I was about as bored by this anime as I am stunned by the positive reviews. I am a massive fan of spiders, being an arachnologist myself, and I've enjoyed cutesy stuff in the past like Welcome to Demon School, so should have been an easy sell. The problem is... everything. I found myself fighting the urge to sleep.
The dialogue is generic, boring and uninteresting. The story is split between the spider and the other classmates who were reincarnated as humans. There was no introduction to these characters before reincarnation so what the point of this reincarnation is I don't know and yet the ... characters constantly make references to their old relationships with each other that we haven't seen and so don't care about. By the fourth episode I chose to start skipping the scenes with the other characters because there's nothing of value there, just nonsensical character developments and cliches.
The scenes with the spider can be genuinely fun as she is forced to fight strategically and there is a sophisticated skill tree levelling system. However the actual animations and creature designs let this down. The art style is trash.
I do not understand the score of 7 at all. I've watched many anime in the past with much lower scores that I've enjoyed. The most memorable moment of this anime was seeing the bizarre 10/10 reviews.

Genuinely very confused by the relatively low score on this anime, and the bad reviews make just as little sense. The good reviews don't make much sense either. This just a good anime. Every scene is beautiful. The writing is fun. The theme is vampires, every one loves vampires? The music is also perfect every scene. I just started watching this after skimming through "So I'm a Spider, So What?" which has some the most boring writing and ugliest art I've seen in an anime and it has a significantly higher score than this. I am very very confused.

I would suggest just giving this anime ... a go and ignoring the score and the reviews.
