Campione!

A harem love comedy plus magic battles. Kusanagi Godo is a 16-year-old high school boy, who once killed the god "Verethragna" and acquired the title of "Campione (god killer)" when he was 15. Erica Brandelli is a 16-year-old Italian girl, who is a "Great Knight" of the magic society "Bronze Black Cross" and had fought together with Godo to defeat Verethragna. Godo doesn't like fighting but his title of "Campione" makes him get involved in battles against other Campiones and uncontrollable gods.


 The animations look kinda budget tbh. But I'm following this for one reason, it has REALLY strong Daimaou vibes going on at the end of episode 1. Almost as though it's a spiritual successor of that show. I don't expect this to be the next Fate/Zero or FMA(the good one), but I expect to enjoy it for the season.

...okay, I lied, I'm following this for two reasons. Every season I need to watch atleast one generic harem comedy. The way the image for this anime posted above is set up with the male protagonist pictured behind the female lead who is in focus? That tells you it'll be a typical 12-episode harem series. This one sounds like a good choice. Arcana Famgilia doesn't count, that's reverse harem. The opposite of a harem.


One thing that impresses/ticks me off about this show is how the clearly japanese voice actor have better english than I do, and probably more italianese than I ever will know.

Pardon me, as this is slightly off-topic, but... there was a bad FMA?
I implore you to forgive my speaking of English, as I'm not so premium with it.

 The second half of the 1st FMA imo wasn't that great.

The stuff faithful to the manga before it? Awesome, better than how Brotherhood handled it in fact(since Brotherhood streamlined it), but the stuff afterwards? Hurts it quite a bit.

Well, the reason Brotherhood streamlined it for is because they expected people to use the first FMA anime as reference. OK then, enough off-topic from me. :D

erm...I don't know if anyone else is following this, but how come the second episode hasn't aired yet?


 The first episode was June 28th, that's like 2 weeks ago. Was last week some special japanese holiday?

Second episode is scheduled to air tomorrow. The same calendar also has the first episode listed for the 6th, so maybe the one from the 28th of July was a pre-air version.

huh you're right, I never knew there was such a thing as "pre-air" version.


 Either way, turns out I'm enjoying this series quite a bit more than I expected. It seems quite well animated, especially the bits with the gold swords.
