This is one of the shows I was particularly looking forward to this season, both the Manga and Light Novel are truly a great reads but they're not quite translated well into this adaptation. This stems from how they portray the main character, the rest of the story is nothing to write home about even in the Manga or Light Novel, but the main character Leon is what makes it an entertaining read. He's the perfect blend between a Naofumi(Shield Hero) who hates the world and situation he's put in, but is played as more of a Kazuma-like(Konosuba) character. It makes for a pragmatic asshole ... type character that you can't help but root for, unfortunately in the anime a lot of the little things that help build up that personality have been cut out, leaving him feeling very hollow compared to his Manga and Light Novel counterparts. Since how his character is written is honestly the only stand out thing from the source material which wasn't properly adapted, this ends up being pretty mediocre all around.
