Dropping it.

At this point is just boring. The show tries to do too many things and doesn't deliver on anything.

Is this a power fantasy? Why is OP so weak (hasn't trained for 3.5 years, gets a power-up by chance).

Is this an Isekai? OP doesn't seem to use his past knowledge or experience for anything, we got a trauma scene once, but since then it's done and gone.

Is this an hero journey? But again no growth, not even emotionally.

A romance? The redhead doesn't seem to care that much, or him.

An harem? The other heroines are gone and forgotten.

Is it just echi? The scenes show legs at at most, or just violence...

Slice of life? Maybe, but then what about all the sudden death, abuse and trauma...

The whole thing never goes anywhere. It's like playing a series of unfinished games. Our MC tries to be OP but stays mediocre, tries love his family then his family is gone, tries to romance a girl then girl runs away (x3: first NTR, then forced by plot, then girl literally leaves), starts gaining political leverage then is teleported in the middle of nowhere, tries to be a hero but fails to save everyone (and nobody gives a fuck). It feels like playing a game and trying to do 20 side quests in parallel just for the plot to suddenly advance and reach the end of the game with all those quests incomplete.

A family reunion gone wrong!

I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats.

fantastic episode, brilliant. Paul looks like a cunt here but he obviously has been through a lot. Eris and Rudy at the end almost got me tearing up.
