Ao no Hako (Anime) add
Blue Box is a great shounen romance that rewards the patient viewer. It has a nice combination of romance and sports that many will find appealing.


§ Overview

Later, he is surprised that Chinatsu-sempai moves to his home because their respective parents are friends.

'Go! Go! Loser Ranger!' is pretty much a dark anime.


§ Overview

The Monster Army comes out every Sunday, and the rangers called The Dragon Keepers always defeat them. Unknown to the public, it is only a farce. The monsters have long been subjucated because the monster bosses were already killed. They're just there every Sunday as a spectacle.

Tired of this, Fighter D sets out to infiltrate the ranger organisation. He soon finds allies — Suzukiri Yumeko and Sakurama Hibiki — who will help him achieve his goals.

The same points I made in my review for Season 1 also apply to this season: https://myanimelist.net/reviews.php?id=548254

• I rated the light novels as 10, but I can only rate both seasons as a 4. ENGI's adaptation is SHIT. I can only pray that Madhouse readapts this IP in the future and gives it the Frieren treatment it truly deserves.

• Watching the anime alone is a terrible experience, but concurrently watching it and reading the novels is amazing. That's the thing the anime can serve instead of not watching it outright. It's still worth watching because of Tinasha's and Oscar's voice acting.

'Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms' is an interesting romcom, but unfortunately, it has its detractors. Some who have read the manga consider it worse than 'Rent a Girlfriend' because nothing really happens and this is reflected in the negative reviews. I claim that this is the wrong approach. The charm of this anime is rooting for the romance NOT TO HAPPEN.


§ Overview

Kawai Mona has always attracted attention from her groupies. One day, she encounters Kuroiwa Medaka who is not really impressed. Unknown to her, he is training to be a monk, which is why he is not looking for someone to date.

'Promise of Wizard' was a promising anime that, unfortunately, has proved itself unworthy and has broken its promise. It's adapted from a game, and this adaptation leaves so much to be desired.


§ Overview

Masaki Akira finds herself, after entering an elevator, transported to another world. In this world, wizards face the so-called Great Calamity every year and Akira is the great sage.

'I Have a Crush at Work' is a more mature romance anime that has some good aspects but ultimately could be better.


§ On the title

'I Have a Crush at Work' is the official English title and sounds like a cute romance, but it sets up the expectation that someone fancies another at work and the plot is about whether the two will confess their feelings for each other or not. On the contrary, our main couple is already together. It's about trying to hide their relationship from their work colleagues because such office relationships are so much a hassle and subject to unpleasant tittle-tattle.

Its Japanese ...

Zenshuu. (Anime) add
Mixed Feelings
Spoiler
Zenshuu (全修) is an anime that starts out on the wrong foot because it made people expect that it's about the daily life and challenges of an animator, but it turns out to be an isekai.

Whilst zenshuu itself doesn't appear as a word in jisho.org, it is made up of two characters 全修: 全 means 'all' and 修 means 'repair.' If you listen carefully in the final episode, the main character Natsuko utters 'zenshuu-suru' which the subtitles render as 'repair.' If you think about it, the two kanji characters in Zenshu reveal the plot and the end to be pursued. It's a battle between the ...

'I Want to Escape from Princess Lessons' is an anime that seems fun but actually dreadful 1) in its subject matter and 2) its execution.

Duchess Leticia Dorman, aka Letty, is supposed to marry the crown prince Clarke, and she has to endure rigorous lessons on social graces and becoming a princess. She feels trapped and wants to live a carefree life, hence the title.

So much of the criticism for this anime is that Letty feels like she is being robbed of her agency, and her ending up with the prince is like suffering from Stockholm syndrome. That's one way of looking at it, but I'll ...

天使な小生意気 (Tenshi na Konamaiki) or Cheeky Angel is one of those anime I watched on TV back in the day, and I missed some episodes. I decided to rewatch it recently in full, and it still retains its charm. It's basically what it would be like if female Ranma had her own show.


§ Overview

Megumi, unknown to many except her best friend Miki, used to be a boy. He had encountered a magician who gave a book which contains a trickster. He claims that he will grant any wish, and Megumi wishes that he become a man among men, but he instead turns Megumi into a ...

'Okitsura: Fell in Love with an Okinawan Girl, but I Just Wish I Know What She's Saying' or Okitsura for short is a 7 out of 10 anime IF AND ONLY IF 1) you're Japanese or at least a foreigner who is highly proficient in Japanese and might want to learn the Okinawan dialect, 2) a tourist or a would-be resident of Okinawa who wants to learn about Okinawan culture. If you're not either of these, this is ONE OF THE WORST ANIME you can ever watch.


§ Overview

The anime follows Nakamura Teruaki or Teru for short who goes to Okinawa and finds himself falling in ...
