the characters are bland af and the pacing is ridiculous. fr these main characters could just be background characters, not even side characters but background. The overpowered stuff was satisfying and funny and he is quite good looking but thats about it so far...

So for people that do not know. I for one do not know how much studios try to take from something like the manga and try to incorporate it into the show. Just to state facts, this one episode is essentially 2 chapters with about 50-55 pages each. Of course, much of the content is either condensed, taken away, or Swapped with other events.
AS I have stated, I do not know if I would have liked the anime if I hadn't read the manga or not. Personally, I do not know if Silver Link is afraid that they can't fit the whole story into 13 episodes or not. I just feel that the first episode would have been better had they just done the first chapter and just extend the animation.

Well it was interesting. I wonder if the story will be about the MC being the rebirth of the new demon lord or not. He nuked the royalty while barely blinking and also recruited a new wife who clearly has immense power also. As the first of the new season Ive watched so far I'm interested.

Huh, the skipped the first few chapters where they show him facing the hero 2000 years ago and the deal they make. Shame as it helped characterisation And his reincarnation was only mentioned in passing.
Overall a solid adaptation though.

Advice to anyone reading: Don't expect too much from it. It's not some deconstruction of the whole magic school anime, just a fun entertaining one with a confident Chad as MC. It's nothing deep just something fun to watch.

yeah alot of the stuff isnt the same as in the manga (idk about light novel). The fights are way cooler tho and i wish we got to see the talking baby Anos/ Arnos / whatever his name is cause it keeps changing.

Yeah I wanna see more of the parents and their "SASUGA ARNOS-CHAN" stuff. They're the best manga parents I've ever seen. Idiot pervert Dad and worry-wart doting mom, absolutely adorable.

OKEY!

This was better than some over rated korean shit adoption ,ngl
But I feel like they rushed with the events , like we've already had 3 fights in one episode technically
And I kinda felt like there is no built up in between the scenes or the way the story progressed ,yeah i know its only one episode in

I remember the source material starting out in a completely different manner. Not sure if I liked how they portrayed Misha. Turned her into a generic shy heroine that follows around MC. Her character development wae different in the LN if I remember correctly.

It's pretty basic so far, and there wasn't much information conveyed so I was confused as to why a lot of things were happening. I'll give it the next episode.

I see this going where Anos learns to live in the current world over actual magic fights. A pure action show with a protagonist this OP could get boring really fast.

At the beginning, the white-haired came to challenge Anos, but he was killed and resurrected again and again. I almost had pity on him. Then I was shocked by the setting that even the heart beat can attack. (゚O゚)

When testing the power, Anos got a 0 because his power was too high. Then he answered all the questions wrong, which made him judged as a misfit. (T▽T) (Did someone change the history secretly, so Anos gave all the wrong answers? Is it the final boss?)

After that, he brought his girl friend Misha to his house. What made me feel incredible was the acceptance of his parents. Their son is only one month old, but has been so powerful? ps: The mother is kawaii! カワ(・∀・)イイ!!

After dinner, the white-haired came with his brother and wanted to crucify our shujinkou, but his brother killed him first…… This time I thought the white-haired was going to die, but he was resurrected again. ( ´▽`) From here we can see that Anos is very kind and attaches great importance to family ties.

At last, Anos has finally learned that he is judged as a misfit. What will he act later? I am looking forward to his later performance. o(^o^)o

Generally speaking, this anime is not bad. It is suitable for watching after work. It can make me feel relaxed and can also be used to kill time.

I watched the first episode which, honestly was fine for what it is. Then I read the synopsis and noticed how the information described there, wasn't really conveyed all that well (if at all). So it feels to me like they skip through a bunch of the exposition.

Very promising start. I looked at the poster at first and thought: "Yeah, here comes your typical isekai/fantasy show that's gonna be mediocre and full of cliches".

However, unexpectedly not a single thing annoyed me in the first episode. Overpowered antihero who is not afraid to be violent, but also does not seem to be evil at root? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP

Also I really like the artstyle and the animation.

Yep, thats what quite a few people and myself have been complaining about. But, hey, if people can enjoy it as is, kudos to them.

Damn!!

I had no expectations yet they failed with the story, pacing, and timing compared to the Manga. I know it is based on the LN/WN but the manga did it all the better, and did not skip the prologue.

Only good thing so far is the Animation.

Some Anime it might be better without the Prologue, but not this one. The prologue explains so much in a short time. Yet they waste time showing him sit in a goddamn chair to wait for the first battle or showing Misha as someone noone cares about, as a tragic figure or something.

And the pacing and atmosphere do not live up to how the material is nor how Arnos the character is.

Generic as hell, but at least they did two things to offset it some. They had the good sense to make the OP protagonist alpha as could be, instead of some self insert avatar kun. And they inserted some comedy into it. so you don't need to take it seriously.

not bad, but i do wish they didnt skip the explanations in the beginning. it would have been nice to some people who were confused (aka my friends). the mom did explain some stuff, so i guess the skipping is fine. i do get a small feeling of "the irregular at magic high school" but it's still different in its own way, i guess. hopefully this will turn out nicely.

Great premiere episode! What an OP MC! Animation and art are both good. I'll probably like the other female MC with a pigtail, she looks cool and powerful. It's also great coz it has some comedic parts. The Demon King got a cross-shaped score, will probably bring misfit. Haha

Sigh. Where do I even start.
Like don't misunderstand me, I fucking love the manga. But what is this adaptation even?

Changing character design is fine, but why did they remove Anoth's monologue is beyond me. Like most of funny shit is 90% from Anoth's monologue and removing it makes him looks unnecessarily edgy.

Also, are they really going to skip Anoth's reincarnation and growing up? I really hope they don't cause this trash is going to be in garbage if they don't include that scene.

Why does the mom look like one of his classmates? She fawns over him even more than the other girls.



she said he is one month old but he looks like 20 years...so it's normal for the mom to look like them if she is also 20-25 ... i guess?

I'd say ... They really ruined the adaptation. This is soo baad in comparison to its Manga version.

Art wise, it probably follows Light Novel design but for those who have read the manga, they'll realize that manga design is far wayyyyyyyyyy betterr no doubt

The pacing is weirdly a bit too fast. There are way more details in manga version that makes it a lot differents to your usual generic school fantasy storyline.

Lastly, they litereally CHANGED the PoV from Anos to using 3rd person PoV. It makes the story so empty because Anos' monologue is also what makes the story great. All in all, I feel like Im gonna cry from seeing how badly its adapted.

I am a Manga reader, so some things were weird for me - but I can't complain about the animation and the voices, it's exactly as I imagined them.

If you have any interest, the art in the manga is also fantastic, the girls are even cuter and the boys more handsome.
