Love Stage!! (2014)
Should've been a comedy but ended up just being creepy
At first it seemed like it was going to be a comedy as the concept seemed quite funny. Not only has Ryouma been in love with the same girl for 10 years that he only met briefly once when they were 8 years old, but he then finds out this girl is actually a boy. Instead of taking this down a more comedic route they decided to have Ryouma sexually assault Izumi, and throughout the hole show essentially groom him and brain wash him into having some sort of "feelings" towards him. Izumi is clearly just very confused and watching Ryouma take advantage of his unstable mental state just makes for a really creepy and gross viewing experience. And instead of Ryouma getting jail time like he deserves, Izumis family just kind of accept that Ryouma is a nice guy and should be trusted around Izumi. Over all its not a good show, only watch it if you want to get really creeped out.
Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku (2018)
Underwhelming
The protagonist is taken into an MMORPG type world and right at the start becomes a lvl 310 in a world where a lvl 30 is a powerful being. This concept could make an amazing anime where the main character fights entire army's, or insane enemies all in attempts to reach his goal. However, there is no goal, there is hardly any fights and the few it has are insanely underwhelming. He tells no one about his insane power and wealth, living his life as a nobody which makes it irritating to watch knowing how powerful he really is, yet seeing him do nothing with his power. He rellies on his female companions to help quite often despite his clear ability to take care of it himself. It's as if he puts effort into making himself as useless as possible despite essentially being a god. The show just needs more action, he needs to start fighting powerful enemies, he needs to stop getting his friends to do the fighting and he needs to stop being such a useless guy. Don't watch this anime I can recommend far better isekai such as rising of the shield hero, wise man's grandchild, kono suba, re zero. And if you want an anime with an OP main character, then one punch man is the best. He is an over powered guy who actually uses his insane strength even if it isn't recognised.
Hagane no renkinjutsushi (2003)
Not bad but nothing special
I didn't find myself disliking this show. But I didn't feel like I could watch it non stop enjoying every episode like I do with some other animes. It wasn't bad by any means but it just wasn't very enjoyable. It had surprisingly little action and the action it did have wasn't very entertaining. Overall its not very memorable and isn't one of the first animes I would recommend to a new watcher.
Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu (2016)
It's just good. Like really good.
It's got everything you could possibly want from an anime. It has magic, action, alot of comedy, romance and at times its really dark. There's something in it for everyone in this anime and its just a really good show. I would recommend it to anyone.
Masamune-kun No Revenge (2017)
Can't think of a worse ending
You will be disappointed by the ending. The entire shows he is making progress toward his goal, just for the last 3 or so episodes to throw everything he has achieved up to that point out the window. Just as his goal is getting closer he gets set back further than he was to begin with and with only 3 episodes left he doesn't have time to bounce back and the show ended with him further from his goal than he was mid way through. The ending is just bad, however it could easily be fixed with a second season. A second season has not yet been confirmed however so you may watch this show and the terrible ending will be the last you ever see of it. If a second season does come the show should be much better but as it stands the ending is just awful and I wouldn't recommend anyone watch the show unless the second season has been released or is atleast confirmed to be in development. But untill we know for sure if a second season is coming I would stay away from this anime because it is extremely disappointing and has the worst ending I have ever seen.
