First of all, I must say I am not a harem anime person by all means, I always disliked harem anime because there is no real plot, like real plot for me to see. It is always girls trying battle each other to see who is more kawaii. Monster Musume fits that category. So why the heck did I like it IOAOAEOAEOAWEOAWO ? ????????????

Story: 8/10
Monster Musume is about monster girls' everyday life with our lucky protagonist. Due to the new law reinforcement, where monster girls come to the human society as an home stay exchange student, to gain a better understanding of each other's culture. ... Not much real plotline, but hey incorporate interesting facts about animals(like snake shedding) and fit the characters into simple plain character traits we all see today. The protagonist got a bunch of very radical looking monster girls(not those that only have a flurry tail at the back) into his house, due to various reasons. I do not think that there is much comedy involved as many people implied(There are so much more funnier comedy Animes out there), I think this is more of a slice of life Anime.

Art: 10/10
What can say, the art style fits my um, taste very well, >.> I watched the entire anime standing up! Great exercise Anime! HAHAHAHAHAHA...no. ALSO WATCH DA UNCENSORED VERSION, THRUST ME, I MEAN TRUST ME :D.

Sound: 10/10
Just the regular happy OST you find at every comedic and slice of life anime. Nothing much to say. But why 10/10 you ask. I mean, the voice acting :3

Character: 8/10
Many flat characters, without much development. Trust me it does not matter too much in this type of anime, the author did wisely use the different animal traits of the female casts, some are not really that interesting and some does not even make sense, but hey, it is monster girls :3

Enjoyment: 10/10
Fuck yeah!(Literally)

Overall: 10/10
Monster Musume is gotta be one my all time favorite Anime, not sure why, I've been reading the manga, I'd have to say some shit just do not make sense, but the Anime itself gets a full marks from me, perhaps it is due to the plucky attempt by the author to draw something so radical from the usually harem anime that we often see and neglect. I've always liked demi-human characters, like Holo ze wize wolf, she is so cute and demanding, but dude, her fluffy tail is amazing =w=. I would say that I've discovered a fetish that I never have known I have had, makes me think about life. Last time I thought I just like the idea, now I know it makes me rock solid. I honest do not know how to feel about this anime. But it brings me wonderful memories as I think back when writing this review on a wimp, some parts of this review might be unclear as it have been about 6 months since I watched the Anime. And Rachnera best girl.

This Anime healed my soul

Story: 9/10 About a girl who went to a water filled Mars to become an undine. A slice of life series, the pacing is rather slow as compared to modern Animes. But hey, sometimes you just have to take it slow and chillax. Just let the Anime teach how to appreciate all the little things in life.

Art: 10/10 Art is amazing, this Anime is made way back in 2005, you cannot expect the same level of standard as of today, but the environment, characters and cats are welly drawn and comfortable to look at. Landmarks are distinguishing, a very warm ... style of art I would say. Feels cozy as I think back.

Sound: 10/10 The sound is astonishing. It suits the atmosphere of the Anime perfectly. 1 thing they did very well is to have a different opening scene every episode, so I pretty much listened to "Undine" (opening of anime) 12 times, the song sorta grew on me. Ending(Rainbow) gives off a very cozy feeling, lyrics fits the Anime really well. The OST in the Anime is marvelous as well, all of them give you a calming feeling, like lullaby. Brings wonders to my ears, they are also superb for studying or when writing a Aria review!

Character: 9/10 I do not believe a character has to change to be a good character, in the series there are little character development, however, all the character are distinct from one another and are unique in their own rights. Most importantly, they are lovable. They pretty much remain the same throughout the series, but learning the backstory of some of the characters intrigues me.

Enjoyment: 10/10 Did not finish the whole Anime in one sitting like I usually do. Took me a few days, but everyday I find myself wanting to watch 1 or 2 episodes of Aria, the Anime does not bomb rush you with plot, each episode tells a different excellent story, there is no cliffhanger, perhaps that is why I could not finish the Anime in 1 sitting. But unique idea, the characters, the music and the cats gave me a blast. This Anime is certainly one of the kind. An Anime that tells you simple, warm stories. I would not say that the Anime is deep, anyone can pretty much understand what is going on with just one watch. But the simplicity fits the Anime very well, I mean, it is to take us through all the little things in life.

Overall: 9/10 I would say the Anime has outdone itself, I always disliked slow pacing Anime, but miraculously I finished this Anime, I do not think I will watch the sequel due to how long an episode is but I will definitely finish the Manga, which the Anime is based on. However, I would recommend this Anime to anyone, if you like watching Anime as compared to reading the Manga, please do check out the sequel, as I heard they are tear-jerking! However, the Anime got an 9 from me, is because the Orange Planet's cat looks weird. I like cute cats that are nice to other cats.

I finished this in a few days, it was quite a good read I must say.

Story
An supersonic octopus became the teacher for Class E, the worst class in a prestigious junior high school. The story is surprisingly fluent, there is little boring moments in the manga, like say in 1 chapter the teacher say he is going to prepare the students in their exam, the next chapter the exam is already finished. Unlike some manga where the fillers comes in and frustrate the heck out of the readers. The manga also take an insight in education with assassionation, how teachers can affect or influence his/her ... students, I have to say after reading this manga, I actually wants to be an educator in the future, really inspiring, kuro sensei(I read this manga in chinese, hope the name is correct) really deliver a valuable lessons even to the readers!

Art
Art is okay overall, some parts do look a bit weird but nonetheless, very readable and enjoyable.

Characters
With a class roaster of 28 students, I expected the author to not differentiate most of the characters. Oh boy was I wrong. Yes I do admit that some characters are more focused in terms of character development, but every single character is different from one another, and frankly speaking, in the later chapters I actually remembered their differences.

Enjoyment
Definitely a 10 considering I finished the manga in less than a week.

Overall
10/10 I loved it, would recommend to anyone.

First of all, I want to say that English is not my native language so I may have a lot of grammatical error throughout the review, please bear with me.

This book started off great, really great. The story was interesting, the characters are okay, the realism in this manga is pretty good. It depicts quite well what people do when they are in fear and how desperate they are when encounter death.

Now, the manga do give you goosebumps at many times, it really questions people whether what the characters in the manga are doing is correct or wrong, say if the order was to let ... register number 12 and 13 kill each other, if they do not do so they will both die in the end, would you murder the other guy? Or would you rather die like a dignified person? It is hard to say which is right and wrong, as if you let the other kill you, you save that person, but the same can be said about the other person as we know. There are many implications to a lot of the cases.

It is really is tense when the plot reached its climax where the remaining students struggle to survive, and then it just went bum.

The ending was unsatisfying, feels uncompleted to me, but perhaps this is what the author wants, overall I think the manga adaptation did a great job in portraying the emotions of people, their desperation, sadness etc, and is definitely a worthwhile read, I mean come on, it only has five volume, go read it, be reminded though, you may not like the ending.

This is a masterpiece, not even kidding.
I finished this in 3 days, 208 chapters.
On the surface it just look like an ecchi manga. It is not, it is more about strategy and the plot is real, together with a especially unique comedy that will really make you laugh your ass off, the art style is amazing, everyone is well drawn I cannot really find much error in that. The characters themselves are different from one another as well, it is interesting to see how each character makes decisions that affect the plot as a whole, like Andre becoming crazy etc.
Overall I had a ... blast watching the anime and reading the manga, every single second was enjoyable and holy shit, I am just out of words, I can definitely go on and on about the many funny scenes in the manga but it'll spoil people so just go read it yourself, truly, I was, mindblown by this
