Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian

Masachika Kuze sits next to the schools Ice Princess Alisa Kujo. While she appears to be disapproving of Masachika at first her true feelings come out in Russian. While Masachika pretends not to know what she is saying, he actually learned Russian growing up so he could talk with a girl he met. While he doesn't remember her name, he still wishes to talk to her again. While Alisa doesn't typically like people who slack off she respects Masachika enough that he is allowed to call her by her nickname, Alya. Will their relationship stay platonic or could it turn into something more?

Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feeling in Russian is a fun and different Romance. While it does have the same structure as a lot of other high school romance anime's the whole both characters hiding things about themselves gives it a similar feel to Kaguya-Sama: Love is War. Though thats where the similarity stops. There is a bit more fan service than I was expecting. While there aren't any fan service staples like the beach episode or the hot springs episode, there are some cleavage and panty shots. The anime does swear as well if that is something that bothers you. If some minor fan service is alright with you I would definitely give this one a shot. 

My Deer Friend Nokotan

Torako Koshi has a history of being a delinquent. So since starting high school she has done everything she can to hide it. This includes getting perfect grades, becoming class president, as well as student council president. She has also changed her attitude to appear more kindhearted. However, this act is exposed when she saved a deer girl named Noko Shikanoko, who is hanging from a street light. Torako is then somehow roped into being the president of the deer club where her only purpose is to take care of Noko. Will she be able to handle everything that's being thrown at her at once?

My Deer Friend Nokotan is an anime worthy of awe. I say that like "ahh, what the heck did I just watch?" Every episode incites confusion. Despite it making absolutely no sense, theres something about it that makes you want to know what happens next. However, if you are left in confusion know that the creators intended it to be that way. There are multiple times throughout the anime where it tells you to basically just go along with it. Everybody dresses modestly, and the language is kept clean. Overall, it is worth giving a try, and if you don't like it you can always drop it.

A Whisker Away

Miyo Sasaki is known at school as Muge. It's short for Miss Ultra Gaga Enigmatic. She tries to get the attention of her crush Kento Hinode. However, he isn't at all interested in her. So the obvious solution is to take the form of a cat using a cat mask given to her by a talking cat. But, theres a catch to using it. Once you decide you would rather be a cat than a human you have to give up your human form which is then given to a cat that wants to be human. Life isn't always easy. Will Miyo get Kento to recognize his feelings, or will she be forced to give up her humanity?

A Whisker Away was simultaneously cute and cringey. I think the concept is interesting, and the only other time I have seen this in the romance genre is in My Life as Inukai-San's Dog. However, if you are looking for something cute and wholesome I would definitely go with A Whisker Away. The only cringey part is Muge's attempts at flirting. The movie is clean both in language and visually. Overall, I think it is worth watching. The ending is really good. It left me satisfied, so I wasn't left asking any questions, or wanting a sequel.

A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring

After being killed by a god, Takumi Kayano is sent to the world that he governs. As an apology the wind god grants Takumi a new body along with knowledge about this new world Etelldia. As he is wandering the forest he comes across two kids who seem to have been abandoned. At first they are scared of Takumi, but after he offers them food they warm up to him. Using Takumi's magic and Allen and Elena's strength the three of them make it through the forest and arrive at a town called Shireen. It is there that they become adventurers.

A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring was a super fun anime to watch. While people getting Isekaid and becoming adventurers isn't a new concept,  the characters and world made the anime super fun for me. I absolutely love when there is food related scenes in anime and this one had quite a bit of that as well. Allen and Elena make the anime feel unique since you never see kids become adventurers. While there are young characters like Fran from Reincarnated as a Sword and Mile from Didn't I Say to Make My Abilities Average in the Next Life, both of them are around the age of twelve while Allen and Elena are five. There is no swearing and the anime is clean visually as well. If you like the Isekai genre I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

SHOSHIMIN: How to Become Ordinary

Jogoro Kobato has been obsessed with solving mysteries for as long as he can remember. But after being told that it was annoying those around him he made a goal to become ordinary. Yuki Osanai was in a similar situation and the both of them decided to lean on each other and become ordinary together. However, after getting into high school Jogoro found himself getting into more and more situations where a mystery needed solving. Some people even came directly to him to ask him for help. Will Jogoro and Yuki truly become ordinary?

I went in thinking that Shoshimin: How to Become Ordinary was a romance anime, so I was a little disappointed when I figured out it wasn't. However, I began to enjoy it when I learned it has a truly unique take on the mystery genre. Rather than solving murder mysteries, the mysteries Jogoro Kobato solves are more like puzzles that you might find in your daily life. One example is that the newspaper club had a plate of jelly filled desserts, One of them was supposed to be filled with mustard. Whoever got the mustard filled one would write the next article. However, everyone claimed that their dessert was jelly filled, so what happened to the mustard filled one?  It was these kind of situations that gave Shoshimin its charm. There is no fan service in it, and the language is completely clean. If you like mystery anime I would definitely give it a try. 

A Nobody's Way Up to an Exploration Hero

A few years ago dungeons started popping up in the real world. One of the first people to travel and search it was Captain Katsuragi. This man was a hero to Kaito Takagi who decided to become a dungeon explorer himself. However, he was unable to fight anything stronger than a slime for two years. Then one day he stumbled across a servant card for a valkyrie named Sylphy. This was the first step to making Kaito's dream of becoming a hero a reality. Slowly after that he was able to get stronger when he obtained another card for a Devil named Luceria. Together with these two Kaito became strong enough to delve further into the dungeon. Will Kaito reach his goal of being a hero, and what kind of hero will he be?

A Nobody's Way Up to an Exploration Hero kind of reminds me of solo leveling. While the fights and animation are not on the level of solo leveling, the concept of dungeons appearing in the real world is similar. The anime is mostly clean with the exception of a Hot Springs scene. If you like fantasy anime's with dungeons I would give this one a try.

My Wife Has No Emotion

After living alone for some time Takuma Kosugi decides to get a cooking robot from a second-hand shop. After making a comment about how he wishes that his new robot mina was his wife he wants to know how she sees him. When he finally gets the nerve to ask her how she sees him, Mina responds by saying that she is his wife. Now, their new married life starts. While the relationship is real to Takuma, how will his family react when they find out about this new development in his life?

I'm not going to lie, My Wife Has No Emotion felt pretty weird at first. Though after a few episodes it became a cute romance anime. Their is a Beach episode, as well as a bath scene. Besides that there isn't that much fan service. Seeing as the wife is a robot even the usual tropes didn't seem too ecchi.  This is one of the anime's that I would use the three episode rule to see whether you like it or not.

Bye Bye, Earth

In a world full of animal-human hybrids, Belle Lablac seems to be the only human. Despite being ostracized by the majority of people she is accepted by a few including a man named Sian who acts as her teacher. When word spreads of a monster taking over a villages water source Sian is contacted to help, but rather than go himself he sends Belle in his place. She defeats the monster with ease, However, only a few seem grateful for her help. When she returned and asked Sian why he didn't go himself he tells her he is under a curse that only allows him to teach. Soon after learning this Belle decides to go on a journey, but before she can go she has to pass a series of trials, as well as take on a curse of her own. Will she be able to do whats necessary to find out who she is and where she comes from?

Bye Bye, Earth felt really unique to me. Though at the same time there are elements that felt familiar such as peoples swords holding importance that is similar to having a life of their own. There is a little bit of fan service here and there but it is mainly just various characters showing cleavage. There is also a scene where Belle gets pinned down on a bed, but nothing happens beyond that. If you want a fantasy that is different from your typical adventurer type anime I would give this one a try.

Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop

Cherry is a boy who helps the elderly for his job. These people often go to the mall for various classes such as dance and poetry. One day while he is helping a man named Fujiyama look for his lost record he runs into a girl named smile. This caused them to both drop their phones and switch them by accident. After getting home Smile finally learns what had happened and they reconnect to get their belongings. After that they talk and get to know one another with questions like why Cherry is always wearing headphones or why smile is always wearing a mask. As they grow closer Smile joins Cherry at his job helping the elderly. They are eventually taken to a store by Fujiyama that is completely full of various musical records. Believing that Fujiyama's lost record might be somewhere in the store Smile and Cherry decided to look for it. However, Fujiyama collapses during their search. Will Smile and Cherry be able to find it before its too late?

Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop is not your typical romance anime. While Cherry and Smile do spend time together, it feels like they are almost never alone. Since it also takes place over summer break there aren't any school scenes. The animation is a little weird at the beginning, but you get used to it. The whole anime is completely clean both visually and verbally. So not having to worry about swearing or fan service is a plus. If you want a romance that is quick and feels different I would suggest giving Word's Bubble Up Like Soda Pop a try.

The Strongest Magician in the Demon Lord's Army was a Human

While Ike was born to two humans he was found next to his dead parents as a baby by the master magician Romberg. Romberg was a member of the Demon Lord's Army. With Romberg's help Ike learned how to disguise himself as a demon as well as how to use all the knowledge and magic that Romberg possessed. With his knowledge and prowess, Ike rose to the position of commander of the undying brigade serving under a witch named Cefiro. After overtaking the city of Arsenam over the course of a week Ike finally earned the right to meet the demon lord. As a reward for his efforts, Ike was made ruler over the city of Ivalias. This was an expression of the Demon Lord's trust in Ike since Ivalias is at the forefront of the war between the demons and humans. Rather than kill the humans like most demons would do when taking over a city, Ike made it a goal to create a world where demons and humans can live in harmony. Will Ike be able to achieve his ambition?

The Strongest Magician in the Demon Lord's Army was a Human was a pretty interesting watch. I watched it around four times before the season was finished. There is a little fan service throughout the series but not a lot. there is a scene where Cefiro is in the bath, as well as a scene where she is in a pool. There is some swearing but it wasn't too noticeable. If you like the fantasy genre I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

Gods' Games We Play

After a girl is found trapped in ice, she is brought to the city. They learn that she is a former God by the name of Leoleshea. Her request is for them to bring her the greatest game player this world has to offer and challenge her. After a boy named Fay Theo Philus comes to the city of Ruin they ask him to challenge her. In this world Gods challenge humans to games and those who receive ten wins can have any wish granted. However, if you lose three times you are forbidden from playing again. Leoleshea wishes to ask the gods to restore her status as a goddess. After Fay defeats her she teams up with him so they can pursue their goals together.

 Gods' Games We Play was an interesting anime. It kind of reminded me of No Game No Life and Liar Liar. It is an ecchi anime, so it does have a bath scene, a swimsuit episode, as well as a scene where Fay and Leoleshea walk in on Pearl while she is in her underwear. Overall if you like the type of anime's where the characters become part of the game rather than just playing it, you will probably enjoy this one.

Mr. Villain's Day Off

The main character is known as The General by his subordinates in admiration of his power. The General is a high ranking member of The Evil League, an organization from another planet that seeks to wipe out humanity and take Earth for themselves. What The General values most of all is his days off from work. While studying various animals on Earth, The General learns about a creature called a panda which he finds curious. So he goes to the zoo to learn more. After being satisfied by his work visit he decides to go there on his day off where he runs into Red. Red is one of the Rangers that protects humanity and fights against The Evil League, though their meeting was a coincidence. After seeing a ticket to the aquarium in Red's hand, The General learns that Red has a terrible sense of direction and points him to the aquarium. He then runs into two little kids who are also lost and buys them ice cream while walking them to the lost children's center. 

I really liked Mr. Villains Day Off. It has a really relaxing feeling to it. I especially like how The General doesn't hate all of humanity. His interactions with the desk clerk at the convenience store are especially heartwarming. I also like how despite having a goal to take over the Earth he still encourages kids who talk to him to follow their dreams. This show is completely clean. While there is a shower scene it only shows The Generals feet. I would suggest this one for anyone trying to get into anime, or if they just want something relaxing to watch. 

WorldEnd: What are you doing at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us?

This world is full of islands that float in the air. One day in one of the islands cities a girl tries to hide herself but loses her disguise. With the help of a young man she is able to escape the crowds and avoid being pursued. After awhile she is picked up by her escorts and asks that the young man forget he ever met her. Later, the young man Willem is approached by one of his friends, who says that he has a job for him. The job is to take care of weapons at a warehouse. As it sounded simple enough, Willem decides to take it. It is there he meets an old friend who happens to be a man eating troll. She tells him that she is there for the same job he is. Not long after that, Willem runs into the girl he had shown around the city along with a group of small children called Leprechauns. What are they doing at a weapons warehouse? Why do they use technology that no one else uses? It is after questions like these that Willem learns of the Leprechauns history as well as their purpose. Will he be able to save them?

WorldEnd: What are you doing at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us? was a pretty interesting anime. It wasn't so interesting that I watched it without stopping, but it felt different than other romance anime. My favorite part of it was the music. Music doesn't always stand out in anime to me, but like Komi Can't Communicate, I thought every song was great. There is a shower scene and a bath scene. There is also quite a bit of swearing throughout it. It was a fun watch. If you like fantasy romance anime's I would suggest giving it a try.

Alice or Alice

Rise and Airi live with their big brother. With his help they are able to get a job at a maid cafe called Kisa Kissa. In order to help them with their customer service skills the manager Kisaki has them practice making foods and serving it to their brother. Slowly more and more people join the cafe. To help the employees bond more Kisaki has them go on outings to places like a Hot Spring Resort, a festival, as well as the beach. However, a new maid cafe soon pops up to rival them. Will they be able to handle it?

Alice or Alice was actually a lot better than I was expecting it to be. It was a fun slice of life. The message and feeling of the show is wholesome. However, there are a lot of scenes where the girls wear clothes with cleavage, bathing suits, or just a towel in the hot springs episode. If you dislike fan service be aware that there is a fair amount in this. However, if you don't mind it I would suggest giving this one a try since it takes less than an hour to watch.

Anime de Training! XX Specials

The Girls are back with all new exercises to walk you through. Asami does weightlifting, Eri does the wall sit, Shizuna does jump rope, Shion does sit ups, Yuu does back extensions, and Sakura ends with wide squats. Just like the previous videos they go at a pace that is easy to follow along to. 

Anime de Training! XX Specials were interesting. If you don't do the exercises, it is also a great way to learn how to count to one hundred in Japanese. Also just a forewarning if you don't like fan service, the longer they exercise the more transparent their clothing becomes. It's weird and unneeded, but for some reason thats how the videos were made. Anyway if you have seen either their main series or the first season specials you know wether or not this is for you.  

How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift?

Hibiki Sakura has always loved eating. After her friend Ayaka points out that she has gotten bigger lately Hibiki tries to work out at home but loses motivation after a week. After hearing that a new gym opened close by and that they give out free trials, Hibiki decides to give it a try. It is there that she meets the student council president of her school, Akemi. After meeting a helpful trainer named Naruzou Machio both girls decide to become members. However, while Hibiki originally joined to get a boyfriend The boys that she meets at the gym all seem to be different than she expected after getting to know them. Will Hibiki find happiness?

How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift was a pretty fun anime to watch. It is kind of like Anime de Training in that it informs you on different types of exercise you can do and what muscles each exercise enhances. However, unlike Anime de Training, How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift has a storyline. The characters are likable, and the story is good if you like Slice of Life. There is quite a bit of fan service. The anime has two beach episodes, a shower scene, as well as guys ripping off their clothes whenever they flex, which happens in basically every episode. Some of it is censored but a lot of it isn't. If it sounds like something you would be interested in feel free to give it a try.

Anime de Training! EX Specials

Shion, Eri, Asami, Yuu, and Shizuno are back for more exercises. Each girl helps you through a 100 reps of a different exercise. Asami demonstrates how to do sit ups, Eri helps with pushups, Shizuno demonstrates how to do back extensions, Shion helps count squats, and Yuu demonstrates how to do back kicks. Each girl counts at a slow and steady pace making it easy to follow.

Anime de Training! EX Specials were pretty similar to the main series. The animation stays clean for the most part but you do see Eri's panties in the second episode as well as Shizuno's cleavage in the third. Besides that it is pretty much the same as any workout video.

Suicide Squad ISEKAI

After completeing a heist with Joker, Harley Quinn is captured and imprisoned. It is there that she is recruited by Amanda Waller to help gather the resources of another world and bring them back to theirs. Without much of an explanation Harley Quinn, Peace Maker, Deadshot, Clayface, and King Shark are all put into a helicopter and transferred to the other world. However, the people from A.R.G.U.S. are all killed by the citizens of this new world. The Suicide Squad helps to defeat the enemies the kingdom is currently fighting, but rather than being rewarded, they are instead imprisoned. Will they be able to change the minds of this new worlds people, and become accepted?

Suicide Squad Isekai was alright. The World definitely looked and felt different from your average Isekai. However, I think the story wasn't really captivating. There are only two times when you see Harley undressed and thats in episode 1 and episode 10. There is a lot of swearing in each episode as well. This is one I probably won't be watching again. But, if it sounds interesting to you go ahead and give it a try.

Piacevole

Morina Nanase is walking home from school one day with her friend Rii Kagetsu. While talking about whats going on in their lives Morina mentions that she wants to get a part time job. It is then that she comes across a help wanted sign for an Italian restaurant called Festa Trattoria. Despite knowing nothing about Italy or Italian foods Morina is given the job. It is there that she grows a love or Italian foods and makes it her goal to become a chef.

Piacevole is a nice relaxing anime. The story is simple and the episodes are short. All the characters are likable as well. It isn't the type of anime that I would say is one you have to see, but it is good if you want to watch something short while considering what you should watch next. Both the language and visuals are clean, which is a plus. If you like food or restaurant related anime this one might be good for you.

Encouragement of Climb Season 3

Summer has just ended and Aoi is unsatisfied that she only made it halfway up Mount Fuji. She wants to do it again, but after consulting with Kaede she learns that she won't be able to do it until next year due to the weather making it dangerous. So Aoi starts to prepare by carrying a heavier backpack on her local hikes so she will be able to handle the load when they go to Mount Fuji next time. Thanks to spending time with Hinata, other girls start to approach Aoi in hopes of becoming friends. 

Encouragement of Climb Season 3 is one of those anime's that you can feel heal your soul. There is a hot springs scene, but besides that everybody dresses modestly. It was exactly what I needed. If you liked the previous 2 seasons I would definitely suggest watching it.

The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2

After all the help that Naofumi had provided for the kingdom, the queen decides to make him the lord over the town that Raphtalia grew up in before she was kidnapped. News spread quickly and the friends and acquaintances he had made on his journey wanted to help him. he uses the town to train people so they can get stronger. Though Rishia had joined him after being thrown out of the bow hero's party she still wasn't getting stronger. Raphtalia suggests that Rishia should become Naofumi's slave so they can share experience points. Shortly after the shield hero and his party are summoned to the castle, where they are notified that a monster called the Spirit Tortoise had awakened. Not only that, but it had already wiped out entire cities of people and was headed their way. Will Naofumi be able to stop it?

The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 was way better than season 1. The number one thing that made it awesome was that the other heroes were given basically no screen time, so there were no annoying characters. It also wasn't incredibly long like season 1 was. There were a few moments that kind of reminded me of Code Geass. After watching season 1 I thought The Rising of the Shield Hero was a show that made you suffer alongside the main character, but I'm glad Season 2 was different. Season 2 stays clean visually, but there is some swearing here and there. Overall, I liked it and would suggest it if you can manage to survive the torture chamber that Season 1 is. 

Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 2

After defeating the white whale and saving Emilia and the kids from an explosion, Subaru confesses his love for Emilia. However, feeling guilty he tells her that Rem had also given him a confession as well. That is when Emilia asks if Rem is someone she is supposed to know.  Confused because Rem had not been hit by the White whale's fog, he tries to find out what happened. With the help of Puck, Subaru learns that Rem's name and memories have been eaten by a disciple of the witch of Gluttony. This had the same effect as the white whales fog. Everybody except Subaru has totally forgotten who she is despite the fact that she is still alive. Will Subaru be able to find a way to fix it this time?

Re:Zero Season 2 was pretty interesting. I thought that Subaru had stopped being annoying but he goes back to being that way around the end of the season. Everybody dresses modestly and the language remains clean as well. If you liked Season 1 you can feel free to give this one a try as well.

The Irregular at Magic High School Season 3

After stopping the plot of the new breed front to take over the tower, a new semester starts at First High. It is there that Tatsuya is reunited with Mayumi Saegusa who is chaperoning her younger sisters Izumi and Kasumi. Due to a misunderstanding Kasumi mistakes Tatsuya for a womanizer. After apologizing they Meet Miyuki and are offered to become part of the student council. While Izumi is all for it, Kasumi still has reservations about doing anything that involves Tatsuya. Will everyone be able to get along, or will the hate that Mayumi worked hard to get rid of come back this year?

I'm going to be honest, The Irregular at Magic High School Season 3 felt like a cheap version of season 1. The arcs in it have a lot of similarity to season 1 such as the entrance ceremony arc, the nine schools competition, as well as the thesis competition. However, because it is only 13 episodes you don't get to fully enjoy those events like you did in season 1. The nine schools competition in particular felt like it was super glossed over. I honestly wished that there was more. One thing that this season did better is the visuals remained clean. The only exception was when Tatsuya accidentally runs into Mayumi at the store and sees her in a swimsuit. Despite what I said about wishing it was longer, I still believe that it was a good season. If you enjoyed the previous seasons, try and give this one a watch as well. 

The Misfit of Demon King Academy: History's Strongest Demon King Reincarnates and Goes to School with His Descendants Season 2 Part 2

After rewriting the rumors and traditions that made up Avos Dilhevia, Anos takes his rightful place as the Demon King of Tyranny. After hearing from Misha that he will be missed at the Academy, Anos disguises himself as Anosh Polticoal the same disguise he used when visiting the land of the spirits. Many changes are brought about for the students such as Shin Reglia becoming a swordsmanship teacher as well as Enyunion teaching the students. While he is in his castle he is visited by his former teacher Emilia who went into hiding after being stripped of her royal status. Anos says he'll give her a chance to reclaim what she lost, but in order to do that she has to go to the Heroes Academy and teach there. Will she be able to do it?

The Misfit at Demon King Academy Season 2 Part 2 was really interesting. It goes a lot into Anos's past. I know Anos when he became the Demon king told everyone that if they needed something they could come to him. So when a girl tells him that she wants Anos to be her older brother and Anos agrees, its simultaneously cute and surprising. I was surprised because Anos is who I consider to be the most overpowered main character in the fantasy anime genre. His attitude of constantly showing how he is better than everyone else makes it all the more surprising. There are a few scenes where you see the characters in swimsuits, as well as you see the characters in bed together if that is something that makes you uncomfortable. Overall, if you liked the previous seasons I would give Season 2 Part 2 a try because it has a similar feel to season 1. 

The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten

When Amane Fujimiya is walking home he sees a girl sitting all alone in the rain. Fearing she might catch a cold he hands her his umbrella. Amane soon finds out that not only is she the most popular girl at his school, but she lives right next door to him as well. Mahiru Shiina returns the umbrella only to find out that Amane has no idea of how to take care of himself. So she starts by making him a healthy dinner as a way to repay the favor. Slowly Amane and Mahiru grow closer as they start to take care of each other.

The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten was different than I was expecting. It was hard to watch at first because the pacing seemed too slow. However, after a few episodes it started to feel like a romance anime. I don't have a lot to say about it, except that it ended on a satisfying note. A lot of romance anime's end without the relationship going anywhere, but you are able to see these two change throughout the season which I really like. If you are a fan of romance anime I would give this one a try.

Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-

After Subaru Natsuki goes shopping one night he is suddenly transported to another world. However, unlike most other Isekai heroes he is not blessed with powers, but has a curse placed on him instead. This curse allows him to go back to a certain point in time if he happens to die. Soon after he comes to this world he meets a half-elf girl who introduces herself as Satella. She asks him if he knows anything about her insignia that was stolen. While Subaru is unaware of what happened he agrees to help her look.  He eventually finds out where it is and after revealing his intentions to give it back to the owner he is promptly sliced open by an assassin known as The Bowel Hunter. After multiple failed attempts that result in his death he is finally able to return the Insignia with the help of a knight known as Reinhard Van Astraea.

I am not going to lie Re:Zero was definitely an anime that was incredibly hard to watch for me. I think the anime could have been amazing if Subaru had used his brain. He eventually does around episode eighteen and from there it became easily watchable for me. However, there were many things that could have been fixed if he had made minor tweaks to his strategy like not revealing that it was his intention to give Emilia the insignia. Had he done that rather than completely changed his plan from the first time things would have gone a lot smoother. The season is visually clean, though there is a lot of swearing. There is a bath scene, but none of the girls are involved. It is just between Roswaal Mathers and Subaru. Overall, I feel like I have seen many Isekai's that are better than this one, but a lot of people like it. If you think it sounds interesting you can give it a try.

Encouragement of Climb Season 3 OVA

Summer break is about to end and everyone is preparing in a different way. After being told that her mom can't spend time with her, Kokona walks around the city and recalls different things that she has done with her mom as she grew up. Meanwhile Kaede is preparing for the new year by studying for college entrance exams with Yuuka. Hinata goes to Aoi's house and finds a hairpin she made and gave to her before her family moved away. Though she couldn't recall why it was important. Hinata then asks her dad what happened, and it all comes back. 

Encouragement of Climb Season 3 OVA was hard to watch at first but gets better. I think since most episodes are usually half length episodes watching a full length one felt weird. The entire episode was clean and wholesome. If you liked the previous two seasons the Season 3 OVA could be for you.

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2

After proposing to Sylphy and getting the princess's permission to marry her, Rudeus starts to wonder how marriages happen in this world. He learns from his friends that the first step is finding a house to live in together. Rudeus finds a place which is large but the price has been dropped since there has been a series of murders at this location. In order to make sure its safe Rudeus brings Zanoba and Cliff to search for any monsters that may be hiding. They find what has caused so many to die and with the help of Zanoba's incredible physical strength they are able to stop it. When they learn that it is a doll that moves on its own Zanoba keeps it so that he can study the magic that was cast on it. With the doll out of the way, Sylphy and Rudeus are able to move into a safe and clean home. Not long after, Rudeus receives a letter from Paul telling him that he is sending his little sisters Aisha and Norn to live with him. However, while Aisha looks up to Rudy, Norn still hasn't forgiven him for the fight he had with Paul after he returned from the Demon Continent. Will they be able to make up?

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2 was better than I was expecting. I really liked that you got to see more of Norn and Aisha since they only have small appearances in Season 1 and Season 1 Part 2. The season stays mostly modest. However, there are a few short bath scenes, as well as scenes where you see Roxy and Sylphy undressed in bed. Though the sheets cover most of them so you don't see anything below the shoulders. Anyway if you like the previous seasons of Mushoku Tensei I would suggest watching this as well.

Encouragement of Climb Season 2 Specials

After seeing that Kaede wears the same outfits over and over Yuuka suggests that she gets more girly outfits to show off her feminine side. Kaede calls up Aoi, Hinata and Kokona to talk about it and they decide to go on a shopping trip together. Once they arrive at the mall Kaede heads straight for a store that sells hiking equipment. After looking at a few things Aoi, Hinata, and Kokona redirect her to a store that sells bras and underwear. Seeing as Kaede only has sport bras Aoi tries to pick out a cute and casual one for Kaede.

Encouragement of Climb Season 2 Specials were interesting. I was expecting them to be more sport related like the season 1 OVA was. The second special episode was a countdown of the top 10 best moments between season 1 and season 2 which I thought was unique. The specials aren't relevent to the main story so if you don't like fan service you can feel free to skip these.

Encouragement of Climb Season 2

Aoi, Hinata, Kokona, and Kaede plan a camping trip in the mountains. However, after Aoi's mom gets concerned they decide to do it in Hinata's backyard instead. While not in treacherous terrain, Aoi still gets the experience of setting up a tent and sleeping in a sleeping bag outside. After awhile Aoi starts to get interested in Mount Fuji. So to surprise her Hinata plans a trip to Mount Mitsutouge which has a great view of Mount Fuji. After the four of them hike to the top of Mount Mitsutouge they plan a trip to Mount Fuji so they can see the sunrise from it. Will they be able to climb it, or will Aoi's fear of heights stop her?

Encouragement of Climb Season 2 was super fun to watch. I really like how realistic all the scenery feels. They made this season longer than the first season which was nice. I feel like you get to learn about a lot more mountains in this season than you did in season 1. There are a few bath scenes as well as a hot spring scene. The language remains clean though. If you like sports anime I would definitely give this one a try.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War -Ultra Romantic- Season 3

Iino walks into the Student Council Room to find Ishigami alone. After voicing her disgust that she had the displeasure of running into him she puts on her music so she can study. However, her headphones aren't all the way plugged in so what she's listening to can be heard aloud by everyone. As the other Student Council members walk in Ishigami does everything he can to let her know that her headphones are unplugged without telling her directly. Despite his best efforts her embarrassing taste in music get exposed. On another day the student council are bringing items into the Student Council Room. After seeing Ishigami struggle to carry a desk inside, Chika Fujiwara suggests that they have an arm wrestling competition to see who is the strongest.

Kaguya-sama Season 3 was better than I remembered. I think the addition of Maki Shijo made it a lot better for me. She's a character that is easy to relate to in multiple ways for me. Also it feels like the relationships actually progress this season, which I didn't feel at all in the previous two. Everybody dresses modestly and the language is kept clean. Overall, I would definitely suggest it since it is what I was hoping for in Season one and two.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War? Season 2

In hopes of furthering their relationship Ai Hayasaka sneaks into the Student Council Room and switches out the coffee that the president uses for decaffeinated coffee. This causes Shirogane to fall asleep, but rather than taking advantage of the situation, Kaguya freezes up. After that Chika Fujiwara comes in with a game she and the game club created and asks everyone to play. Reluctantly Kaguya, Shirogane, and Ishigami agree to play. However, many of the things that happen in the game reflect reality a little too well making everyone besides Fujiwara depressed.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War Season 2 is really good. A lot of interesting things happen like an election for a new student council, and the reveal of Ishigami's past which lets you know why he seems to be depressed all the time. The Season stays clean visually. However, there is some swearing throughout it. Overall, if you liked the first season I would definitely give Season 2 a try as well.

I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying Season 2

After learning that Hajime had finally made more than her with his job as a web developer they decide to do something to celebrate. Kaoru is reminded of a ramen place that she went to back in high school but she forgot where exactly it was. So Hajime takes her back to her hometown and they search for it while visiting her old high school. After visiting six other ramen locations they finally find it. Hajime says that he's glad that they went on this trip because it allowed him to have a glimpse into Kaoru's past.

I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying Season 2 was just as good as the first season. I think my favorite part is when it shows Hajime watching TV and its Himegoto that's playing. The majority of the anime is clean, but there is a hot springs episode. The language remains clean throughout it as well. If you have watched the first season and enjoyed it, I would suggest watching the second season as well.

KONOSUBA -God's Blessing on This Wonderful World! Season 3

After going through the ordeal with the Demon General Sylvia, Kazume decides that he wants to quit adventuring and become a monk. He believes his resolve to be unshakable and heads for the nearest temple. However, after finding a mallet that has the power to make money when you shake it, Kazuma decides to go back home. When he arrives Darkness is holding a letter which she tries to hide. After taking it and reading it, Kazuma learns that the princess wants to meet him and hear about his adventures in person. Will Kazuma be able to act properly in front of royalty without getting into trouble?

Konosuba Season 3 was pretty interesting. It felt different, like there was less of a focus on fighting monsters and adventuring. It was more of a slice of life season with the occasional fight. Surprisingly Kazuma went the whole season without going into debt. Though there were a lot more bath scenes than any other season. There was also a lot of swearing, if that is something that bothers you. In my opinion the first two seasons were better. However, if you have followed the series up to this point, I think season 3 is still worth watching. 

I Can't Understand What My Husband Is Saying

After getting married Hajime Tsunashi stayed at home blogging while his wife Kaoru went off to work. Rather than be in a relationship where they try and make each other happy, Kaoru and Hajime decided to make themselves happy. Despite the differences in their way of life both of them maintain a happy marriage.

I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying is pretty funny. The relationship of an otaku and a non otaku feels relatable and more realistic than other relationships to me. It kind of reminds me of Anime-Gataris. Though the relationship in Anime-Gataris was one of friendship rather than marriage. The anime is mostly clean except for the ending theme which shows Kaoru and Hajime in the bath. There is also a scene in the first episode where you see Kaoru in a bikini.  Overall, it is a fun anime, and it is worth giving a try. 

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime OAD

After being stretched far too thin by Shuna and Shion, Rimuru looks for a way for them to have something soft so they aren't always grabbing him. He is reminded of the bean bags in his previous life and decide to make some that resemble him. He first asks Shuna to find a thin stretchy material and then goes to Garm to see if he knows any bead like material that the bean bags can be filled with. Garm lets him know that there is a material called Sarasa that can be found in a nearby lake. However, there are rumors that there is a monster living in the lake so he should be careful. Confident in his abilities, Rimuru invites all his friends to have a picnic by the lake before they gather the Sarasa. However they are caught by surprise when everyone is grabbed by octopus like tentacles. Will they be able to defeat the monster and get the material they came for?

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime OAD was really good. I really liked the episodes about Rimuru teaching at the Freedom Academy. You get to see a little more of the kids after they have all recieved help from the spirits. While it does have an episode where the girls are in bikini's at the lake, I would still give it a try if you like the main series. The OVA takes place between the first and second season, if you want to watch it in chronological order.

As Miss Beelzebub Likes it.

In the underworld there is a place called Pandemonium which is ruled by the demon beelzebub. Most people see her as a cool and collected ruler. However, after getting hired as her assistant Mullin learns the truth. Beelzebub is obsessed with things that are fluffy, so much so that thinking about it can slow down her work. While Mullin's mental image of beelzebub was shattered, he found out that he doesn't mind who she really is. Watch as Mullin and Beelzebub draw closer to each other while making new friends in pandemonium.

As Miss Beelzebub Likes it was a lot funnier and more relatable than I expected it to be. It is made by the same author who made Studio Apartment, Good Lighting, Angel Included. This was interesting because there were a few times I was reminded of it while watching. However, I believe that As miss Beelzebub likes it is better. While Mullin and Shintaro have similar personalities Mullin is more focused on work and doesn't have to worry about a harem. In this anime every character has someone they like and are trying to get closer to. I especially found myself cheering on Belphegor in her attempts to become closer to Azazel. The accuracy of the workplace type relationships, as well as the way the characters act at work felt pretty relatable to me. There is a bath scene, as well as a scene where Belphegor and Beelzebub try on swimsuits. You do see Beelzebub undressed in the first episode but she is covered by white gossimers, She also wears an outfit for the majority of the show that exposes her chest. Despite that it remains a cute and wholesome show. If you want to see a funny fantasy romance anime I would suggest giving it a try.

Date A Live Season 5

After learning about Kurumi Tokisaki's past, Shido calls all the spirits to Fraxinus to tell them about her true intentions. After talking together, one of Kurumi's clones shows up and warns them that there will be a war where DEM will send out all their forces in an attempt to kill Shido so Isaac Westcott can gain his spirit power. Using the power of beelzebub, Isaac is aware that Kurumi has been going back in time each time DEM has attacked to prevent Shido from dying. He intents to use this to his advantage to see how much more Kurumi is actually able to handle. However, thanks to Kurumi's warning, Ratatoskr intends to use all their resources in stopping DEM. Will Shido and his friends actually be able to stop them?

Date A Live has been one of my favorite series since I started watching anime. I also believe it to be in the top three best harem anime's I have seen. The other two being The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You and The World God Only Knows. However, the majority of this season felt really slow. While it did answer questions that were left unanswered in previous seasons, that wasn't enough to make me want to watch more than two episodes at a time. Were the episodes not fully out I might have dropped it. I think the spirit of origin as a character bothered me. Also in the past a new spirit was introduced every three to four episodes. Though why they didn't do that this season was clear. I think Miku and Origami definitely carried the season for me, though my appreciation for Kurumi grew a great deal as well. There were quite a few beach episodes throughout this season as well as a hot springs episode. Though for the majority of the beach scenes the characters wore regular clothes rather than swimsuits. Overall, if you have kept up with the series so far I would suggest giving it the three episode rule to see if you enjoy it.

Re:Monster

After being stabbed over and over Tomokui Kanata wakes up side by side next to a group of goblin babies. It doesn't take him long to realize he has been reincarnated as a goblin and given the name Gobrou. He learns that goblins grow by evolving. So with the help of of his friend Gobkichi he manages to catch bigger monsters than what would have been possible on his own. He has another secret, and that is his ability to gain the skills of whatever monster he eats from his past life stayed with him. It is only a few days until he is made the leader of the Goblin village. While he has the ability to obtain unlimited strength, will he be able to save everyone?

Re:Monster was very interesting to watch. When I heard that it was about a goblin that gains monsters abilities by eating them I was expecting it to be like Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest. However, it turned out to be more like a mix of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime and Redo of Healer. While it never shows anything on the level of Redo of Healer it doesn't hide what Gobrou is doing with the ladies either. In other words you hear the girls moaning, but the scene is blocked as if they are in a private room and all you see is the door. Besides that Gobrou's goal is just to help his friends get stronger. When they successfully do this they make their own Mercenary group called Parabellum. There are some things to be aware of like hot spring scenes in episodes 6 and 11, as well as loose clothing that exposes a lot of skin which isn't uncommon in Isekai anime's. Overall, I thought it was a unique story and worth the watch.  

BLUELOCK THE MOVIE -EPISODE NAGI-

Seishiro Nagi had no ambition. All he wanted to do was spend his time playing videogames. That is until he met Reo Mikage. Reo accidentally bumps into Nagi which causes him to drop his game console. Not wanting it to break he jumps off the school stairs and manages to catch it with his foot. After seeing this Reo asks Nagi to play soccer with him. While he rejects the offer multiple times, Nagi finally gives in. Reo tells Nagi of his dream to be the best soccer player in the world. However, his parents would rather have him inherit their company. So they have them play against one of the best high school soccer teams in Japan. But rather than lose like they wanted him to, Reo, Nagi, and their team manage to win. There also happened to be another person watching that day. After seeing them play she recruits them to participate in Bluelock. The goal of Bluelock is to find the greatest striker in japan. Will Reo and Nagi be able to continue their undefeated record?

Bluelock The Movie -Episode Nagi- was so good. I didn't know anything about Bluelock except that it was about soccer, so I had a vague image of what to expect. However, Episode Nagi far surpassed my expectations. It starts by introducing the characters rather than throwing you into it, so watching the first season prior to it doesn't matter which was an upside for me. It also starts at a high school giving it a familiar feel. Not only was the animation impressive, but the story kept me on the edge of my seat as well. Another plus was that the characters didn't feel cringey. Nagi in particular felt relatable to me which made me want to see him succeed. Overall,  if you are wondering about watching it or not, I would definitely suggest giving it a try.
