The first episode sound stupid to me.

When the female partner ask him why don't he kill off all key member of mafia, he said he is not a hero.

Now when the airplane was hijacked, the first thing he do was acting as hero trying to save everyone instead of getting a parachute to save himself even if there is a slim chance to survive.

What a contradicting stupid plot to get the story going.
I'd rather a stupid truck-kun.


he kinda reminds me of the MC in arifureta, always acting like a bad guy but when push comes to shove he's actually a good guy

they both have white hair also xD

The OP at the very beginning? I thought we don't do that no more.

At first I thought the guy got reincarnated from another magic based world instead of "our world". That might've made an interesting concept. Ah shit I probably shouldn’t give them more ideas. We already have a sea of isekai anime and even more LNs. It’s time to stop.

Gonna be refreshing to watch an anime where they don't make friends with everyone to win. Sometimes vile scum needs to die. Wonder how this "fresh start" will change Mr. Top Assassin who's had to suppress his emotions his whole life.

During an impromptu speech I had to give for a Toastmasters session with St. Patrick's day theme, this is what I opened with:

"The Irish suffered many tragedies under British rule......And I believe they should suffer even more in the future."

Can we please stop with these stupid names for main characters ? "Lugh Tuatha Dé" who the fuck is supposed to remember a name like that, Jesus wept.

Well, from listening to original audio it's clear that for Japanese voice actors this name can be spoken or even sung very "fluidly"(not sure what would be proper word). Maybe for author and readers it really sounded like "easy to say" due to the differences in languages?

Other than that... what a way to start a new series! It felt just great, both in action and conversations.

Almost skipped over this one this season because of how generic it looked. And it is just another generic isekai- but from first impressions, is doing it right. I like how our main character is a skilled, jaded old man from the real world instead of some obnoxious teenager, or some ugly fat bastard (I love mushoku tensei, but that part bugs me just a little from time to time). I think it's doing a good job with the material it's given.

It's not gourmet food, but from the looks of it, may very well be some damn good fast food.

I think I can already rate it from the start. 7/10
Lack of ending visuals and weak sounding song makes me wanna end listening. OP isnt better anyway.
The story is copy of many, but with a little twist. The art is nice with nice fanservice, but what troubles me that they give age of girls 13/14? Shouldn't it be all characters are 18+? And kids are not so well endowed anyway ;o

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

The way people throw the word Generic to almost everything is so hilarious at this point. It resembles that phrase people say... It taste like chicken. It doesn't necessarily mean it's bad but it's still good to consume.

The premiere episode was very promising. I have not read the source material but I successfully predicted that the old dude assassin was the pre-isekaie'd young magical sniper dude we saw at the beginning; well, it was probably not hard to figure out, though that meant I knew that the old dude was going to be taken out by the Organization at any minute - probably along with that rookie.

And since they failed to kill him with that drone and soldiers, and the clock was ticking, I knew they were going to take that plane down. The Finest Assassin in the World took the bait though, despite suspecting that the drone was sent due to a tip-off by the Organization. I think he should heed his own trust lessons to the rookie..

The most frustrating character of the episode, by far, was that goddess. It is probably a thing lately to make isekai goddesses as obnoxious as possible. This goddess is not as hideous as the goddess of 'Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu' but she was arguably more annoying.

Ayo, this anime is kinda nice. The episode from start to finish is pretty enjoyable and the main character is not a fucking bitch or a pretentious fuck this time around. Finally after a month of holding this out, I got to watch it and I think I'll love it.

I very much came into this thinking, watch an episode, get it over with, drop and done.

But hmm that OP is ok and pretty intriguing.

And that opening scene with the hard cut to modern day, okay now I thinking I might want to watch this.

Interesting to see a trusting mindgame before sleeping and also the fact Lugh died in a pretty banger albeit overkill way compared to other isekai protagonists who get hit by truck-kun. Curious to see how Lugh is going to kill the Hero.

The flashback segment of the episode needed a smoother transition. You could be forgiven for thinking Lugh and his past self were completely different characters on the same mission there, for a second.

Another ossan gets reincarnated/isekaid as a kid, tensura, youjou senki, mushoku tensei, oshi no ko, then this one. And those are the only ones on top of my head and that I've watched. I hope it's gonna be like the former two where when the MC gets isekaid he does not get sexually or romantically get involved with kids unlike the latter two. Anyway, that transition was fucking badass. Cgi was not bad, overall a good episode honestly. The magic casting is fucking cringe though.

They gave us three distinct parts to work with

Future: A glimpse into his life in the far future, showcasing what it looks like in the new world.

Past: A look at his previous life in his original world, revealing his origins and how he lived.

Present: The introductory moments that set the stage for a full exploration of his life in the new world.

I really liked how they gave us a taste of what’s to come in his future, while also providing an explanation of who he was in his past—his thoughts, his actions, and the way he lived. The introduction through the Goddess set the tone before the full exploration of his present life, which unfolds in the second episode.

The pacing felt well-balanced. They didn’t dwell too much on the future at the start, leaving plenty of room to explore how he gets to that point. At the same time, it provided a solid introduction to his life, maintaining intrigue and curiosity.

The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat, Episode 1

My Thoughts:

We got shown both worlds: ours and the one where the hero is going to go.

The hero is cold-blooded and really good at his job as an assassin.

Event Summary:

A young woman is crying while a maid is applying makeup to her. The young woman tells the maid that she doesn't want to look pretty.

There is a fancy party taking place. On stage, a girl wearing golden handcuffs is presented as "Item number 6, from Swoigel, 13 years old, 155 centimeters tall, weighs 41 kilos, blonde hair, gray eyes, in excellent health, no external injuries." The guys at the party are bidding for the girl.

In the VIP balcony, a rich-looking woman remarks that they have burned the girls' villages to the ground.

The featured girl is described as "Item number 7, from Alvan, 14 years old, 145 centimeters tall, weighs 38 kilos, silver hair, blue eyes, in excellent health, no external injuries, no dental cavities." She magically obtains a key that she uses to free herself from the golden handcuffs and proceeds to kill the guys at the auction with a rifle that she also gets magically. The guys working at the auction were under the orders of Marquess Collide.

The maid applying the makeup is an ally of the girl killing the bidders.

Marquess Collide is the woman in the VIP balcony. She escapes.

Magic requires time for the chants to be voiced.

Lugh and Maha are outside the castle where the auction was taking place. They say that this was an investigation. This investigation confirmed their suspicion that Marquess Collide was behind it.

Maha says she followed the money and discovered huge profits of unknown origin. They attack villages while disguised as bandits and kidnap young girls to sell them off to other nobles.

Dia and Tarte are the undercover agents.

Lugh shoots at Marquess Collide, but it is not shown if he kills her.

A guy with a powerful rifle is killing people at a distance, aided by a woman who is his spotter. They kill six named individuals but leave the rest alone. The woman protests leaving the rest of the mafia members alive, and the guy explains that they only kill who the organization tells them and no more. Maybe the organization only wants to kill the leaders but leave the structure intact, or maybe there are undercover members of the organization. This location doesn't seem to be near the castle where the auctions were taking place.

The guy with the rifle sees a drone, gets in the van, and tells the spotter that now they are running. The border guards start to pursue them. They rig the van to continue driving and set up a gun to start shooting at the border guards. They jump from the vehicle, and the fuel spilled inside the van ignites, leaving the border guards with the impression that they eliminated their targets. Something about the drone spotting them doesn’t add up to the sharpshooter. He is much more knowledgeable than the spotter.

The sharpshooter was born into the organization and raised by it to be an assassin. The spotter asks the sharpshooter if he harbors resentment towards the organization and if he is proud of being their best tool. She asks if he has emotions, and he tells her that assassins don't need emotions—that emotions only cloud judgment. The sharpshooter is too old and is retiring to start a new job with the organization in Japan. He will become a trainer of new assassins. This mission was also a test of his skills as a teacher, which is why he teamed up with such a novice.

The spotter and the sharpshooter get fake American passports. The new identity of the spotter is Mila Martinez; the sharpshooter’s new identity is Allen Smith.

Allen Smith’s passport is shown: Type P, date of birth 12 March 1955, registered domicile California, USA, date of issue 23 November 2015, date of expiry 23 November.

The depiction of the planes is very realistic.

There is an explosion on the plane Mila and Allen are on. The news says that the plane was hijacked. Allen suspects that putting him with Mila was all part of a plan to assassinate him. The plane hijacking was just a cover for the organization to kill him. There were no kidnappers on the plane, but a mine was hidden behind the control panel. The plane was shot down by an F-16 under the excuse that the fictional hijackers threatened to hit critical infrastructure.

Allen is confused by the betrayal of the organization. He can’t figure out why they did it.

Allen finds himself in a crystal place. He asks aloud if he is dreaming. A female voice tells him he is not dreaming. The Goddess summoned Allen after his death. She offers him two options: being reborn with his memories wiped or accepting her request and being reborn in another world with his memories intact. Allen asks who the Goddess wants to kill, since that must be the reason for involving him. She tells him he will be reborn into a world of swords and sorcery. She wants him to kill the Hero.
