Kugumiya Rie voicing Fenrys will be what carries this show for me. Haven't heard her as a main character in such a long time. Nothing else notably redeeming about the show. Typical become effortlessly OP and trying to live a casual life isekai plot, which believe it or not, is quite common.

Again it's the same stuff, mc gets isekai'd, has no power and instantly gets overpowered because of some stupid unkown reason. I don't think this anime will be any unique...

It's like an easy/cheat version of Shield Hero. Don't get me wrong, I like this, I also like how this anime seems to be much less violence than Shield Hero, I'm not a fan of violence.

Fantasy world person isekai into another fantasy world is quite original, only if it's true. We don't know if this is really different world or not. It could be the same world, just different country or different era, which would make it a time-traveling anime instead of isekai.

Yawned so many times throughout the episode, but wanted to watch till the end to see maybe if there's an interesting twist. Nah, it's just so generic and boring. The dumb king, the mc who turns to be more op than actually thought and there's nothing to suggest me this will provide something different than we already have seen before.

He knows he leveled to 367 but still thinks he's a beginner.

Aside from that it's a competent isekai.

Another show this season coming from a fantastic manga. Those of you who’ve read the manga know exactly what I’m talking about. You’ll also know that if this show is only 12 episodes it’s got no reason to even be made.. Just like Arch demons Dilemma or solo-leveling the real meat of these stories goes far beyond 12 little episodes.. also, since I’m piling it on here those of you rating this one down in the 6’s but some of these others in the 8’s is truly the most terrifying thing of all..

Oh no, it's one those shows where the author won't stop making a dumb-ass out of the mc.
Did you know the MC is unbelievably OP and doesn't realize it? Yes you did? Well too bad, let me repeat it a hundred times anyways!
The plot pacing is all over the place as well...
This is the type of show that doesn't respects its viewers intelligence.

I'm addicted to this kind of shit, the girls are cute and it seems interesting even tho the various isekai generic themes are all present and pretty standard (apart from the fact the MC it's not from our world but from another fantasy one), however the blend of them seems interesting, not a bad start.
The seiyuu cast it's not bad either and JC Staff is a studio I appreciate.

@Ryoda- the fact that always disturbs me the most of this kind of cast out OP summoned hero isekais is that the MC in the moment he discovers he is OP (or in part realizes he is more strong than the average adventurer) never and I say never (or very rarely) seeks revenge over the garbage king-kingdom that cast him out and tried to get rid of him, instead of I don't know for example establish a new kingdom in the forest or an empire and seek glory, he changes appearence and lays low and tries to keep hidden his abilities, pretty standard humble herbivore behaviour...

As much as I normally enjoy isekai trash being injected to my veins like an addict, even I'm starting to get tired of the same old tired tropes with nothing unique enough about them setting them apart from the next isekai. I've started to watch these shows at 2x speed, despite only continuing with them to kill time. At least the character designs are nice.

The manga was much better, the tone was a little bit more serious / mature.
The anime they downgraded the story into a cutie cutie parody.

I hope it's only in episode 1, if the art style and acting is going to continue being all kiddie like, i'll probably drop it. Don't want to ruin the nice image from the manga.

Ehh, this isn't like Failure Frame (coming later this year) where the Goddess chucks the 'failed' candidate into a dungeon that's literally designed to kill him. More of a 'just go away, I don't particularly care if you live or die' kind of thing.

Dang. Wish he would have kept that female form... or his original form. Both were nice to look at. Honestly, I like most of the designs of the women in this anime. Those four that were suspicious were all really cute-- buff chick and all. Not the wolf girl, but yeah like yeah I could stick around and watch just for them. I'm in.
Also, I kinda like the idea that he's from some other fantasy world instead of some overworked salaryman. I like that about this already. Not expecting much, but I'll stick with it.

Although I knew you could watch this episode elsewhere, I decided to wait till it dropped on crunch to check it out, but there’s also the fact I decided to pick it up the day it aired so I guess that didn’t really matter lol. And the reason I picked this up is the same reason I added a couple shows to my list way back in Spring 2022, and it’s because DIALOGUE+ is doing the ED lol, yeah that’s right, I’ll pick a whole show just for this group. But it’s not only that, this show did interest me when I first saw it on LiveChart, and I gotta say I really liked this first episode, it had a bit of a typical start but I liked some of the unique aspects like the fact Banaza/Flio was reincarnated from a fantasy world into another fantasy world, not sure if I’ve ever seen that before.

And you also have the fact it wasn’t until he leveled up that he became overpowered, yeah this isn’t gonna matter now that he’s already broken but I like it just as a beginning thing, and of course there was some good comedy there with the rapid fire notifications, as well as when he tried the female option when shapeshifting and wow did he look smoking hot lol, it caught me off guard. This isn’t that type of show tho so he went with a look that’s kinda similar to how he used to look and started going by Flio, and it didn’t take long until he was in trouble again when he was assaulted by several waifus at once, that’s a lot right at the start lol, he soon got them off his back tho when he proved he could actually use teleportation, and that’s what got us to the end where Flio is taking on a giant wolf monster which will most definitely become a waifu as well if I’m guessing correctly, I gotta say the scenes with her looked pretty good too.

And we did get the ED that got me watching this show to begin with, and it is quite wacky but a DIALOGUE+ song is always a great jam, glad to have them again for another anime season, not sure about the OP tho as MAL has nothing listed for it atm. And I guess with that I look forward to seeing how this show plays out, I’m hoping it’s a bit more chill but I could see it being action oriented too.

So I take it that the wolf the MC is fighting is going to become either his wife of part of his potential harem (I'm basing this off of the poster).

One thing that is pretty unique with this series is that the MC came from another world that is more similar to the one he got summoned to rather than from modern day Japan.

I'm enjoying the hell out this so far because vibes. But that fight with the Fenrir.

Had her skull superimpose on the foreground. When she leaped towards the mc.

Who was at the time transitioning to the right side of your view.

As he was supposed to become I don't know...Minimized in the face of her "approach"?

Clearly though reality wonk'd out.

With the Fenrir feme fatal becoming a bobble head dead center.

And our hero moving to the left instantly. Almost under her.

As a way to express the closed distance. In an instant with her "leap".

This was such a disconnect that I'm not even mad. It didn't really detract from the whole production.

Its just not getting above a 5/10 from me. Without proving this was a one off failure.

On its initial airing. Like a "fix it in post" problem.

I get it. It happens. Seen it years ago with other productions on their episode one's.

However this production is ahead of them in spades.

As its not holding one of the illustriously few slots. That I've ever rated under a 4/10.

Ie those previous productions that have failed in such a manner.

Why? I just like this one thats why.

It was enjoyable. And not even a bad run.

Outside of that, arguably important, initial display of its "combat".

I'm looking forward to episode two. Even with this being my harshest post in a long while.

I have a good feeling about this production and its adaption of a strong source.


// Edit

Checked its Mal page against the seiyuus... Lead for Lv2 is also Momonga.

No wonder I'm associating this with a strong source.

This is going to be just fine .

The first episode was good, I enjoyed it. I am happy about Crunchyroll to introducing this anime on their platform as well. About the anime, it is new and the light novel is better. I do not want to offend anyone, but I hope there will not be any more similarities between this anime and “The Wrong Way To Use Healing Magic”. I feel that they just copied from other Isekai anime, but it is only the first episode. Overall, the ending theme is heartwarming:)

@Paulternative the king even cursed the magic bag he gifted to him with magic that attracts monsters and gave him a garbage sword and exiled him into a cursed forest, it's something more of an "I don't care if you live or die situation", I thought the same as you during his trip before the "system" warned him of the cursed status of the bag and the contamination with dark energies of the forest (the lizardman warned him but not in detail).

To me is a sort of hypocrite: "I send you to die but I give you many supplies so you have a narrow possibility to survive my conscience is clear".
And the definitive proof that the king wanted effectively get rid of him is the conversation with the princess, but his actions where more than obvious of which outcome he wanted for the mc.

it has the startings of a decent isakai. The first difference being that the main character is not yet immediately aware of his crazy power. First episode mostly focused on him instead of throwing tons of peoples names at us. So that was nice.

So we got a MC that should have infinite stats that meens he should be super smart and yet he is not very bright, like cannot see the king tries to kill him of and many other things, he basicly very dum for some one that should be super smart.
Beside the way they treat him and among other things, and the anime quality not to good neither, all in all subpar from episode 1 does not give it any hope for other episodes

Interesting concept.

Instead of the usual "Earth"

The MC Isekai from a different world that is already Fantasy-like.

.

TBH tho I just realized... the summoning system is shitty... no matter where or what, being randomly summoned without your permission or authorization is just shitty.

Especially if there's a risk of not being able to return back to your old world.

Even if there was a way to send people back... like in this case, MC gets ignored and they forgot to send him back... shitty system.

.

If I was the MC, I would have be so mad, that I would gone on a revenge plot if I found out I had actual godly powers once I leveled up.

Tho... looks like MC's original world and this world is fairly low in the mathematic scale... that they don't know what "infinite" symbol is. But then again... that symbol is created on Earth... LOL (so OFC they wouldn't know, one was summoned from Earth...)

The Princess tho, she's actually a nice Princess this time? (most other Isekai series with a bad king is usually accompanied with a bad princess)

.

Also... so apparently MC could swap his gender... LOL (feels like another case of "slime-isekai" but choose to be male)

.

Another fun isekai this season. What really separates this one is that the MC doesn’t come from modern earth. It’s cool that his original world already has concepts of magic, monsters, demihumans etc.

I like and empathise with Flio/Bonaza as an MC. Dude just trying to live a simple life and make a living, gets caught up in this war in another world and summoned against his will, only to be discarded and banished to a forest like wtf? I want the king and kingdom to be destroyed honestly. The scenes when the blonde hero gets his ass beat and exposed as a fraud will be amazing 😭

Assuming the girls become Bonaza’s party, I can see some konosuba type vibes in terms of party composition.

Not an earth shattering isekai by any stretch, but pretty fun so far.

It's not just the affair of Crunchyroll's leaks, the Puerto Rico anime con is to blame.

But getting into the show, Miya Kinojo's series does play against it when it comes to the title, it's just that obvious of a ridicule of standard Isekai/fantasy elements known all too well.


Merchant Banaza (honestly just call him Banana) having to deal with both humans and demihumans, the prejudice of dealing with the latter is one, but being summoned to the Magical Kingdom of Klyrode as the 198th hero candidate, an Isekai fantasy within a fantasy, who may have no Divine Revelation, he's just like any lukewarm forgotten summoned hero who just wants to get back home. But the blunder of the kingdom has him being sent off to Delaveza Forest with an NDA forbidden treatment of leaking their mistake. At the very least, both humans and demihumans live alongside each other, so that's not bad at all. The gimmick, however, is with Banaza gaining to Lv2 and earning rather OP skills from the get-go...it's no different from starting out at Lvl 1 and doing the same thing.

Turns out, Banaza's OP skill just did eliminate the Dark Army while not killing monsters with infinite powers, eh, everything is easy-peasy for Banaza at this point. All he needs to do now is to feign an alias under a different name (Filo) and go on quests...until he spots a girl wanting to go to the forest. Of course, all of his magic is overpowered in the guise of looking average, enough to attract the attention of a few adventurers. But the young girl being a target for anyone going to the Delaveza Forest to see the Dark Army, she is no mere simpleton: the lupine Fenrys of the Infernal Four.

Yep, essentially everything in the standard generic Isekai story is all here and done before. What's new? The fact that J.C.Staff has the same couple VA pairings of ToraDora, Shakugan no Shana and even Zero no Tsukaima, now that's intention.
@KANLen09 this story turns out to be amazing. With a large cast of fun and silly characters. I truly believe by the end of the season most people will really love this one.
