I don't know, I've seen Record of Lodoss War twice, unfortunately, and it's so uninteresting... I really don't like that show much. I've only seen the original 12 or 13 episode series, but it doesn't exactly make me want to ever watch anything else in the franchise... I'd probably rather watch Daimao. It won't make sense, but it isn't worse than Lodoss War, overall, at least.
... Well okay, maybe it is, but really, not by much, and even if it's worse I don't know if I dislike it more... maybe not... they're both stupid.
Shouldn't I at least be able to hope that they would explain enough of the plot for it to make some kind of vague sense? I mean, a lot of bad animes do at least that...
Oh, and at least most of the female characters are decent fighters, and the other male character too. As I said Akito wins mostly because of his main character "everybody loves me" powers than because he's so unstoppable, several of hte other characters could have been decent competition if they'd tried. Of course being the kind of show it is they didn't, but still it is something -- I think the stuff I like least is when they don't just do this stupidity, but make the female characters helpless, powerless, or stupid worthless idiots on top of that. Now that I can't stand...
I don't know, Asobi no Iku Yo definitely rubs me the wrong way more... part of it is probably that it's modern day stuff instead of fantasy, while I prefer fantasy, but also the characters are much less interesting and more generic (and worse; yes, as I said I did actually like some of the Daimao characters), the plot seems mostly nonexistent (yes, Daimao had an incomprehensible plot, but they tried...)... the whole thing is just really, really awful and unwatchably bad exploitative harem junk.
I know Daimao shares some of those flaws, but still, I don't think it's quite as bad. :)

Quote:Well, here's the thing: After all the harem nonsense and over-adundance of fanservice you STILL expected that the plot would ever actually get enough time to go anywhere and/or make sense!

Quote:Asobi ni Ikuyo is doing the same thing and it'll end the same way. That's why I dropped it after skimming through the third episode.
