A-Rank Party wo Ridatsu shita Ore wa, Moto Oshiego-tachi to Meikyuu Shinbu wo Mezasu.

In my opinion, from a visual, music, and several other aspects, this anime has quite good execution compared to other anime of similar genres. I honestly forgot the last time I saw a fantasy sword and magic anime like this. However, there are some shortcomings, especially with the story's inconsistent pacing. Sometimes I really enjoy it, but at other times I get very bored, or even worse, confused about why the story is like this.

But because recently there have been so many isekai or sword and magic fantasy anime with very poor execution, my standards have become a bit skewed 😂. So, I think this ... anime is pretty good to enjoy as entertainment. Don't take the story too seriously because, in my opinion, it's quite MID on the plot side. Still, I certainly enjoyed it enough, and I might recommend you watch this anime.

With a little rebranding this could be a real hit. Instead of that nonsense title they gave it, they should have called this show "Generic Harem Adventure Fantasy" and just rolled with its strengths as a parody of the genre and industry.

Unfortunately we didn't get the self-aware spin so what's left is a generic harem adventure fantasy without a layer of creative humor on top of it. There's a plot but it hardly matters, it gets walked through like an afterthought. The plot actually ain't bad, but again, it's just a backdrop to hareming in the service of a soulless and robotic audience insert protagonist.

Your ... harem features your a legal loli, a redheaded country girl, a sultry tanned elf, a tomboy catgirl, some random blonde chick, and a not legal at all loli, and fortunately they all understand their sole reason to exist quite perfectly. You'll sit through a lot of talking around the table and completely unearned extended tear-jerk-bait scenes along the way, but the art is good and everybody is guaranteed a happy ending, you and your harem. 24 episodes of it. And 24 more coming since they upped for a S2!

The best part of all is that the world will completely stop, and yes this includes the reality-eating dragon, while you get your thoughts together and resolve your personal crises and inner conflict, or heal up and boost the morale of your team. The ruleset is pretty generous since this universe exists to provide a happy ending to you and your harem. They might have explained this in the lore in one of those talky parts I slept through.

You're a hero now, audience insert protagonist, and it's time to harem the multiverse to its salvation!

I watched this pretty quickly, but honestly, it didn’t leave much of an impression — at least not a good one.

The story has potential, but the way it handles emotional moments is just… weird. A character who should’ve meant a lot dies, and the cast barely reacts. Then the MC gets in danger, and suddenly everyone’s crying like it’s the end of the world. It felt really off.

The heroines don't help either. Their reactions are either over-the-top or weirdly flat, depending on what the plot wants. Most of the time they just exist to boost the MC’s ego or say stuff like “You’re amazing, Sensei!”

It’s ... not unwatchable. I was curious enough to finish it. But once it ended, I realized I didn’t care about any of it — and that kind of says it all.
