<\/a><\/p>\nShort Synopsis:<\/strong> Literally the show\u2019s title.<\/p>\n Amun:<\/b><\/span> First premiere of the new season, hooray! Usually the first show premiering is a steaming pile of poor animation or fanservice, but is this season any different? The answer is\u2026.kinda. Maogun was about as standard a premiere as you could ask for. Truthfully though, that puts it head and shoulders above any other season first premieres that I can remember. Hey, at least it\u2019s not an isekai, right? We have a standard overpowered OP with a dark secret that only the big boobed boss knows\u2026.well and this random maid who just found out. Okay, whatever. There\u2019s a pig henchman and then a demon queen who is on about something. I don\u2019t really love the character designs though – there have been more shows that do this, with the heavier outlines. This more comes down to execution and that\u2019s something I am absolutely not convinced Studio A-CAT can continue for a full season. Think of this as an old, used Honda Civic – it\u2019ll be sorta fun to drive until the wheels fall off. Lenlo:<\/b><\/span> While Maogun<\/em> isn\u2019t quite as bad as I was expecting, I think Amun is overstating its quality a bit. It\u2019s still a rather dull and by the books OP MC fantasy story. I suppose the whole \u201cHiding his identity\u201d thing would be interesting, if it wasn\u2019t immediately revealed that others are aware of who he is, taking a lot of wind from Maogun<\/em>\u2019s sails so to speak. Meanwhile visually Maogun<\/em> is primarily mediocre CGI with poor lighting and a heavy reliance on after effects for the spells. There\u2019s just\u2026 very little of interest here, and while that places it above most Isekai slop we get, it\u2019s still not worth my time. Short Synopsis:<\/strong> DC Suicide Squad villains are sent to a new world!<\/p>\n Amun:<\/b><\/span> (Note, I\u2019m only going to discuss the first episode, although I know 3 premiered immediately). Let\u2019s keep this simple: \u201cSuicide Squad Isekai\u201d didn\u2019t have a great start. My complaints: first, Harley\u2019s fight with whoever that ninja was felt really weird – the finishing blow just felt odd in perspective. Secondly, the entire episode felt rushed and confused – tons of time was spent on showing the Joker, only for him to be seemingly absent from the rest of the show (although I love the inclusion of his car). Third, the animation wasn\u2019t as crisp as it needs to be for an action heavy show like this. I KNOW Wit can do better. Finally, and this is probably the most concerning point, I didn\u2019t feel that the tone of the DC Suicide Squad was well integrated with the isekai setting. Suicide Squad is about the irreverent \u201cbad guys killing other bad guys for good reasons\u201d with humor and style. \u201cSuicide Squad Isekai\u201d more felt like super powered prisoners were set free in a fantasy land. And I mean, that would be a fine premise, but we know these characters already – it just felt like hearing a song you love, trying to like it, but they\u2019re hitting the wrong notes just slightly. Maybe the show will improve, but I\u2019m honestly really disappointed.<\/p>\n (Episode 2 update: while the first episode is cheeks, episode 2 was way more fun. Maybe this could turn out okay?) Lenlo:<\/b><\/span> After watching Suicide Squad<\/em> I feel that it\u2019s safe to say, as a comic book fan, that it\u2019s best to go into this expecting a regular Isekai with a DC aesthetic rather than an actual exploration of these characters in any interesting fashion. If you wanted to see Harley Quinn in a fantasy world in any way other than visually, SSI simply is not for you. It has no idea who they are beyond the surface level and some catch phrases like \u201cPuddin\u201d. However if you just want to watch a hot blonde psychopath and her \u201cfriends\u201d make media references and murder their way through a fantasy world, this will probably be right up your alley. And honestly, visually? I don\u2019t think it looks that bad. It doesn\u2019t move that well, like Amun says the animation isn\u2019t very crisp and I\u2019ve seen Wit do better, but I kind of like the designs and how colorful it all is, sometimes at least. If I rate this on a scale of Harley Quinn stories, it\u2019s not shaping up to be very good. If I rate it on the scale of Isekai in general however\u2026 Well that\u2019s a much more favorable comparison if you ask me. Suffice to say, I\u2019m going to finish watching the other 2 episodes and probably a bit more before\/if I drop it. Short Synopsis:<\/strong> An exhausted salaryman gets a robot maid and swiftly falls in love with her.<\/p>\n Mario:<\/b><\/span> Boy this is tough to sit through. For me, the problematic part of this premise is not about him falling in love with a robot (which of course is a can full of worms), but the very idea that the \u201cperfect wife\u201d image is the one who cooks for you and does the household chores\u2026 and refers to you with the honorific \u201c-sama\u201d. It\u2019s just a blatant wish fulfillment cranked up to 11. Adding to that is a very generic male lead whose name I immediately forget as soon as I hear it. He doesn\u2019t have much of a personality, really. Just look at his apartment and you don\u2019t see anything that reflects his hobby or characteristics. But I guess he\u2019s human enough to\u2026 have a boner when a humanoid girl sleeps next to him. The fact that the titular robot is emotionless but somehow 10 times more interesting than him speaks to that. Sorry but I don\u2019t buy this relationship at all. Amun:<\/b><\/span> This premiere was lowkey disturbing. Not on the level of Goblin Slayer or anything, but yeah, this was not enjoyable. I looked into it and the source comes from 2019, somewhat at the beginning of the current AI boom. Given today\u2019s advancements with humanoid robots (props to showing the extensive charging sequences) and LLMs like ChatGPT, My Wife Has No Emotion isn\u2019t a cute comedy, but more of a dystopian nightmare. There was just way too much discomfort and awkwardness this episode, ignoring that this could very well become reality within the next decade. Of course, we have the obligatory ghosts in the machine, where the AI exhibits functionality beyond programmed behaviour – could it be, gasp, alive?! I do have to give props for that clock animation (that\u2019s on point). Plus, there is also no way on earth that having a robot sleep in your bed doesn\u2019t smell like oil. Yeah – this is disturbing. No more of this for me, thanks. Lenlo:<\/b><\/span> I don\u2019t know what I find more depressing, the idea of live-in tradwife sex robots, or the idea that this guy works what looks to be 12-hour days just to get home, crash, and do it all over again. Anyways, Amun has the right of it in that this show isn\u2019t wholesome or cute at all and instead rather creepy. Weebs and Neets are already too afraid to go outside and talk to the opposite sex, do we really need to encourage it with things like demure robot wives who do anything you say? Maybe the show goes somewhere with it and gives her a personality, does the thing where it chastises him for falling in love with an appliance and that a true and fulfilling romance can only come from another sentient being reciprocating those emotions with their own free will. The emotions bit at least definitely seems to be what My Wife<\/em> is gunning for judging by this first episode. That\u2019s enough for me to not write it off completely like Amun, as there\u2019s clear potential there. But I can\u2019t say I\u2019m particularly hopeful for it, just going by Japan\u2019s track record.
