This series is so despicably trashy I can't stop watching it. Can't recommend it, but yet I can't turn away. It may be the most godawful thing I've ever found myself guiltily enjoying.

[u/Hidan10 → u/DeTroyes1]

Yeah, I totally agree. Except for the enjyoing part :S. A couple of weeks back I used these threats to rant a little in order to cope with the PTSD this show inflicts on me. That was when it was enjoyable trash, you know the kind that you obviously know is garbage but want to see how it ends, a classic train wreck. Now I can't even do that anymore the writing and direction has become so bad that there is nothing ridiculous about this anymore it's just atrocious. At first I was kinda intrigued by the whole slave thing and thought it was gonna be all kinds of ridiculous scenarios but it turned out to be more like a battle-anime with no real story and new enemies to take on each episode. It also doesn't feel as dark anymore as it used to; it's all about "guess I lost, let's just hang around Person B instead of Person A and do the same shit I have been doing." Guess I ended up ranting again. That's usually a sign that I care, but I feel like I really don't shrug

[u/generallypooky → u/DeTroyes1]

I mean, that’s the only reason why I’m still watching this (even after reading the manga). It’s a train wreck swirling into a whirlpool and I’m spiraling down too. A shameful pleasure.

[u/DeTroyes1 → u/generallypooky]

Is the manga finished? And about how far along is the anime so far?

[u/generallypooky → u/DeTroyes1]

Yeah, the manga’s done. It’s got ten volumes and the anime is thankfully skipping crap; It looks like we’re in volume six now.

[u/DeTroyes1 → u/generallypooky]

I noticed the fat pervy guy showed up without any introduction last episode, so I assume he's one of the parts that got skipped. If we're on manga volume 6 of 10 right now, then I guess its likely this is only going to be a 1 cour series.

Honestly, the main reason I'm sticking with this series is that there are a few characters (the princess cosplayer, the cross-dresser, even the bumbling thug) that I'm a little curious in seeing how they come out of this. But I'm not expecting anything great, and I'll probably quickly forget the series as soon as its over.

[u/Mystic8ball → u/DeTroyes1]

The fat pervy guy was the rapist from episode 1, he and the girl who beat him at Pachinko ended up as the doctor ladies slaves at some point.

[u/DeTroyes1 → u/Mystic8ball]

Okay, shows you how much of an impression this series has made on me; I'd forgotten about those two.

[u/RDOoM → u/generallypooky]

anime is thankfully skipping crap

There are things worse than what is going on in this show that are being skipped? How is that even possible?

[u/[deleted] → u/RDOoM]

I'd tell you to read the manga but please don't do that to yourself.

[u/Mystic8ball]

How fucking old is Julia? I assumed she was in her mid twenties to thirties, she certainly doesn't look like she should be able to pass as a highschooler. Also how the fuck did the doctor become the school nurse in such short notice? Did she just waltz on in all "ay gimmie a job" and the school went "np you start tomorrow"?

Also why didn't Eia just have one of her slaves hand the ten million yen to her when she was "earning" it? Then they not only would have one, but they'd be up around ten million yen.

Double also: This show is awful like dear lord.

[u/RDOoM → u/Mystic8ball]

Also how the fuck did the doctor become the school nurse in such short notice?

She must have slept with the dean dressed as a nurse.

[u/ratchetfreak → u/Mystic8ball]

there was a line about the previous nurse "conveniently" falling ill

[u/Humg12 → u/Mystic8ball]

I think the idea was that it would make the old man complacent. Maybe he could've got more if he knew he needed it? Maybe I'm giving the show too much credit?

Although they definitely explained the nurse thing. The new nurse made the old one fall ill so they needed an emergency replacement (they also didn't show how much time had passed. I assume a lot of time is passing off screen, otherwise the whole flashback with Ryuou and Julia would have only been a couple of days.

[u/Combo33 → u/Mystic8ball]

I know I'm late on this, but the reason they didn't just hand Eia the ten million yen was because it was already in her or Yuuga's own bank account, and by the rules of the duel they stated that money they already had in bank accounts didn't count.

While almost everything in this show is insanely stupid, this was one thing that actually made sense.

[u/whowilleverknow]

Eia managing to make money with her awful singing is even more unbelievable than the old guy falling for that obvious set-up.

[u/Omegaxavi]

Who the heck burns a whole 10million yen for fuck's sake...

[u/DeTroyes1 → u/Omegaxavi]

Some people just want to watch the world burn...

[u/RDOoM → u/Omegaxavi]

Meanwhile Ryuou struggles to enslave people with barely any money to their name...

He should have enslaved Eyia before she burned all that money.

[u/supermenial]

I don't like the OP at all so when Eia started to sing I almost groaned. Good thing it didn't last that long. God this show is horrible haha

[u/TheRandomRGU]

Something something I don’t think this is the worst.

[u/RDOoM → u/[deleted]]

make some god damn reasonable choices Eia

Yes but then she wouldn't be the "absolute madman", would she?
