Griffith not being super-bishie? By the gods, it's even worse than I expected. If he isn't beautiful naked bisexual fountain man he isn't Griffith.

Though Farnese being dead-eyed actually works, since she's a mentally unhinged pyromaniac sadist-masochist Inquisitor-type with the typical boatload of trauma.

I mean, shit, the only people post-Eclipse who aren't headcases are best witch Schierke (though she's moving in that direction thanks to backseat-driving with Guts when he goes full berserker) and the elves. Isidro doesn't count, he's a parody of the shonen hero archetype.
Yeah, it's weird, there are details that are really good, they didn't do badly with mr. iron staff knight, and like I said, Serpico was great. Then you get mysteriously white Casca, missing-jaw Guts, and overly manly Griffith?

I mean, he's still pretty, but the missus said it best, he looked like Amalthea from The Last Unicorn, not a bishonen hero.

@Karnewarrior: give mahouka no rettousei a try if you haven't caught it yet.

... any particular reason why? Cursory look at it makes it seem like generic low-quality battle school web novel adaptation the Nth.

A bit late in the reply, but "generic" doesn't really describe Mahouka. The writer didn't have the basic level of story construction ability which would rank it as generic. Describing it as "low quality" doesn't really do it justice either. The writer had so little clue about basic story construction that it's not really on the same axis any more as series with "comparable" settings. It's like if someone wrote My Immortal by accident, and completely seriously. It's a trainwreck on every conceivable level, and manages to trainwreck itself on another entire set of inconceivable levels, which is what makes it worth checking out, rather than any other school-based battle series.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

How can anyone LIKE this series? :P

Nothing makes any goddamn sense, if you can't tell we REALLY phoned it in that episode because its hard to make jokes out of incomprehensible bullshit.

Though if I HAD to choose I would probably go with THE EYEBALLS THAT THE ANIMATORS FETISHIZE SO HARD XD

There's something that isn't fetishised in that series?

Seriously though, half the series is just close up eyeball movements. I'm not exaggerating, LITERALLY half the show's screentime is dedicated to watching peoples eyeballs move around.

I've never had a Waifu.

Can mine just be Undyne from UT, since she's basically an Anime? Or does that violate the Waifu Conventions?
