I'm kinda shit at writing reviews so sorry about this. I don't really watch ecchi because I like doing things such as going outside. Despite this I still think that I should still be able to review an ecchi even if I can't compare to other shows that share the same genre. I get that the portrayal of women in the show is supposed to be a joke but that still doesn't change the fact that they are rooted in the male gaze. The show overall was just super uncomfortable to watch and pretty much every female character was objectified and sexualized. This isn't just a case of where the humor just isn't for me but rather the writers for the show were too damn horny and needed to calm the fuck down. I pretty much only continued watching because the fits were immaculate but besides that there is little to no real reason to watch the show. Each episode kind of just shares the same format where a chick has comically large boobs and thinks the main character is an idiot. The main character goes awooga for 15 minutes and then there is a final scene where its revealed that the main character is a secrete genius and now the girl wants to doing back flips on the guy's pocket rocket. After this the guy just rides away on his bike to learn more which while it was kinda funny the first time by the second episode you already just become numb to everything. I'll admit that the show deviates from the formula on its last episode by having the main character trick all the girls from the past episode into thinking he was hitting them up for a d appointment when really he just needed some help to finish animating something but it isn't enough to actually save the show. The only other thing it has going for it is the animation and the music. The animation is nice and fluid and it is pretty apparent that the team had talent it's just a shame that everyone was so damn horny and had no shame. I'll admit that the ost has a couple of bangers and alongside that the soundtrack is able to compliment the different scenes pretty well without feeling generic which is something that a lot of anime kind of ends up doing accidentally. I really just don't see any reason why someone would like the show if they weren't a middle school kid who just learned about sex. What sucks is that I can't even recommend this show as a so bad its good show because the entire time the constant dehumanizing of the women in the show just makes you too uncomfortable to laugh at bad scenes. Basically, if you have any kind of self respect just watch something else. If you want to see a show with sexual humor that isn't uncomfortable just watch Grand Blue and if you can look past certain uncomfortable scenes with the male gaze in them watch Konosuba.
