9 Shining Hearts: Bread Of Happiness Needed A Lot More Flavor

Fantasy that takes a slower, more laid-back approach to the genre can be a great thing -- just look at Mushi-Shi or Ascendance of a Bookworm. But to pull it off, the series needs to have interesting characters and a truly inviting world.

8 Isekai Cheat Magician Proves That Overpowered Heroes Can Be Boring

As One-Punch Man proved, overpowered heroes can make for some of the most entertaining shows out there. But they're certainly not the guarantee of entertainment that an anime like Isekai Cheat Magician seems to be banking on.

7 A Centaur's Life Spends Too Much Time Horsing Around

What's really sad about A Centaur's Life is that its interesting parts are almost hovering, tantalizingly, just out of reach. It's a laid-back slice-of-life show set in a world populated entirely by supernatural creatures, all somehow co-existing together.

6 Shattered Angels Is A Crossover That's Worse Than The Sum Of Its Parts

The mangaka duo Kaishaku is perhaps best remembered for their supernatural yuri romance Kannazuki no Miko, the anime adaption of which was generally well-received.

Shopping

Summary

Not everything has to be narrated. It’s ok to simply say what happens, without having to stick to 100% realism, narrating every small interaction. You (probably) don’t narrate your PC’s going to the bathroom either. In my experience, your players won’t mind, they want stuff to happen too! It is a tabletop role-playing GAME after all.
