Magical Sempai

Introduction

Starting his new term at Tanenashi High School, an unmotivated freshman searches for a club that requires minimal participation to suit his needs. He then comes across the magic clubroom, and inside is a cute upperclassman practicing her magic tricks. Suffering from stage fright that causes her to slip up in her acts, she has a tendency to end up in the most embarrassing situations. Despite having little interest in a club run by an incapable magician, the freshman finds himself involved as a new member, experiencing all sorts of awkward moments with his eccentric mentor.

It isn't bad. It isn't good. It's a comedy about a failure trying her best and getting in pervy and sad situations because of it. Following highschool students, watch as our white haired protagonist do simple magic tricks wrong! Over and over again! That is the gimmick! It's in offensive. It's short. You got time to burn? You don't know what to watch? This'll fill a good hour or so of time. Does not need or really deserve a season 2. If you like nagatoro, the authors did collab for a special promo chapter. Outside of this, the dub is done well. Still isn't a great anime, but the VAs did a good job.

I want to start off by saying I liked this show. But I think I'd like it more if it was a full on developed slice of life comedy instead of vignettes. The male characters in this are likeable, Assistant is a "suffering male lead who puts up with zany female lead" type character, kind of like Kyon from Haruhi, and the other guy, Ma-Kun, is a normal dude himself who likes games, seeing girls other than his sister in skimpy clothing and gives off a good "friend" vibe in any anime. The female characters are hit and miss. I like Sempai, but she has a very over-the top, ditzy and loud personality. The other girl, I forget her name, who has orange hair really loves her brother but is also a talented balloon trick performer. Than there's the token science girl who is the soft spoken nerd gir…

Magical Sempai is nothing amazing, but nothing terrible. Its the story of a school girl who is very enthusiastic about magic. A new boy reluctantly joins her club and she constantly tries to demonstrate magic tricks to him and constantly fails, leading to a lot of fanservice; panty shots and boob shots. There isn't much of a story. The episodes are 12 minutes with each episode broken down into even smaller pieces. Although the characters are not deep or complex they are all fine. No one is annoying. If you want to watch an anime where a cute clumsy girl tries to do magic tricks and end up accidentally showing her panties instead then you can watch this.

Its Ecchi, its hysterical, and its short bits keep things fresh. If you love Dopamine, love to laugh, and love cute girls being silly, this is a MUST WATCH. "Magical Senpai" is a delightful anime that serves up a comedic feast with a side of magic and mayhem. The series, known as "Tejina-senpai" in Japanese, charms with its lighthearted approach to the world of magic tricks and the endearing clumsiness of its characters. The art style is vibrant and expressive, perfectly complementing the show's humorous tone. It accentuates both the fanservice and the comedy, ensuring that the visual gags land with impact. The anime thrives on its collection of short stories, presented in bite-sized episodes that make for an easy and enjoyable watch. At the heart of the laughter is the titular "Magical…

I recommend this anime to watch, for those of you who are bored and need sugar intake, then this anime is the answer. But I also wouldn't recommend it for those of you whose tastes aren't anime like this, This anime is nothing more than mere entertainment, the story is decent, not too bad and not too good. By the way, I've re-watched this anime three times, and this is the first time I'm giving a review, so maybe the impression I have of this anime is just normal. The character design is good, and doesn't show too much of a perverted side, so for those of you who don't really like perverted things, I think this will suit you.

Magical sempai took a deep leap into Ecchi genre. Giving us the consumers that are watching this anime a treat. This is at-least well having to be the first tv-series that did ecchi magician. female protagonist. The episodes aren't building deeply into a story but it's just for some giggles and tease. The comedy feels a bit hentai type. (Idk how to explain it kind of). The humor is great in it. The intros and outros ARE AMAZING!! The episodes feel like you're watching a ordinary show without story but just for fun and laughs also checking out that cute magician girl. The art style was alright like a regular romance ecchi anime. I would recommend this to people who wants to watch this for fun and like ecchi stuff.

I don't think this anime is good for quite obvious reasons: the lack of plot and character development. I understand that in 12 episodes of 15 minutes each it is very difficult to make a well-articulated plot, but I don't understand why a person should watch an anime full of comic gags already seen (in other series and repeated in the episodes). The characters don't even seem interested in the main plot, generating a feeling similar to that which certain actors generate when they play a film reluctantly. The idea of explaining magic tricks is nice, but I think the way in which the explanations have been attempted is totally wrong, both because they are hasty and because the characters themselves don't seem interested. Tell me, what's the point of explaining things that don't affect history…

The topic of magic is honestly not an interesting topic. However, the way the series presents this subject and blends it with humor has made the subject seriously entertaining and interesting. Since our story reflects an event from life, we are not strangers to emotions. The characters and their personalities are seriously relatable. Having a bit of obscenity in the job also makes the job more fun. At the same time, his Drawing style is seriously sweet and colorful. If you want to watch a colorful story in this boring life, I can recommend this series. You won't regret watching it. As for the negative aspects, I can say the following as my personal opinion. Senpai's magic attempts can be long and tedious at times. Other than that, nothing else bothered me.

This anime looked like it would be a fun comedy anime with some fan service, boy was I wrong. For context, every week I watch a 12-16 episode anime in a single night and since this was on my list, I decided to give it a try, but that's a whole 2 hours and 10 minutes of my time wasted. I never thought that 12 minutes and 30 seconds could be so long. Firstly, the story is bad. It is about a girl who really wants to revive her old "magicians club" that was being disbanded due to having only 1 member. One day however a male named Assistant-kun (I don't remember if his real name was ever mentioned) was searching for a club and stumbled into the room where the magician (she will be called "sempai" now) is at. She forces him to join the club and do magic tricks that she always fails. 3/10 The…

tl;dr: A series of really good comedic shorts about a girl that’s constantly screwing up magic tricks in bizarre ways. Tejina-senpai is a short comedy anime about about a girl running a magic club who has terrible stage fright that renders her unable to do magic, and her assistant that has to put up with her nonsense. This isn’t the story of her overcoming her stage fright or anything of the sort, rather that’s just the justification given for why every trick she attempts ends horribly to amusing effect. There are very few characters in this anime, and the two main characters aren’t even named, simply being referred to as Senpai and Assistant throughout. The cast overall is incredibly flat, with absolutely no character or relationship development. They also have very little depth, basical…

O Nayef, O Nayef, stay away from people and do not listen to their words. This anime is one of the best anime that is categorized by Aceh. Anyone who opposes what is real? This anime is actually a good anime, for an ecchi anime I consider this as a top tier in my list, tbh sometimes i feel sorry for those who didn’t watch it yet or didn’t think about watching it, man this anime should be in top 1000, i don’t know why it’s not between this ranking. At the end i just wanna clear that Nayef is a god watcher, not a weeb, not a culteured one, not a normie, but a god, one and only god, keep it up man and don’t listen to people they don’t deserve your opinion. All love for Nayef

It's dumb, silly, horny and fun. For a few minutes. Sometimes that's all it takes to make a show worth the admission. Magical Senpai is a short comedy series with even shorter runtime of about ten-twelve minutes each. Synopsis looks dry as heck but I gave this one a chance one lazy afternoon and taken back how much I enjoyed it. Slapstick in anime can be an acquired taste and through the years, I began to appreciate it. Too many shows inject too much 'message' or 'progressive' elements to them and while they can be well-meaning sometimes, shows especially comedy are first and foremost made to, ya know...entertain. Magical Senpai knows what it is and it doesn't care for doing much else. An underling gets dragged by a lunatic sexy senpai to her obsession with magic tricks and shit happens.…

Magical Sempai short review by Ja025: Refreshing: A comedy that actually made me laugh. Interesting: Lots of light ecchi moments and comedy. Notable: Might teach you a trick or two. Episodes are fast paced (multiple situations in one episode). Disappointing: Assistant is an asexual log but it’s not overly annoying as he loosens up later on. Obvious: No connected story development – more a Slice of Life anime. Ecchi is light and comedy is goofy but fun. Why the score: I enjoyed funny scenes it offered and ecchi it provided. Episodes were fun to watch and I found myself laughing a lot before I even realized how good this anime is. Probably one of the better short ecchi comedies I’ve seen so far. Contrast in Senpai’s and Assistant’s personalities and how they function together is quite in…

Story: The plot is enjoyable at first, but after a while it gets boring and repetitive. Sempai does a magic trick, fails and gets into a situation where she's in a sexual position, then her assistant makes a snarky remark, wash, rinse and repeat. It even recycles the same senerios, making it feel lazy and uninspiring. There is not proper ending really. Which is a shame because the last senerio would've lead to a funny conclusion which the writers brushed off. Art: The art is nothing special really, it's pretty mediocre. Sound: Nothing special about the sounds either Character: The characters are one dimensional and stale, only having one personality which makes the anime more stale. No character development. Enjoyment: As mentioned before, it gets really repetitive and lost focus, whi…

Maybe the real magic was the friends we made along the way! TLDR (ratings): Story: 5, passable Art: 6, Nothing special but the girls are cute although I hate Assistant's bowl-cut hair Sound: 6, Both the sub & dub have entertaining and enjoyable voice actors but the score is lacking Character(s): 5.5, fairly one-dimentional but quirky Enjoyment: 7, some pretty funny moments throughout the show ngl Overall Score: 6 Tejina-senpai is a light-hearted comedy with ecchi moments. The anime is set in a typical non-descript generic school starring the resident waifu "Senpai" and her new victims/ club members. The premise of the show is very simple; Senpai our loveable air headed magician try out a new magic trick and fails miserably (usually ending in an ecchi moment). The show is an easy w…

Ok so, who here likes tits? Okay now lower your hand, i know that that was an onvious question to ask anime fans but i digress. Ok lets talk the actual show like a proper reviewer and not a fuckin ingenerate retard who knows too little about anime to review them yet. Tejina Senpai is a show that exists, it has done nothing more or less than exist and that makes it average in my book, it does nothing special but i got a laugh once or twice and i only ever paid attention to the jiggle animation in the department of the animation quality. While a dedicated member of the Flat Chest party, additionally known as Flat is justice or National Socialism. I still enjoyed Magical senpais character and her assets, which was the intention, the only notable character is the straight man who i forgot the…

Tejina senpai is a really hilarious anime. I really liked it. The series is chock full of ecchi comedy as one would expect. The side characters are all interesting as well and are also interesting to watch on their own as well. The assistant is definitely the best character for me tho, the dude is hilarious as the straightman. I know this anime isn't meant to be taken seriously, but I wish they would have dug a bit deeper into Tejina's character. She's hilarious and has a goofy personality, but honestly I wish they showed her in some serious scenes at least. It does feel like a facade that she puts up so it would have been interesting to see what goes on behind the scenes in her mind. They show her as being this alone girl in school that has no friends, but never explored it in any mean…

tl;dr: It is a well put together ecchi comedy similar in style to konosuba but involving a magic highschool club , if you like ecchi comedy you will enjoy it if not don't watch it. This is an ecchi comedy anime which wears its jokes on its sleave. If you are looking for highbrow comedy, a visual thriller or a heartfelt story on the level of Clanned you will not get it. This show is about ecchi comedy and it absolutely nails it. It is focused around a highschool girl and her desire to form a magic club with her new friend aptly named assistant. This leads to many various comedic shenanigans which combined with the short run time of only 12 minutes gives the show a fast pace feel in regards to the comedy as the quick scene segments means that most of the comedy is physical or situational r…

This was pretty fun, a bit more on the fan service side, but fun nonetheless. The characters are good and have some hilarious scene’s. although it has its funny moments, it doesn’t keep up in story. Story – 4 Is there one? Really? Not really, it’s more of a bunch of characters being chucked into weird situations that ends with some mildly sexual joke. Art – 7 I like it. the art style is pretty nice and the character reactions are hilarious, built on a multiple shorts per episode basis, it has a nice sort of brake from long stories. Sound – 6 I like the OP and ED, the background music isn’t anything special, but the OP and ED are very happy and shows that the series is an over the top comedy. Characters – 6 I like the sort of character ark of senpai, but it doesn’t feel very complete. S…

I know there won’t be a second season... but I honestly really enjoyed this show. Ecchi, genuine magic tricks, some pretty amusing ‘inversions of expectations’ for the sake of comedy... it was all really quite fun; and, unlike most 12 minute/“half-time” shows, the whole ‘4-coma’ pseudo-presentation really suited the show. I honestly didn’t regret watching a single episode. Amazing show. ... Hard to rate, though. ... I mean, ‘for what it is, it’s beyond my expectations’—but I didn’t expect much from it to begin with, ya know? Well... I think that kind of “Expectation-Setup” is part of a show’s foundation, so even if “less effort” was put into the whole Product, the delivery of ‘that expectation’ was easily a 7/10, if I’m being objective (I’m giving it 8/10 because it delivered on exactly w…
