I consider this anime one of the best made in its sector, it has everything: excellent animations, good music, interesting characters, intriguing story ... it reminded me a lot of the first seasons of Aot and the promised nerverland which were also fantastic to watch, but then why is this work so little famous? Aot and Tpn when they were released immediately obtained a great following and great success while Heavely Delusion instead was not as acclaimed as it should, and I don't understand why 😕

Well it came out in an extremely stacked season, but most of the opinions on it are positive from what I've seen and it's far from unknown

Disney is the reason, they have so many great anime titles that are exclusive to Hulu/Disney+ but they don't tell people about them, thus making them all fail to get any attention. it's very rare that a series from them gets a new season. in fact it only started happening this year with" ishura," go go loser ranger", "mission Yozakura family", "undead Unluck", and "Tokyo revengers"

Maybe because it has transgender theme (boy in female body) and lots of people seem to dislike anything LGBT related.

Popularity wise it did worse because it released on Disney+ and there was basicly no marketing for it/ they used the japanese name instead of the english name for western audiences.

It still managed to do decently.

It most likely won't or even if it gets it'll be a long time later. Monthly manga+ S1 was a passion project with some of the best freelance animators in the industry. Kinda similar to OPM S1. Not same lvl but close.

In my country Disney+ hid it. No promotion anywhere, which is a shame for such a good anime.

Exactly.... That's why I just usually start reading any series that I really love after the season ends. No sequel is usually the main problem for anime onlys.

It is kinda hard to promote the show tho. A big part of it is not knowing what the hell is going on.

It has zero trans themes. Trans is when you think you’re in the wrong body, this show actually had someone in a different body, something impossible and doesn’t happen in real life.

But I’ll agree that people thinking that it does have trans themes is very off putting if still ignorant

The MC also thinks he's in the wrong body (because he is), so there's little difference to real trans people, they feel the same has happened to them.

It was very popular when it was airing. I thought it as my most favourite new anime of 2023 but later that year I changed my mind when Frieren started airing. But I partially agree with you. Now it has become underrated and nobody barely talks about it. I mean it was obvious because after it finished airing, no news about its sequel, no marketing about merch and no updates. It is like it literally became a ghost after airing.

I never heard of this anime, so it's gotta be because of the lack of promotion. I discovered it while scrolling on Hulu and was hooked after episode 1.

It's a shame because, like you said, this anime has the full package: beautiful art style, plot, character development, gorgeous music, etc., yet it's barely known. I hope we get a season 2.

Well it’s big in Japan. American isn’t the whole world lol.

Btw it hasn’t been confirmed or denied, usually a sign that points to lack of source material.

My guess there will 100% will be a SE2 in 2026
