| This Summer season seems to love dungeons so here's yet another fantasy element involving exploring dungeons and defeating monsters. They got slime in this anime, another commonly seen monster in today's fantasy lineups. Kaito managed to acquire a rare item and seems this is where a major change in life begins. Not sold on the creativity of this show yet and animation looks mediocre at the best. |
 |
| ABEMA early streaming of Episodes 1 & 2. Novelist Kaitou's only lone work, I find it rather funny and fascinating that it's like the author's way of self-insertion into his/her own fantasy world with the MC's name: Kaito Takagi. While Amatsuki's OP is rather average, May'n's ED is...rather good, I'll say? Meet Kaito Takagi, your typical low status Mob adventurer who hunts slimes day and night with his bug sprays, and finding a gold rare servant card by chance in a heavily watched CCTV of a dungeon, he'd hoped to earn at least some funds to have better equipment. The thought of selling such a rare card for a billion yen, in a fictional Japan combined with the fantasy elements. making it seamless between the two states, everyone is aware of what they're doing and targeting for. Kaito's next door neighbour of Haruka Katsuragi...she's quite dense (but at least alert) with Kaito going to the dungeon, much less his rodeo with friends Shinji Ohyama and Hayato Mizutani in helping him keep his rare servant card a secret. The one-billion-yen gamble to summon Sylphy, a Valkyrie-class warrior, turned out to be a loli, which was not what he was expecting to lose his big bucks that way. And despite summoning Sylphy, she still has to consume magic cores to ensure her survival, so Kaito makes a compromise by letting her sense slimes while he makes an even bigger profit killing them to earn quicker. It's all for Kaito's sake since he's influenced by Haruka's father, and now he can go deeper with Sylphy towards the dungeon depths. What secrets will he find there? If anything, this fantasy show I can guarantee is above average, not the best, but decent enough. |

Pretty harmless, the setting is the most interesting aspect,bput the element of mystery into play.  Ah finally, cute and funny Sylphy. The most important thing in this series. |
| This was unexpected. The manga was OK, but the Anime brought more life and silliness into the actual story than the manga did. |
| I can probably count the number of anime with such grotesque character redesigns on one hand, and I've watched a ton of anime. Why did they feel the need to nerf her chest this much? It's certainly not something the staff decided, that's for sure. Are oppai loli not appreciated overseas to such a degree that they felt the need to get rid of them? The story seems similar to Solo Leveling in that monsters and dungeons exist in modern society. Stat screens again which is just lazy. Sylphy is cute. I like Studio Gekkou so I'll continue watching for now.  |
| ok, that ED had some good loli fanservice... i expect the actual show to do the same |
 |
| You know I wasn’t gonna miss Gekkou’s show this season, they’re on my personal VIP list since they’ve made nothing but bangers so far, and this looks like it could be another to add to the list. Very nice OP and ED we got here, I really like both of them, the OP is pretty hype and the ED is a bop, I’ve only heard two other songs by May’n and they’re both awesome, this is another great one and the loli cuteness is great to go with it. And this world seems pretty interesting, it’s like the usual fantasy dungeon exploring but it’s set in modern day, and that made for some funny scenes of Kaito being a badass with bug spray lol, also not sure if it’s a coincidence but the spray cans said “Geekou” on them, cool little detail. And Kaito happens to have a beautiful babe of a childhood friend in Katsuragi, it’s just a shame she doesn’t want him going into the dungeon, it could be because of the danger but there could be more to it than that. And of course I gotta mention the servant loli, Sylphy, the first time I’ve seen that name used outside of Mushoku Tensei just with a slightly different spelling, and boy she is super cute, I’d feed her every core we come across if she wanted it lol. It is a shame to see that her design is nerfed here in the anime, but I have to say I do love her design still, and it looks like she has a bigger form too so there will most likely still be booba. And since this is a double premiere, I have another episode to check out right away, only downside is this show will end sooner than others this season but that’s still a while away, I’m gonna go ahead and enjoy what we got for now lol. |
| 2 lolis for the price of one? goddamn what a deal they nerfed Silphy :( its joever |

| @1WanteD1 someone had mentioned this to me when the anime first got announced all cenorship is dumb and there was no reason to change it the ONLY WAY i can "understand" censorship is to cover something up or remove a scene FOR THE TV VERSION... and show it in the BD, in order to encourage sales, which honestly in this age of streaming, i dont think really works as much as it used to |

| Here I was thinking Sylphy was all cute and funny, But she apparently got de-aged, lol Her card and summon animation... has a more mature appearance, lol.  And there's also that comparison pic in this thread... Anime = Loli LN = middle ground Manga = Booba I wonder if she actually started out like a Loli in LN or manga? (I didn't read)... or is the Loli a anime original? . Anyways... interesting setting, So it's pretty much modern world with modern tech, but still have fantasy creatures and magic-like aspects. (but apparently it only turn fantasy 13 years ago) Also, kinda interesting they call it "servant card"... I guess there's no good word for "summon card" in Japanese... not to mention most people commonly knows it as "servant" due to Fate-series. Plus, she's calling MC, "Master". And you "feed" the summon. I am starting to think they're going with a certain fetish here. . Tho... is this a NTR on the "childhood friend"? Since it looks like she has feelings for the MC, but obviously the MC is going to be getting close to his summon as he spends a lot more time with her... Not to mention... you could potentially summon her at any time "for research purposes". |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Modern day setting with dungeons, other than that everything screams generic. Specially the character designs, so bland. Idk if I can continue this. Atleast Sylphy's cute and HanaKana's voicing her. Why is she a loli though and not that voluptous woman from the card? |

| @amlg Yes, she became a loli after the summon, both manga and LN. I only read the manga, the LN only know the beginning. I'm sad. In the manga her atk is more overpower, she even use her weapon and destruscted the wall and the floor. I really DON'T UNDERSTAND why they lost 7 mnt with he in the school and cut the fithg scene!!!!!! AND about the card in the first chapter of manga it appears, and is more beautiful even be BW. |

| Jebaited from the card |
| Quite a decent series and plot. While I do admit the premise was a cool one, the MC's character is simply mediocre, which makes the series somewhat boring. MC's repeating "1 Billion Yen" is annoying. lol I was also baited. |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| I don’t like how Sylphy looks. Character designs are definitely better in the manga. It’s alright tho, better than The New Gate already (which is a damn shame because I like that manga more…) |

shadewind said: Ive never read the Light Novel for this but have been keeping up with the manga. I can only assume this anime is based on the LN as there was so much interesting stuff in the manga that doesnt exist in this anime. Honestly so far I am not a fan of the Anime at all. It was 19 chapters in the manga before he summoned Lucretia and she came through in full form due to issues. Where is all the development between Sylphy and the MC? Where is the scene from the manga where he visits her world? Is this just all a different order in the LN or otherwise I cant think of the LN as anything but trash and this anime along with it! I’m in the same boat as you. The manga isn’t even close to where this season will likely end, which indicates that so much will be cut out… |
| >summons a winged, armored, ultra powerful loli that calls him master >"wahhh my pool and money and fortune wahhh" blood has his priorities out of order decent first episode, but from the above posted, I do see how they nerfed the shit out of sylphy |
  |
| It wasn't what I was expecting, kind of blah, but I am still interested in seeing what is next. |
| Hmm, it was ok I guess. Sylphys voice is way too high pitched in my opinion. Also kind of wished she was older. Why a tiny girl? |

| I love how the second the big tiddied trading card is revealed... It cuts to the OP. Fantastic choice of editing. 🤣 |
 |
| The most interesting thing about this so far has been the setting. Dungeons appearing in the modern-day world is a cliche in manwha, but you don't see it that often in manga, so I'm interested to see where this goes. It'll most likely be generic fantasy tropes all the way through, but I'm still here for it regardless.  |
| Extremely happy with the production . I have some disagreements about the main VA but it is till solid . Can't wait for more!!!!! |
| this one has some promise, not going to jinx it too hard though. |
| Another generic fantasy show written by someone who clearly lacks the talent to write. Lately there's been too many of these shows that could have been written by an AI. I guess it's lifelong anime fans with no talent for writing, but they do it anyways and the outcome is this incredibly generic trash. And somehow the anime industry still picks up this below average source material and turns it into a show. |
| is this a card captcha anime? no thanks RIP |
 |
| I just wanted to say I really loving the ending illustrations. |
 |
| Good start to this anime. I like underdog characters like Kaito who always try their best. Sylphy should be a good addition to his party. |

| another kodomo doing kodomo things , well it gets 3 shots as usual . so , next episode! |
And they allow TEENAGERS to enter the dungeons? Why would an adult want to enter the dungeon ? only dumb teenager could risk his life for 500 yen minus the equipment needed per slime. Yeah if it was korea the story would expand to everything being a mafia with gigarich buying the card and cristal for cheap to feed their servant, but i doubt it will even explain the world considering the 5/10 score |
