This harem/romance manga starts off in a pretty cliché fashion but I assure you that this manga is a great example of how cliché's can be done well if they are written well.
Once Yuu moves in with the Mikadono sisters it is easy to write this off as another stereotypical harem/romance manga that devolves into the sisters falling for Yuu despite him being so inept at everything (besides cooking). It would have been very easy for the mangaka to make that kind of story but instead, what we get is a very wholesome and unique set of chartecters with their own personal struggles
...
and comedic shortcoming. While the sisters may seem perfect on the surface, we come to learn that they are deeply flawed in their own personal lives with Yuu slowly becoming a pillar in supporting their day to day lives with his positive attitude and caring nature. While Yuu may be inept, his greatest support comes from giving the sisters a sense of family they didn't know they lacked. That is the strongest point of this manga (well that and the extremely cute tomboys). The relationships that develop not only between Yuu and the sisters but also among the sisters themselves was such a joy to read. You just want nothing but the best for each of the sisters and I believe that if a manga can make you feel like you don't know which character you like the best, it is doing something right. I especially loved the art style of the female characters as they felt very distinct and well drawn. I urge anyone whose thinking of giving this manga a try to do so as this is a rare example of a cliché done right.

YOU ALREADY KNOW SON, THEY CANT HANDLE MY BOY ICHIGO WOOOOOOOOO
Story: this season is yet another banger as we all expected, you honestly dont need me to tell you that the action sequences and the story telling is A1. Bleach fans cant be anymore spoiled with how much time, effort, and care has been put in to this arc of Bleach and it fricken deserves it.
Charecters: The gang is back and wiping out those clean ass bankais you already know
Soundtrack: IF YOU WANNA SEE SOME ACTION GOTTA BE THE CENTER OF AT-TRAC-TION
Writing: its okay I guess
10/10

Skip to Loafer offers a very lively cast of characters with wholesome and comical moments throughout the duration of the anime, that quite honestly feel like a breath of fresh air.
The show follows our protagonist, Iwakura Mitsumi, moving to Tokyo from her extremely small town to pursue a higher education to follow her career goals. Watching her adapt to the city lifestyle and develop new friendships are what this show is about, and I must say that this slice of life/romance anime is one of my absolute favorites that I cannot recommend enough to fellow enjoyers of the genre. While watching Skip to
...
loafer I found myself smiling ear to ear with how human and wholesome the character interactions are written in this anime. Mitsumi is a gem of a character whose positive and straightforward personality is something that I believe a lot of people will gravitate to love about in this anime. This is definitely the anime's strongest suit, the characters. The anime does a great job at pacing and really lets you get to know the nuances of each of character's personalities. It is not often we receive such well written characters in this genre of anime. The anime does an amazing job of getting you to care about the developing friendship between the cast of characters as you learn more about their insecurities and fears. In addition successfully not making the characters seem one dimensional.

So far a very promising season
If you enjoyed the first season I believe you will like this second season a lot better as the main duo is really hitting their stride and making great progress as characters. Nagatoro-san does a great job of making you care about the characters and their development. Senpai or Naoto is gaining more confidence in himself and is realizing that if he wants to actually make things work with Nagatoro he needs to be the one to make a change in how he acts. He is going to continue to develop as a character and I can't
...
wait to see how it will all come to fruition. Unlike a certain beta cuck protagonist *cough* *cough* rent a girlfriend. While they both are extremely shy about their true feelings, they both know that they have genuine feelings for one another creating such wholesome and cute moments. There is not much home to write about as if you enjoyed the first season you're not going to be disappointed with this one. GO WATCH IT NOW.

This is one of the most unique soccer animes to date but as good as it is, it drops off in quality in the second half
Blue lock is such a fascinating concept and in addition to its solid writing and story, it is no wonder that it is one of the most popular anime of the season. The very first episode drags you into the world and makes you realize that this anime isn't going to be about friendship and teamwork, this is about becoming the greatest egotistic striker in the world. When we get introduced to our main character, Isagi Yoichi,
...
he isn't some prodigy soccer player. He is actually quite average, but watching him overcome the many trials of blue lock and continuously evolve his soccer skills and his ego is what makes this anime so entertaining to watch. In addition, the animation complements the style of the manga so well. The flame effect around the character's eyes and the aura they emit when they enter the zone just feels so invigorating to watch. This is why it is so disappointing that in the second half of this anime, the animation quality has notably decreased.
I was watching the second half of this anime and I just couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing. The blue flame effect that surrounds isagi when he enters the zone is now replaced with an ugly green aura that doesn't look nearly as good and the character movements feel a lot stiffer than earlier in the season. The set pieces still look great but it is a far cry from what we were getting earlier in the season. The animation is not bad by any means but it is just disappointing to see an anime with such amazing quality diminish later in the season.
Overall
Animation (as of now) - 6/10
Story - 9/10
Writing - 9/10
Characters - 8/10

Don't get me wrong this anime is nothing special but you may find it enjoyable in some aspects.
This is not something I would recommend to any of my friends or anyone who is big into anime as this is just something that is very average and falls into the many cliches that plague the rom-com genre. Although If you can get behind an interesting enough development of a romance between the two main leads, it's enough to watch. It will definitely be a hit or a miss with people.
Let me start out with the positives, the main heroine is actually quite likable
...
as the way her character is written comes off as very human although in a cliche fashion at times. She does care about the protagonist's feelings and she can be extremely cute at times. She is definitely the highlight of the show. While the protagonist is your stereotypical shy guy that can't speak his true emotion at times he does have common sense and knows when to take action when it is needed. The animation does a good job as well as it doesn't feel low-budget in any way.
The negatives, oh man like I said this is a very average anime. It is your very stereotypical rom-com trash but I guess it can be appealing in that way as well. The premise of this show is so unbelievably stupid that you just gotta laugh at the sheer senselessness of this anime. The school and students deeply care about this course like their futures are ruined if they don't pass this and it just comes off as really dumb. The main character is so wish-washy with the two main love interests that it can really be annoying to watch.
Overall if you can get past the stupidness of the show and laugh at it and enjoy it for what it is watch it if you are rom-com trash like me :)

Definitely a solid soccer anime to watch if you have been craving one
I found the story to be very compelling with writing that really added to Aoi's character development. Aoi starts out as a very egotistical character that doesn't even understand the very basics of soccer. Throughout the duration of the anime, Aoi starts to realize all of his shortcomings which he desperately works hard to improve upon. Aoi's tenacity and willpower to never give up even in the face of unwinnable odds are what draw me to love his character. Aoi is the definition of "it's not over until it's
...
over" and when you see him pull off something badass you can't help but feel hyped. The other characters in this anime are very likable as well with some side characters definitely being more focused on than others. Regardless, you really do care about the team succeeding and seeing them develop a synergy to win games. The chemistry between Hana and Aoi was definitely a highlight within this show as well.
As for the animation, this is where I found some of the problems within this show. None of it was blatantly bad but you can definitely notice the reduction in quality in some episodes. You can tell that most of their budget went into their set-piece scenes which were great as they really amplified the emotion you felt seeing the fruition of Aoi and the team's hard work. Overall a very enjoyable anime and excited to see where the second season will take us.

(EDIT FINISHED)
Bland, this season is just bland
I'm not gonna dwell long on this anime. Average, through and through the characters, the writing, and the story are just so unbelievably bland. Later in the season, it focuses more on the Uzaki family and they are somewhat interesting but they are not enough of a reason to watch the show. The main duo barely progresses as characters if at all, I can't recall ONE character developing moment. They are quite literally the same characters from the end of the first season. Whereas the first season introduced you to the characters and
...
while the first season was nothing impressive, at least it got you to enjoy the dynamic somewhat between the main duo. This season the writing is just so forgettable, even the ending was extremely disappointing, although I can't say I wasn't surprised. The side characters in this anime sum up my feelings about this show perfectly, they get irritated at the pure immaturity and inaction of the main duo. Comedy is subjective so you may find it funny but I just didn't find anything about this show fun to watch. Yeah, that is it, not very passionate about this.
