If you don't know already, circlet princess failed to be picked up for localization. Therefore if you wanted to watch it you had to do so through some, not so legal, means with a fansub. That or you have connections of some kind. In the end, no one talked about it.
It is about yuka, a country girl that went to the city on scholarship. While she was there she learned about a new sport and through a misunderstanding she fights the champion. After that she is determined to fight her again. Stuff happens and eventually she join a tournament with a new team in order
...
to try again.
It a rather basic plot if you really think about it but it is handled well. But there isnt much to talk about. Watch the girls and what happens as they try to win.
The art and animation is unremarkable, not bad but doesnt stand out in anyway. It just gets the job done as for the characters as well.
In the end, try it out, it a good time waster anime or just a simple guilty pleasure

Grisaia, a story known for two things, a main character who has sex with EVERYONE including his biological mother, adoptive mother, sister.... You get it... and assassins. Now guess what Phantom trigger doubles down on... Assassins.
Okay, to summarize this plot, there is an entire school of wannabe assassins, our somewhat main character is a new teacher at this school who's class are the problem children that are made up of cute girls and a trap. The actual show is watching them fight with a backstory tossed in somewhere every once in a while.
This would be great if the show had the animation
...
budget for it but it doesn't. It is not all bad but you get more than your fair share of close ups and other gimmicks to save cost. They allocate everything else to the quick fights but since they are quick overall the show is lacking.
The characters themselves so far fall into tropes, the short cute tsundere that doesn't want to be called cute. The dumb energetic big boobed girl that happens to be good at shooting. I'm not going to go over them all now but they aren't completely bland, they just aren't special.
To summarize it all, it is not a completely bad show but i suggest you watch the parts with the harem god of a mc first just so you are invested. When it comes to the sex and stuff it is extremely toned down from the source material if you aren't up for it. A lot is even cut out so sit in for the unique plot that no other show has. After you are
attached to the brand come to this.

This season's wholesome harem anime. And with that it has already become quite popular.
We follow Futaro. His character isn't anything new but feels like it. His parents are gone leaving him with a large debt. On top of that he has to take care of his adorable little sister which probably takes more care of him.
In his luck a rich family moves in and they need a tutor for their five daughters...Which happen to be quintuplets...And the parents aren't around. Also all of the girls hate studying and get grades so bad that they shouldn't even be possible.
Each of the girls have their own
...
trope. They aren't just walking tropes and that's all to them, but they aren't the deepest characters in the world.
Miku has already slated herself to be best girl among fans with her cute design, odd tastes and kuudere trope.
Ichika is the lewd sister and that's all you need to know without spoilers.
Then there is the two tsunderes (because we cant have too many of those) Nino and Itsuki. The difference between the two being that Nino is higher maintenance.
And last is Yotsuba, the ditzy one who is great at sports and stuff like that.
Everything else in this show doesn't stand out from anything else in the genre. Keep it cute and simple for music and animation.
From a critic's point of view this show isn't anything special. It's a teenage boy getting in awkward situations with cute girls. All he wants to do is help them learn but they make it extremely difficult.
It's tweaked from other shows in the genre but it is nothing you haven't seen before. Even say that though, the show is amazing and deserves a watch. If you like your wholesome harems, this will not disappoint.
I give it a 8/10

It is easy to call this season more of the same. If you liked the first season this is just more of it, so eat it up.
If you were to pick out a difference it would be the motivations of those outside of the main characters
The plot has become about the seat of student council president being up for grabs and the votes being able to be gambled.
In theory, whoever has the most votes become president. And the position of president matters because...(spoiler) Reasons.
Also to keep things interesting they added more high ranking characters that are as sadistic as everyone else. That may be exaggerating,
...
but you get the point.
Once again, it is more of the same. Different versions of the same gimmick. It's not boring and it doesn't have an repetitive feel, but if you aren't a fan it isn't going to agree with you.
The music isn't as good as the first season's. And I don't mean because of the sound, but it's purpose. The first season did a better job of telling you what you are in for and how you should feel. It did it quite exceptionally, leaving this one to feel...Meh.
Overall, I'll give it a 7 or 8 out of ten. The animation is fine the waifus still look amazing. It also has a fair share of culture mixed. Not that the culture matters to enjoying it. It also introduces you to games that you kinda wanna play. Give it a watch if you like the first season and it's craziness.

Backstreet girls, of course, is about a group of idols called the Gokudolls. Three yakuza that screwed up on a job as punishment turned in lucrative idols through sex change.
The story is a series of shorts that flashback to pasts as men and what it took to be a yakuza among the changes to their lives incurred by becoming idols. Crazy and perverted fans to industry professionals among many more plotlines.
The jokes are well done considering what it is, I can get a least a chuckle out of many of them.
The animation is a series of still frames with lip flaps moving
...
around, in other words, poor. I find the show enjoyable despite this but it does stand out. The actual artwork is interesting and dynamic for the stories then they flip back between it and another still shot taking away from it.
The voice actors and music is what really sells this show. There are a lot of fun to listen to especially with how they are incorporated in the show. A lot of this series would fall flat without the great delivers and music.
The characters are actually quite varied for what they are. how they treat their new situation and adjust to it is quite interesting. Especially when they have their bro downs. they are greats friends and when one of them gets too comfortable with being an idol another will bring them back to their senses.
Overall, this show is really good apart from the animation. It might have a crazy synopsis but it uses it well. If you haven't check out ignore the still frames and you will enjoy it.

It's another isekai anime. Everyone's favorite genre. Our main character is a game dev that after finishing an all-nighter ends up in another game. Through plot convenience, her levels up 310 levels in the span of a couple minutes but no one in the show knows that, so he's op for the sake of being op. Watch as he walks around this world with cute girls and does stuff.
The art isn't special. No bad but it what we can call generic for modern anime.
The sound overall is also what you would expect from standard anime.
The characters are also what you expect from these shows.
...
over-sexualized underaged girls hang out with op main character because he chooses to be nice to everyone and that's all you need to get girls to pay attention to you. (I'm kinda complaining but they don't hang out with him for no reason, which means a lot in this genre.)
As I've said throughout this whole review, this show doesn't do much to set it apart. If you like isekai then you like this, plain as that. Don't get me wrong it's very well written for what it is but, it doesn't do anything out of the ordinary.

The story in this really is hit or miss. It can either be extremely boring or deep and interesting, dependent on who you are. You watch as a former military veteran attempts to adjust to new life as a civilian. This cute girl veteran is very awkward around others as she is much like a robot because of she was trained and doesn't really understand civilian thoughts like love. This is an issue because she has chosen to write letters for people but doesn't understand what they are trying to convey and often takes things too literally. You watch as she figures this human
...
emotions thing out.
The art is the reason a lot of people picked this up in the first place and why a lot of people haven't dropped it. It's as movie quality as an anime can get and done by one of the most infamous studios out there. Do as you wish with that information.
The sound complements the art as rather soothing and I'm not narrowing to the music. Not much else about it stands out.
The characters aren't walking tropes which is nice but, They can be very difficult to connect with which is something many people tend to complain about. It adds to the boring story which makes it very difficult to trudge through, some may even tend to call most of them emotionless. There are small fun moments but they may come across as forced when you get there. The main character is the biggest culprit as she tends to drag everyone else down to her level with her depressing exposition.
Overall, 7/10 I don't really care for this anime. It's not bad at all it just very difficult to get into especially if you're like me and couldn't care less about art.

We used to have Big 3 when it comes to anime including shows like Naruto, One piece, and Dragonball. Throw Fairytail in there also. Now as those shows are going away we look to replace them and this show was supposed to be one of those shows hyped to the point it crashed streaming websites when it released. The thing is all this show has are the bad parts of the Big 3. The story also wants to be compared to them and since it is I'm going to compare them here.
The story is about a boy who can't use magic but through some stroke
...
of determination and luck gets a powerful magic only he can use. I purposely manipulating this to sound like Boku no hero academia. Both main characters don't have something commonplace in this world just to get one of the strongest options somehow. Now we can compare it to Naruto, where all they did was replace Hokage with Wizard King as that is our main characters main goal to be the one over them all. Then you have Fairytail's magic elements on top of the fact he basically joined the Fairytail guild and yada yada yada. You have probably had these comparisons drilled into your head by now. All you need to know is this show doesn't do any of things nearly as well as the others except for maybe Fairytail that one is being debated by everyone. And before I move on when the second episode is filler that tells you this show isn't going to have good things to come. The pacing of the show is horrendous as it starts off super slow then starts moving very quickly and slows down again. They even negate some things turning some episodes into nothing but filler that added nothing to the characters development. (No saying it won't make you like a character more or not but objectively it adds nothing.)
The art is good. I don't love it but it's not bad at all the magic looks really good but that's the only thing I really like about it everything else I find around meh.
The music is all that special to me either. No songs still out to me as good or bad because I can't even remember them as it really isn't anything special. But there is one thing that I will get into with characters. The japanese voice actors are perfectly cast and that's not exactly a good thing. ( more on that later.)
Time to let loose the characters.
Asta is the main character of this story and like I said before he can't use magic but you need magic to pretty much do anything in this world as people without it are unheard of except for him. Honestly, all he knows how to do is scream at the top of his lungs I mean listening to him makes me want to blow my brains out. This makes Dragonball look tame and people joke about that all the time. You might grow numb to his voice over time or you might not, either way, you might want to seek out the dub instead. But he is determined although he can't use magic he trains his heart out all day working on his physical abilities and ends up with a grimoire something signifying magic in this world. But his is special as these books all have clovers 1-4 usually 4 being very impressive but our magicless protagonist gets a 5 leaf which means he as the power of the devil or something like that which lets him use a huge sword like another story we know that cuts down magic and negates it completely. Overall his character is super annoying and his ability just leaves me bored as this isn't the first useless main character is actually useful story and I would rather watch any one of those at this point.
The other main character I'm going to go over is our token overpower rival character Sauske... sorry I mean Gray, No Yuno, yeah Yuno. Yuno gets a 4 leaf is naturally good at magic and our main character uses him as a motivation get stronger. He is a rather emotionless character that looks up to Asta determination because he saved him this one time. I'm just going to cut it there and say this character means nothing to me.
The side characters (guild members.) can be very similar to fairytail, We have a chick that drinks a lot and wears rather lewd clothing like kana. a overbearing and energetic character like natsu. a powerful and serious like gildarts occasionally can be, etc.
Overall, unless you love shonen anime do not touch this with a ten-foot pole. Watch the shows this wants to replace instead at least you don't have to wait for new episodes. and you have watched them watch them again. This show has nothing redeemable so far maybe it will and I'm going to keep watching because I'm shonen trash. But so far this is a complete garbage can of a show. I'm not saying you can't enjoy this but it's really not good.

The story is about a group of people restarting the anime club at their school. So this is another club anime, just another club anime. it does nothing to set it apart from the others. It's the same plotline and tropes you have seen in other club anime from the cosplay to the conventions. It doesn't do these tropes even better or worse than other shows it is just that if you have seen one of these you've seen most of them.
The art isn't anything special generic cute characters and animation. The mascot is different at least (as much as it can be.) but that's
...
the only thing that stands out.
The music and characters are also what you would expect going into this. The voice actors can be typed cast by their voices and the music is upbeat. You'll probably forget about all of it.
The characters like I alluded to before aren't special. I could probably list at least ten clones for each of their personalities easily. If you are newer to anime or just adore these series they work but the more you get into these club animes the more tired you get to them. I'm not saying club anime are bad I just want different at this point especially coming off of Gamers which did different well and tried it's best to be its own thing.
5/10 overall. If I was newer to anime I would love this but, since I'm not, I'm just bored watching this. If you have watched one of these, you've seen most of them.

Our main character asks out the overly attractive girl but she's not what he expected. That is the premise of this show and that would be fine if not for a couple things. This girl is inexperienced but perverted in a way always assuming his fetishes. This is fine for like maybe the first two episodes then it just gets boring and repetitive. It wasn't that funny to start with but now it complete cringe as the same jokes get made every episode but in different ways.
I like the art and love the character designs. It cute and fun. Can't say much more about it
...
than that.
The music and voice actors push a cute vibe. You might find it annoying you might not. If you are into moe anime you would probably like it. The voice actors do seem limited by their characters though. they really only have one tone to stick to so it's hard to judge.
The characters are fine at the start but get old fast. like I said before it just the same jokes being repeated over and over so the characters get tiresome also. The personalities are special they stick to their roles and nothing else. It's rather boring. They added a new character but nothing much has changed if anything about the vibe this show gives off. If she wasn't added the story would be exactly the same. She is just a gateway to the tired jokes.
Overall, watch the first episode then drop it. that first episode is all you are going to be seeing throughout this. It's not a bad anime just boring to watch because there is never anything new.
