![]() He is the straight man of the relationship, but at the same time, I found myself slightly disliking him because of the fact that he makes it clear often that he is largely interested in Sempai for her breasts and her other attributes. The Assistant is generic and mostly serves as the stand-in for the audience observing Sempai's misadventures. There is a small number of characters in the series with each varying in terms of how they are played. The opening and ending themes are decent as is the voice acting. Honestly because of the many pantyshots and boob bouncing, it almost becomes bland as it happens in nearly every episode. That kind of humor gets really old because of how predicatble it can be. ![]() As an ecchi, the main jokes revolve around Sempai finding herself in compromising positions such as getting tied up having her clothes get damaged or in one instance, forgetting to bring clothes to dress into as part of one of her street performances. Then to add onto that, you have a street performer going by the name "Saki-chan" who tried to usurp the magic club, and she also has some.interests in her brother. While looking for a potential club, he comes upon one dedicated to stage magic where he then meets Sempai who unfortunately has crippling stage fright that causes her to mess up the performance continuously. High school student, the Assistant, is made to attend a club due to club regulations. In short, there is very little reason to watch Magical Sempai, not when there are many far more appealing comedy anime out there, so I would not recommend doing so. Out of the main cast, Sempai's older sister and the chemistry club president seem like the best characters, with the former being a loving but embarrassing big sister, and the latter being a well-adjusted science nerd who knows about magic-like science tricks, but aren't utilized very much.Īnother downside is that the fanservice is rather excessive and in-your-face, particularly whenever Sempai's latest mistake results in a panty shot, her clothes getting wet, her ending up naked or all sorts of other things. A sibling duo of recurring characters adds little to the cast, since they don't have all that much synergy with the leads. Sempai's immaturity and bullheaded drive to prove herself end up making her fairly obnoxious, while Assistant's apathy does little to make him sympathetic. This wouldn't be so much of a problem if the characters were at all likeable. ![]() As such, the characters are not allowed to develop or grow in any meaningful fashion. Since these comedic mishaps are the source of much of the anime's comedy, if Sempai ever got over her stage fright, the source of jokes would promptly dry up. Will she ever overcome this and become a good magician? When she performs in front of others, she fails spectacularly, and often ends up in compromising positions. Sempai is good at magic, but only when no one's watching. The anime is about an unnamed student, known only as "Assistant" who joins a magic club with a sole member- the eponymous Sempai. As such, it's very telling that Magical Sempai doesn't even finish a 12-Episode Anime (with episodes at half the usual length) before running out of steam. While some franchises are guilty of being drawn out for as long as their creators can milk them, the viability of an idea can be measured by how long you can keep writing about it before it starts getting stale.
