The first episode of mahou shoujo vehicle promotion hybrid Houkago no Pleiades has aired, setting up the series as its heroine becomes accustomed to utilizing her innate magical prowess – though it is ultimately shaping up to be a rather generic magical gear series thus far, according to some.

Originality is a monumentally worthless concept in disposable entertainment, if an idea was good to begin with it will continue to be good after countless iterations as long as nobody haphazardly injects anything "original" into the mix. "Generic" means essentially nothing without context and says absolutely nothing about the quality of a series, i.e. a random generic 80's mecha, or 60's-80's mahou shoujo is still a great show, a generic cute girls SoL is nearly always a flawless masterpiece, a generic romcom or harem is nearly always always unwatchable, a generic post-80's mecha is almost always vomit-inducingly bad, etc. Personally I never really cared for the 90's battle-style mahou shoujo but I usually found it watchable up until Madoka took a shit into the mold, here's hoping it doesn't try that annoying wannabe-grimdark crap and at least makes a passing attempt at being an article of entertainment instead of jerking itself off.
And even if you totally avoid harem, romcom, and mecha you still typically have between 20-30 shows to watch a season.
Oh god, the literal car engine sound effects haha
Generic = Not enough grimdark suffering or "service".
i came here to see cars..... where the hell are they?
I think the title was referring to the band, The Cars, which actually annoys me a little as I like The Cars and don't find them generic at all. Anyway can't quite tell about this show yet.
This is so generic... I hope it gets darker.
Hope your life gets darker then it already is too.
hmmm, generic mahou shoujo with absolutely no service in it? ... well at least it has high production values going for it.
Who needs this PoS when there's Nanoha Vivid around to enjoy?
Subaru's bean counters.
generic?....... all the generic anime in the past at least 5 years, and this is generic?.
That word "generic" is so misused and overused. *yawn*
I am surprised how some people still dare to pinpoint "generic" anime, seeing how the industry itself is pretty generic nowadays. You literally need to knitpick any original and/or creative anime from the rest now.
Hell, this site alone exemplifies this reality very well.
Honestly, I think these people have just been watching way too much anime to the point of being jaded
the closest thing to unique released this season is ore monogatari and that is thanks to the MC of that anime.
You forget to mention that this is basically a stitched episode of the 4 short ovas that were made long ago. Still looks good.
Wanna know what else's generic? That male love interest fuckface.
The only fuckface I see is you.
Fuckface brat
Shit logic
I just came to the comments to see if that one loser is there complaining about male characters.
I just came to the comments to see if that one loser is there upvoting his own comments complaining about male characters and downvoting people calling him out as a loser.
Highly original?
Definitively not.
Eagerly awaiting for the inevitable yuri doujins?
Definitively yes.
Yeah too bad there's a fucking male love interest bastard who already killed this series' yuri.
Because male characters being in a series totally stops everyone from creating yuri doujins...
Much to learn.
Yurifag
Shit logic
