Scorching Ping Pong Girls episodes 1-12 (Complete. Though the elements that made up the series were quite familiar this was still a pleasant enough ping-pong themed series.) 3.5/5
The Magical Revolution of the Princess and the Young Lady ep1: Hey, it's exactly the same plot as one of the weaker backstories from Ningen Fushin the other day, except this time it's told in full rather than being crammed into a momentary flashback and the characters are better fleshed-out. As I thought, the (very unoriginal) backstory works way better like this. As for the show itself, it grated at first but ended up being decently watchable. The isekai elements are pointlessly tacked-on and most of the characters are imbeciles but this was still one of the better examples of its genre that we've had lately. I choose to believe that hereafter the series becomes a cute yuri adventure where the leads charge around deconstructing the patriarchy, but it will probably just be lighthearted magic item collection nonsense. Extra points for avoiding falling back on slavery, revenge, tedious internal monologues and demonising all of the female characters right from the start, which are tropes of the genre which need to die sooner rather than later.
Ice Guy, etc ep 1 (dropped)
The same joke over and over! Seems it might have been quite a sweet romance if they took that stuff out! Also the pacing was terrible, feels like a 4-koma adaptation with none of the connective tissue added in like with Bocchi. Source says Web manga, I guess those can be as short or as long as they want, although I saw some comments saying they were short.
Every new director should have to read Bocchi the Rock and then watch the anime to learn how to adapt similar types of short form manga. Don't just use the manga as a storyboard, you're making an anime use all the tools you have, and also cut or add things that make the story flow smoothly!I'm not surprised to hear it hasn't transitioned to anime well, particularly the earlier content which was repetitive
My Life as Inukai-san's Dog ep 1 (uncensored)
Ecchi trash Guy gets reincarnated(?) as a dog and his sexy classmate finds in the street. First episode is mostly POV of them in the shower/bath. I assume the rest will be various situations where Pochita(!) gets an eyeful and to add some variety there were 2 other girls in the ED.
