Conception

UPDATED REVIEW:

Just a second, please don't judge me!

I know what you must be thinking, why is some random stupid ass guy rating this anime 10. You must be thinking what is this guy smoking...

Alright, alright stay calm. I'll give you a short summary of my review before you judge me. Spare me some of your minutes, won't take long - I hope.

Story (4):
I know it is a pretty shit story, like straight away out of nowhere Mahiru says she's pregnant. Uhm ok... That's a crazy start, now you wonder who's the lucky b*stard who impregnated her. Suddenly, like literary out of nowhere they get ... sent to another world. Oh boy, cliche Isekai shit right there. Once they reach another world, Mahiru confesses that there was no father of the baby and makes you wonder what drugs is she taking. No father??? How can that be possible? Another Jesus??? Then, it turns out there was no baby in the first place. It just some syndrome that similar pregnancy, like hello??? Who wrote this shit???

Then the main character gets told to mate with 12 Star Maidens which are all based on zodiacs including his cousin Mahiru to produce a Star Child and save the world. Hmmmm? Makes you think will this turn into Hentai or Borderline Hentai like Shinmai no Testament or Masou Gakuen HXH. Alright alright, calm down guys now is not the time. Before you get excited, listen to what I have to say, don't you dare skip this part!!! I guess this is where most people got their hopes up.

Majority of you must be thinking at this point about enjoying the lewd scenes. Guess what? You get fooled! They censor it using the curtains and weird shiny lights and chibis etc. All Itsuki requires to do is body contact with a Star Maiden and that's about it! Outta nowhere poof (that's the actual sound effect); a star child is produced. Like a grown up toddler appears outta nowhere. No need for intercourse or anything, a simple body contact is enough!!! Whoa... Mind blown!!! Are you still excited now??? Plus, as the episode progresses; you don't know what goes on behind the curtains... The story is so simple minded and cliche, but I think its good change to most anime adaption. If you are a person that don't expect much then you might as well watch this.

If not then sorry for wasting your time... Apologies for long paragraph for the story section too.

Art (8):
The Art was decent in my experience, the characters look pretty and background was nicely done too. I don't really sense much of laziness in art. Its fairly done. That's something nice done for this anime. I mean the story might be shit but you need a charm point as well on something.

Sound (10):
Conception reminds me of those type of anime or games where they invest more on the sound itself than the story. The OST was really nice to hear and relaxing. Every scene they had a particular OST, it synced perfectly. I am kinda bias since I watch it at night. I think you might change your perspective if you watch it at night. Maybe it just me but watching Conception at night may be better than watching at day or afternoon. Of course, many people sleep or do something else a night hehe... Lets not go into deep details. Anyway back to the the main topic, the sound is pretty well invested.

Regarding to the OP song, Starlight Starbright by nano is great song. It has a good tune to it, simply cannot skip this opening. Some of you must be fan of nano thinking her song is wasted on this shit anime. Its ok... It happens... It happens...

Character (8):
At least our main character isn't dense- well not too dense until last few remaining episode! Amazing right? My boy Itsuki doesn't hesitate or act too dense. He's doing all this baby making for the sake of the world! Plus, the racoon-bear mascot thing is damn hilarious, a pervy racoon which you could probably befriend with it. I would, to be honest ahaha. The 12 Star Maidens are also cute and pretty also references to the Art. Each Star Maidens have a unique personality you'll love. This may also relate to sound; the voice actresses all suit their character roles as well. Great job to Conception staff for hiring great voice actresses. Which is pleasant to see and hear.

Enjoyment (9):
I enjoy Conception despite it being a shit story, which starts up weird and then you already know how it will end or progress. It hilarious to see that, sometimes you just want an anime that gives no shit about the plot - not referencing most of Gintama (When will it end? Ahahaha. Keep it up Gorilla-sensei, don't end it now). Also, Mana (the racoon bear thing) makes the anime even more funny to watch. Mana says the weirdest things possible and sets up the most cliche plans for main character to hook up with the girls. I don't know, it's horrible but so interesting to watch... Thank you Mana... I liked the ending too, bit of a spoiler but it was expected ending. Last episode of Conception was literary a roller-coaster. It was nice ride I guess...

Overall (10):
I mean I have no right to complain about other people's opinion, since they are not right nor wrong. But in people's perspective this anime deserves a 6, yes I have seen other reviews that are given rating of 1 or 2 its harsh but its their opinion you shouldn't really hate them. Plus try watching this at night, I think it will give you a different experience or maybe not. Since no one can disturb you and you are relaxed setting up a pleasant experience.

Misc:
As some of you know I made a preliminary review before for Conception around episode 4 I guess, I'd like thank you again for rating my old review helpful. 79 found it helpful!!! To me that is a big accomplishment! Yesterday some person came to me and asked to update my review since it wasn't visible in the main page of Conception. I didn't really had intention to but his/her message was really great to hear. So here I am again!

Thank you very much for reading.

Conception is a harem anime where our main swagnator gets a mission to save the world. How does he do this then? By making a baby with every girl he meats, of course!

The story is highly comedic and the writing mainly relies on episodic events where the swag-bro hits on new girl/girls just to commit "love-ritual" or, like a more poetic person would say, " fuck dem bitches."

The girl variety is great (there is like 10+ of them) and all of them naturally fall for the bro-nator because he is such a hero. There is a girl with split-personality who is adorable, tanned ... cat-girl who is ridiculously sexy, and a cousin person too because how can man call himself a Man if he can't even make relatives suck his cock. Some other girls are pretty okay too, others less interesting.

The character design is rather unique and also varies greatly and most girls are more of the pure, comfy side since the series is more comedic than pushy fanservice. There is practically no ecchi which is great because that only shows how much harder it is for the mc to get these girls worship him and achieve his goals.

Production was okay. Girls did good job with their voice acting, blushy blushes were inserted to make the most crucial moments extra happy, etc. Smart decisions.

Enjoyment-wise, I found this series to be quite funny and cute. I honestly don't get what most people were expecting. In my opinion, series such as these should be judged based to what they aim to do, and as a harem series, this most definitely achieved everything it wanted to.

TL;DR Review

Unwatchable, literally unwatchable. No one is insane enough to watch something like this. Where do I start? The plot is horrible, I mean, getting your cousin pregnant so that you can create babies to fight in a dungeon? The jokes aren't that funny; the raccoon flying creature thingy isn't funny. To be honest, it's kind of annoying. Heck, if this was hentai, it would be much more interesting. At least a 5; BUT IT'S NOT! The character development is horrible, the plot's terrible, and fight scenes are pretty lame. Main character doesn't know how to fight, but as soon as he touches a sword, ... he slays like goblin slayer going crazy in a cave. Hello? Makes no sense to me! Well whatever...
