This anime falls short of expectations in several key areas. The protagonist's characterization is deeply flawed, coming across as imbecile and unsympathetic. The narrative follows a familiar and overused trope where the female lead, a "gal," is superficially judged but ultimately revealed to be pure-hearted.
Having watched over 50 anime in the past six months, I can confidently say that this series was a significant letdown. Despite my efforts to persevere, I found myself unable to continue beyond the second episode. While the voice acting was commendable, it was not enough to redeem the overall experience.
Overall, "Hajimete no Gal" is a disappointing venture, and

Mairimashita! Iruma-kun

From the very first episode of season one to the latest episode (as of January 19, 2025), Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun has consistently held my attention.

On a more positive note, the voice actors delivered exceptional performances, effectively conveying the emotional nuances of the story. Their efforts ensured that the emotional weight was felt, particularly during the more intense scenes. "Domestic Girlfriend" does not depict a conventional romantic storyline; instead, it explores ...

Kekkon suru tte, Hontou desu ka
(Anime)
add
"Kekkon suru tte, Hontou desu ka" proves to be a well-paced and engaging series. Despite some deviations from the manga, the storyline maintains a smooth flow that sustains interest without inducing boredom or undue tension. The narrative is skillfully crafted, blending romance with everyday scenarios in a manner that feels authentic and relatable.
One of the anime’s strengths lies in its character development, notably with its introspective main protagonists. Throughout the series, these characters gradually emerge from their shells, particularly in pivotal moments that underscore their growth. This evolution adds a layer of realism and depth to the storyline. Moreover, the anime adeptly navigates the complexities ... |
