Nice blend of 3DCG and 2D animation. Stylistically it felt inconsistent, although I use that negatively loaded word because I wish it had been more uniform. The apartment blocks had a retro cg/ps2 game feel to them, which felt weird when combined with the modern day lighting effects. One scene was clearly inspired heavily by Zdzislaw Beksinski and the whole thing had traces of silent hill if I am to mention any that I could name. The monsters still felt uninspired and generic somehow. One thing I liked was having actual darkness in one scene not allowing the viewer to see more than a few meters ahead of the camera, which I don't think I've ever seen in anime before, even supposed 'horror' anime.

This follows Kaiju infested Japan and only a Defense Force has the means to defeat the monsters. First off, this was a blast to get through, as this has likeable characters, good fights, a catchy OP song and funny comedy. There are still unanswered questions lingering but hopefully the next season fills in the blanks.

S2 continues S1 events, however, story strength is a bit weaker due to personal bias about kingdom building/development.
This season has much of silly humor that often doesn't compliment seriousness on how certain situations develop but still a decent watch.
Helemar [F] recommended Tensei Kizoku, Kantei Skill de Nariagaru Tensei Kizoku, Kantei Skill de Nariagaru
I was pretty skeptical going into this series. There have been a number of series which follow this same format, but the deviation here is that the MC isn't some OP character. He has a skill which he needs to use to become stronger through his ties. That's actually more appealing to me than the general, "I was born with super OP stats and everything is easy for me."

All that said, this series had a pretty decent variety of (slight) romance, some sadness, humor, and some absolutely endearing moments.

It's not perfect, but it is definitely above average on the isekai front.

Give it a go, I doubt you'll regret it.
sammy321 [F] for fans Re:Monster Re:Monster
Talk about wasted potential! This series was very similar to That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime in the sense of evolving, absorbing abilities of those defeated to get stronger and gaining allies. The first few episodes had a must watch vibe to them with exploration, training and leveling up; however that quickly lost steam since this anime didn't have a purpose except "defeat the enemy of the week" tone. Besides the aimless plot, the day transitions throughout the show were frequent and annoying. In the end, this had a great start but got progressively worse as the series went through. For fans of harem with elements of OP characters and fantasy atrributes.
squilcon [F] recommended NieR:Automata Ver1.1a NieR:Automata Ver1.1a
Coming from someone who played the game, I'm not sure I'd recommend this anime to someone who didn't. The anime is still really good and almost identical to the game. The music, artwork, story are the same as in the game minus some minor changes. Those 12 episodes are basically the first and second playthrough of the game which are seen by 2B and then 9S. I'm expecting the next season to finish the story which would be the "third" playthrough.

With that said, I enjoyed this anime but in my opinion, the game had something else that made it better. Despite that, the best is yet to come if the story continues to be exactly like the game. So I'm looking forward to the next season.

They finally gave it 25 eps that S1 needed so there was more content but as a result it ended up feeling drawn out in places, specially the end, and speaking of the end, it wasn't very good or satisfactory, he was too OP and the bad guys motivation was ... uninteresting/lacking.
This is similar in many ways to That time I got reincarnated as a slime, but not as good, except in one area: they took that over-used, god-awful bad cooking trope and actually made it make sense and Mio even learned how to cook and quite well at that... this has never been done in more than 1000 anime that I watched, so it deserves an award just for that.

Really nice balance between humor and vicious fights. The MC is truly enjoyable and becomes a beloved character. There's quite a lot of surprises as the series goes on, with a nice mix of different types of characters.

Can't wait for season 2, hope they can do it justice.

sammy321 [F] recommended Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf o Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii? Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf o Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii?
This takes place where sorcerers and knights are bitter enemies and the MC is a powerful sorcerer who purchases an elf and over time both of them develop feelings for each other. In the beginning, a fair amount of events happen but the pacing slows down towards the middle. I wouldn't classify this as a romance series as not much happens on this front. Overall, there is no main narrative/plot; however this is a decent series that has magic and fantasy elements.

Typical empty filler to fill the empty time between the story-TVs. Only for maximum fans of such things.
supertako [F] recommended Migi to Dali Migi to Dali
This anime is weird, in a good way. Especially near the beginning, the comedy style is basically for the characters to do something ridiculous and over the top, but play it completely seriously. With that on top of a fairly dark mystery plot, gives this a unique flavor I haven't seen before. If you've watched a lot of anime and think you've seen everything, give this a try. You may not like it but it's certainly interesting
07.07.2024 Helemar [F] recommended Kimetsu no Yaiba: Hashira Geiko Hen Kimetsu no Yaiba: Hashira Geiko Hen
For those of you who have been following the series, this is a nice addition. As it sounds, this is a season wholly focused on training and making people stronger.

Very little combatt in comparison to previous seasons, but by no means boring.

I'll be eagerly looking forward to (what should be) the conclusionary season.

Rokudaime-Hokage [F] must see Horimiya: Piece Horimiya: Piece
Faithfully adapts several chapters from the already fantastic manga. As a fan, to me this is perfection. Best and most enjoyable romcom ever.
wayfinder [F] recommended Long Zu Long Zu
It's a Chinese anime, these tend to start slow and explain or develop things towards the end. It's just how they write series, this time it's more annoying because the books are dark and they tried to push for more comedy. The novel is very good and the anime only compliments it with amazing animation, soundtrack and supporting cast.

Season 1 covers volume one of 4 or 6 depending on release. Stay away from this for a couple of years to make sure it's moving, there are multiple upcoming projects for this franchise and it's likely story releases will stall again as in ~2015 when the original series was discontinued (and quality dropped).

Straight FIRE!!!

Not a SINGLE moment wasted. Incredibly REDEEMING after such a tumultuous first half!

The second half, centers on FAMILY, and LOTS of character development.
For those of you who were starting to lose FAITH in this series, I can EASILY say, this has been some of the best story telling so far!

FERVENTLY awaiting Season 3!! It couldn't be here soon enough.

Isekai! The genre with MANY and I mean, MANY iterations!

Quite the different and REFRESHING take this time around. The MC is NOT OP, matter-of-fact, hes just a normal person. Well, besides the fact, that he has THE MOST OVERPOWERED skill for his new station in life!

The ability to see peoples aptitudes, and lead them in the right direction! A very SATISFYING and simple premise, yet, VERY effective.

Came into it with little expectations, left thoroughly surprised and fulfilled!

With a second season on the way, its a Simple decision. Just watch it.

Have you ever wanted to see HOW RIDICULOUSLY WELL you could animate a MAGIC BATTLE? IF you answered "Yes". Then PLEASE DO NOT MISS THIS ONE!!

Long, have I awaited for a series that can TRULY animate INSANE feats of MAGIC! This one has bested ALL of my expectations! Its simply glorious!

The plot? Well, I'm not going to say its going to blow your socks off, but it is decent.

Yes, it CAN be extremely silly, and has a tendency of disturbing the impact and pacing of episodes at times. (For some weird reason, they have a meme of a segment that happens randomly throughout the show, and THAT can turn off some people. Then again, you can always skip ahead.)

Its gonna sound funny when I say it but, WOW, they managed to make an OP Mage Shota, into quite the BAD ASS actually.

The strengths outweigh the weaknesses. If anything, if you are a FAN of MAGIC BATTLES don't miss out on this one. Yes, Despite the memes, its THAT GOOD!
must see Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu Dai Ni Maku Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu Dai Ni Maku
As Moon"Lit" of a Sequel as you can ask for!

Admittedly it had a SLOW start, and had the introduction of MANY characters. Even though it slogs at times, the first half is necessary to properly set up the second half!

The second half of this season is NON-STOP animation GOODNESS. The animation team did NOT have any chill towards the end of this series. It literally MAKES UP for such a slow start! So much so, that you kind of forgive it for it. ITS THAT GOOD!

With a season three on the way, what more could you ask for!?

You follow the story of Tank who created his party. I would say that anime is below average. You have to really like RPG elements in anime to watch it.

For each new season a few new characters get introduced but the tone and comedy remains the same and that holds true for this season. At this point, you know what you're getting into and this is more of the same. If you're looking for some laughs this season will have you covered.
SilverOrlov [F] must see Undead Unluck Undead Unluck
Advice to everyone who started watching this: if you don’t like the stupid absurdity of the first and second episodes... just watch further. The general intensity of madness remains, in general, but the whole concept of the series becomes more serious. Much more serious. In fact, I'm very happy to watch this series because it showed a very interesting idea of what everything is happening here for. It's really worth it. 8/10.

I really enjoy this type of series, where the MC starts from zero and gradually becomes stronger via their efforts.

It is, by no means bad. There's a market for this. I still think this is a great series. Don't discount it.
JoeGP [F] recommended Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf o Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii? Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf o Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii?
I rated this and Kon'yakuhaki the same (6/10), while this is better than Kon'yakuhaki in some ways, in others it's worse, they tried to be a little more serious I guess ? yet they threated serious issues like kidnapping, attempted murder, patricide improperly, with the ol' enemies-becoming-friends routine, well half-improperly since at least 1 bad guy was actually killed so that's a plus.
Also I can't say I liked the subplot, I think I would have preferred no subplot or a political one to this.
I'll watch the next season, but I won't be reading the source material.
sammy321 [F] recommended Dosanko Gal wa Namara Menkoi Dosanko Gal wa Namara Menkoi
This is a low stress romance series that follows the MC who moves to a small town and makes female friends that overtime have feelings for him. The female characters are likeable, but the MC is bland; although the overall romance is easy-going despite a lot of stereotypes. Initially the ending took a different angle which I thought was cool b/c it was different then all the other romance series... only for a big "just kidding" which was disappointing. Overall, this is a self-contained romance series that doesn't need another season, it's good where this ended.
03.07.2024 bnns [F] recommended Dungeon Meshi Dungeon Meshi
This series centers around a plot that forces the main character and his party to rush through the dungeon, without the proper preparations forcing them to make do with what is around them, using the creatures and everything in the dungeon for nourishment. The focus on this series is the food, having it emphasized throughout each and every episode, they do a brilliant job in portraying as colorful delicious and tasty, which bring it close the beauty and ingenuity portrayed in other anime who's focus is almost only on food.

The story progression of this anime, is done quite well never quite feeling bored always surprised by a turn of events, groups meeting up with the main character never slow down the pace of the story each episode having it's own challenge to be dealt with, but with little to no angst. I greatly enjoyed this story and it's pacing. Hope the next season doesn't disappoint.
recommended Mashle: Shinkakusha Kouho Senbatsu Shiken Hen Mashle: Shinkakusha Kouho Senbatsu Shiken Hen
Interesting progression, this season focused heavily on the revelation of our protagonists, limitation and crime. It revolves around him fighting to the top for his life. Lots of action sequences, there is little character or story development replaced almost entirely by the action. Aspects of this series I found funny and was looking forward to didn't quite carry over to the second season which overall I found lackluster and disappointing.
recommended Sugar Apple Fairy Tale (2023) Sugar Apple Fairy Tale (2023)
The second season completes our tale, we understand the feelings of the main characters and the tribulations they've faced together. They have tied their destinies to one another, but the path to that point was rife with challenge and risk. This series is a very gentle romance where the characters learn to trust one another, there is a strong sense of purity and innocence with how each behaves to the other, where even the depravity lacking a real sense of terror.

I don't expect much more to occur with regards to the romantic relationship of the character although the world and the setting they live is no better for them but maybe subsequent seasons may deal with that.
Ezeuz [F] for fans Boukyaku Battery (2024) Boukyaku Battery (2024)
Fun and a bit unique sport series. A bit of comedy, seriousness, drama, and excitement -- everything is just a sprinkle.

The strength lies in its production quality, but plot-wise it can be often disappointing because of the main plot device. The amnesiac MC can be very lame to some.

Pretty middle of the road. The first episode will make you think of SAO, but then it veers off in a completely different direction. Basically isekai with overpowered MC and hugely under explained plot points. Amusing watch, but nothing too amazing here.
MrJimo [F] for fans The New Gate The New Gate
If you enjoy anime with RPG elements, this title should be a good fit. It features a typical overpowered main character who conceals his strength.
But if you are not a fan of this type of anime, I would recommend staying away, as the anime is average.
I enjoyed the series because I am a big fan of that type of anime.

This was an entertaining watch as this follows the MC that gets reincarnated into a family that rules over a small territory and who has the ability to assess people's abilities and traits. For the most part, S1 is a setup for the next season as the MC is building up his family with exceptional talent for an upcoming war that I'm assuming will happen in the next season. The characters were enjoyable however the pacing can be slow at times but nothing that ruins the viewing experience. In the end, this was an entertaining watch and I'm looking forward to the next season.
wackira [F] recommended Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! 3 Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! 3
the first two seasons started off stupid, funny, and had some ecchi. it was enjoyable, though i'm not a huge fan of ecchi; but season 3 was really really good.

it was much funnier, doubling down on all the antics and tropes that made the previous seasons (and movie) good, but all done way better. while the ecchi was there, it became more of a trope and i found it much more tolerable

but what really made this season so good was how it tied a lot of loose ends together from previous arcs in a very sensible way; and the ending was extremely satisfying. at the end of the day it's a story about friendship and it's so so so wholesome. highly recommend!

It was a good show, average, but deserving a place in hearts of many, including mine, if not for episode 12. Sorry, this ruined everything for me.

On paper this anime had the making to be an interesting isekai series with fantasy elements, reincarnation into royalty and interesting fights. However, the execution made this a chore to get through at times; the childish approach diluted this anime. Not to mention the MC's familiar (Grim) always complained and yelled in a high pitch voice and the anime studio had this obsession to get these provocative shots of the MC throughout the show. This is a bummer because the animation and some of the fights were impressive only to get taken out of that with one the issues previously mentioned. In the end, this isekai concept was interesting, just wasn't executed well.
triper [F] must see Kaijuu 8 Gou Kaijuu 8 Gou
This is made by Production I.G. and that's enough to tell you that there is quality here, but, even if that part is ignored, this is really good.

Good story, good development with a decent number of twists (knowing the story after watching an episode or two is lame), tons of good old action. It's something really well made that I personally haven't seen in years.

If you enjoy anime with a ton of good action and story development, this is a must see.

To the ones comparing this to X: if you want more of X, go watch X. Nothing is new, everything is created based, and also inspired, on something else.
