That this anime is tagged with romance is insulting to all the other great romance anime out there. The first episode began with a lot of promise, but after that promising start, the romance withered and died on the vine. If the two main characters had any chemistry to start with it quickly dried up, a casualty of this rushed adaption.
Speaking of rushed adaption the main story has been given no room to breathe and characters no chance to be developed. I honestly wonder why the studio even bothered to adapt this story if they were only going to botch it this badly.
Furthermore, the

I can't dispute the fact that this looks great, fantastic even. The background is almost a character in and of itself in how detailed it is and even the background characters are well-drawn.
The opening and ending themes are real bangers you can bop to as well. Unfortunately, the plot is not doing it for me. The main character Arajin is so cringe at how he interacts with Senya. He talks, no yells, at him in public and people are like huh? I get it's done for laughs, but I hate the trope. Because of this the jokes are kind of falling flat. But my biggest problem is ...

MC exists and hot girls throw themselves at him. That would be a more accurate title.
The writing, to put it succinctly, is godawful. The story begins with a fish out of water premise. The main character, Tsubasa moves to Hokkaido from Tokyo because his dad has moved for work reasons. The first person he meets when he arrives is Minami whose sum total of her personality is that she is a gyaru. It is painfully obvious that the MC is self-insert character as he doesn't seem to have much of a personality, let alone any interests and hobbies. As far as I can tell the ...

So from what I've heard, the source material for this anime is an ecchi and if Studio Passione had stayed true to the source material it would have elevated this anime into the realms of guilty pleasure and out of the ho-hum doldrums we find ourselves in.
Unfortunately, that is not the case and what we are left with is a hot mess that tries to be too many things at once and falls short of all of them. We have the reincarnated demon lord stuck in the body of a ten-year-old, this makes some people uncomfortable but it's a bit of a nothing burger "thanks" to ...

What a failure of a show this was. After watching Immoral Guild and KamiKatsu I was really looking forward to a bit of guilty pleasure ecchi so you shouldn't have trouble imagining how disappointed I was when we got served up whatever slop this was.
This was supposed to be ecchi, but it was so lame that a normal anime heavy on the fan service would have been more titillating. The girls looked okay but were let down by the animation (except for the stills in the ED), and their personalities were flatter than the paper they were drawn on. As for the comedy, entire episodes would ...

It is really bad and I've had enough, I don't know why I stuck with this to the end. Maybe it's the same mentality that draws your eye to a bad car wreck or watching a train derail in slow motion.
The one positive thing about this anime was the character designs, but everything else was trash. The animation was subpar and the music was ok, but nothing eye-opening. Probably the worst thing is the plot which is so patchwork and messy you'd be forgiven thinking it was created by chatgpt raised on the worst the isekai genre has to offer. If a plot point wasn't resolved ...

Ok, so five episodes in and I've decided to drop it, why? Because it follows the Peach Boy Riverside formula of airing the episodes out of order. Something that I personally find quite annoying.
If it wasn't for the broadcast order this would be a perfectly fine addition to the genre of Cute Girls Doing Cute Things. The music and animation are great and the Japanese VA cast is certainly stacked with a lot of popular VAs so there are no complaints in that department. The plot is also good enough to carry the anime, however by the end of episode three, the anime is done. ...

Arknights: Reimei Zensou

add
I am someone who has never played Arknights and never even heard of Arknights before this season. I've given this 3 episodes and to be honest I have found Arknights to be a very average anime.
The animation is ok, but the unsaturated palette and the fact that Reunion has a budget to give their grunts a uniform is very telling about how cheap it really is. But they do take the time to make most of the characters look unique so there is that. The OST is very average too. Not terrible, but it doesn't grab your attention either. In a season of banger OPs this ... |
