    It's the best Anime in Otome game Genre

    I fell love this anime. It is one of my most favorites anime now. Usually I don't like otome game anime. But this one managed to win my heart. I love the characters development of the main 3 and also how they get closer over time each character overcoming their insecurities. It was wholesome to see. Hope this doesn't get cancelled. Angelica and Olivia's chemistry is great. I love Leon's trash talking he's not overly kind and is on savage side. To me characters that way to morale are boring. Leon's savage but still kind hearted inside personality is what makes the show great. Eagerly awaiting for season 2.

    Love this and waiting for season 2

    Everything in that series was fine and perfect. To be honest, I have given a review because it touches my heart. If a show can't get to my heart, I Don't review that.

    But this series was excellent. Storyline, characters, background was perfect. Can you please bring season 2 for your support and fans. Please give us any confirm dates or trailer so that we can understand that it will release. To be honest, I am waiting for a long time. And I am just upset because, we didn't get any confirm dates or news that it will release in this year. Really, we are waiting for this series, to see the next part of the story.

    Hope you guys will give us any good news soon. And Thanks again for this series.

    Good comedy. Some good moments

    Overall the animation the animation is average, and the story makes sense. It's fun to watch and it's not so serious, it's more easy going and one complaint is i want to see more of the "women are more important than men" thing about the story, it occasionally pops up for comedic reasons but it would be cool if it played a bigger part in the story. In conclusion, pretty good anime, but it can be better.

    Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs

    This anime series is centred on Leon Fou Bartfort, an officer worker who dies and is reincarnated into the world of a video game. It isn't a game he likes but an otome dating game his sister forced him to play. He is a lowly male character in a world where women rule and characters like him have a hard time. From his knowledge of the game he manages to acquire powerful equipment and enrols in the prestigious Holtfort Academy where he rubs shoulders with the elite of this world. Inevitably he makes some enemies here, as well as a few friends.

    I thought this was a decent enough series. The isekai genre is somewhat crowded and there are certainly better examples than this... there are also far worse. It is the sort of series that is fun while you watch it but is likely to be forgotten about soon after it ends. The characters might not be the most original but they are entertaining to watch. The action is solid and there is a decent level of unforced humour. The animation is pretty good and the characters are suitably distinctive. Overall I'd not call this a must see but it is worth checking out if you are a fan of the genre.

    These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
