Ah yes, we meet again Truck-kun.

Jokes aside, I think the approach to this show has some interesting elements in particular the narrative storytelling style. Osamu is more tolerable than some of the other protagonists from isekai anime this Summer season. Beyond just being self aware, he appears to have a more complex personality.

Ths still falls under some of the same isekai tropes though such as "goddess/guide from another world", cat girl, adventure themes, and general stuff you'd see in isekai. Deceptively funny in some ways but it'll need to improve more imo.

Them casting Kamiya Hiroshi as Dazai (same seiyuu of Levi Ackerman and Araragi Koyomi, and other similar looking characters) makes this feel like 'Sayounara, Zetsubou Sensei' (he is also the seiyuu of the MC, Itoshiki Nozomu).
Hearing his voice in this kafka-esque character makes me remember that iconic scene in Zetsubou Sensei about 'how to get taller'.

The mixture of trope satire and morbid humor was water in the desert of repetitious anime. "Other World Transport Service " LOL.
I was steadily laughing by the time that Annette and the Cat-girl With No Name were fighting over our anti-hero. Please anime gods, may the rest of the show be as hilarious.

It's surprising it's rated only PG-13, like i don't think a 13 year old would handle all the mentions of suicides/drowning/afterlife etc stuff unless they're some gothic themselves :^).
Well anyway, it's interesting & amusing anime, it can literally go anywhere lol, and the characters are good. It's funny how all female characters are whipped for Sensei but understandable really

So yeah, this anime has my immediate attention. For the sake of full honest disclosure, being someone who struggles with severe depression I have never felt so seen when it comes to a Main character. Not on every level mind you, The "Double suicide" aspect is a bit touchy for me, my issue are my own and I an not one to pull others down with me so to speak and I'm nowhere near as fully committed to a plan as this guy or anything like that, but it does enter into some unique and otherwise unexplored thematical issues. How do you handle motivation for a character where motivation is the fundamental flaw to begin with. The power fantasy aspect does not apply. You dont want the normal things that seem like they would drive a person to want to be better and improve. You just want out, and no one takes you seriously and or/ doesn't know where to begin the help you. How to you begin to find value in an existence to seems fundamentally meaningless. I want to see where this goes, and I don't want this to just be drawn out as a recurring gag/punchline. One thing I can say for sure though, this show already has me engages and puling genuine belly laughs out of me. Its refreshing to see an someone willing to take a look at an issue that most people like to ignore as hard as they can. This show has something, I 'm eager to see where it's going

Well, it's yet another Isekai parody, but thankfully this time it didn't annoy me or bore me right off the bat.

I think it has something to do with the MC not being a loud, obnoxious, reborn-otaku for once. The quiet, dead-pan & nihilistic type is much more bearable.

Also helps that he's not an "ordinary/average high school kid" too. It's a bit annoying that the first person who meets our MC has already fallen in love with him, because of course that's how it goes with all these shows. But again, I'm happy they're not all Tsunderes yelling & insulting him nonstop as well.

I'm just realizing as I write this that I must be burnt out on all the overbearing, loud, yelling type characters in anime lol

Seems pretty mid. Holy edgeville
- Ending song went hard
- The concept of the truck being something summoned to pick up a person from another world is funny
- I hate the main guy so much. Japan needs to stop portraying suicide this way, it’s really getting on my nerves.

That's certainly a unique isekai protagonist xD Not sure how I feel about this show kinda glorifying suicide though. But it was a funny first episode, so this could be good.

Finally some of the Truck-kun's lore.
Any why tf that elf lady fell for this lame guy. Doesn't makes sense.
Fucking hiliarious how Truck-kun intercepted their suicide.


MC isn't likable as he just want to suicide again after finding Sachan. Shouldn't he try to live together in this world.

The joke feels played out within the first 5 minutes, and then just felt like someone trying to explain why a joke was funny for the rest of the episode. I laughed when the truck interrupts their double suicide but every other joke fell flat imo.

In-universe reasons within the context of the story? Because he's just that different from every other isekai'd person ("Other Worlder") she's encountered previously, and thus a breath of fresh air when she was finding her life's work stale and losing all sense of meaning and purpose in it.

Meta writing reasons? Because he's the main character and that's what's supposed to happen for plot reasons and convenience's sake.

Great and funny start, but I hope this Sacchan is either alive in that previous world or here with him, but then if she was in here then the priest would know... It might be that he murdered Sacchan instead of double suicide, also why suicide if he had lover? they should be happy..

The parody elements also are nice, but that "tentacle" on cat girl was what I hate...

I wonder if isekai anime encourage people to suicide?:D I mean I would do it if I knew it is true :D

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

I can't believe they made a story on purpose about Truck-kun in the anime about sending people into a other world and also hopefully he overcomes from he suicide thoughts later on and just learns how to live his life again.

I find it interesting that they decided to portray Dazai as his ego instead of his persona. In the books his depression is mostly only internal while he shows a joking/class clown to the rest of the world to hide his nihilistic feelings. So while this character is very Dazai, it's also technically not Dazai.

This is actually miserable to watch, he's not funny sad he's just sad sad. It's like watching Edgar Allen Poe in action.

I like the nod to Isekai Transporter at the beginning, and seeing him chew on pills like candy is rather entertaining, but I don't get the impression I'm going to finish this if he's this annoying in episode one.

I haven't seen anything like this before.
The main mc is trying to do himself in any means necessary.
It was hilarious seeing the tree die by poison in that situation.


I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

Reply to Hesmiyu
@DeBoulder They took the comments away from everyone. Instead of getting moderators, they went nuclear.
@Hesmiyu Doesn't give us notification when people replied to our comments and then decided to remove the comment section. Crunchyroll not making good decisions. I like reading comments after watching an episode but now I had to navigate each one on MAL. Great for binge watching but sucks for weekly episodes.

Good episode, I like the detail that the truck is literally an entity that chooses unhappy people to take them to another world through a brutal crash hahaha (the famous cliche of the isekais)
Despite having a basic animation and a CGI that is not convincing, I quite like the protagonist and the dark and comic fantasy story/theme of the anime
The man simply wants to die in peace, although now this will go on pause until he meets his lover so they can do it together. Here the protagonist should be careful because a new life in another world may change his lover's thinking and he will having to do it alone after 20 arcs and 400 episodes haha

PS: At the moment this Isekai doesn't seem to be a big deal but it is quite entertaining

Finally starting this. I can see that this would be a mediocre isekai, but the twist is that it is a parody of isekai like the INSTANT DEATH isekai earlier. That one was pure comedy but this one has some drama.

Sensei has a good seiyuu. It will delve into themes that I might like but I'm willing to be surprised.

At first I groaned at the tropes until the fact this slowly had me dying of laughter with each joke. The morbid humor, the fact his un-carrying attitude just had me dying with his lack of care for his surroundings.

Though I don't care much for the world he ended up in, I do enjoy the humor.
