RPG Fudousan (RPG Real Estate)

In a world at peace 15 years after the defeat of the demon lord, a newly graduated mage named Kotone Kazairo moves to Dali—the royal capital of the Kingdom of Actus—to begin a new chapter in her life. To find a place to settle, the 16-year-old goes to a real estate firm called Rent Plan Guide (RPG). There, she meets its employees: the pragmatic priest Rufuria, the tomboyish warrior Rakira, and the adorable demihuman Fa.

Coincidentally, Kotone is also set to work at RPG Real Estate and wastes no time learning about the business from her coworkers. With many housing options available to suit the varied eccentricities of its diverse customer pool, RPG Real Estate strives to deliver perfect matches for clients' specific needs, but it is not always an easy task. Even so, Kotone and her colleagues are determined to bring smiles to the faces of their patrons—one home at a time!

With many CGDCT (Cute Girl Doing Cute Things) flooding the over-saturated market lately. Making a unique yet enjoyable CGDCT grows more difficult by the season. So studios and authors alike try out new concepts in an effort of standing out among others. For example, a Cute girl doing fishing (Slow Loop). Cute girl managing a cafe (GochiUsa). Cute girl camping (Yuru Camp), and many more. I am a huge fan of CGDCT, so when I heard there is a new CGDCT on Real Estate, by my favorite studio Dogo Kobo, I instantly got hyped and can't wait to watch it.

Dogo Kobo is well-known ...

Mixed Feelings

I feel sad for authors trying to make a mark where people have already established their names like stans on sub-genres that have well defined their premise and such. And one such prominent sub-genre will always be the CGDCT theme: Cute Girls Doing Cute Things, where this season, mangaka Chiyo Kenmotsu's latest Manga Time Kirara work has become an anime, after a fair few works to her (I assume it's a female) name. If you're a fan of Iyashikei / CGDCT themes, then RPG Fudousan a.k.a RPG Real Estate will certainly please you like Sweetness and Lightning, but I can understand why the score here ... doesn't reflect so well because of its shallowness. This is directed by Tomoaki Koshida, who's also the director for Spring 2019's Sewayaki Kitsune no Senko-san, so if you've been looking forward to watching a spiritual successor to Senko-san, please watch "Shachiku-san wa Youjo Yuurei ni Iyasaretai." instead.

So first off, RPG Fudousan is on the contrary, not the first anime to have done the whole real estate shenanigan. That award goes to last Spring's Dragon, Ie wo Kau. a.k.a Dragon Goes House-Hunting, which is a show that even exactly after a year since it was released, while the majority still shrugged it off like the typical love-hate game, I still remember loving this show immensely and haven't quite forgotten that feeling. That is, until RPG Fudousan appeared this season for those memories to come back, and frankly, I can't envision this show being as enjoyable as the former. But, make no mistake that the latter is still good in spots, it's just that the show itself is what you would expect of a 4-koma a.k.a 4-panel manga adaptation.

RPG Fudousan is just exactly as what the source lingers: a Manga Time Kirara SoL premise with no overarching plot and endearing characters to make up the charm of the series, and thankfully it does what it's intended to be done. The RPG (that stands for Rent, Plan, Guide) real estate small business firm that's run by its employees: the happy-go-lucky mage Kotone Kazairo, pragmatic priest Rufuria, the tomboyish warrior Rakira, and the adorable dragon demihuman Fa, selling houses to their patrons, one house at a time. And these houses can come in all sorts of settings and fashions that are always unique to the patrons that the 4 girls accompany throughout their business, it's a fun time of exploring both the outside world and its canonical themes that at times are nice to watch, that as highlighted, can feel shallow at times.

The brilliant shining moments are always in characterization, something that themes like CGDCT will always tend to leverage, and I think that RPG Fudousan did a nice job giving the 4 girls each of their unique quirks and features of their personalities. I can always think of Rufuria and Rakira being like the Yuri couple where the clique needs a man-like figure to stand out, and the warrior Rakira fits the bill of being a cutesy stronghold that can go blush at times, while Rufuria is the mother figure of the business. Kotone is the typical employee that does her job as she was told to do, and Fa is the dragon demihuman that's the gel bond of the group, understanding creature language and even going as far as to do literal translations of it, which I feel adds to the strong points of the show for small comedic punches.

When it comes to CGDCT, you can always trust that Doga Kobo will be tasked to produce it, and where it seems like a requirement to have at least one CGDCT show per season, it's a good chance that it will be done to the T, just as good as it looks. The Chibi/moe style is definitely a plus in portraying the light-hearted aspect of the show, and it is certainly enjoyable depending on the beholder of the person watching. Really though, no problems here at all. This also trickles down to the OST, which again, is what I have come to expect of a cheerful OP and ED, and of similar themes as the rest of the show as well.

RPG Fudousan is a comfy show, where at the behest of many shows featuring heavy action and fantasy, a guilt trip like this is much needed for a stress reliever of sorts. While I admit that this show isn't for me, if you're looking for a show that isn't much to swallow for entertainment, I'd think this show would do a great service to you. And even against yet another similar cusps of a feel-good show this season (Shachiku-san wa Youjo Yuurei ni Iyasaretai.), it just screams a good time, so ride those good times away for a comfortable watch.

Funny

RPG is just a trash show trying to be sweet. Is your usual vacant pretty anime girls, 3 of which look like the FBI will raid your house for. The show has no real story line, no real aims or ambitions, and of course no real RPG.

If you're looking for an Isekai with monster battles and various creatures to explore, you're barking up the wrong tree. Is your typical, everyone lives happily ever after trash.

If someone is mean to you, is fine, if someone blames you for something you didn't do, that's fine, if you kill someone, that's fine or ...
