Mei Ayazuki is just your ordinary, everyday high-school girl. That is until one night, when the moon is full and red, she’s transported through time to the Meiji Period by Charlie, a self-proclaimed magician.She ends up in a strange, Meiji-era ‘Tokyo’ where the existence of ghosts is accepted. Led by Charlie, she finally arrives at the Rokumeikan. There, waiting for her to arrive, are the historical figures Ougai Mori, Shunsou Hishida, Otojirou Kawakami, Kyouka Izumi, Gorou Fujita, Yakumo Koizumi, and Tousuke Iwasaki.Whilst interacting with these men, she discovers she is a Tamayori - someone who can see ghosts - a skill that is highly valued in the Meiji Period. Due to these powers, her relationship with the men begins to change As she gets to know these handsome men in a new era she just can’t get used to, a love begins to grow within her.Will Mei be able to return to her time? What will become of her love - a love that crosses the boundaries of time and space? There are a handful of bishounen anime this season, but the only one I care for is Meiji Tokyo Renka, which is actually a reverse harem.

It’s an isekai anime whose main character, Mei, time travels to the Meiji Period where she meets many bishounen including Ougai, who falls for her and declares her to be his fiance. It turns out that Mei has special powers to see spirits, which makes her an asset, whether or not any of the boys want to admit it. Out of the three episodes I’ve watched, I think Meiji Tokyo Renka brings the same old reverse harem plot that we’re all familiar with, so it’s not exactly anything new. However, I do enjoy it to some extent.
I mean, I like it a lot more than Nil Admirari, which I think had a similar feel since both main characters have special powers to deal with the supernatural. Mei isn’t dislikable either. She’s more interesting than the main character of Amnesia. The only problem I have is that some of the bishounen characters can be cringy.
I find Yakuma especially cringy because his personality just contrasts too much with what I think of for a megane character. On top of that, he’s over the top. I just don’t appreciate characters like him.
I honestly don’t think Meiji Tokyo Renka is as terrible as all of the Touken Ranbu anime that have been released, so I’m going to keep watching. Diablo 3 barbarian immortal king build. You never know what might surprise you.
