Mixed Feelings
I only watched this Anime to see where Kyoto Animation were dumping their money. This anime is just average. You could be watching better shows but it isn't offensively bad.

Story is like not even there, just "Monster of The Week" type of deal. Then the last 2 episodes it realizes it needs to do something so it crams something in with the climax only being alluded to early on by a literal plot device.

But "Monster of The Week" isn't a bad formula as long as the characters are enjoyable to watch. The characters in the show just come off as watchable, they're not really special, they're not tiring to watch. They're just "Eh". Except for 1 character, Ruru who is god damn ANNOYING - She is like an alternative to acid for my eyes and ears. I didn't really care for any of them and they want us to care for them but it's all just poorly executed and developed. Whatever hi jinx they got up to was just watchable.

Art is what kept me going on to finish the anime. It's eye candy, nice to see.

Music is just... I'm struggling to even remember a song from this series and I just finished this series 6 hours ago as of what I'm writing right now.

I figured out what makes this anime really come off as weak and that is with its characters. They're so bland and "eh." The shenanigans they get up to are nothing special but they're fun without doubt. I'd say in the funny skits/situations Myriad's characters get into and if you were to replace the them with another set of characters from another slice of life/comedy anime then it would be 100 times more enjoyable. Take for instance the limbo scene in episode 1, it was an fun skit but imagine if they were replaced by K-ON!'s characters or Clannad's characters or even Amagi Brilliant Park's characters. The chemistry between Myriad's characters is just lacking.


Overall, this anime is just wasted potential, wasted money. But it is not offensively bad. It was a (word better than ok but worse than nice) anime to watch.



TL;DR - It's basically Chuunibyou S2 except has NOTHING redeeming in it.
