There is a lot of things to talk about this, but in short, it is rush, full of plot convenience, and well, a cash grab. It is watchable if that is what we are talking about, part of it come from the fact that I still have an attachment to the casts, I want to see them and I want to see the interaction between each character. All of that feeling contributes greatly to make this movie watchable. Is it good? Nah, Is it up to expectation? Nah. Although I told myself to have no expectation for this one, yet there’s still this lingering feeling
...
that I’ve hoped to see some quality in the firm. Reality sucks.
The resurrection of Lelouch is, in the first place, defy the well-established conclusion already, so IF we want to see the cast, then we need to throw that conclusion into the garbage first. Actually that is really not a big deal, as long as we get more quality content but what do we get here? Plot convenience war with a rush solution for the sake of telling the audience “Hey, Lelouch is back”.
Now the first half, before Lelouch Resurrection, everything happens as everyone expecting I suppose, It is ok. We see C.C, we see Shuzaku spinning meme, we see the CASTs again. GOOD. This is selling on the nostalgia feeling right. Now then, after the resurrection, the real content, the war, as everyone, again, expected, feel extremely loose. The way Lelouch traced down the enemy, the way he organized and commanded the war, the old feeling of Code Geass is gone. Everything feels like it is happening for the sake of happening. The way Lelouch deduced the enemy Geass is also force and no explaining on how he got to that conclusion. Is it force? Yes, it freaking is.
My humble opinion, It might be better if they develop it in a more detailed way, but that will need to make it into TV series, and if, the war happens too long, that also wouldn’t fit much of this small scale war. BUT maybe, just maybe, they could make it cover a different genre, maybe like a mysteries of C world, a battle of wit to gain control of C world that would leave a better taste than what we have here. In conclusion, thanks for the hard work, but I feel it could be much better.

In nutshell, It was quite enjoyable in the mean of relaxing until the last 2 episodes.
Let's list what we have in this anime first. An OP MC, A twin sisters, A samurai girls, a loli, a hundred years old loli.
I enjoy the pace at the start admittedly, OP isekai MC gets the girls, moves to next adventure. They develop it in a pretty fast way without dragging. The MC is OP, they don't prolong much of the fight just for the sake of it. After each episode, we get to see a new side of something. Even though frankly, there is nothing new to
...
be awe about, you can feel they also did not intend to introduce you to something 'new', but it is more like they briefly introduce their own world in a fast-pace-yet-relaxing-pace-style. It's the same magic fantasy you see out there, they tell you that without trying to make it more complicated than it should be. Therefore it only takes a short time, and we have the rest of screen time for our adventure.
The adventure we have is also not something impressive but I also don't have problems with it -Sure there are flaws over the cliche encounter style, but it is something that can be forgiven due to how they treat it. It is merely a device to introduce something new 'briefly'. Briefly here is probably the keypoint that erases the cliche problem for me.
You can see all chicks start flocking to our MC, but as what it did is exploring its own world, I didn't feel bad about this development. For one reason, it didn't make the MC deal with their feeling just for the sake of resetting it back to status quo. We see the obvious love for the MC, we see how the girls play their little jealous game for MC attention, it's cliche but somehow still funny, and it never pushes the boundary of confronting the feeling, because, again, it's focusing on exploring its own world and their little game only sneaks in for a short time once in a while- at least for the first 10 episode.
The shows would have been a bit better without the last 2 episodes. It failed and did what it shouldn't have done. The straightforward story with no romance dragging is destroyed in the last 2 episodes. Because that is what it did. It is revolving around making a drama of romance and finally reset it back to status-quo. I thought this anime won't do this cheap reset-development, but alas, they did it, and it turned me off greatly.
While nothing impressive exists in this show, it also isn't bad due to its straightforwardness and focusing on what it is doing.

A short love story which opposes to your typical romance anime. That's a nuance in its romance. A short love story that begins with "I love you" from the very start.
Tsurezure Children depicts various types of short love stories in a light heart way, it's never taken itself seriously, yet its romance is more believable than your typical anime romance. And that is the charm of it. What contributed to this is probably the screen time it dedicates to each couple as well as the amount of development they receive throughout those small screen time. The love develops in a cute and funny way and
...
they also don't hold back or drag the development just for the sake of repeating the same joke. This makes this anime really refreshing to watch.
There a lot of couples that I think I won't be able to recall all of them but each of them is extremely cute in their own way. They consist of different type of personality and mix together in a very natural way. For instance, that student council-boy and the blonde-bad-girl. I find their relationship to be extremely cute, maybe it because how their personality balances each other so well.
Ok, I don't want to make this too long since the anime is also short. In overall, it is a short, relaxed, cute, funny and refreshing love story that didn't drag itself like a stereotype romance you typically see out there. Give it a try if you want to find something short and cute and straightforward to watch.

In many of the Isekai trope, Evil God Average takes female protagonist as it MC. I find this to be quite refreshing among all overpowered boy gets all the chicks trope --not that I inherently have any problem with that.
Evil God Average is a relaxing misunderstood tropes comedy. Our protagonist is granted with OP aura and mystic eyes that would terrify every living thing. She only wishes for a normal and average lifestyle, but alas, poor little girl.
The story is pretty straightforward, it moves at its own pace, and the core of the story is about the 'problem' that keep appearing to our protagonist. By
...
problems, it is not some sort of drama or long-wind-plot, but merely a development that our protagonist never wishes to happen but have to deal with it anyway.
The fact that our protagonist is female does help in seeing a development in a little different light than usual and also help in character relationship. Again, I don't inherently dislike male protagonist get a flock of chicks everywhere he goes, but in Evil God Average, I sort of find it sexier than normal. Might be due to my Yuri-blood keeps shipping for the never-gonna-happen-scenario but still, I like more this way. Side characters are funny too, especially their impression on our protagonist. I laugh at the side-story which told the story from other characters' perspective more than I thought I would.
Overall, it is a straight-forward and relaxing isekai story with female protagonist. Her interaction with others and how she tries to live a normal life in a world where she is granted with terrifying aura is funny to read.
