New summer season anime drops continue!

Be Stronger! New Saga - Adventure/Fantasy anime where the protagonist, Kyle, slays the Demon King, then gets trasnported back in time before the whole demon war started. - First ep was okay. I was just glad not to be watchiing something like Re Do of Healer (shudder). Thankfully, the time travel thing is the only aspect the two anime share.

Onmyo Kaiten Re: Birth Verse - An action, fatnasy, isekai anime where a guy gets transported to another world with magic and mecha and discovers that, when he dies here, he gets to respawn at an earlier point in time. - This anime has strong vibes of Re: Zero - Starting Life in Another World. The main character is kind of irritating, but the other world is interesting. I like how they combine magic and tech. May watch again.

Hell Teacher - An action/comedy/horror/school anime about 'Nube' the only psychic teacher in Japan who gets hired to teach at a high school plagued by yokai and ghosts. - This first ep was 40 minutes long, basically a two-parter. Don't know if I'll watch this one, as the first two eps felt super-rushed. Also, Japanese comedy isn't really my cup of tea. Mix it in with horror and it just leaves me cold.

Clevatess - Action/Drama/Fantasy anime where a group of heroes go to kill a Lord of Demon Beasts, only to have it backfire terribly. - Hmm. The animation in this was really good and the story got sort of interesting. There's going to be chicanery and politics in this, from the look of it, and a Demon Beast Lord learning what it is to be human. I'm intrigued and will watch more.

Reborn as a Vending Machine, Season 2 - An Adventure/Comedy/Fantasy/Isekai about a guy who dies and gets reincarnated in a fantasy world as a literal vendiing machine. - I'm biased. I binged the first season of this in two days. I really like the characters, the animation is good and the writers get creative with Boxxo's abilities. This is stupid fun. Definitely watching more. :)
