We all know the most serialized Manhua tropes these days: mc gets OP and shakes the world through time travel/reincarnation and ascends the tower in his world. This trope and premiss get used so much that it is often hard to be surprised by the story. I'm happy to say that is not the case with SSS-Class Revival Hunter.

Besides the obvious cliche name and pretty typical intro in season 1, this manhwa used unique abilities and their utilization, with the mc whose dedication and progression you witness. The story is written in a way that the reader completely comprehends the powers that the mc can ... use as if the author is nudging us to figure out how the mc will be able to utilize them in various predicaments he is in.

The ongoing season two has incredible writing and I can not wait for more chapters! The unique approach to issues is where this story shines, and you will be left wanting more!

I love romantic comedies, and this one is just perfect.
"Sensei wa Koi wo Oshierarenai" doesn't waste chapters, it knows what it is trying to achieve. We get to know more about these characters and their messy lives with every new page. Nothing is wasted and the manga feels perfectly paced, even the slower moments are not boring as we get to know the sides of the characters we haven't seen before.
This story is incredibly wholesome and deserves high praise. The characters are written perfectly and for every cutesy moment, you get your fair share of laughter. Not to mention the high level of art.
I ... HIGHLY RECOMMEND BUYING THIS MANGA
We need to support smaller and newer manga, especially this one!
I can not wait for this manga to get more chapters.

I never thought a manga might make me wish for a girl to stuff her fingers down my throat.
But on a more serious note, Fukanzen de Fueisei de Fushidara is genuinely hilarious. A weird rom-com, about a girl with a teeth fetish and a guy with an embarrassing past.
I wish there were more chapters out there translated soi could finish the series, but for the 8 chapters out there, this story is funny as hell, and I wish more people would read it!

Story- a little basic, but quirky non the less. Even incredibly cute at times.

Art is top tier, its good, nothing to complain about, ... the character designs are great

The characters themselves lack a bit, since most of them don't go beyond the surface level of their in-the-face unique personalities.

However all of that paired with some teeth fetish, and you got yourself a very enjoyable, weird but cute romantic comedy.

Kyoukai no Kanata - anime that will make you reconsider wearing glasses. I was hesitant going into the show due to the criticism it receives online. Im glad to say it's not as bad as people put it out to be.

I shall address the criticism first. This show, unfortunately, is not what it seems. IT. had such a phenomenal setup and created a truly interesting world to explore with its first arc, and if it were to continue with its original more serious, and more developed tone, we would have a show to rival Jujitsu Kaizen. But there is no point in talking about ifs. ... After some idiotic filler episodes and a poorly thought out and developed ending the story as it stands is fair at best. The change of tone non explored villain and the rushed romantic storyline make the beginning of this anime seem like a completely different series in it itself.
Talking about unexplored characters, Kyoukai no Kanata suffers deeply from half-assed writing and surface-level development. Additionally, the comedy just doesn't work. Just saying " hey that dude has a sister complex" or "that dude will go nuts if a girl wheres glasses" doesn't make the audience laugh it just makes the characters extremely unlikeable. This point really pisses me the hell off. There was a fairly serious moment coming at the ending of the show, and it was ruined completely by these poor attempts at humor, it wasn't even borderline creepy, just extremely disturbing.
Now that I blasted this anime with all I had it might seem that it's unwatchable, well that depends on what you look like in the show. Kyoukai no Kanata has one of the best Animation in my recent history. It ironically follows the rules of "Show, don't tell". The atmospheres of the scenes are emphasized exponentially by wonderfully done animation. The same goes for the Sound. The OP and the voiceovers are just phenomenal. Furthermore, the enjoyment is over the top due to amazing FIGHT SEQUENCES. Dynamic action, full of impact, just splendid.

Finally to conclude. I understand where all the negativity is coming from and it's mostly deserved. But I still highly recommend watching this anime. Go into it not expecting a serious show, but rather a story for a night. Yes, some moments are truly bad and it's upsetting, but that's in the shadow of how good the Artistic intention put into here is. 8/10

P.S. Im truly sad that the story sucked, if the show picked rather be a silly rom-com with fight sequences or another serious fighting anime, it would have succeeded, but unfortunately this will have to do

Kakegurui×× could not outshine its prequel, when you aim too high but don't put much effort into your goals, you end up getting a shitty result.

This is a perfect example of a tournament arc gone wrong. The beginning of this season started great, and the games were truly entertaining, the tricks, cheats, and gambles were even more elaborate. Kakegurui always managed to deliver a thrilling and entertaining ride, and this time they pulled it off even better. That combined with the persistent unique and appealing art style where this animes only trump cards. But unfortunately, that was not enough, poorly written and awfully developed characters ... combined with a disappointing but obvious ending made the ride a little "sadge" in the end. Unless you are a 4th grader, I bet you could figure out how the showdown will play out by the 7th or 8th episode. And that's bad because the closest we have to the "Big bad villain" of the show has no development besides an exposition dump making the experience feel like a history crash course lecture. This even negatively affected the overall enjoyment.

In the end, Kakegurui×× was a roller coaster picking up speed and unexcitedly slowing down after the first have of the season. I enjoyed it nonetheless since logical shows that explain their games are rare, and the thrill is really there. 7/10

Kakegurui might be one of the most entertaining shows I have seen in a while. It doesn’t make it a good show necessarily, but it sure is breathtaking.

A show about gambling is hard to pull off, or any show about games for that matter. You have to have the talent to be able to explain the rules, the stakes, and the aura surrounding the game without sounding boring like a rule book.
I won’t be the first to admit that Kakegurui is not for everyone, most people will simply see it as an over-exaggerated and bizarre piece of media. While in reality, it’s a hidden ... gem. Sure the art style is unique and menacing at some points, however, that just adds to its appeal. I haven’t seen a show like this and it made me really pay attention to the screen. Additionally, compositing and all of the 3D scenes were done splendidly. Talking about art, what a wonderful OP, and the rest of the sound, I was feeling the emotions through the scene simply due to the sound. But the BIGGEST plus of the show is the THRILL. Oh my goodness I can’t praise this show enough for how well it managed to explain the games and the cheating without making it boring, I found myself feeling like a character trying to figure out how one character or another is manipulating the game, it really pulls you in. The last 3 episodes were my favorite, I was leaning in after episode ten betting my males, the enjoyment, and the stakes made this so much more exciting.
However, you can’t have a rainbow without rain. To have a really good show you have to sacrifice some aspects. This anime lacked character development. I couldn’t connect whatsoever. The protagonist lacked reality, and some of her actions made her look a bit too powerful. You can’t connect to characters without weakness or at the very minimum explanations for their abilities or drive.

Non the less Kakegurui was a hell of a ride. Breathtaking and only going up, which is rare 8/10

Komi-San wa, Comyushou desu, is amazing, and it deserves the anime adaptation it’s getting. However I won’t lie, I’m somewhat scared about the success of thee show, due to the mana.

Let’s start with the positives:
The e characters are phenomenal. Komi Shouko has flaws and quirks. We can relate to her on a certain level. All of us had hardships regarding communication. Komi is such a realistic character you get invested into her future by the 5/7 chapter. Same goes fore most main and background characters, this is due to the slow pacing of the manga allowing for more situations and setups to occur.
Art: ... goodness gracious, I scream out loud when I see a full frame of one of the main or supporting characters showing their emotion. It’s so GODDAMN CUTE. Additionally the simplistic style is not bad at all, sure it lacks detail, but the amount of text and story and development easily makes up for it.
Talking about story: it’s so god damn ENTERTAINING. It’s good and it finally ( latest chapter) gets to the point all of us have been waiting for.

Unfortunately we will have to go to the negatives next, and simply there is only one big flailing and huge negative that in it of itself is sort of a positive as well. Let me explain, pacing of this manga is PAINFULLY slow. It takes us 200 chapters to get to the point that other manga gets to after 10 chapters. It’s so slow it took me 2 days to finish this manga.
On the other hand , this allows for meaningful and in-depth character development of variety of characters. But unfortunately that’s not big good of an excuse to justify such slow pacing.
After praising the characters so much it would be a crime not to mention one of the main characters that so basic to the point of him being just an average human , whelk that’s his character in it of itself. His character is an “average guy” and it doesn’t work. Even average characters have flaws , and we don’t even get to explore his. We have a bullshit of an exploration in one of the latest chapter, when we have the “my openly flaw is that I wanna be good” excuse.

In the end although one of the characters is written poorly and the pacing is atrocious, Komi-San wa, Comyushou desu. still so god damn ENTERTAINING. I would read this again and again, disregarding the flaws. 8/10 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

O Maidens in Your Savage Season
An amazing story reminding us of adolescence, which unfortunately falls short at the end.

It's rare to see an accurate and oddly familiar portrayal of puberty, however, "O Maidens" archives it beautifully! There are many instances in this series where I found myself smirking and thinking, "Well well, this takes me back 3 years". Interaction with characters as well as individual monologs feel authentic, making you nostalgic for the past. As well as the serious moments are believable and truly difficult to watch, as intended, which doesn't take anything away from the anime, rather encapsulates the experiences characters go through. Great ... art and outstanding pacing bring together this show and create a breathtaking experience...

However, PERSONALLY, I had some bones to pick with the show. For such realistic and honest storytelling, the ending seemed out of place and rushed. As well as the decision taken by the main characters seemed out of place for their personality. These storyline choices knocked me out of the smooth ride and brought down the story grade from 9 to a 7, which is unfortunate since the entirety of the anime was so great!
Talking about the characters, it seemed like the number of characters hindered the ability to develop them more to make it more believable, maybe then the ending wouldn't have been so unrealistic to me. Niina and Hitoha, are written and explained perfectly, you really can understand their characters, however, I wished to see more of Momoko and Rika's "drive". Especially Momoko, she had so much potential, and I was incredibly excited to have a potential LGBT character, but she could have been explored deeper.

In the end, O Maidens in Your Savage Season gets an 8/10 from me, despite its shortcomings and my personal feelings for the ending, the story was worth it. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ANIME
