| So many isekai/reincarnated stuff this season lol This one seems to have a protagonist who knows what he's doing with his skills and even his own party. Saitou seems like the plainest guy I've ever seen though. The other members in his party seems more interesting than him, especially that Morlock guy. I'm hoping this anime will improve more but nothing in particular stood out for me just yet. |

| Yelp, yet another Isekai reincarnation story, this time about a handyman in another world. But what's unique about this, is the original manga in a 4-koma format (similar to most CGDCT works). OP is good. The handyman Saitou, the armour warrior girl Raelza, the senile wizard Morlock, and the divine fairy sorceress Lafanpan. Saito is everything a party needs: from a locksmith to a repairman, and the comedy in this is unhinged. From Morlock forgetting spells and always having a broken back to constantly receive healing from Lafanpan, to Raelza getting jealous with Saito, and having a king's unusually long dick be a unit of measurement (Maderaka) plus countings with abacus, this is really enjoyable. The handyman Saitou truly is one-of-a-kind. Out of all the Isekai reincarnation shows this season, this is the funniest pertaining to its comedy tag. What's with studio C2C getting banger after banger Isekai reincarnation shows like Tsukimichi and Sword Isekai? Now you got me invested. |

| There are already more Isekai than stars in the universe. Pretty nice and funny start. That scatterbrained mage was hilarious. |

| Already watched this in the pre-screening on Kadokawa's channel last month. Rewatching this with the theme songs. Quite a different isekai, looking forward to the next episode! |

| Good episode. It was very funny. That old wizard is useless af, his forgetfulness is very dangerous. He can't even remember his own spells. He is even more useless than Aqua, at this point. lmao... |

| By far the best premiere of new anime i watched this season. This is all around good quality with its animations, art and direction. I laughed a lot with its comedy and i really, REALLY like the MC, just a normal dude in his profession from his real life struggling. Loved the last scene. I went in this with no expectation but this was quite frankly a wonderful start, i'm very impressed. |
| Honestly pretty damn good, from the animation to the characters. Exactly the kind of world building and humour I want in my Isekai, maderaca and all. One thing that pained me though is that they got the lockpicking tools accurately enough, but can't draw someone actually using them right. |
 |
| Shouldn't the woman rather be glad that's Saitou didn't take long? Cheapskate ain't appreciating the craft. I think it's pretty nice to have an isekai dedicated to handicraft and this is amusing to boot. Plskool said: Like Honestly I don't know anyone who is sane that likes main characters who cant do anything in terms of combat in an action anime, it hurts to see a weak main character that has no hopes of getting stronger. ππ»βοΈ not every anime has to be like a power fantasy or a battle shounen |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Raelza is cute so thats enough to keep me going. It was alright. Seems like there will be some lewd Humor with the Penis jokes but curious if the comedy can keep up. I guess this will be one of those shows where they have 4-5 minute stories put into one episode. They introduced some other character as well like the Dwarf Magician and that cute Doggo!!! So yeah we'll see where this takes us. |

| Saito seems to have already adapted to the new world he reincarnated. He's a pretty generic character, he feels worthless in his party and also in his past life. This episode is introduced in short parts which I'm not really sure how I feel, I'm guessing it will be different later on. We'll see how this age I guess. |

| First drop - of the stuff I decided to try. I first noticed about the one anime from MAPPA - with a mature/older main main char. Then someone recommended mit this one (with the handyman) + I also noticed the one with the 30 yo guy that got kicked out of the demon army (expected that one to be less good as the other two but I was wrong). Here though ... just noticed before watching episode 1: The source is a 4-koma. They usually are boring to me. (Can't remember having watched an anime I liked that was based on 4-koma.) Mainly comedy + and the plot is less good. (Cause of the way 4-koma is set up.) And it is not even as funny as normal comedy. Same goes for here. The chars seem okay. But I dislike the sudden change in scenes way too much. (You just can notice when one set/page was finished and they jumpted to the next one.) This is bad storytelling and just would work if I liked this type of comedy. But there are already other anime that are more funny than this one. (The one with the 30 yo guy. And Buddy Daddies.) I would even say ... the comedy gets already old in the first episode - starting to get repetitive with the old guy forgetting about spells. |
| This is a gem of an isekai. I love the animation, characters, pace, and humor. This pairs well with By the Grace of the Gods for a Sunday - it's relaxed, not uptight, loving and wholesome, and funny AF. LOL @ standard of measurement. Founding king's weeny size. Maybe most promising isekai in a relatively crowded field this season? Edit: the only problem for me was the introduction of the dwarf and his pooch. His story seemed unresolved within the episode. Of course I have faith he'll be worked-into things, but for an opener it left me wanting a bit more. |
| An entertaining and relaxing start. The old wizard needs to retire lol. At least Saitou is quite useful. |
 |
Ronninn said: it's a manga adaption. Most isekai LNs have essays for titles Now this is how you adapt a relatively chill series (I think, so far) And just alone the fact that most LN adaptations recently looks cheap as hell |
| An isekai based not of a light novel but on a 4-koma manga about a guy that isn't OP? Is that even possible? Ok, for now I'm in. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| So if they can make an isekai about a sword and a vending machine why not a handyman right? (IRL I have a reliable handyman that does great work and knows so much so I was eager to watch this). It's a shame how little Saitou was valued in his modern world which I question its accuracy as having a good handyman is invaluable but nonetheless its refreshing to see that in this fantasy world he is valued even though he doesn't have combat expertise (I know he does learn some of the wizard's incantations so he's helping out in combat in that way at least). The short stories are funny but I would prefer having a longer cohesive storyline so I hope that changes. I also like the character designs and again the comedy hits so I'll keep watching. |
| Loved the atmosphere of the show. Feels like a game. Also love the characters. |
 |
| You see what adapting a 4-koma manga can do? Doesn't look as cheaply made as LN isekai adaptations. C2C did a nice job with the animation, and while Saitou is quite plain, the other characters stood out with the comedic bits, and it was actually quite funny at points. A better start than I expected, I just hope the comedy doesn't get too stale as we go along. |
| Just caught up with the trailers and all I have to say is, why the yuri? Why does the yuri coomer have to win all the time? |
|
| surprisingly good it was! definitely will watch this. |
| To err is human. To purr is feline (c) |
| I don't know how come everyone liked this episode, it's just a bunch of random sketches...wtf |
| This is very different from what I was expecting, but that's not a bad thing! This looks like it's going to be more like shorts and probably won't have much of a story or consistency, but I think I'm going to enjoy this either way! |
 |
| Way sweeter and funnier than I was expecting. It was very cute how Raelza was shy about her scar, I hope she and Saitou get it on... |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| A handyman isekai? A unit of measurement based on dick size??? I’ve seen it all now lmao. Even for seasonal standards we’ve got a LOT of isekai this season, but this has the potential to be one of the top ones. I like the twist on the usual formula. Saitou having no abilities and having to rely on his party, female knight and the 4-koma comedy style really give a konasuba vibe. This could be a really good one. |
 |
| I have a soft spot for isekai &/reincarnation stories, but this first episode...well, it's an odd, clumsy intro to one. Is the manga much-beloved or something? I mean, the rating is already above a 7, & although I am, admittedly, pretty easy to entertain, I just didn't get that from this. |
 |
| Pretty weak among other isekais. A show that focuses on series of short skits per episode doesn't really speak to me. |
 |
| MacGyver goes to Isekai xDDD |
| Morlock is funny. How do you forget you're alive? ROFL Maderaka might just be favorite measurement...ever! |
| Dude, this was great. Had me actually laughing. I didn't know what to expect going into this but man... I am recommending this to all my friends. |
| Might be the best isekai of the season, pretty charming start. |
