This show is pretty much what you can see from other similar anime. The difference is, they took the cliche` and added some variations to it, making it very enjoyable to watch.
Story (8/10)
Well the story is not unique. Again, it is pretty much what you can see in anime of the same genre. Magic Competitions, villains, badass mc. The story is easy to understand. The thing is, in some anime, the way they explain their magic powers is difficult to understand, but in this anime, they did a good job in explaining their magic. The only problems I see with the story is that it
...
is repetitive at some point and it is a bit too rushed. They crammed 5 volumes of the LN into a 12-episode anime. Even though it is crammed, it does not take any important and significant part out so it's acceptable. To sum it up, the story is quite normal but enjoyable!
Art (9/10)
The art is great. The magic casting, CQC scenes, and other effects are great! The design on the characters are also superb. They made cute heroines look like goddesses. Noting else could be said about the art except that it is good.
Sound (10/10)
Definitely the best part of this anime! The OP and the ED are both dope!I kept playing them over and over again. The OST/BGM they used is so good, and it may be the reason that this anime is hype. I will definitely listen to the OST once it's out.
Character (8/10)
Glenn (mc) is the best in this series. Actually, he is one of my all time favorites now next to Lelouch (Code Geass), Setsuna (Gundam 00), Shiiba Tatsuya, Kazami Yuuji (Grisaia), Kazuma (Konosuba), and Arata (Trinity 7). Glenn is basically a bastard, savage, kinda-tsundere?, easy-going teacher who trolls his students, colleagues, and enemies even in the most serious of circumstances. He never fails to amuse me. On top of that, he gets along with all his students well, especially Shiro Neko. He is not OP, but he is definitely badass. Definitely best MC of the Spring 2017.
Sisti (Main Heroine, or at least that's how I fell) is a classic tsundere who at first despises Glenn because of his attitude. After saving her from being raped, Sisti begins to respect him little by little, learning how to rely on him, helping him when he needs it, and started developing feeling for him (so obvious). For me, she is the best heroine of this series, because every time Glenn is in a pinch, she was always there to help him. She fights the enemy with strong resolve. Even at the time when Glenn was dying, she was the one who stayed with him and resurrected him, with the help of Albert. In short, she is a classic tsundere gone right. Best girl for me. She also has the most favorites in this series with a very large margin compared to Rumia.
Rumia is basically a kind, caring, and selfless girl. The problem with her is the she was always a damsel in distress. Every single time. She can't even fight for herself. If she could just fight even for herself, she would've been a better character.
Re=L, Albert, Celica and the others are great supporting characters with their own special characteristics. Shout out to Harley (Halloween, Harvest, Harem) sensei for always being trolled by Glenn.
Enjoyment (10/10)
As for enjoyment, I enjoyed it to the point that I was literally waiting for new episodes to come out every Tuesday night (GMT 8). And after watching it once, I would watch it again and again especially when the episode really got me going. Best episodes for me were EP 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10. Anyway, I would not mind having a season 2 for this. Actually, TBH, I want a season 2 for this because the ending was not satisfying. Anyway, I enjoyed it a lot!
Overall (10/10)
Overall, the OST, Glenn and Sisti, and the comedy was what got me going for this series. It was really fun and enjoyable. Can't wait for season 2 if there are plans for it. I would recommend this series to people who love badass MCs, magic school genre, and comedy.
10/10 for me.
