Ok so I edited my score a bit. Changed the character score to a 5, and overall to a 5, enjoyment to an 7. Usually with isekai in the last decade unless its Sword art online or Re:Zero, overlord, etc (The bigger ones) if you like it your most likely an isekai fan. Im one of those people. Basically if you're like me and watch medicore trash for fun, this should be enjoyable. Oh and like most of my reviews this review contains spoilers.
"Im standing on a million lives" im kind've tired of these long LN names....
When I first saw the trailer for this
...
anime, the edgy name had me feeling like it was gonna be dark, also it shows someone dying in the trailer, and I can't read apparently so I thought if you die you can't be revived. Anyways this isn't a review of the trailer. BEFORE YOU WATCH THIS JUST KNOW THIS IS NOT A DARK ANIME! Seriously its actually kinda funny. Alright lets go over the pro's and con's:
PRO'S:
1. The MC can be likeable for anyone who likes the shut in relatable generic MC, hes also not an overpowered nice guy.
2. Pretty funny at times.
3. There aren't harem plots in every isekai, I apologize for this trashy review, I was lacking braincells a few days ago. The point still stands, there is no harem plot.
4. All the characters have funny personalities that carry the show.
5. We basically have a darkness that is obsessed with cutting flesh, if that doesn't make this show anime of the season, I don't know what will.
Basically to sum the pro's up the characters carry the show. Obviously the characters aren't masterpieces that can be put in every show and make it good, but they are likeable enough atleast in my opinion.
CON'S:
1. They took what could've been a edgy isekai story, that could be in anime of the season conversation, and changed it to a pretty medicore quest anime. This may not be a con for other people but for someone who wanted to see a dark isekai this season, I was really disappointed.
2. One of the characters is a cliche Useless female character. Now this could've worked if like I said before they made it a dark, realistic story. Except this doesn't work with somewhat funny stories.
3. This might get changed when the anime ends, but since were at episode 6 (Basically the half way point.), Im going to call them out on this. It feels like the plot is mostly the 3rd quest (Or 4th quest if im wrong.). The plot basically took the 1st and 2nd quest, and used it just to add in more characters. For the plot to literallyjust be them trying to deliver goods to a village is kinda anticlimatic. I hope the show fixes that so I can delete this con, but for now its gonna stay here.
Ok, so there are alot more con's than this, and while were on that I'll show you my full rating of the show:
Story: 4/10
Art: 5/10
Sound: 4/10
Character: 5/10
Enjoyment: 7/10
I feel like I enjoy this anime way more than I should... If you read through this entire review and haven't watched the show yet, if you think the pro's outweigh the con's, or you just enjoy trashy isekai like me, I recommend you give this show a try :D
Overall: 5/10
A few days after reviewing this I checked my full anime list and I realized I gave this the same rating as Attack on titan season 2 and 3. It was also one score lower than violet evergarden, and higher than MHA season 1.
Basically unless the isekai is something big like adding something new to isekai, don't rate it based off enjoyment. The entire review will stay the same.
