Knights of Sidonia is an interesting mecha and space scifi story that makes somewhat polarizing use of 3D animations.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 8/10
-----------------------------------------------

There's no way to get around the show's extreme use of 3D visuals which can be a little polarizing. The scenery and battle scenes are undoubtedly very impressive. There's great attention to details, and the 3D style is very suitable for things like battle mechs.

However, there's also no denying that the 3D style is far less suitable for characters who come off looking like a bunch of baby faced clones with very awkward animations. It is very difficult to tell ... characters from one another to the point where hair colour or service numbers on uniforms end up being your go-to choice to figure out who is who.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 8/10
------------------------------------------

The show has a very nice scifi thematic soundtrack that does a great job elevating the action and the quiet moments. Character voice acting is solid across the board.


Story - 8/10
-------------

The show revolves around a major human spaceship that is one of many that were launched from Earth, after the planet was destroyed by an invading alien race. Now, a 1000 years later, the ship is still fleeing from the aliens who for some reason continue to give chase.

Despite 100 years of peace, the aliens have caught up again, and the survivors have to do all that they can to fight them off yet again.

To spearhead their defenses is a young man who suddenly appeared from the depths of the ship, having apparently been raised in isolation from the rest of the civilization.

The story is quite interesting, though some of the world building and nuance does seem rushed and shallow. The world of a 1000 year old spaceship containing a small human civilization with its own politics and secrets arguably deserved a lot more focus than it got.

Despite the massive spaceship housing hundreds of thousands of people, the story's focus is the main character and a small group of military academy trainees, and a few higher ranking individuals. That makes it hard to care for the humanity as a whole, because we spend all our time with such a small cast that do little of interest.


Characters - 6/10
---------------------

Characterization is pretty weak. Not helped by the 3D animations which makes it hard to distinguish individuals and makes everyone move awkwardly and emote in weird ways.

The protagonist is surprisingly under-developed, and his entire character honestly feels out of place in more ways than one. Raised by his apparent grandfather in the bowls of the ship, he was trained from a young age to be an expert at piloting an older, more robust version of the ship's defensive battle mech. That ends up being his only defining trait. Somehow, through-out his entire life, he was taught nothing else about anything, and has no personality beyond being a good pilot, coming off as nothing but an awkward, ignorant, teenage fool. Oh, and he likes to eat a bunch. Such character depth.

It is very hard to like the main character.

Secondary characters do feature some more interesting folks, like the captain in charge of the ship who has more than one ulterior motive and isn't beyond making hard choices while thinking up long term plans.

Our protagonist is also chased by a handful of female romance interests which does seem rather forced. These characters do receive some backstory fleshing out and have somewhat more developed personalities than the MC, but not by much.

A lot of the characters feel very flat in a world that should be anything but.

To make things worse, the world seems to be lacking in both children and older adults. Almost everyone seems to be either a teenager, or a young adult.

This creates a very weird environment where you can't help but to question why is this massive spaceship is being defended by a bunch of teenagers barely out of their diapers. They had 100 years of peace for a ship with hundreds of thousands of people, and the entire defense force consists of a few hundred pilots, most of whom seem to be barely experienced teenagers? Where are all the veterans? The old timers? Where are the new aspiring kids?

The show tunnel visions too hard on the protagonist and his immediate group of friends.

Also there's a walking, talking bear character for some reason. I don't get it.

Despite the weak characterization, and somewhat weird 3D, the production values make for a great spectacle in space battles and the story is interesting to make you want to keep watching. Trying to understand this scifi world as you watch aliens get blown up, is exciting.

The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent is a female power fantasy romance that has nice production values, but does very little with them. Taking as few risks as possible.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 7/10
-----------------------------------------------

There's a notable lack of action scenes which seems to have given more space for higher base art and animations, which are quite nice across the board, though not overly noteworthy.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
... ------------------------------------------

Nothing outstanding, just generally solid across the board.


Story - 5/10
-------------

The story is exactly what you'd expect from a power fantasy isekai that's made for women.

Our protagonist is a young woman working in an office. One day she gets teleported to a fantasy land as a saint that's supposed to help the kingdom fend off monsters.

That in itself is a pretty standard isekai formula. But unlike those focused for a male audience, in this story there are no women crowding the hero, but instead countless men crowding the heroine. In fact, I dare say they go way more overboard with it than in male fantasies. There's an insane lack of other women. Every single notable character is a pretty man. There are no women except servants, and a "rival" basically. Even the heroine in the story is taken aback by how there's a pretty guy around every corner, all vying for her attention. Guess the notion of having girl friends is overrated in female power fantasies.

The story itself goes nowhere. Our heroine is basically spending all day every day just slowly improving her special powers under the tutelage of an army of hot dudes. She has almost no ambitions or desires of any kind herself, just wanting to be a nice girl that helps others here and there, and that's about it.

The story really feels like a missed opportunity because the foundations are solid, but nothing really happens except endless slice of life and very non-consequential political and nobility intrigue.


Characters - 5/10
---------------------

Our protagonist is a nice enough, competent woman, but her personality is all but non-existent. She has no real hobbies or interests, no real aspirations, deciding to latch onto the first pretty man that offers her a place in the new world and just rolls with it.

Similarly, the first hot dude to actually pursue her romantically is the one she automatically responds do, but in a very awkward manner as if she has never been in a relationship before. For a character that's supposed to be an adult, this is a tad weird. Why even make her to be an adult when she acts like a highschooler?

Secondary characters feature a whole army of pretty guys, all in their early 20's but already masters in their respective fields. Apparently everyone is a genius. All so that our heroine would be stuck in a perpetual state of mild confusion, surrounded by too many pretty faces, all of whom can be potential love interests.

There are no real villains or even proper antagonists of any kind. Nobody gets in our heroine's way, making it feel like nothing she does or does not do has any meaning.

The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent is a solid looking female power fantasy story, but does precious little with itself. The heroine isn't particularly interested in chasing power, the romance feels lackluster, there are no villains to fight against, and nothing really at stake.

But if you enjoy fantasy slice of life and want to watch a girl be granted immense power and be fawned over by a bunch of pretty guys, this will be the show for you.

7th Time Loop is a female power fantasy, featuring a popular theme of romancing royalty.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 7/10
-----------------------------------------------

The art and animations are quite good. As the show features primarily slice of life and dialogue, there's rarely much need for advanced animations, and the effort is spent on making basic stuff more appealing instead. Heavy focus is put on making the male characters attractive. In the few cases where there is some action, the animations are quite good also.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
... ------------------------------------------

Nothing outstanding, just generally solid across the board.


Story - 7/10
-------------

Female power fantasy is a rising niche in modern anime, and 7th loop does a better job at it than most.

Our protagonist is a young noble woman that ends up being cast out due to slander from rival parties. Having now lost her place in the world, she decides to pursue other dreams instead. Alas, that dream is cut short years later by a great war. However, losing her life causes her to simply travel back in time to the same moment of being cast out. Again, and again. Every time she pursues a different path in life, and every time ends up losing it in a similar way.

The show revolves around her latest loop where she finally ends up with the man responsible for her inevitable deaths. And thus begins her attempt of solving the mystery and realizing her dreams for good.

The story does a good job of setting up various challenges for our heroine that only become solvable thanks to her experiences in her prior lives. It is all very convenient, but it's believable enough.

The romance in the show is intended to be a notable focus, but does ultimately feel rather underdeveloped. There are moments where you're certain a break-point has been reached, only for things to then go backwards again. The main characters unfortunately lack much chemistry, so the romance never feels particularly endearing. Though I suppose not being the main demographic, I might simply lack the necessary mindset to appreciate it being done this way.

Ultimately the story does not properly resolve in these 12 episodes, which is rather unfortunate. We're left with far too many questions unanswered, with the romance itself arguably peaking many episodes earlier.


Characters - 7/10
---------------------

Our heroine is a young noble woman who has always been full of big dreams and desires, but her noble status relegated her to a lifetime duty of becoming a wife to royalty. Once that role was taken from her, however, she beings chasing her dreams one after another.

Being a female power fantasy, there's no surprise that our heroine is unnaturally amazing at everything she attempts. Within each of the 5 year time loops, she manages to master every career she attempts to a world class level, which is rather unbelievable, but nonetheless fun and interesting.

She also embodies the standard features of main characters in anime, such as the overwhelming desire to help people and do good.

Her character growth through-out the show is negligible but it can be excused by the fact that this is her 7th time loop, so most character changes have already taken place at that point.

Opposite of her is the dark, and stoic Prince she ends up in a romance with. As is standard with romance stories for women, the man is tall and unreasonably beautiful, while also being the greatest fighter in the world. Known for his brutality and cruelty, yet is also secretly kind, but also mysterious in many ways. The perfect "I'll figure him out", and "I'll tame him" type that women love to fantasize about.

Beyond those two, the cast of secondary characters is pretty short, but most are done well enough, fitting into the story quite nicely. Though one must comment on how every man is an unreasonably hot specimen featuring the greatest eyelashes in the world.

Total - 7/10

7th Time Loop is a nice female power fantasy show to help balance out the excessive amounts of male power fantasies released every season. Great for women who are tired of shows featuring fanservice filled female harems, and desire a more laid back romance with a "dark, tall, and handsome" prince.

Do be prepared to left hanging, as the show ends just as things start getting interesting.

Reborn as a Vending Machine has to have one of the most ridiculous premises of any Isekai out there, hell, probably out of all of anime. Yet... it's surprisingly decent entertainment.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 7/10
-----------------------------------------------

While not particularly noteworthy in any aspect, the art quality and detail is decent. Animations are unimpressive, but acceptable.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
... ------------------------------------------

Pretty standard quality stuff across the board.


Story - 7/10
-------------

By all accounts the story really isn't impressive, yet it's surprisingly stable in quality and doesn't try to be anything but a nice relaxing, ridiculous fantasy ride.

Our protagonist is a vending machine otaku, and as Truck-kun takes another victim, our hero is reborn into a fantasy world as one of his beloved vending machines. Before long he discovers he has some special abilities granted to him, but is otherwise nothing but a vending machine. Unable to move or speak anything but a few set phrases.

Despite the ridiculous premise, the story follows the formula of most fantasy isekai. Our hero finds new friends, uses his newly granted abilities to help them in unique ways, and slowly builds up their reputation in the fantasy world, tackling ever harder foes with his unique vending machine capabilities.

The show never stops being silly due to a damn vending machine being the main character, but outside of that, it's surprisingly "normal". There's lots of slice of life with our Vending Machine protagonist helping people by providing food, drink, accessories and all kinds of necessities. And there's some fantasy themed combat, where our vending machine uses all kinds of vending machine abilities to save the day.

Extra points can be given for the show's willingness to touch topics that are otherwise rarely mentioned. Namely scenes where our vending machine hero offers condoms and later tampons to the fantasy population to help with hygiene issues.

All in all, there are hardly any surprises, but what we get is solid and enjoyable.


Characters - 6/10
---------------------

Our protagonist is a rather non-descript young man. After being reborn as a vending machine he retains his mind, but is effectively an inanimate object incapable of properly conversing or emoting. Which makes us as viewers the only ones able to truly assess his personality through his inner thoughts. Those thoughts are fairly simple. He's a nice guy, a vending machine otaku that's apparently totally happy with his new situation, and decides to help anyone in any way that he can with his new powers.

Secondary characters feature a pretty standard selection of fantasy tropes. Though the secondary main character, a super-strength imbued young woman who first discovers our hero, is the one that gets the most screen time. Thanks to her high strength, she is able to carry our hero around and helps them interact with the world better. Before long, the two become good friends, and start looking out for one another.

All the characters are quite likeable, though there's hardly any depth to most of them.

We also get a few minor villains here and there, but there is no overarching grand plot, no great demon king to defeat. Just a vending machine relaxing in a fantasy world.

Total - 7/10

Reborn as a Vending Machine is utterly ridiculous in its premise, but underneath is a surprisingly decent fantasy isekai that's sure to appeal to most fans of the genre.

You may not walk away being impressed by anything in particular, but it's still a nice little show to relax to.

The New Gate is an utterly unimpressive video game isekai, yet is decent enough across the board to satisfy those who seek their regular dose of seasonal power fantasy.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 6/10
-----------------------------------------------

Art and detail is average, animations barely better than slideshows. Some magic effects are nice, most unimpressive.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
... ------------------------------------------

Pretty standard quality stuff. Unremarkable but thematically fitting short tunes during the show are nice.


Story - 5/10
-------------

There really isn't much of a one.

The story begins as a carbon copy of Sword Art Online, then does a minor twist and becomes a more standard power fantasy isekai.

Essentially, some crazy new VR MMO launched, players got stuck in it, one dude trained really hard and beat the final boss. Everyone got to log out, except him who ended up 500 years in the future.

Now, he explores the world trying to figure out what happened. And maybe get back to the real world. Maybe. He doesn't really care.

The show doesn't really do much anything. The protagonist just wanders about, meets some old allies, some new friends. Does a bunch of random fantasy stuff and pretty much treats the entire thing like a vacation.


Characters - 6/10
---------------------

Our protagonist is your average overpowered MC. Nice dude, competent, confident. Somewhat lacking knowledge and randomly way too cautious and easily surprised, but all in all, not particularly unlikeable.

Secondary cast is basically a small harem. The girls are nice, have distinct if one dimensional personalities.

Not much depth to any of the characters.

---

Total - 6/10

---

The New Gate is a forgettable show, but doesn't really do anything wrong per se. Just very mediocre across the board. If you're a fan of the genre, you will find literally nothing that's new or interesting in any way, shape, or form.

Give it a watch if you need your seasonal isekai fix, but don't expect much.

Sentai Daishikkaku is one of the more peculiar anime to come out in recent years. Sporting some pretty good production values, it's definitely a fun spectacle, though the story and worldbuilding are full of weird plot holes and nonsensical events and characters.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 8/10
-----------------------------------------------

Basic art isn't noteworthy, but the animations and special effects are pretty good. If nothing else, the show is flashy and fun to watch.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 8/10
... ------------------------------------------

Solid voice acting and a nice selection of original tracks makes for a very enjoyable experience.


Story - 4/10
-------------

While one of the more unique stories in recent history, the execution is all over the place.

The story follows a weak monster called D, who is part of a remnant of monsters left after a monster invasion of Earth. After being defeated, the monsters were forced to become actors in weekly showdowns against heroes, to continue fooling the rest of humanity. Our protagonist D is fed up and decides to infiltrate the heroes' organization instead and defeat them from within.

Certainly sounds interesting, but the setup is completely nonsensical.

What possible purpose can there be to have a bunch of weak monsters fight in weekly fake matches like it's some American wrestling league? And how in the world does the rest of the world just take it at face value? There's a huge hovering monster fortress above Japan that never does anything except send down a batch of random monsters to fight in a damn arena that sells tickets like it's some weekly football game? The whole planet just believes that every Sunday at the same time, the monsters "invade" the local Japanese arena and casually wait for the heroes to show up so that they can lose and then repeat the event next Sunday? The hell is that?

The premise is so utterly ridiculous that it completely derails the rest of the story.

How can one take anything even halfway seriously when the entire planet is apparently inhabited by complete morons?


Characters - 5/10
---------------------

Despite there being some fairly interesting characters, most of the cast are just a different flavour of stupid.

Most of the cast are "heroes" whose whole goal is to fight monsters, and it is something all aspiring recruits aim to become, despite it being utterly obvious that the weekly fake monster matches are indeed just fake nonsense.

How can any of the characters be taken seriously when they spout stuff like "I've looked up to the heroes all my life, that's why I've dedicated my life to becoming a hero", when the only monsters that exist on the whole planet are as weak as children, and only show up for a weekly Sunday roast. It's just so ludicrous. It makes every member of the cast seem like a complete idiot.

The only likeable and interesting characters are the villains. Though in most part that's because their motivations and psychological profile are simply mysterious. Trying to figure out why they are the way they are and do the things they do is the only really fascinating part about the show. And it's unfortunately rather unexplored.

---

Total - 6/10

---

Sentai Daishikkaku is certainly a very unique anime. But I find it hard to stomach the utter absurdity of its plot and characters. Their stupidity doesn't even pass as decent comedy.

Still, the fight scenes are numerous and the animations quite good. There's definitely fun to be had, but it's hard to get overly invested.

Kaijuu 8-gou is an impressive monster fighting spectacle that shares similarities with other great anime such as AoT and Chainsaw Man.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 9/10
-----------------------------------------------

The animation quality is absolutely top notch. One can only critique the somewhat simplistic character art quality in non-action scenes, but if that's the sacrifice for the animation to be top tier, I think most people are more than happy with it.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 9/10
... ------------------------------------------

Absolutely S tier banger of an OP and ED, and non-stop variety of bangers during the actual show. Add high quality voice acting and general sounds, and you'll definitely walk away with your ears pleased.


Story - 8/10
-------------

The story of Kaijuu 8 is not particularly innovative in itself, however it knows what it wants to do, it knows what people want, and it gives it to us.

The premise of the story is fairly similar to the likes of Attack on Titan and Chainsaw man.

The world is under regular attacks by monstrous entities known as the Kaijuu and have been for an untold time. Through-out history, humanity has learned to live with these natural disasters by developing ever more powerful weapons and an entire army of specialized soldiers who fight them.

Our protagonist ends up being infected by one of these monstrous beings and obtains their power for himself. Thus begins the story of them trying to do their job as part of said special forces, while hiding their disturbing secret.

While the obvious similarities with AoT are there, Kaijuu 8 has its own story and its own twists that make it stand out. While perhaps not as impressive as that of AoT, it's nonetheless extremely entertaining to watch. The world building is also quite interesting, even as they keep us mostly in the dark about the finer details.


Characters - 8/10
---------------------

Kaijuu 8 has quite a varied cast of interesting characters. Despite the short runtime, all the characters receive plenty of attention for their individual personalities to stand out, and basically none of them are one dimensional. Everybody has layers to their character, which makes it easy to care about them and cheer them on.

Protagonist Kafka is a fairly traditional hero type who has great empathy for others, while having some confidence issues and anxiety due to being older and less accomplished than his peers. Through-out the season he does find his footing, and is looking more prepared for the future. He also fills the niche of comedic relief through some of his incompetence at times.

Secondary characters feature colleagues and friends who are all distinct personalities. We have young and ambitious soldiers, we have prodigies under parental pressure to perform, we have those who value strength, those who value cooperation. The cast fills every major niche one could ask for.

There's even a very minor, very subtle romance angle that is never explored, but hinted at just enough to pique interest.

All the characters are quite likeable and makes you want to cheer and worry for them.

The villains remain quite mysterious, but very interesting. Their origins and motivations shrouded from our sight, but their actions tell us plenty as to why we should feel hostility towards them.

---

Total - 9/10

---

Kaijuu 8 is an amazing show that can stand proudly alongside other giants in the genre. It may not be the best, but it's easily good enough to stand out and captivate the audience with its solid story and characters, and top tier production values.

If you want to see a bunch of monsters get ground up into paste by a likeable cast of badass soldiers, this is the show to watch!

The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy is a fantasy story with interesting ideas and worldbuilding, but is ultimately let down by low production values and apparent rushing of the story.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 6/10
-----------------------------------------------

While far from terrible, the show lacks any notable animation quality. Action scenes are little better than slideshows and visual effects an absolute bare minimum. The base art and detail is quite solid though, making non-combat scenes quite enjoyable to watch.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
... ------------------------------------------

There aren't any notable tunes, but the voice acting and basic sounds are up to modern standards.


Story - 7/10
-------------

Even though it comes off as rushed, the story is more interesting than expected.

Our protagonist is a demon lord who was on the receiving end of the heroes' triumph. Despite admitting defeat, he decided to re-incarnate 1000 years later to get his revenge.

Now, while this isn't an original concept by any means, the story does become a lot more interesting when the world a 1000 years later is in many ways a hyper-scientific one, where natural magic has all but disappeared, and stories of demon lords and heroes can only be found in a few children's books.

What makes matters even more exciting, is the rather recent arrival of mysterious void creatures, that have strange similarities with creatures from a 1000 years ago.

Watching the protagonist re-incarnate into such an alien world and trying to uncover the secrets of the past 1000 years, is quite interesting.

The weak production values and only 12 episodes of content make the journey rather unimpressive, but at its core it is interesting and leaves you wishing they were able to do more.


Characters - 6/10
---------------------

The characters aren't particularly noteworthy, but they're likeable enough, and play their roles appropriately within the show.

Our protagonist is a re-incarnated demon lord, but alas ends up stuck in a 10 year old human body. This causes him to develop a degree of social anxiety, having long forgotten what a human body feels like or what interacting with humans is like. Still, he is very powerful and confident, and very skilled with his abilities to achieve his goals.

Secondary characters form a pretty cliche harem around the protagonist, though it's no more than them being some minor fanservice, and setting up some shota jokes. Individually they all have distinct personalities, and some even have some backstory to their names.

The villains are few and get little screen time, but are surprisingly interesting due to the 1000 year timeskip making their existence and motivations a mystery. One worth exploring. Alas, we're left mostly in the dark as the show ends before we discover much anything about anything.


---

Total - 6/10

---

The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy feels like a missed opportunity. In a world of countless mediocre fantasy isekai stories, this one could have been so much more. Alas, poor production values and mere 12 episodes is not enough to allow the solid core of the show to shine.

A fun little watch for fantasy fans, but ultimately not particularly memorable.

Wind Breaker is a contemporary highschool shounen that boasts very impressive production values, but doesn't pack much of a punch with its story or characters.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 9/10
-----------------------------------------------

Absolutely top notch stuff. The art and details is great, the fight scenes really well choreographed and animated. The punches feel weighty, blood will spurt, and people make a nice thump when slammed to the ground. Good stuff all around.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 9/10
... ------------------------------------------

High quality voice acting aside, the show has a bunch of great, hype up combat music and emotional tracks, hitting just the right notes for every moment. Can hardly ask for more.


Story - 6/10
-------------

What is the story, really? What exactly is the world building?

Wind Breaker is a story that features a protagonist about whom we know little else other than that their peculiar appearance has caused them to live a life full of bullying and straight up harassment, and in response, they decided to use their fists to do the talking.

And somehow he finds himself moving to a new city, and a new school. A city known for gangs and constant fighting. With a school run by a gang. Apparently. His goal - to become the top dog in the school gang and... I guess earn respect through that.

It is honestly very unclear what is going on exactly. Our protagonist seems to have no parents, no home (nor does anyone else), and yet somehow they "moved" to a new city and joined a new highschool - which btw seems to have no teachers and is just some old school building. Furthermore, for some reason 99.99% of the school's population are guys, with only one woman.

The city apparently also has no police, because the streets are completely ruled by gangs. Gangs who apparently seem to all be teenagers. And hierarchy is purely determined by ones ability to street-fight.

Worldbuilding is quite nonsensical.

The story also doesn't really aim to do much anything beyond our protagonist discovering the value of friends, hanging out in a highschool. And that's about it.

As a whole, the general setup is very reminiscent of Tokyo Revengers, minus the supernatural stuff.


Characters - 7/10
---------------------

Despite the nonsensical story and worldbuilding, the characters are pretty fun.

The protagonist is a confident and capable fighter, but a lifetime of harassment has left them socially awkward. They do seem to grow during the season, which is a good sign.

There are also a lot of secondary characters, and where as most are just different flavours of street-fighters, there are a few that get some screentime and get their backstories fleshed out a bit more.

It's a fun bunch, but kinda one dimensional.


---

Total - 8/10

---

Wind Breaker production values are good enough to make it an enjoyable experience for anyone into battle shounen stuff, though the actual story, worldbuilding and characters left to be desired.

Still, sometimes simpler is better, and it can be fun just to enjoy the highschool slice of life with a good amount of face bashing.

Lvl 2 cheat skill, nonsense, whatever... is a fantasy isekai that manages to be about as unimaginative as humanly possible. The production values are decent, but it's hard to call this anime anything but really low quality fast food. Only really watchable for the nice fanservice harem girls.


Animation / Art / General Visuals - 7/10
-----------------------------------------------

Surprisingly decent. Nothing particularly noteworthy, but the art is nice and scenes flow properly.


Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
... ------------------------------------------

Standard anime fare.


Story - 4/10
-------------

Isekai. For a change, it's a fantasy to fantasy isekai. With our protagonist being transported from one fantastical universe to a fairly similar, but still a different one. Why? Who knows. Completely unnecessary gimmick.

Anyways, our protagonist is some random dude who gets summoned to be a hero in another world, but he apparently has terrible stats and is thus kicked out of the king's castle and told to go and die in some forest. However, for some reason, as he fights off some low level slimes and levels up, he goes from lvl 1 to level infinite. Turning from a regular human to a literal god with literally unlimited powers.

The story beyond that involves our hero being dumb, unaware that his reality altering powers are unnatural. Until he eventually figures out he's kinda ridiculous.

As he tries to mind his own business he rapidly amasses a whole army of big titty women, because apparently literally every other human he comes into contact with is a woman. A most blatant of all blatant harem gatherings.

There's some story about the demon king wreaking havoc and all that, but our protagonist is a literal god, so nothing matters, so he just chills with slice of life, occasionally destroying everyone, and then going back to his harem.

It's pretty bad.


Characters - 6/10
---------------------

The protagonist is a painfully boring, generic nice guy with barely any brain cells, as he can't seem to figure out he's a literal god for multiple episodes.

Secondary characters basically feature a bunch of hot women, who despite the blatant harem fanservice, are actually nice and even funny, and probably the only reason to even watch this show at all.

Total - 6/10

Cheat skill, lvl 2, bla-bla something title, is a decently enough looking and sounding show, but there's no reason to watch it other for the fan service girls, who are cute and funny.
