For all you awesome people, it's just Phoenix. The numbers are just the amount of times people misspell it.
is this ep subbed?
So is it better or worst then Mai Hime?
Or too soon to judge?
It's a little weird. It doesn't feel like the same show as Mai-Hime. You recognize alot of characters but they have all changed.
Its a pretty good first episode I just hope they explain what happend to all the Himes the action is the same as the previous serious so it looks like is goin to be a good one

I really liked the parallel with the desert and the sandship and the ferry of the first one in the first 5 minutes. A nice homage to the original. But it was even better that they ignored her completely.
Awsome first episode. Shizuru is better than before in here. I want to know where this show is centered at. It seems that something happened betwwen here and the end of Hime. Nina said something about perserving Earth's tech. I want to know how that happened. I've seen alot of new and interesting characters as well as some old ones. I checked the opening and the boy (can't remember his name) with the blueish silver hair is back. I swear that I also saw Mai in the opening with the Kagutsuchi symbol.
I took too long writing this, so I'll just elaborate off what Phoenix20578 said:
Mai-Otome is related to Mai-Hime, but not in any sort of contiguous story line. It is a completely different universe, convienently populated by many of the same looking people. Some have the same if not similar names, but they are different people dealing with different problems.
-Mashiro (the headmaster of Mai-Hime, always in a wheelchair) is the princess of the country (forgot its name) of where they are.
-Natsuki is the headmaster of the Galdelupe school where bodyguards (and whatever else MAiD's do) are trained.
-Mikoto is now a fat cat.
-Akane appears to be playing a much larger role in this series.
-Aoi (the brunette of Mai's two friends) is apparently a high ranking maid (the regular kind as far as I can tell) of Mashiro.
The rest of the series description I got from AniDB:
The MAiDs aren't quite your usual run-of-the-mill maids. They support royalty and politicians, and act as advisors to them as well. It's a profession all the girls want to do when they grow up. Girls who want to become MAiDs are gathered from each country and attend the MAiD training school, Galdelupe, for two years and undergo intensive training, after which they become MAiDs. The chosen among them who have the abilities might dream of becoming "My Star MAiDs".
Ah. Thanks for the info.
I wanna know if Mia will return as the all powerful one again. I saw her in the opening blasting all those slaves. It looked really cool.
This isnt a direct sequel. Its a parallel universe.Originally posted by: nests

I'm giving this sereis two more eps to see where it goes but it's too CUTE for my taste. Ok idea but they could have been a littel more original on the Bloody Character design.
I'd say the first episode was pretty good. It was awkward watching it with the same characters, but not exactly the same. Mai needs to come back and take a bath [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
this looks like a more light headed version of Mai-hime? the world is a fantasy setting instead of the real thing, there's lots of weirdly-cute outfits and no one seems to be serious about anything.
think i'll keep watching it though, if not only for the magical ninja girl action and perversion of language.
didn't seem terrible, altho i was pretty disappointed with the way the other series ended. i guess i'll give it a go. shows about awakening latent mysterious powers is always the cheap way for me to suckered into watching =P
What kind of series is this? and how was the first one? should I watch it first?
so many questions...
Watch it, because none of us can really make a jugdement yet, there's only been one episode.
Also, its a sci-fi/fantasy anime, if thats possible.

coo... i'm downloading it... but should I watch the first season before this or not? if its an alternate reality thing i guess not... but sometimes it helps...
You'll recognize the characters if you watch My HiME, thats about it.

Just watch the first series first... there's no reason to simply just jump on this series...Originally posted by: Darknodin
