Kono Danshi, Mahou ga Oshigoto desu.

Honestly I really enjoyed these 40 minutes. Even though it was a short story and not many different characters it was still pretty satisfying to me. Unlike other I want to look towards the positive side of the anime, which is for me more important.

The story pretty much focuses on the main character's emotional life and them as an individual, it shows how one thinks about themselves as a person. I was able to relate to the the character's judgements as it strongly spoke about how a person judge's their own personality and how it can be a good or a bad thing. There is ... not much to the romantic part (bl scences and all) but rather it talks about the issues of a character as in accepting themselves for who they are...

(PS. I came here as a fujoshi, there were cute scenes between the main character and his love, even though there were no hardcore romantic scenes, STILL I wasn't dissapointed it was rather a fun experience facing the truth)

This is pretty uncalled but still I have to mention it ->

(ANIMATIONS WERE A BLAST LIKE HOW THEY DID THE BACKGROUND, OPENING AND THE SPECIAL HIGHLIGHTS)

I pressed random on Crunchyroll and was directed to this anime. ​As someone who has never seen this type of art style before, it was mesmerizing. My eyes stayed glued to the screen for all 4 episodes.

The story was simple and easy to follow along.
The music was lovely, and the sound effects appropriate.
The characters were wholesome and endearing. Not once did I second-guess the character’s intentions.

Just a straightforward and heartwarming short series. Even with the struggles present in the story, it remained lighthearted. It's perfect for anyone that is not looking for anything long and heavy. I enjoyed it immensely.

If ... I were to describe the series in one word it would be: lovely.

I'm going to be honest and say that the reason I gave this show a 6 and not a 5 was only because of the shounen ai elements on it.

Story: 4
There was something lacking on this, maybe the fact that it seems so rushed, which is something to be expected since it has only 4 episodes with 7 minutes each. However I have seen the studio do much better with less time. The fact that the events happen so quickly doesn't really give you time to feel anything for the characters.

Art: 8
As always the studio does a great job with the backgrounds and the general ... art. If you have seen any other shounen-ai animes from them I can safely assure you that the art is just as pretty as in any other of their works. Even though there's a certain amount of dark colors (since the anime as a lot of scenes at night). The magic themes on the anime were beautifully made. Since the characters barely move it's a plus to have pretty backgrounds.

Sound: 6
You focus exactly on what you need to focus since the background sounds aren't annoying or useless. Plus the voice actors made a good job.

Characters: 6
We have two characters: Kashima (the one who works to much and doesn't have any interest in love) and Utsumi (the kind and accepting characters that falls in love with our main character). It's all very cliché really but at least there's some character developing happening.


Enjoyment: 6
It's a short anime that you should definitely watch if you want something with a good ending and that will make you feel happy at the end. However if you are looking for a good plot maybe you should look for something different.

Overall: 6
