Mixed Feelings
When I started to watch this, I kind of expected it to be better as I am a reader of the manga, but surprisingly not.
Here's the short summary of the categories-
Story: 7
The story itself is a good thing in itself, has a male (kind of cliche kind, house-husband dude) who meets the short 5 foot 4 tsundere girl who uses a magical bow to kill spirits. Shit goes on from there when he realizes his part-time housekeeping job is with her.
Personally, there wasn't really that much manga for the writers to go off of and thats most likely one of the big reasons this anime only has 10 episodes.
Art: 10
The one thing the anime does extremly well is the art, especially in the lewd outro, which brings me to the second thing which kind of ruined the anime for me.
Censoring. The manga, (watch my true colors show here), had a lot of ecchi situations that gave it humor, and the anime just takes away the pleasure by darkening anything ecchi or gore related, which the anime actually does decently in.
Characters: 6
Theres a loli-type...well actually we dont know what the grandmothers true body actually looks like yet (Spoiler).
Short tsundere heroine that would probably annoy the crap out of you in real life.
Weak kind house-husband main protagonist that has a hidden power that activates when you kiss.
Quiet busty shrine maiden girl whos sister to main heroine.
And a whole lot of side characters who the author is not scared to kill 5 seconds after introducing them.
Yea that sums most of them up, next.
Enjoyment: 3
I personally wanted to be uncensored, as that was one of the perks of the manga, and had a lot more funniness to it...as well as arousement as I personally find the catgirl to be adorable (one of the few good things about this anime). I also noticed that the writers just didnt have enough to go off of and resulted to having only 10 episodes, and I personally think they should have waited a year for more manga to have a full on 24 episode season.
Overall: 6
As stated before, the two main things that killed me were the lack of episodes and the overuse of censoring (this is supposed to be a gorey and perverted anime why make it if your going to censor it). If you are truly interested in this show, I suggest you give reading the manga a try. No bullshit censor and more story.
