Cute girl doing Cute things anime were never my kind of thing.

Alright it's not like i don't like cute girl doing cute things but i have seen a very few of them like K-ON and A place further than the universe.

Even though i appreciate K-on and like some things about it . I found myself getting really bored in some episodes and finding most of k-on not really funny (and this is coming from someone who doesn't mind animes that are not funny, as long as they are entertaining) . A place further than the universe was pretty good , their interaction were cute as well , it was emotional , the production value was great , but i still judged that cute girl doing cute things weren't my kind of thing.

So uh one day , after going to a totally legal anime website (TRUST ME) , i saw an anime that crossed my eyes. The name of the anime was ''Endro'' . Some funny looking name but honestly it was way freaking better than ''If I don't successfully pick up 420 girls, I am going to die in a lot of different ways.'' (real anime) or whatever light novels title there is out there , so the name felt oddly normal , i guess i was just used to bad and long anime names. The cover official art had bunch of girls and with bright colors and shit. Great , exactly my kind of show . So i decided to watch it . Since the art was still really refreshing in some way.

Alright , you probably didn't come here for my life story so uh let's get that bread

What is Endro about you say?
Endro is about bunch of girls ( Alright , bunch of girls , i bet you didn't know that huh , your welcome for the fact ) that are fighting against THE DEMON LORD (sounds totally not generic) and uhhh
SPoLieR AlERT
they defeat him .

Anime finished .

Goodbye.

You can click off now.
.....

which is what i would say if will smith didn't say those wise words:

''YAAAAAAAAAAARRGHHH , IT'S REWIND TIME''

Somehow kira came and bite za dusto the shit out of the anime .It resulted in the anime going back in the time before they defeated the demon lord , all the way to the beginning of their adventures. The only person that is aware that the time got rewinded(thanks will smith) is the demon lord .The demon lord however , became a loli (oh no , crap , this is a sign of a trash anime ) . So now we follow the adventure of our 4 girls , as they are going to school aiming to be in the hero party , soon becoming the greatest heroes of all time.....

Is what i would say but there are no demon lords anymore since the demon lord is now their teacher (loli teacher , yay) so all they do is to fool around and live a peaceful life while doing quests and other funny stuff.

Now firstly, what i love about this anime is the way in which it parodies the fantasy genre.
Parodying the fantasy genre for comedic effect isn't really anything new , a lot of anime does it

But just let me give you an exemple real quick.

When going into the school , you need to state what class you want to be.
magician , warrior ... you know , all the typical stuff right?
Yet the mc , unironically says ''IM A HERO'' as a class. Even after people repeatedly tells her that it is not a real class.And that we only give the name hero to people that are gonna defeat the demon lord (but the demon lord became their school teacher)
But now , instead of calling the mc by her real name , we just nickname her ''hero'' (yusha) , because of her obsession of wanting to be a hero .
Now a joke like this wouldn't be normally funny . But they execute their joke so wonderfully that it can get a laugh out of me. And it has a lot of it's good joke like them as well.

Now you may be thinking ''so is that it? They fool around for the entirety of the series and it's finished? Pretty generic if you ask me'' . And to answer that , i'd say
yes but it still has a lot going for it.

It's not only a really relaxing , cute and funny anime but this anime is also pretty great because of the characters . It's because of those characters that the jokes can also deliver so well .

We got 'Yusha' (the mc , yusha means hero in japanese ) who is kind of an airhead but also adorable . She is really honest which is why she can really support her friends. She reminds me of yui from k-on or yuki yuna from yuki yuna is a hero (which is a quite a coincidence because both have pink hairs , are ''heroes'' ,have similar personality , and their anime is made by the same studio , totally not suspicious).
We got Seyla which is like ''the big sister of the group' but is also quite self conscious. Fai who is a big eater . And Mei who loves her freaking yu-gi-oh cards.

For any CGDT to work correctly , the main interactions between the main group is crucial and it does that perfectly . Each episodes gives us a funny aspect of their characters and delivers their joke pretty well.

But this anime isn't only about them .There is also the ''former demon lord'' and also there;s a princess that got quickly introduced in the later episodes.

You see , this anime has a lot of rather cute and wholesome themes and episodes.

For one episode , the teacher loli got sick . She now realized how lonely she actually is . And then we have a flashback of her recalling hwe loneliness as when she was a demon lord . Yet the ''hero party'' came into her house , taking care of her , and was actually really nice to her . And the ''hero party'' is the same party that defeated her, the one that she is also supposed to defeat . She realized that being a demon lord is really meaningless since even with all the possessions in the world , how good all of this is if she is alone? She realized how happy she became after being a teacher rather than when she was still a demon lord .

I loved this episode ,we can see that the characters grow in really cutes and fun episodes.
Also an other exemple : when the princess realized that the girls do not act the way they do solely because of the fact that ''they are heroes'' but rather because ''they are their own person'' .
She already had a preconceived idea about what the heroes were supposed to be and how they were supposed to act because of her idolization of heroes and because of that , acted in a predetermined princess like way because this is also how she was supposed to act as a princess .The heroes indeed ''acted that way'' .But the reason why they acted that way is entirely different from what she thoughts . By spending time with each of them , bit by bit , she learned that their personality does not inherently come from the fact that they are heroes , but only because they are themselves.

This show is not deep or complex and it doesn't try to be one.
Every episode is just so wholesome , cute and funny . The art is refreshing , the op is great and the ed is good as well . The ost , while not being the best , does it's job . And honestly , i think Endro was one of the most enjoyable CGDCT i ever watched . I feel like this show is really great. And that's not it . Even though it's mainly an episodic sol , it still has 2 connected episodes for it's ending . And the ending is simply wholesome and great while being foreshadowed from episode 4 and 6 with slight hints . Mixing everything we know so far about each characters and gives us a really good and hilarious conclusion.
It's a really simple yet really good and enjoyable show that i think that you can watch with a relaxing mindset.

So should you watch endro?

uhm
wait i need to do a unfunny joke

THIS ANIME HAS A DEMON LORD. WHO IS A TEACHER AND LOLI , WATCH
