For shows I dropped I put the score I gave for whatever I've watched in the tags.
My scores are based on my own personal enjoyment. I recommend any show that’s 7+ depending on what type of shows you like. I like drama and comedy so you’ll see that bias in my scores.
Thanks Pennsmash :) I want to become more active and hopefully get some traction writing seasonal reviews again, but life is hectic and free time is minimal. Thanks for checking in!
"because of the art style character designs and expressiveness of the characters faces (which bocchi lacks btw)"
Yea, I'm sorry, you got me very lost there. I'm not saying Onimai's one dimensional characters don't have any facial expressiveness, though, it's still quite impressive for what it's worth as another passion project by the studio. Saying Bocchi of all thing having none of that is so weird to me considering the amount of idiosyncratic artistic direction they were going with especially with the character acting and it doesn't need to be just facial expressions...it's like saying Bocchi needs to have like KyoAni-like facial expressions to be even considered good in your eyes.
I just don't see any significant positive value with the so-called character dynamics you claim it has. Feels like the usual hijinks with 90% of other cute girl shows. Is it necessarily bad? Nah, but it's not something worth raving about, to put it lightly. I'm glad you admit that the fanservice is not ideal, cause it's frankly not my main issue with the series.
If you relate a lot more to Mahiru than the Bocchi cast and people with social anxiety in general, then I guess it is what it is. However, as even as someone who really likes Mushoku Tensei for its own goals with character introspection, I can't say that Mahiru's piece is particularly progressive at all, or at least any bit interesting or entertaining. Yes, there's slivers of progression and nuances here and there, though, but it's nothing ingenious as you think it is, especially when its 4-koma manga material is mostly perpetual SoL gags. Perhaps it can turn out like the Takagi-San anime and be its own thing, but it has yet to do anything to warrant such a label. If this sort of thing speaks more value to you than the likes of something more fundamentally thought out and influential like Bocchi The Rock, then so be it. The reasonings you initially have in favor of shows like this against that of Bocchi are just too odd to me, though.
After your previous points of argument with Bocchi The Rock and now seeing you gave CSM a 9 and Onimai (of all things) an 8, I can’t help but consider that perhaps those points are undoubtedly invalidated right then and there. CSM may be inherently sound according to the mainstream majority due to being unique and orthodox, but honestly only Denji and Makima seemed to make the series interesting, at least; the concepts and story at hand aren’t particularly that special even if one tries to look deep into it.
I don’t even want to get started with Onimai, considering it’s an ACTUAL typical cute girl show and format but with a gender bender tweak and suggestive context….I’m not sure how those two are supposedly better unless if this is a massive bias on your part, which I can completely understand if it IS the case, since it seems you have Mahiro in your favorites list.

Also, nice Re:Zero, Onimai and Bocchi the Rock reviews.
