Motto To LOVE-Ru

Rito Yuuki never gets a break—he's always finding himself in lewd accidents with girls around him. Although his heart still yearns for Haruna, his childhood love, Rito can't help but question his feelings for Lala, the alien princess who appeared in front of him and declared she would marry him. But now, it's not just Lala he has to deal with: her younger twin sisters, Momo and Nana, have also traveled to Earth, wanting to meet their older sister's fiancé, and just as luck would have it, they end up staying at Rito's home.

Meanwhile, amidst the bustle of his new family members, Yami, the human weapon girl, begins her pursuit for Rito. It's not an easy life for Rito as he deals with uncertain love, punishment for being a pervert, and a girl dead set on murdering him.

It is well known that I am an expert in ecchi anime. I consider myself a ‘guru’ of the genre.

For that reason, I am ashamed that I have not completed watching the legendary saga ‘To Love Ru.’

At the time of writing these lines, I have finished the second season, and although more than 10 years have passed since its release, I do not intend to stop giving my review of this classic.

I am struck by the fact that most reviews give higher ratings to the second season than to the first.

The second season does not change much. Small episodes with sexy adventures with the protagonists ... of the series.

However, the big difference with the first season is that here an episode does not tell a story, but rather three small stories per episode are told. This definitely helps the narrative because in the first season, especially from episode 15 onwards, there are episodes where the plot is stretched in a very forced way and one gets bored.

Here, the author sacrifices depth for quality. We see simpler stories, but of better quality than in the first season.

Other than that, there is not much change. The characters continue with their same concerns, their same jokes, and their same insecurities.

I would say that the only interesting episode is the last one where there is a ‘progress’ in the plot leaving everything to continue.

In conclusion, if you liked the first season, you will undoubtedly enjoy this one. It is simple ecchi food, not much to highlight, but undoubtedly fun.

THE GOOD. A simple but functional comedy that does not bore.

THE BAD. It is not bad precisely. The anime fulfills its objective: to be simple and does not give for more.

COMING SOON. I will finish the first part of the third season. It is said that the quality improves a lot, so I am dying to give my review

Mixed Feelings

Story (6/10) - One of the first noticeable differences with Motto To LOVE-Ru and its predecessor is that Motto is divided into three little mini-episodes. Does that hinder the story in any way? No, but it doesn't really help the fact that there isn't really an overarching storyline.

Art (7/10) - Another notable difference is the art in Motto. It has a more modern feel (2010) than the prequel series.

Sound (6/10) - I'd say the biggest improvement would be the music. The tone of the intro and outro seemed better than before, as well as the visuals along with it.

Character (8/10) - I feel like the ... main aspect of this series was to develop Rito's feelings and the feelings of those around him.

Enjoyment (7/10) - I enjoyed Motto To LOVE-Ru about as much as I did To LOVE-Ru and the OVAs, and I can't wait to start watching To LOVE-Ru Darkness.

Overall (6.8/10) - Motto To LOVE-Ru is essentially more about character development than anything else. I feel as thought its main purpose was to build up for the third series, To LOVE-Ru Darkness.

Preliminary (3/12 eps)

I've watched the first season of this anime, and this series has a good improvement in quality.
The Art Style is still the same, it just has some corrections so it's better than before.

But unfortunately I'm starting to get bored watching this anime, I know this is an ecchi and harem anime, but every episode always has things that are not very useful in my opinion.
For example, there is too much fan service, too much screaming, and this makes me really sick of seeing it.

There is no story progress, it just tells about ordinary daily life with wheels that seem to run in place, each episode ... definitely only contains fan service and screams.
I don't think it's a problem to show perverted things in this anime because that's the genre, it's just that what makes me disappointed is that there is no progress in the story in the anime.
Just spinning around in place, and has no goal or where this anime wants to go.

After seeing all the stupidity and ridiculousness in this series, I decided to stop watching it, Apart from that, the story is very inconsequential and absurd, for example turning into a dog, becoming Peke the clothes robot and many other nonsensical things.
Especially, I'm tired of hearing Rito's screaming voice in this anime.
