Synopsis

Having stood out from others most of her life due to her exceptional character, Misato Kurihara has lived without neither the joy of having close friends nor the experience of having a regular life. However, after a sudden death, she was transported to a divine realm to be reincarnated—and granted one wish to top it off. Thinking about the ordinary life that she had always wanted, she wished to be born as a normal person, with abilities that are average for the world she will resurrect in.

Reborn as Adele von Ascham—the daughter of a noble—she possesses magic powers completely exceeding what one would label average. Still desiring to carry out the life she wanted, she leaves her home and enrolls at a hunter school in a faraway kingdom using "Mile" as an alias. However, try as she might to hide her overpowering potential, attaining her goal will be difficult—especially when facing against the crazy situations that ensue!

Watashi, Nouryoku wa Heikinchi de tte Itta yo ne!" is an isekai that fully embraces its charm, comedy, and overpowered protagonist in the best possible way. It starts with a wish to live a normal life — and turns that into a hilarious and heartwarming adventure where nothing goes quite as planned.

The strength of this anime lies in its balance: it’s cute but not shallow, action-packed but not overwhelming, and funny without losing emotional depth. The friendships between the characters are genuine and enjoyable, giving the show a strong emotional core amid the jokes and magical antics.

Visually, it's colorful and expressive, with a light art ...

Mixed Feelings
The anime is not bad in itself, but comparing it with other animes of its season then you could say that it is
a not so average isekai with little touches of CGDCT. Still, the aspect of the tenderness and the regretful emotional scenes is something I can highlight about this anime.

As you read, the anime adaptation has skipped the arc of the academy where "Adele" was, which is considered important to empathize with our protagonist and understand her even better, but personally, it is not that difficult to connect. with her and the main group of friends she has, they are just different personalities and ...

I won't spoil anything major, I will say that yes it does adapt that chapter, this is 12 episodes long, and if you read the wn/ln you know what that chapter is, that should tell you everything you need to know for pacing.

Now, I don't know if what I read was the ln or the wn, I personally don't care, what I read was far FAR better than this, and I choose to blame the animation studio deciding that instead of a young adult level story, they need to to make it appeal to the kindergarten level, and from there make up a bunch ...
