Beast Tamer
Tweekums2 January 2023
This anime series is centre on Rein; he is a 'beast tamer' in a fantasy world. He was part of Arios, a hero's, party but other members thought his skills to be of little worth so kicked him out. While looking for new work he rescues Kanade. She is a member of a cat tribe, one of the superior species. By taming her he also gains her powers. As the series progresses he tames more superior species. With each one tamed his powers grow and his old allies start to wonder if they made a mistake when they expelled him.

I thought this was a fun little series if not the most original. It is clearly a harem series but manages to avoid excessive fan service. The story is fun and our protagonists are likable. There aren't too many surprises to be had... we can guess any threat Rein encounters will become part of his group if she happens to be a cute girl. The animation and character designs are solid enough. Overall I'd say this is worth a watch if you enjoy the genre. The end of the series suggests that what we've just watched is just the start of the story... whether or not more will be made is less obvious, I suspect not but would watch if there is more.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

Light-hearted fun, fantasy-adventure for the family
bill_allison8 January 2023
This is a light fluffy series good to relax with and suitable for the family. Even though Rein, the Beast Tamer, accumulates a harem of cute demi-humans, it is like a family and not presented in a perverted or sexual manner.

The story begins with Rein kicked out of a "Hero" team and called useless. Rein is depressed and feels low self worth as he begins a solo career as an adventurer. Rein gradually accomplishes tasks and proves himself. He accumulates his own team of special creatures who support him and make him stronger.

This has a good combination of action adventure, quests, comedy and friendly fun. There are some nasty villains to create dramatic tension but not any blood and gore. This may be boring to some, but just right for others. I think this will share an audience with Land of Leadale. I personally find Leadale slightly more appealing, but Beast Tamer has better animation.

A PAINT BY NUMBERS ANIME
adudecalleddan12 October 2023
If you're looking for an anime with a unique plot, you won't find thar here. In fact, as far as storytelling goes, it's pretty paint by numbers for this genre, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

The anime is light and fluffy with cute characters that stretches the "Babe of the Week" storytelling across a 12-episode season.

My main gripes of the first season is the complete lack of character development and the fact that Reign is just too much of a nice guy. Especially with someone who has childhood trauma, it's amazing how he just cuts through the nonsense to get to the point, especially in the final episodes.

I don't know if there's going ro be a second season, but if there is, it needs to address the character development issues immediately.

Generic "kicked out of hero's party"
retraigo25 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
It feels like most other "kicked out of the hero's party because I was useless" story.

  • MC is in the hero's party.


  • MC has a non-combatant role.


  • MC is kicked because they found someone else to replace him.


It's okay till here because that's what most similar stories do.

  • MC suddenly gets portrayed as a very powerful character.


It's still okay because it makes sense that you don't know the true worth of something you have till you can't possess it anymore.

Where does it get worse?

  • MC gets a harem of demi-human girls.


Yes. No, I don't hate harems in general. This one just felt too much.

However, the series isn't fully bad. Since it is not a revenge story, it doesn't feel bad watching the MC build a harem. If you forget logic and you just want a fluffy anime, it does the job.

Why i love it and you will too
noshineprethu16 December 2022
For not taking it too far but still maintain the echii scene well. It is a good experience. There is no complain it's perfect And really like the story really can't wait to see more and the best thing is the animation. For some reason i really like the animation it really feel unique just got the feel like watching rent a girlfriend vibe lol.

It has a good story and plot so i didn't see any reason why i won't like it so really it's awsome 10 Out Of 10 One of the best animation in my opinion and the story is sick.

I really hope to see more of this anime. Well like i said it's perfect and some dogs will bark at this anime just let them bark.

A Perfect Non-Isekai Harem Anime with OP Protagonist with High Fantasy setting
shuvongkor20 April 2023
There are lots of harem anime out there but most of them are just wanna be harem anime. Meaning the harem element is not the focus of those anime. The existent of Harem Element in those anime/Manga are useless and meaningless and not important at all. Writers include Harem Elements in those anime/manga as a FAN service and to get popularity/attention.

Well, this is different and unique. In "Beast Tamer", the protagonist must build a harem of powerful girls in order to became OP and continue his adventure. Otherwise, he won't be able to save the world. Since his world setting is High Fantasy there are very powerful being like beast, gods, monsters, demi-gods, demons and even Demon King. He needs to become OP. The story is great and simple to understand. The animation is beautiful. And there are no ecchi stuff, no nudity or 18+ scene. So, if you are a FAN of Harem anime that has High Fantasy setting, start watching this anime right now and became one with the protagonist and enjoy like it is your adventure. It's not realistic but it's what we Harem Fans want. A Harem with a Harem Ending in a Harem Anime.

A series for fun
malayakumar-2781016 February 2023
This series is not a must watch still decent.you can have fun watching this.all characters art style are good and likeable.you can watch it incase of change of pace.although everything in this series is predictable still it is ok. Another overpowered main character in a unique way.the protagonist isn't overpowered on his own but by some others he is the strongest.well you can find out after watching this.the power system is unique and i liked the concept.this had the potential but couldn't held its place strong.still im waiting for S2 hoping for some good actions and romance.there was no romance at all in S1 and that pissed me off.

This is the best anime in history and most underrated
gavinhaux13 July 2023
I started watching beast humor earlier this year at first I was extremely skeptical, but it turned out to be one of the most amazing most underrated anime out there, because the story is extremely simple to understand, and is extremely well written, and deserves more than just five star reviews because I rate this 1 million out of 10 and 1 million out of five stars because this is the best anime I've ever seen. Everyone deserves to watch it and it is extremely family friendly although I wish they were other family friendly animes out there like this one and spy family. And I think there needs to be anime, like beast tamer I think there should be more family-friendly anime out there, because I think family-friendly anime are the best kind of anime to watch along with good romance, anime as well but best hammer I think should be the number one enemy out there, and it will always hold a special place in my heart, because how well written, and heartwarming it is and that is my review.
