I am rating this a 6/10.

If you are a horny teenager or love excessive amounts of gore, this is the anime for you. Otherwise, skip it.

The main draws of this anime are action scenes, gore, and waifus. It is primarily a combat anime, with a small dash of interesting characters.

It is undeniable that the production value is high, and it shows in the fight scenes. The combats themselves aren't that interesting, it's mostly hack and slash, and 5 seconds later someone dies.
There is so much blood and deaths on-screen that it quickly loses it's novelty and it becomes hard to care.

The story is about a ... group of demon slayers, with the protagonist having an unique super power, and the good guys are secretly the bad guys! It's not a terrible story, but it's also nothing special.

The characters and their interactions are probably the best part of the show. They are somewhat nuanced in their motives, and their designs are appealing.
However, actual character interactions seem to make a tiny part of the show, which is dominated by fighting and gore, and sluggish scenes that lead nowhere.
There is honestly way too much simping going on for Makima, and for how little screentime she actually gets, i don't think it's worth enduring the show just for the brief moments
While the ecchi is "smarter" than a lot of other shows, they are predominantly towards the start of the series, seemingly as a way to catch viewers, but i don't think the ride is worth it.

It gets me an Evangelion vibe, it has a surreal, dream-like quality, but it's less about fights and horny teenagers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The main premise is frozen time, and that alone is fairly unique and got my interest.
The main antagonist is surprisingly well done, cerebral and morally grey.
Sick Opening.
Abuses cliffhangers.
I noticed the tendency to include 1-2 "comic reliefs" per episode. Which is welcome but it felt almost like a quota, formulaic.
Likeable characters
... It does feel like a manga-to-anime adaptation, because often there is no explanation. Or characters act in uncharacteristic ways and no explanation is given.
Overall, 12 episodes doesn't take that long, and it's much more cerebral than your average Bleach 12 episode fillers.

I watched S2 because S1 gave me high expectations.

OPM is an action anime, and on that side there was a good amount of action. The visuals and graphics are on point.

Story-wise, there was not much to hold my attention. It feels like the story is disconnected from S1. And the MC itself feels disconnected from the main story, even moreso than S1.

A lot of filler episodes, with a tournament fight, and Garo fighting the hero of the day, and that's 90% of episodes.

They should have put in more story arc.

Overall not a terrible anime if one just wants to watch fights and lots of ... deus ex machinas and "anger boosts my power x100" super saiyan scenes. But this anime is known for cheesy fights anyways.

This isn't your usual love harem anime. At first it will make you smile because it's funny and sweet, but through the rest, will make you really angry, but at the same time, i think it's something people should watch, because even though it's terrible, it hits home and will remind you that love is a cruel mistress.

The MC is not a specially bad guy, he's actually a more realistic character than your usual male main character. He's not honor-bound, but acts like a real person. As it happens, he's a young high schooler, even though he tries to do good, he has more spunk ... than maturity.

The characters are shallow, yes, but that's because they're teenagers. Teenagers are shallow because they haven't figured out themselves out yet. The main character is a wimp, selfish, and refuses responsability,...just like many IRL teen boys.

Anyone that has been in a relationship for a long time will tell you, after a while the magic starts fading away, and you take the other for granted, as much as we'd like to pretend that doesn't happen to us, it's how we're wired. That's happens here. The MC cannot resist the temptation, as the best of us sometimes cannot, when the intense excitement of a new female love presents itself to us, which leads to dramatic consequences.

Sure you get to hate the characters, but isn't that proof of good writing? Are all villains poorly written just because they're despicable? That's what the anime producers set to do, and they accomplished that so well.

As the drama unravels itself, as everyone feeling's gets hurts, it shows that being in a relationship is not only about your selfish pleasure, but that it comes with a part of responsibility for the other's feelings.

The art and sound were okay, it was hard to tell apart characters sometimes because no one had crazy hair colors, i guess they were shooting for realism here.

The sounds the characters makes are full of emotion, and either makes you feel sorry for them, or hate them.

The MC is caught having an interest in girls way too young, so his two loving sisters set to correct him with sex with "women of proper age"
It's revealed his two full-breasted sisters loved him since childhood!
One tsundere, another a loving older sister
Their affection is so boundless they would do anything for their little brother
They offer both of their virginities in a threesome, and even take turns cosplaying!
It soon stopped making sense, but i kept watching because it was too funny and enjoyable.
The animation is great, in all aspects it looked like a regular anime. The scenes are dynamic, with wild poses and exagerated movements ... and cumshots (guy came a gallon over the course)

I've seen hentai with better direction than this.

MARS of Destruction refers to a body fighting suit wore by a Shinji Ikari type of guy who doesn't really want to fight but is coerced to because he's the ONLY ONE WHO CAN!!! and Daddy issues and aliens from mars from Japan humans are actually aliens therefore it all makes sense. He doesn't disobey his father past some initial pouting (oh sure dad, let me just go throw away against killer aliens) because that would show he has some kind of personality and isn't just there to further the plot.

The aliens are basically just waiting out ... on the street like trashcans for the heroes come kick their ass.

The fights are anti-climatic and clumsy.
I found it difficult to care about any of the characters. It's a bunch of forgettable faceless dumb-as-rocks aliens against a generic cast of schoolgirls with assault rifles.

I give it about 5 or 6 overall for enjoyment, i recommend it if you like viruses that turn people into monsters, or want to see a refreshingly odd anime featuring incestuous sibling cannibalizing. It's only 30 minutes, that is both a strength and weakness, because there rarely is a lull, and you don't lose much by watching it, but a lot of the story is left out.

The anime actually has a decent start, but only gets more disjointed as time goes on. Characters and plot points are introduced, then forgotten without explanation. Some people may like that, but i found it disappointing when things ... start getting interesting and then a plot line is dropped.

It was touching to see the relationship of the two main character siblings., how they stand up for each other through hardship and trials. Unfortunately, the little sister has not much to say and doesn't seem to think much at all.
I thought it was interesting how by depending on each other, they literally have a symbiotic relationship by the end, by endlessly regenerating his body, he can feed his little sister without her having to kill innocent people!
It sure gets points for originality.

I thought the art was fairly decent, not QUALITY by any means.

Jesus & Buddha come together in this light-hearted comedy full of funny incongruences between what they are taught to be and how they're represented in a more relatable and goofy way. Their characters draw on a rich mythology that everyone is already familiar with, but in a much different, modern setting.

The landowner is a very strict old lady who just wants no shenanigans.
After strange events and miracles occur centered around her new tenants, she grows suspicious that there is something odd about the duo. It's not easy to pass as normal when they've been out of touch with the world for thousand of years.

Threatened ... of eviction, they try to cover it up to the best they can. Just as the landowner is about to evict them, they prove themselves through kindness to not be so bad after all, until the next even stranger event happens. It's a formula that doesn't get old.

The premise was interesting enough to keep me hooked and guessing what'll happen next.
The art was nice to look at and has a nice level of details.

The story is a bit different from the usual. It's a political intrigue centered on a helping a country stuck in a war machine improve it's condition, and not depend on war for it's economy. The show touches on agriculture and economy, so it is a bit educative.

The main characters are not seen often, as they are working behind the scenes. I wish they expanded more on their motivations and history. The way they are referred to by nouns rather by names gives an idea how they are not the main focus.
The two main characters are fairly quirky. The Hero is positively overpowered, but ... doesn't think much of it and only uses his powers when appropriate. The Demon King is the leader of the demons, but contrary to expectations of the in-world characters, is selfless and deeply humanitarian.

The main character duo have a heart-warming chemistry, i wish they had shown more of them together, the light-heartedness is what drawn me in at first but it was pretty lacking in all but the few first episodes as they went their separate ways for errands.
The side-characters felt mostly forgettable. It's part of the narrative style of only touching superficially characters, as the focus is more on the story than the characters.

The art & sound were adequate.

I felt like there was a lack of information in some parts, and superfluous details in other places. So at times it was difficult to follow and stay engaged, especially when the main characters are so rarely seen. To be fair, some things are going to be left out when trying to fit a novel into 12 episodes, and it's a short enough anime to be watched for it's novelty.

It is a short story, but it doesn't skip easing you into the mood. It is realistic enough to not feel disbelief, but girls really aren't that sexual with their brothers irl. The acting was believable and the characters had consistent behaviors. The depiction of pussy is realistic and immersive with no censoring. It's nice for getting horny, my female friend ejaculated to this.
