I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World and Became Unrivaled in The Real World, Too (light novel)
| This was the worst, most poorly written, ill-conceived show I have ever watched. I wanted to quit this show by episode 3, and after finishing it, I wish I had. The plot was just a series of contrivances piled on top of each other. "Just happened to find this door while looking for a bathroom", "super pig just happened to decide to live with you", "front door happens to have not been closed". And not to mention the author's complete disregard for any type of common sense. Bringing monsters and otherworlders to the real world and taking them on walks or bringing them to school? Not understanding that your whole body structure changed overnight? Bring a girl to a dangerous otherworld because you carelessly let her walk through your sage house? It is the worst. The author's other work, The Fruit of Evolution, was absolute shit, as well. This is, without a doubt, the Studio Deen of light novelists. How they have gotten both of their works adapted is something I will never be able to understand. If you think there is an isekai worse than this, I would like to know so I can avoid it |
| can’t be the worst isekai when Conception exists |
 |
| worst script and storyboard I've ever seen. The asanine uninspired dialogue, looking-at-nothing camera angles, idiotic lazy developments with no logic or base on reality... the source material could never be as bad as this amateur high school project level adaptation. if some effort had been put into this it would've been an average, mediocre isekai, instead of the down right shit that it is, a stain on the curriculum of anyone who took part in this project. |

Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |

I enjoyed it, because it is a fantasy not reality, it is not supposed to be like our real world, it is supposed to be another world where unrealistic things happen. Yeah so they brushed over some things, who cares, it wasn’t about those things, it was about the main story and to be fun. So your complaints based on your one personal opinion are irrelevant and unimportant. Here is an idea, you create an anime the way you want, since that is all your care about. |

It is a fantasy world where unrealistic things can happen … it is not based in reality … it is supposed to have unrealistic events and situations, that is the entire point. How did you not realize that? And the dialogue and animation are fine, your complaints are personal preferences. |

When I say reality, I mean, for example, the way the characters think, interact, act and react. But even within the realm of fiction, there are some brazen and silly things that shouldn't be done for the sake of moving the plot along. Many overpowered mc isekai do that in a way that's tactful, funny or original. Not this one. I didn't even mention animation but actually, it was awful. the last 3 episodes basically consist of dialogue, a still shot of the ground or the sky while shit is happening, another still shot of the aftermath of the shit that happened and a few seconds of 3d models turning their heads or walking slowly. Pretty objectively shit. |

| not even close you gotta watch more isekai... or don't |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
Gl0rp said: Isekai Cheat Magician. That's the worst Isekai anime I've watched by a mile. I'ts literally done like a isekai formula script with bad production. I honestly believe they just took the absolute basic isekai formula and animated it with maybe 10% added script so it wouldn't be a copy from what the creators learned in whatever school anime creators go to. Actually that is one of my favorites, it one of the more straightforward and down to earth isekai, it knows it is fantasy and not reality so it goes for it. What do you expect from a non-realistic isekai ? I believe most people like you don’t actually understand the genre |

You don’t speak English or did not learn correct grammar in school. Only a child would say “nothing burger”, not a mature leaned adult. Look, I’m all fine with discussing valid points, but everything you complained about was just silly and exaggerated, so it was a waste of all our time. There are other comments on here that were better than your’s. |

If you think there is an isekai worse than this, I would like to know so I can avoid it Among all the Isekai series I have seen, this is definitely gotta be the worst one However with that saying there must be many undiscovered shitty isekai seri which we may haven't watched yet, so telling that it's the worst isekai of all time is going too far imo At least it got some good pet anime characters & a decent concept so nope definitely not the worst of all time This is not the worst isekai, not even one of the worst anime, it is enjoyable and fun, especially for someone trying to escape reality, which isekai is all about. I have seen some anime that people praise a lot, but when I watched them, they are awful, this anime made me laugh, even at the silly parts, and it helped to relax due it being so unrealistic. I don’t really think people understand the isekai genre. |

What do you expect from a non-realistic isekai ? I believe most people like you don’t actually understand the genre Actually I know and love the genre and that is why I think mentioned anime is the worst. Isekai is a genre where bonkers ideas works and is in general pretty creative. Isekai Cheat Magician is not to the extreme. It's the isekai genre stripped unto its bones, even I'd say to its marrow and then added a tiny amount of cosmetics to make the marrow not uniform in colour. Ok, I apologize for saying your do not understand the genre, you obvious know the genre, thank you for explaining. But what your mentioned is why I like it so much, it doesn’t mess around, it has two people taken to another world, they learn magic, they are over powered, they help defeat enemies, meaning it is straightforward and does not try to be fancy or exaggerated. Some isekai are good, but kind of over the top, this one isn’t, being bare bones made it better than others. |

Pretty objectively shit. I don’t think any anime has realistic situations, conversations, or reactions, isekai is no exception, so what anime do you think has realistic situations, conversations, or reactions? I actually like the character interaction, it is better than many other isekai, in that it had the MC affect other people’s lives. He saves Kaori from the thugs, when no one else noticed or ignored the situation, even as he was before, getting beat up by the thugs. He acts better than that jerk model and helps the modeling crew out, everyone recognizes his humble sincere attitude. His forgiving and loving attitude toward his siblings changes the twins attitudes towards him, now they respect him. It has a lot of situations that show his amazing character and how it helps or affects others, other isekai don’t have situations like these. You hated that so much? And the character design is good, the background art is great, the action scenes are well done, the effects are good, the lighting is nice. Yes, it makes cuts here and there, but remember they are limited on time and budget, so it must be for a reason, or are you accusing them of being lazy? That’s hard to know for sure. You can’t hold every anime to the highest standard, having some patience and understanding is key. Also, it wasn’t talked about, but the music and sound affects were good as well. |

Gl0rp said: I understand your point, but I guess because it stripped down to meet the standard, in my eyes it was different than the other isekai I watched. ejleon said: Ok, I apologize for saying your do not understand the genre, you obvious know the genre, thank you for explaining.

So for example a action movie have a established structure it should follow to be sort of mainstream, accepted as a action movie and have any chance at all to be funded and released. Anime industry works the same way. Isekai Cheat Magician follows the isekai structure to such an extent that it was nearly unwatchable for me because after a couple episodes it felt like I was watching a media student doing their master class on the genre. It was kinda like having fancy food all for time, then you go to a mom and pop restaurant, with a simple but good meal, it just hits different. |

Wow, talk about a textbook red herring. Never said anything about it being lazy, or anything about the fact that the main character helps other people. Even if i get into specifics, I get a feeling based on your responses so far it won't be worth a damn, but still: Yes, it has single digit redeeming points, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered watching the whole thing. But the same way raping someone makes you a rapist, murdering someone makes you a murderer, or stealing makes you a thief, being predominantly shit, makes this show shit. That would be the whole point of why I said that this has the worst Storyboard and Script I've ever seen. I didn't say the art was shit, or the voice acting was shit, or that the sound mixing was shit. Oh, but "all anime has unrealistic conversations and situations" you say... "it's about preferences". No. There is a point where you can tell that something is different, unnatural, inferior, lesser than. Like watching Oblivion npcs talking on the street about rumours next to a pile of bodies and a rampaging orc still on a killing spree, and pretending THAT is just as good and well thought out as the average conversation of a visual novel. It's not about having unrealistic standards for everything I watch, just having the bare minimum standard of "doesn't insult my intelligence and wastes my time". If you're trolling, gth. |

Avoiding the issue much … You said general comments … I mention specific situations of character interaction that are good in the anime … You use Ad Hominem to avoid addressing anything specific and to attack me personally … Look if you cannot mention something specific to address, then your general comments have little weight or merit to them. I think that’s cowardly |

| It's not even isekai. It's semi-isekai or plainfully fantasy. Isekai would usually mean, going into another world without hope of getting back... Anyway, enough talking about the meaning of the word and I won't reply to it. This guy gets to use a gate. Reminds me of Steins;Gate, Gate and forgot the others. SecondEmulation said: I think with any anime you need to have low expectation. You can't always come into like your going to critique it but at the same time everyone already has a genre and style of anime that they like. First sentence. If you like it, you get hyped and get to want more. That's okay. 2nd sentence. Just don't be a critique, like it if you like it, dislike it if you dislike it, if you hate it, drop it. Don't even add it into the completed list. 👀 |

| 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. |
| Worst isekai than this? Nope, can't find it, this is already the lowest bar. As worst as this? Here, Isekai Smartphone, Kenja no Mago, Assassin Isekai, Arifureta, and probably more that I don't even bother to watch. |
