Isekai Shikkaku

This one is a mixed bag for me. On one hand it surely didn’t follow the usual isekai routine with a bland MC that has zero traits and personality, on the other - it still plays really safe and doesn’t stand out too much. Now let me give you a bit more details.
World/story. An isekai world mass imported unhappy broken people to wage their war only to find out that unhappy broken people can easily go rogue, so someone now needs to solve this new problem. I will not lie that while the whole mass transportation isn’t a new concept, a twist with rogue heroes ... plays pretty good here, at least because I haven’t seen it used for a while now. Just don’t expect the rest of the world to have a unique twist, as it mostly is the usual isekai stuff.
Characters. Finally we have a main character who isn’t a self-insert. A very depressed suicidal writer is indeed a rather unusual hero for a story. Sadly him being an author and suicidal is just a reason to go for a few dark humour jokes, and those ones aren’t really good. Even though I do like dark jokes, those ones are playing… kinda safe? They are the easiest, the most obvious and the most tame jokes you could use in that situation and while some of them managed to make me smile a bit none of them made me laugh, as if it either didn’t land or didn’t hit hard enough. So while we finally have an interesting hero, not much interesting stuff is happening to him. For a secondary cast we got a more standard set of heroes. They have their growth, they have their moments, but those heroes lack the unusualness of the MC so they are rather basic. Villains are mainly of a “misunderstood/mistreated” type, and while the whole concept gets predictable very fast it is still executed on a good enough level to be passable.
Production: well, it isn’t bad. Loved the ending, didn’t notice BGM, VA all did a good job and the visuals are fine - nothing stellar though, as there isn’t really much action to be honest.

Summary. So, did I enjoy the show? A bit but yeah, I did. Can I recommend it? Not really, cause, to be honest, I don’t think there is enough stuff put in it to be worth a recommendation. To put it in another way: this title would be good if it focused more on all the unusual twists it makes, but in its current state it is just another isekai with a few small differences that elevate it from mass produced boring garbage but not enough to leave the “mediocrity zone”.

I feel like I don't know enough about Japanese culture to properly enjoy this anime.

So, in the first half of the 20th century, a suicidal author (based on real-life figure Osamu Dazai) gets isekai'ed just as he and his lover are about to commit double suicide. In this other world he is told that he's one of dozens of Earthlings summoned there supposedly to save that world from the demon lord. He is not interested in that whatsoever, only wanting to find his lover here in this new world so they can finish their double suicide pact together. And so with the first two ... members of his harem, an goddess and a cat-girl, he climbs into a coffin to get dragged around this new life in a new world to find the love of his life... so they can both end theirs together.

It's dark humor, and I'm there for it, but it's just not landing for me. Watching this anime makes me feel like an American at a Robbie Williams concert: my impression is that it's not terrible, but I don't understand the appeal. There seems to be a common trend in the Japanese parodies/satires that I've seen: stepping on the punchline (this is when you immediately point out what is supposed to be funny about what just happened, which in turn makes it not funny), and that happens all over the place here. We get set up, then punchline, and then just as I'm about to laugh another character stomps all over the punchline, leaving me not laughing at the joke. I've seen this often enough in Japanese parodies (it happens all over the place in Nozaki-kun) that I think it's part of the joke, but to my Western sensibilities, it doesn't translate.

However, this series is doing some fun things in the whole isekai parody sub-sub-genre. The idea that most people from Earth would be absolute jerks with their cheat powers isn't new, but it's an interesting way to play with the genre. I love that our protagonist is a true anti-hero; not that faux-macho, unchivalrous hero who gets called an "anti-hero" because they're a jerk, but a true anti-hero in the literary sense: a protagonist who is actively avoiding the plot; one who (in a literal sense here) is dragged from plot point to plot point with little to no agency in what happens.

I think I'll stick with this one for a few more episodes to see where it goes. I really enjoyed "Love After World Domination" from this writer-artist team, but I worry that the humor in this one feels too culturally specific to me.

This is a "what if a 90s depressed & suicidal grunge alt-rock artist (Kurt Cobain) was turned into an early 1900s anime protagonist", which isn't a bad thing.

"No Longer Allowed in Another World" is a really good anime with just a very slow start. The first few episodes take their merry time to speed up, but once the pace actually speeds up, it gets much better to watch.

Lets start with whats good:
1. The Animation:
The animation is very pleasing to the eyes and doesn't have jank CGI like some animes that were released this season. Really well produced and has very crisp animation.

2. The Characters:
At first ... I wasn't very sure of the characters, they came across as one dimensional in the beginning episodes, but as this season went on they gained an alright personality with "Sensei" actually getting decent development. By the time the anime ended I really liked the characters, obviously some of them are very basic, but they at-least were likable and didn't come across as stupid and dense.

3. The Story:
The story is actually pretty good, and isn't boring to watch. Though this isn't exactly the most original premise, it is done very well and has good plot twists and does some original stuff that isn't common in other animes. Some of it is predictable, but don't let it distract you from seeing that this has a fun story.

The bad:
1. First episodes are really slowly paced:
As I said prior this anime has a really slow pacing at the start of the anime. This isn't the most fun to watch through at the beginning and it is easy to see why a lot of people dropped this anime at episode 3 and didn't want to give the rest a shot.

2. Some of the humor isn't great:
This is something that is SUBJECTIVE, so please take it with a grain of salt. A decent amount of this anime's suicidal and dark jokes don't quite hit the mark of actually being funny, even when they are funny it is more because it is random, like the anime randomly panning over to the MC eating a bunch of poisonous pills to end themselves. Of course there are funny scenes here that do not involve the MC poisoning himself, but a good majority are involving his suicidal tendencies which can be a coin flip on if they are funny or not.

The ugly:
If you don't like a theme that involves suicide as a comedic joke, then this is probably not for you, and it should be ignored if you have the belief that suicide is not a joke or can be used as a joke.

If you want to watch something, and you don't want to search through anime on MAL for 3 hours for something to watch, this is pretty good and I recommend it.
7.5/10

'No Longer Allowed in Another World' appears to be another generic isekai, but it's more than that. It's a parody of the isekai genre.


§ Overview

The anime begins with Sensei, which is presumably Dazai Osamu, who is about to have a double suicide with his lover Sacchan. But before he can do so, truck-kun takes him to another world. He was summoned to defeat the evil lord, who unknown at that time was defeated earlier, but he would none of that. All he wants is to find Sacchan.

Later on, he learns that other worlders like Sensei are wreaking havoc and are worse than the evil ... lord.


§ Strengths and Weaknesses

Since the protagonist is Dazai Osamu, many were disappointed with this anime. Maybe they were expecting too much from him. I think Dazai Osamu was only used so this anime could have a suicidal and nihilistic character. Speaking of which, it rubs me the wrong way that he is suicidal and nihilistic, but that's just me. YMMV.

He is an effective character given the context of what the show is trying to do, but overall he is unlikeable. Perhaps I have somewhat of a liking for him because his seiyuu also voices Araragi.

The animation is pretty average, and this anime doesn't really require devoting resources to improve the animation given the story. Truck-kun is used too much ad nauseam.

It uses dark humour and I'm sure it's not everyone's cup of tea. It's unpleasant sometimes, but I do appreciate how it is trying to differentiate itself to other isekai.

Speaking of which, this is in the same vein as that other isekai parody called 'My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered.' That one is pure comedy and can be fun. This one can sometimes be funny, but there are moments of drama.

It is not totally different though. Sensei attracts different women to become part of his harem, although he is not interested. Thus, some standard isekai tropes are used but executed differently.


§ Conclusion

This anime is a parody of the isekai genre. It uses dark humour that can be funny but sometimes unpleasant. Although it tries to be different, you can't help but feel it's an average story, and we're not even considering its unpleasant subtext.

This anime is a bit tricky to evaluate. It offers moments of genuine intrigue, but the overall package feels uneven, weighed down by some shallow elements that limit its potential. At its core, the premise plays with the familiar “what if Isekai tropes, but the main character is… different?” The protagonist, Sensei, a clear nod to Osamu Dazai, is thrust into the standard Isekai setup, summoned to another world and tasked with defeating the demon king. But unlike the typical hero, Sensei rejects the call to adventure, preferring instead to search for his lover Sacchan and chronicle the tragedies of those around him. This twist ... on the standard Isekai formula sets the stage for what could have been an insightful subversion of the genre. Yet, despite this interesting premise, the series never fully capitalizes on its potential.

While the idea of an anti hero refusing to save the world may seem fresh at first, it quickly becomes apparent that it isn’t as novel as the show seems to think. Sensei’s refusal to follow the heroic path has been done in other Isekai stories, and this anime doesn’t explore it in a way that feels particularly new or groundbreaking. It’s not a bad setup by any means, but the execution struggles to maintain momentum, particularly when the main character’s melancholic tendencies are played more as a recurring trope rather than something deeply meaningful.

That being said, there are glimpses of depth in Sensei’s character. His role as a writer who is fascinated by human suffering and tragedy adds layers beyond the typical “suicidal and nihilistic” persona. His desire to document the emotions and experiences of those he encounters hints at an underlying complexity that could have been explored more thoroughly. Unfortunately, the show’s shallow supporting cast often undermines these moments. Sensei’s journey largely revolves around fighting other Isekai adventurers, those who, after defeating the demon king, seek to seize power for themselves. These antagonists are cartoonish and one dimensional, making it difficult to feel invested in their conflicts or the world they inhabit.

Humor occasionally surfaces in the absurd interactions between Sensei and the world around him, but it’s not enough to save the show from its cast. The story only begins to show signs of life past the halfway mark, and even then, some of its attempts to introduce “gray morality” feel a bit clumsy and stilted. However, there are moments of genuine improvement towards the season's end, particularly with the final two Isekai adventurers the group confronts. These characters have more fleshed out backstories and motivations, adding some much needed texture to the narrative. Sensei’s unique ability to “record” their stories and offer them redemption by sending them back to their pre death lives on Earth provides a satisfying payoff. It’s in these moments that the show’s potential truly shines, exploring how people are changed by their experiences in this fantasy world, contemplating their regrets, and what it means to face their own mortality. This concept of redemption and reflection is where Isekai Shikkaku comes closest to realizing its thematic ambitions.

Ultimately, Isekai Shikkaku is a series that lives and dies by its characters and their stories. The uneven quality of the cast makes it hard to stay engaged initially, but there are interesting ideas buried beneath the surface. While the first half of the show is weighed down by shallow conflicts and repetitive character tropes, the latter half offers glimpses of the deeper narrative that could emerge in future seasons. If it can continue to develop its characters and lean into its darker, more introspective moments in the future, it may yet grow into something special.

The version of Dazai Osamu in this anime is really cute. Although he has the attribute of wanting to end his life, he’s quite awkward about it. When he’s truly needed, he acts like a real teacher, guiding everyone and providing help. This makes him one of the more interesting interpretations of Dazai among the many variations. The comedic elements of the story dilute his inherent sense of despair and gloom, enhancing its overall readability. Other characters feel a bit generic, but overall, it's a smooth story. I read the subsequent manga plot on mangajikan.com, and the main highlights of the anime compared to the ... manga are Dazai's otherworldly adventures, the restoration of the original delicate art style, and the voice acting by Hiroshi Kamiya. It’s rare to hear Kamiya use such a low, melancholic tone; compared to Mamoru Miyano’s portrayal of Dazai in "Bungo Stray Dogs," it's a completely different enjoyment.

Eh.
I picked this up because I was fascinated by the decision to put Dazai Osamu into an isekai anime. I'm a big fan of his works (listen, I literally named my cat after him. I have a Dazai Osamu jr in my home) but I'm a little picky about depictions of him (whatever Bungo Stray Dogs has going on is not my jam). The first few episodes made me nearly cry laughing. The character design, the way he carries himself, and the way he speaks really feels like the author is deeply, deeply invested in this man's life story. The concept itself is hilarious ... and the execution during the first few episodes really is top tier.

After episode 3, things kinda of get repetitive...to the extent that I am not sure if this is a show worth finishing.

The worldbuilding is cute but generic isekai garbage and the side characters are similarly generic isekai fare. The saving grace of the show is, well, the dude who wrote The Setting Sun is comic relief and his suicidal and self-deprecating tendencies are dialed up to reflect that. I did enjoy the insistence that the only thing that could prevent Dazai Osamu from actually dying is isekai antics, but not really much else beyond that.

As for the storyline...well. It's a story. There is a plot. There are definitely 12 episodes of content here. I had desperately hoped it would end completely in episode 12, but to my chagrin, more episodes are needed to wrap up all the little plot points introduced near the end.

If you want a little laugh, go for this one. If you have ever wondered what Dazai Osamu might be like in an isekai, go for this one. If you want something gripping and interesting...maybe pass on this one. Ultimately: it's fine.

A non-thorough review on No Longer Allowed

I gave this anime a chance because I didn't have much to watch this season (Fall 2024 is stacked though), but I would say I enjoyed it. The writing was not particularly elaborate or impressive, but Sensei, the MC, has a comically depressed and suicidal nature which I find to be a nice breath of fresh air. As an author (more like a journalist), he does occasionally find motivation to study people who seem interesting, or to call people out for bullsh*t.

To be very blunt, there is not much to praise the anime for, and I'm sure many ... people might find Sensei more annoying than comedic. I did like the opening and ending songs, and I personally like Sensei's design a lot too.

If you just want to take a break from other anime and you seem interested in the main character, it wouldn't hurt to watch this 12-episoder. The writing is a bit awkward sometimes, and the characters often feel one dimensional. A few of the episodes might stand out as decent, but for the most part the show is mediocre. 8.2/10, I would watch a second season but I won't be surprised if it doesn't happen

From the beginning of the episode to episode 5, this anime might be interesting enough to watch.
The comedy is good, and it's not boring to watch, but not for the next episode!

The initial concept was about an MC who wanted to commit suicide, but the concept was suddenly discarded, why did this happen? Even though the comedy when he wanted to commit suicide was quite good, the longer the suicidal intention just disappeared. Reason for wanting to commit double suicide with Sachan? I don't think so, because I don't see Sensei actually wanting to do that at all!

The storyline increasingly deviates from the initial ... concept, Sensei is dragged into various conflicts with side characters and characters close to him.
I honestly don't really like this, because it's not really important to know each character's past from them!
Still the same as I mentioned before, Sensei lost his intention to commit suicide! Suddenly he wanted to become a writer!
What? What made sensei want to become a writer? Where did the initial goal he mentioned earlier, like wanting to commit suicide or double suicide with Sachan? It was all just bullshit!

In addition to the genre or theme, this anime should add Detective as one of its genres, why? Because Sensei here is more into solving other people's problems, Like a detective, he also tries to find out the origin of the problem, and strangely enough, only Sensei knows the secret compared to the others.
Yes, another mistake is that Sensei has turned into someone who solves other people's problems.

Too many flashbacks! Do you know Naruto anime? Yeah, it's like that! When a new character comes in, their past will also be told.
So, what is Sensei's actual goal?
People who want to commit suicide?
Double suicide with Sachan?
A writer?
Or become a detective solving other people's problems?

You judge for yourself!

**Isekai Shikkaku (No longer allowed in another world) **

An interesting if controversial premise that like many isekai of this style fails to fully capitalize upon it. However, It happens to be a concept that personally appeals to me quite a bit and it doesn’t fall flat on its face like so many of its compatriots. It manages to at certain points tell a somewhat poignant story that it blends with dark comedy even if other times one portion overpowers the other leading to disaster. For this reason I am rating Isekai Shikkaku as a 7/10 on the anime scale.

The comedy in this anime ... generally comes in a few forms, someone threatens sensei, sensei carries out an unexpected action, or one of the female characters is in love with him. I think it’s somewhat impossible to classify comedy as good or bad so I will just say my opinion on this and not factor it into my rating. I found the threat bits to generally get a light chuckle from me if they were integrated into the scene well, the unexpected actions ranged from an eyeroll to an actual laugh (rare for me!). The women in love with him bits were, as I think anyone who knows me would expect, completely uninteresting to me and I found them very annoying.

Following from the comedy's use of women the show has a baffling mix of some of the best (low bar) handling of women's issues in an anime to aspects I find annoying and off putting. The first thing you would notice upon watching the show is the truly terrible female character designs. There’s no defense for this, I don’t know why they did it, it undercuts the show’s messaging a lot and is a real shame considering that I think many of the other designs are pretty okay-good. On the positive end the show frequently touches upon women's issues from ostracization, marriage inequality, and the negative impact of traditional female roles. Reading some of Dazais’ work it’s clear this is drawn from his interest in the lives of women which he writes about frequently, Schoolgirl and the setting sun touching upon similar topics as seen in the show. Regardless it’s good, anime should do this more!

To theorize a bit more on the designs it’s very possible they are derivative of the worst aspects of the show. It’s clinging to isekai tropes, the more it tries to commentate on these directly or interact with them the worse it gets for it. The show is at it’s absolute best with simple character interactions and observations of humanity in the style of Dazai’s bibliography and it’s lowest when discussing chosen ones and magic swords. This habit is probably the source of the over saccharin and strange plot points which occasionally pop up throughout the anime. One of the worst of these is the rapping character who appears about midway through and isn’t utilization besides to commentate on isekai powers.

If you’ve made it this far I can now address the elephant in the room, the pretty big controversy over Isekai Shikkaku being made in the first place. The open question is it disrespectful to the memory of Osamu Dazai who himself died of suicide to create a character that is similar to him and draws from his literary works in this way. Reading through his works as I worked my way through the show I’m not so sure that the main character of Isekai Shikkaku “sensei” is intended to be Osamu Dazai himself. Dazai would frequently include gloomy suicidal or otherwise depressed writers through his works which while similar to him were in my opinion not supposed to be him, writers write what they know. If you accept this to be the case I think a possible intention of the writer may have just been to create a character in his style in which case I think that’s basically fine. The consumption of sedatives in harmful amounts being tied to a desire to not feel fully healthy is very similar to the activity of Naoji from setting sun for example.

Edit: A friend has pointed out that date at the start of the manga aligns with Dazai's suicide. This is pretty unfortunate and I still stand by what I said here about how the character is treated within the work. Maybe I'll return and write a bit more about what I think his personal thoughts on that would've been but that seems like a very fraught topic. Much of the discussion over his feelings about himself assume short story characters are self inserts which I strongly disagree with.

Okay look this isn't going to be sugar coated it. It has predictable writing, predictable tropes, the pacing is garbage, characters that are a dime a dozen minus the main character. The writing is basically trash and the plot could use a lot of work. That being said; I only recommend this if you like the humor with him wanting to kill himself and him actively trying to do so.

It's the anime equivalent of MR. Magoo

If you can look past that; I only really like this for the dark humor, everything else about this is completely trash to me.

This has a lot of jokes about ... self harm, ending his own life, etc, etc. The main character constantly doing things to make his health worse and or getting pills like it's candy with him being at death's door every step of the way in the anime with him remarking how often he wants to game end himself.

If you don't like that kind of humor nor the tropes of the anime; this is going to be a 4 out of 10 for you.

The world building is generic, the art is good, the animation has it's moments, the writing is meh. The edgy humor, golden, more please.

The art fits for what it is; it's typical of what you find for these kind of shows. The writing is... boy the number of issues I could make a whole video essay in that regard of mess, just that I wish it focused more on the humor and slapstick where it shines the brightest.

Isekai Shikkaku takes a different angle on the standard isekai in an attempt to stay fresh in a genre that is plagued by staleness. I think it has an interesting concept with a MC who wants to die, has no interest in saving the word, and stubbornly upholds their basic personal ideals of being a self-destructive, depressed author. But as far as putting everything together to create an interesting and enjoyable story thing fell a bit flat. Also the pacing on this show both across the season and even within episodes seems to struggle at times.

The whole concept of the MC being suicidal is ... kind of a mixed bag. I think it gets interesting when it actually effects fights, or the direction of the plot. But when it is used half jokingly or just to remind everyone how destructive the MC is it just makes everything feel depressing. I guess maybe there are some people who might find the MC's attitude of not caring about life to be 'cool' but to me it just seems juvenile and trite. I do enjoy that they decided to have suicidal character, I think that is a very interesting approach but they didn't really make him likable or sympathetic so I just don't really empathize with the MC at all even as someone who has dealt with depression, I think he is more fool than cool. I guess the contrast between the character's attitude and the lighthearted attitude of his companions and the jokey approach the anime occasionally takes otherwise were supposed to be a funny combination but it just didn't really work for me.

I think the show had a fresh enough approach to isekai that it kept me interested in seeing how it would do things, but I didn't ever really find myself connecting to the world or the main character. When character development happens it is nice, but it can be a bit sparse and slow coming. While the show has an interesting take, I am not sure I care about the characters, the world, or the MCs mission in life. So while the original concept and fresh take on isekai was enough to make me stick around and watch, I can't say I ended up loving the way it was executed. I think the MC's nonchalant and disinterested attitude made me feel the same way about the show. The MC doesn't really care and I never really found why I should either.

Isekai Shikkaku offers a fresh take on the overdone "Hero in Another World" premise, but it comes with its own set of oddities. While it’s far from the worst in the Isekai genre, it grapples with some questionable narrative choices that can be hard to overlook. The main theme of suicidal tendencies is a heavy one, and while it may resonate with some viewers, it could alienate others who find it too dark or out of place in an Isekai context.

One of the major issues lies in the protagonist's motivations. We're told he's suicidal, with no real attachment to life, yet he still manages to ... push forward, explore, and interact with the world. This makes his actions feel disconnected from his supposed lack of will to live. It’s hard to buy into his journey when his nihilistic worldview doesn’t align with his willingness to keep going.

Then there's the female protagonist, whose attraction to him because of his suicidal nature feels contrived. She’s seen countless Isekai heroes, but somehow, his self-destructive outlook is what sets him apart and makes her question her entire belief system? It’s a stretch that undermines her character and feels more like a convenient plot device than genuine character development.

Overall, Isekai Shikkaku tries to break the mold, but the forced character dynamics and inconsistent motivations make it hard to take seriously. It’s an interesting experiment in the Isekai genre, but ultimately, it leaves you scratching your head more than anything else.

Why do they keep basing anime characters on Osamu Dazai? Is this a psyop to make me want to pick up No Longer Human?

Anyway, this anime isn’t what I expected. I was hoping for a comedy isekai that would subvert expectations, but alas, that’s not exactly what we got.

What does this isekai do differently?
- Have a protagonist that comedically wishes to unalive himself

What does it not do differently?
- Everything else

You kind of already know where it’s going to go from the start, which is why this was perfect to watch in the background, even if you’re watching with subtitles. Its ... predictiveness offers a certain comfort, an opportunity to relax and go on browsing whatever online store you want to purchase from today or idly respond to work emails.

It’s generally quite enjoyable if you want something that wouldn’t require your undivided attention, which is sometimes what one needs in a show. It however lacks any real depth and doesn’t really stand out in its narrative, characters or ideas.

As I suppose is to be expected of an isekai, the ladies have giant breasts and most are at least half-naked, there's a catgirl in it too, and as is mandatory for all "anime" anime, women are positively obsessed with the main character even if he's realistically unbearable to be around. Everyone also has a somewhat cliché tragic backstory.

I did, however, finish it and was even sort of sad that it ended so quickly. There have been many titles so riddled with overused tropes or terrible writing that I had to drop them early, and this was not one of them. A guilty pleasure one might say.

Comfortingly predictable – that's the best way to describe it. If you want something easy to watch, I'd say go for it, but don't expect much.

I really wanted to like this anti-Isekai story, especially within an oversaturated Isekai power fantasy market. But one of its main selling points is humor. However, when you watch many comedy specials, it's hard to laugh at jokes from other mediums because you realize how unfunny they are. Maybe a legit stand-up comic could make this work in a comedy special, but not as a manga/anime. Or maybe the mangaka needed to go to several live stand-up shows, like "Kill Tony," bomb several times before finally finding that groove. THEN, they could make "No Longer Allowed In Another World."

It is moments like these where I ... wish Isekai Killer (aka The Killer of the Reincarnated: Cheat Slayer) didn't get canceled because it would have been a better overall anti-Isekai or Isekai satire. But it didn't focus on humor; it more focused on plot, character, action, and criticizing Isekais. With focusing on humor, if you drop the ball and people don't laugh at it, the story just has a giant tomato on it. Humor should always be on the back end regarding narratives for the manga medium.

However, NLAIAW was all right, so I gave it an average rating. Also, to be fair, most manga can only be funny when it is perverted. Manga like Ayakashi Triangle is a perfect example of this, yet NLAIAW took the risk of expanding on a darker sense of humor. Still, it's disappointing to see potential wasted when a clever premise is overshadowed by lackluster jokes. I wonder how much stronger the impact would have been if the humor had been woven into the story more seamlessly. Ultimately, it is a missed opportunity in a genre that could benefit from fresh perspectives.

Everything was good except the MC. hes was totally fake. here some point why hes so fake
1. keep telling wanna die but some plot keep him alive. meanwhile killing yourself was actually easy. some people struggling to keep alive.
2. just found reason to keep alive yet clearly he broke in less one eps
3. he has no effort to anything. his promise, his words, his action.
4. hes talking too much for someone who wanna die.

from i see here the author just trying to satire the the isekai trend. he tougth a negative person is so cool but actually is just so cringe to see how he ... brought the story. and then his harem eventually agree what hes said like wet dream every negative person u could be.
the story was made by a positive person who actually admire a negative person and tought he understand point of view being negative person.
the only reason why i keep watching this probably the animation was good and i like the MC voice and the heroine lmao. other than that its just trash anime with wet dream author.

Trash ecchi isekai and theres nothing else to it. If you like trash isekai and overly sexualized characters this is for you. Characters lack depth and motives. There are no consequences for actions and the characters lack communication skills. The women are sexualized and dumb yet the show isnt labled as ecchi? Most of the shading and detail work goes into the boobs tummy and hips of the women. If you are a woman then avoid this show. It left an uneasy feeling with me. The MC is just some depressed codependent loser who cant achieve his own goals. The show is extremely predictable full ... of overused tropes and poor voice acting.
