Watching an amusing isekai power/harem fantasy called The Eminence in Shadow, and there's a character called "Perv Asshat".

I mean, it's not often you recognise yourself in an anime ...

He. Is.

Atomic.

Catching up with DANDADAN and man this is easily the best anime I’ve watched in a very long time, compelling story, AMAZING CHARACTERS (Grandma Seiko FTW!) who you love to watch, stunning and kinetic animation, and an awesome score.

I’ve read the Manga up to a point, so I’m just enjoying the adaptation now…

Like Abyss…now that you’ve caught up with DMEON SLAYER….hop to this. It’s on Netflix, so it’s easily accessible.

It’s just a joy to watch, with a wacky but emotional story.

Watched the first two eps, it didn't really grab me - the 'kids in school' angle is widely used in anime and not something that holds my attention vs a whole other setting like Demon Slayer. Your reco is noted tho', may give it a few more eps, will see.

The school setting is only really in the background as things go on, and things get weirder and weirder...but yeah see if you can get into it with a few more eps. The Turbo Granny arc (eps 1-4/5) is all table setting for the show.

I watched the whole first season and it never ended grabbed me either. There were a couple episode climaxes that rose above the rest, and overall it's obviously very well made, but the story never got interesting to me. It kept on feeling like just the same old quirky teenagers versus quirky monster of the week sort of thing that anime is always doing, with the same sort of jokes and character dynamics, nothing really setting it apart and grabbing my interest beyond the high quality visuals.
