He uses his powers to become an adventurer, earn money, and get the right to claim girls that have idol-level beauty to form his very own harem.
My First Impressions: I tried watching this, but it was really slow and rather dumb. <not watching unless recommended>

My First Impressions: I attempted to watch but the art/animation were really not my style and the characters didn't quite match the story. <not watching unless recommended>

Thus the boy pharmacist will cheat by using his previous knowledge to create innovative medicines while helping the people of the parallel world, a story about living his new life to the fullest this time.
My First Impressions: It's a little unusual in that he "reincarnates" and takes over an existing person instead of being born into the fantasy world, but pretty standard "ends up with super powers". Still, I find it interesting enough to continue.

Summary: Yuuya, one half of the boy pop duo ZINGS, may be the laziest performer in the Japanese music industry. His partner is out there giving 110% every night (and, thankfully, he's quite popular), but Yuuya's half-assed, sloppy dancing, and his frankly hostile attitude toward the audience, has the fans hating him and his agent looking for any excuse to cut him loose. The career of a pop idol just isn't the path of easy leisure and adulation Yuuya expected... After a particularly lifeless concert appearance, Yuuya meets a girl backstage. She's dressed to the nines in a colorful outfit, she's full of vim and vigor, and all she wants from life is to perform. There's just one problem: She's been dead for a year. This is the ghost of Mogami Asahi, the beloved singer whose time on the stage was tragically cut short, unless... If ghosts are real, is spirit possession really that much of a stretch?

Following its instructions, he inscribes a magic circle, and ends up summoning a powerful demon named Vermei, who was sealed long ago, and makes her his familiar. However, the voluptuous Vermei occassionally requires magical energy from Alto, which she claims by kissing him deeply.
My First Impressions: Not great school somewhat ecchi romance, but not terrible. The magic fighting could be better. After a few episodes, it's one of those shows that I could drop without missing it, but it's entertaining enough still to keep watching since there's so little else this season.

My First Impressions: No idea why they made this isekai except to explain the main character behind overpowered. It's okay, and the slime is cute, but not sure where it's going to go. I'll keep watching it mostly because there isn't much else this season.

Summary: "LycoReco" is a café with a traditional Japanese twist located in downtown Tokyo. But the delicious coffee and sugary sweets are not the only orders this café takes!

My First Impressions: I watched a few episodes of this, but it doesn't seem to really be going anywhere, and I'm not a huge fan of the main characters. <not continuing unless recommended>

Wanting to prioritize their parents' relationship, the two promise to not fool around with each other, establishing a rule where "the first one to get aroused" loses.

Summary: In the world of Remnant, a place where science and fairy tales coexist, human civilization is plagued by deadly monsters known as the Grimm.

While team RWBY studies to become the greatest Huntresses the world of Remnant has ever known, they are faced with a horrifying threat...
My First Impressions: This anime is really about the fighting. The characters so far seem fairly steoreotypical. But for lack of other shows, it's not bad. Feels like it's one I wouldn't miss though.

I swear, I'm going to get to the bottom of what makes this maid so...mysterious!

Then, he suddenly attains a second profession — sage — and awakens magical powers within himself. Yuuji's alternate world adventure begins when he follows a slime, that seemingly weakest of all monsters.
My First Impressions: This seems to be your typical overpowered isekai fantasy world anime. The style completely changes in ep4 from super serious to comedy though so I'm not sure where this is going. The summary doesn't give you a good idea of what it's about though.
