8/10
Nothing special, but cute, clever and funny

MÄR is a action-packed fantasy "isekai" anime that's great for middle school aged kids. It's very different from most "isekai" because it doesn't revolve around the protagonist gathering a harem of girls like many other "isekai." He just makes some great friends, which are all inspired by fairy tales hence the word "Märchen" in the title, and they go on cool adventures. The plot isn't anything extremely deep or amazingly written, but the show is entertaining, humorous, and really wholesome at times. The theme songs are amazing, the battles can be really interesting at times too. My only gripe is the animation becomes less than desirable later on, but the ending wrapped everything up pretty well at least. I'm glad I sat through all 102 episodes, or I would have missed out on a lot of laughs, fun battles, cool character designs, some emotional bits, and a bunch of other cool stuff.

If you have spare time and are in the mood for some goofy, *usually* kid-friendly action, MÄR is for you. I will warn, though, there are a few perverted jokes, but it's not explicit, there's no blood, and there's minimal cursing. No worse than any other TV-PG show.
