This Definitely Has An Interesting Concept
larrimus2 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I'll be honest. The whole plotline where Akari was so quick to love and trust Menou made me think rather poorly of this anime. It seemed like a rather egregious contrivance to create a Yuri anime. However, I kept watching because the English voices of Menou and Momo are Yukino and Yui from My Teen Romantic Comedy.

Having watched The Executioner and Her Way of Life this far, I can say that it does get interesting, at least in my opinion. Now, is it good? I'm not sure I can say that, but it definitely has a unique premise and I've enjoyed it. What can I say? I'm a sucker for stories of romance.

Something different on isekai anime after a long time
alwaysreadytofight12 November 2022
I saw many isekai shonen anime & 80 % of them relay same concept & style. But glad this is one totally different with deep sense and of course after long time. This first episode of "Executioner and her way of life" has a solid start with unique concept & to what looks like nothing but a villainess/murderous aura style, but plays it safe in regards to what's in store for other episodes.

After watching first episode i have this anime 9/10 rating. No unnecessary drama & best story line-up won the show. I'm sure Good story with interesting mysterious plots of this anime will take big turn in future of their animators to bring second season. Desperately waiting for it.

Good luck and thanks for bringing this in todays anime world where 60-70% anime based on same type of story lineups.

Highly underrated anime
veronikah-1439617 January 2023
I don't get why the rating is so low. After tons of same isekai stories this one has pleasantly surprised me. I was ready to drop it halfway through the first episode, but then I finally got what I searched for - isekai yuri anime with strong female lead not afraid of blood and unusual fantasy world. I saw some people judging the mc for her violent actions and it honestly makes me laugh. The title kinda implied this, don't you think? Executioner turned out to be an actual executioner. Who would've thought. I like the characters, the dynamics and the concept of time turning. Highly recommend watching this anime.

Unfortunately bad story.
boghnn17 March 2023
A disgusting story that I recommend not watching.

It seems that whoever wrote this novel has a psychological complex. They kill innocent people treacherously.

Then they kill a girl, but the girl does not die. Then they ask for her help.

A unique isekai
phungphuoc-612519 March 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Been watching anime for over a decade, and I was bored with how much these RPG isekai infested the norm. But thanksfully, TEAHWOL offers a fresher start.

The focus on yuri makes this series fundamentally different from other novels and anime about those who end up in another world. Often, girls are reincarnated in another world and draw attention from physically attractive men. The parallel world of TEAHWOL is different from other series I've seen. There isn't a science fiction element though the series fall into the common stereotypes for the genre. Rather, it combines the best elements of yuri stories with the best ones in isekai. Although the series has monsters, it is not based on or akin to a video game. Instead, it is a mix of romance, adventure, and suspense.

It's unfortunate that the anime only covers the 1st 2 volumes since picking up the novels, things really start to heat up in vol 3.

Twisted mind people plz watch this
malayakumar-278106 December 2022
I literally never gave any series 1 rating. This is worst. Let me tell you if you love twisted things you can watch this.i am not a fan at all of this type genre. The background music is good,the sound effects are pretty clean and the concept of the use of magic is also great,still i am saying once again i hate twisted psycho animes. This series had potential.still i hate this. Dont waste your time like me please.i seriously regret the time i had to spent in this anime's 6 episode. Annoying,i literally never gave any series 1 rating. You can understand how much i hate this. You can watch but please thoroughly check out my review first.

Pretty good
kalyforger9 March 2024
The Executioner and Her Way of Life. In this story people getting summoned from Japan with powers has been a regular occurrence for a long time and has sometimes had disastrous consequences for the new world. Disastrous the point where there are executioners trying to eliminate "otherworlders".

It's quite good imo. It's rare to see an isekai that isn't the usual isekai for the sake of it, no JRPG element, no power fantasy, and it gets straight to the point. The adventures-like journey feels fresh. The theme song fits well, there's some questionable CGI abased the body horror of the final boss but it looks pretty most of the time. Recommend for someone wanting a new taste.

If Talentless Nana was a yuri fantasy isekai, but worse
xperakis2 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
If you have read and were disappointed by Talentless Nana, you will feel similar with this. First of, this is clearly a TN clone; the first episode begins with an abandoned/mistreated mc who bonds with a girl, who *shocked plot twist gasp* betrays and kills him by the end of the episode because she belongs in an organization that put her up to the task as the people she kills have special powers that can threaten the world.... Does this seem familiar?

The difference is what happens after. While talentless nana relies on the side characters being borderline the operators of the (re)TARDIS, this one relies overly on the cute and somewhat spoiled antics of the love interests to prevent you from thinking "Wait, if you admit the guys you kill are innocent and have no fault in all this because they are just summoned here.... Why tf don't you kill **THE GUYS WHO KEEP SUMMONING THEM INSTEAD???**" So yeah, still braindead plot, but for different reasons.

It's like as if the Mexican cartel is shipping people who are forced to carry drugs over the US border and in order to combat the danger this presents the US border patrol decides to gather up the poor people forced into this, take them in a shelter and give them food and clothes only to take them in a shower room and gas them with Zyklon B. Without, you know, doing anything about the cartel who has about 50 more such groups of innocent victims ready to be shipped over.

Finally, the main character is just.... Extremely unlikable. And yet somehow has a couple of young girls drooling all over her. Because yeah, a traitorous snake of a murderer who keeps killing off the victims instead of the perpetrators to end this once and for all is prime love material. Yay....?

Better than I have expected
landlubber-5666519 March 2024
One of the risks you take going into a light novel adaptation these days is whether or not the anime is just going to end up as a glorified commercial for the books. Y'all know what I mean; it's when you have cool characters in a great story that run smack into a cliffhanger that may not ever be resolved with another season, which means that your only options are to seek out the books (and that's if you're lucky enough to have localized versions of the books to turn to). All of this is to say that I never expected the ending of The Executioner and Her Way of Life to feel especially conclusive, but I sure was preparing myself to at least be underwhelmed. Thankfully, the anime does a great job of wrapping up the current storyline while still leaving room for lots more intrigue and tragedy down the road, which is basically everything you could ask for in a finale for a season that may or may not ever get a proper follow up.

I'll be honest: I have a really hard time getting into light novels, since I've never been impressed with the writing in any of the ones that I've read before, and I haven't heard great things about the quality of Executioner's prose, specifically. Still, it says something that I liked the anime version of The Executioner and Her Way of Life enough that I'm halfway considering giving the novels a shot anyways. It wasn't a perfect series, but it's fascinating characters and world were wrapped up in a genuinely compelling story, and that's more than enough to earn my seal of approval. All we can do now is pray that there is just a little bit of justice in this world. If a godforsaken curse like The Fruit of Evolution can get a second season, then there is no reason that Executioner can't get one as well.

zero substance
negahbana4 March 2024
One of the worst animes I've seen in years. No original plot, no profound meaning, no character growth. Just a generic world of tragedy with MCs who are slaves to a system, one with their eyes wide open and another an emotionless husk we have to try and empathize with and excuse her actions because she's a love interest. She's so terribly written. Im not sure what the creative process looked like while writing this story but there were some major mistakes. Hands down one of the worst stories in existence. Can't believe it was actually considered. There's trash then there is this. Can't believe someone would make this into an anime.
