I've read manga for this before and seems they tried to get the comedy from that into this show. Funny interactions between the main cast and Hinata is fun to watch for the character's personality.

Anime also seems to be self aware of its own ideas lol.

Definitely a popcorn comedy of the season and enjoyable if you're in it for laughs.

Out of all the Isekai reincarnation shows this season, mangaka Yuu Tsurusaki's Fantasy Bishoujo EASILY holds the most promise. Also, newbie director Sayaka Yamai is off to a rocking start after being Odd Taxi's episode director.

This has a Tsukimichi feel to it since this is an Isekai fantasy comedy, except that the MCs are 2 men, one norm and the other the fantasy girl knockout. Also, the OP has references and parodies alike to give this show a good headstart, aside from Yoshiki Fukuyama's OP being actually damn great, and Luce Twinkle Wink's ED is fine. OLM is on a roll, especially Team Yoshioka since last year's Odd Taxi.

The 2 32-year-old childhood friends-turned-men: Komi-like popular man Jinguuji Tsukasa and Tadano-like average man Hinata Tachibana, are living their office lives...until the usual mysterious Isekai sequence happens with the shitty Goddess of Love and Beauty, and gender-swaps Hinata into a girl, doing the usual "Heroes defeat Demon Lord" stuff that's a curse before these 2 men "fall in love" by consciously tempting with each other. Will it be "bros before hoes" or being in love?

If a "princess carry" ain't enough, how 'bout a "Ikemen carry" lols to fend themselves from some monster whom looks cute but is creepy. Jinguuji's OP as heck for comedy, and Hinata's a total genderbender knockout whose drunk dreams caught onto him, which the Goddess granted to Hinata.

Is that Doraemon's door at the end???

Well, the title in and of itself is VERY descriptive: the Life with an Ordinary Guy who Reincarnated into a Total Fantasy Knockout. A great start though, a close 1-to-1 of the manga. I'm gonna enjoy the hell out of this, the rom-com between men.

So will this be a Shounen AI anime? dunno maybe, Just watching Yuri already makes me want to cry especially Shounen AI, forgot not to read the synopsis maybe episode 1 will be the last episode for me. That's right, you can't possibly fall in love with a guy, uwek. From the first minute I suspected that something was wrong, it turned out to be true, if only I didn't watch episode 1 and immediately watched episode 2 maybe I would continue this anime, damn not reading the synopsis is a fatal mistake.

"Let's die for the sake of reincarnation in another world." Thanks goddess, but a guy turns into a loli girl isn't that ridiculous. So the goddess also has LED to interact with humans, it's interesting that they usually do telepathy. Are u sure you've wiped his memory, but good instincts can be tricky. If only you didn't forget to wiped his memory maybe this wouldn't be so troublesome.

"Ore ga koitsu o sukininaru mae ni!" Oioioi, This is really Shounen AI zzz if they like each other it will be bad I hope they don't fall in love with each other. A curse? Did I miss something? It probably doesn't matter, lol. They plan to climb the mountain first, do girls have weak stamina even though you were a guy? Ma, in love with you? That's not possible. When they were on the veranda like that a bear appeared, was it kuma-san? Idk. Ofc, this isn't isekai op magic, so humans fighting bears are bullshit they immediately run after encountering bears. It's just interesting, how do they do romantic things, is it how to carrying a princess? So cute but yeah she was a guy before.



What? Jinguuji level 70? I think there are no stats and they start at 0. Zero kara hajimeru power count. It's just that Tachibana, in exchange for turning into a loli girl, has to change her to level 1. Isn't that Doraemon door, or maybe it's your room door?

LMAO Gender-bender YAOI. LOL
That was a potential joke.
SO basically you and your homie got isekaied. But your homie became a beautiful girl. On the top of that you made the goddess angry and She putted a curse on you that makes you feel affectionate towards your homie. LOL
for comedy it's pretty great.


Anyway you can bang your homie.🤣😂😂

It's kind of shocking to me that this episode was unironically one of the better premieres of the season so far lol. It was pretty basic and consistent overall, wasn't necessarily a funny series but I wasn't bored or tired of it and had a wacky concept that seems to be decently executed for the time being. It's weird to see a 'homiesexual' anime like this not gonna lie, but hey, I'll take this show over the Prince one that aired today easily in terms of fantasy-comedy anime when it comes to first episodes alone.

I don't know what to rate it exactly from this alone and I don't know what the long-term potential is for this series but I hope it can have a run that doesn't have this lose its novelty factor and freshness since gimmick shows like these generally get stale pretty fast, especially gimmick-based isekai series like this or another example would be the one where the Hero is Overpowered but Overly Cautious anime or whatever that's called. If it can be fresh for the run, would be a decent way of killing 20 minutes between my university lectures every Tuesday.

Good news for everyone that likes this show, since they adapted only 3 chapters into the first episode and the content shown in the opening/ending/previews indicates that they adapt till chapter 66, we will get 24 episodes.

And for everybody thats says its gae, it feels more like the author wanted to write a romcom but with a twist, maybe a bit to much twist.

Watching this in RAW is a pain but that's alright because I can follow the manga anyways at first sight, both of the MC's inner thoughts reminded me of Kaguya-sama all the sudden but with a gender bender tag and isekai plot. OP really reminds me of an old song from some game series and I like it! Animation is very solid in this one for sure! Tachibana is really into chicks huh, what a chad to go to a mixer just for that objective but that makes sense since Tsukasa always be the boy version of madonna in the school anyways my braincell disappeared, how in the world is Tsukasa stays in the same form after he got reincarnated :o? Anyways prior to the reincarnation, poor Tachibana couldn't find a goddess lady :(

Okay I was talking about Tachibana but then a HALF NAKED GODDESS appeared out of the blue and the name itself is hilarious af but her bow ability + the animation is superb! AT THIS MOMENT MY WIFI DIED #WhyIhaterawsandlegitonly1080pqualitywasavailable OK IT'S BACK AGAIN! I like how they use rainbow holograms in her character design too instead of leaving her skin color totally bland. Also sharpy teeth blonde hair girl is supposedly Tachibana right xD? Anyways I love to see some adventures to fight demons. I like how both of the MC are always in their inner thoughts all the time and I wonder, "When will they go kiss kiss fall in love" :V? Also I wonder about that thing in the sky, is that some kind of symbol or something because in the manga, that thing was not shown lol. Anyhow Hinata is literally Kaguya during that flower scene trying to get Tsukasa's attention while Tsukasa is acting like Shirogane to imply the same thing but different approaches I guess xD Also since it's an isekai world, I expected that cute animal who appeared out of nowhere to turn into a scary creature plus this animal reminds me of a Pokemon or is that the reason why they chose OLM Studio to animate this solely it's easier for them to make this cool ass effects to these monsters :o Tsukasa having that smooth punch is what I call him an absolute muscular giga chad now! Overall first episode is amazing, this is honestly one of the greatest isekai comedy yet that hits the comedy itself near spot on!

Don't know what i just watched but it was great, the characters make for a great comedy duo and the genderbender part makes it even better.
The characters seem to have feelings for each other now that one of them changed gender but neither of them will admit it which was nice.
Can't wait to see what more we can expect from this anime.

Just reading the synopsis, this one wasn't in my plan to watch but once I watched the trailer that changed to "I have to watch this" xD.

The OP alone is already pretty funny.

Hilarious start but I have to say, have I been tricked to watch a BL? Aside from the fact that Tachibana turned into a cute girl, it's got all the vibes haha. Looks like it's going to be a fun watch.

I'm all for more gender bender adaptations happening because there a lot of good manga within the genre that haven't been animated yet. This one is... kinda stupid though. But hopefully it'll work out as a gag show at least

This is probably the best Isekai/"I can't believe it isn't an Isekai" I've seen so far this season and I'd still only give it about a 7/10.

Lmao the episode barely even started and I was already laughing so much, even the OP visuals were so funny, loved it, the OP itself is pretty great too.

This episode was VERY entertaining, I was laughing throughout the episode, this is the first new Winter 2022 anime that I've enjoyed so much. Had a smile throughout the duration of the episode.

The world is pretty generic but the concept in which there are two best friends who are isekai-d and one of them turns into kawai girl and then they are supposed to defeat the demon lord to return to their world and also they are cursed to fall in love is something really unique, amazing and interesting.

I'm having high hopes for this anime as I greatly enjoyed the first episode, it has started on a high point, hoping this level of comedy is maintained throughout all episodes.

The ED was pretty great too, the accompanying visuals were great too. The animation was good too, no complaints.

The comedic timings were on-point, I'm not lying when I say I was laughing for 90% of the episode. Everything was just perfect, I'm already loving this, gonna go rate it 9/10 already.

Can't wait for next episode!!!!

Ugh, so this Straight dude never got girls, and was lonely, and now he got reincarnated with his friend who got attention from the girls and was super popular, but now these two straight dudes want to bang each other? So the lonely guy who wanted a girl now suddenly gets no girls, but is attracted to his best friend for some reason and vice versa? What a trash situation for him, I'd be pretty pissed off, I'd take Re:Zero world over getting turned into a woman that wants dudes with my current brain.

Lmfao THIS. I'd never watch a BL ever ever ever, and If I was in their situation I'd prob kill myself, I'm not banging dudes as a straight dude(mentally). If I was a girl and I could be gay then that might be one thing but a curse that makes me want to bang dudes when I still think the way I do now Is not okay with me.

Man, as a fan of the manga, I've been looking forward to this one for awhile and it's everything I was hoping for and more. The manga's unique humor certainly carries through, even if some of the language is toned down from the English translation I read. This is a top one to watch, for sure.

Great episode! Tachibana's wish was granted and he was granted a form of a beautiful blonde haired women and got isekai'd into another world with his best friend, Jinguuji. However, they both are falling in love with each other and try to stop it from happening xD. Jinguuji is really OP as well lol. Great start to the series!

Looking forward to the next episode!

No homo: the anime

I love gender bender stories in general, and it's nice to see it in anime form.

I also kinda like how Jinguji was already kinda in love with Tachibana even before the genderswap. He's just vehemently denying it lmaooooo. If this were a BL, they'd get drunk and sleep together by the second chapter lmaooooo.

Well, a gender bender isekai between two men who are trying not to fall in love with each other? Love is War: Isekai Edition. It's pretty fun and I've smiled throughout the whole episode but didn't manage to laugh a lot. It had a fun start so hopefully it stays so. I love Jingui's confidence and the perfect VA. OP and ED are alright.
