Mob kara Hajimaru Tansaku Eiyuutan

I honestly think the average score of 5.8 doesn’t represent this anime fairly.
Mob kara Hajimaru Tansaku Eiyuutan is much better than that.
The story isn’t groundbreaking, but it’s executed really well.
It follows a familiar setup for fantasy adventure shows, yet it feels refreshing thanks to the pacing and how the main character grows throughout the journey.

The art style fits the story nicely simple but expressive, with good animation in the key moments. The characters are likeable and have both strengths and weaknesses that make them feel real.
They don’t act overly smart or dumb, and their reactions make sense in the context of what’s happening around them.

Overall, ... it’s an enjoyable anime that flows at a great pace.
If you like fantasy adventure anime with decent character development and a smooth story, I think you’ll have a good time watching it. I really hope it gets another season it deserves one.

Another anime of those that appears when you have nothing to watch, and maybe it would be better to have nothing to watch... But I gave it a chance, because just like in any season, I need to watch at least 1 isekai anime or something like that (in this case it's RPG elements). Honestly, as I expected, it was an anime more or less, with very cool action moments (which surprised me in the first episodes, I didn't expect this kind of quality in an anime like this lol), but it always ends up falling into the same thing as always in animes of ... this genre. Even though it was extremely predictable from the moment I hit my eye, I had fun, and I think that's the most important thing in a story! I've always liked exploration and level system in games and RPG's, so seeing this in an anime cheers me up too. A story doesn't always have to be amazing to entertain you and this type of anime is the greatest proof of that. I'm not saying you can turn off your brain and watch it (because I think it's disrespectful at a certain point, we limit art a lot when thinking that way), but it's good to watch when you have nothing to do and just want to relax and have a little fun, the "normal" animes of the seasons (this one included) always deliver great moments of fun.

Mais um anime daqueles que aparece no momento em que você não tem nada pra assistir, e talvez fosse melhor ficar sem nada para assistir... Mas dei uma chance, pois assim como em qualquer temporada, eu preciso assistir pelo menos 1 anime de isekai ou algo do gênero (nesse caso são elementos RPG). Sinceramente como eu esperava era um anime mais ou menos, com momentos de ação bem legais (que me surpreenderam nos primeiros episódios, não esperava esse tipo de qualidade em um anime desse kkkkk), porém que sempre acaba caindo na mesma coisa de sempre em animes desse gênero. Mesmo sendo extremamente previsível a partir do momento em que bati o olho, eu me diverti, e acho que isso é o mais importante em uma história! Sempre gostei de exploração e sistema de níveis em jogos e RPG's, então ver isso em um anime me anima também. Nem sempre uma história precisa ser mirabolante para te entreter e esse tipo de anime é a maior prova disso. Não digo que você pode desligar o cérebro e assistir (até porque acho isso um desrespeito em certo ponto, limitamos muito a arte ao pensar dessa forma), mas é bom para assistir quando você não tem nada para fazer e só quer relaxar e se divertir um pouco, os animes "normais" das temporadas (esse incluso) sempre entregam ótimos momentos de diversão.

“A Nobody's Way Up to an Exploration Hero” aka “Mobkara” is what happens when a cliche idea is butchered by amateurish writing.

This show is a rare gem. Indeed, rarely do I see something so badly written, devoid of charm and utterly boring. 99% of what we see is plot with little to no reverence to the story.

Before we start I would like to explain something. I will be talking about “plot” and “story”. Many people use those terms interchangeably. I’m not one of those people, so to make sure everyone is on the same page…
I use the definitions for “plot” and “story” as Lisa ... Cron describes them:
“What happens in the story is the PLOT, the surface events.”
“STORY is about how the things that happen affect someone in pursuit of a difficult goal, and how that person changes internally as a result”.

Oh boy. I really wish I had something positive to say about the writing but it’s absolutely atrocious. From the very first episode we get to see that this show will have absolutely no stakes. The world bends over backwards for the MC - Kaito from the get go. We barely see anything about his “before” state (the state of his life before his adventure begins), we do get some exposition through his inner monologue but it’s vague and not really interesting. He’s weak and has an obsession with the dungeon. That’s actually a good starting point. Which is destroyed in the very first episode when he finds his first (yes, FIRST) OP AF servant. The worst part? He just finds her. He doesn’t get her as a reward for doing something that would show us his morality. He just finds her as a drop. Above that he was contemplating selling her and had a moment that he regretted not doing that. Hell of a hero.

From that moment on we get 99% plot in which the world bends over backwards like a cheap whore for Kaito and 1% story. Which is much more than I thought given how bad the first episode was.

Without getting into too many spoilers he ends up with two walkin nukes in cute, loli forms. One angelic and one demonic. I can live with that. At least there shouldn't be any harem ecchi shit with that setup. He even becomes more confident and proficient (told You we get 1% story) which is a nice bonus. But there is something that is poorly explained and makes no logical sense. At some point he is invited to join a party. Their first pairing is explained pretty well. They wanted to take part in an event. Ok. That's good. But… after the event he is invited for more regular exploring and he accepts. Why? There is no need for that. His two loli-nukes are way more powerful than the girls that invited him and, because they are in his servitude, they won’t betray him. Something that’s always on the table when dealing with humans. I fail to see the logic of him joining forces. Especially that his loli servants end up rescuing everyone more than once. What's the point of the party? Oh yes, we need the male, boring protagonist to be surrounded by women that are far more interesting than he is, so they can develop a crush on him. Although why would a college student have a crush on a high schooler is beyond me.

Apart from that the last two episodes have the best story of the whole show. Not only Kaito’s personal story (which is boring as hell) but albo one of the girls from his party. We get to see how devoted he is when it comes to helping his friends (we don’t know if that extends to people that he doesn’t know because the first episode was garbage when it comes to character introduction), the fears of the whole party and even something I did not expect. A real crisis for Kaito. That was surprising in a good way. But we can’t have good things in a show as bad as this so his “crisis” is resolved with one conversation with no long term consequences.

Most episodes feel like some took an idea for one episode and stretched it to last at least two. I’m not even joking. The amount of useless joke conversation Kaito has with his servants is astonishing. Most of those are the devil girl asking for more “food”. I don’t need to see that after every fight.

This show is unwatchable. It has lazy writing, an unlikable protagonist, poorly choreographed fight scenes, no stakes and a world that bends over backwards for our “hero”.
