I've been watching The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System, and I'm so torn on this one. On one hand, the animation is amazing, and for one the MC seems to have a good personality, but oh my goodness, the pacing is beyond slow. That, and the entire game/class system is super weird? Like, the game the world is based on feels so unbalanced and poorly designed. It's not a deal breaker, but it's such a weird combination of greatness and badness.
I also tried to watch Tougen Anki, but it feels like such a cookie cutter shonen. I am so tired of the loud-mouthed, half-brained punk kid as MC. Can't we try something different? For all I complain JJK is Naruto with a different skin (at least until the Shibuya arc), at least Itadori was a fresh take on the shonen MC stereotypes.
