This show is so bad that it’s made me climb out of my swamp-ass-infested gaming chair out of pure testosterone-fuelled rage just to write a review, which is something I don’t normally do.
——— Story: 2/10 ———
The only reason this isn’t getting a 1/10 is because there is some semblance of a story, and I say this out of pure generosity because the string risking life and limb to keep this narrative intact is incredibly thin. It introduces itself as a clear parody of an isekai, and it’s all downhill from there. Countless plot holes, no clear objective to the main story, and multiple sub-stories
...
are just some of the issues. The worst part is that nothing that happens in the story matters. An antagonist shows up? Not to worry, dear viewer, don’t waste your time getting invested in the antagonist’s character or even remembering their name. Our trusty MC will kill them in the most anticlimactic way possible before their voice actor has time to wonder if the quick paycheck was worth having their name attached to this project. I’m not even kidding when I say that outside the main characters that keep the plot going, a character is lucky to live past the same episode they’re introduced. It all finally wraps up in another anticlimactic way that you’re numb to by the end of the series. Also, there’s some mecha stuff that I forgot existed in the story until they were shown again in the last ep.
——— Characters: 3/10 ———
In terms of the MC, you’re getting exactly what you came for: an OP giga chad that has never and will never come close to losing EVER. PERIOD. I’m not saying that kind of MC can’t be fun, but here it just flops for me because he makes everything that happens in the story pointless. Like I mentioned, there is no reason to care about any antagonist because as soon as they pose a threat to the MC they die, which by extension, makes it difficult to care about the plot as a whole. The MC is also pretty two-dimensional outside of a backstory they interject with occasionally, which is fine I guess. Everyone else is generic af and plays into some kind of lazy trope. Also, get ready to be bombarded with a million names almost constantly, but if you’re anything like me, don’t bother remembering them because chances are they either matter very little to the story or will die in a few scenes anyway. I swear to god, one episode in particular hits you with at least a dozen names in the span of five minutes.
——— Animation: 5/10 ———
There really isn’t anything much to say here. Frames are in fact playing in rapid succession to create the illusion of motion. The animation/art is just the safe, modern anime style you’re probably used to watching. Nothing bad, but also nothing great. It serves its purpose.
——— Sound: 5/10 ———
Just like the animation, there really isn’t anything noteworthy in this department. The op is fine, although completely forgettable imo and there’s no part of the ost that didn’t just fade into the background. Again, nothing bad but also nothing great. It serves its purpose.
——— Overall enjoyment: 4/10 ———
I picked up this show because it sounded up my alley, but man I can’t be more disappointed. The best thing I can say about this show is that, although very scarcely, it randomly made me chuckle with a gag I wasn’t expecting, probably due to the fact that I lost all ability to expect anything from this show somewhere after the first couple of episodes.
——— Do I recommend watching? ———
I don’t recommend watching this anime if you’re looking for a show that begs at least a handful of brain cells from the audience. If you want something that just barely surpasses children’s YouTube content in terms of narrative and creative quality, you could probably do worse.
