Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (7/12 eps)
The anime starts strong but quickly fizzles into a forgettable addition to the season. The main protagonist's journey, which is central to the source material, takes a backseat to showcasing the jealousy of other characters. This detracts from the main plot and introduces a cast of annoying personalities that could have been streamlined.

The protagonist herself comes across as lacking in social graces, despite not being portrayed as anti-social or introverted. This disconnect between her personality and actions creates a frustrating viewing experience. Overall, Akuyaku Reijo feels like a missed opportunity. With a tighter narrative and a focus on the main character's growth, this could have been a standout series. Unfortunately, it falls short and becomes another forgettable entry in the season's lineup.

I haven't read the LN as of writing this, so I'm not sure whether this is a failed adaptation or not. overall I would say giving this anime above 6 would've been a waste, of course, it's just my opinion based on what I've watched so far. I might change my review soon or in the worst-case scenario, I don't.
