I just want to clarify before I begin this review that I didn’t hate this anime. Granted, it wasn’t my favorite, but it wasn’t necessarily bad either. My main issue was it was just a little too boring for me. When I read the summary of the book I expected a little more mystery and intrigue, and instead a lot of the times it was like being in the mind of a teenage girl who just discovered boys. Although it still is a good anime and I will countinue to watch it. Also pls keep in mid I writing this review after watching only 7-8 episodes.

It seems a lot of people really didn't like saint magic power, and I'm right there with them. So yes it is a slice of life, romance, fantasy isekai yes that is a mouthful and that is really all it is. And most people were probably expecting more. But it has the same that each of those genres have just bundled in to one package. Is it bad? No but it probably shouldn't be on the any urgent want to watch list. Still give it the 3/4 epsiode try and if you really like where it's going the stick with it if your a bit indifferent or worse  then just drop it there's really no wow factor here.  I'll do a short detailed review for the more curious, spoiler free for those allergic to spoilers first the animation is pretty solid and consistent, but again shows in general have gotten way better since 2020 so it feels hard to choose higher or lower. It's still quality though  Next is the sound which is same old same old generic sound and the occasional bird chirp nothing stands out.  for the characters this is where a major issue stems from, we have for the most part some really interesting characters with good backstorys and compelling scenes but then they blow it away and push it under the rug so they can focus on cliches girl gets WAY to nervous around guy love interest. She's a grown ass woman getting nervous like a teenager with her first crush. It was a huge hamper. finally the story there really wasn't any it was a slice of life but its a isekai fantasy abliet with a generic magic system but it's at least tries to show it but it's and is void of ANY story propellant after I think episode 6 it's just becomes saint+love interest and friends. And also the romance thing goes absolutely no where (shocker)  So stuffing this saint into a box and forgetting about I'd have to say it's another example of a show that could've been better but does nothing and in a bad way. For those who are bored then sure give it a watch but otherswise I would just skip it it's not worth the time well that was longer than expected but hey if you made it this far thanks for the read and have a good day!

Read the manga skip the anime. The anime is boring, nothing happens, no personalities, a short read to read when you're not bored as it will make it worse, and this anime is the definition of boredom. For starters I can't tell you much about the anime, I've watched everything and it's plain, dull, and the worst anime I've watched this year! Art is fine, not the greatest quality but nothing terrible about it. I still dont know the plot or the characters even after all of this. Even if you enjoy slice of life this is too melodramatic!
