Just a Quick review if this amazing show... ok maybe not the best show, but still great non-the-less. The below is for the English Dub which IMO is a great way to watch it (Reason below... Small Spoilers as well i think?)

Story: 7/10
Characters: 10/10
Art style: 8/10
Sound: 8/10
English VA: 10/10
Dry Humour: 1000/10

I won't write up the plot in this review because well... This site already says it, So i will just keep this brief like my Work Experience.
...
-The Story is very cliché, 2 useless adventurers make a party and go on useless adventures until the last episode.
-The Characters are all loveable. Karla and Alvin's chemistry is as soon as one of them speaks the other just put them down almost immediately without holding back. Each character has something unique about them, and i am not talking about their skills because Alvin has none... i am talking about their personality. a total Blonde Bimbo Cyclops, a Perverted BDSM loving Medusa, a Mushroom that seems to pop out of no where and is always behind on what is happening (tends to mimic Karla), a Necromancer that should've been a healer, a Mimic that can't mimic, the list goes on. so i will stop here... man that is a long paragraph
-Artstyle is something is just average... so this will be short... unlike what i just wrote up
-Sound, BOOM
-I watched this show english dubbed and tbh, anyone who disliked this show should watch it again in English. The English VA are just so good and Karla's is the best i have heard, perfect for her sarcastic personality and straight face... last time i heard something good was Alexis Tipton voicing Kaguya... seriously how can she Alexis make anyone sound man hungry.
-The Comedy in this is literally no joke (ironic) non-stop. there is a joke nearly every 1 minute, Karla always finds something to poke at about Alvin and Alvin always tries to tell karla that she is just as useless as he is. the mid episodes is where it gets really good, so please stay around. It being humour every second (went from Minute to Second there)... it is better off to be listened to with English Voices.

This show is Amazing and i will leave this brief review as it is... 8/10 thanks the Story.

This is a review of the English Dub

What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of English Dub... ok trick question... it is, they are amazing when it comes to Comedy.

This Anime was Funny **** and i just can't describe what i felt when all of the Konosuba References, and age old memes used through out the series, from a badly Censored "Tea bagging" scene to classic uses of "deez nutz" and "Noice". Non stop gags galore.

The story is straight forward and easy to follow... which is what it needed. it is basically "Sent to another world for research while the MC ... goes and tries to stop the demon lord" with other crap in between.

Characters are better designed than Konosuba... they don't suffer from the same boyish face (serious, Aqua looks more like a man than Kazuma does in most scenes). Each character is unique in personality, and i have to say, i enjoyed them all, even the side characters...

Sound is standard for these types of anime... but the English Voice Acting... AMAZING, Like what the hell, they did an outstanding job and put in 100% into each of their roles. SO i applaud them.

I enjoyed almost every bit of this anime, and i can't really find any to fault it. if you want to past the time or want to laugh stupidly Watch this Dubbed.

NOTE: Review is of English Dub

This series has been a blessing and just what I needed.
Everything was superb and well done from the Artstyle, Characters, Sound, Facial Expressions, and even the story was well done.

The Story is basic... but different in a good way. A Princess is captured by the Demon King, Princess finds ways to get the best Sleep possible and doesn't care that everyone is a Demon. The Humans Send a Hero to get her Back... Which never happens as the Hero is an Idiot... Basic Stuff... But Good enough to keep me going in this Comf of an anime.

Starting with the English ... Dub... This was a very well done Dub, it ticked all the right boxes. The VA chosen were great.
Kira Buckland (Beatrice - Re:Zero) as The Princess was the Best Choice for this role and couldn't have chosen anyone better. She made the Princess cute and funny all at the right times. Her sleeping sounds, the anger, the pleasure, the sarcasm, The Sneeze in Ep8 was all 10/10 - IGN.
Now for the other characters, Just like Kira, they all played the parts well and made this series so enjoyable to watch and Listen.
The Script Was also done Really good, they didn't try to change things too much and when they did, it was for the Gag... Episode 9 had a Brilliant Star Wars reference not present in the Japanese Dub.

Artstyle was pretty good, had that cute charm to it, the Facial Expressions were Simple but Over Exaggerated at times which added to various situations.
The backgrounds were very Fantasy like and beautiful for the Artstyle. Even though i gave praise, this is still the weakest part of the series.

Sound... As i Said, i watched the English Dub and the English VA are great in nearly every way.
For the SFX, they are Amazing, but they are far far from the worst i have heard, Like why would you need amazing SFX in something like this.
Music wise though it is pretty good, but uses the same tracks over and over again, but meh.

Characters turn. They are unique and each one is Cute... Somehow, don't know how they made a Giant Porcupine cute, but they did it. Each Character has their own personality and fitting of their Character designs. There is nothing you can Improve to make these characters Better. The Princess is the Standout here of cause with her charming personality of being Energetic but Sleepy at the same time. Every of Character also Stands out as they get just as much Screen time as the Princess. They put a lot of effort into the characters and love each one.

Overall i loved this series and wouldn't mind a 2nd... or 3rd Season of this even if it is the same as the first season.

9/10.

Although i enjoyed this... it spoiled a lot of the 2nd Season of the anime and should be watched after the 2nd season, which means this shouldn't marked as a side story for the 1st season, it will spoil everyone who is misinformed on the series and think they should watch these afterwards.

Back to the Review.
This was just as good as the main series. The Art style, Character development and the overall enjoyment was very good. Had a more than a few laughs. The VA do a good job at bringing the characters to life and hit the right points (NOTE: I watched the ... Anime English Dubbed before hand which is also very Good and pretty much spot on compared to the Japanese Dub). Both episodes are done to the same height that the main series has set and you will enjoy these 2 OVA... That Said... PLEASE WATCH THESE AFTER SEASON 2

I watched the Movie Today and I am a big fan when it comes to Studio Ghibli films. I'll Keep this review short.

To start off, I'll head Fly Straight into the Characters and CG of the Film. The Background art is almost Disney/Pixar quality, it is very Beautiful and Stunning. The Lighting of the scenes is well done, and the Rain is great. Foliage is almost life like but still fits into the world with the Characters. Special Effects are almost Disney quality and are well done.

I had a small gripe about Characters and how they looks and placed into the scenes... but that ... grew on me. The character designs still have the Ghibli Charm. They may look flat at first glance, but to me they do not.
The first thing you may notice is the hair which has a Plastic like Doll Appearance which IMO looks great. Then you notice the Eyes and Eyebrows, These are very expressive for a 3D Model and actually look nice.
The Mouth is the only Issue on the Character Models, they just feel slow and look weird (This is more Apparent in the Dub where the VA/ADR don't do a good job with Lip Sync making you stare at their Mouths more).
When you get to the Clothes these are standard with normal Textures so nothing special.

Each Character has there own unique charm and are enjoyable to watch. The Mandrake the most Unique of the Characters has had extra care put into him, and is the character most people would like... i know right, the most scary one is the best one..

For the Plot, I'll keep this short (Yeah like haven't done so far), It is Average, but Captivating, you don't want to look away. Almost every minute was good, some parts were Questionable, but the rest was fine. There isn't any plot holes... ok maybe one, but i wont talk about it because you will need to see it yourself. The Ending was a Cliffhanger like at the end of a Harem Anime... It is set up like there will be a sequel... but Ghibli doesn't do sequels and apparently the Book isn't finished because of the writer, So i have no clue what will happen. iIwant more... but probably won't get it.

Overall Thoughts, It is an enjoyable film till the end with some issues in the CG but you get used to it quickly. The Plot can be better, but it is nowhere near bad, just wish it didn't have the Cliffhanger. The characters are loveable and the backdrops are beautiful. I definitely recommend this film, just don't set your expectations too high.

Loved this series... until the last episode which should have been somewhere in the middle of the series. episode 12 was a good ending then they ruined it with a stupid out of placed OVA that isn't an OVA.

The Characters are great and i had a lot of enjoyment out of this series, the comedy is on point and there is ecchi scenes... until you get to the end where they throw Full Nudity which is out of place. the artstyle is just over average, and the Suzutsuki has those dead eyes suiting of her personality.

the Romance is good but like most Harem, it goes ... no where at the end, but at least they try to make it happen with both MC's and Kinjiro acknowledges at the end unlike some harem protagonists...

I give it 7/10 because of that ending, the rest is great.

I don't normally Review Hentai, because people would see this on my profile and like, WTF, but here i go.

I Loved this. The story is the only thing not on point with the rest but everything makes sense in the end after you watch all 4 episodes. As the Story Progresses you get start to understand how the World works and why she suddenly chose the the teacher which shows a lot of resemblance to the the MC of Interview with Monster Girls.

This is basically the same but they want sex to produce offspring to save their race. They start falling for him other ... than wanting his D, and that is fine. Each character is unique and adds to the overall hentai. their personalities are bloody amazing.

The art style is better than most hentai and that makes it better to watch. The sound Design on top is just as good, nothing too cringy like some others.

I had a lot of fun and wish it went for longer than 4 episodes, but hentai is hentai and they don't normally go for more than 2 episodes each (unless you are Poro and make 2 different stories within 1 series with multiple chapters in each about "incest" and "rape", to be honest, 1 is 100x better than 2, whoops went on for to long back to the hentai at 1 hand)

Overall i loved this and hopefully more Hentai follow this as an example to make better hentai with more plot.

I decided to watch this Movie in the split second that nearly made me miss the last bus that would make me arrive at the cinema on time.

From the Title you know what you are getting yourself into. even at the start of the film it starts just like Grave of the Fireflies. after it takes you back to where it began and you embark on an amazing journey that makes you Sad and happy with how Sakura handles her illness. As time goes by you immediately feel uneasy and sorry, until the credits roll and longer as a the end credit scene plays ... (yes just like Marvel there is one).

The Characters are all charming even with only a few you get to know with it focusing on the Main character (His name is disclosed till the end of film so i wont say it) and Sakura. The Voice actors did a remarkable job on this film and suit the characters perfectly. It's hard to write a review about this film without spoilers as everything i want to write is considered a spoiler here.

The Art Design is just like "A Silent Voice" with scenes that are so pretty with Cherry blossoms, fireworks, and even the normal city streets are beautiful. makes you wonder why the real world isn't like that. The facial expressions on the characters immediately capture what kind of person that character is and as time goes by how their personality has changed.

Sound Design is just like any over Slice of Life anime, its pleasant and peaceful, and gives the scene a perfect atmosphere on what they are trying to go for. The Opening theme to the Film is very good and wouldn't mind listening to it from time to time... But i don't think i could handle it with the type of film this is.

Overall i enjoyed this Film, it brought tears to my eyes and i was engrossed all the why through. If you haven't seen it yet, see it now. i say its better or just as good as "A Slient Voice" or "Your Name" and is definitely worth your time.

Before i end this review, ill like to say to the People who only watch Dubs, i also mainly watch Dubs as well. I found at sometimes it was moving a bit quick, but still held up, the Voices are very well done and you should see it instead of waiting for a Dub that will never come. So please See this Film while you can.

i watched this Subbed back last November in cinemas... it was good but not watching the series subbed before hand, made it confusing a little... and the fact the subs moved quickly in some parts... Finally watching it dubbed nearly 1 year later made me remember how amazing the dub was with Shiro's cute voice... Also being used as Shuvi's voice. This movie is great in sub and dub and now all i want is Season 2.

The characters are brilliant in this, the pacing is pretty perfect, and the story is great all the way through. you feel sad, happy, jealous and what ever ... the feeling is when something funny happens out of the blue... this is at least a 9.5/10... but MAL don't let you post percentages... so a 9 will suffice.

This movie also made get my first Scale Figure Preorder... it being the 1/7th scale Kotobukiya Shuvi... which looks amazing in person. it sparked something getting that figure... anyway enough figure talk. if you love the series you will love this.
