| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Welp, typical protagonist gets sent to another world after a tragic incident. (bus accident) That fantasy world looks like something you'd find out of a JRPG game. Rio actually seems like a tough guy living by himself. It felt like following his adventures shows the reality and cruelty of that world. Rio seems like a guy with a good heart as he also saved a girl that was being held captive. This show actually turned out to be slightly darker than I had anticipated. |
 |
| The 2nd Isekai show of the season, and for the main character like Haruto Amakawa, fuse every Isekai death reincarnation you know with the Mushoku Tensei reincarnation formula, and you get one body, two personalities: Rio, a lonewolf orphan who's fighting to survive another day in the slums and being an immigrant. Turns out he also can use magic by some unknown means, and that he learns quick to fend off an assailant. The problems don't stop there: Getting into problems one after another that Rio can only comprehend situations he knows best, but all he got was allegations without trial for a kidnapping of royalty that he didn't commit. A good guy that got roped into some abhorring royalty torture treatment, and that put a detest to his face. All Rio got that out of the deal, is the enlistment in the Beltram Kingdom in the Royal Academy from Celia for saving the abducted 2nd Princess Flora. A fantasy generic Isekai all the way through, will have to see more of what this could turn out to be. Hopefully it's not just a dark, revenge story for that sense, or otherwise it seems brain-dead to me that doesn't care much about it's obscenely fast pacing. |

| Why is he called Haru? Seeing that it's a Harem I can only think of Osamake .-. Now I understand why people hate Isekais.... This beginning couldn't get any more boring and predictable. I just hope they shut me up with some turn of events or something |
Beginnings are always been the hardest part to go though when it comes to isekai for me regardless the quality of the show overall lol |
| Yup... another generic Isekai. Really predictable and very typical. Damn... I wish we had some good Isekai's for fuck sake. But instead, we got this. Not saying it'll be really bad cuz that could change in a single episode but for now man this is your average generic Isekai. I hope they turn things up a bit to make it more interesting. Rio seems like a nice guy but once again, there's nothing that differs him from other Isekai protagonists, for now. We'll see how that goes. Hoping for some cool in the future episodes. It's a bit darker than usual tho which can be really intriguing in the upcoming episodes. |
 |
| Train-kun does it again 🤣 Quite a generic isekai anime and there were nothing much that happens in the first episode. Except there is someone that really wants to kill the royal family members. Rio's life was harsh but he is a good guy anyway. He even wants to learn royal etiquette. Yeaaah!!!!! Agupon's ED. 🤩 |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| one of the most brutal train-kun thus far |
  |
| I have a new appreciation for all the other 1st episodes that aired so far in Summer after enduring this. |
| The manga I read about it was better even though it was average, too bad they removed the prostitute girl that cared about him as the beginning, the murders just feel very random, it's also less edgy for the torture part I expected it to be more bloody (xD), and now it's already the "redemption" part where he left the slum life... well maybe it will be more interesting later because the events are better but so far it's quite bad, and the animation doesn't save it at all, that's a pity. |
 |
| Yawn... Yet another generic isekai. |
 |
| Nice Was waiting for this from many months I like generic anime with powerful Protag and harem So I'm looking forward to this... |
| . |
| Wow this sure is an isekai that exists |
| I guess the only real different thing about this premise was the fact that he was somehow merged with a real person in a different world instead of either being transported as he was or being born with memories. Honestly, I thought it was okay until the point where he brings the princess back to the guard and the others looking for her. Everything from that point felt incredibly contrived and the writing was very poor. It's clear MC made the connection that the girl he found was kidnapped and also the one the group he met before was looking at, yet when asked to explain the situation he consistently says "She asked me to". Like what kind of an explanation is that? He's just contributing to the misunderstanding. Is it really that weird to mention that you found her kidnapped and brought her back here and also mention that he can lead them right to the scene of the crime? At least, he eventually mentions that he rescued her and I assume he's the one who leads them to crime. Of course, we would have to see him treated like a criminal even though he clearly helped them. I mean, if he was really a part of the kidnapping plan, would he really bring her back? I'm just saying, the scenario feels very contrived just so the MC could be X and Y characters important to the story. I'll give it a few more episodes and the benefit of the doubt. |

| Imagine starting the anime with a childhood friend who has no chance to win. Did that childhood friend become the god? That's the feeling I got from the ED. Train-kun striked before even a minute passed lol it felt weird. I didn't like the first episode, it was pretty bad. The animation wasn't anything special, neither was the music. The story is very generic so far, character designes weren't that interesting either. Some of them were still cute though. |

 |
| Please somebody tell me it's a fkin joke... So far we have: - Matsuoka harem - Round Isekai city - Mary Sue OP for no reason protagonist - Literally fkin Kirito:  It can't get more LN adaptation than that. I already know it has no potential whatsoeverto transcend beyond trash level, yet it still might be a fun ride. |
 |
| Typical isekai MC? YES! Harem? YES! Fast pacing? YES! Overpowered? YES! The second of the isekai, Bus-kun gets hit by Train-kun. Haruto, gets a body in the isekai world. Turns out he has a TON of magic power and in just a second he mastered and defeated an enemy with his magic powers xD And yeah, very predictable.. he gets on good terms with the princess.. joins the royal academy.. becomes an overpowered character.. creates a harem and saves the world! xD Anyway this might be a typical isekai anime, I still kinda enjoyed it. The visual effects were bad but cool. Opening and ending are both pretty chill and animation is decent I guess. Rio's VA (when he's mature) is amazing. Can't wait to hear him! |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Damn train-kun This is reminding me of Shichisei no Subaru. Probably because that one was more on the dramatic side as well. And more importantly, unlike Realist Hero, this seems watchable. Gonna give it a few more episodes. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Even if it fits usual setting. Felt the first episode was pretty good honestly. |
| I really can't tell if the main character is Rio or Haruto, but the girls are top tier waifus :D |
 |
| Wow I fell for whoever said "he's not just OP cuz he got isekai'ed, he worked for it!", he's a malnourished 10 year old but because some sort of spirit told him to concentrate he was able to use magic for the first time to beat some sorf of assassin that was also using magic, yup not OP just 'cuz. Also he later turns into a discount kirito that happens to also be part saiyan. |

| Being a light novel fan, i've heard about this series quite a few time. Will stick to it. As I like to finish an anime. Unless it becomes super boring. Let's hope it won't. |
 |
spacetimeAnime said: Which is first one? Assuming they weren't counting Bakarina season 2, they probably mean Realist Hero. |
| Suicide bus-kun meets speedy train-kun. Truck-kun still hungry this season! |
| Is it bad that my favorite part was how he got isekai'd? Like, damn, truck-kun just isn't cutting it anymore. We need train-senpai to come along and mangle the MC and a bus full of people into a pretzel, just so we can isekai all of them, too. Overall, nothing too great, nothing too terrible. Time will tell how it'll fare. I've probably binged worse animes, but I don't know if it'll hold my attention enough to watch it on a week to week basis. |
| They sure know how to make people despise roaylty. |

So far though,except for the exclusion of some bits from the LN,its not a bad start. Good OP/ED so thats a point in its favour. |

geptor said: Nah,the MMO is an Orbital Ion cannon :)
The MMORPG is a giant super strong space monkey that settles into orbit and promptly drowns the entire surface in monkey pee and monkey manure,thereby preventing a Third Coming and causing an intergalactic war over its remains when Asteroid-kun's onii-chan turns up and turns the monkey into paste! All we'd need then is Bench-kun to turn up,and then the universal rom-com would be royally screwed :) Sorry,overly active imagination went monkeynuts there a little :D Though it might make an interesting anime ;D |

I'm just saying, the scenario feels very contrived just so the MC could be X and Y characters important to the story. I'll give it a few more episodes and the benefit of the doubt. The way I see it, the knight did not bring him to the castle because she thinks he's the kidnapper. It was more like she wanted explanations and testimony since it was fact that he was with the abducted princess. They needed information from him and she also said at first to treat him courteously, but the knight in charge of the princess's escort messed up and was trying to make up by forcing Rio to make false confession so he could gain merit by arresting the culprit. Byniavo said: I really can't tell if the main character is Rio or Haruto, but the girls are top tier waifus :D Well, they're basically merged and thus the two of them are the MC, although Rio's probably got a slight more dominant personality and he also decided to live as Rio instead of Haruto.

There's several things where you're wrong but I wouldn't point out since it'll be spoilers. Well try to watch the first 3-5 episodes. Also, he's very strong and capable just like you said but not that amazing to the point that no one (incluidng countries or the world) could oppose him (at most he would be like Kirito level).

Also he later turns into a discount kirito that happens to also be part saiyan. Hmm, I don' t know how should I explain this but in the LN, it was stated more clearly that what he's using isn't "magic" but a far more advance ability that is currently unknown (also remember that got much much more magic power than the assassin). Also, he didn't focus so he could use the "magic" but it was so the pink hair girl could share her memories with him and guided his body directly so he could use it right away. Ofc, this doesn't mean he mastered it yet. |
