The fight scenes I think are really holding this anime back. Say what you will about kenja in terms of the cheese comedy/ character interactions. Not everyone's cup of tea. But they turned up the heat for the magic and fights.


But I'm not talking about Kenja....?

It's funny how he tried to brush off criticisms that matter less about Kenja when the series is riddled with nonsensical development. But I can agree on one thing and perhaps even expand on it a bit more. Not only did the animation falls on its face, Isekai Cheat cuts corners when it comes to infodump. For instance, it would have the characters verbally describe everything with little to no graphic.

The power stats, the chick's food, and the map. Nothing on screen was interesting when the characters talked about these things because it showed either nothing or just one eighth of what they were talking about. I could hardly make out what that goddammned map was while the pair were describing relative locations of places because the screen focused only on a small section of it at a time. What kind of an isekai title that's stingy on showing its own world to viewers.

They should do drama CDs instead if they are just going to talk their way through the season without using visuals to their advantage.

There are shows I would watch even if the plot and characters are bad since the show is at least enjoyable to watch despite how bad it is. Kenja no Mago, Smartphone, Death March, you can name it. This is literally the first time in a while where I felt boredom and it might be worse than all the average isekais I have listed if this trend keeps going each episode.

The pacing is so different from any other Isekai, pretty cool.


In most cases, the MAL Average Scores don't mean anything, here is a question: were the works made before 2000 all shit?
Why are they so damn scarce in the Top 50? Think about how MAL is quite literally a filtered amount of the Anime fanbase.

Here's a timeline of the Top 15 in which you can check that, almost always, the scores are affected by the freshness, popularity and other factors that have nothing to do with quality.

They departed very heavily from the manga. Which is a shame cause that one is actually interesting... the adaptation here is so.. oh so much worse. Not to say horrible. I will keep watching but I am disappointed so far

I'm going to have to disagree with everyone. This episode established a ton of new plot and has fired up the arc where I think this series will shine. There was some decent action, so I wouldn't call it a boring episode.

The one thing I'm annoyed with is how every episode jumps forward a significant amount of time. I understand the reasoning and I think I can overlook it once the story really picks up.
Awoo :3

Kinda feels boring there isn't anything particularly bad but neither anything good, kind of dull

They definitely could have improved the scene where Taichi punched the ogre would have made it more enjoyable
