By today’s standards, Yumeria is honestly a pretty Mid ecchi & harem anime. However it has some OSTs, along with an Opening and Ending, that really capture that nostalgic feeling. ( As someone who has been watching anime for almost 7 years, I can easily say that things like these have been an important part of what keeps me motivated to watch anime in the first place.)
Because of that, watching Yumeria reminded me once again that 2000s ecchi & harem anime, no matter how Mid they might be overall, had a certain charm and were surprisingly good at creating that nostalgic feeling through their OSTs & OP/ED Songs
- It’s been about 2–3 weeks since I watched this anime, and I have to admit that I still can’t stop listening to Precious Treasure on repeat. And even though I said the anime was ex…

lazy dumb kid of class, with no real aims drive, or ability, goes to sleep one night and dreams of helping a girl fight a battle against a mysterious creature. Wakes up the next day next to her in bed, as all virgins do.
Daily he is pulled into this world revealing this s the only place he is special after his lonely friendless, parentless, shut-in lifestyle leaves him just with his guardian so often. Suddenly and stupidly his house is regularly filled with a hodgepodge of girls in typical harem fashion from pre-teen loli to teen to his guardian who he used to want to sleep with and regularly grope.
It's the usual tropey useless person to hero idea that some anime's push out. His teacher hates him, and regularly physically attacks him, no one cares, his teacher throws a bomb at him, no o…

This was just a simple show which is okay but in this case boring. I made it to the end but that is not saying much.
Story: A simple plot of beat the bad guys and make sure they do not get into the real world, easy right? However, the characters did not make it seem like it was that important and were more concerned with drama in the real world. Since there were only 10 or 11 characters that were really shown I did not really care about keeping track of names. The fight scenes were lazy. The transformations into their outfits were the same thing each time like it was just a copy and paste so the makers of the show could save on the animation budget. There was not much to keep track of for the show was that simple.
Characters:
Tomokazu: He was bland hand was just acted as if he really h…

Yumeria is an Anime based on a Visual Novel of the same name made by NAMCO (Yes, the same NAMCO that made Pac-Man and Ace Combat). If there is one of the most mediocre harems that could be, it's this one. And needless to say, I wasted 3 days of my life watching this.
Story: 5/10
The story follows Tomokazu Mikuri who on the eve of his 16th birthday has a dream where he's in this strange world. In this world he sees a young girl fighting some evil force. He wakes up only to find the same girl of his dream having slept next to him. The entire anime basically revolves around him and the harem of girls fighting against this force in the dream who try to make it to the real world. The story is relatively boring and cringy (at points) up until the last 3 episodes where things gets better in ter…

The story revolves around a young man, Mikuri Tomokazu, who has vivid dreams of strange enemy aliens coming to attack him in a bizarre dream world with floating land formations. A young girl who speaks only one word - Mone - with superpowers appears in the dream to save him for the present peril, and later materializes with him in real life. Over time, the girls in his family, his girlfriend, and a strange girl named Neneko also become part of his dreams and all have their own unique super powers there. The dreams recur, and the enemy appears to gain strength, requiring ever more effort from the embattled young women to repel them. Eventually Mikuri comes to realize that the dreams may foretell the possibility of the enemy aliens coming to destroy the Earth in real life if he and the girls…

I had a blast watching Yumeria. Being a person who is rather tired of the harem genre, I was surprised that I loved this show as I much as I did. While it doesn't boast many new ideas than what's already been done, it's comedy feels a bit refreshing, the art is very vibrant and beautiful, the girls in the show are all lovely, and there is enough gratuitous fan service to satisfy without offending.
What sets this immediately from other harem titles that came out around the same time here in the U.S. (Marburaho and Girls Bravo), is the personality of Tomakazu Mikuri. He's still as much of a loser as any other character you've seen, but unlike Keitaro in Love Hina, Kazuki in Maburaho, or whatever the kid's name in Girls Bravo was, Mikuri has a solid sense of comedic timing that goes beyond ju…

Yumeria is your typical harem anime. Loser guy with no girlfriend finds mysterious girl and suddenly has girls falling all over him. While there is nothing particularly remarkable about this series it does everything well enough to be a solid series.
The story is weak but has just enough to keep you interested throughout. Since the series is short the lack of any real story depth doesn’t hurt it too much. Nothing earth shattering or original and the plot twists are predictable and simplistic. Tomokazu and his friends find themselves thrust into a dream world where they have to do battle with monsters trying to break through to the real world. While this sounds like it might be exciting with lots of battles and action there isn’t. While a lot of episodes have battles in them they are usual…

Yumeria should come with the subtitle "an adventure in mediocrity", when it comes to games NAMCO (usually) try and to do something different or at least attempt to put an original spin on a tried and tested formula (see the Tales series), but with regards to Yumeria, there's doing things by the book and then there's copying the book word for word. Whilst it manages to avoid some of the major harem clichés, it falls slap bang on to every one for the action/magical girl genre like a combine harvester in a minefield.
The story is too poor to analyse in any real detail, just some lame protagonist and his magical girl friends save the world whilst ignoring a lacklustre love interest sub-plot that never develops. The harem parts of the series aren't littered with fanservice, so at least…

This anime can stand on its own. The story is fairly straight forward, no fillers. It kept me interested throughout, heck I watched all 12 episodes in an evening.
The characters were enjoyable. There wasn't much beating around the bush as far as romance was concerned, which suited me quite well. Nobody "did" it (Like the first episode of REC!), you still have the blushing and accidental bath scenes. It was just refreshing to have people like each other without dragging it on for eons. The classmate and the elder sister type were especially enjoyable. The younger characters were quite fun as well.
I'd say the balance between story, humor, and fighting were pretty well done. Perhaps a few of the "power up" sequences were a bit repetitive, but hey thats how they got some brief ecchi in. Th…
