Honestly, I only watched this show for Lyrule. Idk what the overall plot was meant to be or what direction they wanted to go in, but it wasn't done right at all. I am not sure if the LN's do a better job of explaining this or what. But what the fuck is up with this dude's obsession with the king? Jesus christ, it's weird. his sole motivation is wanting to kiss the king's ass. Then he survives a literal nuke? With just a hole in his chest? This was slightly above isekai cheat magician in my book. but not by much

The premise had a lot of potential and that's why I initially picked it up. Was let down several times but kept on watching just because I hoped that there'd be something good. Gotta say, was disappointed.

It had some moments... but really the only character I actually cared about was Ringo and that was after her backstory was revealed.

Also, can't say it enough times how ridiculous that Aoi guiding the missile scene was.

One of better isekais, at least stayed fun till the end like the nice OP.
Some great stuff with Merchant & a bit of politics/war tactics, and ridiculous stuff like Aoi's missile, Akatsuki as god magician, and "vote nuke republic for happiness" prevents it becoming forgettable.
Gustave overstayed as an op 1D villain, at least give more backstory or details of his power source, and his relation with emperor he seems to adorre. Animation could've been better at points, but designs stayed nice.

It was fun, but I think if they focused more on actually putting their knowledge of the modern world into it instead of just throwing Aoi and Shinobu at nearly every problem then it would have been a lot better. I can ignore Tsukasa knowing some form of martial arts but skills with a gun as well were far fetched.

Surprisingly as one of my least favourite subjects, I enjoyed the Merchant's (can't remember his name) episode the most. Would have been much better if it was a merchant in another world. Or have a series where Ringo has to apply her knowledge of technology to another world. Ringo and the Merchant could really impact the world and rule it without announcing to everyone they're forming an independent nation!

It started well. Those first 3 episodes were good. Then my brain got shut down due to the genericness of all this. A concept that i found interesting (the different prodigies and their desire to change the world according to the skills/knowlegde they have in each of their areas of work) turned out to be underwhelming because the characters had little to 0 development and the story didn't click with me at all. I reached a point where i just stayed for the fanservice and Ringo, and that's it.

This could have tremendous potential tbh. The concept is really interesting. But not executed correctly. A 4/10, not even an average show.

Hope they make sequel because it had really open ending. And honestly I liked this anime so much but only 1 thing that was troublesome was forwarding medieval era into technology one (this idea I really hated).

Well, that was alright. Really good production quality, especially the music choices, with nice art, though lacking animation. I felt like the team behind this did the best they could within a budget and dealing with pretty weak material. Premise was interesting and fresh as far as isekai goes, but the story was pretty uninspired. Too many events and plot points that were various combinations of predictable, boring, unbelievable and cliched.

But there were a few really good moments sandwiched in there. Enough to say I'd watch a second season for sure. Characters are actually interesting enough that I care what happens to (some) of them, and I could see myself enjoying it alot if the plot improved, especially with how well produced this season was.

High: 7
Low: 4
Final: 5

Did this get a budget cut part way through? The early episodes sort of made sense, then there was a lot of time wasted with a hot springs scene, then the last episode was really rushed.

The intro shows an ending where all the major characters are standing in a park overlooking Tokyo Tower and a dragon flies over. As if there was a completely different ending planned.

Out of all the isekais this year, I feel like this on the level cheat magician, and half step below wisemans grandchild. It honestly became a chore to watch it half way through. Honestly the show was doomed when they did character is OP x7. Even more so when almost all are completely boring with Ringo and business dude being the exception.

Funny, I felt that Wiseman was a chore to finish it due the extra edge from the annoying villian, not to mention the poor animation that got in the final episodes. And with Isekai Cheat I didn't even bother after 5 episodes.

With the Prodigies have a hard time in another world, at least the animation quality was consistant and even avobe on some scenes and all the characters had their own charm. It knew how to mix lighthearted comedy with some grim storytelling.

I'll take Choyoyu any day of the week over other other low tier isekai shows.

Wiseman was a chore too, but at least it was the first one for 2019 where MC is OP, so it honestly didnt feel that bad. Cheat magician and this coming behind it in consecutive seasons did not help at all. Of the isekais i watched this year, i enjoyed the comedy ones a lot more than the serious ones (exception being shield hero).

The dude with fire arms survived a nuke, ok this show is now utter trash. Saw that, stopped watching the episode and deleted the file. And the good guys still win, fuck that nonsense. God I hope the Blu rays for this show do badly. What a way to fracking ruin a show that wasn't that original to begin with.

And thus a nation is born. Well that sure was...something. Okay I'm gonna be blunt here: this show was stupid. It was outlandish, it was over the top, it was alot of other things, but above all it was stupid. Now if I'm having fun I can overlook certain types of stupid like a girl literally running while carrying a missile. Heck, I got a kick out of the ridiculously absurd idea that the genius doctor literally altered her enemies' brains to become willing slaves. That was hilarious. I'm less tolerant of an incredibly stupid backstory where a mother becomes jealous of and abandons her own creation/daughter. Not to mention multiple rape teases. I was ready to give this a 6, but really a 5 is being generous. Outside of the Ringo backstory nothing really infuriated me. At worst I just rolled my eyes or gawked in disbelief. Make no mistake though, this really wasn't a good show and I doubt I'd watch anymore if we got it. There were some big, beautiful tits at least on elf girl and doctor(no, this show doesn't deserve remembering character names) and I'd love some doujins involving them or something. Regardless, generous 5/10.

Wew, finally this trash ended. WIth a long unispired speach of a man who is supposed to be a genius in the way of words. And with a long and boring combat, cause of cource it is so interesting to reuse the same villain again, even though he was bad even at his first "life". At least I hope this garbage does not get a second season.

Do you how hard to make an anime?!!!
The animators worked hard to make this anime and you just said it's trash then make ur own anime. It takes months to make an anime and we can only watch it for days..
The ending is not satisfying but it's still good.. And I hope for s2 of this anime

I actually do. And I do know that it is really hard to make a GOOD one. Sadly, it is not a good one, and making a bad one is not only much easier, but it is not even worth doing so. If you don't want to make something good - don't make it at all. I can't make an anime, so I don't try, so I will not ebarass myself with such a low quality attempt to grab cash. Also "do better" is not even a valit criticism, if I make worse shoes than someone who makes them for living - it doesn't make his shoes great you know.

Took me a while to get back to this but finally finished it. Overall, it was pretty awful. The worst thing was definitely the utilization of the characters. You have a lot of isekai stories where it focuses on a character using their special knowledge from their past world/life in this new world but in this, they have a multiple unique characters each with their own specialty and completely fail terribly at handling any of them kind of except for one, the money guy, who I can't even remember his name because he became irrelevant to the story after a few episodes.

Well at least it had two good thing, cute girls and several service episodes. Shame the series is so unpopular they don't even get doujins.

Wow from medieval to nuclear weapons in a few months. It only took the allied nations nearly 15 years total with 5 years as an ultimate priority. On the other hand I can see why they elevated Gustav to being a duke, that guy makes cockroaches look easy to kill. What's more he wasn't really wrong about the nature of politics.

Got some enjoyable watch from this silly anime, but definitely had its flaws. Like the main cast is ridiculously overpowered for people who are from earth (e.g. Akatsuki's illusions is real magic?), we never got to see where they got some of the tools (e.g. how the heck Ringo built a whole factory) and if this anime tries to be serious or comedic (running with a whole missile)

I knew it, even the friggin' ICBM can't even bleed Gustav's nose, much less kill him! >_<

He's not a prodigy? Then how the hell did he win the Prime Minister position in Japan twice in a row at that age? Maybe Gustav and Tsukasa's general definition of a prodigy is flawed from an accustomed worldview and doubt, respectively.

So who's the trio of girls/women atop the rock, maybe from the Yamato Empire? And the dude surveying the crater where Uranus Castle used to be, the Emperor perhaps?

Meh but it has it's moments. I wouldn't mind a second season since I'm still interested how it'll turn out in the end. 6/10

First of all, this anime is exciting as that you wouldn't know what would happen next, but I'm already imagine every available scenario and didn't expecting a few

Second, when magic meets technology, Spear of Fire vs Nuclear, we pretty much know which is win

Yes, the woman in the middle that has symbol on her forehead suggesting that they from Yamato Empire.
As for the man who surveying the crater site? The answer is in the anime itself (you'll find it if you notice)

Based on what I've seen, it'll be disappointing if this anime didn't have second season, since the epilogue show it all..

no shit sherlock. If you want to judge a book you need to read it and if you want to judge an anime then you need to watch it, had anyone known how bad it will get, they wouldn't have watched it but here are people like you uttering the same shitty dialog "don't like then don't watch", cause you can't handle criticism...

So they actually nuked this ass, but he survived anyway... somehow. But then dies because of a bullet, alright then.

This show could've been quite good, the premise is not that bad. But the characters were just a complete catastrophe, just a bunch of gary and mary stues that succeed for no reason. 4/10

The flag for another season / story has been risen..
As usually, it is left hanging 😑 this does't really important to watch..
It just "interesting" in some ways..

Overall :
Fan services : 7/10 (this is not an ecchi anime anyway, but they gives alot of "services")
Story background : 8/10
OP-ness : 8/10
Enemy OP-ness : 8/10
Motivation / fact / truth about the world / government : 9/10

Hope there is another season, but I didn't really expect N wait for that..
8/10

Started off with an unbelievable story, technology that couldn’t possibly happen, and a predictable plot, but it kind of grew on me. Those 3 things are present in tons of anime and for me it’s a 50/50 gamble whether I drop or not. However I want to know what happens next. Unfortunately I doubt it’ll get a S2.
