Sokushi Cheat ga Saikyôsugite, Isekai no Yatsura ga Marude Aite ni Naranain Desu ga (2024)
Terriblely Entertaining
This anime is like a car crash, its terrible yet you can't help but want to watch it happen.
The main character has the ability to kill anything, instantly. There's not draw backs, no weaknesses, if you want to kill him then you instantly die. That sounds about as entertaining as watching paint dry, given you'll always know what happens next.
Yet this show manages to keep you watching with how poorly they show the story. The pacing was giving me whiplash, and they would spend so much time introducing a character and giving them a deep backstory to only kill them off two seconds later.
This show had me laughing "why!" more times than I can count, I always was excited to see just how the next episode would top the stupidity of the last one. And they did a great job. At the end of it all, it was genuinely entertaining. If you go in expecting trash that's fun to watch and mock, you'll have an amazing time.
4/10 execution, 7/10 entertainment.
Tensei shitara ken deshita (2022)
Another compelling story with vile tropes
The base of this anime is a standard power leveling Isekai, where the goal of the MC who's a sword is to help a cat girl child, Fran, evolve, something her species has never done before. Nothing too special but the leveling and fights are compelling and well done, and it doesn't pull punches. The reason I started watching was that for the first time in a while we get an Isekai protagonist who is against slavery, and Frans journey of evolving also incorporates themes of overcoming discrimination and helping to save her people from a life of subjugation. The relationship with Fran and the sword named "Teacher" is that of father daughter, but there are moments where the animes teeters the line a bit with some uncomfortable scenes. The first is a bathing scene, where Fran drags the sword to a bathhouse and wants to clean him while naked. I could barely write that off as father daughter activities? It's still uncomfortable and I mostly skipped over it. That next part that got me to drop the anime was with the Guilds pedo-esq stalker who harasses Fran despite her clearly being uncomfortable. It's supposed to be funny, it just end up being vile. Don't bother with this one unless you want to deal with that garbage, there are better shows out there.
Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song (2021)
Amazing
Id put this series up with the greats such as Stiens Gate or Neon Genesis Evengelion. The story, animation, music, are all on point.
The best part, is its only 14 episodes, so it doesn't take ages to watch, but each episode is incredibly meaningful and help drive the story along. *Very Light Spoilers* One of the better points of the show is how the main character vivy grows throughout the series. She starts out emotionless, and very much like a robot, but as time moves forward she grows into an almost human being.
Anyway, for any fan of anime I'd say this is a must watch.
