04/16/2014: ForeverInspired [ Already Rated ]

Violence / Gore: It's mostly comical in this section. There are attempts at a certain person's life, but Spoiler: nothing really comes of them.

Nudity / Sexual Content: This is the section to be wary of. The main character is an "otaku" and loves certain trolls when it comes to ladies anime (for example, breasts).

Potentially problematic theological themes: It's set in a world with magic.

Other potentially problematic themes: Again, nothing really here to worry about. In fact, there are a lot of good themes in the anime. It encourages developing better relationships between different races, not becoming a shut-in, and the importance of standing up for what you believe in.

FINAL VERDICT: While the large amounts of fan-service can be a huge letdown, this is a very interesting series. I can't say that it's deep, but it is definitely something that might be appreciated (especially if you get some of the otaku jokes). Basically, this is an anime about a main character promoting anime and manga. It is not one of the first things that I'd recommend, but it's certainly watchable.
