Disclaimer: I, being an isekai maniac, don't go around comparing every isekai anime with Mushoku Tensei (or the likes). Isekai being a very particular genre with many titles, there is very little to innovate the plot. Though some isekai titles have successfully produced a magnificent and unique plot, others do seem repetitive. But still when I see isekai, I find most of them unique in their own way.


Tensei Kizoku no Isekai Boukenroku was a good isekai, not great, but enough to give an avid fan a temporary dose of good isekai. This all changed in the last couple of episodes. It became too fast-tracked with very little to no development of the characters introduced late. And as if the final nail in the coffin the final episode was a huge disappointment. Felt like the creators just wanted to be done with it. The events cumulated in the final episode is worth at least 4-5 episodes. The epic final fight of the season is a rush-hush job too.

Overall the anime started good but let down in the finale.


PS: One peculiar thing I noticed is that most people comparing isekai titles forget to take one significant thing into consideration -- Age the anime is targeted to. I see numerous comparisons with Mushoku Tense which is targeted at ~17 and above. Mostly the ones being compared are anime targeted at age groups ~13. Kids don't care much for plot repetitiveness or animation level etc which elder teens do.

Felt really rushed how they decided to just introduce a fair bit of new characters right at the last episode. I already felt introducing Seth and his servant on the second last episode was already a rush job because Seth didn't even get proper time to develop an interest in Cain and felt like he became a major fanboy when they met eyes or something.
They could have at least introduced him earlier or something considering he is the demon lord after all but they don't really make a big deal out of it and felt like he was just there only for the purpose of boosting the counterattack of the monsters Aaron is giving out.

I guess as well all the lead up from these 12 episodes to battling Aaron wasn't satisfying at all because all Cain does is go overdrive with the massive light ray and poof he gone. They don't even mention what happened to Aaron at all I guess in a wishy washy hopes from the studio for a season 2 or something and so haven't touched on it AT ALL. Like, at least give us some kind of input as to whatever tf happened to Aaron, that black dragon wasn't even him so he's probably somewhere out there in spirit???????? Don't just leave us hanging like that.

Like I'm all for overpowered MC's and whatnot plus I do like how the God's gave him overpowered stats for an actual reason and not just out of pity because he was murdered trying to save people but c'mon, why you gotta make such an unsatisfying ending to all this?
Rather than mention about the new city with what happened there, they could've at least used some of that time to talk about Aaron like maybe his spirit went elsewhere and he's planning revenge? Or maybe he ended up reuniting with the God's and is taking punishment?
I would have thought it would make more sense if Cain actually got through to Aaron and had a little heart to heart to bring him back rather than just sealing him off like they did in the past.
But nope, all we did was have Aaron be like gone, reduced to atoms.

All that stuff in the new city could've been used as well for season 2 material as well, Cain with his overpowered skills brings up a city from the rundowns to bright futures whilst doom looms over the distance with newfound evil or Aaron planning his new revenge.
Whatever was mentioned in the new city could have had at least like 2 episodes at least covering it until his arrest and whatnot.

As a whole I did enjoy this anime, found it funny and humorous tho a lot of the time you just end up feeling sorry for Cain getting into kerfuffles with his future wives and the King and his dad lecturing him a lot of the time... Maybe I should do a count of how many of those CAIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN 😡😡😡 moments there were ahahahah
Like it had become such a big thing in the show that by the end of it with the goodbyes, it was literally the thing they ended it by like man, give the poor kid a break 😂
But the only thing I really didn't like was just how unsatisfying the ending felt with the final battle.
If they ever make a season 2, I hope it answers things better because it's all just up in the air.

What was even the point of such buildup with Aaron, only for him to be done this quickly? Didn't even see his last moments, as Cain was just interrupted and the next moment Aaron was nowhere to be seen. We have no idea why he did what he did, absolutely no exposure to his character and that's the main antagonist mind you, the main antagonist that Gods made him this OP for. He was already the strongest being in the world pretty much, but we still got the training arc cause he was deemed "not strong enough for Aaron". And then it appeared that he was TOO strong for Aaron. At the end of the day he didn't need to be this strong.

Also as someone who likes light novels, I have no reason to read it. As it feels like nothing interesting is gonna happen. He beat Aaron, what is there to look forward to? That's why you shouldnt make characters this OP, unless you are good enough author to think of suitable challenges for him to make it interesting.

The other complaint was how annoying most characters were. Especially his fiances. Don't know if its their voices or personality or both, but I couldn't help but feel annoyed.

The best part of this anime was definitely the king and his reactions and how Cain was scolded all the time.

You seem to of got your knickers in a twist and went off on one.  So many words.  Its just a fun comedy.  You should calm down.

It's a fun anime I guess overall. But overpowered characters are kinda boring... At least this is more watchable than Summoned to Another World for a Second Time.
