The first part of this review is just going to be an explanation as to why I gave this show the score I did. The second part is gonna be a rant as to why it's a bad show and what should change (A lot of spoilers). Last part is gonna be a summary for those who want to skim through this.
Story 6/10
Don't you just love a cliche run of the mil Isekai show where the main is op and has a harem, cause I do. I love Isekai whether it be a masterpiece like Overlord or a dumpster fire like The Master of Ragnarok,
...
I think that they all are special. This show has some of the most cliche writing ever. Man is sent to another world, gets harem and has to defeat random enemy (Most of the time demon lord). But just like every other Isekai there is a twist. So, what is this twist you might ask? That is a very good question and despite me watching every episode I can come down to one. It's a cringy comedy that tries to be serious sometimes. Imagine if Konosuba had a genuine serious moment that was supposed to make you feel something, now imagine it having random characters that are boring (with a few exceptions). That is a summary of the story.
Art 3/10
OH MY GOD DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE ART. Remember when I said that it was a cringy show trying to be a serious show, well the art helps my case. It looks so bad, not ex-arm bad but you get the idea, a lot of the "serious" moments could have been a lot better if the animation could get me to take it seriously. It's like if a 6 year old came up to me with a picture of a frowny face and expected me to cry.
Sound 4/10
I don't pay much attention to sound but what I do pay attention to is the openings and endings. (You can just skip them, so you can skip this part). Opening was one of the worst ones I have ever seen in my life. No key information about the story just a bunch of flashes of the main heroine and the other main heroine, then at the very end of the opening two random fight scenes against people introduced at the end of the show. The ending is something I really don't care about much because it really isn't something that creators care about. It was still bad but I guess I care less about it.
Characters ): 4/10 (Slight spoilers)
Isekais always know how to legally plagiarize when it comes to characters. I mean the main character isn't even that interesting. Main heroine is, how do I put this, a literal monkey. So this man fell in love with a monkey. Second main heroine a.k.a Altria a.k.a pointless isn't even really needed in the story. They could've saved three or four episodes if they didn't have her which could've made the story a lot more interesting considering the ending, but more on the later. We also have a donkey, a warrior/valkyrie, and a catgirl assassin. The most interesting characters were probably the catgirl and the valkyrie since they actually have something that relates to politics. The stupidest character has to be Altria. We spent three or four episodes on her just for her to become a girl in the MC's harem. They could've spent those episodes trying to focus on the main problem at hand, or even using it to do some world building. Not saying she's the only pointless one, every single character is pointless, even the MC, (except the classmates I guess) I'm just saying that I found some of them interesting. The characters only contribute to the shows cringy comedy aspect instead of focusing on something that we might find interesting. Then we have the side characters which are a very sad excuse of comedy. You can tell that the creator thought that the side characters were funny and unique. In the end though they were very special, mentally that is.
Enjoyment 7/10
At the end of the day nothing else matters except for our enjoyment. Despite it being a cringy show with all its flaws, I still enjoyed it. I could have been so much better but in the end, we got what we got and there is no changing it. I do not recommend this show unless you are a higher form of being, such as myself, who can fully grasp the complexity and intelligence put into the art form that is known as Isekai. Honestly though, if I watched this show without the weekly break, I probably wouldn't be able to finish it.
THE RANT (Heavy spoilers, but you're not gonna watch anyway)
Alright now that were done with all the vegetables, we can finally get down to the meat and potatoes. So first off, what was that introduction. God comes over the intercom saying I'm gonna transfer you to another world so pair up. MC is getting bullied randomly as this is happening. Keep in mind this is only the first 2 minutes of the show, so I feel no empathy or sympathy for this man. It would have been so much cooler if they showed his daily life and show why he was getting bullied (besides being fat). Second what's the deal with him falling in love with a monkey who then becomes a women. Would have been a better choice to introduce her as an adventurer who saves him from the monkeys. You might be thinking, "What about the random sheep that's there for 5 minutes and never shows up again," and to that I say, what sheep. Third, GET RID OF ALTRIA she is so pointless. We literally spend a whole episode with her running around trying to figure out she's in love. WHYYYY though. That precious time could be spent on something like world building or information gathering. Last key problem, WHY DID YOU WAIT TILL THE VERY END TO ADRESS THE PROBLEM. It took twelve episodes for this man to finally go see his friends and hopefully save them. Oh wait, no it didn't cause the interaction didn't happen yet. At the very end of the story when he can finally meet his classmates and we can have an explanation as to what may be going on, the show ends. This show will probably never get a second season cause of how stupid this show is.
Summarize this all up don't watch the show, or do, I really don't care but just keep in mind that this is another Isekai. Average story, bad art, bad sound, annoying characters. Still, I enjoyed it, so I gave it a six. Still kinda hoping for a second season (Spoiler) cause I love seeing Isekais with a school in them.
(This is my first review, sorry if it's bad)

Isekais are like a dime a dozen these days. They truly are, and in most cases, you may either be tired of them, or just hope it's an interesting enough show, to be passable and enjoyable, so that you're not wasting your time, and eye rolling at it all. Most things just have to click in place for it all to work. Which is something that this show can do, but it also can not do at the same time.
I've seen the top reviewer so far at this stage as I am writing this, say it gives the vibe of Arifureta. When that couldn't be ... Dec 15, 2021
First time ive decided to write a review because everyone obviously missed the point.
TL;DR Its a great silly light hearted parody of the overmilked genre, people expecting it to be a serious isekai with lore missing the point lead to bad reviews. So to the actual review: The fruit of evolution is your generic isekai about a bullied student that gets isekaid with all his classmates to another world. Except only he teleported far far away from civilization. Our MC is optimistic, kind, OP and dense. The whole story is dumb but thats the beauty of it. Its a parody making fun of anime clichés and the ... Dec 7, 2021
I'm gonna leave a really short review.
Screw those people who says "Oh the story is generic" "Oh the characters are dumb" "Oh the show has hit the bottom because the story has no depth" "Oh the show has a horrible set-up" "This is not realistic at all, how can..." Dude, screw these people man this show is clearly not meant to have any depth in storyline or even character development that makes you attached to them. It's a fucking anime, an Isekai, a fantasy themed story. Please don't ask for a realistic story FFS... You can literally just enjoy the show by having low expectations and ... Nov 2, 2021
The Plot is good, but the execution is horrible. Animation is bad, VAs are bad, the characters are horrible, your typical super nice, op, dumb and naive mc, the other characters are pretty bad too. Overall the show is pretty bad, the source material wasn't the best to start with but i believe the anime managed to make it even worse. There can be some funny skits but you get at most 2 per episode. Wouldn't recommend unless you're only looking for the plot.
The plot is your generic isekai plot, where the mc gets extremely powerful right of the bat. He then starts to make ... Nov 22, 2021
For some it may not be immediately obvious, but this is a parody of the isekai genre. All of the tropes you commonly see are dialed up to 11.Every time something SUPER CRAZY happens, it's met with gaping mouth shock cuts. It is intentionally absurd.
Seiichi getting skills for doing nothing is making fun of how isekai protagonists always seem to get busted skills right as they need them. His power scaling from pipsqueak to world's strongest in a day is making fun of typical power fantasy. The way devoted animals keep turning into hot girls is a jab at how isekai protagonists have women sometimes literally falling ... Jun 18, 2022
I won't lie, this anime is pretty trashy. It's a typical ecchi harem isekai, but man, it made me laugh a lot. It's bad but in a good way. A lot of the developments are so dumb that they make my brain hurt. The show is very self aware and knows that it's trash but makes the most out of it; pretty much just about every moment of the show is excellent meme material. Overall it wouldn't win any awards but as long as you keep an open mind and don't take it too seriously (or actually, don't take it seriously at all), it's a

Jan 28, 2023
just wanna say like.. i love this show's attitude about polyamory that mostly comes up in episode 6. sets it apart from other op af mc stupid isekai. i also laughed a lot. 9 is probably overrating the show but it made me happy.
i'm really kinda excited to see what they did with the next season because it's hard for him to get more insanely op than he already is in ep 12, but i guess he has to go fix things for the rest of the class. idk, i fell off this by accident while it was running, and knowing a new season ... Dec 20, 2021
So with total honesty if you want to watch an isekai like this you might as well go and watch Arifureta as this seems like the more watered down version.
With that out of the way, this anime was not the best but it also could have been much worse. Basically like most isekai anime, the main character is well... isekai'd obviously as well as the rest of his class. After being isekai'd he becomes insanely powerful and like I said basically follows the plot of Arifureta from there on. If you like some waifus without much character development then definitely watch Shinka no Mi. Now ... Jun 4, 2022
Not well done. Not at all. Characters... meh. The animation, terrible(much like my grammar). The plot, unique, but lame. First couple episodes were okay- first episode was actually GOOD, but then it got so much worse.
The main character is so annoying and lame, like bro. It feels like some terrible author came up with him. Like the author/writer of the anime didn't even try. I won't say the original is bad or the author isn't talented as I've not read the original but the anime... no. If you're really bored, I guess you MIGHT be able to watch it, barely, but yeah. Not my favorite ... Apr 4, 2022
*minor spoilers ahead*
This is the probably the most ridiculous and stupid show I've ever watched. Don't expect any story because the one thing that should have a major story driver, the MC reuniting with his classmates, seems to have been saved for season 2. The MC is so ridiculously OP that absolutely nothing can touch him. I don't personally have a problem with OP characters, but Seiichi's skills literally leave him unable to be harmed even if he tried to let someone harm him. He also forms a harem that's basically a zoo since half of the girls are animals (and a cat girl) that ... Sep 27, 2022
This anime was alright, albeit it steeps heavily on the comedy side. The MC basically follows the trope of OP MCs in anime, so if that's your forte then you can be rest assured that it's fine. This also being a harem anime might hit your knockers if that's what you're into as well. This is a pretty average show, it's okay story-wise and might get a 2nd season. Honestly, I kind of hope so since the show does leave more unsaid for the sake of developing the main characters and story.
That said, I look forward to the show's continuation in hopes that it'll be ... Nov 17, 2021
Yet another foray into the Isekai genre. I swear I've seen like 15 isekai trailers this year alone. I know they're desperate for content, but yikes.
This one looked promising, cutesy characters (Kana Hanazawa AKA Nogi Sonoko's actress), interesting premise of "least popular kid in school becomes best hero", and overall looked fun. What I saw instead was a Saturday morning kids' cartoon, except clearly aimed at teenage boys considering some of the fanservice and harem flags. Instead of telling a thought-provoking story we have events happening because Plot and all kinds of silly shortcuts like some rando at school teleporting everyone to another world because Reasons. ... Oct 14, 2022
its fine, don't get worked up about it. This seems like its mocking other isekai anime, you can feel that right away. idc, its whatever
it feels like some generic spit out anime, I watched it just to watch something, it wasn't the most trashy trash, but it wasn't the tastiest trash either. If you enjoy stuff that doesn't make your brain work at all, then you should most definitely watch this, I highly recommend this for you dudes. Its no slideshow, more like a show made with slides n other stuff I gotta fill some space soooo Is the story unique? If it was predictable, did you enjoy ... Dec 22, 2021
I wanted to give it a 5, but considering the type of anime it is, I would say it might as well be a 6. As a WN reader I really expected more out of this anime.
It is very clear how bad Shinka no Mi is. The story is basically a cliche "you thought he was useless but actually he is f*cking op" isekai. The art is consistently.... meme-my? The voice acting didn't feel special, but the scripts are all weird anyway so I don't really see how they can make it better. Characters don't really have much depth as well. There's basically nothing about ... Nov 16, 2021
Simple summary:
1. Plot is common 2. MC is super lucky and super op 3. Harem 4. Main point of the story is comedy Before going to the story itself, viewers should know this is a typical isekai, where MC become the most powerful being in the world. First, if you do not like anime that has OP mc and harem, better just skip it, because that almost summarised the whole story. But if you just want to see for filling time, comedy(not really funny), and you like OP mc that able to solve anything without logic, this may be your liking. The story itself is about a high school boy ... Dec 7, 2021
Fruit of Evolution being an Isekai where the main character gets an extreme boost than the rest of their isekai friends. sounds interesting but common. although Fruit of Evolution is considered bad by most, it is astoundingly mid, not great like most say, but not bad either. the perfect definition of mid.
artstyle is a wonky mess, some shots are anatomically weird. overall the anime could be as good as the others in the same setting but the mediocre art sets it back. sound is not David studio level and could use some fair adjustments, characters however have great designs, often more confusing and cool ... Dec 23, 2021
Great storyline but animation sucks !! What the hell is this anime trying ! For godsake is this beta release of this anime or what ! The motions of the characters are mediacoreThe story is far mature yet it has childish vibes!! Mc is op and have a decent harem but to ruin it they made this as for 3 to 4 years old children which is definitely a horrible move !! Another great potential op harem story got ruined !! So as for me it's -5.5 stars/10 stars.. just cause I have hope for the second season that it will be better (if the

Nov 2, 2021
this is a typical isekai where you know the mc is op and the thing with that is that he pretty much get annoyed by it because of the pop-ups he gets from his "op-ness"
This show is trash and you know it. I watched it for the booba and you probably did too but is it entertaining as heck? Yes it is. In fact it is more entertaining that girlfriend girlfriend which was a dreadful experience. but if you like trash and/or you see these types as a guilty pleasure, then go ahead and watch this series or even read the light novels and ... Feb 19, 2023
Shinka no Mi: Shiranai Uchi ni Kachigumi Jinsei" is an isekai anime that, while showing some potential in its narrative and character development, ultimately falls short of delivering a memorable and compelling story. The characters, while diverse in their appearances, lack the necessary depth and complexity to make them truly stand out. It feels as though the potential of the series was left untapped, with a superficial and mediocre execution that fails to deliver a truly captivating experience.
While I cannot say that I recommend this series, I will acknowledge that there are viewers who may find enjoyment in its premise and execution. However, I caution ... |
