I liked this show for the following:
- Medieval fantasy setting
- No characters seem truly OP yet, all have a weakness and go through trouble
- MC has an interesting backstory
- Large-scale battles, tactics, kingdoms
- Human/demon interactions are interesting
- MC has a secret identity

I disliked this show for the following:
- Harem-like aspects (to be fair one is a pig-demon-man, though)
... - Ending was weak... I actually didn't realize what I watched last week was in fact the final episode 12 of the season
- Fairly predictable plot from episode to episode
- MC teleporting around so often, it sacrifices the journey/adventure of traveling in this world, all to increase the pacing of events
- MC's secret identity turns out to be not-so-secret as time goes on
- Some of the animation is bad at times, like for the mobs
- MC has not been put through enough of an ordeal yet, never really felt worried for him personally, but his troops/army/etc sure

If 5/10 means 50% like and 50% dislike, this is 7/10. I like the setting a lot, I have gripes about some characters, but overall I enjoyed it.

Lately it seems people are systematically review-nuking anything involving fantasy... I get that there is just too much, but you should always watch the first episode of a show if you think it seems interesting... and decide for yourself. Don't rely on the rating number or what other people think. If someone truly hates a show, they would drop it and not finish it! To finish a show means, by definition, that person found the show watchable, or they don't value their own time. The only consideration after that is whether or not you enjoyed it. It is very much NOT fashionable right now to admit enjoying fantasy or isekai.
