![]() ![]() As for the amusing part–this is a genuinely funny show. As for the fan-service–it’s there and it’s nice, but it’s more restrained than I expected, and I really appreciate that. So, I started this one because the premise sounded amusing, and I assumed the fan-service would be well-done. Might be hard to stick with that goal since she seems to be a combat sports and bodybuilding prodigy…and she never stops eating. Akemi is turned on by being surrounded by all that musculature, though, and Hibiki eventually decides to stick around so she can lose weight. Hibiki is lured in by the handsome trainer Machio, but she’s horrified when she realizes just how buff he is and that he aims to make all his charges as macho as possible. The young girl finds herself accompanied by the school’s idol Akemi Souryuuin at the newly opened Silverman Gym. In order to lose weight, high-schooler Hibiki Sakura decides to join a gym. A show that can give me a scene that wonderfully stupid is one that’s earned my attention. But, I’m all here for it because of one single scene: Hajime finally goes after the monster that ate his arm, and Hajime eats its arm while staring it in the eyes. It’s not a great-looking show, and it’s not as cool as it wants to be. I started it because I like stories of a character being betrayed and returning much later as a wholly different individual (ex. As it stands now, though, I am simply entertained by its “super cool” edginess. This is the kind of try-hard isekai trash I would’ve loved years ago. He’s soon joined by the ancient vampire queen Yue after releasing her from her prison, and now the two have vowed to return to Hajime’s world no matter what they have to do or who they have to go through. Hajime’s drive to survive kicks in, though, and the meek nerd is reborn as a one-armed badass wielding a magic gun. Normally, this would be a pretty cool development for an otaku like Hajime, but while his classmites get awesome powers, he gets transmutation…and then he’s betrayed by one of his classmates during a training exercise and left for dead in an extremely dangerous dugeon. Hajime Nagumo and his entire class are transported to a magical world where they are heralded as its saviors. It’s kinda distracting/unnerving.Ĥ) Arifureta: From Commonplace to World’s StrongestĪKA “That Time I Got Reincarnated as an Edgelord” Also, Sempai has a single fang, which isn’t uncommon for anime characters, but it’s flesh-colored in the show. I feel like she’d be a fun character for the other weirdos to play off of. Do wish Madara-san (the chemistry club member) would show up more. It’s an amusing show even if most of the characters have garbage personalities. It gives everything a real breakneck feel, and the jokes rarely have time to settle in before the show moves on (and the punchline is often fan-service provided by the titular Sempai). ![]() This is another of those half-episode length series, and yet they wind up cramming in four or five seperate segments in each one. Now known simply as Assistant, he spends his days with Sempai as she hones her magic skills and tries to conquer her crippling stage fright. He winds up getting roped into the magic club by the hot sempai who runs it. ![]() On his first day of high school, an antisocial kid’s plans to go home after school every day are ruined because the school requires every student be a member of a club. Still trying to figure out how I want to write those posts (yes, plural). I still have one franchise I want to talk about that I binged a month or so ago. Normally this would wrap up the Summer of Anime, but not this time. Second, I tend to ramble when I don’t have much to say, so I wanted to see how much I could cut down on my writing. I know it’s much shorter than usual, but there are a couple of reasons for that. It’s an 8 out of 10!…but you already know that.Īnd that’s gonna do it for this Seasonal Sawce. I do wish the season ended on a higher note, and I really, really wish Aisha would have joined the main crew, but this second season of the main story is still a supremely solid addition to the franchise. I know the stories don’t play out quite as epic as they do in the novels (or so I’ve heard), but I do think the anime’s staff has done a bang-up job of presenting Bell’s efforts to the audience. It was great getting to come back to this cast and world, and I find myself really invested in Bell’s journey. The whole reason Dan Machi edged it out here is simply because I looked more forward to it every week. Spoiler for the end of this segment: It’s an 8 out of 10. Yeah, no changes on the board this season, although Dumbbells came close to unseating DanMachi II.
