Such a weird but interesting concept, and that was actually fun and wholesome. I'll definitely stick around. More journey has to come.

Many years ago I remember discussing the state of anime, specifically the isekai genre with a couple of my weeb friends in an anime club I joined in uni… We talked about how wack it’s become, specifically the long a$$ titles, as well as isekai being too weird lol, anyways this was one novel that was brought up, and for it to have an anime now, somehow feels nostalgic and brings back fun memories again~

They were giving our poor protagonist a gypsy beating when all he wanted was to be useful to them by selling quality products at reasonable prices, luckily Lammis came to the rescue, without a doubt this anime is going to be out of the usual clichés, I imagine which will be something similar to "Reincarnated as a Sword" that was broadcast a couple of seasons ago, I'll wait for you next week :D

Not bad, not bad at all. Casting Fukuyama Jun was a great choice, since most of the character comes from talking alone and there's not much room for development otherwise.

The idea is ridiculous but it's handled well, they will go to a magical engineer and it might get even more interesting.

Peak Isekai?

Required a lot of suspension of disbelief for how quickly they figured out how to operate the vending machine though, feels like maybe that segment was a little -too- smooth

First we had a slime isekai, then a chef isekai, then a sword isekai, now we have a vending machine isekai.

Honestly the first episode was hilarious for as weird of an isekai as this sounds.

Now this is something interesting! I thought Reincarnated as a Sword was the strangest way to be reincarnated, but this beats it XD. I thought the guy died while holding the vending machine was how he became like that, but the gods work in mysterious ways. It was nice he finally met someone like Lammis while being stuck, and it's fun they try otherworly-ish food though him lol. I bet when Hulemy looks at Boxxo and helps him talk more with Lammis. Now that I think about it, this is kinda like Reincarnated as a Sword, just minus the fighting side by side part.😅

why the hell someone in that world would know how to use a damn vending machine
is like an alien comes from nowhere and brings a machine from his ass and the first thing you do is press buttons in the machine

and my main question is
tf the story will be about?
i mean, what could you do with this story and 12 eps?
Well a kid with slimes and a laundry could made like 24 eps but the mc here is literally the machine... NOT THE SUPERVISOR OF THE VENDING MACHINE

This was sillier than I thought it would be...guess I'll have to watch it. :D
I was wondering why he didn't use relocation when the frogmen were beating on him, but it all worked out. Too bad he can't share any of the money he's made with Lammis or at least give her freebies for carrying him.

And yet within minutes, I've already normalised this...

I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters.

If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too.

this is some nice isekai sol, pacing and narrating style a bit like isekai nonbiri nouka, but with an absurd premise that kinda works. a bit esoteric. the art and sounds are also both not too special, but overall a show that might be jice to have for this season. lammis is also pretty likable.

I can't believe this sort of outlandish af idea is even working, tho I was very excited to watch this when I first saw its page here because of how utterly ridiculous this seemed ahahahah
Still, it was an enjoyable first episode and was interesting to see how things would work out for a vending machine

So let's see Lelouch as a vending machine and Eiko as an adventurer. All these items sure take me back. Hakkon/Boxxo is convenient for those wondering at night in the urban jungle, but he is considerate to not sell filling items in the day for the sake of other businesses.

honestly i didnt think this would be much since the concept is insane like who would watch a series about a vending machine. but for some reason i was able to watch the first ep in its entirety and surprisingly enjoyed it despite not much happening in it. Idk its a mystery but i think thisll be a good show to kick back and watch for the wholesomeness. still the fact he turned into a magic vending machine of all things is so weird even for me but i still liked it and imma probably keep watching for fun. thats it i give this ep a 9/10

It's actually not that bad as I had presumed it to be.

But I wonder what kind of conflicts can arise in such a show other than him not making enough money.

Lammis has the same voice as Maple from Bofuri! No wonder she sounds so familiar. And she's big... Isekai + vending machine, weird combination. Let's see how well it will goes from here. The food reminds me of Campfire Cooking anime airing back in April. I don't think any of the canned food or drink are real products.

Thanks for pointing this out, I thought they sounded familiar.

EP 1

Why am i even watching this again? oh well.....
remains to be seen

So that was ep 1. kind of your typical ep 1, though a bit on the slow side, only 1+1 main character, for better or worse, remains to be seen.
Since its only ep 1 there's not much to talk about, its not the best ep 1 I've ever seen, but not terrible either, and nothing overly cringy yet. Though not much content either.
Lamis/Lammis at least appears to be a pretty good girl so far, but anything/everything depends on what happens later on.
So far there hasnt been any actual combat, which I'm assuming is going to be a thing next ep. The OP/ED hasnt shown up yet either but thats a separate thing I guess.
