Oushitsu Kyoushi Heine

To be honest, this was the best slice of life anime I have ever watched. It bought together comedy and seriousness into the story which made it well-balanced. One key point that was well made in the anime was the character development. Since the cast was quite small, the main characters all had excellent personality change throughout the story. I could remember their names and personalities very clearly and even though Heine doesnt have much emotions shown through his face or in the story, I could still feel like his personality/person in general was complete. Although I dont think the opening song was catchy to me, I liked the ending song in the final episode, it made me feel happy and sad at the same time since the story is ending. One con though, is the similarity in the voices of the characters. Even though I know the characters by their faces and names, its hard to distinguish them by their voices. It seems to me that Heine had a few similar voices in the same anime. Although there were pros and cons in this story, I still enjoyed it throughout. Everything was well-paced and balanced. I hope this review was somewhat useful to you. :)

This anime is about 4 prince's who are not very keen on learning, but our main character Heine changes it, of course. Who would guess that? This anime has very straightforward plot. We first get to know all of boys. And the plot is wandering about the same thing (one of our princes has a problem and Heine is there to help to him overcome it) in almost every episode. This got boring after second prince. The main "antagonist" was very weak and I don't even know if i can call him like that. Even though connection between Heine and ****** was obvious from the very beginning it was something refreshing in this story. I liked the flashbacks. And for story that's it. Nothing amazing, but it wasn't too bad either. I don't have much to say about animation. It's average. Chibis were cute. I didn't see any mistake in artwork. It has nice opening to listen, the ending doesn't stand out either. I don't remember hearing any background music. It's just bland In section of characters there isn't anything new. Heine is the new royal teacher in the palace. He isn't discouraged by behavior of boys. His attitude reminds me a little of Koro-sensei, because he has different method of teaching for all of his students. His characteristic feature is the appearance, because he looks much younger than his real age and he's considered a child by people he is meeting. It was at least a few times part of joke. And it started to bore me after second time of mentioning it. The least favorable character for me is Leonhard. He is 15 years old, but is acting like a child. He annoyed me a little. Next is Licht - I actually liked him, because he really cared about others and worked really hard. He wanted to be independent and didn't want to rely that much on others. Burno at start is arrogant and I didn't like fact that he judged people by fact if they went to university or not. Of course he changes after he meets Heine. Kai is misunderstood by people at first, cause his communicating skills are very low, but he overcomes it later in series. His bond with sister and pet is really adorable and cute. The last one is Victor - his bond and friendship with Heine was really heartwarming. I probably like him the best. The characters are black and white. Their personalities are just like thousand of others. Even though they changed after meeting Heine it's just too predictable.

To put simply, the characters are great!!!! I think the plot can be a bit slow moving and a bit repetitive with the -prince has a bad trait-> Heine helps to fix said trait->Heine acknowledges prince for who he is->everyone gets closer- in the beginning but each episode focuses on the adorable personality issues of all the characters and Heine has a past himself that we dive into. I don't think the art is anything too spectacular, but there is definitely nothing wrong with it and this anime's focus isn't to have the most beautiful scenes in anime. The focus of this anime is character growth and it is definitely meeting that goal!

I adore this anime and I hope that it will continue. Story: 10 Story is about 4 princes of Grannzreich kingdom who are in need of a tutor for their grooming to be a future king. They happend to reject all previous tutor, so king had to call, Heine Wittgenstein. All of them have different personalities with which Heine has to deal with in order to teach them well. Story is very sweet and it has a lot of lessons that are even useful for us as readers, not only for princes. Characters:10 Characters development is great and afer every lesson they princes change their behavior and way of thinking. Each character has flaws and virtues and they are very easy to like. 4 princes are very different from each other and have never been out of palace. They have no image of how people live. I personaly like the most how they personalites develop during time and how they actions reflect that. King is also very interesting character and Heine brings a lot of myster in beginning. Enjoyment: 10 I'm right now on chapter 59 and after every chapter I don't get cold. I can't wait for new story and I can't wait for some misterjes to be resolved. The only flaw of it is that story doesn't go as fast as I hoped it would, but it simply doesn't have to.

Hey folks, this will be a review for Oushitsu Kyoushi Heine. It's not often to find a good teacher anime as of late. Many shows have tried the super teacher theme, and very few have done it right. This happens to be one that has. The story revolves around 4 princes and their royal tutor. As the royal tutor he is charged with treating the kings 4 children equally, and grooming them for the throne. The show is episodic, each episode has its own issue which generally relates to a certain princes issue. Each prince has his own personality and strength and our MC Heine reaffirms their strength while twisting their weakness and making it work for them. Though each princes story was entertaining it was a bit bland on the world building. The fact that they are princes mattered in the most loose since. I knocked a few points off because I felt the world around the princes didn't matter, which clashed with the main theme a bit. The art was great. The soundtrack wasn't up my alley. The characters are what make this show. Heine our main character is the main source of comedy. He is a "Full grown adult" but has the appearance of a child. He's the mysterious super teacher archetype character but they don't go overboard making him crazy or fantastical. The princes all have their own personality, but describing them here would be a spoilers. I however really loved how they handled them. Overall I enjoyed this anime. I don't think Ill watch it again unless a season 2 comes out, which is possible. However I really want to hand it to the people behind the series. To write a story so its interesting, yet to not overstep you bounds and turn it into a crazy mess is rare. Each character was believable, and you get attached to them in a natural way. The side stories that crop up feel well thought out. The ending wraps everything up yet it also allows you a hope for a season 2. The comedy though thin was a well placed. The drama not overbearing, which I cant praise enough. In short I suppose the biggest strength of this anime is that it felt like it was a completed idea. You don't really wonder if they had different writers or a change in sensibilities along the way. If you like the first episode you'll like the rest of the show. TLDR: Pretty good. Enjoyable characters, good pacing, solid story with a solid ending. Give it a shot.

Now, I had my doubts about this series and to be truthful, I had found it while looking at a 'yaoi list for 2017'. I had read the comments of said listing to find out it wasn't yaoi but I still decided to look into it. From the cover art, I felt it was visually appealing and upon reading what it was about, I felt it could be done well or be total trash. So I took the gamble, and give this show a try. Now, I was going to attempt watching it subbed, as I do most anime, but I had not been up to speed to reading subs as of late to when I found there was a dub, I decided to give that a shot so that I may also give my thoughts on that as well, as many people wish to know how dubs turn out. So, I think I will talk of that first. As far as dubs go, this was fairly well done. The voice fit nicely, and none were grating on the ears. If you saw the face, it was often the voice you'd think would be there. I will admit that at times, the voices did sound strained, it was mostly when the character should be shouting but were holding their voice back in a more controlled tone. When you think of the setting of the story, it does make sense. Royalty needing to control their emotions so as to not show their true self. So, aside this little bit, I still think it fit in some extent. If dubs had a rating section, I'd give it a 9. Now onto the show itself. The story was very engaging, it often had me on the edge of my seat and waiting for more. I wanted to learn more, about the princes, and the royal tutor himself. Even the King, who was a character all of his own and not simply a slid in side character, so to say. Story has been giving a rating of 9. The art was very appealing to the eye, having stunning effects and yet keeping a simple and yet elegant touch. I have to say I found myself admiring the hair, both in design and color. As an artist myself, it has inspired me to try and do a similar style. Art has been given a rating of 10. The music and effects of the show are very well done. I have to say that I did find myself either humming or singing along with the opening. It fits splendidly with the tone and feel of the show. And it didn't get tedious so that one could listen to it every episode it comes on. The ending was also very pleasing but I have to say that I did not pay as much attention to it, as it had a common feel to it that I often overlook. Sound has been given an 8 The characters were all diverse and widely presented. No one had a standard personality, every one was unique and different. Even the guards who were simply side characters. I felt a connection with each that easily made the show more enjoyable. And there was clear development, you can easily see it happen with each new episode. And by the final one, you can see how they've all grown. Character has been given a rating of 10. I enjoyed it very much, from it's stunning story telling to it elegant flow of events and character development. It was a experience to learn about each character, important and not. And any new character that popped up, always gave an explanation or an idea of what their role could entail. It had me on edge and in depth from start to finish. Enjoyment has been given a rating of 10. Overall, I give it a 10 for a thorough presentation and well thought out story. So much so that I will have to look into the manga now that the final credits had rolled. I must learn more about the characters and their world, for it had caught my attention. I hope this review has helped in your choice to watch it. ~Crusnik

[ Story: 8 Art: 10 Sound: 6 Character: 9 Enjoyment: 8 Overall: 8 ] ( This is my first review here I hope its okay) So I went in with this anime, with very little expectation as I thought it was going to be just fan service with cute humor. But as it went on, I started to enjoy this a lot more then I thought I did.. Yes it does have that ' fan service' feel too it, but don't be scared to try this out, its not cringy, every episode was entertaining, there wasn't any boring filler episodes.. Every episode will make you smile, laugh and cry. The most part of this anime I have to say I loved the most, where all the characters. none of them fell into a shadow of another, all characters where equally interesting, every prince had there own unique personality. I thought I knew who my favouite prince was, but after competing it all, I just cannot decide! Of course the main character Heine's was just fantastic. He showed very little personality, but he just gave so much.. This anime will give you a lot of feels, and make you appreciate things more and to also judge less!

(NOT A SHOUNEI-AI/BL/REVERSE HAREM ANIME! ) (No Yaoi Undertones) My god is this anime heartwarming! I never thought that I will like this anime this much. The main focus of this anime is definitely its characters. Each character is very relatable. Although their personalities are still pretty cliche but I still love it. I didn't find any characters in this anime to be annoying. Every character has their childish side and this anime shows how they develop to become a full noble prince. The OP and ED theme are both catchy enough. The visuals are nothing special. The dance sequence by the voice actors for the ED theme is pretty well choreographed and fluid. For an idol fan like me, they did impress me. The art and animation done by studio Brain's Base is spectacular and detailed. They put a lot of effort into the last episode and I love it. The ending for this series is very satisfying and the developments given to the characters didn't went to waste. Although the ending is predictable, nevertheless they still did a good job at executing it, I highly recommend this anime if you like anime like Assassination Classroom or you just want a heartwarming SOL anime.

This is one of the most underrated shows this season in my opinion... OK... Lets start with my review. Story - 8 A Royal tutor is hired to teach four spoiled princes. Well not unique or original. We had Great Teacher Onizuka and Denpa kyoushi before this. Art - 7 The art is decent. well.. Good for a comedy anime. the chibi moments were funny. Sound - 8 OP-ED was okay. Voice acting is really good considering the fact that most of main characters are voiced by fairly new voice actors and those who have not voiced many roles. Music-7 OST is composed by Keiji Inai. The man behind the soundtrack of "Is it Wrong to pick girls in a Dungeon" and "Heavy Object". The soundtrack is decent for a comedy anime and fits the atmosphere perfectly. Characters - 8 I really like the main character. he's kind of overpowered. All four Princes have their own unique personalities and get good development throughout the series. which is quite surprising coming from comedy anime. Enjoyment - 9 Overall I really enjoyed this series. Even though it's tagged as a comedy it has equal amount of good drama. This series is a mix of Barakamon, Denpa Kyoushi and G.T.O... If you liked any of those then I recommend you watch this.

When I was scoping out the Spring 2017 Anime line-up, The Royal Tutor didn’t really hit my radar. From the synopsis and the preview graphics that had been released, I honestly thought it was going to be a very cheesy show with some strong boy-love vibes. As a person who doesn’t usually go for the boy-love genre, I wasn’t interested in it at all. But something about it, and I have no fricking clue what, told me to at least watch the first episode so I could confirm my feelings. I’m really glad that I listened to that tiny, not-so-weird-at-all-little-voice-in-my-head because this series ended up being surprisingly decent. When I began it I got a very strong Ouran High School Host Club aura from it. You’ve got four boys who very quickly get unique names via our Heine-sensei, and they each have a relatively tropey persona. Initially, this made me very hesitant in watching the second episode. No offence towards Ouran, but this trope is so fucking overdone that I didn’t want to deal with another show that revolved around it. Luckily, my fascination with the mysterious tutor outweighed my frustration and I continued onwards. My expectations for the show started to grow, but didn’t really turn into anything fantastic as I watched. Mid-way through the season when we still hadn’t learned anything about the Royal Tutor’s past, I began to feel highly sceptical about the writing. I knew that we were running out of episodes and time for a good, fluid explanation of how a teacher could also be so skilled in combat as to equal a highly-seasoned warrior. There were some very vague hints, but not much else to go on. I also found there to be a slight imbalance on the attention given to each of the four boys, where a couple of them received a lot more screen time than the others. These two aspects actually filled me with a bit of anxiously negative anticipation. I’ve seen it many times before. A show starts off wonderfully, but then it overreaches and falls terribly short in its execution. Luckily, that didn’t really happen with The Royal Tutor. While it’s far from being a glorious masterpiece, it has a decent number of facets that make it quite an enjoyable anime series. The first are the characters themselves. We get to learn about each one of the boys and why they are so vehemently against tutors and education. The reasons aren’t superficial. They are laced with insecurities and bad experiences. Occasionally a reason for one son will seem minor in comparison to another, but it just adds an empathetic dimension to their personas that makes you want to root for their success. I like that these boys aren’t perfect. Their flaws make them that much more engaging. The tutor himself is someone who reminded me of Onizuka from the anime series GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka. He is a man who took the time to understand the underlying issues that kids have in order to better tackle them with a fitting solution. Heine and Onizuka knew that kids aren’t going to respond to a one-size-fits-all solution. Each kid is different with unique issues and problems. To help said kids, you really have to be willing to get to know them and distinguish them as individuals in a way most people don’t want to deal with. Remember how I mentioned earlier I was worried about the imbalance of screen-time for the boys? It turns out that some of the boys needed the extra attention because their problems needed that extra support. It also played very well towards plot progression because the imbalance was created to fit the unique issues and insecurities that each of the sons were going through. For example, one of the kids is a very shy and timid person with a fearsome outwardly appearance. He wasn’t shown nearly as much as I had hoped (he became my favourite character because I could relate to him like you wouldn’t believe) because of this demeanour. It wouldn’t have made sense for him to be sprouting up all over the place, unlike the youngest brother who’s a social whore. The themes in the show were also a bit comforting. Most of it had to deal with accepting yourself for who you are, even if other’s can’t accept you. It was dealt with in a positive way that doesn’t negatively portray awkward social skills, or fetishise issues involving a lower intelligence, etc. etc. I like that the changes that the boys make are gradual instead of just being an instant fix as soon as they comprehend the lessons they’re learning. There’s also a bit of focus on not judging anyone by their appearance or initial mannerisms because there’s a huge chance that you will be wrong about them, friendships come in all shapes and sizes, and soft things will always be cute. All of these elements made for a pleasant watching experience, however, it does have its faults. The humour, while being kooky and a light-hearted means at softening tough topics, is really predictable at times and felt cheesy and out-dated. The story in its entirety is of average quality and can make you feel pretty indifferent about whether you’re having a good time or not. Although I do like the characters, nothing within the The Royal Tutor truly made me anticipate the next episode with impatient, passionate glee. I felt so apathetic about having to wait a week for new content, or when the content finally did arrive I’d watch everything else before really getting to this. The only thing that I was super fricking curious about was Heine’s past, which was a small bit of a let-down because the morsels of clues left in the wake of one episode to the next made it sound like Heine would have a really badass history. Instead the truth was disappointing and anticlimactic. The animation itself is pretty much typical; nothing extraordinary or breath-taking. It’s clean and seemingly well-developed. I found the outdoors scenery to be more pleasant than the interiors. There are a lot more details that go into creating the environment and atmospheres amidst nature than within buildings. We see this with the mansion, or palace, as it just felt like an atypical reproduction of a European mansion that seems quite standard in anime with such structures. Within a local café in town, we get a similar situation. The café does look to be quite large and it is nicely presented, but it doesn’t encapsulate the same sort of attention to details that the natural atmospheres do. Mid-way through the series, we do get a whisper of a small plot that’s being hatched to affect who will inherit the throne if and when the king passes on. This is something that felt extremely out of place to me for multiple reasons. Firstly, it randomly just pops up at the finale of an episode or two and then isn’t brought up again until a few episodes later. Secondly, when it is brought up, it’s only for a couple of minutes; not nearly enough to make any sort of impact. It makes one last appearance during the final episodes, and it honestly felt like the only reason it was tossed into the series to begin with was to add some tension and intrigue to the plot. Overall, The Royal Tutor is a good, fun average anime to check out. The cast is engaging and you can’t help but feel for them in certain situations. The story is very chill and simple, as is the animation and music. But if you’re in the mood for something that’s going to blow your mind, or totally make your jaw drop, then this anime is not for you. 6 tortes outta 10!

This was my favourite anime of the season and is pretty high up there overall. While at the beginning I thought it would be lacking in plot and just be about cute princes the plot development was great and kept me on the edge of my seat. More into the plot I've given the story a 10 as, the backstories of each prince and Heine himself are great, they actually make sense in terms of storytelling and characterisation while allowing the plot itself to develop. The underlying issue about who is trying to sabotage the princes and the lack of knowledge about Heine's past keeps the story interesting. The storyline allowed each character to develop while viewers gain insight into their past and the challenges they must overcome. I really loved this aspect as not many anime choose to have a holistic focus on so many main characters. In terms of each character individually, they were all very well fleshed out and character relationships were great. Due to this I've also given characters a 10. I've given the art style an 8 because while it was good to look at, and tied the story together it was nothing amazing. Even so, the character designs and overall aesthetic looked great. For me the sound was a 7, I'm basing this mainly on the introduction and ending songs as there wasn't much music throughout, or not that I noticed much. Both introduction and ending song were great and I encourage viewing them, they fit with the theme of the anime and worked very well. What drags this score down is the lack of sound elsewhere. While I typically don't focus on sound and did't notice anything bad about in the anime sound wasn't really used to change the mood. I really enjoyed this anime, watching it was fun and the numerous cliff hangers made waiting for each new episode a challenge. I've given the enjoyment value a 10. As such I really recommend watching this anime if you get a chance. While it seems aimed towards a female audience don't let character design fool you, the storyline and character development make up for any issues. Overall I've rated this anime a 9 and will hope for a second season.

Probbaly one of the best slice of life anime ever The story is about a teacher who teaches 4 princes, preparing them to be fit for the next king. Their relationship started off very bad, especially with prince Leonhard I laughed a lot and this anime never failed to entertaint me. The story is a so-so but that's expected since this is just a slice of life. But the story is abit become more interesting as the eldest prince made hsi first appearance and apprently, tho there's no real villain, prince eins with count rosenberg is not good guys for the four princes Heine is so cute. He's an old shota

How did I not watch this sooner? Truly one of the best I've seen in my short time in watching anime; and with no boring qualities. Story: Simple concept; a tutor comes in to teach 4 young princes about what it takes to be a king but also make sure it's to their unique ways. At first, I thought it was quite simple and didn't think that it would go very far, but the more I watch, the more it just became something so invigorating and exciting to see what the princes will learn; the lessons Heine taught to the princes can even apply to how we live our everyday lives and it shows how it just works so well. Even when delving into past events to show what happened between Heine and Viktor, everything made sense and answers all the looming questions. Art: The art is quite unique to someone who enjoys a more traditional style, but it just becomes the norm the more you watch and you just enjoy all those beautiful details; the backgrounds are spectacular, the characters look very unique yet charming, and even subtle things like the eyes can look so scary yet bring so much light to the character, which fits perfectly with this show. Sound: I never once had problems with how everything sounded. The music is calming and charming, the voices in both sub and dub are very well done, and I never once had trouble with what I listened to; this is coming from someone who is sound sensitive, so this means a lot to me. Character: I've never had a single problem with any characters in this show; even the villain characters were well done. Heine is very stern and quite childish, but he was also fair, kind, and never looked down at them like they were stupid while learning from the princes themselves. Leonhard started as cold, dumb, and very much a tsundere, but he grew to be a strong, caring, creative, and fun-loving prince who could make the town better. Bruno started as a cold-hearted genius who looked down on everyone, but the moment he worked with Heine and saw him as a master, he grew smarter but also uses said intelligence to teach others and improve the kingdom. Licht was viewed as a playboy that always loved to mess with girls and doesn't want to do his responsibilities, but later shows his serious and intellectual side that really goes out to make the townsfolk happier in their hometown. Kai was always the quietest and very scary, but as he showed himself more and shared his kindness, he easily became my favorite character and would be a perfect king. Viktor also has his own charms as a king and father, but once you see his past and meeting Heine, you really learn how much good he did to the town; he's not a perfect father, but he's the father the princes deserve. Even the minor characters, from Adele and Maria to Ludwig and Maximilian and even Rosenberg all bring something important to the story and none of them were every pushed too much into the background. Enjoyment: Once I started watching, I just couldn't stop and before I knew it, I was already at episode 7 before checking; I haven't had that occur like that since my first time watching Shimoneta or Ouran High School Host Club, so you know that's a good show. My only complaint is that this should've been a 24 episode thing cause it went by so quickly and by the time I wanted more, it was almost over; so if another season is made, I'll be on it asap. Overall: A pretty much perfect anime that I would rewatch again and would very much recommend to someone wanting a new comedy but with an old-time feel. I truly hope for another season because there's so much more that can be done with Heine and the princes.

"The Royal Tutor" is definity a show that positively surprised me. I went in with vague expectations, since the description and cover reminded me a lot of cheap harem style shows with no real effort behind it. But I was wrong. Boy, was I wrong... I'll try to keep it spoiler free as much as possible. First, let me tell you that "The Royal Tutor" is by any means no masterpiece, but it turned a pretty average setting into an interesting plot with likeable characters and a satisfying conclusion. So I can definitely say that the show turned out pretty solid, although the first few episodes can be a bit slow. My recommendation is to keep watching until at least episode 4 or 5, so the story can get to the point of interest. Our set of main characters starts out pretty one-sided, but that doesn't last long. When our title-giving tutor enters the room, we meet four not so friendly and very entitled princes, who really don't want to acknowledge their new tutor, Heine. Of course he has basic informations about his new students, but turns out, the informations are at the very least incomplete, if not even false. So he decides to screw them and draw a picture for himself. There will be challenges, but he's determined to face them. That pretty much concludes episode 1 of the show. (And that's it for the spoilers, I promise.) Although the overall pacing of the show can feel a bit slow and boring at the beginning, it eventually gets better a lot and I really enjoyed the time I spent with all the characters. What began as a seemingly boring, shallow comedy show with the occasional chibi-comedic relief, turned out to be a heartwarming lesson (hah!) about character growth and responsibility. Even though the setting is placed in the typical european-style medieval kingdom, the lessons the characters (and we through watching) learn, are based on common sense and decent social manners. So it's definitely a story about character growth. And growing they did. No character is the same at the end and I felt even a bit proud watching them facing the challenges they're given. So yeah, I enjoyed the show a lot. If you can live with a show that needs a bit of time to reach the interesting parts, than I can definitely recommend "The Royal Tutor"!

Equally charming and stern, Heine Wittgenstein is a brilliant man who commands respect, despite his short, childlike stature. Thus, the king of Grannzreich has called upon Heine to undertake a daunting task that has driven away many before him—become the new royal tutor to four princes who are in line for the throne. The four heirs each have very distinct and troublesome personalities: Licht, the flirtatious youngest prince; his immature older brother Leonhard; Bruno the studious third prince; and Kai, the oldest of the four and the most reserved. Hilarity ensues as Heine attempts to connect with each of the princes in order to groom them for the throne. However, Heine's mysterious past and dark undercurrents in the present may threaten the harmony within the kingdom. Story - it is very fascinating. Characters - most of them are likeable and the princes are all hilarious in their own way. My favourite out of the bunch is prince Leonhard because he's such a relatable character and he's soo cute 🥰 That's a lie though, all the princes are undeniably adorable. Heine is a one of a kind teacher because he just doesn't act like a teacher instead he tries his best to connect to the princes first rather than just teaching them. He is also very mysterious because his past is never revealed and he knew the King before he came to the palace. Animation - It's really colourful and vibrant. The character designs are also great and I like their special art style Enjoyment - I didn't know much about this Anime but I like to explore and discover hidden gems in the Anime community. I think I found this one in a list of a certain website and I was very intrigued because of the title. To begin with, I really liked the royal tutor and the first episode was hilarious. I also really loved the bond and chemistry between the four brothers and their little sister 'Adele'. They genuinely care about each other and always have each other's back. I truly enjoyed seeing their funny interactions and I was never bored watching each episode unfold. Ending - It was PERFECT 😊 To me, what made it soo funny and wholesome were the characters. The princes never thought about the future of the kingdom but after Heine came they changed for the better. Lastly, the last episode was the GREATEST.Anyone who likes comedy anime and heartfelt moments, you will love this anime.
