Where did they even get this synopsis? Is it official, because not once has she planned to eat him.

I also went into it expecting something generic, but I was fine with that. I just wanted to see a cute pig lol. Turns out it's got a lot more to it than your cookie cutter isekai. Even the protag is more unique than expected. He's not a edgy, loner, mmo player or something. He's like a mid 2000's passionate otaku! My kind of pig.

Hope they bring the books over physically. I'd be interested in reading them. The biggest negative of the anime is it's just kind of a lackluster adaptation in terms of animation

And speaking of massively misleading, what about this from the synopsis:

"The pig finds himself in the company of Jess, an innocent girl who can read people's minds, and she accepts him despite his boorish thoughts... although she does plan to eat him."

@fancyjasper It's not official, they got the synopsis from MangaUpdates (which is also not official). As a light novel reader, her wanting to eat him is never a plot point.

The official synopsis from J-Novel Club (the official licensed light novel) doesn't mention her wanting to eat him at all.

From the synopsis.

I was kind off looking forward to this with a comedy twist but I guess that's not gonna happen.

The official synopsis from J-Novel Club (the official licensed light novel) doesn't mention her wanting to eat him at all.

Also, J-Novel Club tagged this series as "dark fantasy", which is a better representation too.

Expectation: "Weird ecchi isekai."
Reality: "Road-movie with suspense, anxiety and PAIN."

I already spoiled how anime will end (Light Novel VOL 1 Ending). Brace yourself guys.
