The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady
AurasNep said: Lycroris had average (at best) story-telling. Don't know why this show being "slightly better" than average has to be mentioned. Achievement? Sigmar-Unberogen said: the story telling was better with than Lycoris recoil and the title of this anime pretty much tells you what the plot is aboutUnfortunately have to agree with OP. This certainly isn't a bad show, but it had such a good potential IMO. Shame it became one of those "forgettable" shows. OST is good though, and certainly worth listening. I've read the title, so? Doesn't make the show any less forgettable. Funny enough Lycoris is more popular than this show, and is thus arguably less forgettable. |
| The first 2 or 3 eps were great... but there was no plot in the end. Most of the motivations for the characters are just dumb... The whole brother arc was terrible, Laine was meaningless to the whole story. The only thing that made sense was Euphilia. I agree that it tried to be many things and failed in most of them. |

| Glad never think of this as that good since the start anyway, it's just another isekai but yuri. |
| Not really disappointment, but its potential was wasted. |
 |
| wanting any series to be like LycoReco is such an insult I can't even begin to describe |

The conflict with Al was terribly clichéd (and I don't think he was a good villain), and Anis' mentality change (or when her mask crumbled) felt really off. The fight with Al also felt like a shounen battle at times (someone bleeding to death in the corner and they're just arguing grandly back and forth for too long, explaining everything to the viewer), which I didn't enjoy; overall I thought the Algard arc was very weak. LostSpectre said: I don't really see the conflict between any of those things? I just assume we're missing important context, which is typical of LN adaptations. LostSpectre said: I don't really see the conflict between any of those things? I just assume we're missing important context, which is typical of LN adaptations. the Anime has skipped too many details on other characters' opinions regarding how does princess Anis look like in their eyes, such as: 1. How does Anis look like from her Father and Mother point of view? 2. How does Anis look like from her closest friends (illya, Titly) point of view? in episode 2, Anis actually almost got Exposed by Euphie lol Euphie blatantly asked Anis, "Who... I mean, What are you really?" in episode 4, Anis said "While I am still I am, I need to obtain that Dragon magic crystal at any cost!!" it's shown that she low-key knew that one day she might have to abandon herself for the sake of princess Anis, fulfilling her responsibility as a noblewoman, or as the daughter of her new biological mother & father Fast forward to episode 8 & 9, we can see how weird Al-kun and Anis conversation it's shown that Al-kun low-key knew that there has always been something 'off' about his royal sister, that's why he's quite angery the whole time, he keeps shouting Anis full name. on the other side, Anis keeps beating around the bushes by being vague the whole time Anis told Al-kun, "I am is I am" As a result, obviously Al-kun got even angrier and triggered by his royal sister dodging attitude in episode 9, Anis grasped Al-kun's hands and said to herself "if I was able to live a normal life in this world, you wouldn't have to suffer like this..." in episode 11, even Tilty is shown sacred shitless of Anis's new mask, she was like "why are wearing that face...?" even her closest friends can't see the real Anis. it gets worse, Anis is shown exposing her true self in front of everyone "I'm the princess of this country! I'm Anis Wynn Palettia!!" her mother, father and even illya are also sacred shitless of the real Anis now Regrettably the Anime completely skipped the part when Anis's mother talked about how does Anis look like in her eyes to Euphie and Lainie Anis is a woman with multiple faces and everything changed when the fire nation- I mean when Al-kun attacked, in LN vol 3 it's explicitly written on table of contents that her masks are indeed crumbling to dust So yeah, I don't think people's complaints about the show are because of the way the anime adapted it, I feel like those problems were already present in the light novel. I'm not criticizing what you wrote, though, you're 100% correct in what you've said; I just wanted to write how I felt about it to get my thoughts in order. I still have to finish the last 3 episodes of the anime, though, so who knows - maybe Anis' change will feel more natural in the anime. Also, this is sort of unrelated, but who approved the decision to spoil the vampire reveal in the colored illustrations at the start of volume 2??? That was a terrible decision. |

starflutter said: Well, at least we have another yuri anime starting on April 6. I haven't seen that much buzz around it but hopefully it will be good! Yes, and G-Witch season 2, and Birdie Wing season 2. We're basically getting at least one Yuri anime in each season this year. I fully expect the next couple of years to be a Yuri desert, but we dine like kings and queens this year. I consider Magirevo to be easy wish fulfillment, but I still enjoyed it a lot. It just doesn't happen often that a Yuri anime reaches anything resembling a conclusion, including a confession and multiple kisses, and has more than decent visuals and a fantastic OST, and it's not just slice of life, school drama or comedy. The writing is not the smartest, but all things considered this is still an entry in the genre that I feel like I can be proud of. |

| I didn't hate it but it has a lot of small flaws that continue to add up as the series goes, and the third arc was just kind of a mess for me. happy for the actual kiss in the show, but the Euphie becomes queen by... becoming a spirit contractor despite Anis not wanting that arc was... not great? It felt really convoluted and melodramatic and not all that well explained why any of this was necessary. also, they should have kissed in the sky while flying over the city. |

| It had a alot of potential but after Algard it went downhill. Pacing was way to fast towards the end. |

SATAN19 said: All the 100 people that hate on LycoRico gathering in this thread LycoReco pretty much altered the hierarchy of aniplex and a1 itself. The sales were absurd like 20k far beating out like anything in recent years except jjk and kny. The chisato figure got the most pre orders I have ever seen. We kind of thank lyco reco for killing future seasons of kaguya, 86, Engage Kiss since lyco reco became their golden goose. Personally I find lyco reco like the woman king. |
SATAN19 said: LycoReco was intended as a standalone and now they are trying to milk it so quality almost surely it won't be as good. It is kind of a hard series to milk and Chisato kind of lost a ton of best girl polls. But it kind of proves Aniplex is still on top of the game. Kadokawa cannot compete no matter what Re Zero fans say since LycoReco sold more than double Re Zero and Konosuba in today's climate, so Kadokawa will have to rely on mass producing shows for now.But i see what you're trying to say it might have changed the whole scenario for other anime that might or might not come after LycoRico. Well maybe the s2 won't be as good and evens out what had been established by the 1st season, who knows. I don't think it ever tried to be comedic and barely any of in it. It was largely action focused |

SATAN19 said: Aniplex will pretty much always milk stuff and meddle with their shows. They milked SAO and Fate to the point they have cross their ending points and doing bad at the box office. When Demon Slayer got viral, ufotable pretend that the fate franchise didn't exist and went all in on Demon Slayer.I don't think they are milking it. They did hint the existence of the male LycoRico organisation so they'll probably build the story on it. It isn't a comedy but it did have subtle comedy bits with every now and then which made it a lot more enjoyable. But anyways I don't really mind Lycorico getting a new season over most of other anime because i know I'll end up enjoying it xD Even during Summer 2022, as soon as Kojima was promoting Lycoris, they likely diverted all marketing from Engage Kiss and pretend it doesn't exist to push this. And likely diverted any marketing from Kaguya and 86. Aniplex has a ton of executive power over shows vs Kadokawa that is too divided between too many companies. Media Factory cannot just take budget away from something like a project from Fujimi Shobo. |

| While I was disappointed as I think the show didn't match its potential I hardly thought it was terrible. It did have an identity crisis, wish there was more than 12 eps to flesh out the world and characters more. People comparing this to Lycoris Recoil and this was definitely better than that for me. |
 |
| I will admit it could have been handled better, but by no means it's the worst of the season... Still I hoped it focused more on the Magicology and Magic like at the beggining, but instead it went into drama that got dragged even though I heard they rushed the ending... Because until now I still don't get if Anis can't use Magic or not, since she uses Dragon power (magic?) or when she says she is magicless is she talking about elemental magic or something? What about the supposedly Dragon knowledge... they never mentioned it again or was it just the hability to use it's power? Now I'm conflicted if there's a sequel, because if it won't focus on the above, it'll just be a fantasy/magic anime heavily focused on romance/drama (it still can have it, but please not the main focus) and that isn't really what I was looking for when they gave us the first half of the season. |
| Considering it's the only anime I've watched this season, and I was extremely disappointed, then yes it's my biggest disappointment. I thought it started off well but just got progressively worse and worse with each passing episode. |
| Personally, MagiRevo was not the biggest anime disappointment this season. That dishonorable award goes to Spy Classroom. GangsterCat said: As of Episode 12, this show is anything but yuribait. Is this anime about comfy Slice of Life yuribait while inventing magical tool stuff? Is this anime about serious political conflict drama? Is this anime about fighting strong opponents with flashy power ups and beams? a battle shonen? Now after seeing various comments online, I got the impression that for viewers the series was at its most enjoyable when it had Anis & Euphie in cutesy SOL moments. And that was reflected here on MAL with the show enjoying a 7.80+ rating during the first nine episodes. Then Episodes 10-11 happened, where the MAL rating fell below 7.80. One positive review said that the shift was akin to "let's roleplay a PG-13 Game of Thrones." Except, the show handled the political drama so clumsily that I can't blame people feeling that Anis' personality took a turn for the worse amidst the contrived conflict depicted in the latter episodes. And the showrunners seemed to realize this by sweeping under the rug the paper-thin politics and upping the yuri to eleven in the final Episode with not one, but three kisses.

| Op is on mind altering chemicals for sure, this show was pretty good. |

| Considering the potential it showed in the first few episodes then perhaps it might be but I'd say Kami-tachi ni Hirowareta Otoko s2 was the biggest dissapointment. |

Story itself doesn't deserve its high sales.wanting any series to be like LycoReco is such an insult I can't even begin to describe Fail_Man_X said: Spy Classroom got over hated cuz people think it is a harem so they must review bomb it. Show is okay. Biggest disappointment would by far be vinland saga season 2. Almost feels like watching a different show and has none of the highs of season 1. Tokyo Revengers dragged and got repetitive.As for being"the biggest disappointment of the season", you're free to feel that way, but I don't think expectations were very high to begin with. A number of sequels aren't living up to past seasons (Tokyo Revengers), and Spy Classroom flopped so hard it's easy to forget it was one of the bigger shows coming in to this season. Personally, I thought High Card had a strong first episode, but it's been all downhill since then. |
Fail_Man_X said: Spy Classroom itself wasn't that good a show but only an idiot cannot deny that social media itself is filled with score manipulation since there is always a group that screams "harem" or "ecchi" on the top of their lungs like som sort of f8g. Vinland Saga Season 2 also score season 1 which shouldn't be happening so it is declining, and basically crashed on polls. Pretty much nothing happened in season 2 vs season 1. As for this show, if majority of comments are shipping threads, you can tell it is not getting carried by the story. Not to mention a huge portion of the audience laughs at this stuff. Especially men from other countries.What is the excuse for scoring lower than every other "harem" show save Fruit of Evolution and the dog show? |
| this anime is the surprise for me. I just can't get enough of it. hoping for a season 2. There are plenty thing in the LN that I want to see in anime form. hehe  |
| my overall impression of this show is boring, there are many episodes i don't enjoy watching, just enduring them for the sake of closure. too many unnecessary drama because Anis wants to have the cake and eat it too, thus ignoring Tilty's realistic solution to escape the kingdom and chose to abandon her "researching magicology" dream instead.. Where is the logic in this? how come abandoning your whole dream is better than realizing half of your dream (in which all she would lose is her princess status)? |
