Yuusha Party wo Tsuihou sareta Beast Tamer, Saikyoushu no Nekomimi Shoujo to Deau

This is a light fluffy series good to relax with and suitable for the family. Even though Rein, the Beast Tamer, accumulates a harem of cute demi-humans, it is like a family and not presented in a perverted or sexual manner.

The story begins with Rein kicked out of a "Hero" team and called useless. Rein is depressed and feels low self worth as he begins a solo career as an adventurer. Rein gradually accomplishes tasks and proves himself. He accumulates his own team of special creatures who support him and make him stronger.

This has a good combination of action adventure, quests, comedy and friendly fun. There are some nasty villains to create dramatic tension but not any blood and gore. This may be boring to some, but just right for others. I think this will share an audience with Land of Leadale. I personally find Leadale slightly more appealing, but Beast Tamer has better animation.

This anime series is centre on Rein; he is a 'beast tamer' in a fantasy world. He was part of Arios, a hero's, party but other members thought his skills to be of little worth so kicked him out. While looking for new work he rescues Kanade. She is a member of a cat tribe, one of the superior species. By taming her he also gains her powers. As the series progresses he tames more superior species. With each one tamed his powers grow and his old allies start to wonder if they made a mistake when they expelled him.

I thought this was a fun little series if not the most original. It is clearly a harem series but manages to avoid excessive fan service. The story is fun and our protagonists are likable. There aren't too many surprises to be had... we can guess any threat Rein encounters will become part of his group if she happens to be a cute girl. The animation and character designs are solid enough. Overall I'd say this is worth a watch if you enjoy the genre. The end of the series suggests that what we've just watched is just the start of the story... whether or not more will be made is less obvious, I suspect not but would watch if there is more.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

This series is not a must watch still decent.you can have fun watching this.all characters art style are good and likeable.you can watch it incase of change of pace.although everything in this series is predictable still it is ok. Another overpowered main character in a unique way.the protagonist isn't overpowered on his own but by some others he is the strongest.well you can find out after watching this.the power system is unique and i liked the concept.this had the potential but couldn't held its place strong.still im waiting for S2 hoping for some good actions and romance.there was no romance at all in S1 and that pissed me off.

(16+) The first episode or two really didn't do it for me, but it ended up being a really good show and if you like fantasy adventure anime's this is a worthwhile one to watch. IMDB lists this as TV-MA because of some child physical abuse which was kind of surprising to see in this otherwise pretty straightforward tale. Just a few small scenes but I think that's why IMDB rated it MA. So, if you are overly offended by such things (and it is heinous, of course) then please steer clear of this otherwise very wholesome and uplifting series. The male protagonist is one of the most sincere, empathetic, and earnest heroes I have seen in anime. Recommended!

If you're looking for an anime with a unique plot, you won't find thar here. In fact, as far as storytelling goes, it's pretty paint by numbers for this genre, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

The anime is light and fluffy with cute characters that stretches the "Babe of the Week" storytelling across a 12-episode season.

My main gripes of the first season is the complete lack of character development and the fact that Reign is just too much of a nice guy. Especially with someone who has childhood trauma, it's amazing how he just cuts through the nonsense to get to the point, especially in the final episodes.

I don't know if there's going ro be a second season, but if there is, it needs to address the character development issues immediately.
