Wow...that was ass.

This anime is an adaptation of the light novel of the same name, written by Miki Nazuna.

Miki aims to be the fastest in the industry, and boy, oh boy, he IS FAST. THIS GUY HAS 15+ UNFINISHED STORIES—15! And most of them are pretty much copy-paste: "cheat this," "cheat that," "I got a cheat and now I have girls slobbering over my meat," "I’m weak, but I can actually destroy the world." His writing ability is on par with a Wattpad fanfic writer.

And this anime is one of his concoctions that, for some mysterious reason, was approved to be animated. You might ask, ...

This is one of those Isekais where the MC gets reincarnated as a noble and spends his time leisurely learning magic and building a Harem. There is no depth to story or character development. Just a thick-headed MC meeting one girl after another, who all wants to be his slave (literally). And unfortunately, there is no decent comedy, romance or ecchi, so there's nothing really enjoyable about this show. The series just had me cringing every few minutes starting from 2nd Episode.

I did like the power system and explanation about the magic in the first episode. But it was short lived, as the MC just ...

I'm a Noble on the Brink of Ruin, So I Might as Well Try Mastering Magic — Come one, come all, try as much and well, because this show just isn't it, and DON'T YOU DARE start this one.

I'm not going to spare my crass words here: the one author, who, like Jujutsu Kaisen's Satoru Gojo, claims, "Throughout the Heavens and the Earth, I alone am the honoured one", by proclaiming himself to be the "fastest in the (AniManga) industry", it's Taiwanese author Nazuna Miki back on the anime scene once again to show off just how bad (or good) he manages to circumvent and ...

Before diving into Botsuraku, you should set your expectations clearly: it's a low-stakes harem popcorn power fantasy—nothing more, nothing less. If you're looking for depth, gripping storytelling, or profound character arcs, you'll be disappointed. But if you enter ready for easygoing entertainment and a casual magic spectacle, you're in for a surprisingly enjoyable ride. I saw the poor ratings before mostly binging it, so my expectations were set appropriately - which allowed me to enjoy it.

The anime itself is unabashedly shallow in narrative complexity, yet it shines in one particular area: its commitment to magic. Unlike many fantasy series that skim over their magical systems, ...

I'm not going to spend a huge amount of time on this show which doesn't put in any effort of its own to be...anything.

Imagine a game where you just go around picking up power ups and everyone with boobs you talk to asks to be your slave. That's it. You don't have to do anything to get them, they're just there. You just walk around and push F to interact with things and get stronger. No fights. No enemies. No choices. No struggle. No story. Just random powerups for no reason and which don't really mean ...

I enjoyed it!

This anime is another fun and simple fantasy show about learning magic, being a noble and creating a nation! Everything about this show may seem generic, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it! Animation and style is very pleasant, its colorful and vibrant. Characters are alright, to say the least, but voice actors deserve a lot of praise! Story is interesting as of right now, it has a nice build up to where could this journey possibly lead us.

Overall, I think you should give this show a chance. Its very easy to watch, I had a great time relaxing with ...

The low rating of this show seems to ]be purely based on unrealistic expectations.

This is isekai slop. It tells you it's isekai slop from the start. At no point does it pretend to be something greater.

So why are people complaining about it being generic and poorly written?

Come into this show with the same mentality you bring to a bag of chips. It's a brief, cheap, and low quality experience that will entertain for a few hours. The characters are one note, but fun. The premise is generic, but easy to follow without thought. The animation is average to bad, but it's serviceable and not ...

I'm a Noble on the Brink of Ruin, So I Might as Well Try Mastering Magic

EDIT: Episode 4 just came out and now it copies Reincarnated as a slime. I Don't want to spoil you, but man, this just pushed me to drop it.

Alright, let’s talk about this one. You know that feeling when you watch an anime and it feels like déjà vu? That’s the vibe with Botsuraku Yotei no Kizoku dakedo, Hima Datta kara Mahou wo Kiwametemita. It’s like a remix of “I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince so I Can ...

I honestly don't understand the other reviews.

So I start with them: yep, they are correct. Harem (for no reason), good shoes MC (you know, the pushover "virgin loser" personality, who, in adult games, gets NTR exactly because he "needs to look away and flee" if a woman hints that she has sexual-related desires towards him, even if in relationship), everyone looks like MC best friend with woman being hot, cute or sexy, and male being hunks and other stereotype, and of course, all are the most kind, friendly, caring, loyal, bla bla bla bla because they are serving MC, while anyone who is against is ...

After doing a preliminary review, then writing an updated version, I have now finished watching this utter garbage and can put out my final review, and bleach this trash from my mind.

This show is absolutely terrible, and even I, someone who can typically find enjoyment in the most panned, poorly-reviewed, trashy isekai, struggled with and had to force myself to finish this absolute slop.

It's annoying because there are hints and moments where I think "this could have been another Tensura" and parts where I think the story could go somewhere interesting and explore what's going on in a more in-depth fashion, however, it never ...

Truly a PoS anime. The anime starts like your basic Mid anime and devolves into something that is simply disgraceful. I am so angry at the anime standard to turn anyone and anything into a Loli. This show could of been decent if it hadn't been ruined by radon the dragon at episode 9-10 turning into a Loli. It did not help the plot it didn't add to the storyline and you have to go through the rest of the anime like that. Truly disgusting, truly disappointing.

Storyline is your typical basic Isekai Anime, overpowered hero who is born into a noble family which a ...

The anime feels as if the author is etiher having a dementia or commitment issues. It forgets characters that were introduced but are only included for 2-3 episodes, And each episode there is a new character whom usually were against mc first but then side with them instantly after small confrontation. The in-depth magic explanation was great at the beginning but the mc is so op to the point that it becomes irrelevant. The artstyle is generic, the music is generic, the whole thing is just generic.

Just skip this hot pile of garbage, there are tons of anime that are way better than this.

This is my first review on this site, so forgive me if it doesn't meet your expectations, but I wanted my opinion in a nutshell.

This anime is a mix between Tensura and Re:Monster, the main character tries to do everything like Rimuru but since chapter 3, in the 4th chapter he is about to start his own kingdom. And in the case of Re:Monster, he only needs to walk to have 4 or 5 times more powers than he had 4 minutes ago in the course of the chapter, not even Re:Monster dared to do it so brazenly.

Finally it goes extremely fast, it has broken ...

mhmm when i try to review this the first ever scene i cant forget is how nonchalant the flow is when mc gets his fiance/waifu, like i was flabbergasted because the mc and the waifu was talking about it being married in the future sht but the way they talk was like "were friends now" so i was amaze by that cause theres no reaction to them whatsoever so my thoughts was like "is that how nobilty really is!?"

sorry can't help to say this since its the first image comes to my mind when recollecting what i saw in this anime,

anyways its kinda bad, ...

I am NOT sure WHY people are hating on this anime so much when it is without a doubt a very fun and lighthearted isekai! It feels like Reincarnated as a Slime with more world building elements from Tsukimichi Moonlit Fantasy. I have ALWAYS loved anime that developed their worlds and this anime does a great job doing just that. MOST anime focus way too much on the main character and their story and leave the world itself very bland and undeveloped but you do not have to worry about that with this anime. Yes Liam is the MC but I'd say that the WORLD ...

I Watched It So You Don't Have To.

Overall, it's just a bad anime. The visuals are bad. Minimal animation, bad backgrounds, characters are low detailed. The sound is also generic. The plot here is a copy of "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime". Only worse. It's a cheap, lazy imitation. Same dragon, same building a city, same making a bunch of servants and familiars. Even Rimuru's stuffy office meetings look more intense than this. Mc-kun does everything with no sweat and no effort. There's not an ounce of suspense in any of the fights. There's no spectacle either. There's just nothing to see. ...

A Disappointing Dive into Mediocrity

At first glance, this anime presents itself as a lighthearted adventure, but the deeper you go, the more apparent its flaws become. What starts as a seemingly promising fantasy series quickly devolves into a shallow, uninspired mess where nothing feels earned, and every development is predictable.

The protagonist is the biggest issue. He stumbles into magic, and without any effort, he’s suddenly a prodigy. Every spell works perfectly on the first try, every challenge is effortlessly overcome, and every other character exists solely to admire him. There's no struggle, no real stakes, and no depth to his growth—it’s just an endless string ...

This is a weird one.

The plot is very plain.
Pacing is quite bad and overly fast.
Continuity for the characters is all over the place.

Especially the "you are now my slave and can’t disobey me" part is really disturbing.

But for some reason, I am still watching this. Some reviewer mentioned that the author of the original work is a master of churning out generic slop. Maybe he truly is a master of just combining it into some mathematical masterpiece of being garbage but still somehow interesting.

It’s not so bad that it is good. But it most definitely is not good. But it is still watchable.

I have only 1 thing to say. The original story writer must have committed suicide watching this adaptation. The story is good. But the direction required to make it fire was severely ignored. It feels like ChatGPT story progress is better than this. I am also currently writing a web novel, so I am expressing my feelings as a fellow writer

Story Unique? No, if you look at anime

Art style is fitting for the story? Yes, art is good

Character Design? They were overpowered, overly stupid etc etc

Did the characters react to situations and events in a realistic way? No, obviously not. They lacked emotion in the ...

Good n Simple Isekai Anime :
- Overpowered MC, Harem, collecting subordinates/slaves
- Getting a Noble Title, Building a Country, war (maybe)
...this is the adventure of a little rudeus which I think is quite good, reminds me of the anime Tensura Slime and Hachi nan tte and mushoku tensei for the MC.
...1 thing that is lacking and even very lacking in my opinion is the fighting scene and also the bad fighting style, the names of the attack techniques/moves are also strange, I think it's a bit tacky.
...the rest I am very entertained by this kind of relaxed isekai anime, light to watch for old people like ...
