Watched the whole show in one go today, which may have helped my rating, because this kind of anime tends to become a drag if you get it in the weekly doses of 20 minutes during the original publishing routine. But binging it was fun, because by binging you're living the moment and don't get to think about the deeper logic and contingency that, well, let's be honest, you don't find in any other isekai anyways...

I am not sure what I enjoyed more: this spoof of a genre that I like, but which has been churning out so many forgettable shows in the ...

Mixed Feelings
If you disregard the fanservice nonsense, which admittedly is rather difficult to do with the way they are pressing their oppai into the viewer's face, it's actually quite an entertaining story.

Luckily, it becomes more balanced in later episodes, up to a point where the fanservice scenes actually go along well with the story and could even be considered important for the development of the whole plot. Sort of High School DxD in its best moments, which means a lot.

After all, with stories like these, you don't relly care about logic and character development. Not that the characters are overly remarkable to begin with. The show ...

Tranquil, witty, not the worst characters around, and a great way to promote the city.

I personally would have liked a little bit more about art, collecting and counterfeits, and less about the romance (the two are obviously made for each other, no need to show them dancing around, and the fact that he's a few years older isn't really shocking to me).

Admittedly, I can understand reviewers who were underwhelmed, as they were expecting some more Sherlock-like criminal cases and drama, although I wonder just how much mystery you can build into a 25 minutes episode.

Nevertheless, I found myself looking forward to another half ...

This is another way of how to tell a story – one long summary. Within 24 episodes, you tell everything, starting with the humble beginnings, where a young and talented mage girl meets a lowly hedge knight and forms a partnership with him, all along to the ultimate end, where they unify all people, become the emperors of the whole world, end the bloody wars, terminate the dark forces, and take an early retirement to withdraw to their chateau and become whine makers. A lot of story that is, and consequently the story is rushing along much more than anything you would expect from a ...

Toradora! (Anime) add
I came to this show about 10 years after its initial broadcasting, in order to do some more research on the tsundere phenomenon - and I was not disappointed. The Palm Top Tiger is simply one of the most astonishing teens I have ever seen in a TV show, anime or not - a girl who is so unsecure about everything in and around her live that she becomes violent beyond what would be socially acceptable! And yet you feel the sweetness and the longing for a normal life in her. If you are unable to take this wonderful little ball of fury to your ...
