Shinmai Ossan Boukensha, Saikyou Party ni Shinu hodo Kitaerarete Muteki ni Naru.

Determined to pursue his glorious childhood dreams, 30-year-old Rick Gladiatol, a modest clerk in the adventurers' guild, is offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity after he fatefully encounters the dark elf Reanette Elfelt. Reanette happens to be an elite adventurer of the legendary party Orichalcum Fist, whose members welcome Rick under the condition that he follow a Spartan training.

Two years later, Rick is finally ready to take the E-Rank exam officially qualifying him as an adventurer. However, raw magical power can only be developed until one turns 20. As such, Rick faces the general hostility of fellow participants and examiners alike, leaving him no choice but to show the world that his hellish training has turned him into an invincible warrior.

I just finished watching this anime, and I absolutely loved it! I got hooked right from the first episode and couldn’t stop until I’d binged the entire season in one go. The animation was solid, and the character designs stood out, especially the main guy as an older, unlikely hero—it felt fresh and unique. The balance of humor and action was spot-on, keeping things entertaining without ever feeling over-the-top. The intense training scenes were brutal but made his growth feel so satisfying. The powerful party was hilarious and had great dynamics with the protagonist. I’d LOVE to see a season 2 because I've grown attached ... to the characters and this story has so much potential to keep going!

Mixed Feelings

Despite this show's greatest efforts is to be as generic and uninteresting as possible, I was still able to get a bit of enjoyment out of it. The anime follows the protagonist Rick who is trying to become an adventurer in his early thirties. People tell him he's too old, but he doesn't give up.

As someone also in their early thirties, the theme resonated with me. Often I can feel that I missed out on a lot of things when I was younger, but that's the wrong mindset. It's never too late to start out something new, and improve yourself. Despite the personal theme, the ... show is quite generic. Despite him starting out at an older age, he's already stronger than everyone else, as you can infer from the title. So we got the overpowered MC who ploys through all the doubters, as you expect from this type of show. It's about as entertaining as it usually is, but this show doesn't give much else.

The characters are boring, and mostly just archetypes. You have an immature little girl who is OP, and some woman who dresses and actls like a maid for some reason. I did like the Orc though. You've also got a few of the snobby nobles, who are basically cartoon villains'. They try to redeem one later, but it didn't feel natural to me, and I felt they just wanted to give her more screen time since she was a woman for fanservice reasons.

Speaking of fanservice, it's kinda out of place and embarrassing here. Due to the theme I thought this may try to be a more mature show, but they've got a handful of immature boob jokes, and it makes me wonder why I'm even watching this. It's not as bad, outside of the character designs and the handful of jokes, but it just feels so out of place.

Anyway, I did get through it, and I enjoyed it well enough despite all it's shortcomings. The theme was nice, and if there was a second season I may at least check it out. If you're looking for something exciting/new then keep looking I guess.

Preliminary (3/12 eps)

If you appreciate your time, PLEASE DO NOT WATCH this anime UNLESS if you have nothing to do with your life GO FIND ANOTHER INTERESTING ANIME because this wasn't that.
Hard to believe average rate for this show is over than 5 , ALL THESE IISEKAIS MAGIC-ESQUE ADVENTURE-ESQUE AND THESE FOLKS ARE RATED THIS AS ANOTHER GOOD ANIME??? NO IT IS NOT, this community has truly lost it can't believe people actually recommended this.

GOODNESS ! I wouldn't even bother to write a review or Yaps if the anime itself were tagged as: Comedy , apparently this is not even a comedy genre anime also reviewing ain't ... my tea either~ even if it is a comedy, their jokes are still stank cold frozen shit!


This is another typical Fantasy Adventurous anime where the MC is crazily overly superpowered living monastic life with the very best legendary teachers in that very universe and train train train rigorously strictly with all those Masters every single day , we already now next result is and YES OUR MC IS SUPER JACKED, SUPER-OPPED AND BUFF but somehow in the society where Ability is important and there's literally an Magic/Adventure Guild institution in this very anime universe that have all the facilities and whole complete organization , board members but somehow THEY ALL STILL MISS our MC capability and strength??Oh no! that one scene where our MC had to demonstrates his FULL power in order to pass Magic/Adventure school test??? HE DID IT IN FRONT OF FACULTY MEMBERS AND WHOLE CLASS!!! AND BULL F****** SHIT I KID YOU NOT, they pretty much = FAILED HIM=by put him in lowest rank class despite HE PASSED THE EXAMINATION BY FLYING BRIGHT COLORS SINGED EVERYBODY ELSE EYES IN THE EXAM HALL.
This is another one of those lazy writing! , (Again???) folks of the institution absolutely look at our MC very skittish/awkward/unpleasant/side-eye due of our MC because he little bit old (30 years old) to be in Adventure and Magical-ish academy, WHAT??? . . .the anime itself pretty much self explanatory they need somebody dependable in order to become great Magician/Adventurer that's why the School/Academy existed in first place , why age matter??? why y'all accepted his enrollment in school in very first place???

Oh Yeah, of course! our MC came along with a girl companion and guess what? IT'S ANOTHER CUTESY MUTESY VOLUPTUOS CHEST TEENAGER (again?) IN MAID SUIT! and again She a girl kinda didn't talk much She have feeling toward our MC but not want to actually confess it at first since our MC is YADA YADA YADA a dumb, slow , reserve , can't read the room, loud, submissive often succumbing to unnecessary bullying torment shitty treatment YES!!! our MC is exactly THAT, another lazy writing !

*Side/Supportive characters? most of them are stiff , even the way they animate them ,voice acting, dialogues too ! and they are not much to offer for whatever storyline and build up to our MC .
The Males are either behave superbly exploitative , Obnoxious, Narcissistic , louder than our MC, low tier comic relief , Pervy , Yamcha Narrator talk too much Yappology and flashback Yapper no Jutsu
The Females? Annoyance, Oblivious and Mostly are Typical Poyon-poyon Oppai dekai teenager moe-moe big chested~ (Why are we still doing this? this is no longer 2006-2012 God Sake!) and you all know where they goes with these big boobas females in this type of anime.*

Seriously, F that guy who seriously recommended me day and night because YUo WiLl NoT Be DiSsApPoiNtEd...ThIs AnImU iS GuuD

BULLSHIT.
