Isekai Yakkyoku

Pathology expert dies from overwork and gets isekaied into a magical world, where he becomes basically the god of medicine, creates drugs from thin air and identifies any illness just by looking at people and throwing random illness names, until he finds the correct one. Isn't a comedy, nor a deep complex or intriguing show, just weak, generic and superficial, to the point it doest even bother with exploring its own themes.

I dont think you can even say that this explores the topic of medicine, from how dumbed down and shallow it depicts and approaches it, being summed into basically using some medical and pathology ... related names, and once and then mentioning a very basic summary of some illness story. But if you remove the doctor background, you get a generic isekai with an OP MC that solves anything and everything by its own, without any major real threat to him or anyone else around him.

The characters are shallow generic stereotypes, with no real personality or purpose out of just being an excuse to fill the world and give a reason for the MC progression, that its also non existent. The story is poorly written and not that well developed, nothing being done by the MC pays off or feel deserved, the reasons motivations for other character's deeds werent clear, and were just poorly elaborated, the antagonists didnt go far from just being the generic greed stereotype. Everyone just do the binding of the MC, despite he just being a literal child, that some people know its a god, and there is no high stakes when god is solving every problem for you.

I was expecting something at least akin of the Ascendance of a Bookworm, or maybe in the same level as Thermae Romae Novae, or any other show that at least really tried to depict and describes the raw process of doing things in the past, but not even a somewhat engaging story i got. Its just a boring inexpressive and uninspired piece that don't even bother into engaging its own proposed themes.

Early episodes were good. Unfortunately, the quality and pacing decreased as the show continued, leading to an ending which felt rushed and cliched.

At the start, the show looked promising. It had good, correct scientific detail and an interesting premise. Although episode 1 felt quite exposition-heavy at first, it got up to speed and quickly became pretty fun.

However, pacing became an issue later in the show. The final episodes introduced lots of things from nowhere, and the victory achieved felt hollow and unearned. Plot holes and underutilized character abilities also plagued this show, it felt like the characters had a worse memory of what their abilities ... were than I did as the viewer.

Overall, I can't recommend this show. Although you may like the show initially, I don't think it's likely to last throughout.

I really wanted to like this isekai more, but if fell apart after the initial push.

First 3 episodes were good, I didn't mind the OP protagonist, but the weak world building ruined it. I would expect the isekai'ed protagonist to understand at least some economic principles. Since we're talking about opening a store, there is a complete lack of any development around how economics works in this world. Focus is entirely on the OP protagonist and his abilities, but that doesn't fit well with the idea of opening a store.

Seems to be undercurrents of a guild system in the commoners, and some politics is implied, ... but it is glossed over. Opportunity missed.

A very very mid isekai anime.
Worse than the likes of Slime Isekai or Redo of Healer or any other generic isekai anime
Animation is very generic, Protagonist has a generic shota design, none of the side characters are interesting and everything is purely the definition of bland.
The protagonist has zero flaws whatsoever as his magical power basically forms any chemical known in existence and another magical power that lets him spot out any sickness. As he was already a famed chemist before he died, he has zero flaws and the series is just watching him cure people.
The only thing interesting about the show are the ... chemistry formulations and the usage of medicine and such.



tldr very generic, don't watch unless you're a chemist or need to pass your science exam

Ive never written a review, but these characters pissed me off to the point where I needed to vent.
The show started off fine. The scientific focus of the first episodes is quite fun and its nicely pased. However, after a couple of episodes, this show becomes unbearable due to these characters. Every single prominent characters is obsessed with the MC. The constant cries of admiration and moments where other characters are in awe of the MC get old after about 12 seconds. There is 0 depth to any of these characters, 0 character development and the story is too stale to make up for ... any of it.

Ive seen some Isekai trash in my time, but at least most shows have some redeeming quality, or are bad to the point where it gets funny. This is neither, it just pissed me off. Why they felt the need to make the most abnoxious 8 year old girl and a 24/7 awestruck adult mage 2 of the main characters is beyond me. The MC is not as bad, hes just incredibly bland, like almost ubelieveably bland.
I somewhat enjoyed the first couple of episodes, but what follows is so abnoxious that I cannot score this more than a 3.

It's just painfully average. Issekai-kun here is reborn with blessing of a god and pretty much unlimited power for analyzing ailments and unparalleled powers of creation and destruction. What does he decide to do with it? Well create skin care products of course. Naah, he doesn't want to go on adventure, get babes or do anything kids his age want. NO! He wants to work some more! That's right. He died working in last life and he sure as hell is not changing his way now that he got second chance.

It's boring. Story is predictable and always plays out the way everyone expects it to. ... Main character is a kid who everyone takes seriously and don't doubt one bit. What's that? This nonsense words you are saying mean there are things I can't see? Sure I'll just swallow this random medicine you made and claim is 100% good without having it checked! They tried to offset this by making him "a royal pharmacist" which makes even less sense the more you think about it. There were few more shows exactly like this one in past year or so. Copied to a letter. Even the title of the show is unimaginative.

I'd say avoid it, but some people actually like this kind of nothing. It's a mystery to me really, but I know am not finishing it. There's no secret how next 6 or so episodes are playing out.

TLDR: This is a generic and boring Isekai with annoying characters.

This anime is so bad, Truck-kun couldn't be bothered and left the MC to work himself to death because the MC's little sister died. Boo-hoo. The MC was already a master in medicine and now, gets injected into so noble family's kid. Sucks to be the kid since his body got stolen. Other than now being rich, the MC has all his past life knowledge, gets amped with divine powers and solved the kingdom's problem, with cheap medicine in his drug store. God, I feel dumber from watching this. I would say this was meant ... for kids but there is a bit of violence in it. Maybe special need teen could watch this. I rather watch grass grow.

This is yet another profession based isekai anime. If it wasn't clear by the title, it's about Pharmacology. The colorful style and smiling characters means it's also one of the mindless shows designed for children, devoid of any real suspense, plot, conflict, or grander design. If it wasn't for the stellar animation and some flashy spells, it would be ridiculously boring, all of which are wasted on a highly uneventful show. There is a random villain they throw in at the end so they can tick off that box, and he is immediately eliminated after a few lines. Otherwise, it's just smooth, perfect sailing for ... a former pharmacist who reincarnates into a medieval fantasy world and opens up a pharmacy to bring the world out of the dark ages. He has both wealth and status, born into a family of prestigious pharmacists that even treat royalty. The queen is already indebted to him by the third episode. If it sounds really boring to you, your expectations aren't far from the truth. The main character even gets god-like powers to harness all the elements and synthesize any drug he wishes from the very beginning, and a magical x-ray eye that can see both physical ailments and diseases. It's so ridiculously easy for him. There is a pretense of some science and natural principles involved, but they dispense with it quickly as this veritable embodiment of a god of healing conjures up magical pills from thin air, flies on a broom, creates cataclysmic natural events, and heals injuries like jesus does with his hands. Unlike Dr. Stone, you won't be learning any useful chemistry or technical knowledge. Yes, the black plague was caused by fleas from rodents carried by ships, and that's about all you will learn. The show is just another low effort quickly manufactured anime for the season. It's very innocuous and benign. Great for kids I guess. It's Pokemon level intelligence with some drug names thrown in as a facade. The only thing really worthwhile is the father, who is hot. Maybe you would think there would be some allusions to the current real world pandemic. Absolutely none. Keep it as risk free and bland as possible.
