Nice first episode. The episode was pretty calmful and comfy.
With level 1,100, no wonder why Cayna is very very strong.
The ED was also great. It could be one of my favorite ED from this season.

Hell yes... first Isekai for the new season. We eating well as always. LOL. The main character, Cayna is pretty cute and of course, she's a high elf. And, she's very strong as well, her stats speak for herself.

Well, Leadale has changed quite a lot from what Cayna remembers and she's probably stuck in the game because of that power outage. The OP and ED are both good. This looks like one of those comfy shows that air every season.

TRUE's OP and Azusa Tadokoro's ED are both such a treat, it's so good. And this is yet another Syosetu title that existed long before the likes of Mushoku Tensei, the first of Winter 2022.

This ain't so much of an Isekai reincarnation story, but the setting is as such that's too similar to SAO, with the all-too-familiar OP MC Cayna not knowing how does the world of the VRMMORPG Leadale works, except that the MC is trapped inside the game, and have no way of logging out since her original body as Keina Kagami is rendered dead on life support that's way to similar to...you get the idea.

This is pretty much a slice-of-life series of seeing how much Cayna can mess up in her understanding, someone who's the high elf war criminal "Silver Ring Witch" after 200 years, forgetting all that's happened thus far with the world moving on without her. Also, this is a world where things can be bought with real money through its own Foster System, kinda like a gacha game, and also families. Here's to more adventures.

Erm, rushing through the source material ain't a good thing, and the recently translated manga this premiere episode covered almost a volume's worth of content...just slow down please. But otherwise, just sit back and relax in this fantasy ride that's similar to Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear and Bofuri. A series that's not great, but not bad either, just fine.

Okay this is the first anime that airing in this season, I don't really like the op and the animation style of the op so maybe I'll skip the op for the next eps. It started with a blonde haired girl waking up, Cayna maybe. For the initial scene, there is nothing special, only the scene of waking up then meeting the loli maid, and having breakfast. Slightly surprising with Heroine's stats. Has a level of 1100, HP 69745 and MP 14086, that Was too op for VR isekai, lol... But yeah, not bad either with Heroine op. Hold on sec is she 317 YO, huh? Somehow I feel this Leadale is similar to slime300.

Level 1100 doesn't seem like just writing, the robber was successfully chased away even though Cayna was asleep, what an amazing pet, lol. Oioioi, Was that just teleportation magic? Getting to the top floor of the Luna tower without having to climb the stairs isn't that a cheat, lol. Turns out Cayna is the pick of the Luna tower, despite that there's a weird wall can talking, lol. That wall are Cayna servant. Slightly surprised when Cayna had a child, It turned out not to be a child but an npc made by Cayna.

After going to the tower, Cayna is back there. Cayna meets an adventurer, it seems that the adventurer was attacked by a bear but thankfully Cayna came on time and saved him, defeating a bear with just one hit, that's an op skill, lol. She's not ojou-chan, she was Cayna :") peaceful ending, party to close the first episode, oyasumi Cayna~

Really like the ED

I remember reading the first chapter of the first volume a few weeks back and found it to be really bland and quickly stopped before going further, and decided to just wait for the anime.

And after watching this episode, yeah can confirm it's even blander than I expected. And rushed too without the benefit of visual storytelling to help out. It feels... too safe and underwhelming of a premiere for my liking and feels more like a middle of the show kind of episode than the very first one for some reason. Pacing was a bit fast through the content which isn't the worst thing imaginable since the bit of the chapter I read felt really, really slow. But that leads to missing monologues too and the story moving awkwardly. Even the CG backgrounds at times looked off, visually not great overall. Cayna herself isn't that charming of an MC either one episode in, feels forgettable there too.

It's probably going to be a relaxing kind of isekai or something, but I'm more bored than relaxed with this premiere. I wanted to find some more positive elements to counteract the negative feelings I had for this episode but not much was there barring the voice acting to praise here and the ED being solid.

The start of the new season. By Maho Films, And the one who maked such a horrendous adaptation of 100-man no Ichi! Adapting one of the First Isekai's with a Female Protagonist. We shall see.

Not gonna lie it feels rushed, but I guess this will be just something like Bofuri, which is fine. The ED sounds pretty good tho.

Classy RPG themes.

Cayna is cute and I find her likable, at least so far from this episode. World setting looks like something that came right out of any JRPG game. I like how she's also aware of the RPG elemetns an even uses some terms associated with video games.

The animation looks solid imo, hope it doesn't drop in quality.

So I'm gonna be decent.
They gonna follow an old idea. Not very bad.
The plot is generic. I got no problem.
But why do you mess the waifu in certain frames? The character looks very different than. Not the poker and other impression faces.

Hope it doesn't happens often.

Well, as far as this episode is concerned I really loved it. It was fun to watch. And the animation was also fine. And Cayna was cute. So she is actually dead? I mean her consciousness remained in that game but she can't go back to the World she used to live in?

btw the art style fit just like how the Ln / manga depicted, because its funny cartoony fun slice of life very active girl cayna. yeah cayna is very expressive in LN.

Really, really boring isekai premise. Even if it's meant to a more laid-back, low stakes slice of life anime, it has none of the characterization or charm or hooks to really make for much.
Aside from having a female mc, it's essentially an inferior duplicate of practically any RPG-inspired isekai premise one can think of, along with all the bland tropes that come with the genre.

Oh yea, the art fucking sucks. It REALLY fucking sucks.

Anime by Maho Film. I've seemingly seen all they've been attached to, atleast that's listed on Mal, so I should enjoy this I hope.

Cayna has a cute avatar picture. I'm wondering if this'll be as enjoyable as Bofuri is.

Her chibi form is funny.

It's alright so far. Glad that the artstyle is not really crappy and overall animation is fine. It was slightly boring sometimes but it had some good moments. The voice actors are stacked so might just watch to hear Gintoki again :D
Anyway, great ED.

Honestly very enjoyable first episode, and mad eme curious on what else it has to offer. Sure, isekais are super easy to understand and do. But with this one, it does provide interest on what else her 'avatar' has been doing, and how she combats it all.

So... she actually died but her mind/conscience stayed in the game, right?

Ahh, Maho Film, the studio that brought us 100-Man. Can't say I expected much from this show after recalling Maho Film doing it. At least they put more effort into this shows first ep than 100-Man as a whole.

Cayna has taken waking up in the games universe real smoothly. I guess being in hospital would have that effect on people. From her stats alone, I'd assume she has plenty of tricks up her sleeve.

What I want to know is, did she get that tower guardian as a gift or reward from the devs, or does every player have one?

I have a son too of whom I forget exists. I believe he'd be about 200 years old now. Therefore, Cayna did nothing wrong...

Initial thoughts: Maho Film, why, oh why!!!

The setting and "story" seem interesting. Characyers not so much. Art is very meh. Usually world introduction is the strongest point of isekai stories, but I hope it stays at least somewhat entertaining.

be to long to go over every little thing i hated abt this episode, but, how she knew to get into the inventory without knowing she was in game and how they introduced the world to us annoyed me, how the hospital just ran outa power long enough for her to die is dumb, tbf every single thing from character interactions to her talking about whats going on around her and just the MC herself annoyed me.

A decent start if I am honest, could be much better, if it wasn't Maho Film behind the show.

So a power outage in the hospital caused her body to die, but stayed conscious in the game.. I think that is the most interesting part of the Anime, hope they will dive deeper onto it. Biggest complaint is definitely the pacing, it felt so quick.

Let's see if this will actually be with other players or more in the sense of how Overlord is done, when she's the only player surrounded by only NPC's.
