Short, non-spoiler reviews and hot takes of anime for the newly initiated weeb.
This season does a good job delving into deeper character backstory and development, specifically between Tohru and Elma in that signature “I’m having more feelings about this than I thought I would” kind of way.
Fantastic animation and some fun new lore tidbits, but didn’t quite feel canonically worthy of “Being a Movie” as opposed to an OVA arc.
Higher levels of conflict, stakes, and emotion, while still maintaining Slime’s signature feel-good vibes (after all is said and done).
An extremely comfy, relaxed, and calming breath of air to have fun with and grow more attached to the characters of Tempest.
A quality Isekai with a fun and positive energy. One of the better ones.
More interesting and with greater political intrigue than previous seasons. Still has some issues with direction and an abundance of seemingly unnecessary details.
Once you accept that this is an Ecchi with Isekai elements, and not the other way around, it's actually enjoyable. Plus, there's an interesting exploration of religious corruption that was more compelling than what the previous season offered.
A beautiful, raw, rattling ride focusing on human trauma in a non-pandering way. For about 70% of the way, then has a disappointing finish.
A magical and soul-stirring piece with beauty musically, emotionally, and artistically.
A beautiful, heart wrenching and heartwarming adventure in a gorgeous fantasy world. With rich world building, heavy topic exploration, and my kryptonite: the "Learn to be Human" trope. Get tissues.
