This is my first review.
Even though (at this point) only 5 episodes have been aired, I still think that Occult Academy is one of the best animes of the season.
Story 8:
I don't really know what to say here. We don't know that much yet but from what I've seen it's pretty good so far.
Art 8:
I love the animation in this series. It's very smooth and I can't spot many mistakes. Character designs are simple but I still like them a lot. I also really like the art style. The opening is very well animated is very nice to look at.

Sound 8:
It's really hard for me to comment on the overall music of a series since I don't really notice the BGM until I listen to the OST. The reason I gave this an 8 though is because of the opening and ending themes. I have had both of them stuck in my head for days now and often catch myself singing them. The opening really gets you pumped for the episode. The singer really puts a lot of emotion into both of the songs and I can't wait until the full version of the opening is released.
Character 8:
Like the story, we don't know much about the characters yet but I still love them. I like the fact the Maya downplays the Tsudere trope and is a pretty likeable character. Uchieda is also pretty likeable but we don't know much about him. The side characters (Ami, Kouze, Chihiro, JK etc.) are also great and they're all very funny (especially Chihiro xD I burst out laughing at her scenes).
Enjoyment 9:
I love this series so far. It manages to make you laugh and scare you at the same time. At the end of each episode I always say "I don't wanna wait another week!" because I really want to know what happens next. The comedy is great and you'll find yourself laughing every episode.
Overall 9:
So far Occult Academy is a great series. I really suggest that you give it a watch and hope that you enjoy it as much as I do.
