I am going to go on a limb and assume most of you reading have already decided whether you will watch Magical Sempai or not.
Plus, I didn’t want to release this review without commenting on the sweater. Oh, and Sempai had a massive set of boobs. The way the light shone on the stitched fabric was something else I tell you what. The sweater Sempai wore throughout the show was the most latex-looking cotton top I have ever seen. If you can accept that, then I think you are going to find this to be sufficiently satisfying.ĭo you want to know the level of fanservice you would be getting with Magical Sempai? Well, here it is: It is merely a way to pass a few extra minutes with something fun.
#Magical sempai x assistant series#
This series isn’t something you’re meant to invest your time in. Magical Sempai, being only thirteen minutes an episode, was the ideal length for the type of show it wanted to be. Everything was quick and to the point, and once a joke was made, that was it time to move on. No one episode followed an overarching storyline. Sempai and Assistant were what this series needed to complement its sketch-comedy presentation better. It was this balance that allowed Magical Sempai to be as funny as it was. Together, these two created a perfect balance of give-and-take. Why have an overdramatic freak out when a more subtle sarcastic comment could be so much funnier? It wasn’t so much that Assistant didn’t react to Sempai’s antics it was that his energy levels were the polar opposite to hers. I love me a good straight man routine, and Assistant nailed that. To counter Sempai’s forcefulness, this series had Assistant, who could just absorb the insanity. The second she had eyes on her, though, nothing would go her way. Therefore, when you mix stop-for-nothing ambition and crippling stage fright, you get Sempai, who was a decent magician when no one was looking. With a natural desire to perform, she was always on stage, and when things went wrong, she refused to let the trick die. She was enthusiastic about magic and did put a lot of hard work into her act. With Sempai, she was high-energy and gung-ho. However, this series went all-in on that one trait. That was the best part.”Įveryone in Magical Sempai was based on a single personality trait. I wouldn’t argue with anyone if they said, “This show’s characters were one-note.” Where I might differ is by countering with, “Exactly. Magical Sempai ’s straightforwardness was only part of the equation, though. Not because it was a surprising gem, but because it worked, plain and simple. It would not surprise me in the slightest if Magical Sempai managed to obtain a second season. Heck, there wasn’t even any fan fair to indicate the anime had reached its final episode. This series never bothered to delve into the personal lives of its characters. If I were to narrow down this show’s success to a single element, I would have to give credit to its simplicity. Getting right to the heart of the matter, I enjoyed Magical Sempai far more than I ever expected. But even if those concepts do bother you (which, if they do, you made a gross miscalculation when you decided to watch), there was still a considerable amount of charm to this show to have it be more than ridiculous boob physics and penis jokes.
As long as you go into this series knowing fanservice and slapstick will be its mainstays, then you’ll most likely find it to be a lot of fun.
