Tomoatsu Naoe leads an ordinary life working as a massage therapist, but this changes when he encounters a peculiar client named Erufuda. During her visit, Naoe discovers her secret: she is actually an elf! After leaving her world, Erufuda fell in love with junk food and now cannot return home because of her weight gain.
Naoe decides to help the elf with dieting so that she can eventually go back to her world. Although Erufuda puts in the work and reaches her goal, it does not take long for Naoe to stumble upon her again—and she has regained the lost pounds. As Naoe continues to give her advice, the two begin encountering other people from another world, all with the same desire to lose weight.

This anime took a standard anime idea "find all the reasons for the cast to take their clothes off" and really made it entertaining and funny. The characters were endearing and at times absurd. They also managed to ride the line of lovable aholes too. I wasn't sure what kind of humor I'd encounter when I started watching it since frequently things with plus sized in the title can nose dive into just straight up bullying to audience, but this anime didn't come off like that to me. It came off more like the creator realized that he could draw all the big boobs hewanted if he just made the ladies big too, and I appreciated that.
If you're looking for a silly, flirty, lulzy time then this anime is for you. If you want something with a little more substance and less focus on exercise and diet, then you might want to look elsewhere.

To be thick is to live. Are you a person who enjoys thick women, because if you are then you will find enjoyment in this anime. The story. find a cute fantasy woman who has become choppy, and now human will help her. The character design is very nice, pretty, sexy, but sadly there are some really cheap parts where they look bad, I think the dancing scene in the intro always takes me out of this world of existence. Enjoyed this show, I read the manga and fought it looked sexy. anime looks a bit cheaper but still in good fun.

I really wanted to like this anime. I love the source material, as well as the characters. But this anime is what a lot of us in this scene expected: low-budget drivel that doesn't really do the source justice. I'm glad that it has an adaptation to begin with, but I'd be lying if I was totally satisfied. The animation is, let's face it: quite poor, but strangely enough, I feel it is at its worst in the OP and ED. The actual show is serviceable, despite wonky faces now and then. I will say that it is extremely faithful to the source, though. Whatyou see is what you get, but that in addition to its quality means that this adaptation really doesn't bring anything new to the table.
I've read the original manga (all 8+2 currently available in English!), and I follow the author's art. I recognize that the art is... well, let's say niche. My kind of niche, though, so I obviously enjoyed that part of it.
I'm here for that sweet sweet WG, that jiggle, those thighs and especially those tummies, big or just chubby. If you're also here for that, then just go watch it already. If you're not... well, I'll say that this is still extremely funny, but bad official subs do hold it back. If there are fansubs, I'm sure they're better, but in typical HIDIVE fashion, they've played them way, way too loose. My Japanese probably doesn't even qualify as "beginner level", but even I can tell these subs just aren't accurate. It's not 2005, guys! We know things about Japanese culture! You don't need to "dumb it down" for us! (ex. E11, uses "valley girl" instead of "gyaru")
TL;DR: If this is your kind of anime, you probably have already watched it all the way through. The rest of you may not be as impressed-- but I can recommend the manga any day of the week.

not sure about the show its like watching a bad porn but like some aspects like their training detail stuff the methods the protagonist uses in progress of weight reduction but its like watching ecchi stuff without getting a bonner.The show has a unique take but fails to deliver like manga some suggested,not super sure about the future of this anime but hopes are high if it gets a second season. Majority believe the characters require more development and details completely lacked on that stuff,the art system is okay but can do more justice to the characters. If you have not read manga maybe youwill enjoy a bit

This anime is very transparent with what it is and who it appeals to, if ya like seeing naked chubby girls then you are likely going to enjoy Plus Size Elf. I am one of those people who likes the squishy girlies, so I enjoyed my time with this anime! Its nice to see a series like this that appeals to an almost never explored demographic. But outside of this niche that the anime was obviously made to appeal to, there is not all that much reason for a general audience to watch this. If I'm being more objective, wouldn't call Plus Size Elf ahorribly bad anime by any means but I also wouldn't call it particularly good either. The main structure of the show works well enough. Naoe, a massage therapist, meets various monster girls from another world who happen to have weight issues and he helps them lose that weight (until they inevitably gain it back). Its a fun setup that creates a nice space to play around with exercising different parts of your body and leads to some mildly entertaining banter as well as the expected ecchi of seeing the girls work out. There is also a surprising amount of genuinely useful workout tips that you could apply in real life which is cool (I will not remember any of them xP). The main problem is that once the monster girls of the week's introductions haven happened, they all kinda get thrown to the side and are rarely seen. There are so many girls in this show and it feels like only three ever get substantial attention. ;/ The other girls are all pretty one note and forgettable. They only ever show up for a little bit in the background, never really doing anything outside of their introduction. But the girls we actually get focus on can be pretty entertaining and are pretty likeable for what they are
Another thing about this anime that you will instantly notice is the animation quality. Its pretty okay to subpar in every episode, which I'm honestly not surprised by. I don't imagine an adaptation like this would get much funding sadly. ;c Because of that, much of the animation can be jarring and come off as weirdly uncanny and creepy, like the dance in the OP. Other times the animation just feels kinda empty and utilitarian. Outside of the animation, the visual style is reminiscent of the manga's and sometimes does a surprisingly good job capturing the spirit of the original manga, but more often than not the art lacks that soft feel of line work and a general sense of cohesion the manga had that made it so initially appealing. A nice bit is that the colors in this anime are nice and vibrant which fits the vibe of this very non serious ecchi comedy show well!
As an anime who's main appeal to me and presumably most viewers is the big boobies and big tummy jiggling fan service nonsense, how does the ecchi hold up? It's pretty mediocre unfortunately. There are lotsa scenes of the girls bursting out of their clothes or through some contrived nonsense their shirts tear right at the boob which at a surface level would be sexy right? Supporting this is the full uncensored nudity in this anime, which is awesome, but the anime's more slice of lifey comedy tone doesn't make it feel all that sexy. The monster girls generally don't seem to care about being seen naked which is fine, but it ends up making the anime not feel particularly horny outside of the shallow fact that they are often naked. I don't mind the ecchi not being amazing since I did genuinely enjoy the SoL bits of this anime. That being said, it is nice having some chubby girl fan service for once, its a such a rare thing to see in anime and I'm elated this anime supplies. Its something I've been wishing for forever
Overall, Plus Sized Elf is not worth a watch for the average viewer. But if you enjoy trashy ecchi, bigger girls, or both I think there is definite value here! This is not a complex anime, and the production quality is pretty poor, I wish it was better produced but I found myself enjoying it for what it was. Even outside of my surface level liking of chubby girls, the low stress, dumb fun comedy of this show was enjoyable enough for me to give at least a 5. That being said, my liking fat bitches absolutely made me enjoy this anime more so I'm giving it a 6 xD

You get about what you expect. A comedy about girls from fantasy world isekaing into our world and becoming chubby because of our unhealthy food. The show is a pretty mixed bag in terms of comedy and probably the worst I've seen in regards to animation (obviously low budget with some of it being laughably bad). If you like chubby girls, you'll probably like this show. If not, there is a chance you'll still like it, but it'll more than likely be a pass. Regarding comedy, for every hit of a joke, there is a joke that misses or is just too predictable. Ithink there was one or two that made me laugh, and a few that had me smiling, but the rest were just alright. Honestly it was the animation and off-model visuals that had me laughing more than the intended comedy (occasional lazy eyed faces or questionable animations). But with all that said, as a Certified Chubby Chaser™ and just going into the show knowing full well what it would be, I had a generally good time. I kept teetering on giving a 6 or 7, but kept it at 7 in the end due to the later episodes being consistently enjoyable.

Would heavily suggest reading the manga. The anime was a long time coming, for what it is it doesn't do the series justice. Animation: it gets really bad. It's on the nose with following the manga, a bit too on the nose with how stiff shots can get. Panels where you expect it to be animated a certain way are completely still. The characters are off model a lot. The inconsistencies are really jarring, especially on Dark Elf. She's supposed to be flat chested but her cup size is ever changing with each episode. I had mixed feelings on a few voices for the characters, especiallyfor Satyr. I was not expecting her voice to be that deep. Wished it was higher. Same with Dragon. The rest sound good.
The story is simple enough as this is mainly ecchi, but they messed up the order of the chapters with one episode.
I still watched this all the way through as a cope (lol) from waiting so long, got slight enjoyment from seeing these characters (rarely) come to life. Seeing this honestly made me feel bad for Synedoche, he already had to deal with switching publishers and his anime adaptation is mediocre, he can't catch a break.

The term "degenerate" gets bandied about quite a bit, to the point that it's more a term of endearment than abuse. But every now and then you hit a show that gives the term a slightly uneasy resonance. I imagine the history of waifus has gone something like this: * Come and watch our show, we've got pretty girls! * Oh, is that getting dull? Here, we'll throw in some catgirls! Weren't expecting that eh? * Oh, the catgirls are normie-tier now? How about... monster girls! * Okay, you've seen monster girls, but... not *fat* ones, yeah? Here you go! And on it goes. One can only imagine what the nextevolution will be. Whatever it is though... I'm here for it. We're on this ride together, gentlemen.
People have described this show as a sort of Walmart Monster Musume, and they're not entirely wrong. It's a show about cute chubby metahuman girls doing cute things, and sometimes cutely attempting to exercise. It's as ridiculous as it sounds, and it's a joy to watch.
The story, such as it is, is predictable and limited in scope. Given that the episodes are short (half-length), this is unsurprising, but the show is fun enough that you likely won't mind. I found the girls charming and the comedy funny, but you'll have to watch an episode to see if it's your thing or not.
The visuals are clearly done on a limited budget, but what they lack in resources, they make up for in enthusiasm. (Do yourself a favor and track down an uncensored version.) The sound is great, and the ED slaps.
I really enjoyed this show, it's a solid trash anime that satisfyingly delivers on its unique premise. It's a series of shorts, so by all means, give it a few minutes to see if it's your jam.

I only watched this mostly as a joke and going off of the hype of elf season (Frieren and Marcille) and I guess I don't regret watching but its a total waste of time. If you are in to fat woman than maybe you'll find some sort of enjoyment from this lol but that's just not my cup of tea so I wasn't expecting to like this. Even despite that though the show is pretty bad, animation is very low quality, the fan service is just random as hell and the story is mostly nonexistent. I'm happy the episodes were only 12 min long becauseI wouldn't have been able to get through a full length episode every week. Some people try to add points for its little bit of fitness knowledge that it tries to lay on but its all such basic information that none of it is actually helpful if that's something you want to argue in favor of.
