Bofuri: Je suis pas venue ici pour souffrir alors j'ai tout mis en défense.

This show is definitely not perfect. Its mechanics are inconsistent (though some are very cool (like skill training on use(final fantasy II anyone?)), some lines.. are like as if the character just spent 5 minutes being the opposite of who they are, and then they say something as if to try to convince you they are this thing. And there is no way such a person would become so overpowered..

But still, its ridiculousness is part of its charm. It's a beautiful fantasy world, and the hi-jinks the character gets into are so fun and hilarious.. I cant help but really enjoy watching this. So silly and dumb. But so cute and fun. I cant help but cheer for this lovable main character.

I would love to just binge seasons of this show, it looks like they are past the manga? I tried finding more.

Also, thank God, there is no smutty fan-service. Its just adorable moe goodness.

I gave it an 9. But I love it like its a 10.

Thank you to all who helped to bring us this wondrous, bright, fun, good-hearted and silly world.

EDIT: Season 2 is out Yay!, the graphics seem worse (or were they sometimes that bad?) regardless. I get to binge another season as I wished. The OP protagonist is still killing it and having hardly no difficulty, making this show still a warming respite.

The main character Maple starts playing an online game and decides to minmax defense so she doesn't get hurt. Maple stumbles into friends and powerups that complement her well.

The show is incredibly light-hearted and doesn't have the depth of other popular anime in the genre do, such as Shield Hero or Log horizon. This show also doesn't have the character progression that shows like My Hero academia and One Piece have. BOFURI does not have much fan service and lacks the typical harem trope.

The game uses true multiplicative scaling, which complements Maple's build well. No large IRL mmo uses this because it's too hard to balance. Warframe is the closest IRL game I can think of that uses multiplicative gear scaling, but it's still not quite the same. BOFURI is not an accurate representation of modern MMOs, but then again your not here to grind a game. You're here to chill and watch anime.

Here are some similar anime. If you like these, then you will like BOFURI. If you didn't like these, don't watch BOFURI.

-Overlord -One punch man -Irregular at magic highschool -Reincarnated as a slime -Tanya the evil -Shield Hero -How not to summon a demonlord -Philosopher's Grandson -Ultramarine Magmell

Such a cute, funny, and action-packed anime! This anime has got everything, funny characters, cute animals, and an MC so wacky its insane!

The artwork, animation and soundtrack are very well done. There's nothing complicated about the storyline, and no deep character development or emotional scenes. It's sweet, light and funny, and I couldn't stop grinning while watching it. Maple's antics are so far-fetched that it's absurd, but you can't help but root for her.

I love this anime so much! It's super fun to watch and the characters are amazing! It makes me with that New World Online was a real vrmmorpg! I look forward to episode 8!
