Review of Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor

There's always that anime that seems like it's good but when it's over, the reviews change from giving it an 8 to a 5. This is one of those cases. When you watch the first episode, it does feel a little underwhelming because if i'm being completely honest...it was pretty irritating. However, after you watch more and more episodes, it begins to get better and better. It has the right amount of suspense that would make you want to watch more but also have some comedy mixed here and there, to not make you completely bored. The only problem with the anime is it's lack of originality.The characters have their own tropes and their personality doesn't really go beyond that. The only one that feels fleshed out is Glenn Sensei. He was probably one of the more better characters in this Spring Season.

Nonetheless, despite the whole cliche thing, the anime itself was still a fun show to watch and really, you shouldn't have any high expectations when watching this. From reading the synopsis alone, you can already guess that this was going to be generic. Doesn't mean it's bad though.

If you like fanservice, comedy, fun characters, and an overall pretty good time then watch this. If you want something more "deeper" then go watch something else as this isn't going to be your cup of tea.
