If you're looking for something fast-paced, or with a good story, sadly this isn't for you. It's a very slow-paced SOL style pace, combined with fantasy, ecchi, harem in an attempt to target multiple audiences.
Characters get some development on why they are there, and what they do, but this is limited even after episodes dedicated to different members of the team. The truth is, it looks like it was never planned to go for a second series, just some ova's/specials. Fin after the last episode being a major clue.
The characters are your typical adventure style from game or fantasy in some cases, the OP MC, the strong guy in Nick, The mage, and always in the teen/loli area that these animes seem to love when targeting men.
The stories are simple to follow but are pretty much individual to…

reason i made this review:
so i was on nhentai, and i stumbled upon this nice doujin with a buxom blonde mage lady and lo and behold, i started having flashbacks of me in my formative years beating it to CG's from a VN called Blessing of the Campanella, which featured a rather attractive buxom blonde mage lady.
and i watched the show, and the rest is history.
this show is the worst fucking anime i've ever watched. not in that it's a terrible show in production quality, etc, but it's terrible because it's so, so, so, so bland and mediocre and just fucking BORING. it's like if it was parodying the fantasy anime genre....but there was no comedy, and it wasn't self aware.
it's just so horrendously bland and literally the only reason why anyone should even consider blessing of the campan…

Do you love just looking at nice scenes from fantasy worlds? You'd better, otherwise this anime has very little to offer. I've actually lost count of how many times I've watched it, not because it's good but because it's so bland almost all of it gets erased from my memory the moment I watch a single episode of something else.
Just by reading the plot synopsis your hope for a good story should already be crushed. Keep it that way. Most characters are really forced into roles that don't work well, as a result their conversations are all over the place and sometimes funny but more often so disconnected and incoherent it's like they are locked in their own imaginations and talking past each other. The voice acting isn't even good, not because the poor folks doing the voices did a bad job but…

This anime... Is simply just a dead fish. I can't even say there was a lot of potential, but there was certainly more than what this anime realized.
I cannot say anything other than the characters were all stale and uninteresting, the story was slow and predictable, and the music was just mediocre. It's only saving grace was the art, but it didn't save it. Perhaps the biggest flaw was the stagnant emotion from the characters; this emotion was happy without breaking a smile, or sad with tears, and that was it. There was no humor, and I mean none. I am not even sure if this anime brought a smile to my face. The characters were so cliche it was hard to finish it.
*I am not a very strong critic on anime. I like more than I should. Waste your time on this series ONLY if you have A LOT of time…

…it’d be a mistake saying that I haven’t watched something like… like THIS for a long time. Similar series have always been, exist now and will be produced with frightening regularity. This title is that most people associate “anime” with.
The characters are identical. No, seriously, those lame convulsive attempts in showing distinct individuals are done at step “well, there should be a genki, a cooldere, a maid, a moe, an imbecile, a slut… plus a MC-loyal dog, a muscular kern…” – they are missing out only a normal tsundere. Moreover, these guys are so inexpressive, that you can easily confuse one with another. Confuse a woman with a man. Villains are canonically-overextended, and do canonically repent, receive their forgiveness. It’s a minus, a very big one.
It goes without saying they…

Shukufuku no Campanella
Genre: Slice of Life, Comedy Magic, Drama, action (minor), Ecchi (Minor)
Length: 12 episodes - 24 minutes each.
I'd had Shukufuku in my "To-Watch" list for a while. I'd downloaded the Blue-Ray versions, so I knew I was going to be getting an HQ expereince.
The first thing I wanna say about Shukufuku is it SCREAMS "RPG game". It's EXACTLY like an old style RPG or MMO game. You've got the character classes (Engineer, Mage, Swordsman, Pupeteer, Berserker etc), a fantasy world, standard monsters and a big boss fight at the end. Know this before you get into it, because it stands SO faithfully to that trope. Which, in my opinion, was a GOOD thing.
Shukufuku is about a guild in the land of Ert'Aria called "Clan Oasis". It's headed up by the pretty mage Carina, and incl…

In a world powered by a magical substance called Ale, Leicester Maycraft is a technician working for the adventurous Oasis clan. He and his comrades take jobs helping others in various ways, usually involving stopping Ale-powered "Crystal Monsters." Leicester is living the life, surrounded by a good amount of lovely girls who are always willing to shove themselves in front of him for his attention. Alas, this wonderful world made possible by the abundance of Ale is being threatened by the flow of the Ale itself...
Shukufuku no Campanella is interesting. No wait, that's a lie. It's incredibly boring. Sukufuku is an adaptation of an ero-visual novel, but you would probably never be able to tell this from the anime itself. As a result of the sudden change of direction, everything about Shuku…

As far as this story goes, I'd say that the entire thing is focus on the adventures of Minette, a moving doll that look like an average young girl that has emotions and can think for herself (like Pinocchio), who has come to life because of some powers emanating from falling meteors and just like a young goose hatching immediately identifies Leicester Maycraft as his "PAPA." About the art, I have no qualms about it so I give it a 6 as in fair enough to be appreciated, same with the sound, I kinda like the opening theme. As for the characters, well, I don't have any qualm about their attire, given that the setting is in an alternate world, were people live in harmony with each other, with nature and with the supernatural ( I wish it's like that in reality). But, I can never understand as to…

I'm quite disappointed in Shukufuku no Campanella. I'll like to see it as a light-hearted comedy set in a magical world, because what little story and action they have didn't really matter. I thought it will be better to focus on the characters more since it's the stronger aspect of the series, but the series had a melodramatic ending that's along the lines of "our determination will overcome all odds!"... shounen styled, and really wasted a lot of potential the supporting characters had. This feels a lot like the recent Ookami-san, where a lot of screen time is put into introduction of the supporting characters which fail to play a real role in the story.
The main characters were disappointing. Leicester didn't have any of the energy or manliness the other characters gave him credit for.…

My rating uses the actual words given by MAL. Hence, a 5 is average and a 7 is good. My goal is to be as unbiased as possible so i suggest reading the review rather than looking at my rating to make your choice.
-This is a Harem, but not a romance.
As you can tell from the genre box. However, don't despair if this is not your cup of tea. The main focus of the show is not of winning over each girl, and in fact rarely plays into the plot.
-Fanservice is relatively minimal.
Surprisingly, there are a few episodes that do not contain any at all. In most it is usually delivered in one or two obvious service focused scenes. However, you can expect Minette to be innocent and moé to supplement for this.
-Leicester is not an average lead.
Unlike most of the failures in our harem shows, Leicester…

Shukufuku no Campanella, a series which I thought had a lot of potential but it just turned into something really boring.
Like a lot of anime series, there isn't really plot that is developed until the final episodes. It starts off by introducing the characters in the first episode, which I don't have a problem with. After the introduction of each character the main hero Leicester finds a girl called Minette who wakes up and calls him papa. Each episode the characters would go on a little adventure whether it was fighting monsters or mining for jewels (I think). The problem is each episode usually feels boring and dragged because of the lack of any development whatsoever. I don't mind a series with no plot because there are a lot of those kinds of series out there. However a lot of those…
