this is my favorite bad anime because it never bothers to pretend like it ever had any potential that was squandered by its execution, no hidden potential that could have been drawn out of it, no vision butchered beyond recognition. its badness is not jarring because it is consistently always bad, so much so that any moment of quality would have ruined the perfect harmony. the pacing is consistently strange but you wont find yourself slacking through it, because every episode is jampacked with fresh nonsense and if proper setup and execution requires any boring downtime whatsoever it has been cut in favor of a smooth ride. like those boat rides in a theme park. there will always be something ridiculous to point out, and you wont be going long between them. the characters are so far removed from acting like real people would that the uncanny valley is a foreign concept to them, which makes their fantastically ridiculous actions seem consistent and sensible. it creates its own beautiful juxtapositions, so instead of its inventive and evocative worldbuilding seeming completely wasted on this run-of-the-mill underage harem magic girl combat school story, it instead serves to highlight the run-of-the-mill underage harem magic girl combat school tropes. sometimes you can just feel the tropes thrown into this beautiful mess of a show, as if they had to find a place for everything on their ingredient list, and so nothing ever feels out of place. this is truly the culmination of everything that is going wrong with anime, nicely wrapped up for you to enjoy.

and it is very enjoyable.
