Okay... I will admit I was a little bit on the fence going in, but it wasn't at all as bad as I expected it to be from how emotionally angry everyone has been. Still... I would have liked it if they would add just 25% more frames so the animation was a little less choppy. But so far my initial assessment is: I can live with it, even if the first episode actually felt a tad long. ^^'

Whoever allowed A-cat to animate this series needs to be put behind bars because this was F-Tier trash. Not only is the art style and animation far below par, they can't write for the life of them. IDK who was paid to make this because this close to seven deadly sins bad.

@Marinate1016 ig you've seen the Junji ito Netflix anime, it's like that. Typical 2015 mid isekai animation with some seemingly atrocious CG (in the opening visuals).
Them fans want modernised animation, but it's seemingly not a big budget studio, or maybe just a new one, which is why they are protesting against the studio on social media and in the comments.

But, the bgm Fits and story wise it seems faithful as a first episode. You can watch it if the animation doesn't bother you.
Although reading it is a Finer experience.

The first American web novel to make it to Japanese shores, courtesy of Brandon Lee a.k.a TurtleMe, but why did Studio A-CAT drop the ball THIS hard is beyond me.

Kala's OP's is fire, but fine. The likewise is the same with seiza's ED.

The authoritative King Grey having his own reincarnation moment, reborn as Arthur with his parents Alice and Reynolds and learning of the world right before his very eyes, from the setting of the places to the very mana that projects people. But still, the infant having to learn whatever he could from his parents, much from his father who's an Augmenter and can use magic, he drives home the fact that he can activate his own mana core to bear fruit, though at the expense of almost losing his life on the brink of collapse of their own home.

Well, if an alternate Mushoku Tensei is what you want, this is easily the Temu/wish.com equivalent of it, like for like.

I liked the overall idea, but man… the animation is kinda rough, huh? ๐Ÿ˜‚ I was expecting something smoother, but at times it felt like a slideshow. Other than that, the world-building seems promising, and the power system has potential. At least the protagonist isn’t the typical clueless MC—being a former king, he knows what respect is and how to demand authority, which is a plus. It kinda reminded me of Mushoku Tensei during the childhood phase, but it still has to prove if it’ll be that good. Let’s see how it goes, but I really hope the animation improves

Epic intro and opening song.

Instead of a reincarnated Japanese person, we got just a reincarnated person. Okay.
IN REAL LIFE, there's no such thing, okay?!

Anyway, it feels like the intro was just like from a LN, portrayed decently. I'm expecting a lot from this series based on the intro.

...

Okay. After watching this 1st episode. I somehow feel great.
The art style reminds me of manhwas like Solo Leveling, and Gin no Guardian, and the animation is a great one at that. Well, not like SL at the moment, but we will probably get there eventually.

For now, it's like a modernized Jobless Reincarnation in manwha edition, and it really feels pleasant.

P.S. For those who are not actually criticizing this after watching this episode and only hear the here-sayers of other people. WATCH IT FIRST. I'd recommend it.

Solid 10/10โ˜…, for now.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

One of the most anticipated anime adaptations, TBATE. The pacing was rather quiet and slow, and while the animation style doesn't really do justice to the manhwa, it's not as bad as some claim, although baby Arthur's head is huge. Let's hope it gets better. Fingers crossed that they don't spoil the story.

@Mari_Marx From experience, if in the first episode of an anime the quality wasn't good, there was no effort, it's 99% certain that it won't improve in general.

Too soon to judge, but I wish Arthur choose the peaceful path. I can't see how I'll like this anime if Arthur grow into the same personality as his past life, even if his past life's body is hot.

The animation certainly... Isn't good. Very, very basic at best, and the effects are poorly composited with the animation. The show is def not a looker.

I am intrigued by the story at least, I am weak to "emotionless jerk learns of Love" type stuff. Also OP pretty bangin'. I'll give it till Episode 3 to see if it can be carried by it's writing.

Decent ep, aside from trolling, I question how he died in his past life. Drugged or something? He just appears in water (symbolically drowning) i assume, I'm not too sure.

Besides that, LMAO, that animation was sum ass, cds are meh, not too interested in the music, va is decent. Pops was tryna do a leg kick and instead did the Nae Nae. Man, oh man, was the slideshow of this ep insane. Manhwa definitely getting peeped soon.

I am in shock at just how bad everything about this show is. I can't think of a show that has been worse in a very long time. Especially not a show with such high PTW. I don't understand how they let this go through instead of delaying it to a different season and fixing it.
@Raarz dude you dont watch many shows then.
This was completly decent quality wise.

It looked decent, IT sounded decent.

I seriously dont get all this hate. There are a million Shows looking worse than this every season.

Stop riding the dick of the hate train. Its embarassing

Didn't find it, idk why. I'm actually Very sad, about the Animation. But The Opening Song is a Banger!!!! I just loved it. It sounds Fresh. The ending is somewhat Alright I guess.


Being both an Invincible and TBATE fan is kinda tough, but Invincible delivers during epic moments. I hope Tbate will too. These shows deserve more.

Edit: It's Decent. I didn't hate it. It's WATCHABLE. And I Just Hope, they Saved Budget for the Most important Fight scenes.
๐Ÿคž I think it's getting a Lot of Hate for No reason.
The animation, yes it's a Complaint but it's just a New studio. A few years later, this'll use this experience in a better adaptation.
This is the way How Most Anime Studio starts, when everything is NEW.

@Wrathberry84 There always people like you that will let this slide. That's why these entertainment industries don't care anymore. I have seen animes with way less hype and better animation than this. Example: "I parry Everything", "Delicious in Dungeon". If your Manhwa has a good a fanbase, the least you could do is treat them to some good anime. That's all from me

That was okay I guess. It's this season's reincarnation anime, but this one at least looks nicer than the usual slop we end up getting. Not sure if I'll stick around to the end, it feels a bit too early to decide, I'll give it another episode or two

Also that mom's pretty hot <3

That music at the end after they saved the MC reminded me a lot of LOTR too. Anyone else feel that way?

Edit: wow people really did not like this huh? lol I guess it goes to show that people are tired of these kind of stories. Although I think people are being a little too harsh. Was the animation really that bad? I've seen way worse lmao

what the fuck is this shity ass isekai lmfao. G.A.R.B.A.G.E. they didn't even try to adapt this shit lol.

there's not a single thing that I can say is "good" lol. everything in this episode is horrible imo, the pacing is so slow that it makes my brain shake, the plot is also boring, the dialog and monologue are also boring, this episode is very badly directed imo and I don't like how the OSTs are used in some scenes, I think the placement of the OSTs is very off, and don't forget about the animation and visuals which already shows that this is one of the anime this year that has poor quality.

Listen, as someone who hasn't read the source material. I thought episode 1 was pretty good.

Was it the best thing I've ever watched? No, but I've seen farrr farrr worse. We had development for the MC. We get a brief introduction to the world. I would have liked a bit more "show don't tell" in that regard but it was fine. The animation isn't amazing sure, but it's still decent.

I'm sure the source material is leaps and bounds better, but this is still good. I'm sorry manwha readers didn't get the masterpiece they wanted, and the source material probably deserved, but I think the hate for this adaptation is unwarranted, as it's still pretty good so far.

I swear, I will never get this obsession of completely dunking on a series just because of mid animation.

Enjoyed the slow paced idylle for a start along with our MC experiencing parental love for the first time, but dunno if the series can hold my attention for too long if it's the isekai standard fare.

Intro was Lincoln park style cringe, animations pretty non existent, and the setup was just snails paced boring. I dont usually drop shows on ep 1 but wow.
