New Game!

Going into this show, I definitely didn't expect to dislike it, but I also wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did. For being set in the same location for the most part, and having the plot revolve around a subject that on paper would be pretty boring, this show does what anime does best and manages to inject loveable characters into that initial bland premise to give it life and energy. This show was also surprisingly funny, particularly the first season. Weirdly this show contains zero male characters, which even though the show pokes fun at and acknowledges, it never answers why that is the case. I also appreciated how they didn't give every character an over dramatic backstory. Some characters have something similar, but never to the degree that many other anime have that get tedious after so many. Overall I really enjoyed this show and highly recommend anime fans give it a try.
