Honestly, I only watched this anime knowing I could finish it VERY quickly, considering the episodes are only 4 minutes long. Now, I don't wanna say that "I wasted my time with this anime." But I also don't wanna say "I really liked this anime either." To be honest, I don't really have a solid opinion of this anime. There were parts I thought were kinda cute, but most of the time it was just sorta cringe.
This series doesn't really deserve a full review, so I'll be quick.
STORY: 3/10. Boring, and it didn't make me actually feel like I was interacting with the girls.
ART:
...
7/10. The art, to be honest, is nice. It's pretty, and smooth for the most part. But, it's a little bland.
SOUND: 7/10. Not really much to say. There was music, voice acting, and sound effects. All sounded fairly okay.
CHARACTER: 1/10. I really don't like the girls in this show. They're annoying and clingy.
ENJOYMENT: 6/10. As I said, I don't have a solid opinion of this series. I know people like akidearest really hated it, but... I don't know. It's aimed at a specific kind of fan. Now, to be honest, I like dating simulators, but this didn't feel like one.
OVERALL: 5/10. Watch it, don't watch it, it's fine. I don't think anybody's waifu comes from this show. Whatever.
Thanks for reading!

Hi. I just needed to kill some time before I could go play games with a friend.
Let's start this review for an anime that I quite like: As Miss Beelzebub Likes It. In my opinion, it's an adorable anime that's great to watch when you have nothing else to do. You'll get one or two quick laughs here and there, a cute cast of characters, and an epic opening. Let's begin!
1. STORY: 5/10
Okay, since the anime is a slice-of-life slow-burn romcom, there's not gonna be an epic overarching plot. Every episode presents the cute slices-of-life of the ruler of Hell ( which in this show
...
is so cute it seems like heaven ), Miss Beelzebub, and her assistant, Mullin.
The closest the show ever got to having any sort of epic story or conflict was when every now and then, Mullin and Beelzebub would be interrupted while they were having a romantic moment. Like I stated above, the series is something I recommend you watch when you have nothing else to do and you just want an excuse to watch some cute demons go about their everyday lives.
2. ART: 7/10
I'm a sucker for kawaii art styles, but I feel as if this show takes that concept to a whole new level, which I'm in love with. All the characters look unique yet feel similar, and they all show their personalities fairly well through their designs. The animation is smooth, playful, and... fluffy. I'm not joking, the characters look like Dolfie Dream dolls ( only not 3D of course ). The food the characters eat looks delicious and adorable. And the non-human creatures are probably my favorite part of the art. They look like stuffed animals. Overall, I'm a fan of the art in this show, but I will admit that it's nothing too special. Yes, I find it adorable, but if you came to this anime expecting art like Madoka Magica, you'll be let down.
3. SOUND: 8/10
( I'm assuming that "sound" is referring to the voice acting and sound effects. )
I have to admit, as of the time I'm writing this I haven't seen a lot of anime, so I don't know EVERYTHING when it comes to good voice acting. However, I have to say, the voice acting in this show was pretty good. All the voices match the characters, and the sound effects are close to my kinda ASMR. The squishy-type sounds, the fluff sounds, and the characters eating all sound very nice. Something I could turn on and just listen to while I draw.
4. CHARACTER: 7/10
If I'm being honest, I really like the characters in this show. Sure, they're pretty generic: the ruler, the flustered love-interest/simp, the stoic leader-type character, the lady-man, the scary-looking dude who's actually super nice, the type that tends to cry over EVERYTHING, the shota, and the fangirl.
So, yeah, the characters themselves aren't ALL that interesting. However, in my opinion, that's what makes them so likable. You can always be sure what kinda episode you're gonna be watching when you see who'll be featured in the episode, and it makes it easier to pick a favorite because they're all pretty plain. Into husbando-material Esque boys that look like they came from Ouran? BOOM, there's a guy for that. Like the generic kawaii girl who has quite a bit of fanservice? You'll love Beelzebub.
Overall, the characters aren't super deep, and they don't really go through any development, but I still like them.
5. ENJOYMENT: 8/10
I know anime that are pure fluff with a dash of fanservice isn't everybody's cup of tea, but personally, I quite enjoyed this anime. It's fun to rewatch when you're bored, and it makes you want to live in Hell. ( You'll understand after you watch it. ) Both my sister and I quite like this anime, and we both agree Beelzebub is an adorable main character. There isn't much else to say for this part... There's just this sort of charm the anime has to it that's hard to put into words.
6. OVERALL: 7/10
Overall, I really like this series. Yes, it's nothing special, it's pretty short, and some of the fanservice feels out of place, but that doesn't really bother me. I quite like the concept of demons that look cuter than they should, which is probably why I like this series so much. Like I stated above, it's kinda hard to put into words what's so charming about this anime, it just IS.
That pretty much sums up this review. I hope it was a nice read and that I helped someone =D

Okay! Let's get into this. Here is my no spoiler review for the anime: Yu-Gi-Oh! DM. This was the first anime I ever watched, and I have a lot of mixed feelings about this series lol. Anyway, let's get into it!
First off, let's talk about the story/plot line. In my opinion, the story is very well thought, and fleshed out. Having its very own lore tied to it and even having its own spin on pre-existing religions. Despite all the filler, it was very enjoyable to watch from start to finish, and always left me wanting more. However, the ending is still amazing, and felt
...
like a nice way to wrap up the story.
Going back to the filler, while some people may complain, and while I'm not always a fan of filler myself, I actually think that these unnecessary arcs do actually add something to the end, and make it feel like more of an even epic journey. You get to imagine all the random misadventures that the main characters went on and adds much more to their character development in my opinion.
Now back to the story, the way it progressed felt nice and perfectly paced to me, as they don't completely rush into things and actually take time to world build and introduce you to all of the magic that will lead a big role in the story later. One thing I don't like very much is that a lot of the time the story heavily relies on you just 'going with the flow', and there's a few questions that don't actually ever get answered and there are quite a few moments that make you say 'WFT'? However this isn't really an issue for me, but it might be a deal breaker for someone else.
Overall, the story in my opinion is pretty remarkable, everything from the random plot twists to the way the story progressed, I am truly a fan of the story.
Next is the art and animation. Given the time this came out, of course the animation isn't gonna be perfect. As it is a lot of still frames with fancy dramatic backgrounds and a lot of looping. Some of the attacks the monsters do do look pretty cool though. One thing I'm not a fan of is the lip syncing, or lack there of. I know that a lot of anime follow the same formula, using two or three frames and just looping them when characters talk. But in YuGiOh it sometimes takes away from an otherwise epic scene if a character's mouth is barely moving yet they're supposed to be intimidating. However sometimes the animation does look very smooth and amazing, so it's all up to matter of opinion, which is why I give it a 6/10 in terms of art and animation.
Ok, now onto sound. I'm pretty sure by this they mean voice acting, music, and sound effects, so that's what this paragraph is gonna be about (sorry if I'm mistaken).
Excluding the infamous 4Kids dub (even though there were a few voices I liked better than their original Japanese counterpart), the voice acting is pretty good. like in all anime, there are parts I think they could have showed more emotion through what they were saying, which is something I think YuGiOh anime especially struggles with.
The music, is no doubt (in my opinion) epic. They always put the right music in at the right times and the openings and endings are also pretty cool. I personally am a huge fan of anime openings, and rarely ever skip them, especially ones from the YuGiOh franchise.
Lastly for this segment is the sound effects. I honestly think they're pretty great, and often fit in perfectly with the scene. They're never too loud, or too quiet, and they use the perfect ones for each situation. I personally have no problem with the sound effects.
Now for my favorite part of every single show, the characters! In my opinion, the main cast of characters (or the ones who play the biggest roles in the show) are all unique and interesting and fun in their own way. I always have a hard time picking my favorite character whenever I re-watch the show. And this is because they all have likable and annoying parts about them. No character in my opinion is completely one-sided, and (even the filler arc villains) everyone has believable reasons and intent behind the good and bad decisions.
One thing I will say is that for some of the characters, their development was little to non-existent. A few of them stay the same throughout the entire course of the show, which personally annoys me in the back of my head. However, take the main protagonist: Yuugi Muto, at the beginning of the show, he is a go-lucky, happy, and naive high-school student who loved to play games and was too shy to confront bullies. But, by the end of the show, you can really see how much he matured and developed as a character, and now accepts the major changes he must go through in order for the story to come to a close.
Besides all the negative things I said, I am really a fan of the characters in this show, they all feel believable and you can sympathize with most of them. 8/10 for me.
Time to nearly wrap things up: the enjoyment of the show. I personally enjoy this show as much or maybe even more than I did when I first watched it when I was around eight years old. I personally love the story because of all the little details that make up the universe of YuGiOh, and I always enjoy re-watching this show from time to time whenever I need something to watch.
Overall, I really do enjoy this show. I do understand the complaints people have about it, and why haters hate it, but if you could, take into consideration all the pros and cons I listed, you may enjoy the anime as much as I did/still do.
I hope you have a great day and enjoy this show... if anyone is even reading this/actually is interested in this anime anymore, but regardless, yep, I guess that's it. Bye.
Overall: 8/10. Good job YuGiOh Dm. You stole my heart xD

Hello! So, this is my first time writing a review ever... like... ever, so please don't judge me if I sound really unprofessional, however, there's a first for everything, right? Anyway, enough stalling, let's get into the review for the manga... +Anima!
Also, one thing I'd like to let you know before you read this review, this will contain NO spoilers, so you can feel free to read this if you want a spoiler-free review.
Another thing, this manga is pretty old, and I don't know if anyone is really interested in this manga anymore, but I was bored and I wanted something to do regarding writing
...
lol. Anyway, enough stalling...
First, let's talk about the story. In my opinion, the story for +Anima was pretty unique and refreshing. I do think it was pretty basic, and perhaps could have been fleshed out a little bit more, however, the almost slice of life feeling the story has about actually makes for a very enjoyable story throughout. So, no matter the adventure (or misadventure), I was always having fun reading this manga.
Second of all is the art, now, I myself am and artist, so stories will amazing artwork will often catch my eye, and I personally love the art style of this series. It just feels nice and the +Animas' animal characteristics really fit and feel like they actually belong on the characters. I also find it comedic that a lot of the boy characters kinda look like girls, however that's pretty common in anime/manga.
Next is the characters and their development. And honestly, I do really like the main cast of characters, they're all unique and different and they all have little quirks about them that make them more enjoyable to read about. However, I do think that a lot of the characters didn't really go through any major development throughout the story, they all kind of stayed the same and their personalities barely matured. However, for some reason I don't think that's really a bad thing in their cases, as they're all enjoyable on their own.
Third of all is the overall enjoyment of the manga. Honestly there were parts where I wasn't having the most fun following Cooro and his group of quirky +Anima friends, but for the most part I had a great time no matter what random sub-plot they got roped into. I personally really enjoyed reading all 10 +Anima manga.
Overall, in my opinion, this was a refreshing, fun, and entertaining story to read, and I think you will enjoy it as well, as long as you consider the pros and cons I listed above. But otherwise, thank you for reading all the way through my first ever anime review, and hopefully enjoy reading +Anima.
