Boushoku no Berserk

Fate Graphite lives miserably as a gatekeeper in a world where skills given at birth determine an individual's entire life. Afflicted by the seemingly harmful skill Gluttony, which makes him perpetually hungry, he is abused by the holy knights—the supposed protectors of the populace—who view him as a dreg on society due to his skill. However, Fate's destiny takes a dramatic turn after he kills an escaping injured thief. To his surprise, Gluttony activates, enhancing his stats and granting him new skills.

Following this epiphanic event, Fate receives a job offer from Roxy Hart, the only benevolent holy knight in the city, which he happily accepts. Eager to further explore Gluttony's true potential, he partners with a mysterious talking sword named Greed, who warns him that Gluttony is a taboo skill that breaks the logic of the world. Now forced to live a double life, Fate must slay monsters at night to satisfy his awakened appetite for souls, lest he go berserk and lose all chances at finding happiness.

I would definitely recommend this if you are into op characters who starts as a weak but has a hidden power locked inside of him. Here we get to see some romance without having harem. Mc only likes one girl here. Only thing I don't like is there is no season 2.
Here the story revolves around a boy who received a sin as a power which comes with huge advantage and also has big drawback. Mc doesn't know how to you his powers first and nobody has knowledge what his skill does other than giving him more hunger. So he has to work hard just ... to fill his stomach.
Story is somewhat predictable I guess but it definitely has its unique story which makes it a lot more enjoyable. Animation is good. There i lots action and adventure involved. FMC is very kind and strong here. She liked mc from the beginning even when he was weak. She been kind to him when all where strangers to him. Mc is smart and becomes somewhat cold as the story goes on.
I think you will definitely enjoy this if you have interest in such type of story.

Mixed Feelings

What could have been a dark badass story about a guy cursed with the sin gluttony, who devours the souls of the wicked to quell his hunger, instead spends alot of its time on some lame cringe-worthy "love story" between two very dull uninteresting characters.

In fact there are no interesting characters in this. People are either wayyyy too nice, or the bad guys are @ssholes just because we need a cliche group of characters who are jerks to the MC. Its really forced.

I was hoping this would be like The Seven Deadly Sins only good...but nope, its not. They both suck.

Plot: The main character Fate ... Graphite is cursed with the useless skill of gluttony. Meaning he is always hungry. However turns out he isn't hungry for food, he is hungry for souls. One night he kills a criminal and absorbs his skills.
But now that Fate's skill of gluttony has been activated it cant stop. He needs to keep slaying foes to keep satisfying his hunger. If not his eyes will turn red and he will eventually go on a frenzy and kill indiscriminately until satisfied.

This is actually a great setup.
But instead the anime focuses on this boring romance with a Holy Knight (Lady Roxy) who's only personality is "i want to spread joy". Its just a boring surface level character like every other character in the anime. There is nothing deep about her, so you dont care.

Fate also happens to find an old talking sword in a bargain bin called "Greed"...wow what a contrived coincidence.

This anime doesn't do anything great. Fights are dull. The romance is dull. Characters are dull. Its not deep. Its not funny.

The second half of the season does get better. This is mainly because the two characters are off doing their own things and are separated for a while.
So if you can suffer through the first half you will be rewarded with something a bit better later on.
But not enough to save the anime.

started of pretty strong, but then went full SAO. 3/10 for the first third of the show. You'll like it if you liked SAO, because the main character also becomes a special little boy with special little powers by the end. I'd rather watch a fucking hentai anime for 8 hours straight with my hands tied behind my back than go through this again. It was painful looking how something i actualy enjoyed and something that i'd give like a 7 or an 8 go skydiving no parachute (or however you spell that word) all the way to a 1/10. 3/10 would recommend just to ... see you get sad like i did
