I read some chapters from the manga, it’s one of those “popular girl x unpopular guy” stories. Slightly better than the usual because the MC leans towards “capable yet unmotivated” rather than “bland”.

I’d say give it the usual 3-episode trial if you enjoy this genre.

Livechart.me can usually help find out which streaming service has the series in you region.

This one in particular I think is in Hidive, and they aren’t available in a lot of regions. :/

And I just found out they got Aoi Yuki as Maomao’s VA! Getting even more hyped now.

So far only only started a couple:

• Saint Cecilia & Pastor Lawrence
• Tiny Senpai

Want to start:

• Jujutsu Kaisen S2
• My Happy Marriage
• Atelier Ryza

I agree 100%. - the Magic Arena economy is crap. And grinding is almost unavoidable, because even if you are willing to spend real money on the game to speed up the card aquisition process the value you get from most store purchases is also crap.

This would not be so bad if the grinding itself was fun, but it’s designed to require you to not only play but also win games, which brings a lot of bad incentives - most people will just stick to the same meta decks, favor decks that kill quickly so you can get more games in a short amount of time, concede on the first sign of disadvantage, and so on.
