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.

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 Deat...
