A fun isekai filled with tropes, tons of comedy from start to finish, and great facedesking moments to twist the plot. The story starts off with our hero of another world waking up from a 17 year coma, returning with his memories and abilities intact. It somewhat bends the rule of an isekai, as his "main" body was still on earth, but his mind was elsewhere. Let's play along here.
While the beginning started off with a sad note, everything that comes after that is sunshine and rainbows. Here we get the uncle and nephew duo, trying to get used to modern everday life while
...
sprinkling magic here and there. IRL technology has grown fast over the past few years, and here we get bored of it just like the nephew, and want magic in our life.
STORY
Its not groundbreaking, while still technically an isekai, the hero does return, with his abilities. It has been done so many times before especially with up and coming titles (isekai is my guilty pleasure BTW). What sets it differently is all of that is skipped, and instead we go through the recovery phase.
The hero can and will use magic every now and again, which sends the nephew on a glee spree. In return they start living together trying to get used to the modern world. As for the comedy, its all up in the air. Its nice to see new jokes being thrown around instead of the same old.
I am glad I have not heard of major issues (like lawsuits) targeting them for using real nsmes.
ART
Very hard to judge the art here, it does not fit the genre. Everything felt dark, while the entire show was lighthearted. The design also felt pretty old school, probably to match the manga. It does make it hard to believe it is a 2022 anime. When things do get dicey, we only catch a glimpse of a modern shounen. End of the line was, it was a still chillaxing slice of life for the most part.
SOUND
Surprisingly done well. The opening and ending were choreographed nicely with the scenes. The voice acting, well done. we can easily tell they had a blast recording it. And surprisingly well too without many noticeable mismatch mouths.
CHARACTER
Ah the cast, so many characters with their own quirks, its hard to hate them all. Most will probably find at least 1 they like. As for me I just love them all for their shenanigans. There were 2 super minor characters that might have been better left out, as they barely got any screen time.
ENJOYMENT
I seriously loved this show. Unlike a ton of other comedy series out there, this had more than enough gas from start to finish. What we thought might have happened, was done in another manner. Great comedy series, the author has a ton of funnies up his sleeves. Will definitely hope for a 2nd season.

Some say Power Rangers originated from Japan, all we know is he's called the Red Ranger. This manga reinvents the wheel, and overdosing everything with NOS. While others may see this and run away, some may see the joy of an over the top cringe and have a good time.
From the overused isekai tropes, to overpowered (OP) main characters (MC) cringe, and a hint nakama power cheese, this is a recipe for a train wreck. This is a glorious train wreck, I would dare you to take a bite. With so many isekai anime out there, this is a hidden gem and deserves a
...
season.
STORY
The story is a simple isekai, save the other world, while trying get back. The Red Ranger, as powerful as he is, is what many have done before, an OP MC thrown in to another world where magic and swords are the norm. Right off the bat, he breaks off from the norm, hilarity ensues.
The MCs are all powerful in their own right, its just the Red Ranger is an anomaly. Just after the final battle on Earth, Red dies and is transferred to an everyday magical fantasy planet. As the story continues, we find some mysteries, legends of previous Rangers, along with their foes.
ART
Very reminiscent of a more simpler times, somewhat of low poly simplicity, soothing to the eyes, til a battle ensues. We get to see some shiny explosions, cringey move naming, and bad guys shaming. While I am not an imaginative manga reader, I can only hope it does get an anime adaption. Would be awesome if a top tier studio can catch wind of this.
CHARACTER
The main party consists of our four heroes: a dense Ranger, a stubborn Hero, a herpy Mage and a derpy Princess. The three inhabitants of the world are powerful, but are nothing compared to Red's Nakama Power. The interactions between them are a slice of life sweetroll, so many comedic moments where the author keeps the comedy new while keeping some running gags.
ENJOYMENT
I can honestly say I am enjoying this manga. I would even bet it can be on par with some of the top tier comedy series. And I can definitely say this can revive some hope for isekais as a whole. It needs a chance at an anime adaption. I am sure most kids grew up with some kind of Power Rangers in their lives, let us experience a beloved memory, just with a ton of comedy thrown in.

I will set this clear just once, this anime does not have incest. It does have overly gross close siblings.
Isekai One Turn Kill Neesan (IOTKN) is actually a very fun anime to watch, I have honestly enjoyed it from start to finish. Many animes tagged with comedy often run out of gas mid season, or overly use the same patterns, and are often out of gas, with a flat tire, and a broken record on top. This anime does nicely trying out new routines with different characters, and does so refreshingly that the comedy does not seem dry.
Sigh, yet another isekai, my guilty pleasure,
...
but with a trending twist. Truck kun makes his cameo here and sends Ikusaba Asahi to another world. He did save a life, so it seems the big guys upstairs decided to reward him by sending Asahi to a once in a lifetime event to another world. As an otaku, none of this was too foreign, but he did have a major problem from the start, he was far weaker than that world's standard. When he cried for help, his sister Maya somehow got summoned and thus begins their life together.
STORY
The story is simple, we see the lives of Asahi and Maya Ikusaba in another world. There is a strange twist of Asahi still being alive on Earth, but somehow Maya got summoned after head banging the wall, and we can probably guessed, she was also in a coma. Meh, this is a comedy anime, no need for our thinking caps.
The pacing was very good from my point of view. It was mainly a slice of life series, introducing new characters with their own unique personalities, and bringing them up from time to time. There is no set objective like defeating The Demon Lord, creating a reincarnators' paradise, establishing the dominance of modern warfare etc, just something to chillax to. All we get is a town and the surrounding areas.
At the end of the day Asahi, though weak as he is, actually improved bit by bit. We also get to see Maya also letting Asahi roam more free, only providing help as needed. In this world, falsifying your power leads to capital punishment, Asahi is tryin to level up. There is another character who realizes that he is weak, but does not spoil it for everyone else. Who knows, Asahi may come clean one day, and his friends still accept him for what he is worth.
ART
Pretty much what we should be expecting from series these days. Uniquely enough characters to tell them apart. Some pretty backgrounds to look at. A hint of battle scenes, although it was very lacking, but no problem since this is mainly a comedy. We do get to see lots of different facial emotions to not feel too bland on all of the characters.
SOUND
The cast had fun with this, anyone can tell they all tried to stay within their characters while also trying to have fun bursting. If cast members had that much fun, we watchers can also get in on the action. All of the OP and ED were nicely done to fit with the series. One tells us about their time in this world, while the other tells a slight prequel.
CHARACTER
A fun bag of characters join in on the adventure; We get your friendly neighborhood guild clerk to guide Asahi. A high ranking demon wanting to see what it is like as an average human. A nun with an unholy tendency to attract trouble. A princess knight with brawns for brains, and her maid to sometimes fix things, and other times make them worse. They all have their quirks and often bring a new refreshing twist to the comedy.
ENJOYMENT
This is my cup of coffee. Sure I do agree it is at most a mid tier anime, hell probably also a mid tier isekai. But, it does have a lot of comedy from start til end. The ending was well made, with Maya acknowledging Asahi's growth. If only most people can drop out what they know about anime and be more like Maya, comparing Asahi from the start of the show til the end, I guess this will be higher up in the ranks.
