Reviews for Magical Sempai

A great and hilarious show with looots of fanservice. The art style was amazing in lots of ways. On one hand it really made the fanservice shine, on the other hand it draws out the comedy scenes The comedy in this anime was reeeally great too. Can't count how many times I laughed in this show. As it's a collection of short stories in short episodes this anime doesn't have that much story and the characters also just feel like an element for the show. There is some slight character development tho but most of the time they have their personality and stick to it. There's also one characterthat's highlighted pretty much in op and ed but didn't get much screen time at all, which is a bit disappointing.

Overall it's a great show you'll definitely enjoy watching and as it's not that long too you can watch it anytime I think

Before I watched the first episode of Tenjina Senpai (Magical Sempai), a little voice told me it would be a very comical experience. From the character interactions and premise itself, this show felt like one that was based off of memes and satirical humor. Is Magical Sempai really a meme or something much deeper than meets the eye? With 12 half length episodes, Magical Sempai runs a trend of adapting storytelling in the form of humorous skits. Every episode contains various segments that connects the overall themes of the show. At the heart is the Magic Club, run by titular character Sempai. Joining him is ayoung boy going by the name “Assistant”. Make no mistake, it seems that the author didn’t really want to identify our main leads by actual names. However, that’s not a significant problem. What you should be concerned about is how an anime about magic performances can be translated into entertainment.

For starters, you should never take this anime seriously as the show itself seems to be very self-aware. The first episode deals with the activities of the Magic Club. To be fair, Sempai is actually skilled but when faced with an audience, she suffers from stage fright and ends up embarrassing herself. There’s an immense amount of jokes that pokes fun of her stage fright at every chance it gets. These usually ends up with various innuendos and adult humor. Ecchi is a common sight as there’s panty shots in almost every episode. Sempai gets tied up often by her own performances and becomes a main source of fan service. Hell, it seems the anime even loves to put Sempai in sexy outfits ranging from gym clothes to Chinese dresses. If you came for fan service, you're going to be pleased.

Despite being the main characters, we do meet a few others ranging from Sister (the Magic Club advisor), Madara-chan (Chemistry club president), Saki-chan and her overweight brother, Masashi. Their purpose in the show is mostly to amplify the comedy with their various personalities. Most of them somehow gets involved in one way or another with the Magic Club. Saki-chan is also a target for fan service once you see how much she is advertised. With this ridiculous cast of characters, you really should just sit back and watch this with an bucket of popcorn. We’re not going to see much character development. The anime’s goal is to entertain in the most straightforward way possible. It uses its skits that focuses on daily activities at school, mostly associated with the Magic Club.

I’m not a big fan of magic although this show actually focuses some of its screen time to explain the various tricks and performances. Most of this is explained by Sempai in a casual style while inserting its gimmicky humor. There’s actually a decent amount of magic performances such as card tricks, spoon-bending techniques, the box illusion, pulling pigeons out of hats, etc. If you’re familiar with magic, you’ve probably heard or seen most of them before. When translated into this anime, it becomes more of a meme with how silly it turns out to be.

It’s not a full length anime but having a show like this is no less than some popcorn entertainment. Every episode contains enough skits to entertain while poking fun of the characters’ personalities. Sempai is the poster girl who also becomes the main source of jokes in the show. Whether you like her character isn’t all that important. In essence, you’re going to just have to take what Magical Sempai throws at you. Then in the end, somehow, some way, you may not regret it.

Ladies and Gentlemen , this 12 min long anime has just ended. So: Story Pros: Every once a while we get to see a variation of Hutaro from Daganshi Kishi, play this fumbling Magician wannabe, who happens to the last one in her club. Cons: Basically, the plot about her were it has more to do with her panchira and big size melons than the anything else.Verdict 3/10

Art

Pros: That would be the girls panchira ( where Tejina has the most), and bust size of the 2 girls except the 4 eyes one.

Cons: I kinda hate that the boys were illustrated as dorksters, were one was more of a skinny gaming loner and the other one ought be a sumo wrestler with his big stomach.

Verdict 7/10

Sound

Pros: Tejina's cutie voice and the opening.

Cons: Kitamura Eri was just too old to voice Saki.

Verdict 8/10

Character

Pros: It has more to do with the eye candy Tejina's panchira and boobs, in fact her assets were pretty much the character around here.

Cons: Tejina was simply annoying, not to mention about her being this double standard bimbo, who like magic but can't stand audience, Saki on the other hand was more like a bitch with poor taste in men, like c'mon being this brocon to her fatso ototo. Also, it was kinda annoying that Madara's character was never fully utilize by this anime's director Usui, Fumiaki of LINDENFILMS.

Verdict 3/10

Enjoyment

Pros: I basically have mixed reactions with this anime, cu'z in one hand it was enjoyable. But.................

Cons: There was that part of me were I'm soooo pissed about this anime.

Verdict 6/10

Overall

Verdict 3/10

It was Ok to some extent, but this ain't worth a 7 and above and only those with a Hotaru fetish would give this a high score and those who can't get enough of voluptuous school girl eyecandy like that of Tejina would go for it.

This show reminds me very much of Aho Girl. If you enjoy shows that aren't serious and you don't mind cheap jokes and forced ecchi-ness, then this anime might be for you. Sempai is a magician wannabe who fails at every trick she attempts. Each failure results in embarrassment with erotic innuendos. The jokes are lowbrow. Even Assistant-kun's reactions show the same sentiments within the show; no one tries to mask the cheapness of it all. There are parts of this show that made me laugh and I very much wanted to like it a lot, (especially because I really enjoyed Aho Girl), but alas, thehumour and characters both miss the mark.

Given that the episodes are short (about 12 mins), it's an easy watch to pass time. Actually, each episode is further divided into parts, which appeals to my short attention span. Each "story" is around 4 minutes, so this is a show to have on hand when you don't have long lengths of time to spare.

Takeaway: An anime to watch when you need a short comic break. (Especially if you're really tired from work and don't have the mental capacity to judge how cheap the jokes are.)

I've been watching this on Crunchyroll where it goes by the title of Magical Sempai. I usually don't look for ecchi series, but after seeing a couple memes and comments on YouTube, I decided to give this show a shot. It did not disappoint. Each episode is roughly 15 minutes with 5 shenanigans each, for bite size bits of bumbling magic and mayhem. The jokes are fun with just enough ecchi to help the comedy without overpowering the mix. There is nothing groundbreaking about this show, but its not trying to be anything more than good fun. I recommend this show to anyone looking for alittle anime frivolity in their day and hope that the show will continue to deliver laughs.

Out of all the shows that came out this season, this one (and Try Knights) were the least impressive of the bunch. This just came off as a little trite and boring in the first couple of episodes. Thankfully, after the first two episodes, the show starts getting it's groove of making itself 100% cheese and it kinda works. I'm not saying I'm gonna come back for this show, but as a way to get my fan service for the last 12 weeks, it wasn't a bad thing at all. The production, all things considered, is actually decent for what it is. The animation is niceto look at and occasionally can be a little pretty. The music is just kinda goofy. The OP is basically an ear worm and while the ED is nice, it isn't the greatest contrast to the OP. Yeah, I know this is a stupid criticism for a show that's basically what I wish the magic club in my school was like, but it's still there.

Look, if a show like this can make me laugh with a stupid line like "Take back my boner", then you can probably enjoy. Really the biggest strength comes in with VAs and the writing. The VAs are what really make this show enjoyable for what it is, especially Senpai and Assistant, who bring a lot of life into the roles that easily could've been stale in episode 4. The writing isn't amazing, but it does manage to have some good jokes, at least one every episode, but the show does heavily rely on misunderstandings as jokes. But the show can also the nice moment here and there. It's surprising considering the material they had.

Overall, Tenjina-senpai is a stupid, but fun show. I don't see myself returning but I won't say I didn't enjoy myself while watching. If you want to see magic + a lot of fan-service, this show isn't the worst thing to watch.

I recommend this anime to watch, for those of you who are bored and need sugar intake, then this anime is the answer. But I also wouldn't recommend it for those of you whose tastes aren't anime like this, This anime is nothing more than mere entertainment, the story is decent, not too bad and not too good. By the way, I've re-watched this anime three times, and this is the first time I'm giving a review, so maybe the impression I have of this anime is just normal. The character design is good, and doesn't show too much of a perverted side, so for those ofyou who don't really like perverted things, I think this will suit you.

No honest person is watching Tejina-senpai for reasons above gag comedy smothered with fanservice. Fair criticism of Tejina-senpai must come in how the fanservice is actually being delivered and, to a degree of lesser importance, whether or not the comedy is effective. It is there that I take issue with this anime’s lukewarm at best approach to eroticism and a repetitive punchline that wears itself thin as the episodes progress. The gist of Tejina-senpai is that Tejina has a sexy body that through failed magical acts is exposed to the gaze of the viewer. But this anime goes out of it’s way to ensure that theentirety of Tejina's body is censored. There is always a random object magically obstructing nudity and even at one point milktoast MC kun’s hand excitedly waving over her chest to ensure the viewer cannot see. This may seem like a pedantic criticism only uttered by degenerates of the highest order, of which I am one, but if you are watching this anime primarily for the fanservice it can feel like a slap in the face to be teased with the full picture only to get a snapshot and wonder about the possibilities. Sometimes censorship can be forgiven with a distinct artstyle that is well defined enough to encourage the viewer to use their own creative imagination, but the artstyle of this anime is very generic, far from that of Dagashi Karashi where the designs of the characters are utterly gorgeous even without ever being exposed. Such is not the case in Tejina senpai where the attractiveness of the characters is limited to the proportion of their bodies. Censorship may also be forgiven if the fanservice is delivered in creative ways and the characters engage in some form of intimacy - Kiss x Sis would be the pinnacle of this. Tejina senpai obviously doesn't deliver in that way.

Just as damning as the censorship is the fanservice rarely being animated. We are often given vertical panning still shots of characters in a variety of skimpy costumes that are no different from what can be found on deviantart. I mean I can scroll up and down on a downloaded artwork and get the same effect. A huge part of the appeal of watching fanservice in anime as opposed to a comic is that we can see these drawings come to life. Tejina senpai fails to follow through with the added oomph that ecchi anime should promise.

To say the males are underwhelming is an understatement. The main guy whose name I don't care about looks like the most average of average joes and his best friend is obese. I understand that the point of having average guys being surrounded by attractive women is to sympathize with the viewer, but this is to the sacrifice of those who prefer their ecchi narratives to have guys with some defining feature other than niceness to make their harem feel somewhat realistic.

I’ve seen some commenters compare the comedy in this anime to Konosuba, primarily due to the commonality of a failed magician who thinks they're better than they actually are and the strong fanservice. The obvious difference is that Konosuba functions as a parody of rpg gaming and isekai narratives that are all the rage in seasonal anime today, whereas the only basis for the jokes in Tejina senpai is to set up the fanservice. We are privy to the same gags that harp on the same punchline over and over again that you either laugh at or not with no need to think about how they were constructed. Though it can be unfair to compare a short to a fully supported TV series, the difference in between how the two execute their comedy is still relevant.

It is not imperative for an ecchi show to have nudity. and it's not that important for an ecchi show to even be funny. But you better bring the heat in terms of fanservice if literally everything else is lacking and Tejina senpai just doesn't do that enough to satiate the degenerate consumer of all things ecchi. What could have been something great that improves upon the source material, like an anime should purport to do, instead is a run of the mil ecchi that can be found pretty much everywhere on a dartboard of the genre.

I wasn't a big fan of watching seasonal shows, because I usually prefer to watch the whole thing with a really fast pace, usually finishing an anime in one or two days. I decide to try to keep up with seasonal shows and Tejina-senpai was one of those. This anime really got me at the very first episode. I didn't really feel like I was watching some well constructed plot-wise masterpiece, but still, it accomplished everything it was trying to do. Considering this is a pure comedy anime, the jokes were pretty good and I found myself laughing at most of the skits. Even in the onesI didn't laugh, the good fanservice was enough to keep me with my eyes glued at the screen. For the ones who plan to watch this anime, I might just say, don't get your hopes up, this is just an really entretaining show and nothing more than that. Have fun!

Ecchi: The anime. So, Tejina-Senpai is a good example of an anime that showcases the cultural divide between the west and Japan. In the west, this type of series is good for memes and trashing on and that's about it. In Japan, this anime is actually extremely popular and is really the type of stuff that many otaku are into. It's ecchi, it's silly, it's an overall good time. Will you get some really deep and substantive plot that you need to tune in each week to learn more about? No. And if you are looking for that, you're in the wrong place. Tejina senpai isa good way to wind down and relax on a Wednesday morning/Tuesday night and to get some good dirty laughs. The series has tonnes of Ecchi moments involving Senpai and the guy MC and that's what makes it such a big draw in Japan. Sexually repressed society + Ecchi anime, match made in heaven.

As for the review breakdown:

Art:10, really love the characters designs and proportions ;)

Sound: it's a SOL so no real test to this, but everything is nice and clear.

Character: I love the MC and Senpai's interactions as well as the chem club leader who reminds me of the third wheel from Senko San

Enjoyment:10, again, this is not for everyone, but for me, if I enjoy a show, it's an easy 9 or 10 and since I really enjoy and consistently watch the series, this gets a 10.

Overall: If you like ecchi humour, fanservice, big anime tiddies and a good laugh, this is for you. If you are too uptight and not into that type of stuff, you won't enjoy this. It's not groundbreaking or deep, but it will cheer up your day, in my opinion.

There really is nothing that needs to be said other than the fact that this anime isn't even remotely funny. If you want to watch an entire anime of the annoying "Oh no! The girl I like accidentally showed me her panties!" joke from every ecchi anime ever made go for it. Otherwise, watch a better ecchi anime. I don't understand how this anime got even remotely positive reviews when there are actually fun ecchi anime out there like Monster Musume. Literally every joke is the same, I'm not exaggerating. Senpai tries a magic trick, senpai fails and gets into a lewd situation. That's the entire anime.There is no overall narrative, nor is there any reason to watch this over better things. I don't understand how people don't get bored with the exact same setup and punchline several times per episode.

Don't support anime which were clearly written to appeal to a demographic instead of any real passion or creativity. "I want to make a shittily written ecchi anime but I need a gimmick for it to stand out. I know, I'll just google a few magic tricks!" That's how this was made, no passion for anything but money.

I want to start off by saying I liked this show. But I think I'd like it more if it was a full on developed slice of life comedy instead of vignettes. The male characters in this are likeable, Assistant is a "suffering male lead who puts up with zany female lead" type character, kind of like Kyon from Haruhi, and the other guy, Ma-Kun, is a normal dude himself who likes games, seeing girls other than his sister in skimpy clothing and gives off a good "friend" vibe in any anime. The female characters are hit and miss. I like Sempai, but she hasa very over-the top, ditzy and loud personality. The other girl, I forget her name, who has orange hair really loves her brother but is also a talented balloon trick performer. Than there's the token science girl who is the soft spoken nerd girl type who has an interest in science and how things can seem like tricks when they actually are chemistry or physic principles in action.

The ecchi doesn't go too far, underwear shots and suggestive positions in particular. Nothing much past that. So I guess you could say its tasteful for the genre?

Narratively though, there's not much, but the chemistry between all the characters and loose plot threads (sempai's nervousness, saving the magic club, romantic tension between characters, all the characters becoming a loose group of friends due to their relationship to the magic club etc.) all under the theme of magic tricks, street performance tricks, and science experiments really made me wish this was a slice of life comedy with 12 episodes, 30 minutes each, and where the vignettes are weaved into a larger plot structure.

As is though it's not bad, I would recommend you not to marathon it as the jokes get old often between episodes. I think the best way is to watch 2 or 3 episodes one day and come back to it another day. I generally found the first episode I came back to better than the last episode I left off on as it got stale by my fourth episode in a row.

I'd recommend it, but it's one of those half episode, 12 episode gag animes so don't expect too much.

There's nothing much to the show. As an ecchi, the main jokes revolve around Sempai finding herself in compromising positions such as getting tied up; having her clothes get damaged; or in one instance, forgetting to bring clothes to dress into as part of one of her street performances. That kind of humor gets really old because of how predicatble it can be. Going onto animation, it's average. Honestly because of the many pantyshots and boob bouncing, it almost becomes bland as it happens in nearly every episode. The opening and ending themes are decent as is the voice acting. There is a small numberof characters in the series with each varying in terms of how they are played. The Assistant is generic and mostly serves as the stand-in for the audience observing Sempai's misadventures. He is the straight man of the relationship, but at the same time, I found myself slightly disliking him because of the fact that he makes it clear often that he is largely interested in Sempai for her breasts and her other attributes. The sixth episode in particular has him take advantage of hypnotism to get Sempai to do whatever he wanted. A really shallow guy that is.

Sempai is funny with her stage fright, but this also tends to get in the way. She is greatly passionate about magic, which isn't bad...but whenever she tries to recruit new members to the club, she comes off as annoying. Especially because there is no sign of her getting over her stage fright. It is something that continually gets in the way of progress. I understand that's a part of the joke -- she performs better when she isn't in front of anyone else -- but it quickly stops being funny quickly.

Saki is a big-breasted gyaru girl who does street performances. From the looks of it, she seems that she'll be set up as a rival of Sempai's. There's nothing to her aside from the fact that she has a disturbing crush on her obese little brother. Just her practically foaming from the mouth when thinking about her brother is unsettling. Then there is Sempai's older sister...Sister....who is an airhead who loves to tease her little sister and offers to be the Magic Club's advisor (she's mdoerately a good character), and Madara who is the club president of the Chemistry Club who takes a disliking for Sempai to the point that she loathed having the scientific tricks she does be equated to the stage magic that Sempai does. For the most part, all the characters are defined by one trait no more, no less.

Overall, Magical Sempai is a slightly below average series that if you love ecchi humor, I'm positive you'll have a good time with this one. Each episode is comprised of small segments that run for 12 minutes, so it's not too much of a burden to watch. But know that you are getting exactly what you'd

Tejina senpai is a really hilarious anime. I really liked it. The series is chock full of ecchi comedy as one would expect. The side characters are all interesting as well and are also interesting to watch on their own as well. The assistant is definitely the best character for me tho, the dude is hilarious as the straightman. I know this anime isn't meant to be taken seriously, but I wish they would have dug a bit deeper into Tejina's character. She's hilarious and has a goofy personality, but honestly I wish they showed her in some serious scenes at least. It does feel like afacade that she puts up so it would have been interesting to see what goes on behind the scenes in her mind.

They show her as being this alone girl in school that has no friends, but never explored it in any meaningful way. This seems to be a recurring theme in this anime too. Madara's character is never explored either. This show is full of potential to be honest.

However most of the potential seems to be lost to make space for the ecchi. Don't get me wrong, the ecchi fan service is fucking FANTASTIC. But I somehow got used to it overtime. The chemistry between that of Tejiwara and the Assistant works really well however only because of the ecchi component.

As per the character design, I'm not a fan of the insanely mega sized body type myself, but I'd be lying if I said I hated it. The assistant looks pretty dull and boring, but makes up for it with his personality for sure.

One peculiar detail that I wasn't able to get over was Tejina's eyes. I appreciate the different looking design, but I felt it looks a bit off and as a result, I feel like she wasn't able to express that much expression with them. This is some SUPER nitpicky shit, but I liked the different style of eye drawing in this, so I wish they did it a bit better.

The intro is very nice and fun to watch too. Really good music too. It's a bop to listen to.

Overall, I really wanted more from this anime. I love what I got sure, but I wish they'd explored the characters more. Tejina is a great character and I can't help but root for her too. The series is filled with really good ecchi moments too that are definitely worth a re-watch too. Definitely check it out.

Maybe the real magic was the friends we made along the way! TLDR (ratings): Story: 5, passable Art: 6, Nothing special but the girls are cute although I hate Assistant's bowl-cut hair Sound: 6, Both the sub & dub have entertaining and enjoyable voice actors but the score is lacking Character(s): 5.5, fairly one-dimentional but quirkyEnjoyment: 7, some pretty funny moments throughout the show ngl

Overall Score: 6

Tejina-senpai is a light-hearted comedy with ecchi moments. The anime is set in a typical non-descript generic school starring the resident waifu "Senpai" and her new victims/ club members. The premise of the show is very simple; Senpai our loveable air headed magician try out a new magic trick and fails miserably (usually ending in an ecchi moment).

The show is an easy watch with some decent gags guaranteed to receive a chuckle or two. The show has a great sub/ dub and a runtime of only 12 minutes per episode. Each episode is broken up into 2-3 acts with multiple gags along the way.

It was a really good anime. It has not a specific timelined story, the plot is really simple but enjoyable. If you want to just spend your time laughing and having a good time with the ridiculous ideas that Tejina always come with, you definitely have to watch this anime. At first, I thought i would not enjoy this anime as much as I did. I really liked the personalities of the different characters (and it was impossible not to ship Tejina and the assisstant lol). How their friendship develops and how randomly some other two students join the group is what makes the anime thisgood.

Also, the art was great. Additionally, it has a good opening and ending. For sure, I am gonna miss this anime.

I wasn't that interested in this show when it came out, but still, I'm a fan of ecchi comedies, and Magical Sempai just so happen to fit the bill, so I thought now would be as good a time as any to watch it. So, was it good? Well, let's hop on and find out! Warning! Spoiler alert! Story Magical Sempai follows the adventures, or rather, misadventures of the titular character and her group of friends as they practice their magic tricks and attempt to become true stage magicians. Well, at least Sempai does, Assistant just there to make sure she doesn't get hurt while Masashi and Sakijust want to practice street performances. Anyway, this show largely episodic in nature; there are a few plotlines that last a few episodes, but nothing that can compose a true overarching narrative.

Comedy is this show's meat and potatoes, with Sempai trying and, regularly failing, to perform magic, with her Assistant normally rushing in to bail her out of trouble. While the comedy in and of itself is fine, the lack of a deeper emotional component might turn viewers. I mean, there are episodes that imply there's something between Sempai and Assistant but these moments are overshadowed by longer, more consistent periods of comedy and ecchi content.

And speaking of ecchi content, this show has ecchi to spare. Whether's scenes of panties or Sempai's surprisingly endowed chest, there's plenty of sex appeal in this show. At one point, Assistant says that, for all of Sempai's ineptitude, she's fairly attractive.

Magical Sempai is a show for the fans of ecchi comedies, so if you're a fan, you're likely to enjoy this show. Otherwise, you may want to watch something else. (6/10)

Characters

Sempai is one of the funniest characters of the year. I got really attached to her because of her ineptitude, silliness and resolve to become a stage magician despite her lack of talent with stage magic. Even when her tricks backfire, Sempai never stops trying to be better and that's something I can admire. She's a character you can both laugh at and feel sorry for at the same time. Thankfully, her Assistant is always there to save her whenever something goes wrong. Sure, he often complains that he has to look after such a helpless girl, but deep down, Assistant would never abandon her in her time of need. I think I would have enjoyed the show a bit more if it had advanced their relationship beyond just… sempai and assistant.

Despite the small size of the supporting cast, the characters manage to be fairly entertaining. There's Saki, the aspiring street performance with an obsession with her brother, Masashi, Saki's brother who goes along with her sister's antics, and Madara, who is just like Sempai but with science instead of magic. We also get some fine comedy thanks to Sempai's big sister, who enjoys putting Sempai in ridiculous situations. (7/10)

Art

For a show with a 12-minute run per episode, its visual quality is actually kind of impressive. Sure, it looks cheap sometimes but does fit into the show's quirky and hilarious nature. Also, it seems like a huge portion of the budget went into the fanservice moments. Seriously, the show never stops reminding us how big Sempai's breasts are or how curvy her body is. If there's one thing Assistant likes about her, it's her physical attractiveness. (8/10)

Sound

Magical Sempai has a fantastic opener. It's easily one of the best things about this show. Praise should also be given to the two leading actors. Kaede Hondo is a fine actress with huge comedic talent. I don't think there could have been a better choice to play the titular character. Despite being a newcomer, Aoi Ichikawa did a fine job as the Assistant. The two leads have excellent chemistry with one another and I don't think I would have enjoyed the show as much as I did without their talent. (8/10)

Overall

Magical Sempai is a fine show. Sure, it's no masterpiece and the narrative progression could use a bit of work, but you can totally appreciate it for its comedy and fanservice elements. It can get a bit repetitive sometimes, but it finishes on a strong note and I definitely recommend it to fans of ecchi comedies. (7/10)

tl;dr: It is a well put together ecchi comedy similar in style to konosuba but involving a magic highschool club , if you like ecchi comedy you will enjoy it if not don't watch it. This is an ecchi comedy anime which wears its jokes on its sleave. If you are looking for highbrow comedy, a visual thriller or a heartfelt story on the level of Clanned you will not get it. This show is about ecchi comedy and it absolutely nails it. It is focused around a highschool girl and her desire to form a magic club with her new friend aptly named assistant.This leads to many various comedic shenanigans which combined with the short run time of only 12 minutes gives the show a fast pace feel in regards to the comedy as the quick scene segments means that most of the comedy is physical or situational rather than referential or call backs like many other anime. Shows like this often get a lot of unjust criticism for pandering to the lowest common denominator but in the case of this show it manages to pull it off well with good character writing and interactions ensuring that the comedy works rather than just lots of pointless ecchi scenes strung together. Overall every time I watched it I really enjoyed it but as this review states it is down to taste if you like Ecchi comedy or comedy similar to konosuba then I would recommenced trying it as I think you would probably enjoy it. If you don't like the darkness comedic elements in Konosuba then I don't think this show is for you. Overall I would give it a 6 for the story but a solid 10/10 for how much I actually enjoyed the anime averaging out as an 8/10 which I feel is fair for this anime as you will either enjoy it immensely or it is not in your taste.

Magical Sempai, is the other short-form anime for this summer season of anime. Again, I went in with limited expectations, considering the fact that it was short form. I actually preferred this anime to Sounan Desu Ka, because this felt more like a comic relief anime than anything else. It did a decent job of not taking itself too seriously, or trying to be more than it really was. Story: Well, Sounan Desu Ka actually had more of a story than this, albeit, not much more. Magical Sempai has a school magic club, which is struggling, due to a lack of students being interested in joiningthe club. Eventually Assistant Kun, and two others later, join the school magic club, and this show follows the events that take place in the club. They come in the forms of mini-stories, which there were generally 4 or 5 of them in each episode.

Art: Now, I give the art a pretty high mark, because, again, I think they did a good job of recognizing what kind of anime they were making, and worked to their advantages. It also helps that Magical Sempai is definitely a waifu. They did a good job of expressing Magical Sempais hopefullness, and Assistant Kuns dismay on a regular basis. They had a healthy mix of actual character art, and cute chibby characters and UwU faces. Again, they didn't take themselves too seriously.

Sound: The OP was nice, I didn't notice anything lacking in terms of voice acting or sound effects.

Characters: Despite the fact that Magical Sempai, and Assistant Kun were never actually formally introduced with their actual names, the characters were fairly charming. The dynamic between Assistant Kun and Sempai were great, and the added dynamics later, between Saki and her brother, made for some entertaining episodes.

Enjoyment: To be fair, who doesn't enjoy a good sexual innuendo? This anime is full of them, and paired with the constant Ecchi/Fan Service, it was fairly enjoyable to watch. That's not to mention, that Magical Sempai, is absolutely out of her mind, and there were several situations I found myself laughing at.

Overall: I give it a 7/10. Again, I find short-form animes hard to judge, because I personally, don't consider them real animes. It's hard to judge something that intentionally doesn't really have much of a story, or any depth. So, my rating here comes strictly based on how much I enjoyed watching the show week to week.

Tejina-Senpai (2019) 13 minute short episodes of the happenings in the Magic Club which is the storage room for the Science club. Senpai and her Assistance being the main characters with the Assistant actually the protagonist. The series is nicely done with good art that is pleasing to view. The opening is a nice tune and the ending also is nice. Characters develop as best they can in the short time frame. You do get to know people quite well and the generic tropes and fanservice that is played out. Madara-san is one of the better characters to which her actions are a little bit less expectedsince she is not in the club directly. She is the best girl of the series and was hopeful for some romance to blossom for her and the assistant.

The series is an enjoyable watch which you could easily throw an episode in at very short notice.

Overall it is a good series. It doesn't do anything different or spectacular but also does very little wrong in the grand scheme of things.
