Lonely little thread
No one is posting in you Now I have fixed that But seriously, an ANN review that no one wrote a hearty approval of or an angry protests against? Is the world ending? Or did nobody watch this series? |

Or maybe the show is just that generic and underwhelming? No need to post if you have nothing to add to it.

I bought this show when it came out and watched it through. It is not the sort of show that will set people's passions ablaze but I found to be very good entertainment. Which is what I bought it for.
I didn't set out to defend the show because it doesn't bother me that someone else has a different opinion. I have never quite understood all the hate and discontent about what amounts to a matter of taste. |

I am watching this on YouTube as Nozomient (Right Stuf's distribution wing) releases it. I have found it to be quite entertaining. I love the variety of magical systems it uses and the obvious care that went into the research by the original author of the light novel series. I also find that, when the main complaint about a series is the level of cliches it uses, I don't find that nearly as offensive as the majority of hard core anime fans, since I have only been watching anime and reading manga/light novels for about two years now, I haven't seen all of the shows that used the cliches before, so they are not that old to me...
I have seen several harem shows that use the standard harem tropes, but frankly, I don't know what reviewers expect to find in a harem comedy other than well worn harem cliches? Part of what makes it funny seeing how the author will incorporate the story elements that the view/reader expects to see in a novel environment. This show provides a nice environment for the familiar with enough novelty in the magical systems to make it interesting, at least to the less jaded in the audience... |

...except now people are actually leaving their opinions, and I like getting viewer second-opinions. Also, I like writing haikus. |
