To be very honest
Mysterygeneration14 January 2024
To be very honest, this anime has been among the worst I've watched this year. A headless story that isn't quite sure what it wants to be, what at first glance seemed to be a promising yuri fantasy slice of life ended up being a mishmash of concepts that lead to nowhere. It pretends to be an ecchi comedy in some chapters (though it is not a comedy), gets "dark" and edgy in others, and appears to be trying to imitate Shonen in some other chapters by giving the protagonist unexpected power-ups that allow her to overcome any obstacles in her path, no matter how seemingly difficult they may seem.

The anime's weakest aspect is its cast of characters, particularly Komarin, who all come across as one-dimensional and lifeless. She is a Mary Sue protagonist that gives off the impression of being weak, but this is all a front as she is extremely powerful because not only does her strength arrive out of nowhere, but also comes to her for little or no cost, eliminating any chance of growth because it never happens. If her Mary Sue abilities weren't enough, she also has an incredibly irritating disposition. She acts in a way that makes it hard to sympathize with her since she is erratic, stuck-up, annoying, and irritated.
