Its first episode is one of the best bait-and-switch episodes I\u2019ve seen, and its take on the modern isekai genre is very different from the usual reincarnated\/summoned powerhouse protagonists on a hero\u2019s journey. However, beyond its uniqueness, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Executioner and Her Way of Life <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">finds itself in the interesting position of having a much better written plot than its characters \u2014 two story elements that usually align together to deliver a compelling show.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> follows Menou, a just and kind priestess. She is used to seeing \u201cotherworlders,\u201d people summoned from a country called Japan who are always summoned with greater powers than the ordinary citizens of the world. She takes her duty seriously to guide these otherworlders, and she has always accomplished her job flawlessly until she meets one otherworlder who\u2019s not the same as the rest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is admittedly one of those anime where I enjoyed it purely for its plot and felt no investment for its characters. The world building in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Executioner and Her Way of Life <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is fascinating, and it\u2019s far more than just your usual magical medieval isekai world that we\u2019ve grown used to seeing. The world is so used to seeing Japanese otherworlders that many of its citizens are fluent in Japanese \u2014 a language barrier isekai anime usually wave aside or forget to address. In fact, with how frequently Japanese citizens are summoned, their entire world\u2019s system is tied to the otherworlders\u2019 existence, including government, religion, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a>, and history. The intermingled influences that the otherworlders leave behind is far more reflective of real life society, and it also creates a much wider world with more things than just locations and magic powers to explore.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39246\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39246\" style=\"width: 954px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39246\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2022\/06\/24\/the-executioner-and-her-way-of-life-review\/executioner-ep1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?fit=954%2C523&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"954,523\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Executioner ep1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?fit=300%2C164&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?fit=696%2C782&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-39246 size-full jetpack-lazy-image\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"382\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?w=954&amp;ssl=1 954w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=300%2C164&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=768%2C421&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=696%2C382&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=766%2C420&amp;ssl=1 766w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=696%2C382&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39246\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2022\/06\/24\/the-executioner-and-her-way-of-life-review\/executioner-ep1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?fit=954%2C523&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"954,523\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Executioner ep1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?fit=300%2C164&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?fit=696%2C782&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-39246 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=696%2C382&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?w=954&amp;ssl=1 954w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=300%2C164&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=768%2C421&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=696%2C382&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep1-e1656116161585.png?resize=766%2C420&amp;ssl=1 766w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39246\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Menou the priestess<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;

What I can say is that there\u2019s a lot of intrigue, and even now, I\u2019m still wondering how far back this world\u2019s history has been influenced by the constant summoning. The plot\u2019s ability to use the change in culture and perspectives due to the passage of time to fuel its conflict is very well done, and while certain reveals have been predictable, the anime always manages to throw a curveball to disrupt your dis<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ointment at the initial predictability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">However, the characters just fall flat. While I give credit to the anime for showing genuine fighting skills and strategies, all that alone doesn\u2019t speak to Menou\u2019s personality. I can admire her ability to slit an antagonist\u2019s throat and jump back in caution while also yawning at her plain conversations. She\u2019s calm, collected, polite, and dutiful. She\u2019s here to accomplish her mission, and there\u2019s nothing else happening. Her tone doesn\u2019t change no matter who she\u2019s speaking to, and all that makes her so simple in the grand scheme of things that I\u2019m more interested in seeing her fight than talk.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Akari, an otherworlder, is the more interesting of the two\u2026 kind of. There are two sides to Akari, and the one that\u2019s more complex and hides secrets is the one we see less often. Throughout the series, we see more of the happy girl who pouts playfully, latches herself onto Menou, and doesn\u2019t seem to have any other interest except to crush on Menou and follow her around like a puppy. I must clarify that there is a plot reason for Akari\u2019s more commonly seen side, but it still doesn\u2019t lessen the annoyance whenever I hear and watch her on screen.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39244\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39244\" style=\"width: 955px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39244\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2022\/06\/24\/the-executioner-and-her-way-of-life-review\/executioner-ep6\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?fit=955%2C514&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"955,514\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Executioner ep6\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?fit=300%2C161&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?fit=607%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39244 size-full jetpack-lazy-image\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"375\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?w=955&amp;ssl=1 955w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=300%2C161&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=768%2C413&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=696%2C375&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=780%2C420&amp;ssl=1 780w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=696%2C375&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39244\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2022\/06\/24\/the-executioner-and-her-way-of-life-review\/executioner-ep6\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?fit=955%2C514&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"955,514\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Executioner ep6\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?fit=300%2C161&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?fit=607%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39244 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=696%2C375&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?w=955&amp;ssl=1 955w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=300%2C161&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=768%2C413&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=696%2C375&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep6-e1656116005673.jpg?resize=780%2C420&amp;ssl=1 780w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39244\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One side of Akari is interesting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">The relationships between the characters can also feel lackluster. This is an isekai with a developing lesbian love story, but due to the characters\u2019 bland personalities, the relationship never enticed me. Momo, the last leg of the love triangle, is a pink-haired priestess who obsesses over Menou and hates everyone else. That\u2019s all her personality really is, and it certainly does not lend any favors to an already empty relationship between Menou and Akari.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">The only relationship I enjoyed in the series is between Momo and Princess Ashuna, and that\u2019s largely because of the latter. A warrior princess knight from a disgraced royal family, Ashuna stands out from the cast of characters due to her thrill-seeking attitude, pure raw power, and her ability to disrupt the status quo. She\u2019s the only character capable of counteracting Momo\u2019s apathy and antagonism towards everyone since she just doesn\u2019t care how anyone feelsl or thinks of her and is only following the trail of adrenaline. However, as much as I like Ashuna, I still have to admit that her character\u2019s depth is paper thin \u2014 she\u2019s a confident adventurer type but has no genuine flaws or further complexity to layer her.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">But my god, is the worldbuilding and plot good. The power system is incredibly interesting, and I really like the concept of how each person is assigned a core word upon their entrance, and all their resulting powers stem from that single word (e.g. if your core word is \u201cchaos,\u201d imagine the powers you can manifest). Because of that, the fights are really exhilarating, even if the animation isn\u2019t as steadfast with certain fight scenes being better than others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39245\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39245\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39245\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2022\/06\/24\/the-executioner-and-her-way-of-life-review\/executioner-ep3-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?fit=960%2C534&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,534\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Executioner ep3\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?fit=300%2C167&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?fit=696%2C782&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39245 size-full jetpack-lazy-image\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"387\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=300%2C167&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=768%2C427&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=696%2C387&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=755%2C420&amp;ssl=1 755w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=696%2C387&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"39245\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2022\/06\/24\/the-executioner-and-her-way-of-life-review\/executioner-ep3-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?fit=960%2C534&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,534\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Executioner ep3\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?fit=300%2C167&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?fit=696%2C782&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39245 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=696%2C387&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=300%2C167&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=768%2C427&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=696%2C387&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Executioner-ep3-1-e1656116080256.jpg?resize=755%2C420&amp;ssl=1 755w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39245\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ashuna and Momo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;

When they\u2019re not fighting, the walking, talking, and facial expressions often fall flat. This anime falls into the \u201clooking weird while you\u2019re at a distance\u201d trap that many anime have these days. The music didn\u2019t stand out either, and neither did the voice acting. However, I can\u2019t completely fault much of the voice cast since they\u2019re working with rather simple characters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So where exactly does that leave my final opinion? I think as a whole, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Executioner and Her Way of Life <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is an entertaining anime to pass time.
