Umamusume: Cinderella Gray

Belno Light is a new student at Kasamatsu Tracen Academy. Kasamatsu Academy is known for training Horse Girls or Umamusume for regional races. While there are national races, no umamusume from Kasamatsu has ever had the skill to make it there. Belno is convinced that she is going to work hard and do well in the races. Then she meets Oguri Cap, an umamusume who stands out in more ways than one. Rather than showing up to class in the schools uniform, she shows up in a jersey covered in dirt. This along with her attitude that seems almost absentminded gets her new classmates attention. The Other Umamusume try and bully her by kicking her out of her room, and untying her shoelaces before a race to make Oguri have a late start. However, she still manages to make second place in her first race in Kasamatsu. This gets the attention of Jo Kitahara who is a regional trainer. He takes both Oguri Cap and Belno Light, and trains them to participate in his dream of winning the Tokai Derby.

Umamusume: Cinderella Gray was way better than I was expecting. I wasn't planning on watching this originally, but I decided to jump in after seeing a post on Instagram threads about it. Cinderella Gray is a wholesome story with clean language, and good visuals. If you are into sports type anime, I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

High School DxD New Episode 13

Asia goes after a monster, and after it steals her underwear the house of Gremory appears to take it down, only to be beaten to the punch by Irina. Irina tells everyone that she is after the master of the monster. The group then learns that the one behind the attacks is the great sage. They arrive to his location and learn that he was actually a previous member of the church which is part of why Irina was sent to take him down. The great sage then uses his magic to turn himself into underwear so that he can achieve his dream of being worn by women. However, his spell goes out of control. Will Irina and everyone else be able to take him down?

This OVA kind of reminded me of Heaven's Lost Property. It was just what you would expect from a High School DxD OVA. There was an excessive amount of fan service. This episode doesn't appear to be important to the story, so its fine to skip it if you want. But it might be fun if you have enjoyed both season 1 & season 2 of High School DxD so far.

High School DxD NEW (Season 2)

After the fight with Riser and Issei breaking off Rias's wedding, his power remains out of control. While Asia was able to heal his body somewhat, he still needs Akeno to help him get his power under control. Because the room for the Occult club is being cleaned, the group's meeting is held at Issei's house. After his mom brings photo books of Issei as a child, Yuuto sees a picture of Issei next to a Holy Sword, a weapon that is lethal to demons. After that Yuuto starts spacing out more and more which makes a mission to take down a stray demon even harder. Yuuto eventually leaves the house of Gremory, but Issei won't let him get away without learning the full story and doing his best to resolve the problem troubling Yuuto.

High School DxD New was pretty fun to watch. I'm actually enjoying it more than I thought I would. It reminds me of a lot of different anime's. The transformations remind me of Date A Live, The story reminds me of Testament of Sister new devil, and the fan service feels similar to To Love Ru. There was a lot of bath scenes, as well as a pool scene. If you liked Season 1 I would definitely suggest giving Season 2 a try.

High School DxD Specials

The Occult Research Club decides to take a short trip to the beach. Akeno helps Issei train both mentally and magically. Meanwhile Koneko drinks tea that Rias put a spell on, which changes her personality. Issei learns how to use his new dress-break ability and is eager to give Akeno and Rias a demonstration. After losing a competition the Student Council makes Udon for the Occult Research Club. Asia Wants to act more like a demon after seeing the way Issei acts at school. However, her good nature prevents her from making any drastic changes.

These Specials aren't part of the main story, but they were fun to watch. I especially enjoyed Koneko adopting a perverted personality which contradicts her usual serious attitude. theres fan service in every episode such as swimsuits, a shower scene, panty shots, and exploding clothes. But its kind of expected not just because its High School DxD, but because it's a Special. OVA's and Specials typically have fan service even for non ecchi shows. If you enjoyed Season 1 you might give the season 1 specials a try.

High School DxD OVA

Issei, Koneko, Yuuto, Akeno, Asia, and Rias are all asked to take down a stray Demon. Once they corner him he gives up without a fight. However, before he gets sent back to the Demon Realm, he says that all of his preparations have been completed. Issei finds out the next day that girls from his school have been mysteriously disappearing. They then find out that a chimera has been set loose and is sucking the life force out of all the girls that have disappeared. With all the power that its gained, will the group be able to take it down?

High School DxD OVA was pretty fun to watch. The fights kind of remind me of Date A Live. Though because there were only two episodes you don't really get to see Issei go all out, like he does in Season 1. There was plenty of fan service mainly in the form of tentacles this time. If you enjoyed High School DxD Season 1 you might enjoy the OVA as well. 

Senpai is an Otokonoko Movie: Sunshine After the Rain

Saki Aoi is preparing for exams, so she asks Makoto and Ryuuji for help. Meanwhile both her dad and her mom ask her to stay with them. Unfortunately both know that their circumstances would make it hard to move. Saki's dad lives in America and Saki's mom has only just sprung back into her life. Can Saki untangle her thoughts and feelings and do what she feels to be right?

I really liked the movie because it fixed all of the things that I wish had been done in Season 1. It also didn't feel totally boring. The movie was wholesome. There was no swearing and no fan service. I also forgot how funny Saki is and how enjoyable she is to watch. She was the reason that I didn't drop the series. So to have the movie focus on her was what really saved it in my opinion. If you have watched Senpai is an Otokonoko Season 1, I would definitely suggest giving the movie a try. 

High School DxD

Issei Hyodo was your average high school student who dreamed of having a harem. While he attends an academy that had previously been only for girls but recently turned coed the majority of the girls knew about his nature and did their best to avoid him and his friends. One day a girl named Yuma asks to be his girlfriend. He goes on a date and after they are done she stabs him through the chest. On the verge of death he summons Rias Gremory, a high class devil, and president of the academy's occult research club. She decides to save him and make him her servant turning him into a devil. Now Issei must learn to control his new powers as angels, fallen angels, and devils seek his life.  

High School DXD was actually a lot better than I was expecting. While it is more ecchi than other shows it had far less fan service than people make it seem like. If you compare it to things like redo of healer, testament of sister new devil, to love ru, etc. It's almost wholesome by comparison. There is a lot of panty shots and girls clothes randomly exploding, but I enjoyed the story. I know this isn't for everyone but if you are a fan of the ecchi genre it might be worth a try.

Cooking with Valkyries Season 2

To celebrate the upcoming spring, Sakura makes Sakura Sake which takes two months to complete so it needs to be started in the winter to be ready by the time the Sakura flowers bloom. She then shares it with Kallen as they view the sakura petals fall.

Cooking with Valkyries Season 2 was okay. The food looked good, but there wasn't much of a story. If you want something like that I would suggest watching Campfire Cooking in Another World or Welcome to the Outcast's Restaurant. The fun thing about Cooking with Valkyries is they leave you the recipe for the food they make at the end of each episode. The entire anime is clean both in language and visually. If you are a fan of cooking anime, it may be worth a try.

Saga of Tanya the Evil: Operation Desert Pasta

While stationed in the desert, the 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion is sent a large shipment of noodles as a gift from strategic headquarters. However, no water, sauce or spices are provided along with it. Tanya initiates Operation Desert Pasta where her Battalion raids the supplies of different encampments of the enemy to create the best meal they possibly can.

While this technically takes place before the movie it was listed after on Crunchyroll. Though it clears up what Tanya and her group were doing at the beginning of the movie. There is a swear word here and there, but all the characters dress modestly. If you like the rest of the series I would suggest giving this special episode a watch. 

Saga of Tanya the Evil - the Movie -

Tanya Degurechaff and the other members of the 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion have just finished their battle in the desert where they destroyed the enemies headquarters. After this she believes that her and her battalion will get time off, however, they are immediately sent to a snowy area in the North. in an attempt to distract the enemy and have them recall their soldiers she attacks Russia's capital city moscow. Rather than completely destroying it her team hits all of the areas that hold politcal significance. Unfortunately this act only made more enemies for the empire. Will Tanya be able to survive?

Saga of Tanya the Evil -The Movie- was very interesting to me. I'm glad that it was a continuation of the story, rather than one of those movies that just summarizes what happened in season 1. If you enjoyed The Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 1, I would definitely suggest giving the movie a try as well. 

Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online Season 2

LLENN is back doing her third Squad Jam. This time she is teaming up with Pitohui rather than fighting against her. The new course has some elements that completely change the game such as the board slowly shrinking by holding it on an island that is being consumed by the water. This forces the teams to move if they don't want to die. Though from the start there are mysteries and hidden rules that won't be revealed till the end. Will LLENN and her friends be able to Survive?

Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online Season 2 was way better than I was expecting. I liked how they didn't focus on just LLENN's team and showed how things were going for the other teams as well. There are a few scenes where you see the main Goushi Asougi shirtless, as well as some swearing here and there. However, I would definitely still suggest it, especially if you enjoyed season 1.

New Saga

Kyle Leonard lived through a time where most of humanity had been wiped out by demons. After him and a few others remained they stormed the Demon Lords Castle. After running into powerful enemies Kyle sees a mysterious crystal. Half dead from fighting demons he crawls over and grabs it. The crystal takes him four years into the past before his friends and family had been slaughtered. With knowledge of the future he plans to do everything in his power to prevent the demons from attacking again and taking over the world. 

I was kind of expecting this to be like other anime where the character travels to the past like Redo of Healer, Tearmoon Empire, or a returners magic should be special. While it does bear a resemblance to redo of healer because both are sent back in time by a crystal having to do with the demon king, thats about all the similarity it has. It does bear a slight resemblance to a returners magic should be special in that both main characters meet people from their past who had already died in the prior timeline. Besides that it kind of felt like another fantasy anime. Though it doesn't follow the typical storyline of the main character going to an adventurers guild and rising the ranks super fast thanks to their strength. Since Kyle has knowledge of the future he knows that the princess will be attacked in the future and saves her. Thanks to this act he is immediately made a hero by the king. While there is a hot springs scene, I would still suggest giving it a watch since it is mostly clean.

Secrets of the Silent Witch

Monica Everett is known as the Silent Witch, and is the youngest member of the Seven Sages. These seven wizards are the most powerful wizards and witches in the country, and each specializes in a different type of magic. Due to her shyness, Monica learned to cast magic without chanting. However she has shut herself away in a hut in the mountains, until another one of the Seven Sages comes to her with an offer to protect the second prince of the kingdom without him figuring out her real identity. Unable to say no, Monica accepts the job. She pretends to be the sister of Isabelle Norton, the daughter of the lord of a land she had recently saved from a dragon attack. Will Monica be able to come out of her shell so that she can hide amongst the magic academy students, while also protecting the prince?

Secrets of the Silent Witch was super good. It had a similar feel to other magic academy anime like The Gorilla God's Go-to Girl and My Next Life as the Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom. All the characters are lovable in my opinion. Everybody dresses modestly and the language is clean.  It has a real relaxing feel to it, so it is something I would definitely suggest watching. 

DAN DA DAN Season 2

Momo, Jiji, and Okarun arrive at Jiji's old house which supposedly is haunted. However, when Momo tries to exorcise it she doesn't sense the presence of any yokai. That is until she decides to take a dip in the hot springs. five men go after her while she is separated from the boys. Meanwhile, Jiji and Okarun have become trapped inside of Jiji's old family home. What they didn't know is that Jiji's house has been used as a place to offer sacrifices to a monster for centuries. The grudges and resentment of those who got sacrificed lingered there and drew an incredible opponent beneath the property, Evil Eye. Will the group be able to handle all the chaos that comes their way?

DAN DA DAN Season 2 was pretty good. Jiji was annoying as heck and made me cringe more times than I can count. But once Aira showed up I began to enjoy the show a lot more. Visually Dan Da Dan Season 2 was a lot cleaner than Season 1 except for the Hot spring Scenes.  If you enjoyed Season 1 I would suggest giving season 2 a try. While the beginning was hard to watch it ended with me wanting more.

SHOSHIMIN: How to become Ordinary Season 2

After Jougoro Kobato and Yuki Osanai decide to start seeing other people, Jougaro starts dating Tokiko Nakamaru and Yuki starts dating Takahiko Urino. Takahiko decides to join the school newspaper and wishes that they could start writing about non school topics. When another member suggests that they open up a new column to write about a local fundraiser, Takahiko believes it's his chance to make a difference. So he starts writing about a series of arsons that have been happening in Kiba. While the newspaper does start to gain popularity, Jougoro suspects that there's more to the story than just what Takahiko is writing about and decides to investigate himself. Will everyone come out of things safely?

SHOSHIMIN: How to become Ordinary Season 2 was a lot different than season 1 was. While the mysteries  are interesting in season 2, I really liked how Season 1 had a lot more mysteries to solve. Shoshimin Season 2 was pretty slow moving for me, though season 1 was like that as well. All of season 2 remained clean both visually and verbally. If you are a fan of mystery anime, I would suggest giving Shoshimin a try. 

My Dress-Up Darling Season 2

When Suzuka tells Marin about a studio she used for one of her cosplays, Marin decides to give the studio a try as well. She asks Wakana Gojo to make her a bunny suit costume for the character Arisa Izayoi from the anime We're the Tsukiyomi Company. After using the studio, she decides to wear it to a halloween party with friends from her class at school. In the middle of Karaoke, Nowa asks them if the two of them are going out. Naturally both are shocked by the sudden quesstion. But Gojo's response to it hurts Marin more than just the question being asked.

My Dress-Up Darling Season 2 was fun to watch. It felt similar to season 1 in that they do different cosplays, go to events, meet new cosplayers, and learn more about different aspects of cosplaying that they didn't know about. The characters are fun to watch and there was less fan service than there was in season 1. There is a bath scene and a shower scene though, as well as clothes with cleavage. If you enjoyed the first season, you should give season 2 a try as well.

I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince so I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability Season 2

After the battle with the Demon Lord Guisarme, Galilea is appointed to be the new Lord of Lordost Island. Hoping that they don't have a repeat of the incident with Lordost being overrun by demons, the assassins guild wonders what they could use to prevent it. Grim, as a demon himself, suggests that they learn Divine Sorcery. However, in order to learn it they will have to join the church and work there until they do enough to be acknowledged by the heavens. Will Lloyd be able to find a way to learn divine sorcery and protect his friends?

I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince so I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability Season 2 was a lot more fun to watch than I imagined it would be. While I do love a good fantasy story, there is a lot of conflicting reviews about this anime online. But it was well worth the watch. The anime is clean except for a scene in the very last episode where all the girls and Lloyd go to a hot spring together. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.  

Nukitashi THE ANIMATION

Junnosuke Tachibana grew up on Seiran Isand, and after years away is finally returning with his little sister. However, the Island has been overrun with Lewdism, so much so that everywhere you look is revolved around immorality. Places like the amusement park "Lewd Land" and nudist beaches are whats advertised for people incoming to the island. A law has been passed that requires you to participate in immoral behavior and those who don't are forced into it by the FS who are the future leaders of Seiran Island. After running away from his classmates with a girl named Nanase Katagiri, Junnosuke Tachibana comes across an underground bunker where he discovers a way to fight back against Lewdism. Will he be able to save those like him who want a relationship based on love and not just sex?

Nukitashi THE ANIMATION is an anime I would suggest avoiding if you don't like Ecchi anime. Even if you do like Ecchi anime this anime goes a bit too far seeing as its uncensored. In some ways this is worse than anime like Testament of Sister New Devil and Redo of Healer because the inappropriate scenes are a lot more frequent. In the end the decision is ultimately up to you. 

Uglymug, Epicfighter

Shigeru Yoshioka was an ugly person in his past life who always tried to make people smile. However, after being framed with false accusations of sexual assault he lost everything. After giving up hope, a screen appeared in his room asking if he would like a new start on life. He agrees and writes in a special notes section that he would like to remain ugly, get hurt by touching girls, and things that he touches will be reduced to 1/10,000. He is then transported to another world along with two girls named Seika and Reese, and a man named Seiji. All of them came from earth to live a new life. Will their second chance go how they expect it to?

Uglymug, Epicfighter was better than I was expecting. It feels similar to your average isekai at first, however, the amount of people who come from another world far surpass any isekai ive seen except for maybe The Executioner and her way of life. Each character has their own backstory which gives the story a lot more depth than your average isekai in my opinion. The anime is mostly clean, but there is a shower scene as well as some swearing. I would definitely suggest giving this one a try if you like Isekai anime.

Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter

Allen who is known as "The Brain of the Lady of the Sword" fails his test to become a court sorcerer. However, once the school hears about it, he gets another offer to become a private tutor. After accepting he learns that he will be teaching Tina Howard, one of the four ducal houses daughters. While her family is known to have powerful magic, she herself is unable to cast even the simplest of spells. Many magicians have tried to find out why she cant use magic despite having a huge amount of mana, but nobody has been able to solve it. Will Allen have what it takes to get Tina accepted into The Royal Magic Academy?

Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter was a fun anime. It isn't the greatest fantasy anime you'll watch, but all the characters are entertaining. It has a similar feel to other magic academy anime. However, the way they use magic in this world feels very unique to me. Most fantasy anime will use the same spells, but each spell feels unique in this anime. It is pretty clean both in language and visually. There is a Hot Spring episode though. If you like fantasy anime, I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

SAKAMOTO DAYS Part 2

Four Serial Killers have been let out of prison by Slur. Their targets are Taro Sakamoto and the other members of the Order. These four Death Row Convicts have killed hundreds already. Do They have what it takes to kill Japan's most skilled Hit Men?

SAKAMOTO DAYS PART 2 was really good. It kind of reminded me of Assassination Classroom. Specifically the latter half of the season. I liked how they talked about Taro Sakamoto's past quite a bit. If you enjoyed the first part of SAKAMOTO DAYS I would definitely suggest watching the second cour of season 1 as well. Part 2 remains clean visually, however, there is some swearing hear and there.

Clevatess

Alicia has wanted to become a hero ever since she was little. It all started because the maps her kingdom uses have the majority of the paper black. This is because the areas not colored in are guarded by dark beasts of immense power. To expand the human world she desired to become acknowledged as a hero by the king of Hiden. After years of training she finally achieves her dream and travels to fight the king of Luna Mountain, Clevatess along with twelve other heroes. However, they greatly underestimated Clevatess's power and died quickly. After being provoked Clevatess travels to the Kingdom of Hiden and destroys the Castle along with everyone in it. Right before he leaves a dying woman asks Clevatess to raise the child she's holding, rather than giving up completely on humanity. Clevatess accepts her request and takes the baby back to his mountain. He resurrects Alicia to help him. While she is happy to be back alive she can no longer go against Clevatess because of the dark Ichor that brought her back to life. How will she survive in this new life she's been given? 

Clevatess was weird for the first few episodes, but after that it got really good. I really liked how it felt different from current fantasy anime. The art style in particular made it really stand out to me. While it has a darker feel than most fantasy anime, it still felt fun to watch. Both the language and the visuals are clean. I think the anime is definitely worth the watch.

Sword of the Demon Hunter: Kijin Gentosho

After seeing his sister Suzune treated harshly by his father, Jinta takes her and runs away. They come to a little village called Kadono that is known for its blacksmithing. A Sentinal takes in Suzune and Jinta and trains Jinta in Swordsmanship. Life seems peaceful until Suzune hears word that despite having feelings for her brother the Sentinals daughter agrees to marry someone else for the village's sake. Demons invade the village of Kadono and both Suzune and Jinta are turned into Demons while The Sentinal's Daughter, Shirayuki is murdered along with her future husband. Jinta leaves the village and plans to go on a journey to get stronger so that one day he can face his sister and resolve things.  

Sword of the Demon Hunter: Jijin Gentosho was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. While it first appears to be a revenge story, it turns into a mystery anime kind of like The Apothecary Diaries. While the two stories are completely different the structure of the anime's feels the same. The anime is clean both visually and with the language it uses. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity

Chidori High School is a High School that is typically your last choice when choosing a school. It has a large gathering of students who fall behind more often than your average student. Next to Chidori is Kikyo High School. Kikyo is a school for prim and proper girls who always look down on chidori students as if they are trash. Rintaro Tsumugi is no different. After getting contacted by his mom one day he comes home to help at his family's bakery rather than hanging out with his friends. It is there he meets Kaoruko Waguri. Kaoruko offers to buy him a cake to talk with him. The next day Rintaro finds out that Kaoruko is a student at Kikyo High School. How will this affect their relationship going forward?

The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity was pretty fun to watch. While I did enjoy it, I think that other people over exaggerated how good it was. I was told that it was about the best romance anime ever. While that may be true for some, it didn't have as big of an impact on me as some other romances like Aharen-san wa Hakarenai and Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms. The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity is clean both visually and with the language it uses. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra: World Conquest Starts with the Civilization of Ruin

Takuto Ira, the strongest player in the RPG Eternal Nations is reincarnated into a world that resembles the game. However, rather than start everything from scratch, he finds that there is a group of Dark Elves living in his forest. To avoid problems later down the road, he asks them to become part of the country that he is going to build, in exchange their alignment will go from Neutral to Evil. The Elves having been kicked out of all the places they lived before agree to become citizens of his new country, Mynoghra.

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra is probably the anime I enjoyed the most this season. It has a similar feeling to Overlord at the start, but feels like its own anime after you get a few episodes in. There is some swearing in it, but visually it remains clean. If you enjoy isekai anime that focuses on building your territory like Farming Life in Another World, I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

Puniru is a Kawaii Slime Season 2

Puniru travels around the world in order to have her cuteness acknowledged. Once she achieves her goal she comes back in a box to Kotaro's house. However, she has transformed so much that she doesn't remember what she used to look like. Whats worse is now she is tiny because slime dripped out of the box causing her to duplicate herself with each piece assuming a new identity. Thanks to Kotaro's friends she is able to find all the slime from her original body and become whole again.

Puniru is a Kawaii Slime Season 2 was interesting. It has the same feeling that you get in season 1, However, the addition of a character named Gelee gives the anime a new twist. Gelee is a delusional Ai robot that gained sentience using a piece of Puniru's slime body. She's a bit delusional and believes that Kotaro is the perfect man. The anime is clean both visually and with the language that's used. If you enjoyed Puniru is a Kawaii Slime Season 1, I think you should give Season 2 a try as well.

Scooped Up by an S-Rank Adventurer!

Lloyd grew up being trained by The Great Sage Merlin. Though having no other reference, he believed that Merlin's power was average and he just fell short by comparison. After leaving the forest where he was living with Merlin, he joined The Hero's Party. However, the hero didn't notice how effective Lloyd's magic was and kicked him out for lacking power. Right when he was looking for a new party to join, a swordswoman named Yui invites him to join her party. This group not only ended up being irreplaceable friends to Lloyd, but people who would help him to improve as a person more than anybody had before.

Scooped Up by an S-Rank Adventurer! was exactly what you would expect from a fantasy anime. Lloyd is one of those characters that is completely unaware how powerful he is despite it being completely obvious that he surpasses most adventurers in power. you see this same trope in anime's like I Parry Everything, The Old Newbie Adventurer, and From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman. While the majority of the anime remains clean, there is a scene where Yui and Silica are seen bathing in a lake right before getting attacked by monsters. If you like fantasy anime I would suggest giving this one a try.

The Water Magician

Ryo Mihara is reincarnated to another world where his only wish is to live a quiet life. So, he is sent into a forest with a few months of food and the ability to use water magic. While he starts with almost no power, he quickly becomes more skilled the more he practices. He even meets a dullahan who teaches him how to use a sword. a little while later a ship crashes near the forest where Ryo is living. That's when he saves an adventurer named Abel. While Abel questions Ryo's origins, he teaches him about different things about the world, and even takes him on a journey to a town named Lune. Together they defeat hordes of monsters and use their mana crystals to fund Ryo's new life as an Adventurer.

The Water Magician was pretty good, though there were parts that felt slow to me. I also was disappointed with the ending. The fight between two powerful magicians could have been absolutely amazing, but instead it was pretty disappointing. I think that The Water Magician had the potential to be a lot better than it was. However, I do believe it's worth watching if you enjoy isekai anime. 

The Shy Hero and the Assassin Princesses

The Hero Toto has been wanting to become an adventurer for a long time. however, he's too shy to ask anyone to join his party. So when Ciel, Anemone, and Goa ask to join his party, his dream finally starts to feel real. What Toto doesn't know is that each one of them has been tasked with killing him. Will he be able to survive the attempts on his life?

The Shy Hero and the Assassin Princesses was way better than I was expecting it to be. Each character is fun to watch, and it is cool to see a fantasy main character that isn't automatically perfect at everything he does. I also think its cool that the hero wants to improve himself. The anime is mostly clean except for a shower scene and a beach episode. If you like fantasy anime I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

Betrothed to My Sister's Ex

Marie Shadaran is the daughter of a Baron. However, she is treated more like a servant rather than a noble. Even though Marie has spent her entire life being treated poorly, she looked forward to her birthday in hopes that her parents would celebrate her. However, the party the Shadaran's had was centered on Marie's older sister Anastasia. So Marie spent the night in the Garden where she met a Count named Kyros Granado. They seemed to get along right away, but once Marie learned that he was here for the birthday party, she tells Kyros that her sister was inside. Kyros decides to send a letter expressing his love of Marie, but since neither sister gave their name he wrote his offer of Marriage to Anastasia by accident. After Anastasia had traveled to meet the Count about the marriage word came to the Shadaran House that Anastasia had died on her way to the Count's Manor. So Baron Shadaran sends Marie instead.

Betrothed to My Sister's Ex was far better than I was expecting. The name made me hesitant to watch it, but it turned out to be one of my favorite anime's of the season. The entire anime is clean except for a bath scene in the first or second episode. If you like fantasy/romance anime I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

Welcome to the Outcast's Restaurant!

After getting kicked out of the world's strongest adventuring party, Dennis decides to open his own restaurant. While he is buying supplies he finds a young girl who reminds him of how he was when he was a child. After seeing her, he decides to make her his new poster girl for his restaurant. Now that everything is set up Dennis has almost no money left, and the first customer who visits also has no money. Will the Adventurer's Restaurant be able to survive?

Welcome to the Outcast's Restaurnat was far better than I was expecting. I was expecting it to be similar to Restaurant to Another World, but it is so much better. It has the perfect mix of food and adventuring. It remains mostly clean, though there is a bath and shower scene. If you like anime like Campfire cooking in Another World, I would give Welcome to the Outcast's Restaurant a try. 

Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon Season 2

Its summer in the Clearflow Lake Stratum, and while everything appears peaceful, a meeting has been called for all the Stratum Directors. Director Bear invites Lammis, Boxxo, and Hulemy to join the meeting on the Dead's Lament Stratum. The meeting is regarding the attack of the Netherlord which nearly killed Hulemy and Shui.The Directors decide that the best option is to attack the Netherlord after gathering the best hunters from each Stratum. But will things actually work out like they planned?

Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon Season 2 was pretty fun to watch. There were a lot of twists that I wasn't expecting. I really enjoyed getting to learn about more stratums that weren't shown in Season 1. I also enjoyed the new characters that were introduced like Kikoyu and Hevee. The entire season is clean both in language and visually. If you enjoyed Season 1, I would definitely suggest giving Season 2 a try.

Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It r=1-sinθ (Season 2)

After finding out that thier results for the Oxytocin experiment aren't what they expected, the Ikeda lab visits the biology department where they meet Suiu Fujiwara and Chris Floret. Suiu happens to be well versed in analyzing dna samples, so they ask this new couple for help in their research on what the base conditions for love are. Chris and Suiu are happy to participate, but when Ayame and Shinya see that there is a huge gap between Chris and Suiu's verses their own Oxytocin Levels they start to question if what they feel for each other really is love.

Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It Season 2 wasn't as great as season 1, but it was still fun to watch.  New characters are introduced in this season which make the story become more interesting. Its fun to see more of the college students lives. I particularly enjoyed the episode where Ayame and Shinya follow Kanade and Naoya on their date along with ten other couples for research purposes. The season remains mostly clean, though there are a few scenes where Suiu wears revealing clothes. If you liked Season 1, I would definitely suggest giving Season 2 a try.

Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It

When Masters Degree student Ayame Himuro confesses her love to her colleague Shinya Yukimura, he asks her to scientifically prove that she loves him. The both of them then begin a journey to discover what love is, and if there is a common link in every relationship. Realizing they can't do this on their own, they involve the other members of their lab in their study. Together each one of them tries to help Ayame and Shinya using things like shojo manga, dating simulators, and common practices to discover new ways that love can be expressed.

Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It was way better than I was expecting. I don't typically watch anime with adult characters, so I had my expectations set pretty low. However, I found the mix of love and science super fun to watch. While there is a beach episode, I would suggest this to any romance anime fan. It was definitely worth the watch. 

LOVE FLOPS

Asahi Kashiwagi wakes up one day and hears a fortune telller tell him that he will have many interesting encounters that day. He isn't convinced and continues on with his day. However, one by one things start to turn out just as the fortune teller had foretold. He runs into five girls who all transfer to his same school. After the school day is done he goes home to find out that the five girls are actually moving in with him, and it was all arranged for him by his father who tells him that these five are potential partners for him. While Asahi doesn't want to accept this situation, he lets the girls stay with him.

LOVE FLOPS was an interesting anime. While it wasn't my favorite, I still enjoyed it. It kind of felt like somebody tried to copy Date A Live but failed to capture what truly makes Date A Live great. It honestly reminded me of a lot of different anime's. It reminded me of ones like Sword Art Online, Date A Live, Nakaimo, Infinite Stratos,  and Liar, Liar. In other words it was a harem anime that had a unique twist to it. There is some swearing, and since it is an ecchi anime, there is a bath scene, a hot spring episode, and a beach episode. If you don't mind the ecchi genre, I think you should give it a try.

Wistoria: Wand and Sword

In a school full of magic students, Will Serfort is the only student with no magic ability. Thanks to this he is seen as inferior by almost everyone. However, when Will uses a sword he is able to cut through magic and defeat high level monsters all on his own. His ultimate goal is to join his childhood friend, Elfie, at the tower. The tower is where all the most talented mages reside. Is it possible that Will's skill with a sword will be enough to get to him to the pinnacle of magic?

Wistoria: Wand and Sword was pretty fun to watch. It has a similar feel to Mashle: Magic and Muscles and Reign of the Seven Spellblades. While it was written by the same author as Is It Wrong to Try and Pick Up Girls in the Dungeon, I didn't feel like the beginning was as captivating. The last four episodes were just as good, as the best fight scenes in Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in the Dungeon though. Wistoria: Wand and Sword doesn't have any fan service, nor does it contain any swearing. Everyone does call Will mean names though. Anyway, I would suggest giving it a try.

The Shiunji Family Children

The Shiunji family Children consist of Banri, Seiha, Arata, Ouka, Minami, Shion, and Kotono. All of them had grown up together believing they were family. However, on Kotono's 15th Birthday their father tells them that all seven of them are actually adopted. This doesn't change much, except that they have the ability to date each other now. While each sibling deals with the news in their own way, Kotono couldn't be happier. Previously she had confessed her feelings to her brother Arata, but it was brushed off as being the confusion of a child. But will this news actually change the relationships that these siblings have built up their entire lives?

I'm not going to lie, I was a little disappointed with The Shiunji Family Children. I was hoping for a sibling romance. While I won't say that the anime is devoid of romance, it was more like each sibling trying to figure out how they felt about the news. It did get better near the end. Episode 11 and 12 make it look like romance between the siblings might actually happen. The disappointing thing is that the anime ends without any clues as to how it will turn out. If you enjoy sibling romance anime, I would suggest giving The Shiunji Family Children a try.

My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! Movie

One day while Catarina is riding in her carriage with her maid, Anne, her dog jumps out and runs to what looks like some abandoned ruins. While Catarina is unable to find her dog, spot, she does find a small bird who appears out of thin air. She names him Piyo and has him accompany her. After returning to the carriage, Anne and Catarina see a caravan passing by and decide to visit it. There she meets a man named Aaqil who is able to understand animals. This fascinated Catarina and she decided to come watch their show with her friends, Mary, Sophia, and Maria.

My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! Movie was actually pretty fun to watch. What was really nice was I didn't feel like I needed to rewatch the show to understand what was going on. I really enjoyed the new cast of side characters. It kind of reminded me of Black Butler: Book of Circus a little bit. The language is clean and the characters all dress modestly. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

SHIROHIYO - Reincarnated as a Neglected Noble: Raising My Baby Brother With Memories From My Past Life

Ageha Kikunoi is a 5 year old who up until recently believed that everything would go his way if he threw a temper tantrum. Though after he recalls the memories of his previous life in Japan, he is humbled. In order to apolagize to the many employees he's wronged, he asks each of them to teach him their craft. So at 5 years old Ageha becomes skilled in Sewing, cooking, gardening, and cleaning. He quickly realizes that there is no one in this world who loves him, and the only reason his maids, chef, tutor, and gardener stick around is because his parents are paying them.  Things start to change after Ageha's Father introduces him to Regulus. Regulus is Ageha's half brother who was born between Ageha's father and another woman. While Ageha's mother is reluctant to take Regulus in, Ageha makes a plan that will allow Regulus to grow up alongside him. Will things really turn out all right though?

I had very low expectations going into SHIROHIYO, because every website I looked at gave it a low rating. While it wasn't terrible, it wasn't all that great either. Though it did get better near the end. After it finished, I kind of hoped that there would be a new season announced. The language is clean, and all the characters dress modestly. Even though it wasn't the best fantasy anime I've seen, I still think people should give it a try. 

From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated!

Kenzaburou Tondabayashi was a 52 year old dad before he died saving a child that was about to be run over by a truck. He was then reincarnated as the villainess of his daughter's favorite video game, Magical Academy: Love and Beasts. While he tries to fulfill his role as the villainess, he ends up befriending the main character, Anna Doll, rather than becoming her enemy. Due to the complete change in Grace Auvergne personality, everyone ends up growing love and respect for her rather than disdain. Little does he know that his wife and daughter are watching him through their screen and helping him in hopes that he will someday return to his previous life on earth.

From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated! feels like it has elements from other villainess anime's. The setup of the show reminds me of Endo and Kobayashi Live: The Latest on Tsundere Villainess Lieselotte. It has the same type of feel when it switches back and forth between the fantasy world and Earth. The dynamic between the student council kind of reminds me of My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom. The relationship between Grace and Anna kind of reminds me of I'm in Love With the Villainess!. So If you are a fan of villainess Anime like I am, I would definitely suggest giving this one a watch. The characters all dress modestly and the series is free of any swear words. It surpassed my expectations with every way possible.
