If you're here for anything other than fanservice, you'll be incredibly disappointed. Also, the fanservice is PG-13, so even if you're here for that, you'll still be somewhat disappointed.
Story: Not good. It's not super surprising for an ecchi to have a mediocre story, but nearly the entire storyline feels like they stole the story arcs from filler episodes of much better shows.
It's a magic story where the author completely forgot to explain how magic works, thus every major event and fight feel completely meaningless. MC wants to be the best, like no one ever was, but no one can tell exactly what being
...
the best means. There's a ranking system, which is never truly explained, yet even the highest ranks are meaningless against plot armor, so they feel completely pointless.
Finally, there are plot holes larger than the size of our universe, even in the first episode. In the first episode, MC is shown to be unable to summon a familiar, then summons a demon girl only he has the perfect mana to summon. Due to being an ecchi, she appears completely naked, and immediately tries to fuck MC. MC, of course, denies her and hands her the only female clothes he has on hand, a fucking *virgin killer sweater* that he just had and perfectly fits the demon girl. After this, the two go to his class and MC shows that he succeeded in summoning, though uses magic to make the demon girl look human. The professor is completely unable to detect magic, and is not at all suspicious how a student that couldn't summon anything just became the first person in history to summon a human. There's many more plot holes, but the first episode is so painfully riddled with them that I just had to note it.
Art: The entirety of the art budget went towards the fanservice scenes. There are way too many fights in this anime, and all of them look awful. The fanservice looks decent, but not great, and the PG-13 rating means you'll never get anything too lewd.
Characters: Generic pussy MC is a generic MC, that due to the laws of ecchi is beloved by every girl in the school, including a generic childhood friend character than confesses episode 1 and he rejects. Also he jumps around from being worthlessly weak to easily defeating people multiple tiers stronger than him due to plot armor.
The previously stated demon girl also keeps wearing the plot convenient virgin killer sweater in almost every scene that she's not naked in (which of course there are an absurd amount of). She's also unbelievably strong, famous for nuking a city when she was a little child. Despite this being hundreds of years ago, due to the fact that magic research doesn't exist in this world, she's still the strongest being on the planet. Between her being overpowered and MC having plot armor, there's not a single fight that truly feels like it has stakes.
There are also way, way too many side characters, and none of them are very interesting.
But is it enjoyable? Not really.
Even with all those issues, it still probably could have been just one of those shows you can turn your brain off and enjoy both the fighting and fanservice scenes. However, there is too much of a focus on the unnecessarily large cast of side characters, and those scenes are so boring that turning your brain off and just looking at them without thinking about what's happening isn't enough to make them watchable.
And finally, and the issue that really turned me away, is the fact that the villains are so terribly written. Every single villain is edgy for the sake of being edgy, kills children for the fun of it, and is inexplicably attracted to one of the two main characters. None of them feel like actual characters rather than just the author deciding "we need a villain fight here so let's just add one". The "twists" that reveal characters to be villains were poorly written to the point that they genuinely couldn't have been more obvious if the author tried.
Overall, it's not very good, and the jumps between a slice-of-life ecchi to children being murdered because the author couldn't think of any other way to show that the villains were evil really didn't help.
Thanks for reading.
