| Takumi meeting new people in a new town looks like something that is just supposed to happen. Out of all the cast he's met so far though, it does seem Sofia is hardest to get along with. But then again, he managed to make the best of whta he can do with his abilities. Nothing really special about this episode but at least Sofia does have a softer side. |
 |
| takumi encountering fresh faces in an unfamiliar place seems like an inevitable thing lol nothing really exciting happened but at least there's more to sofia than meets the eye nice even though shes tough to deal with takumi still managed to find his way around her thats pretty impressive |
 |
| Sofia and Maria are so cute and perfect companions for Takumi. Very much looking forward to the next episode. |
| I was totally overlooking Takumi's friendly interaction streak. I didn't even think about the possibility that he was being helped by the goddess as a tutorial. It's nice to see someone taking a hands on approach to get their world back on track. |

| Wow, one year together and not one shred of trust or decent communication between the guy and the elf, how pathetic is that? Garbage time skip as well. This show belongs in the toilet. |

| I was a bit concerned with how fast Takumi learned and figured everything out in the beginning of the show, but i seem to be liking it more and more for each episode. This was a bit of a slower episode which was quite nice, we got to meet some more of our main cast too. I can't say i'm super invested in the other storyline that is building up in the background with our other summons, but that will become more prominent later so hopefully i'll end up enjoying that too. I guess i just want to watch people do dumb stuff and have fun in the other world, oh well. Looking forward to next week. There has got too be better ways to level up your healing other than cutting yourself in a secluded shed. Good golly |

| Now here is an anime that had a few misunderstanding and an argument start because she wanted to protect her friend, but then had communication and an honest explanation follow to clear it up. This is what those anime building constant misunderstandings and absolutely no communication lack, making it like beating a dead house, it gets frustrating annoying after a few episodes. |
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.  |
| Fairs I was so close to just turning this show into mindless background noise, but Sofia and Maria showing up has saved it. Sofia especially is so pretty! Wouldn’t be a seasonal fantasy show without the buying gorgeous and secretly OP slaves trope. Can understand Sofia being skeptical about Iruma given how casual and frankly nice he is. Hopefully things get more interesting now that his convenience gimmick has worn off and inconvenient things can happen. Especially with two other heroes from Japan in the mix! |

| I'm really curious how the lines from a year ago and the present will cross, especially considering that in the manga the iseaki other heroes will happen three years later instead of a year later. |

| @Oppai_Loli_God am not sure that's the case. I think they are jumping back and forth in time. But it's so poorly written it might be as you say. |
Reply to kta_99
I basically never drop anime, but I'm dropping this. Dude is under no pressure whatsoever, totally accepted by the community, has OP magic, and somehow he becomes OK with slavery for no reason. I held onto hope after the end of episode 2, but clearly that was in vain.
| @kta_99 all they had to do was phrase it as magical job contract and it would serve the same purpose without it being cringe. But no, target audience is average incel so there has to be a harem in which every member falls in love with him while he's too afraid to say their names, let alone touch them. |
Reply to notthatjesus
lol @ the slaver being like "no, no, our slavery is ethical" followed by "our most common slaves are those captured by thieves & bandits & illegally forced into slavery"
| @notthatjesus well of course. Who else can they sell without them objecting. Next step is to claim they actually love being beaten and eating food scraps. |
Reply to phantomfandom
Is it just me or why all male masters have female slaves? Especially in isekai anime, why can't male masters have male slaves...
| @phantomfandom simply put target audience wouldn't like it. Average harem enjoyer loves these situations where they have number of different girls all with different physical and character traits to chose from, all of whom are madly in love with this perfect blue eyed character who never stepped on a flea let alone ever hurt a human being. And yet they can't pronounce girls names without shaking like koala shitting from the tree. Weird type of power fantasy. Like he could totally pick and chose any of them to have sex with but he's a good guy so he doesn't have to. Am totally expecting girls to become thirsty in next few episodes to further push the cliche. And then at some point accept that he's allowed to have other girls as long as he has them as well. |
| So the slaves aren’t quite what they seemed after all, although they still apparently have unwilling slaves captured by bandits lol, but Maria and Sofia seem like they’ve been treated well all this time based on their interactions with the owner Mulan, so that’s good at least, and their treatment by Takumi has been first class so far as well. And I really like the two of them, the first moment with Maria was very funny when she was surprised Takumi was okay not sleeping with her lol, I thought the voice acting was especially great, and although Sofia was prickly at first, the moment she was cured by Takumi she melted like butter, I’m interested in seeing how she performs in combat, which may be coming soon with those teases of the “heroes” that were also isekai’d. Also, it’s interesting to find out that Takumi has basically been in tutorial mode so far with all the friendly interactions he’s had, I’ve seen so many shows where the MC is treated so nicely by everyone that I thought it was normal, but not in this show apparently lol, I doubt this means Takumi will have a lot of trouble all the sudden but I like this reveal. |
| Well.. So far this seems to be one of the better isekais i've seen this season. Tho i have to say this episode saved it from joining the trash bin if it had continued with the happy go lucky, everything is easy and everyone is nice. I do hope tutorial is actually over now, it doesn't have to be full on combat but at the very least his business ventures should get some pushback, alongside the overarching other hero's will be brainashed and evil religion plot of course. The bandits/thieves forced people into slavery part being included in an attempt to make slavery ethical is a little odd tho.... I'm fine with slavery when it's ethical and no morally questionable things are allowed. If it's pretty much an absolute NDA and employment contract it's fine. Kinomi Master and Botsuraku Yotei no Kizoku dakedo being utter trash and I tried Salaryman ga Isekai but just can't get into how dumb the premise of a salaryman adviser is. Does Nihon e Youkoso Elf-san count as an isekai, if it does i quite enjoyed it so far but too early to tell. Anyhow, this seems to shine brighter than it might deserve so far but only time will tell. |
| things are looking good for takumi, aside from some minor misunderstandings from the elf's part, but she was weary from the beginning given what happened to her. i wonder if the other three summoned otherworlders will end up crossing paths with takumi. |
       |
| Takumi hurting himself in order to cure Sofia, that is commitment to the cause. Those slaves got themselves the perfect master. |

| When I saw the amount of comments I thought the show was being quite liked, only to find that many of the comments were about the slavery part... classic xD. Anyway, I finally decided to watch it and catch up and I must say I am really enjoying this show. It's a fun and nice watch. Sora Amamiya, Ai Kayano, Nao Touyama... Not gonna lie, they were the ones that drew me to watch the show in the first place haha. I really like the goddess, I love her design and she is very cute. I love Sora Amamiya voicing her and how she is the complete opposite of Aqua haha. It's always great to hear more from Ai Kayano, especially with a more main role. I'm happy for that. And of course, I'm so damn weak to Nao Touyama's voice <3. I can't help it, she sounds so damn cute! I think Maria is going to be my best girl if she isn't already. Looking forward to more! |
| I am loving this show. The MC might be a bit lacking, but overall, he’s fine. His new slaves, who are technically slaves but seem more like party members, are interesting characters in their own right. I am looking forward to seeing how the other characters who were summoned are going to do. The girl seems very smart; she already knows that the nation that summoned them is not a good place with good leaders. |
| still as generic as ever although I do like the unconventional ways he's leveling up his skills lol, slightly better development than your run of the mill isekai too which is something I guess. Hope the other summoned people get more screen time soon |
 |
| Expecting some action soon tm. |

Reply to lanata
possibly the greatest slaver of all time !!
there's so many anime with pro-slavery sentiment. god i hate it. the thing that makes it so much worse is that anime with the opposite sentiment isn't anywhere to be found. where's the pushback?

| @lanata Skeleton Knight isekai has the MC freeing slaves. Also, although not in the anime (yet?), but the MCs in Reincarnated as a Sword kills slavers. I'd also prefer for the majority of stories being anti-slavery. |
ow + nw = 90-2000s |
| I really take issue with MC's that get hysterical over everything. The one saving grace is that at least the girls have realized he's a wuss. |
 |
| The topic of "slave" sure is still highly debated huh. Like half of ppls already accepted fantasy slavery in anime, while the other half talks about ethics based off of our world. . I am about half. While I do agree slavery is wrong, but it's so common in fantasy anime, it's normal to always assume there would be slavery. And this episode also touched on the topic that slaves are used as "lewd activity". Since the orange hair girls instantly jumps straight to "sleep" topic, which suggests this type of activity is common place for slaves to do. (if not the main point of slaves) . But MC is already used to being the "Master". LOL Also... the Goddess said "I don't bother with human activity", but take peeks at them anyways, LOL. |
