| So the show decided to put Haruka against Tanaka, a character with the cheat/copycat skill. Kinda expected he would struggle even after figuring out his weakness. Tanaka probably has one of the worst personalities in this series imo. Bar is already set low in terms of the character personalities overall but this one takes the cake. Probably my least favorite character in this show now. |

| Really good fight and surprises. As a fellow loner, there treatment of him is the worst, invading his space, crowding him, breaking his self autonomy, even touching him without permission, all things that set off the "flee away" signals in the brain, because you want to be left alone. But the girls seem pretty determined to force him to stay with them, so what choice does he have, could have been worse. π€£π |

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.  |

| @ejleon I've no idea why he puts up with that. He's out dealing with someone who was gonna come to kill Haruka for her skill, and they think they need to give him shit when he comes back victorious? Yea, I know it's the "we care about you so that's why we're mad" type of thing but still, there are limits. He should be putting his foot down and bitching right back about the lack of gratitude, heh. Also is Tanaka dead? I assume since he said "One slip up and I'd be the one dead" that he is. |
| While the fight itself was ok I was surprised to see that Haruka using his staff as a sword and it not breaking but I guess the magic within it has made it indestructible (or something). NGL, Haruka acting like he wants to be left alone but allowing himself to be held "hostage" by the girls is getting a little old but hopefully he takes up the offer on getting his back washed by one of them. |

| @Strahan I really do get what you mean and agree to an extent. "give him sh*t", as much as they were really thankful for him, helping and caring about them, raising their levels and getting them to the town, even risking his own life to save them, they also feel betrayed that he tried to leave sneakily when everyone were gone, breaking their promise and trust in him, because they all want him to stay with them, so they are equally mad or even more mad about the latter. π ... don't ask me why, but for some reason, that sounds exactly like how women would act, instead the men are more about their bro fighting for them and winning, as we saw in the anime, them hugging him and high-fiving him. Another thing about the Male MC, he knows what he did, so he understands their anger, and he also does honestly care bout them, so he doesn't get angry or bothered, he just tries to placate them and patiently wait for another chance to go back to his loner life, this MC has a lot of patience π I have no idea, it wouldn't be the first time a "dead villain" came back, he could have copied his General Health skill to try to survive, don't know though. |

| That didn't strike me as a confirmed kill... |
| Is Tanaka really dead? I doubt it. He seems like the main villain in the story—or maybe they’ll introduce another villain down the line. The fight between Tanaka and Haruka was decent. But Tanaka’s reasons for wanting to be so overpowered didn’t make much sense. They made him seem deluded and pathetic rather than truly evil. I’m also getting tired of the routine where Haruka tries to get away, only for the girls to drag him back at night and yell at him. They keep repeating it every episode, and it gets irritating pretty fast. |
| Why did Haruka just leave him there after defeating him, what if he comes back. Or is he dead? Haruka did mention he could have been the one to die instead so maybe. Anyway the girls are tying Haruka up, what are they planning to do to him? Those perverts. |
 |
| That was a pretty good fight. I like the way Haruka thought hard about what to do during the battle. He is also pretty smart himself figuring out the weakness of Copycat. Glad to Nerds were there to help him at the end. |

| After a big battle, he comes home, just to get scolded... π
Okay, nice episode and battle. But the homecoming scenes are a bit too forced IMO than what I read in the manga, which the LN should give more interpretation. Anyway, a cool conclusion, but somehow, they didn't tell us if the Tanaka is dead or not, after that battle with Haruka. ===== ===== P.S. Haruka's harem will probably get him a scolding of a lifetime, probably. π€π«£π«£ (is it nsfw? π³)  |

| 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. |
| YUP That "Max Luck" stat at work, lol. Dodging death that's suppose to work 100% to 0%, haha. . Tho... Dummy = Puppet. But there was already a puppet skill... the Puppeteer that one of the Delinquent had... and the skill board is not suppose to have duplicate skills... I think the old dude God messed this up... . Also... MC didn't finish the dude off? why? This dude is just going to return with even more hatred... Unless that staff smack deal enough damage to actually kill the dude... . And... more YUP... he's whipped by the girls. To most, this would be a blessing surrounded by cute high school girls. But to MC that wants a loner life (adventure by himself with his own choices)... this is torture. (since MC pretty much end up doing whatever the girls wants him to do) In a way you could say this is semi-Simp... since while MC wants to leave, but he's still willing to do whatever the girls want. |

| Quite decent and surprisingly impresive animation for the standard of the show. Haruka used all his skills together and bided his time well and ultimately overpowered Tanaka. One thing he said well that Tanaka was dependent on cheat skills while others worked hard. After a though struggle Haruka finished him off for good. The fight was not bad at all. I think he earned enough leeway to do to whatever the hell he wants he saved everyone specially Class Rep. Girl give her some "reward" not scolding. |

| @Passive00 hes dead. The books are a lot more violent. This will not be the last person he just up and MURDERS by smashing their face in. |
| Finally finished with volume 1. Though I would have preferred volume 1 to be done in an entire season to be honest, oh well. I lost hope a long time ago in this adaptation. Too many various issues along with the terrible pacing. IMHO the story doesn't really begin until after volume 1 (like a prologue), hence there being like 10+ volumes lol. |

| @evilchris Bwahahaha! Thanks for the clarification. I'm enjoying the show, but the tonal shift / death emphasis hasn't been executed the best. Haruka showed more blood taking his beating than Tanaka did after getting his chest caved in, so I was unsure if this was a "surprise, I'm back" plot point for later. I appreciate the definitive response, haha! |
| W otaku to the rescue..but wait, weren't they dead? I swear that was said in one of the last episodes, but I guess it was a lie/I'm misremembering something. I get the girls being upset he left to fight without them, but wouldn't some of them at least be worried/relieved rather than mad? I know it's played for comedy but they even said they were going to scrub him down which would imply leaning positively from at least from a few of them (he did save them yet again AND take out the guy who actually killed their classmates) but instead all of them are pissed? Or is this a yell-at-you-until-I-start-crying situation? For wanting to be alone and constantly saying he wants to be alone, and building basically his own forest mansion, Haruka sure lets these super controlling girls do whatever the hell they want. evilchris said: hes dead. The books are a lot more violent. Thanks for the confirmation on that. So he straight up beat Tanaka to death with a stick. Not sure why he iirc at no point used actual magic with his magic staff though? Besides the absorbtion thing. This is kind of a problem with showing your mc doing crazy powerful things too early is we end up wondering why he didn't just use the powers he had before (flight, lightning magic he created, etc).

| Censorship is vandalism. |
| It was a good fight episode with scolding at the end. "Even the worst skills have their uses." |
| An epic battle. There's some flaws here and there, but overall it's good. Our mc is oblivious that Ms Class President likes him. |

| @SawronZXZ Answering your question, there was enough content. We skipped quite a lot, from leveling details and various other things like the girl's perspectives on what happened before this whole entire mess happened. The light novels add so much more context and depth to every single thing that happens. Without it, this story loses a lot of its meaning and value. |

| @SawronZXZ unless you like isekai trash like i do, and even if you do, i wouldnt recommend the book. Plus it doesnt look like you've read a whole lot. I would instead recommend almost any other LN to get started. Then after a master piece read loner life as a pallet cleanser. |
| Yes, please, massage me with hot bath. I feel less bad about him with that one because hot baths and massages are soooo god. He got to spend a little bit of time alone at his vacation property as well as get some super training. ο»ΏThe made-up skill makes me laugh everytime. That guy killed so much, wonder who the next threat will be. Dude has 100% females, Jocks, Nerds all at his back. |
