Synopsis Even though Sasaki's droll corporate life is constantly filled with work, it leaves him tired and unfulfilled at the end of every day. In search of some companionship to fill the emptiness in his life, he visits a pet shop on a whim, not realizing he's about to change his life forever. After settling on an adorable bird and bringing it home...his new roommate reveals that it's actually an incredible sage from another world who promptly bestows Sasaki with supernatural powers as well as the ability to cross between worlds. All Sasaki wants to do is use these newfound powers to live in peace and comfort, but there are more than a few colorful characters who might get in the way of that...

| It looks interesting! And my favorite Gin-chan is there too! I will definitely watch this series! |
 |
| The premise sounds silly but it may work |
| So, Isekai Ojisan's broadcast just started and we already got something similar lol. Well, at least it looks like something no less funny. I like comedies that don't take themselves too seriously and are like sitcoms. |
 |
| Nishino or Tanaka should've gotten an anime first, but this is good too. Love all works written by Buncololi! |
| Quite the synopsis up there, this should make for a fun watch. Fact that this is an award-winning series and the cast lineup already looks impressive is a nice indication early up. |
#Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni  |
| Already in plan to watch. Also the star cast alone making it worth to atleast give a shot. |
 |
| Don't really care about the synopsis, but Kantoku chars design and artstyle? count me in. |
 |
| So it's an isekai and a reverse isekai all in one....Interesting |
| This looks interesting. And that's Kantoku's art style! I might pick this up once it starts airing. |
| Interesting. I will be waiting for it. Synopsis has piqued my interest. Especially the VAs that are going to take the roles. |
 |
| This anime is pure wtf with a silly bird to boot, I'll give it a try. |
 |
| Seems similar to Isekai Ojisan. |
 |
| Oh so he can go back and forward, okay maybe I'll give this a try |
| Damn Tomokazu Sugita and Aoi Yuuki are voice the main leads 😍 |
| "When There Is Evil In This World That Justice Cannot Defeat, Would You Taint Your Hands With Evil To Defeat Evil? Or Would You Remain Steadfast And Righteous Even If It Means Surrendering To Evil?" |
| Generic. Out of the question. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
| Won the award for best novel 2021, can they adapt the work well? |
| Apaixonado por jogos e animes. |
| i'm waiting for japan prime minister who got shot to death to reincarnate as a final boss trying to bring judgement on government. |
