| ABEMA / dAnime Store Early Airing. One look at novelist Yosuke Tokino's biology, and it just reeks the average writing of tried-and-true tropes, as much as it is for Kanchigai no Atelier Meister a.k.a The Unaware Atelier Master here. MeseMoa.'s OP ain't half bad, quite groovy. 15-year-old Kurt Rockhans finding himself being in the all too stereotypical "kicked out of/fired from the hero party" shtick to find jobs on his own at another town, and a magical aptitude test...only shows that he's a talentless kid. But not all is lost, since he's able to do some construction work, and for a start, his enthusiasm got in the way of others working for the same low pay, which quickly didn't work out. More than Kirshell being lustful for Kurt, instead, him being hired by the mercenary of Yulishia to do her work, though he's too cute and kind-natured to ever try attacking her vulnerability. Furthermore, Kurt helping her find magic crystals to accumulate 10 gold to pay taxes, which seems like a hefty deal since she's working for the royal kingdom...though the mana imbued within them can certainly cause a lot of conflict, according to royal mage Mimiko. Kirshell and Yulishia having the same question about who exactly is Kurt, and it's best to keep him under wraps for the moment. And Kurt building a loghouse for her within a single night...that couldn't be normal, right? Meh, quite the average start to shows all too similar of this kind. |

| At least they got a reason to kick him out, dude’s combat stats are trash. A level 99 party ain’t dragging a level 1 to fight a raid boss. But like… he’s good at crafting and other non-combat stuff, so WHY doesn’t he just leave? Like why do we always get MCs who get kicked out instead of walking away from these toxic jerk parties? Just once, I wanna see an MC with a brain who’s like, “Nah, this sucks, I’m out.” Is this a Japan thing? Like do they gotta get fired just to leave a crappy job? Is that why isekai is full of salarymen stuck in black companies who need a truck to hit ‘em before they get a better life??? |
 |
| Meh. I think I have seen this one before. |
 |
| came here to see the votes and comments to then decide if i'd watch it or not. well, the silence and emptiness are screaming lol |
 |
| Kurt’s ex-party members may have a point, but that doesn’t give them the right to treat such a kind guy so poorly. Meanwhile, Kirshell’s definitely having some naughty thoughts about Kurt. And Yulishia? Well, Kurt’s unknowingly rizzing her up—classic dense protagonist move, lol. |
   |
 so true, spittin fax It's just "Last Dungeon Boonies Kid" again |
 |
| Great start to the anime, let's hope they continue with this comedic story throughout the series. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating. |

| I see, it's basically Lloyd, except without any fighting talent whatsoever. And, luckily, no Alka or Selen. @IzanaSolos IzanaSolos said: Just once, I wanna see an MC with a brain who’s like, “Nah, this sucks, I’m out.” We just had A-Rank Party wo Ridatsu shita Ore wa, Moto Oshiego-tachi to Meikyuu Shinbu wo Mezasu. with exactly this kind of start. |
 |
| The usual "got kicked from a party" trope, but at least this one shows us that he really doesn't have any combat skills. Hopefully, he won't get any flashy when doing combat in the future. Maybe he could make an absurdly OP weapon and kill any monster with basic moves. That would be pretty funny. |
 |
| seems like a mild copycat of Tatoeba Last Dungeon |
 |
| the job recruiter was based for thinking Kurt should become a courtesan |
This series is going SO well!! I’m really loving the plot and the characters so far!  It feels like there’s something happening behind the scenes that we still don’t know about... It gives me the sense that something big is going on — and Kurt might not even be aware of it himself. I loved loved loved this episode! <3 |
| Please, someone that read the novel/manga or whatever the source material is, TELL ME if the misunderstandings stop and he realizes his true potential eventually. I don't want another Parry dude moment where he was braindead and nobody told him anything ever. Inner thoughts are the bane of these animes... SPEAK MF |
| Not a bad start. I wasn't too interested at first but I think it got better like half-way through imo Not sure if I'll watch all the way through but I'll stick around for now |
 |
| It's... ok. I mean the animation is pretty good. The waifus (and I am including Kurt) are pretty cute. But the story so far is boring AF ( T_T ) |

One look at novelist Yosuke Tokino's biology, and it just reeks the average writing of tried-and-true tropes, as much as it is for Kanchigai no Atelier Meister a.k.a The Unaware Atelier Master here.
MeseMoa.'s OP ain't half bad, quite groovy.
15-year-old Kurt Rockhans finding himself being in the all too stereotypical "kicked out of/fired from the hero party" shtick to find jobs on his own at another town, and a magical aptitude test...only shows that he's a talentless kid. But not all is lost, since he's able to do some construction work, and for a start, his enthusiasm got in the way of others working for the same low pay, which quickly didn't work out.
More than Kirshell being lustful for Kurt, instead, him being hired by the mercenary of Yulishia to do her work, though he's too cute and kind-natured to ever try attacking her vulnerability. Furthermore, Kurt helping her find magic crystals to accumulate 10 gold to pay taxes, which seems like a hefty deal since she's working for the royal kingdom...though the mana imbued within them can certainly cause a lot of conflict, according to royal mage Mimiko.
Kirshell and Yulishia having the same question about who exactly is Kurt, and it's best to keep him under wraps for the moment. And Kurt building a loghouse for her within a single night...that couldn't be normal, right?

| @KANLen09 oh I totally agree, there is no way this story is deserving of it's quality animation, but here we are. I'll give it a few more episodes to grow it's appeal, but initial my impression is not good. |

Yuke from "I Left My A-Rank Party" is the only smart mc I've seen from one of the "i was banished" type anime. He actually left his toxic party, and fought back. |
| another SSS rank shoelacer anime... |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Well, it doesn't possibly get any more generic than this, but to be fair, it's a pretty nice show with good character dynamics and hyper-cute girls. I'm staying. |

| @IzanaSolos I think you hit the nail on the head. Not just in anime but in dramas, too, they stay in crappy jobs and/or with horrible companies taking abuse instead of quitting. It has to be cultural. I think part of it is a fear of retaliation/blacklisting especially in certain industries. But, yeah, I agree with you. For once I'd like to see someone just quit and be like "I'm out. deuces!" |
| I feel like this same exact anime aired last season. |
 |
| Yet another twist on the 'kicked out from the hero's party' trend. This one didn't seem like the best version of it, but also not the worst, seemed to me that it could be okay actually. The MC from this show reminded quite a bit of the MC from 'Tatoeba Last Dungeon': he's doing extraordinary feats thinking that this is 'normal' and he's even saying that 'everyone can do it in his village' when building a house so quickly/easily. Overall, I'm not expecting big things from this show, but could be an amusing and decent watch for sure. |
| what Kurt said about his hometown reminds me of that one anime. i can't remember the title... but everybody there was crazy OP because their village was right next door to the most powerful dungeon around. but he was the WEAKEST villager to ever be born there. so the lil dude thought his whole life he was a wussy... when he actually was like 1,000x stronger than anybody else in the world. |
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.  |

| @IzanaSolos look up 'Black Company Trope' in Manga and Anime and you'll figure it out. you quit a turd company in Japan just because YOU think they're a turd company... the next few places you apply for won't be happy with this. you don't quit in Japan... because even part-timers at convenience stores and burger flippers/fry cooks work under an Employment Contract in Japan. they don't even have a National or Prefectural (like a US State) minimum-wage-rate in Japan, it is all market driven pay rates by local or regional standards for each job. for an example, you work cooking french fries in Little City A for a few bucks per hour. but your HS buddy went two cities down the train tracks to Big City C and he gets paid twice what you make... to fry the exact same potatoes. but he rides the train from City A to City C because rent is dirt cheap in City A vs what the rent is like in City C. this bullcrap system is one of the BIGGEST reasons why 'rural' folks from the sticks in Japan want to go to the Cities and work. they can send cash home to their 'poor farmer families' and still afford to live like grunt peasants in the big cities. this also has led to Japan's craptastical low numbers of agricultural industry workers. also, why constantly year after year Japan has to IMPORT raw food goods grown on land VS what they EXPORT from their fishing industries. additionally, Japan (outside of the big dairy farms on Hokkaido) makes some of the lowest quality and crappiest quantities of CHEESE in Asia. even with the fermentation of soy products Japanese craftsmen are experts at... their tiny dairy cow populations just don't support a domestic cheese industry of any great size. for a perfect example? Japan's square kilometers in land mass (not arable land just land in general) is a bit larger than the US State of California. but the US State of Louisiana... grows more rice in one year than Japan grows in FIVE years... by weight... and Louisiana... has been beating Japan in rice for more than 30 years. and Louisiana is MUCH smaller in square kilometers than Japan... but Louisiana doesn't have thousands of years' experience growing rice... |

| Alright, at first few minutes, I thought "oh yea, another kicked from high rank party and turned out to be OP anime. Yea, classic". And that "my story is too common" comment felt like such a 4th wall breaker 🤣 But you know what? I had so much fun! I guess I can watch this for a few episodes. I may or may not drop it later. But for now, it's fun! |
