Mixed Feelings
TL;DR
While watching this I had such a strong feeling of deja vu I had to make sure I hadn't already seen it 3 times. In the end it was because of bad writing.

Story: 5
Raise your hands if you have heard this one before. An OP protagonist who is looked down upon joins a class in a battle school where people have mystic powers and fight giant CG monsters. But this time he is the teacher. Isn't that a twist! There was one interesting point to the plot where people who die with this power are forgotten. It could have been a really cool addition to the rest of the cliche story. Instead they use it as a small plot point in one of the girls story. Then it might as well have died itself, with how they forgot about it.

Art: 5
Part of me wants to rate this part a 4. All I look for in these shows are cool looking fight scenes. This show doesn't even deliver that. But it is still a 5 because the art is thoroughly average. The CG is bad, but that is to be expected.

Sound: 4
I hate the backing soundtrack, and the OP and closing are easy to skip. The rest is pretty normal. The seiyu sound just like you expect them to.

Character: 5
All the characters are one dimensional. They are likable due to the familiarity cliches bring me. But they do nothing themselves to make me like them. To someone who hasn't watched much anime I am sure they would find a few of the characters endearing.

Enjoyment: 1
I did not enjoy this anime in the slightest. On an objective level, this show is not as bad as many of the other reviews make it sound. It is average, a copy of other shows that really are not that much better than it. Many of the reviews I have read rate it low because it is exactly like others of this genre. But that just makes it average, not bad. Like I said previously, when I watch these shows all I want are cool fight scenes and easy romance. This show does neither.

Overall:5
There is no net gain or loss from this show. It is the same show you have seen plenty of times. Neither bad nor good. The more anime you watch, the more these types of shows will make you angry, but if you are at a stage in life where you are fine with mediocrity you can watch this and won't be disappointed.
