| Typical salaryman gets sent to another world. Got to see a glimpse of what Uchimura's real life is like. This had some cheeky humor. Ulmandra made the most impression imo, mostly with her fiery personality. Seems this will follow mostly their adventures together. I will say though...Uchimura has a way with words, at least he seems somewhat intelligent. |

| ABEMA / dAnime Store Early Airing. Mangaka Benigashira's series is rather interesting for an Isekai fantasy summoning of a salaryman. Kentaro Seino's OP is rather OK (which his voice sound too much akin to Masayoshi Ooishi), but otonari's ED is good. The life of Dennosuke Uchimura being the demoted salaryman overly working for slogs and always being transferred overseas, only to find himself Moped-kuned and summoned by the Demon King as one of the Demon Army's 4 Elite Generals bearing the Overseas Manager moniker, this job is too easy for him to pass the chance. Furthermore, with the Demon King seeing potential in him, aside from the other 3 who doesn't feel that he is the suitable person for the job. And to that extent, the Demon King issuing the entrance exam for him to negotiate with other demi-human tribes to join the Demon Army, to have the Inferno Assailant of Ulmandra assist him, it's truly the test of his second life with no magic, just resourcefulness. Ulmandra helping on negotations with the Minotaur Tribe's chief Tarius...only for her to burst out in anger against him when he refuses, that leaves an even frightening prospect of a hot mess for Uchimura to counter. With a cinch of the moments of his past life, Uchimira attempts the near-impossible, and the pact is finalized from both sides, as a result of both emotion and compassion, which thereby Uchimira passes the exam. This is only the beginning of Uchimura's negotiating power to become part of the Elite Generals. The power of negotiation in an Isekai, this is already very interesting enough. Looking forward to see Uchimura's exploits in the fantasy world. |

| Capable salaryman being underpaid and not aknowledged gets hit by the scooter-isekai~~ New shining about to make to make the demon realm shine. Do you wanna be boiled or turned into sashimi? (lol) |
| . |
| the first ep establishes an interesting premise and introduces a likable protagonist. However, there is room for more character development and a more balanced pace to maximize the series' potential. i think it's a bit rushed somethings, Uchimura’s transition into the new world and his acceptance of the role as one of the Four Heavenly Kings happen quickly, without much exploration of his emotions or initial challenges. A more gradual development could enrich the narrative. 5,5/10 |

| What is this Shredder from Taobao? |
| it was a good start "original" story so why not |
| otakuweek (100k Followers) on insta for News /best recom etc just have a look, you won't regret it... Link below: https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh |
Ah, season comedy/parody Isekai with some serious tone about office work culture. Uchimaru and Ulmandra relationship is what I am interested in the most, wonder where it leads. |

What is this Shredder from Taobao?
| @LacingMaster The item is like a traditional paper shredder, possibly offering a more compact or affordable solution for document destruction needs. P.S.: Taobao is a Chinese e-commerce website. |
| The wet dreams of Japanese office plankton. Boom, there he is... A boss who appreciates you and has high hopes for you. A busty demon who's 'ready' already at a moment's notice. And that's just the first episode. And he does everything in a heartbeat. He gets it overnight. A little bit about why there are such anime, who they are for. A lot of text underneath. |

| Gotta have my seasonal dose of Eris aka hot headed red hair waifu. Love Ulmandar already and she's voiced by Koko chan so even better. It's like Eris voiced by Roxy lol. Otherwise decent start, seems like will be somewhat fun/amusing. Demon Lord seems like a nice character. Need more world building info though, curious. ED song was pretty nice. |

| I am shocked how much I enjoyed the 1st episode. I will continue watching. I wasn't even om my PTW list. I just watched it because I had nothing better to do. |
| Meh. But it's from Geek Toys so I'm definitely not expecting much. Guess I'll give it a few more episodes |
| The OP vocals are pretty alright. The visuals is much much better than the ED. Someone on this forum said that "The OP is like a roller coaster" which i really agreed with. Apperently the OP spoiled one of the main girls... why???? The ED vocals are good. The visuals are just moving frames, but the vocals do make up for it. The Minotaur agreement was talked about in post... which is a shame and also really weird? This whole shows premise is doing the bureaucratic dirty work and we dont see it in the FIRST episode? The red hair girl isnt very compelling or interesting, just seems very generic. The demon lord on the other hand seems like a much more interesting character but he seems a bit one note so far. 3/5 Intial predictions is a 6.5/10 show |
| well DAMN... Urumander got me simping there better be some female villains, cause i swear all i saw were dudes... smh... |
   |
| Not Truck-kun this time, but Moped-chan, eh. Middle management sounds like hell on earth, whereas the demon lord's army gives better competitive benefits. Where'd the bar come from? I'm curious to see where this goes. It's like if "Rock" from Black Lagoon was summoned to a different world instead of Thailand. |
| Come on, this first episode seemed to me to be something a little different from normal, although the person invoked is something very common and present in animes, we are seeing a different direction, this path that this anime will take could be interesting, but at the same time it could be boring or start to be if something comes along to change it, like an event, battles, or something similar, that makes it interesting, while it can be good, it can also be bad. |
I love tsunderes <3. This series is a masterpiece for that reason alone. I’m so glad a character like that was included ❤️. Let’s go!!! It’s going to be a pleasure enjoying this series with all of you ❤️  A tsundere character are so rare these days </3. I think it’s because they’re more of an old-school stuff, but I absolutely love it ❤️. (Correct me if I’m wrong!) |

| The usual hard working salaryman working for a black company. The demon lord of all people appreciates all the work he has done. He managed to accomplish his 1st task easily. Decent anime so far. |

| To get sent to another world by a moped grandma is embrassingly bad 😂😂😂 No idea what I just watched but I love it!! The demon Lord VA sounds similar. Also sexy dragon lady waifu with a personality to match her bust. 🙃 What are the chances that she lays eggs ? ( Asking for a friend...)  |
MariklynJan 2, 6:13 AM
| Black company's exploitation, revealed. Isekai'd to have better benefits? lols Nekomimi detected.  Not really interested in the "Overlord's character", but much more interested in MC's relationship with the other two girls of the big four. (hoping for some romance... lols) Anyway, we know where this is going. It's another "isekai'd to properly manage something because the people there are hopeless in management" kind of series. |
CrazyButNot4UJan 2, 12:00 AM
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| This was a good plot and first episode. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |
| It’s crazy I was hesitant about picking this one up and it ended up being the best story so far of the isekai/fantasy stuff this season lol. Certainly better than Bogus Skill, alchemist and S Rank cat. I’m a sucker for the salaryman isekai’d trope when done right, I.e the salaryman actually acts like a proper adult and not a cringe teenager who happens to be 30. Daisuke coming from a toxic work situation where he was basically just ordered around, to a being actually valued as one of the demon lord’s generals is cool. Actually gave me some vibes of Magilumiere from last season with how Kana was treated at her new company, as well as strongest mage in the demon lord’s army from a few seasons ago. Bit of that handyman Saitou magic too. Lot of positives here. “It’s not for you or your former job to determine if you’re worthless. It’s for I.” Lmao real “Believe in the me that believes in you” esque of the demon lord there. Daisuke might lack Ulmandra’s strength, but he makes up for it with his ability to understand people and get shit done. He’s a great negotiator and he just has a human element the demon lord’s army been missing. Negotiations with Tarius were interesting and I had fun in this episode seeing Ulmandra come to accept Daisuke. BUT I feel like the romance is moving too fast on that front. I hate when girls fall in love with the dude off one positive interaction. 🤦🏽♂️ she’s really pretty though and Geektoys seem to be doing well with the production values so I’m looking forward to the rest of this one. |

| Good first impression for this show. Nothing crazily funny in this first episode, but it was amusing and even fairly inventive at times (among other things, truck-kun has been replaced haha). Ulmandra was cute and I love her VA, plus the plot was easy to follow and makes you a little bit curious about the salaryman new 'boss' as well as the world in which he is now living. Basically, looking forward to the next episodes :) |

| @MeguSae38 I recall Kazuma got isekai-ed for even less than a moped crash. Also not the first maou to be offering better working conditions:  I recall seeing a clip of another maou/villain type anime character offering some encouragement in a corporate setting, but I can't remember the name of the anime. Also, I'm guessing this is part of some Japanese culture of downplaying your prior achievements at a job interview so as not to appear boastful:  |
| Wow! This was a great episode. I’m really looking forward to seeing more. The Demon Lord seems like the perfect boss for our main character to team up with, and the rest of his colleagues don’t seem half bad either. This show definitely has potential! |
| Okay first episode, not too impressed or that interested so far, but I'll give it two more episodes before deciding to drop or not |
 |
 Another censored crap |
| This isn't even slop, it's just plain bad. Also, why does the Demon Lord look like a worse version of Shredder? Hell, he could be a villain from a Power Rangers episode. |
