to say... Hideki is one lucky bastard. Its not everyday that you find a cute girl who is into gaming, and finding three of them and then slamming yourself in a harem like Issei?! BRO LET ME HAVE YOUR LIFE!!! T-T
Anyways, after they meet up, they all go to a cafe of sorts and get to know each other better. This is where I go ahead and call Kyo Rias, as they are pretty much the leader of their group... The one thing is that she doesn't like Hideki... Just yet. Because just like Kirito, all girls will fall to him!! And Issei! And all other good harem show main characters!! BECAUSE PLOT ARMOUR!!! LONG LIVE THIS BEAUTIFULLY TRAGIC THING!!!!!

Anyways, after they introduce themselves, they all realise that their in the same school, but different classes (except Hideki and Akane, because those guys will hit off, and I know what'll happen to a tsundere when I see one...) Kyo being a year older then them and Ako being in a different class then Hideki and Akane. (Unlucky girl, Hideki and Akane will probably happen before anything else... XD)

And with that, the episode ends? I guess so. I don't remember the actual ending, but its something like that. So what is my views on it?

So when this started, it had a strong feel, Ako proposing to Hideki, that really caught my attention, so to start off strong is good. The episode was really funny, and had a nice feel of romance (Ako and Hideki being the main one) and overall I liked it. Took two of my fave anime series and merged them, to create something amazing. So, what do we have so far?

Hideki- Issei/Kirito- I love yet hate him. Love him because he's got Issei traits and ya know what? Thats really good. I hate him because... He doesn't stick out for me. Ya know? Issei had the pervert who was epic thing, and Kirito was some God level OP character then you hated yet adored. Hideki was... Hideki. Video game playing otaku... Doesn't stick out strongly imo. 7/10

Ako- Asia- Nervous and shy lover for Hideki. She made her mark on me already, but the nervous and shy character cliche is here XD 8.7/10

Akane- Kiba/Koneko/Asia- Three roles already... Wow, XD
Cute tsundere. Already made her mark aswell on me XD
Needs some fleshing out. 7/10

Kyo- Rias- My waifu. 11/10 (what more is there to say?)

So, overall, for a first ep, striked me hard and I loved it! If you haven't watched this already, and love Highschool DxD or Sword Art Online, or just both, give this a try. It'll be worth it. 9/10 this ep!

So yeah, there you go, ep 1! I shall do ep 2 in the future, but next is Highschool DxD New episode 2 and after is Fairy Tail episode 56!! You guys get ready for boobs and LOTS of magic!! Thats all from me, and Fox out!
