Based on the character designs I felt like I just watched a Rance-like hentai, but someone forgot to put the hentai parts in.

Isekai that pretended not to be one for 5 minutes.

But Akatsuki is undeniably talented in making everything less cringey.

It's honestly hard to believe this came form the same mind that gave us Konosuba... But then again, considering their other non-Konosuba work... Maybe not that hard.

How is it 'hard to believe' everything is on point!

Because Konosuba was funny and this one is a bore-fest, with 2~3 good jokes per episode, at best.
Episode 4 was almost painful to sit through...

This is an Episode 1 discussion, not 4

Episode 1 was also terrible. Had 2 OK jokes.

I feel like they didn't nail the impact of almost all of the jokes that the manga did right.

The pacing felt way too quick. For the first half i was asking out loud to myself "wtf is going on" as i was watching. None of the jokes landed for me as the comedic timing was just not quite there. The animation also felt a little bit off in some spots.

All in all this feels very unpolished. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt for now due to this being from the author of Konosuba but this feels like a 5 atm.

This anime is basically a good knockoff of Konosuba however it is made by the same creator who made Konosuba and you can tell the differences and similarities between them.

The way they made fun of premise at the beginning really reminded me of Konosuba which makes sense considering who the author is.

The password joke felt dumb but I loved the aftermath of it. I feel a little bad for Snow for getting demoted so quickly.

At first impression, I thought it would be like arifureta or gosick vibes. But this is Konosuba with a different party

Yes I'm going to see it xD
It's funny and also comes from the same author of Konosuba (which there are also references xd) so let's see how it will be.

It slipped my mind this was gettin' an adaption. Not gonna front, I remember seeing the first volume of the light novel in my local bookstore and Snow's milk tanks design really caught my eye.

Anyway, speaking of her, golly she got demoted and it's just the first episode. Nice Konosuba reference with the "Explosion!" Too bad Megumin isn't here though. A bunch of silly faces that can be used for reactions and the like are abundant that's for sure

Had the same feeling. Feels like a bad ripoff of Konosuba, this is even worse as the author is the same. Did he run out of ideas?
ik it's a bit late to reply, but combatants was made before konosuba, so that explains why it's similar but not as funny, author had less experience

this is kinda lame, but there were a few funny parts (and some jokes that weren't funny at all)

not sure i'll be able to watch the whole season without dropping it, but for now i'll keep going. 6/10 to start

Saw a couple of clips of this and thought meh but then I heard it from the same guy who made KonoSuba. So I though why not give it a chance and so far not great. Not enough to make go drop but it needs to pick things up.

Already living up to my expectation of peak comedy considering this is from the same creator as Konosuba. I especially like the fact that Agent six and Alice are evil making certain scenarios possible.

How did the author of KonoSuba who wrote Kazuma as an MC, wrote Agent Six as one here?Kazuma's a fun character even when KonoSuba's average, meanwhile Agent Six here was unbearable in this first episode rewatch. Watching it with a mate hasn't changed anything lol. It's night and day stuff here. Pacing was abysmal too on top of all the forced, unfunny humor and bad voice acting.

Funny first episode, also a lot of good-looking girls. It's easy to see the similarities to KonoSuba, even though it's not quite on that level. Hoping for some Snow-fanservice in future episodes.

Looks like it’s gonna be good 5/10 anime with some hard jokes. Could be 6/10 if the MC wasn’t a bumbling horny fool. The dub is hilarious, and I love that Monica Rial is doing Alice. Agent six VA sounds like Ryan Reynolds though.
