Shin Shinka no Mi: Shiranai Uchi ni Kachigumi Jinsei

Now I usually don't mind trashy Isekai but holy shit this was on another level, this had me questioning my own sanity. The overwhelming cringe had me actively looking away multiple times per episode. The pacing was waaaaayyyyy too slow and had me questioning what the actual fuck I just watched. Character development started well but somewhere in the middle it just stopped and became some god-awful singing bullshit. Please for the love of everything that is holy DO NOT WATCH this cringefest. By far the single worst piece of media I have ever consumed, finishing this anime has made me reevaluate my life andanime consumption as a whole. I highly recommend anyone who actively chooses to watch this go to therapy after.

TL:DR; "This anime made me question my sanity and taste in anime. At points I thought I was hallucinating because the show had a Dora the Explorer vibe to it half-way though for some reason. Overall, I wish I could use the main bad guy's ability to erase this fever dream of a sequel from our world." I hate this anime with a passion, which is a shame, because I somewhat enjoyed the first season. Shin Shinka no Mi: Shiranai Uchi ni Kachigumi Jinsei is a nightmare of a sequel. It follows the same formula as the first season, with Seiichi Hiiragi and his harem ofbeast girls facing off against various threats in a fantasy world. The only difference? It does everything worse. The animation quality is abysmal, with choppy movements and bland backgrounds. The characters are either one-dimensional or annoying, and the conflicts are resolved too easily or conveniently(final episode was the biggest slap to the face). The anime tries to introduce some new elements, such as Seiichi’s students from Earth who are enrolled in a magic academy, and a cult that wants to resurrect the demon lord. But these elements are poorly executed in ways that completely disrupt the pacing of the entire anime. There was a point when I realized that you could remove them from the show and nothing would be lost, but if you did that the anime would be 3 or four episodes long. The anime does not have any originality or creativity, and it feels like the worst generic isekai harem anime that DOES stand out from the crowd in how terrible it is. The only redeeming factor of this anime is the catchy opening and ending songs by nano and Erii Yamazaki respectively, but they are not enough to save this disaster. The anime does not have any memorable moments or scenes that make it worth watching. The anime is a waste of time and potential, and I do not recommend it to anyone. Lastly, this anime made me question my sanity and taste in anime. At points I believed I was hallucinating, because the show had a Dora the Explora vibe to it half-way though. Overall, I wish I could use the main bad guy's ability to erase this sequal from our world.

Preface/Intro: ---- OK, so this was definitely an anime! I can say that much. Now here's the kicker, it may be bad, but it's "somewhat good bad". Art/Animation: ---- OK, so we got some average-looking animation on an average-looking anime, BUT, some of the girls are QUITE kawaii; although it does include a rather large amount of gorilla boobies. 5/10 Story/Plot: ---- The guy is a guy who is always kind, and the girls love him because they do. There really isn't that much of a story, it just all kind of 'happens'. But pretty much if I had to summarize, MC goes to magic school, and funny antics ensue includingsheer terror. 5/10 Characters: ---- The man who would fuck a gorilla. The man who has such bad body odor said gorilla confused it for pheromones upon their original meeting. The man who named a small child his younger sister, a donkey his servant, a calamity his girlfriend, and a gorilla his wife. This man goes by many names, but the one he does go by is Seichi. Seichi is a chad, he'd fuck that gorilla. He ALONE, pays reparations for the tragic events that occurred on May 28, 2016. 7/10 Personal Enjoyment: ---- Ok, so you got a pretty ok to mediocre anime here. Well deserving of a 5. BUT, I say with utmost certainty not to overwrite this anime, FOR, HIDDEN AMONG THE MUCK, IS A GEM, a gem so beaautiful ANOS VOLDIGOLD dares not speak of it. A diamond in the rough. This anime sucks,but it's the good kind of suck. It's the kind of suck that includes god-awful amounts of references to Jojo, and even pays homage to the great and glorious Neon Genesis Evangelion. It sucks, and it sucks, but it suck so bad, it's actually kind of good. 9/10 Overall: ---- IDK man, it was pretty mid, but the badness of it made it not that bad but still not great so I dont really even know 7/10

The first season of The Fruit of Evolution was actually a moderately fun watch. The second season... takes it too far. This is one of those anime where you suspend disbelief, turn off your brain, and just go with it. You are supposed to laugh where it intends you to laugh and feel where it intends you to feel. For the first season, this worked. It took some effort but it worked. The Fruit of Evolution's use of anime tropes and especially "The power of love and friendship can conquer anything" are blatantly and egregiously in play. So much so that it is easy to believethat the entire anime is a parody of the isekai genre and anime in general and that they are poking fun at the blatant overuse of such concepts in most plot lines. But the second season Takes This Too Far. In the first season we saw liberal use of the "Enemies to friends" trope and "Murderers wanting to be rehabilitated" but in those cases it actually made some semblance of sense. In the second season, the first episode opens with a tragedy, one that tugs at the heartstrings of the audience if they had grown to care about the characters at all. The entirety of the season the audience is led to hope that such a horrible outcome can be avoided and to wait in anticipation for how our heroes will be able to avoid or overcome the dark future that was foretold. However... no effort is made to prepare or avoid or even share this dark prophecy. The secret future hardship is left between the audience and the oblivious protagonist. The final episode is a culmination of all of these fears and pent up anxiety, and viewers of the first episode will feel noticeable deja vu upon watching the final. Sad to say, the final episode is handled poorly. Plot lines resolve themselves in a very unsatisfying and perhaps even anger educing way that leaves quite a bad taste in the mouth for the series. Be a silly parody anime, or be a serious anime that makes the audience feel. Don't make the audience feel and then try to resolve their emotions with over the top comedic stupidity that magics away the problem.
