| It's been like two years since I watched anime, so I decided to pick this up on a whim. Although I'm not a fan of isekai, this was a really fun ride with plenty of entertaining characters. Cid didn't click with me at first, but I ended up enjoying his character by the end. The Seven Shadows are charming and their interactions with each other are hilarious, but I wish the show had given them more screentime. Likely seriously, Eta and Zeta barely said five lines (although I heard it's because they haven't even debuted yet in the source material). Also, I expected more fight scenes. Though, the final battle was bonkers, and the animation was excellent. Can't wait for season two. Giving this a 7/10. Despite the shaky writing, this is easily among the better isekai I've watched. Wasn't bored one bit. |

| I guess I still don't quite get it... or maybe I just missed it. Does Cid now get that the Cult of Diablos is real? I know at first he thought it was all pretend & everything was just playing out some fiction, but he's doing REAL fighting, REAL killing & seeing REAL stakes play out now. By the end of the season, he knows it's real right? |

| they should make another version of this where MC is not so clueless and over the top, more serious, the shadow garden members names are same but others names are different and MC name is different, still has the slime body suite but also has mask on, group will be called shadow knights instead and saving the elf part he says the truth and proposes that they should investigate whos behind this, it has more darker then black vibe, i would like to see this type of version of the series |

| Much better than I thought it would be based on the premise. That said, the protagonist's odd obviousness to reality despite being so sharp in all other respects does get old pretty fast. So long as it keeps on the same way (or gets a bit more serious) it'll continue to be worth watching. |
| I thought that He's gonna destroy the whole town :) |

| Poor Rose. Felt bad for her during the Lambda scene. Hope she quickly discovers who Shadow is so she will feel better (and quickly discover who Beta is for the lols ;). Also, I think it is fair to say that Iris has completed her heel turn this episode. And Shadow's laugh very much reminded me of Yagami Light's! As for the anime as a whole, it started pretty badly but kept on improving with every episode. That is honestly a rare sight. The 1st episode was its worst by far and the last episode was its best. Definitely looking forward to season 2 :). |
| Enjoyable (due to the unusual porady inducing mc personality and OP cliche) but cringe too ( because of harem...Other male character's worth is less the 2 cents and females are only are relevant because of haremmate appeal like entire booby girl organisation shenanigans). As far as plot goes, there are some great mysteries like how is he so strong even in previous life or how his made up organisation become real, though the lab experimentation reveal was kind of underwhelming and plot so far shown is pretty average. Regardless good animated fight scenes atleast. Overall, a time passable watch |
  Click for a anime mashup! Still not gone bandwagon u, keep crying. Here u are welcome to CRINGE at my EXISTENCE |
|
| Haha, what a ride with The Eminence In Shadow, the most cringe anime or should I say cool? Either way, great anime, have a lot of fun watching it, especially that "I Am Atomic", lol. |
 |
| Following those weird youtube ratings (non-numerical), I rate this series as I.. Am.. Atomic/10 |
 |
| Man, I never thought the moment he whipped out 2 crowbars again would compete with an (almost) ATOMIC for best moment but he pulled it off LMAO Going into this it felt like another seasonal isekai. But it was one hell of a ride and completely stuck to it's guns nukes. Easy 9/10. |
