The Fantasia Bunko Thanksgiving Festival 2023 event announced a new anime project for Isekai de Cheat Skill wo Te ni Shita Ore wa, Genjitsu Sekai wo mo Musou Suru: Level Up wa Jinsei wo Kaeta (I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World and Became Unrivaled in The Real World, Too) on Saturday. Original illustrator Rein Kuwashima drew an illustration to celebrate the announcement (pictured right).

The first television anime produced by Millepensee aired in 13 episodes in Spring 2023. Crunchyroll streamed the anime with subtitles and later an English dub.

The anime series adapts Miku's isekai fantasy light novel—also known as Iseleve—which they began penning on the Kakuyomu website in March 2017, approximately three years after launching Shinka no Mi: Shiranai Uchi ni Kachigumi Jinsei (The Fruit of Evolution: Before I Knew It, My Life Had It Made!). Kadokawa began releasing the series with illustrations by Rein Kuwashima under its Fantasia Bunko imprint in December 2018 and published the 14th volume on June 20. Iseleve has a cumulative 3 million copies of its volumes in print, including digital editions.

Kazuomi Minatogawa (M3: Sono Kuroki Hagane) began drawing a manga adaptation on the Web DenPlay Comic website in December 2019. Kadokawa released the fifth volume on August 25.

Yen Press licensed both the light novel and manga in English in September 2021 and released the third volume of each on August 22 and April 18, respectively. The fourth light novel and manga volume is planned for a December 12 release.

I fkin called it. It seems like nowadays the worse the Isekai is, the higher chances there are of it receiving a sequel. They are quite literally failing upwards.
Spirit Chronicles, Gorilla Isekai, Smartphone Isekai and now this. I think Japanese audience is to blame for having no standards.

I would maybe watch it. I liked the first season despite the flaws. A lot of people didnt appreciate it because they kept trying to measure it as a fantasy action series which it was bad at, not by what it really has a vibe of a harem and borderline iyashikei with a lot of school life stuff. As for the CG it actually did a good job at using dark scenes as a way to hide some of the flaws of what CG looks like so that wasnt actually that bad most the time just had some awkward looking scenes.

That means Japan is still based unlike those outsiders who keep whining everytime a generic isekai has a new anime project.

Is it any wonder? It will be a cheap anime that they will make by spending $50 per episode.

Who even wanted this? How did this absolute shit clusterfuck of a series even get a second season? Ugh. I usually try to stick around even if I gave the series a 1 but this is one of those cases where I have to say that it is just too much.

@Ionliosite2 it was the #1 selling light novel series in Japan once the anime aired. The views on Crunchyroll were insane beating even Re Zero. And they didn't put much marketing into it. Of course it isn't DAL levels of financial success for Fantasia Bunko so time will tell if it gets a 3rd season.

It also resonates with a lot of the audience since a good chunk are either overweight, short, bullied, struggled to get girls.

@icefirestone23 That's genuinely shocking given how utterly predictable the story beats are down to calling out lines before they're even said. I enjoyed the show personally, but I'd much prefer more of a show like My Isekai Life which at least had likable side-characters and not these Ken doll clones.

@icefirestone23 Nowadays it feels it’s easier for women to get other women than men, despite there being fewer lesbians. The struggle for men finding quality women (aka not easy women) is real.

@Andr0o yeah no one expected it to be a success. Fantasia Bunko banked a ton on Spy Classroom but that kind of flopped, especially in the bd department.

@Animillion women are more attracted to other women and dogs than most men. Which is why I enjoy Gundam anime since you don't think about the women in gundam of the mechs. Until the yuri fandom hijacked the mecha fandom after WFM

Actually, I have another more serious reason for being single, so I’d rather you not come after me for no reason. I’m just saying that from what I’ve seen, guys have to try sooo much harder to find a partner than a girl does. Whether it be at university, work, or in friend group, it’s been a common factor.

From their perspective, there appears to be different levels of trash. One is junk food, aka this isekai, while it seems the yuri series are bound for the landfill.

@Piromysl

Gorilla Isekai and Cheat Skill In Another World have the same author~

I heard from other LN readers that Cheat Skill In Another World goes in a different direction after Volume 9 but I have not read it yet. It sold 1m copies in 2023

I knew a few LN readers who are caught up with Smartphone Isekai. The protagonist married 9 girls, making him the isekai protagonist with the second largest harem. Japan is releasing Volume 29 next week by the way.

Seirei Gensouki is the most complicated one because it is one of the numerous LNs that get a trashy adaptation. Well, Reign Of The Seven Spellblades from Summer 2023 is one of the victims of poor adaptation.
Seirei Gensouki LN and anime are 2 completely different fiction. The anime is OP isekai protagonist with huge harem while the LN is very tragic.
As of Seirei Gensouki LN Vol 23,

Among isekai LNs, I will tier Seirei Gensouki above Mushoku Tensei but below Sasaki And Peeps. I heard that Ascendence Of Bookworm is the greatest isekai but I have not read it yet.

Not sure if strange phrasing or otherwise but.

My two cents, you know an anime is bad when I finished the first season but I'm not going to watch whatever daheck this is.

I mean I didnt drop the first season, but if you gave me a choice to unwatch all of it I would
