Apr 27, 2021 Ernis- Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) Do not be fooled by the relatively low score of this anime. I can already classify it as a hidden gem, an underrated masterpiece if you enjoy isekais. In this review I will tell you why. First off, lets address the low overall score of the general MAL public. At the moment only 4 episodes are out yet there are plenty of ratings given. What I found on the forums the majority of haters give arguments like "The MC is female so I can't relate" or "wow, a reverse-harem". Dismissing an anime because of random shallow reasons and giving a 1 speaks volumes about how you ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 22, 2021 Marinate1016 Recommended What do you get when you mix the two best genres of anime, shoujo romance and isekai? An amazing experience like Seijo. I’ll be sweet and short with this one, Seijo was one of the best shows of the season, it’s really a shame it didn’t get much attention. But, for those of us who did get a chance to check it out, week after week we got to see an incredible character driven and grounded fantasy story. Sei’s one of the most loveable characters I’ve come across in an isekai. If you have traditionally struggled to get into isekai because of generic OP MCs ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 22, 2021 askGleb Not Recommended The low score is based on the lack of: antagonist, plot twists, suspense, character dev, quality dialogue, and etc that a good story should have. I found this series from recommendations of another shoujo anime that I watched, Akagami no Shirayuki-hime. Some 8 people recommended watching this series... What a mistake! Generally, I enjoy shoujo and the like with sentimental stories even if it's a harem. Sadly, Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou Desu failed my expectations. Story 2/10: The plot is super basic, predictable, and therefore boring. There is no antagonist in the story, no real conflict or anything that can cause emotions, characters just exist. The ...

Apr 28, 2021 lirgh Not Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) ---The review contains spoilers--- [This is pretty similar to my review of the manga. Not much has changed in the anime, but the artwork has gotten worse than the manga.] This is not like the other isekai because it's not about an OP surrounded by scantily-clad women: TRUE. The most famous isekai are probably Tensei shitara Slime... and Mushoku Tensei. These two are steeped in seinen/shounen tropes. In contrast, Seijo no Maryoku plays to all the usual josei tropes. MC is a very introverted woman who gets isekai'd to a world where for very little effort, she gets treated as the ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 22, 2021 dadnaya Recommended "The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent" or "Saint Isekai" (or "Sei Isekai") is definitely the hidden gem of this season. A show that was rather down in the list of seasonals, I initially just skipped over it, but after hearing a few things about it, I decided to give it a try, and had a HUGE surprise waiting for me. This anime immediately jumped to the top of my seasonal list. You see, Saint Isekai doesn't do TOO much new in the field. We've seen Isekais before, and we've seen that one fantasy world maybe a bit too much. But still, it is able to play its cards ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 22, 2021 Luubie Mixed Feelings After many attempts, Diomedea got it right. Finally we have an anime that we can rate the studio for its progress and execution in adapting a show based on a Light Novel. Honestly, since the demise of Domestic at Kanojo, I've had no hope of a studio that has been known to significantly damage the original material and which has consequently crippled the entire franchise. But now it's an exception, this time we have to recognize a good job! Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou Desu is the kind of show that arrived in 2021 with an idea that was often questioned about its own functionality, even ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 27, 2021 Bearpuff4 Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) This show, put simply, is good. It is not amazing or thrilling, and it definitely isn’t bad or disturbing either. It’s good. It isn’t something you’d watch when you’re looking for your next top anime, but it’s also not something you’d only watch if your desperate for something new either. I’ve been watching this and Yuru camp lately, and both of them are just relaxing and enjoyable. The story is nothing new, but it’s presented in such a way that it flows nicely and is paced well enough that you’re neither confused nor bored (although episode one was a bit fast paced, but it improves shortly ...

Apr 29, 2021 fwoody03 Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) The show starts as your standard isekai with the mc being transported to another world. However how the story progresses from there is a little different and quite refreshing. As the story continues forward it focuses on one of the two girls who were summoned and but wasn't chosen by the hero to party up with. She then continues with her life as a saint, experiencing a different side of the fantasy world, that we don't often get to see, as she develops her magical power and uses them in different ways. The story is more light hearted and refreshing than most seasonal isekai with it focusing ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 22, 2021 Yurimuru_Tempest Not Recommended 4/10 -do not recommend- I haven't read the manga, so when it was first announced, I was thrilled because isekai is one of my most favourite genre. Looking at the trailer I thought this was gonna be at least enjoyable. The anime is slow paced. In fact, too slow that I lost interest because there is no progress at all with the development. The thing that drawn me is the magic aspect of the show when it was first announced, but I was truly disappointed with just how much potential they've wasted. The characters were rather bland, and lacks a resolute to their ambition. Except for ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 23, 2021 Im_Stuff Not Recommended Tl:dr: Unless you are part of the targeted audience (i.e a female anime fan, preferably of non adult age), this anime has no redeeming feature Nothing like an anime with a cute girl on the promotional picture. It's an isekai slice of life? I mean, the competition is big so maybe the author is just that confident in themselves. Oh, so it was targeted at a female audience and I've been jebaited... Well so be it. Otome game was also aimed at a female audience and I enjoyed it, so really it can't be that bad, right? Well it was that bad. Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou desu, ...

Jun 22, 2021 KANLen09 Recommended I've gotta pose a question for all of you: If given a choice, what would it take for you to get Isekai-ed to another world? Stabbed or Crushed to Death? Truck-kun? Or in the case of the female MC, 20-year-old Sei Takanashi: a sudden light at her doorstep after a long typical day of the stresses of being a workaholic? Personally, even with the clichés and tropes of the now oversaturated Isekai genre, everyone secretly wants to live a fleeting dream like Sei's, to be suddenly transported into another world, and with the passing of time, slowly get used to the ways of the medieval-like ...

Nov 20, 2022 eksratu Recommended I did not find this show on my own, nor was it recommended to me by a friend. Instead, an algorithm suggested it based on how I had rated other anime. I was initially skeptical, and the first episode left a weak impression on me. But I quickly grew to love the mature, relatable characters. They behaved appropriately for their age, acting prudently and with the foresight of grown adults. "The Saint's Power" is refreshingly devoid of the childish schemes, emotional immaturity, and rampant miscommunication which characterize mainstream anime. Also, I found all the characters to be really hot. I suppose algorithms actually can tell ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 23, 2021 Shiizu-Chann Recommended It's an undoubtable fact that the Isekai genre has grown exponentially within the last decade and Seijo no Maryoku presents the immense potential held within a new type of Isekai which has yet to be explored thoroughly. A light hearted cute wholesome story of the everyday life of a girl who's been summoned to another world, and the beginning of her adorable romance story. This is exactly the type of new refreshing Isekai many of us have been eagerly waiting for! Our story follows the adventures of Sei Takanashi, and her everyday life as she strives to improve her alchemy and explores the the depths of ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 12, 2024 Nilsou Recommended And another Isekai! But, lo and behold, this time it was very good, and even, surprise, original because here we have an anime that combines Isekai and Josei-type romance. In summary: In the fantastic world of this Isekai, the regions are semi-wild and humans live in cities that are constantly under pressure from monsters and an evil mist from the outside. Occasionally, a saint appears, who has the power to repel monsters and mist and bring many other blessings. Unfortunately, it's been a long time since a saint has appeared, and the country is in difficulty and decides to resort to a ritual to summon one. It's ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 29, 2021 johnbradshaw Mixed Feelings Don't be fooled by the high score this one got, The Saint's Magic Is Omnipotent lacks what makes an anime good, it is a failed slice-of-life hiding under the shell of Shoujo Isekai. When Sei Takanashi went home after an exhausting day at work, she got summoned to another world by a ritual. Lost and Confused, there's another girl summoned with her. Without knowing anything, she's not considered a Saint and get tossed aside. And there our story of a overpowered saint begins. To be honest, the anime is pretty boring. Set in an Isekai settings, I expected everything to be more intense than this, ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 22, 2021 Takadashi Recommended overall score: -mid seven- (7.5) This is definitely not a show for everyone. For people that just one to sit back and relax while seeing a OP mc swipe everyones ass but with a little twist and interesting plot every now and then. it can be quite enjoyable even tho it those have PLENTY of cliche moments and scene that can be a real turn off but overall it's calm, cute, entertaining, and wholesome at times. The character is nothing special but in no means being a bad character, what i mean is this show is one of those show that only focuses on MC's chara ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 16, 2021 Uncreativity101 Recommended Preliminary (6/12 eps) A surprising gem. Okay, personally I don't like romance. However, I found the romance here surprisingly comfortable. Yes, it's a little forced but compared to most anime's, it was quite well done. Maybe it's just that I'm hopeless for the trope where the character is saved by someone and goes from respect to love. There are certain aspects that are a little cringe such as slightly pushy pickup lines but the MC makes it rather fun by literally pointing it out. She's ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 25, 2021 CyberXane Mixed Feelings Story: It's ehh. There were some parts in the beginning where I'm like Yeah prove those people wrong! But then after all that was settle like halfway through the series it kinda went stale. Like by no means is it horrible, but it's not that great. Main character seemed more like a Mary sue. It's mainly just a wholesome take in some areas. Like she's just a girl that wants to help, but nothing drastic really happens because she's OP. Couldn't really tell if it was trying to be slice of life or an actual Isekai with a plot to go somewhere, or even world ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 27, 2021 MisakaRin Recommended This anime was very beautiful from start to finish. The characters personality felt really alive, plot maybe simple but the giggles that I felt midway was so insane that after watching it 3 times I lost all sanity. How they showed Sei is like a cupid shooting 1 arrow per episode in your heart. It might be a downside for some that it does not have a proper antagonist but it did not felt rush and in turn, felt really good after and satisfied but wanting more ( at least for me) after watching it. Uhh, sorry! I felt like I did not write a proper ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 8, 2024 Swissguru Recommended Simply a lovely watch, always enjoyable to have a show with low stakes, lovable people all around and conflict focused on characters instead of arbitrary threats. With the protagonist's isekai role, the story organically escalates into her growing into her role as a saint. Read more Open Gift Report More Reviews |
