What can I say that hasn't already been said? This is a great adaptation if you're looking for something that's faithful to the source material. I would say that Alucard was a breath of fresh air compared to vampire media coming out around it's time, but that in itself is as cliche as the "still a better love story than Twilight" meme said time period spawned. So I will say this. If you love vampires, werewolves, Vatican supersoldiers, the "ghostapo" trope, references to obscure alchemical texts and western esotericism in general, then this one's for you. Definitely the perfect choice of anime to watch for Halloween as well if you're feeling festive around October.

this is surprisingly better than most of this seasons high budget anime. great characters and writing, sometimes funny, sometimes sentimental, sometimes inspiring, it feels like reading someone's old diary.

Much faster paced than the original, liked it quite a bit better as it no longer feels as if you are being dragged along for incremental advancements to the story. The stylized animation and action sequences are top notch as well.

I loved the premise though the series slowed down for me after they were no longer running for their lives, still very weird and a little gross (when thinking about all the things he's doing with his bodily fluids)

I wasn't originally planning on watching it but when I found a meme on discord linking it to the DR series. House so I figured I'd watch it since I grew up on House.

I have to say it's more or less similar to house but I miss his sarcastic humor that he used to be known for and always knew how to make me laugh, this way it's just one big drama/tragedy with nothing to lighten it up and I don't enjoy watching that.

The FMC doctor was annoying with her behaviour and the side characters didn't impress me much either. Compared to house it's half the length so in most of the ep. right in the middle the cause was clear and by the end of the ep. it was just explaining how it all happened. That's so the whole animation wasn't bad, the OP didn't impress me but I liked the ED (at least something) for me 6/10

PS: detective kimiyasu bears a striking resemblance to detective columbo. For myself, I'd rather stick with house.

You have a FL, who is an unknowing participant in a terrible act, finding herself, overcoming her weakness, plotting revenge against all odds, gathering companions, bearing the advances of a terrible, psychopathic man-child. Outnumbered, outmatched and not the best at what she does, but trying desperately. Fighting battle after battle on the front lines, overcoming, sacrificing, while deep inside hating her very existence. And then you have that overpowered, sheltered saintess drinking tea and ruminating about how deeply she loves her sister. Honestly, this is a great story, just the protagonist of it is not who's on the cover...

A kaleidoscope of madness for the most ardent fans of this story that are ready to watch anything.

From what I noticed, you only picked characters that had a sad backstory and also had the best stats, what if they didn't have a sad backstory so you wouldn't have picked them? Is that my understanding that without them they would just be average people?

I don't know but I wasn't entertained by the plot, the characters weren't anything special either and I'm not interested in a sequel. The only thing I liked was the OP. for me 6/10

I don't like the last story about the bakery-boy. It's too "forced" here, I think. The rest of the anime is a great philosophical treatise on thinking and people's attitudes towards each other and towards science/believe during the religious dictatorship of the Middle Ages. Very good atmosphere and art... At one time in the past I was very irritated and disappointed by "talk anime genre" because of the Kemono-series(Bakemonogatari and so on). Many praised it, it has a good rating, but I hated this colorful circus pathos of that anime. But then stories like this one corrected my attitude and now I can happily recommend it to everyone else. There will be no fantasy or science fiction. Magic or action. There will be thinking.

I miss this type of anime. The like of Ninja Scroll, Wicked City and even Perfect Blue. When anime was about telling an adult story for adult. Not the censored, juvenile, fanservecey we see nowadays.

Character development really gets good in this season.
Same humor balanced with serious moments.

The story really starts to develop but this season falls short in a few ways.
The formula is the same but it just feels a bit off.
Still worth watching, if you're invested in the characters or story.

It's good but looses a lot of steam in the latter half of the story.

Ending didn't turn out quite as expected but still good in it's own right. Not perfect, and for this reason little more realistic but little less acceptable personally. It's a story about magic trees, why the hell would you go for realistic ending?

I mean, at some point it already became a fully fledged time paradox, so why not go for a few more with the aim to save everyone and overwrite history and Aika's decision, since we already crossed that bridge and fked the timeline? Alas, their choice is disappointing.

A magical girl show that turns into cosmic horror. After reflecting on what happens here, this is one of the most well done psychological horror fiction works. It's surprising that this does not rely much on violence, rather on appealing to existentalism and human condition.

It's mostly a slice of life, with a bit of comedy, and a slow romance as background. The theme is nothing new: a country girl makes her debut in a Tokyo high school. The main character is rather interesting, with a peculiar mind and a distinctive voice in the original soundtrack. The best part of the show was some secondary characters and their interactions.

It could have been much better. The male lead is at often bland, and his backstory feels so fake it's hard to relate. The last third of the series (a school festival) was also lacking inspiration. I'll try the S2, and hope they've regained some steam.

Nowadays if anyone wants to learn something, they can obtain it through a book, online, asking someone, etc., but this takes place during the medieval times where those conveniences weren't possible. This follows a group of characters and their collaboration between religion and science. All the characters are solid, but the stand out is Nowak (villain), he's down-to-earth and thinks his methods are right, but is ruthless... a complex character. The overall journey was thought-provoking and solid, although I wasn't a fan of the final episodes. In the end, this series asks the question of "what would you do for the pursuit of knowledge?"... endure torture, risk being shunned or death? Most wouldn't, but this series explores that.

A boring anime, boring concept, dull characters, unimpressive animation, terrible MC.

An interesting watch. Villainess/isekai/game type anime have a way of drawing a diverse audience when done well and this one is no exception. A pleasant way to spend a few hours if one is a fan of Villainesses not being very villainous but still trying hard at it.
