Anime spotlight - Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches
This was a cute and fun series with likeable characters a good sense of humour and a cute romance. Its just a shame that all the time and care it started with setting up the characters, their relationships and the mystery of the witches was then rushed in the last three eps.
The plot is when Ryuu Yamada entered high school, he wanted to turn over a new leaf and lead a productive school life. That's why he chose to attend Suzaku High, where no one would know of his violent delinquent reputation. However, much to Ryuu's dismay, he is soon bored; now a second year, Ryuu has reverted to his old ways—lazy with abysmal grades and always getting into fights.
One day, back from yet another office visit, Ryuu encounters Urara Shiraishi, a beautiful honors student. A misstep causes them both to tumble down the stairs, ending in an accidental kiss! The pair discover they can switch bodies with a kiss: an ability which will prove to be both convenient and troublesome.
Learning of their new power, Toranosuke Miyamura, a student council officer and the single member of the Supernatural Studies Club, recruits them for the club. Soon joined by Miyabi Itou, an eccentric interested in all things supernatural, the group unearths the legend of the Seven Witches of Suzaku High, seven female students who have obtained different powers activated by a kiss. The Supernatural Studies Club embarks on its first quest: to find the identities of all the witches.
I firmly believe this was meant to be 24 episode and suddenly the production team found out it was going to be 12 so everything had to be wrapped up in 3 eps that felt rushed and confusing. Its a shame because I was really enjoying it until suddenly witches were being revealed with new powers and dynamics between the cast and then we had to have a conclusion.
I really liked the body swapping that was a lot of fun and the dynamic between the main cast, I was into the mystery and finding out the powers and back story of the witches but it did get confusing and didnt give you enough time to process the events in the end. I still enjoyed the show but felt a little robbed.

Spring 2023 Anime Review
Sorry this is late - I was in Japan for a month and a half
Oshi No Ko
The series that easily stole the #1 spot this season.
It really stands out, I've never seen a story like this one and it really hits hard.
The episodes feel real and definitely show a side of the film/idol industry that a lot of people brush over. It's such a great concept and I'm thoroughly looking forward to future seasons.
10/10 - Masterpiece
Demon Slayer - Season 3
I really can't stress how next level Ufotable's animations are and you really get to see it in this season.
The story itself is also picking up the pace with my guess of 2 more seasons before the series is completed, it's such a great feeling to really experience the series moving forward and being able to get to know more of the key characters introduced in season 1.
A really killer season packed into a reasonable amount of time and episodes.
9.5/10 - Amazing
Hell's Paradise
I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, but this really didn't hit as hard as I thought it would. The manga was impeccable and I guess the anime just didn't live up to it.
I also felt that some of the animations were lackluster, which is surprising for MAPPA.
Maybe they're really starting to feel the weight of having to work on so many titles.
I'm hoping the next season feels better, the second half of the series is really where it picks up and is what makes everything worth it.
7.5/10 - Good+
Mashle
Honestly one of the best comedy series I've seen in a while, I kept thinking maybe it wouldn't hit as hard the next episode but it always did. Excellent Harry Potter memeage and overall comedy.
8/10 - Very Good
Dr. Stone S3
This took me a second to get back into but once I started watching, I really got into it, it's honestly such a good series. I feel like we're really headed toward the main story now and things are picking up the pace. Was a solid season for the story.
8/10 - Very Good
My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999
I loved this series so much. It was a bit of a slowburn but so very wholesome. I think it reminded me a bit of a younger wotakoi if that makes sense. just realistic and cute, the last episode is 100% a killer payoff, very much like jdramas where it's not over the top and you're stoked about the tiniest thing. definitely a couple i support all the way.
8/10 - Very Good
Heavenly Delusion
This season did such a 180 for me. I loved the initial concept of post-apocalyptic survival vs the captive kids but man did it get uncomfortable fast. There were just way too many naked kids and borderline harassment scenarios that I felt super icky watching the show. It could've gone such a different direction without all that stuff and be amazing.. End of the day the series was novel and that stuff wasn't the whole show.
7/10 - Good
Gundam: Witch from Mercury Season 2 - Part 2
I was a huge fan of the first season, the story was solid, the characters were great and in general it was just a really good season.
I had a much harder time with this season, it felt way more political and felt a little more rushed than i'd like.
6.5/10 - Fine+
With the new season coming out this weekend I'll post this and add to it when I complete the following 2 shows:
The Dangers in My Heart
Skip to Loafer
