Quanzhi Fashi 2nd Season

This is something I put off watching until right before I'm writing this review. I watched all 12 episodes right before now and honestly, I am severely disappointed at this pathetic fall from the first season. Given it's season two I'm going to assume you have watched the first and am going to spare the intro for this review, as I only wright reviews for things I think are either really bad, or really god damn good. This is the former.

Quanzi Fashi 2nd Season, or in English, Full-Time Magister 2nd Season is very clearly a minimal effort cert. It does everything ... wrong. The story covers nothing, its 12 episodes of a single event that is not satisfying and very very boring. The season aims to kill off people with any level of development, or none at all. Nothing seems to have any impact in this season. The story is especially poor when placed next to the first season. Of which I enjoyed immensely and loved just about every moment.

When we look at the art I'm going to say for the most part it is just as good as the first season. Though things are not as defined and with the first episode changing the ending of last season, I'm inclined to say its dropped dramatically for me in comparison, but it is the only nice factor of this as it's different from what most people watch. on the lower end of things but still. far from the worst animation to ever exist. The effects at the very least are fantastic.

Moving on to sound, there isn't anything there. Its boring and I barely noticed it beyond the speech (which was almost as bad or worse in a few spots) could have been so much better.

Character I basically covered but ill go on to say that, there really isn't any development. Nothing is substantial and nothing matters when it comes to the characters. Oh boo hoo some characters died but that wasn't necessary, none of the events here were.

Enjoyment, Ill put it this way, I barely paid any attention after ep 7 and stopped caring all together by ep 10. it was absolutely HORRIBLE...... If this gets another season, which I seriously doubt it will. I expect some god damn redemption for this ... atrocity.....

Overall.. 4.... just because of the Art..... Do not watch.. seriously.... its a waste of time.

Review for Black Clover (TV)

Story: 6
Art: 6
Sound: 4
Character: 5
Enjoyment: 3
Overall: 5

Intro: Alright, So as is obvious this is the anime adaptation for Black Clover, a neat little story about 2 boys rivalling to become the Wizard King, The boys names are Yuno and Asta. Let me start by saying im currently caught up to the Manga and that im considerably biased towards it as it is probably one of my favourites (I mean, I dont tend to read manga I dont enjoy, my mean score is above 8 for Manga lol) So I will likely refference that in this review, Your obviously free to take ... this review any way you please however understand that this is all my OPINION and its meant for people like me, or who want a review from someone who read and enjoys the Manga.


Story: Ill start this review off by saying this score is a 6 for 1 reason and 1 reason only, I know what happens through the mangas story and hope the anime will at least follow closely and not pull a Tokyo Ghoul on us, As far as the first 11 episodes go, its decent at best, Things that have been shown did not need to be, or took up far to much time, to be honest, the entire second episode basically never happened in the Manga, there was no walk no nothing, they cut straight to being at the city, litterally in Chap 2. I found this very displeasing as it not only wasted my time but it also shunned me from enjoying the show as I knew if they were doing filler like that it would not be a good series starting out, So far, that holds true, it doesnt even start to pick up until Epsiodes 10, and even then it barely does so, the pacing they decided to make this series obviously will go on to have a second season, under the stipulation it gets better. which I again hope it will. the story for the animation is not whats keeping me watching, that much must be made clear. so overall, 6/10 with knowledge on the future, fix pacing and will more than likely feel better, dont fill with scenes that never took place. :)

Art: I have art also at a 6, The main reason for that is I just dont enjoy it as much as other shows, its got some nice flair to it but overall it could be done better, The characters and scenery dont look nearly as fluid to me personally as the manga and the magic elements are definetly not what I was hoping for, However as previously mentioned, Ep 10 does make it feel a little better, Maybe not for 1 thing but it doesnt look horrible, so, 6/10 make things more fluid and there would be improvment (Bonus: Its not nearly as bad as DBS has been :D )

Sound: In my original review made around Ep 7 I had sound listed as a 7, Here I have changed it to a 4. for the most part this change was caused by 1 thing. Asta, His voice is neigh unbearable for a large portion of the story, constant screaming constant annyoance etc, this is FAR from what I would have thought whed reading the manga, I never got the impression he was THIS level of loud, basically -3 points for Asta alone. The rest of the sound in the animation, honestly they arent bad, most voices feel fitting to characters, the sounds in the atmosphere feel appropriate and the OP and ED are actually fantastic. Not my favourites but most certainly enjoyable. so 4/10 Remove Asta voice <3

Character: Overall I cant say I even want to give more than 5/10 for characters, they just dont feel right, they are undoubtedly the same characters from the manga, however I dont get the feeling of attachment for their animated versions. I know what happens to all of them and yet knowing that its going to be animated doesnt make it feel great, It just puts worry that they will mess up some crucial parts for characters in the future, It's not that they arent neccisarilly true to the manga its that I dont feel anything for them, not to mention WAY to much focus was put on Asta and Yuno when there is more than just them. The nice part, They kept the first real backstory you see damn near perfect and im so happy for it, For obvious reasons I cant say who but just know its there. All in all 5/10 Please make them feel like they do in Manga senpai !

Enjoyment: Finally, As a certain LOL youtuber would say, the only real catagory that matters, My personal enjoyment, 3/10 Yes, it is a very pitiful score, I am severly dissapointed in this adaptation and I wish they would have scrapped the script, gone over it more and made Asta way less annoying, genuinly find a different voice actor.. seriouslly..

Overall: 5/10 but... why 51 episodes? pick up the pace at least !

Outro: All in all it isnt the worst thing you could watch... there are so many better things but at the very least its not Green Green and for that I commend it.

---_-_-_- [VAGUE SPOILERS AHEAD] -_-_-_---
So, here you have Fighter. An anime with many elements of its genre, not exactly new in any way shape or form. I do not tend to watch anime of this kind, however for the most part I found it quite enjoyable. There was a lot to like, and a lot to dislike about this anime but, as there are so many reviews that go super in depth, I will just share my own personal feelings on this anime.

Story: 7 - Classic fighting style anime, you have a few battles here in there, No real explenation why ... throughout the majority of the anime. Basically its just two sides fighting eachother, However there is no reason given as to why there is fighting until the very end, nor is there a reason given as to why the fighters must be all female. Next to that, there is no depth into a lot of the plot points created. I know anime like these are just seedy to get you to want to go read the manga, but regardless of that, it still feels like it could have been made a bit better than it was. I personally plan to read the manga in the near future, However that doesn't excuse the lack of closure onto this series, nor does it excuse the god awful 12th episode, If they left it at Ep 11 for this I would have been far happier with the ending.

Art: 9 - So, I don't know why but for some reason I really like the way this anime looks, Its flashy, bright colours and catching. the character designs are animated well, the scenes are created well enough to give the atmosphere without having to even know what they are saying. Generally just enjoyable to look at. However, everyone has their own tastes, so take it as you will.

Sound: 8 - I really can't explain this. Nothing sounded off to me so im shooting in the dark here. I apologise.

Character: 9 - I will preface this by saying that I really only cared about Shizuki through most of the series, she is by far my favourite and most appealing character. This is obviously a bias as she fits pretty closely to the ideal woman I would have in mind, However, disregarding that, the characters don't really have a backstory, its not a bad thing because this anime is not deep enough for them, So moving on to the characters themselves, Shizuki is basically your standard Kuudere type, however changes a bit and doesn't seem so cold in general within 1-2 episodes. She without any clear reason falls for the MC and continues to have her feelings ignored until the end. Generally though, an interesting character, only truly interested in the MC and has no qualms showing her affections. We move on to Akane, She gets introduced very quick as a badass, foul mouthed person who wants nothing more than to fight, However after she is saved by the MC from a falling poll (which he himself makes fall) she disengages and later shows up as her normal, shy self which also, has inexplicedly fallen for the MC over time. she is quick to assume and then quick to get shut down and become embarressed. Asides from her Kampfer side she is not bold and does not get what she wants, generally speaking. Next up, Kondou, the childhoold friend of our MC, for a good portion you see nothing but postcard images from her travelling around the world, suddenly she shows up and has also become a Kampfer, weird huh, everyone around the main character is a Kampfer. anyways, Kondou is an outspoken girl who clearly has, what a suprise, affection for the MC. she dislikes his Kampfer side, however adores his normal side and shows clear jelousy of the other girls whom have gone to the MC. Second to last, we have Kaede, my absolute, most hated character. we are introduced to her as a cute, idol-like person who has slight affections to the Main character. however after the MC turns into a Kampfer, we are quickly made aware that she is, in fact a lesbian who loves the other side of the MC, as most of the other characters in this story just so happen to be lesbians (speaking to the girls side of the school) it is made largly apparent that she has 0 true interest in the MC other than to get to his hidden female form. That is litterally her only motive through and through. Lastly, we have the MC, Natsuru. We are introduced to him as a female, he has transformed thanks to the power of some beings called the "moderators" and so his life is completely messed up, he now randomly (till he learns shit) turns into a girl and is stuck with the mixed up feelings of everyone. For the most part he is an annoying little shit, but that is because despite knowing that Kaede is a complete 100% lesbian, he is still only interested in her, even in his male state. It is honestly one of the most annoying ploys I have seen thus far in anime. Moveing on, he gradually grows and becomes closer to the other three girls mentioned, closest becoming to Shizuku, as they go on a date, have their first kisses together, and end up nearly sharing a bed, if you get what I mean. it is her that reverts him back near the end with the events that happen. However as he is star crossed over Kaede, he does not immedietly realize Shizukus' or the other girls feelings for him and believes their actions to be malevolent or not entirely benign. quite simply he is your standard harem MC, however he has a bit of a complex over one girl. that just about covers him

Enjoyment: 8 - I really enjoyed this anime, id honestly recommend it, however I will say to skip Ep 12. Lastely, I know for sure I will enjoy the Manga more. So keep that in mind.

Overall: 7 - as an overall anime. I give it a 7. It has its good points, its bad points, but in the end it is not really anything new. it has a few interesting concepts that are badly explored and an ending that makes me want to give it a 5 with high inner scores. that aside. it is still good.

(TL:DR on my ramblings. I enjoy Shizuku, Sorry I can't give a super good review but I am new to this)

So, here you have a story about An all boys school, and an all girls school. Now since this is an Ecchi/Harem anime, obviously theres going to be the obnoxious shit that comes with it. The bullshit characters, the lovable ones and the half baked story covered with breasts. Well, in this case nothing could be more wrong

Story: 2 - So, basically the two schools come together and a bunch of Ecchi antics happen, the usual shit, accidents that look so wrong, misunderstandings and the typical shit, but this anime goes further and makes most of them intentional actions by the 3 supporting retards, A ... typical tryhard romantic, a siscon, and the fat perv. Oh god, what these three wont do to try and get in girls pants. Terrible writing, terrible everything, even the attempt at the past coming to fruition somehow was shoddy, Nothing about this was coherent or enjoyable.

Art: 4 - Ok, So, i'm being generous here given that this anime was a 2003 product, for the time its not the worst that could have happened. but it still isnt great, Im being leniant here but there is litterally nothing about thsi that looks unique or enjoyable to the visual stimulus that makes it worth watching.

Sound: 2 - It is a bit catchy in some respect, but thats only because it fits how shitty the anime really is

Character: 5 - Ok, so this would be a 2 if I didn't just adore Futaba as a character. I know there is not much to like but she is by far the most enjoyable character. If you watch it, god forbid. you will probably see what im talking about. She is funny at times, has a cool head about most things and doesnt go crazy, she develops feelings for our shitty MC out of his acts of kindness, but doesnt neccesarily tell him, wishing instead that he would be a girl so she didnt have to have those feelings towards his kinds heart. She saves this catagory with a bare 5, Oh.. her sister is also kinda funny with the cactus dynamic

Enjoyment: 2 - I would rather watch the fillers for Bleach than this. Enough said.

Overall: 2 - I do not in any way reccomend this. It is getting a 2 simply because of Futaba and that is all. May this series die and be forgotten about.

As others, I watched the Anime first. I noticed a lot of things I did not like about the anime, however after completing it, having fallen in love with the MC Ren, I decided for the first time ever to read a Manga of my own accord from beggining to end. Sure, that itself is weird. A lot of people complain that this is a clear Chobits rip off. I can barely agree. It has some similiar elements to it, however the development of everything is different. The characters are not close enough for that to be the case and it just feels more unique ... than most of this Genre. However, I speak as someone who loves both Chobits and DearS.

Story - 9 Ok, So i know it seems hard to believe but I love this story. I am a complete sucker for this kind of story, Boy meets Girl is just something I enjoy. No particular reason why. However this one turned out to be different. Just like Toradora! I fell in love with it gradually. it kept pulling me in, leaving bread crumbs of interest to lead me deeper into it. By the end, I was shaking with emotions because I didn't know what to feel.

Art - 9 Ok, some people claim to hate the art for its inconsistancy, Now while I can agree that it has inconsistancies, that is what makes it good. Those chibi sloppy little doodles add so much to it and they just make me laugh. It adds a light tone to contrast the serioues points throughout. The designs of the characters and the backgrounds just drew me in closer to the Manga, What else can I say, its wonderful

Character - 10 Now, I know a LOT of people will disagree because you'll see similiar to older series. But I just love how they progress and regress at stages, How the characters develop themselves and develop others with their own actions, They all learn equally, though some of them have far more development, that is because of the supporting characters developing as well. Not to mention the love of Melon Bread that Ren has. That i just can't not love, its just to funny.

Enjoyment - 10 I absolutly love this Manga, I have so much enjoyment from it as it is the first series I have ever read through and through simply because it pulled me in. I tried to do it with others but it never worked because I could not get invested into the characters or anything else enough. Peach-Pit did a magnificant job with this and I am incredibly happy with the ending. I wish there were maybe 2 more chapters released as specials to show how things progressed through after the end, But hey. I won't complain. Im completely satisfied.

Overall - 9 I can't give it a perfect 10 because the other aspects arn't unanimously 10's I think that the rest of this review can state strongly enough how I feel for this Series as a whole.

Recommendation - Highly, Go in with an open mind and do not drop it if things aren't going the way you want, give it a few. Have a little faith and try to see it at least half way through. However. I strongly advise against the Anime. it was done poorly and brings great shame upon this wonderful peice of art.

Basic Boy meets girl anime. You would think that, right? Just a typical run of the mill kinda thing but you would be wrong. It is a story about deceit and various events. It both has and doesnt have typical anime tropes. It bends them and twists them around into something beautiful. Toradora! Takes your run of the mill average guy and turns him into the main character. He is not well liked and tends to be treated with disgust by most people. Ryuuji meets Taiga and suddenly his world changes in a 25 episode wonder that I strongly, STRONGLY encourage you to watch for ... yourself. Sure, as it is in my top 5 favourite anime and I am most certainly not a proffesional reveiwer capable of telling you everything finite and perfect or imperfect with Toradora, I can't say what you may think. But at the very least. Try it. You may at times encounter bordom, But again. I STRONGLY urge you to push through.
