| I've read the manga before and it follows a trend of transported to fantasy world, Demon Lord, save the world, etc. Surprisingly, I think this has better visuals than some of the other fantasy anime this season, at least the similar ones. Oh and the abilities part...where Akira ended up being on the short of the stick. The "assassin" abiilty was bestowed upon him but yeah, this pretty much jumpstarts the main story. They'll probably adapt the general tone of the show as the series has quite a bit of content. |

| Novelist Matsuri Akai's lone series is quite the premiere alright, of hard-headed assassin killing...which starts from the stereotypical Isekai setting. A class suddenly being summoned into another world for the usual "heroes defeating the demon king" type to find out their statuses and classes, and this is where Akira Oda and his class start with variable skills, with some to-be-expected people playing the role of the hero. However, Akira sensing something amiss, other than his role as "assassin" to privately investigate the matter with the king and his daughter, though killing them now would get their potential plan out of the way. For now, the class rallied behind the genius of the chosen hero Satou Tsukasa, and thus trained by knight commander Saran Mithray, though him personally sensing Akira on the side to strike a conversation to help him figure out more about their world and personally train him, it's definitely two sides of the coin being a lone assassin who's stealth is at level max, against everyone else being stereotypical, and more or less, a girl hiding in the darkness awaiting his reply to see how much the kingdom has sacrificed for their summoning, as much as the class is doing their best to get the job done alongside Commander Saran in defeating a formidable minotaur monster. Sunrise (or Bandai Namco Filmworks rather), came out guns blazing for this one right out of the park. Welcome back, and rise from your grave to deliver Sunrise Smooth once again! |

| I expected it to be somewhat trashy... and yeah, it is. But it does look rather pretty and I like the setting, especially MC being an assassin, so I might as well give it a chance. |
Point for having a MC that's not pathetic or completely naive like "the usual template". I'm interested to see where this goes, for now. |
| Amazing will be the word to decribe the first episode ! |
| ~iska |
| felt like I just watched 2 episodes not 1, that's how rushed it feels. |
| lmao why this captain always have his finger pointed on up , |

| Ah, yes, I won't trust anyone and keep a low profile - but this random guy I don't know anything about I will trust for no apparent reason! |
| Why there's a obviously in the title? I am really getting my GOAT Aqua vibes from Akira for multiple reasons(including va). It actually really praise worthy when guy actually uses his brain immediately after getting Isekaied. Credits to him. Normally in this type class summon type ones there a betyral theme right. So it didn't happen (yet?) is change of pace. So it's not a edgy revenge story or I maybe I am prematuring. That knight captain is honestly great guy maybe too good. Normally a Isekai mc doesn't get this smooth of a start unless you are a slime. Genuinely intriguing plot so far and production quality looks amazing. And the silver haired elf? Waifu is coming next episode. This looks really tasty food. |
| Spoiler alert! The knight's real name is Oscar François de Jarjayes. |
| Now this show looks really good. It seems to be taking the standard trope of the "outcast" of the group dealing with a rotten summoner, but stepping it up a notch with excellent animation quality, and making the outcast member a leading figure in the group of isekai's - me like |

| @UtakaSenpai This is my only real complaint about the episode. The whiplash from extreme doubt to immediate trust was annoying. If he feigned trust, that would've been one thing, but he poured out way too many feelings and too much info far too quickly. |
| way above the average isekai. good. |

| Amazing ep Sure Akira is quiet, but thank God that he isn't a lame mc. Kinda fast paced for a isekai, but I wasn't surprised that this gave sum slight eminence in the shadow vibes. Great animation so far. Commander a real one. I wonder who that hooded lady was. Perhaps she knows of the truth of the kingdom as well. Ik that hero was finna be dumb asl. Bruh, I was tryna see that shadow magic, but they bamboozled us. 10/10 |

at the very start of the episode, i noticed the "summoning spell text" is actually all arabic written .. let me try to translate it:
"using the souls of the sacrifices, we are summoning a new entity from another world, so don't waste the souls of our sacrifices, summon a new entity from another world to become the pillar of power we rely on, we are calling the souls of the innocent sacrifices of virgins, and grateful souls who don't hold a grudge or a sin since they were born, please don't get angry about presenting you with these virtuous souls as a sacrifice, since they willingly presented themselves to your cause, and to offer you the great power, so please dwellers of planet Earth accept the sacrifice of these righteous holy souls, and use the power given to you for the greater purpose, i seek you great entities to spawn in front of me, and present your great aid for my call"
in order for me to read it all i had to watch the scene on 0.25 speed 1/4 of the normal speed all this "spell" is written in arabic at first, then the written language for some reason is mirrored it captured my attention because usually a "magic spell" would be written in ancient nordic, japanese hiragana, sometimes in latin, and sometimes in hebrew, and some times in a made up nonsensical gibberish. so for the spell to be written in a language i can actually READ! this is new!
i doubt anyone would actually care about such a detail.. but i TRULY managed to read the entire spell!

| @Kurtadam13 Spectacular detail! Thanks for sharing your find! |
| Summoning an entire class is something new. Princess looks super sus and apparently just tricked the hero. Wow, this is kinda shit. I mean they literally just met yet the royal knight is talking about starting a coup against his king with the random stranger. MC randomly talks about killing someone, who so far has not even done anything wrong he knows of. But its isekai and tbh I eat that shit up anyway.. |

| I am getting the edgy Arifureta, Iseleve, and Sokushi Cheat vibe from the premise, but I might end up enjoying this anime for whatever reason x The OP slaps wow! |
