I love the holistic belief that magic, psychic powers, and magical girl powers, are all existing simultaneously. Some have speculated that they're more or less the same energy, and simply called upon different ways. Psychic powers are encoded into your DNA. Some anime portray this as genetic inherited abilities like in Naruto. Other anime will explore learning new abilities by training chakra or qi. Some abilities are unlocked by performing a ritual or witchcraft, which may require a vessel, possession, sacrifice, scroll, grimoire, arcane circle, rune, or some other way to embed the "code" of magic into a physical form.

executing a program. There are tons of ways video games and anime have demonstrated magic and psychic abilities, so it's about damn time we see them all clash against each other in one universe.
All that being said, all the characters are brimming with amusing personalities, and nobody feels lazily written. Sasaki especially goes from cunning and plotting, to soft-hearted male moe. This isn't your typical "generic design overpowered idiot MC with a generic harem, that has no idea what he is doing" isekai. This isn't your usual "cute heroic magical girls" anime for a young audience. This has many plot points and it does them differently. An opportunity for a fight is an opportunity for Talk no Jutsu. Sure, Pii-chan could probably one shot any foe, but Sasaki would rather get along with his enemies, and make them allies. I have no real complaints about this anime at all. The bad reviews are just people with lousy taste, and likely haven't even finished the show.
(Hype for Season 2!)
