| Mayoiga gets credit for trying to be different, that cannot be taken away from it. Positives: - Mayoiga makes sure to create an atmosphere of mystery with the background music. This really helps you get immersed in the anime. - It has a cast of like 30 characters, and all of them are together next to each other at the same time, and that in a way is very impressive, to have such a large cast where they all play a role, even if its a small role. - Its not set in a school nor in a workplace. - Lovepon Negatives: - I wish the anime was 10 episodes instead of 12 episodes, this would have sped up its pacing a bit more, since the anime sometimes could get a bit dull every now and then. - Even though its a large cast, the majority of the characters are just used as one-dimensional-comedy-dialogues characters, like the overweight guy who only thinks of eating, or the marry couple who only think of love, etc. - It has a lot of info-dumping, which can ruined the immersion and make the anime dull. - I was expecting a bloody-horror anime, not a psychological anime. With all this said above, Mayoiga deserves credit for trying to be different. It has a great premise, but a bad presentation of its story. And shame on MAL for adding "comedy" as one of the genres, and letting themselves be part of the meme. |

| My 228th completed series chronologically. For the record, I extended it a 7/10 rating. |
| Hayato didn't sit nexto Mitsumune...... |
| I did appreciate the attempt of having a buildup to the ending. I have seen many others where there kind of just rushed or simply just abruptly end, overall, I did enjoy the series though I do not care for most of the characters, especially the ones who were stuck in the village . very sad that no Npcs died, dude got revived >:( |
| I'm speechless for mostly the wrong reasons, lmao. It's good to see that they covered the supposed villain's motivation as well but boy, you really can't guess what's ever going to happen in this series. She just picked up the phone and when the father reveal came around, I found myself just facepalming. Looks like some decided to go back while others decided to stay, huh? The couple not being able to see eye-to-eye all off a sudden was hilarious and somehow it got even funnier in this episode. To make up for it, I suppose, we got sparks from other possible couples. I don't mind comedy in serious shows but something about that here just didn't feel natural at all. Weirdly enough, though, it got to the point where I was starting to slowly acclimatise to it. Actually, I don't even know, xD. Way too many characters, trimming down some and toning down Lovepon would've helped the series a lot! Despite everything, I still had a shred of curiosity. Dumb, but not terrible, to sum up my experience. I think that's what convincing me to give this a 4/10 instead of a 2 or a 3. |
