Motto To Love Ru (Season 2)


When Rito and Lala are running late to school, Lala runs so fast that Rito can't keep up. when he tells her to stop, she stops so suddenly that he goes flying. He lands on top of Golden Darkness who promptly punches him all the way back to where he was before. When he lands in front of Lala she mentions that they were standing in the same place they were when he first proposed to her. Later the group goes to a local Hot Springs with Golden Darkness who has people after her. They believe that she has grown weak due to her refusal to kill Rito Yuuki. 

Motto To Love Ru was different from season 1, but still good. Each episode was split into three tiny stories which I thought was a nice change from the regular episodes in season 1. While Nana and Momo aren't in every episode they show up enough for you to grow to like them. There is a lot of fan service but its mainly panty shots, there is a hot spring episode, a pool episode, as well as multiple bath scenes. It feels kind of similar to Rosario+Vampire in that regard. If you don't like the Ecchi genre then you don't have to watch it, but if you enjoyed season 1, then I would suggest giving it a try.

To LOVE Ru OVA


When Lala hears Saruyama talk about how he likes the way girls look physically, she asks her friends if that really matters to humans. Lala then makes an invention that should give her the ideal body to win Rito over. However, Rito accidently falls into it after getting hit by Golden Darkness and is transformed into a girl. Now Rito needs to find a way back before his friends find out about his new form.

To LOVE Ru OVA's were really fun to watch. They aren't all necessary to watch, but I would suggest giving episodes four and five a watch since new characters are introduced in those. The OVA's have less fan service than I expected. There just seemed to be a lot of panty shots which is kind of expected after seeing the first season of To Love Ru. its up to you whether you give it a try or not, but If you liked the first season of To Love Ru, I would suggest watching the OVA's.

To Love Ru


After a day at school Rito Yuuki decides to take a bath. What he did not expect was an alien to warp into his bathtub with him. He finds out that her name is Lala Satalin Deviluke and she is currently being chased by people from outer space. Rito decides to help her, only to find out that the people who are after her are her guards. They want to bring her back after she ran away from home. Unwittingly Rito ends up getting engaged to Lala which gives her a reason to stay on earth rather than return home.

To Love Ru was not what I was expecting. I was kind of expecting there to be a character named Ru and it would be a cute love story. What really happens is you meet a all kind of aliens from outer space who are after either Rito or Lala. It does resemble a high school romance in some ways as it has the cultural festival, a hot springs episode, an amusement park episode, etc. However, it doesn't feel the same as anime's like Horimiya and Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian. It has a little bit of fan service in each episode. So if you don't like the ecchi genre, you should stay away from this. However, it was kind of fun to watch. My favorite character is an assassin from outer space known as Golden Darkness. I would suggest giving it a try if you are looking for something a bit different from your usual romcom.

Black Butler Season 2 OVA


Ciel wakes up and sees his butler grow bunny ears and a tail. He follows him through a maze of doors and ends up in Wonderland. There he meets different characters who refer to him as Alice. They try and help him experience the wonders of Wonderland. However, Ciel is only interested in finding the White Rabbit. When they ask him why he simply replies that the white rabbit is his butler. Will Ciel be able to avoid the chaos Wonderland holds by being himself, or will his strong will actually make things worse for him?

I'm not going to lie, the OVA's for Black Butler Season 2 were wild. It was crazy how much the two stories have in common. The Black Butler character personalities matched their wonderland counterparts perfectly. Ran-Mao being a mushroom instead of a human didn't seem too far-fetched for me. Lao being the smoking caterpillar also matched his character. It was masterful and unnerving at the same time. There were some inappropriate scenes  and jokes though. I should have expected as much from an OVA. I was disappointed though, because Black Butler is a clean anime. If you like black butler I would give it a try because of how wild it is. But they don't have to do with the main story, so you can also feel free to skip them as well.

Black Butler Season 2


One stormy day a man walks into the home of Alois Trancy. He carries a large suitcase and is treated like any visitor to a noble's estate. However, this man is less than satisfied with the service. He decides to look around where he finds an uncommon brand of Tea in the basement. It is there that Alois Trancy learns that the man is Sebastian Michaelis, the demon contracted to Ciel Phantomhive. In the commotion the suitcase opens, and inside is the body of Ciel Phantomhive.

Black Butler Season 2 was not as great as Season 1. Alois Trancy was annoying for the majority of the season. While the ending was unsatisfying to me, the decision makes sense if they wanted to continue the story. The season is clean visually, but there is a lot of scenes where people are mistreated. Alois Trancy is what you might call a scumbag. If you liked the first season of Black Butler feel free to give the second season a try.

Black Butler: His Butler, Performer


Ciel hires an acting troupe to perform hamlit for a group of orphans. However, when the actors are unable to make it to England, Ciel and his friends end up playing the parts of the different characters with Sebastian's help. Will Ciel be able to satisfy the crowd with only three days to prepare?

I liked Black Butler: His Butler, Performer more than I thought I would. Hamlet bears a lot of similarity to Ciel's own life which made the play interesting to watch. If you enjoyed the first season, I would suggest giving this special episode a try.

Black Butler


Ciel Phantomhive is a noble in England commonly known as "The Queen's Guard Dog." After His parents were burned in a fire he made a contract with a Demon. That Demon became Ciel's Butler, Sebastian Michaelis. Now Ciel Seeks revenge on those who wronged him and he'll use any means necessary to achieve his goals.

Black Butler was a good anime. The characters were all lovable, but my favorite has to be Mey-rin. While the season is mostly filler episodes, none of them felt out of place. I read the first volume of the manga to see if I would be interested or not, and the anime did not disappoint. The characters all dress modestly and the anime is clean. If you like mystery anime with supernatural elements I would suggest giving it a try.

Hell’s Paradise


Gabimaru the Hollow is an Assassin for the Iwagakure Clan. After breaking the rules and trying to leave his village he is set to be executed. However, his executioner tells him that he has a choice to either die or go to an island and retrieve the elixir of life. If he accomplishes this he will receive a pardon from the Shogunate. Unfortunately, no one has returned alive from the island, except a single man who was consumed by flowers. Will Gabimaru be able to make it back alive?

Hell's Paradise was a lot weirder than I was expecting it to be. It has the feel of a death game anime, but it also feels different in a way. The anime was mostly clean though there were parts where you see the residents of the island undressed. Overall, it was interesting to watch. If you like Death Game type anime's I would suggest giving Hell's Paradise a try.

Lycoris Recoil -Friends are thieves of time.-


While Takina and Chisato plan a trip to Hawaii, they get a call from Headquarters requesting their help to capture a criminal. However, they don't have to look because the next thing they know that very same criminal bursts into Cafe Lycoreco demanding they hand over all the store's money. With Chisato and Takina's Skills they capture the man with ease.

Lycoris Recoil -Friends are thieves of time.- is a series of shorts about Takina, Chisato, and the other main characters of Lycoris Recoil. It was pretty fun to watch. Though I enjoyed the series when it came out, so I knew that it would be fun. If you enjoyed Lycoris Recoil, I would suggest giving the shorts a try. If you haven't seen it and enjoy action anime, I would suggest giving the original series a try as well.

The Elusive Samurai


Tokiyuki Hojo is the heir to the Hojo Clan and Kamakura Shogunate. When one of his fathers soldiers, Takauji Ashikaga betrays the clan and joins the emperor the Kamakura Shogunate is wiped out with the exception of Tokiyuki who is taken in by a man named Yorishige Suwa who is in charge of the Suwa Territory. Yorishige tells Tokiyuki that one day he will become a hero and take back the kamakura Shogunate. Tokiyuki doesn't fully believe him, but he isn't willing to die yet either. So Tokiyuki moves to the Suwa Grand Shrine where he starts his journey of preparing to take back his home.

The Elusive Samurai was a lot better than I was expecting it to be. I don't typically watch anime that involve Samurai, but I actually enjoyed it. All of the characters were interesting in my opinion. I especially liked Shizuku, though she doesn't get as much screen time as the other characters. The language was clean, as were the visuals. If you enjoy action anime, I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!


Kazuhiko Nukumizu claims to have never had any friends, and typically spends his time alone. However, when he sees a girl named Anna Yanami get rejected after confessing her feelings he approaches her and listens while she vents about how upset she is all while eating tons of food at a restaurant. While he typically would have left and forgotten about the whole thing, Anna forgets her wallet and has Kazuhiko buy everything. He expects her to pay him back, but Anna proposes rather than just handing him money, she makes him lunches everyday until she's paid back all the money she owes him.

Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroine! was not at all what I expected. I was expecting a good romance anime. However, rather than love and acceptance being at the core of the anime, its more about rejection which should have been obvious to me from the title. However, I expected a cute romance and was slapped in the face with reality in anime form. I was hoping that a new romance would start with Kazuhiko and one of the girls. But all of the girls are still stuck on their old crushes even after getting rejected. So Kazuhiko's presence in the anime is essentially meaningless. I don't like how the girls mistreat him, but at the same time I don't like him as a character either. There were good moments throughout the anime, but most of it was just disappointing. Its like going to eat an apple but once you bite into it the inside is completely dry and flavorless. There is a beach episode and a bath scene, but most of it remains visually clean. You can try it if you like, but don't expect too much.

Teekyuu Season 9


Tomarin talks about her daily life. Nasuno's birthday is coming up and Kanae, Marimo, and Yuri want to celebrate it. However, they don't know what kind of gifts rich people enjoy. Kanae wants to turn the tennis club into an idol group. To celebrate the 100th episode of Teekyuu the characters are ranked with the exception of Kanae who acts as the announcer.

Teekyuu Season 9 was pretty good. Surprisingly season 9 had both an intro and an outro. This cut down the time of the actual episode but each episode didn't actually seem all that shorter. Everyone dressed modestly for Season 9 despite it having the characters in swimsuits for the seasons artwork. If you enjoy short comedy anime I would suggest giving Teekyuu a try.

Teekyuu Season 8


Udonko needs help with ideas that will help her get to nationals in the upcoming newspaper competition. So she consults the tennis club to see what they think. The Tennis club decides to take a break and go to the beach. However after getting on a boat to go farther into the water, Marimo, Kanae, Yuri, and Nasuno all get shipwrecked and each ends up in a different location.

Teekyuu Season 8 was just as good as the previous seasons. Something interesting about this season is you get to see how Kanae, Nasuno, and Marimo first met. I understand why they kept it for later in the series, since the show starts out with Yuri entering the tennis club who is a year younger than Nasuno, Marimo, and Kanae. The season stays mostly clean, with the exception of panty shots in one episode and Marimo undressed for half a second in another episode. If you have liked it so far than keep on going, and if you haven't started it yet, I would suggest giving it a try.

Teekyuu Season 7


Yuri walks outside to see a big hole in the ground. Kanae calls out to her and Yuri sees Kanae eating ramen. Kanae tells Yuri that she has switched everyone from the tennis club to the well-digging club. After trying it out, Yuri finds that she really enjoys digging holes and wants to make it to nationals with Kanae-senpai.

Teekyuu Season 7 was pretty fun to watch. It had a few episodes which made me really laugh. The jokes in this anime are absolutely fantastic. If you are looking for something funny to watch that's only a few minutes long, I would definitely suggest giving Teekyu a try.

Teekyuu Season 6


Nasuno, Kanae and Marimo all have Physical Education on a cold snowy day. They hear they are doing exercises and rather than doing traditional ones, they decide to make up some of their own. Kanae needs a new smartphone after her current one becomes too heavy. Valentines day is just around the corner and Udonko Kondo invites yuri to make chocolates with her. However, they end up making curry instead.

Teekyuu Season 6 was funny and chaotic like the other seasons of Teekyuu. This season was actually surprisingly wholesome. Though After not watching Teekyuu for so long I've lost my ability to read at the speed they talk so I paused it a lot more this time. It was fun to watch though, and I would suggest it if you enjoy the comedy anime genre.

Tonari no Seki-kun: The Master of Killing Time


Rumi Yokoi sits next to Toshinari Seki who never seems to pay attention in class. In fact he spends all his time playing with different games and toys. Though the way he plays is unconventional and constantly grabs Rumi's attention. Though the one that tends to get in trouble is not Toshinari for messing around, but Rumi for being distracted in class.

Tonari no Seki-Kun: The master of Killing time isn't great being binged. I enjoyed it more watching a couple episodes at a time. While the episodes are only a few minutes long each one is fun and unique. The entire season remains clean both visually and verbally. If you are looking for something to watch between shows, Tonari no Seki-Kun is a great option.

The Duke of Death and His Maid Season 3


The Duke learns that there is a way to break his curse. However, it involves the death of the witch who cast it on him. Unwilling to let anybody die for his sake, the duke tries to convince the Wizard Nico to try and talk things out with Sade and become friends rather than enemies. Before they can put their plan into action, preparations need to be made so that the risk of death is minimized. Will the duke be able to break his curse and live happily ever after?

The Duke of Death and His Maid Season 3 was super good. I really enjoyed this series. The anime was able to end in a satisfying way that didn't leave any questions unanswered. I really enjoyed the character Keto. She gives the anime a fun feeling in my opinion. The anime remains mostly clean, though there is a part where you see Alice's back without any clothes. If you enjoy the romance genre, I think that The Duke of Death and His Maid is worth giving a try.

The Duke of Death and His Maid Season 2


One day, when Cuff comes over to the Villa, she decides to show off her fire magic. However, despite it being the middle of winter the fire makes the mansion hot and humid. So Cuff decides to pull out a magical bathtub which changes sizes to cool off. Meanwhile Daleth says that she plans to help the duke get rid of his curse in exchange for Zain's Time Magic.

The Duke of Death and His Maid Season 2 was just as good as Season 1. It had a fun lighthearted feeling to it, despite it being about a man who kills anything he touches. While Season 2 does have a pool and Hot Springs scene it remains mostly clean. There is one character who walks around in a swimsuit though. Anyway if you are looking for a fun and unique romance anime, I would suggest giving The Duke of Death and His Maid a try.

Shangri-La Frontier Season 2


In order to use the equipment Sunraku, Oikatzo, and Arthur Pencilgon got from defeating Wethermon they need a blacksmith that can fix divinity age weapons. Bilac says that only an Ancient Blacksmith is able to work with things from the divinity age. so Sunraku hatches a plan to turn Bilac into an Ancient Blacksmith. However, on his way to do that, Oikatzo and Arthur Pencilgon follow him to an ancient facility that is guarded by golems. Will they be able to defeat their enemies and find the Magical Operations Unit required to turn Bilac from a regular Blacksmith to an Ancient Blacksmith?

I really enjoyed Shangri-La Frontier Season 2. New Characters are introduced as well as old ones from the first season start becoming more involved. There is minimal swearing throughout the season and everybody dresses modestly. If you want a good fantasy anime, I would suggest giving this one a try.

Deaimon: Recipe for Happiness


After hearing that his dad has injured his back, Nagomu Irino moves back home with the intention of taking over the family business. However, after being gone for ten years, he isn't given the warmest welcome. Nagomu's dad tells him that he already has a successor to the Sweets Shop he runs. Nagomu finds out that it's a little girl named Itsuka Yukihira. Itsuka was dropped off at the sweets shop while Nagomu was gone by her father after her mother left the two of them. Itsuka has been working to become the next owner of Rokyuusho which all that hard work makes her see Nagomu as irresponsible despite being the owner's son. Will Itsuka and Nagomu ever get to be on good terms?

Deaimon: Recipe for Happiness was pretty slow. I watched it because I was hoping it would be a fun food anime like Sweetness & Lightning. However, it didn't meet my expectations. What was weird was that Nagomu's mom asks him to be like a father to her. This premise can be pulled off well like in Buddy Daddies and The Yakuza's Guid to Babysitting, but it didn't manage to do that either. The problem is Nagomu tries too hard to fit that roll, that he ends up messing it up. They feel more like a brother and Sister, rather than a father and daughter. The anime is mostly clean. There is a pool scene where you see the characters in swimsuits, but besides that everyone dresses modestly. If you like Slice of Life anime's about food, I would give this one a try.

My Dress-Up Darling


Wakana Gojo wants to be a Kashirashi or Hina Doll Maker. Wakana didn't mind that he spent all his time making Hina dolls until his grandpa asks if he has any friends. Wakana claims that he does, but their schedules don't align so he never sees them. One day while Wakana is using the schools sewing machine the most popular girl in his class Marin Kitagawa catches him. She tells him that it is her dream to cosplay her favorite characters from games that she plays and anime's that she watches. She then asks if he can help her sew an outfit. While Wakana has never tried making clothes for a human before, he agrees to help her.

My Dress-Up Darling was pretty good. However, I don't think it is as good as people make it out to be though. It feels kind of like 2.5 dimensional Seduction except that Marin knows almost nothing about cosplaying while Ririsa is multi-talented at knowing her characters as well as making the outfits herself. It was still enjoyable to watch. There was quite a bit of fan service such as a beach episode, a bath scene, and multiple times where you see marin in her underwear or other revealing clothes. If you like Romance anime and don't mind the Ecchi genre, give it a try.

Magic Maker: How to Make Magic in Another World


In his past life, Shion was obsessed with magic. He stayed single until he was thirty because he heard that if you are still a virgin at thirty you become a wizard. However, he had no such luck after trying incantations of all kinds. He falls asleep and wakes up in another world. While this is a fantasy world no one in this world has ever heard of magic. while he is disappointed to hear this he continues his search for any signs of magic. Then one day he gets what he wants after his sister Marie mentions that she has seen floating lights above a lake near their house and wonders if this is the magic Shion desired.

Magic Maker: How to Make Magic in Another World was pretty slow starting out. But around episode 5 it starts to get really good. While it was cool to see Shion create magic, I was hoping it would be a quicker process. The anime stays pretty clean, however, there is a bath scene in it. If you are curious about how magic is developed you can give it a try. Though if you are a fan of your average isekai just know that it doesn't become like that until around episode 6.

The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World


During a fight on Earth, Togo Asagaki sacrifices himself in order to save his team, Kizuna Five. He is transported to Another world, where, after becoming an adventurer, he meets a girl known as Yihdora Arvoln. Yihdora was looking for people strong enough to stand against her magic. After seeing Togo in action she joins his adventuring party.

The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World was pretty fun to watch. It reminded me a little of Love after World Domination, since both have a power rangers theme. It also gives a new feel to fantasy anime's combining the magic you usually see in adventuring animes along with a mecha anime feel. It does have a bath scene in it. Yihdora's outfit is also pretty revealing. If you don't care about fan service, and enjoy anime's with adventurers, I would give it a try.

Sweetness & Lightning


Kouhei Inuzuka is a high school teacher who recently lost his wife. He does his best to take care of his daughter Tsumugi, but doesn't ever cook. While walking through the park they see a girl crying as she is eating. After learning that her mom didn't show up to eat with her she gives Kouhei and Tsumugi a business card for her mom's restaurant. One night when Tsumugi is hungry, Kouhei calls the number on the card and goes to the restaurant. They find Kotori Iida alone when they finally arrive. She tells them that her mom is currently out but she will do her best to make rice for them. After eating Kouhei promises to start cooking  and upon hearing that Kotori asks if they would mind cooking from time to time with her since her mom is almost always gone. Tsumugi and Kouhei agree to her request, and both do their best to learn to cook together.

Sweetness & Lightning was a fun anime about food. I always enjoy these types of anime. It kind of resembles Restaurant to Another World but without the fantasy characters and it takes place in a home instead of a restaurant. The anime has a wholesome feeling and is devoid of any fan service and swearing. If you enjoy anime's about cooking I would suggest giving Sweetness & Lightning a try.

Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable!


Tsubasa Shiki has just moved from Tokyo to Hokkaido. On the way to his new house he stops the cab and gets out, thinking that it will only be a short walk to his new home. In the snow he runs into Minami Fuyuki who tells him that the place he wants to go to is actually three hours away if you walk. So he stays with her as he waits for the bus to come. He learns that Minami actually attends the same school that he will be transferring to. When he goes to school the following day he learns that they are actually seat neighbors in the same class.

I went into this with super low expectations, but was pleasantly surprised. The first few episodes made it look like it was going to be a romance with a single couple, but it turned into a Harem anime. However, Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable didn't make one of the mistakes that I dislike about Harem anime and that's the girls fighting between each other. It did make the second mistake that a lot of Harems have and that is that there was no romantic progression. I would have liked to have seen Minami and Tsubasa at least hold hands. It was mostly visually clean, but there was a bath scene and a shower scene. Anyway if some minor fan service doesn't bother you, I think it is worth giving a try.

OKITSURA: Fell in Love with an Okinawan Girl, but I Just Wish I Knew What She's Saying


Teruaki Nakamura recently moved from Tokyo to Okinawa and fell in love. However, the girl he fell for, Hina Kyan, has such a thick accent that he can't understand her. Luckily, Hina's friend, Kana Higa is willing to translate the local dialect into modern Japanese for him. As Kana helps Teruaki he doesn't just learn the dialect, but also learns about the culture and mannerisms of the citizens of Okinawa.

Okitsura: Fell in Love with an Okinawan Girl, but I Just Wish I Knew What She's Saying was better than I was expecting. I did wish that Teruaki would become interested in Kana instead of Hina but then they would need to change the title. It was fun learning things about Okinawa that I never would have guessed existed. It kind of reminds me a little of Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian with the whole language barrier thing. Despite the whole anime taking place near the beach, everybody dresses modestly. its honestly a good romance with no fan service at all. If you enjoy the Romantic Comedy genre of anime, I would definitely suggest checking Okitsura out.

Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf!


Ever since he was little, Kazuhiro Kitase has been able to travel to a fantasy world when he is sleeping. Throughout the years he has become proficient at fighting and escaping. One day, when he is visiting a Dungeon with his friend Marie, they run into an Arkdragon. The Arkdragon attempts to burn them with her fire breath, but instead Marie wakes up in Kazuhiro's apartment in Tokyo. Now Kazuhiro wants to show her what this world without magic has to offer.

Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf! was a surprisingly enjoyable anime. I didn't really have any expectations going into it, but I think this is what I originally wanted out of Uncle From Another World. It kind of feels like Saving 80,000 Gold for my Retirement with the whole going back and forth between Earth and a fantasy world. There is a fair bit of fan service. When Marie and Wridra both wake up in Kazuhiro's apartment they appear without any clothes on. Also there are multiple hot springs and bath scenes. It is a cute romance anime though. I would suggest giving it a try if you don't mind the isekai and slice of life genres.

Toilet-bound Hanako-kun Season 2


Nene, Kou, and Hanako are back! When Nene's friend Aoi shares a rumor about three guardians that can control time, she dismisses it as being too unrealistic. However, when she walks into her classroom everything has either rotted away or turned to dust. Even the plant that Nene brought that morning had turned into a full blown tree. It's almost as if someone had turned time forward. While most of the lunches had gone bad Nene's and Aoi's were perfectly fine. This leads Hanako-kun and Nene to believe that Aoi might secretly be a school wonder.

Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun Season 2 started off really strong, but it became hard to keep watching after episode 6. I still think that this series is way better than some other anime's despite it being a little slow near the middle. The clock keepers arc was really good as well as the episode where Hanako, Nene, and Kou visit an otherworldly summer festival. I would definitely suggest giving it a watch if you haven't already.

The Daily Life of a Middle-Aged Online Shopper in Another World


Keniichi Hamada is summoned one day to another world. All he's left with is the ability to purchase items from his world using the online store Shangri-la. Rather than lose hope because he's not overpowered, he decided to become a merchant and live his ideal slow life. He travels to a town called Dahlia where he sets up his first stall. It is there he meets a girl named Primulla who is the daughter of the head of the Mallow trading company. This starts off a wonderful business relationship between the two merchants.

Now that the summary is over I can finally say what I want. The Daily Life of a Middle-Aged Online Shopper in Another World made me uncomfortable as heck. I have no problems with harems, but it felt like every single female character was throwing themselves at this forty year old man. This of course involves the adolescent girls. Now age difference has never really bothered me when it comes to anime. However, a forty year old and ten year old couple is too much for me. I also didn't like that Primulla turns into a stalker halfway through and then Keniichi decides to go and marry her anyway. It was kind of like a rip off of Campfire Cooking in Another World. Also every single episode has a bath scene. So I would suggest staying away from this one.  

Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective


Takao Ameku is the head of the Investigative Pathology Division at Tenikai Hospital. She goes around solving mysteries that are caused by unknown medical problems. She is helped by her assistant Yu Takanashi who she refers to as Kotori. However, due to her inability to read the room and solve everything using logic she is often disliked by members of the hospital staff. But that won't stop her from helping everyone she can, even if she has to be insensitive to do it.

Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective is actually a really fun anime. I enjoyed that all the mysteries revolved around medical illnesses. It kind of felt like Ron Kamonohashi's Forbidden Deductions if he was a doctor instead of a detective. If you enjoy other medical anime's such as Parallel World Pharmacy and Doctor Elise: The Royal Lady with the Lamp, I would suggest giving it a try.

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You Season 2


Its been over a year since the last episode of The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You ended. As a way to mix things up and keep things interesting Kusuri created a drug that changed your personality. However, it backfired and instead had all the girlfriends swap bodies with each other. While it wasn't intentional to swap bodies it had the same effect that the girlfriends were hoping for. As Rentaro goes to get lunch he runs into a middle schooler who had forgotten their wallet. So he decided to split his lunch with her. As he looks into her eyes he realizes that she is another one of his soulmates.

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You Season 2 was super fun to watch. probably my favorite episode was where everyone goes to karaoke together. Something that became common was that Karane and Hakari became a lot closer this season, which I really liked. Though once episode twelve came out I think that Kusuri became my favorite girlfriend. There is some fan service throughout the season like a bath scene as well as Hahari and Hakari's suggestive language. If you try to avoid things with fan service you can skip this one. However, I think that this is my favorite Harem anime of all time. The main character isn't dense to the girlfriends feelings and all the girlfriends are likeable characters in my opinion. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

Solo Leveling Season 2 -Arise from the Shadow-


After sleeping in Jinwoo heads off to a parent teacher conference for his sister Jinah. Her teacher asks jinwoo if he would allow Jinah to be a hunter if she awakened and Jinwoo immediately says no. After hearing his answer she asks a favor of him. Jinwoo visits Song-yi who was part of the team that Jinho Yu hired to take down dungeons with Jinwoo. Together they go to a C-rank dungeon which immediately turns into a red gate or dungeon that you can't escape until the boss is defeated. Unhappy about this last minute arrangement the leader of the group separates jinwoo along with all the hunters that are c-rank and below while he finds the boss.

Solo Leveling Season 2 was super entertaining. I understand why some people are unsatisfied with it. Sure they used a lot of money on the animation, and jinwoo is super overpowered, but I still think its good. I like to see how someone super strong can get continually stronger even if it seems like theres absolutely no reason to. The anime is clean. All the characters dress modestly and nobody swears either. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I’ll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time


Alina Clover has worked the past three years as a adventurers guild receptionist. She was told that it would be a safe job with great benefits where you could wear cute clothes. However, what they didn't tell her is how much overtime she would have every night. She gets so fed up with overtime that she goes into dungeons and defeats the dungeon's boss monsters. However, after some time word spreads about "the executioner". The problem with this is that if she gets found out she could lose her job. Will she be able to keep her activities as "the executioner" a secret, or get found out and punished for it?

I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I'll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time was fun to watch. However, it is one of those anime's where the story is exactly as the title says. Though the title doesn't mention anything about Silver Sword or the dark Gods, so i suppose there is still some mystery to be explored. The anime is totally clean. everybody dresses modestly and swearing is kept to a minimum. If you like fantasy anime I would suggest giving this one a try.

Even Given the Worthless “Appraiser” Class, I’m Actually the Strongest


Ein is an appraiser. A non-combat class that isn't useful for being an adventurer. However, after being betrayed by his party and left on the brink of death he is given a new eye that uses the power of one of the world trees. With this he gains the ability to steal the powers of enemies he defeats and use them for himself. However, he won't be able to do it alone. The spirits who saved him won't let him leave the dungeon until he is sure to survive. That means being able to defeat S-rank monsters without getting seriously wounded.

Even Given the Worthless "Appraiser" Class, I'm Actually the Strongest was probably the best fantasy anime I watched this season. It felt different from your average fantasy anime. Rather than knowing how to use his powers right away, Ein had to train over and over to be able to use his powers. His mission is to reunite his new friends with their family that have been scattered across the world. I think the goal is a lot more cute and fun than most fantasy anime. There is a hot spring scene but its censored. Besides that its a really clean show both in language and visually. If you like fantasy anime I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

Headhunted to Another World: From Salaryman to Big Four!

Dennosuke Uchimura was your ordinary salaryman back in japan. But, after getting summoned by the demon lord, he is asked to become one of the four generals in charge of his army. Unlike most people who are summoned to another world Dennosuke doesn't have any special skills that make him useful in direct combat. However, he does have years of experience working for a company, which is exactly what the demon lord is looking for. Watch as Uchimura uses his skills working in sales to solve issues that arise within the demon lord's territory.

Headhunted to Another World was pretty cool and different from most isekai anime. It showed how you don't need super powers to become an effective leader in another world. looking back it kind of reminds me of I'm Quitting Heroing. The anime is mostly clean but the demons have a culture of wearing revealing clothing to show off their power. If you enjoy fantasy anime, I would suggest giving this one a try.

Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms


Mona Kawai has had the ability to draw people to her since she was born. Thanks to this she believed that she could charm anyone who comes her way. So when a transfer student comes to her school, she tries the same thing she always does with those around her. But instead of being met with a smile, Medaka Kuroiwa glares at her and asks her to stop talking to him. This is a challenge she never thought she would have to face. Mona is determined to do whatever it takes to get Medaka Kuroiwa to fall for her. But will she be able to resist falling for him in the process?

Medaka Kuroiwa is impervious to my charms is my new favorite anime. Thats right! Out of all the anime i've seen, I believe this one is the best. I absolutely love the characters and the story. But the best part of the whole show is the relationship between Mona and Medaka. While it does have some fan service like a bath scene, and a panty shot, there isn't all that much compared to most ecchi anime. The majority of it is in the first episode so if you can get past that, the show is super enjoyable. The language remains clean throughout the show, which is a perk. If you enjoy romance anime I would definitely suggest you give this one a try.

I'm Living With a Otaku NEET Kunoichi?!


Tsukasa Atsumi appeared to be your ordinary Salaryman. And like any japanese salaryman he is almost hit by falling debris off a building as he was walking home. But just before he was about to be crushed a Kunoichi saved him. Shizuri Ideura told Tsukasa that what fell from the sky wasn't debris at all but an attack from a demon. Thanks to Tsukasa having samurai blood he draws demons towards him. Shizuri offered to continue to protect him, but in exchange he would have to let her live her ideal NEET life in his apartment when the demon's aren't attacking. 

I'm Living With a Otaku NEET Kunoichi?! was actually better than I was expecting it to be. It was a typical slice of life anime with a NEET twist to it. The characters are all pretty fun to watch. There is a little bit of fan service such as bath scenes, and the characters wearing revealing outfits. It isn't excessive though. If you like slice of life anime I would suggest giving this one a try.

I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My Class


Saito Hojo is the heir to the Hojo Group. A large company currently run by his grandpa. His school life isn't much different from anybody else's except that a girl named Akane Sakuramori argues with him every chance she can get. One night Saito's grandpa calls him and tells him that unless he gets married to a certain girl the company will be handed off to a stray dog. That girl ends up being Akane Sakuramori. Oddly enough Akane agrees to the arrangement thanks to a similar proposition offered by her grandmother. Now Saito and Akane have to learn to live together all while keeping their marriage a secret from everyone at school.

I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My Class was full of ups and downs. There were some really good episodes and some that were nothing special. I don't think that it was a bad anime, but it definitely wasn't the best romance of the season in my opinion. I wouldn't mind if it got a season 2 though. The characters are all likeable enough and the story is pretty good. I do wish that Akane and Saito weren't constantly arguing though. It kind of ruins the romance aspect of the show. However, if they did stop arguing it would totally make the title of the show meaningless. There are some bath scenes, but nothing too inappropriate in it happens. If you like watching romance anime, I would suggest trying it to see if you like it.

Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time


Takumi Iruma was caught in the middle of a forbidden summoning ritual. However, the goddess Nolyn in her anger closed off the spell which prevents Takumi from going back to Earth. Instead Nolyn gives Takumi a new body, and sends him back a year before the actual summoning along with her blessing, which causes good things to happen to Takumi. Takumi decides right away that he would rather spend his time being a craftsman rather than spending all his time fighting. So his journey to become the greatest Alchemist of All Time begins.

Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time kind of reminds me of Management of a Novice Alchemist. While it does spend a good amount of time on Takumi building various things, there is also a good amount of scenes where Takumi fights monsters. Neither one was overwhelming, which made a good balance for the anime overall. The anime was completely clean. There was no swearing and no fan service. This is an amazing feat since so many isekai anime tend to have some level of fan service. If you like Isekai anime I would definitely suggest giving it a try.

Bogus Skill <<"Fruitmaster">> ~About that time I became able to eat unlimited numbers of Skill Fruits (that kill you)


Light Underwood has always dreamed of being the greatest adventurer of all time. The type of hero who's name goes down in history. So when he gets the skill "Fruit master" That's only good for farming, he is very disappointed. And its impossible to get another skill seeing as eating more than one skill fruit kills you. So Light decides to become a farmer and starts growing skill fruits himself. During this time he takes in a child named Ayla who helps him around the house. One day she decides to put skill fruits in their meal unaware of what they are. Because of this Light gets the skill "Sword God" and Ayla obtains the "Appraisal" skill. With his new combat based skill Light can finally take the first step toward his dream by becoming an Adventurer. 

Bogus Skill <<Fruitmaster>> ~About that time I became able to eat unlimited numbers of Skill Fruits (that kill you) was a pretty cool fantasy anime. It kind of reminds me of The Fruit of Evolution: Before I Knew It My Life had it Made. While it shares some similarities like people getting powers from fruits and using that to become adventurers. It has differences as well, the most noticable being that Bogus Skill isn't a Harem anime, nor is it an isekai. Bogus skill stays mostly clean but there is a shower scene and a bath scene. If you like fantasy anime where the main characters become adventurers this one might be for you. I would definitely suggest giving it a try.
