Spoiler

Spoiler alert!

My summary in case the synopsis does not mention enough to interest you.

This main character (MC) I suspect is from the modern world (never really mention, only my guess) that was reborn into the continent of Stern, the world there is ending as the magic elements in the air is almost gone, and there is only one magician left in the world to fight against the dark forces which is destroying the world.

The MC had been there living for 17 years and is the only magician left, but he is busy at the magic tower "protecting" the library and the people of ... the town. A fireball from heaven made him awaken in the era of the prosperous magic, 3000 years ago. He became a student at the Magic Academy and he is famed for being the weakest.

So the story will go on to show how he starts to strengthen himself slowly by cultivation and constant training, make potions, go to the training area, go to the beast forest to fight beasts to get resources to train. Along the way he will help his classmates, teachers and other people.

The ladies in this anime are not annoying, unlike many other similar cultivation chinese anime. There is the the teacher that act 任性 (capricious) but I think it's adorable, the class monitor that tries to woo the main lead but is annoyed at his denseness and can be jealous when other girls show their fondness for him, and the noble city mayor's daughter that knows how to 撒娇 and is quite lively.

Main lead can be arrogant but he knows he can handle things. He is quite a cultivation training manic and is quite focus about it, not wanting the female attention.

He is quite rude and arrogant to many old and powerful men like the head of the potion association and the school headmaster as he thinks they are quite dumb to not know the basics and have so many easy questions that they do not know the answers to. He do spend time to enlighten them and the old men are quite eager and humble to accept his vast knowledge.

Is a 爽 anime with no bad scenerio.

A relaxing and cool anime to pass the time. Worth a watch.

Wan Jie Fa Shen Review

God of Ten thousand realms is a reincarnated-cultivation donghua about a prestigious Wizard/God who succumbs to the fate of an asteroid in his previous life, where being a mage is rare due to cultivation resource exhaustion. He is reincarnated 3000 years into the past to Ye Xuan, a trash magician character of Sith Magic academy. As all reincarnation-cultivation manhua/donghua, his fate is to regain power at a fast rate and prevent tragedies that follow in the future. Along the road of his cultivation, Ye Xuan meets several characters in which he assists in cultivation and enlightenment thus gathering his allies.

This ... donghua would have been more interesting if this first season didn't focus on small-fry characters like the Lin family and their grudge. Ye Xuan, who is more than capable of anything despite being realms lower than all his peers could have wiped the Lin Family from the map but it's decided that he lays low and endures the grudge which ends up being the main narrative of his first season. The arcs are expected of Chinese cultivation but it would have been more entertaining watching MC fight than watching side characters fight and fail, the story also has a lot of running scenes which uses a lot of the screen time ( can be skipped easily for entertainment )

The main character design is bad. His clothes are typical of eastern style MMORPG adventurer clothing. For a cultivation series, it would have been better to dress MC in a more fluent design which could have contributed to his character development arcs in the Magic guild's training room or when he went to refine his physical strength upon first visiting the Magic Academy's potion refinement facilities. The story lacks development which is why the characters feel empty and distant in terms of personality.

The art/animation quality is substandard which suggests this is production is of lower value than most donghua. Every few episodes it feels like I'm watching a Mafia City advert with how the characters walk and talk. Even more so, when they turn around and walk away (such as the case when Ye Xuan first meets with the Manager and President of the Magic Guild) it feels like I'm watching a 2005 Barbie film with low poly models and bad character rigging.
The Audio is another problem, for some reason the sound designers believe it's okay to use a stock sad music from Audio Library and play it every time the mood gets serious. It was very disturbing listening to the audio, even the door sounds are unnatural.

In terms of enjoyment and overall opinion, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. However, the story is at least tolerable for me to complete it and rate it 6/10 overall. I look forward to a season 2 with hopes this series improves.
