| I somehow felt as if I were watching Big Order again?? Just isekai ver. I mean, the artstyle, the music, the directing... What a shitty ep, it was painful to finish just this one episode. What a shame I didn't get to see more of that blonde girl, maybe I will try the next ep to see something else than the shitty MC and the shitty monsters |
| Laughed harder watching this than I usually do in comedy shows, god damn man. |
| As a Isekai Enthusiast, how I'd like to see this as the R.S.! Its a revenge plot from the get-go not like the others, getting Overpowered without first going from level 1. Then it feels like ~eat all you can stomach~ but this one literally ate them RAW. I would eat them Raw myself if I was starving to death. The only thing that comes to mind was that they we're teleported into a higher level (trap-system) by touching a jewel of some sort. Our MC, sadly, didn't touch the source of Holy Water which was the glowing Jewel or Crystal (maybe strengthened by absorbing it, he is a transmuter after all). It was a fast-paced Isekai again... I hope the overall Animation isn't... (You know what I meant). |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |

EDIT: I'm onto your sarcasm ;) After all that arguing on Kenja no Mago board, I can vouch for his seriousness. I've seen him on the Vinland Saga board calling it bad, the main reason being that it has no waifus. It's most likely that he's being seriously, I was just hoping by the way he put it that he was being sarcastic. |

| Not bad, not bad. The direction is a bit weird but it was ok. It seems that they skipped some things but as I'm an anime-only watcher it was a good episode. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 I believe in freedom of expression. |
| I like it very much. I haven't read the manga or light novel so I can't compare but it seems very interesting. |
| I feel like I could actually work on finishing That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime and basically get the same thing with a more charming protagonist. I'll give this one more episode but it's probably gonna wind up in the eternal On Hold pile after that unless it shapes up. |
 |
| Pretty good. Idk why you all aren't happy with it. Arifureta totally met my expectations! |

| As someone who doesn't know the source material, I'm going to wait and see, but this was not a good start. The MC got stupid edgy stupid fast. And I feel like whoever's directing it is frequently trying to over-dramatize, which just made it comical in a bad way. For a similar kind of betrayal followed by redemption series, Tate Yuusha has this beat out by a long stretch comparing first episodes. |
| First ep was just too edgy, the transformation of the MC was just bad, uninspiring and really just not believable. Gonna stick with this anime, but this is TOO EDGY in a bad way. Maybe my middle school self would had loved this shit. |
| 「Self Aware Cringy Weeb」 |
| Holy hell, that was pathetic |
| I don’t like how the MC did a complete 180 in just one episode or the ugly CGI. I hope this doesn’t become a harem. By the way, why did they skip the prologue? |
  |
| I kinda hoped this going to be Grimgar like anime and for few seconds at start it may pretend to be, then MC Not a Haruhiro turned into Not a Bell Cranell... alright, I have Danmachi in similar value, then MC got Dungeon Seeker complex with vengeance and super quick super boost power and, eh, not types I really like but I guess I can pick one in each season so I will try to go with Arifureta this time. |
 |
| So far so good. 8/10 |
 |
| Ah, that went from totally uninteresting and blunt to pretty decently good. I'm still keeping the negative reviews in mind, this could go the wrong way very easily. So, is he going to be an overpowered Naofumi. With a mix of Kameki as well, bringing a gun to a world ruled by magic and swords seems like a nice touch. The animation could use a lot of improvements though, and the use of CGI is not helping at that in any way. |
| Man this is garbage, I tried the manga but dropped that when he got the motorbike and the 'deal with it' sunglasses meme, the series was so fucking edgy I cut myself reading it, so I thought maybe I was wrong, give the anime ago... nope still edgy as fuck. |

| first time reading the manga before the anime the light novel must be hella different 2 the manga |
| Holey moley that was so bad it made me wanna game end myself. Even Overlord III has better CGI, The Room movie has better directing and School Days has less cringy dialogue. Who in they right might funded this ? |
| Sum of shitty anime stereotypes. |
 |
| i don't mean it in a bad way but wth did i just watch 😆, dark hero/anti hero? this is unique for sure if cgi is only thing u bitch about ur no critik just lame hater looser 😆 |

| OOOF!!! Filler ;D Filler ;D |
 Decide once every certain number of years which members of the ruling class will oppress and crush the people in parliament: this is the true essence of bourgeois parliamentarism, not only in the constitutional parliamentary monarchies but in the most democratic republics - The State and Revolution (September 1917), Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov "Lenin". |
| Good episode but it feels a little bit rush |
 |
| Not a great start imo. Narration in the first 5 minutes followed by an immediate flashback scene trips red flags. Oh and main character didn't stay weak for very long. OP for the rest of the episodes LOL. weak mc my ass |
join the hyper going home club!  |
| Today I learned that the best/only way to deliver exposition in any scene is apparently to have the main character explain everything to himself in detail, and make his unnecessary inner dialogues audible Oh, and flashbacks ^_^ That aside, I was entertained and I am interested in watching more. This seems like another series that could serve me well when I'm tired and want to watch something without having to engage my brain too much - which is just about how I end most days |

| Not that bad, terrible CG monsters aside, this will be easier to watch than expected. |
 |
| I kinda hesitate watching this kind of Isekai. Actually, its good in the beginning, the Introduction keeps it simple as usual. Ofc the MC got so much ability in this start. The way he got powered up kinda remembering me to Bofuri, while eating that monster meat. When meeting that scenes, i thought the Bofuri do such an incredible cuteness scenery while attaching to a little girl. But, with this Hajime, i dont feel that way, obviously. Hmm. I guess its okay, nothing to complain. The only only thats serves as a plot armoured was that Holy Water. It really deserved my next level attention. Lets see how the explanations reveal more of it, rather seeing that crystal as a savior only. Oh, well, thats it. Not bad not good for the world-building too, like general type of Isekai. A dungeon, a magic kingdom, etc. He was not gonna be my beloved MC, currently. But his raged there was understandable. The way he introduced was fine by me. The pacing for the rest of this episode was okay too, it fits so much that i don't have anything to complain. Lets see how he deal the development while seeing another human, and girls, ofc. Referencing the OP and ED animation, that would be some serious relation happen. I wonder how good that can be. The curiosity reach its max. So far its an average level of judgement, showing how 3GCGI can't help much with that monster battle. Not gonna hope much for the next episode, while seeing Hajime still levelling up soon. |
