Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! – Episode 1
Cherry Magic is a sweet, low-key little BL romance that I’m interested in exploring more of.
-
The Witch and the Beast – Episode 1
There’s already a lot to unpack from just the first episode of this gritty and stylish fantasy. Witch burnings! Ritual sacrifice! Complicated questions of gender! A shark kaiju!
-
Metallic Rouge – Episode 1
Is this a good show? Or am I being dazzled by Our Lord and Savior Studio BONES and the joy of seeing adult women being extremely cool in a cyberpunk setting?
-
Sengoku Youko – Episode 1
It’s somewhat hard to judge the show right now, the author’s previous works suggest that the binary morality of this premiere is likely a facade.
-
Doctor Elise: The Royal Lady with the Lamp – Episode 1
This is honestly a pretty interesting premiere; I just wonder if it’s actually going to keep the elements that made it interesting as it goes forward.
-
Villainess Level 99: I May Be the Hidden Boss But I’m Not the Demon Lord – Episode 1
Villainess Level 99 isn’t a terrible show, but it sits firmly in the same uncreative slog that broader wish-fulfillment isekai have been stuck in for years.

‘Tis Time for “Torture,” Princess – Episode 1
This is absolutely Miyazaki-grade culinary voyeurism.
-
Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable – Episode 1
Hokkaido girls get their time to shine in this genuinely sweet premiere that’ll have viewers looking for a high school romance yearning for more.
-
7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy! – Episode 1
A promising start with a fantastic heroine if somewhat lackluster visual presentation.
-
The Foolish Angel Dances with the Devil – Episode 1
Foolish Angel mixes extremely weird comedic decisions with an exceptionally fun lead—though the final scene leaves a significant stain on the proceedings.
-
Mr. Villain’s Day Off – Episode 1
For all the reservations I can throw, it still achieved the ultimate iyashikei goal: ending the episode with the feeling of a warm, fuzzy blanket after a long day.
-
Tales of Wedding Rings – Episode 1
Tales of Wedding Rings has genuine potential, if it can avoid tripping over its tendency to toss in fan service any time the plot can get away with it.
-
The Strongest Tank’s Labyrinth Raids -A Tank with a Rare 9999 Resistance Skill Got Kicked from the Hero’s Party- – Episode 1
It lacks a lot of the underlying bitterness or petty meanness of most “kicked out of the hero’s party” series. This made it a considerably more pleasant watch than its brethren.
-
The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic – Episode 1
Follow Usato’s adventures in a solid isekai premiere that shows a lot of promise and avoids some of the genre’s most sexist pifalls.
-
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer – Episode 1
Much like how the dragon turned Rentt into a skeleton, this turned me into the Joker.
-
Solo Leveling – Episode 1
Cool concepts aside, a series like this ultimately rides or dies on its cast, and so far these fictional people aren’t bringing much energy or doing much to get me hooked.
-
A Sign of Affection – Episode 1
A Sign of Affection’s first episode is sweet as pie, beautifully put together with a sincere and likeable heroine I’m already rooting for.
-
Sasaki and Peeps – Episode 1
Despite all the factors that should have made it a winner, Sasaki and Peeps is really, really boring.
-
The Demon Prince of Momochi House – Episode 1
The Demon Prince of Momochi House is largely playing the beats of a fairly familiar genre of shoujo: an orphan teenage girl stumbles into a supernatural world of bishonen hotties and becomes enmeshed in their drama. I just wish that these hotties had a bit more going on.
