Brainrot harem with minors slop with lower production quality of a cheap RPG's cut scenes.

The harem trope is common in anime, but is usually accompanied by some redeeming qualities such as a compelling plot, likeable characters, interesting lore or engaging action. Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter manages to dodge all that, or rather do all those things in the most poorly executed, mundane way possible and infuriate viewers with endless whining from stereotypical loli harem characters and the blandest protagonist ever who is a caricature of the rizz genre itself to the point of mental illness.

My condelescences to anyone who gave this show a shot and got moderately invested in the story, including myself.

Having enjoyed another Kdrama featuring a quirky, but talented lawyer (Attorney Woo), I thought this would live up to its entertainment value as the latest in lawyer related Kdramas.

But you will be in for a disappointment when it comes up completely short with frustrating pacing, predictable and rage bait plot lines and a lead character who is "supposed to be" some kind of genius lawyer but is objectively speaking quite mediocre and adds very little to the events. Save yourself the frustration on this awful show.

I was very skeptical since it seemed like a kids movie and not really intended for my demographic. But I kept hearing good things about it from word-of-mouth and the mainstream media, so I gave it a shot - and oh boy was I really glad that I watched it. I totally get the hype.

The music really stands out (Golden! Soda pop!), amazing characters and sincere developments and relatability, colorful & stunning visuals and good old fashioned family-friendly animated fun with widely relatable themes of self-acceptance, friendship and fighting inner demons. It is also culturally enriching, sharing Korean culture and Kpop culture.

I sincerely encourage this direction in animated entertainment.
