Overlord 2.0 with a mix of Goblin Slayer's brutality and alerting scenes. Imagine seeing almost a rape scene at the first minute of an episode. That's so disturbing man. I hope i won't see another kind of things in the show. Can't wait for Ainz Ooal Gown's adventure though. I mean Arc**

Looks fun so far, I'm an Isekai fan so a new isekai would be always welcome. Arc is fun to watch in this episode so I'm looking forward to his adventure. The opening sounds fun too, really love it.

Well episode 1 showed plenty promise imo. Another isekai with heavy Overlord vibes as far as the mc. Always a good start when the story doesn’t hold back on violence or graphic nature. Because the edgy stuff will usually at the very least give you a differ story line to enjoy then just regular classic isekai OP storyline. Hopefully this won’t disappoint. 7/10 for me

Bruh, wtf was that start.


Protagonist and the story tbh is a little bit too similar to overlord honestly. But I didn't hate overlord so I'm curious to see where the story heads here. CGI could have been worse

Yes it was necessary, they did that so when the scene repeated this time from Arc perspective, viewers wouldn't feel like something is wrong with Arc morality since instead of jumping to save the girls right from the start he stopped, thought about it for some seconds while the girls were in desperation and only when things escalated to the max he saved the girls, showing what happened in the opening was made to assure viewers that he would save them, and tbh even with that i felt like he took a bit too long to make something.

Attempted rape scene right off the bat, lmao, going in blind to this was great. Pretty good start for an isekai tbh, I like that he questioned a lot of things throughout the whole episode, instead of just accepting the situation he's in.

More shock value is always welcome.

This first episode is great! I liked how the MC is OP that makes the story exciting and I'm also excited to the next episode next week. This is like overlord but this story is different from overlord. I also like that there's a little action at the beginning of the anime. It is really great!

Thanks for the reminder.
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.

as far as sexual assault scenes go. this one wasn't as awful as the one in goblin slayer. but it still felt completely unnecessary as if the bandits had just threatened the women it would have changed literally nothing plot wise. and in my opinion it's only acceptable to include SA if it's actually important to the narrative (Berserk is a good example)

honestly I loved the himbo energy of the main character. very much giving golden retriever gamer boyfriend vibes.

the CGI in this show has been surprisingly good in my opinion thusfar. the models used so far are not distracting and look quite nice.

That's one way to quickly gain or lose viewers lmao. That was pretty fun, this must be what was going on in Veldora's head while he was sealed.

Will always like sound effects on OPs, well, as long as it's used only on special episodes, like this one, which is the premiere. Goddamn though, Pellek sang the OP!? Definitely feels to be just an unga bunga fun show, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Not really the fan of the ost of this series, honestly. But so far i can see Arc being a fun mc as same as what i feel back when i saw Diablo from How not to summon the demon lord. By using such an opening bait sequence like that actually quite a bold and very pervert attempt. I almost lost my faith when seeing that, but also couldn't help but chuckle, until i saw Arc and wishing, you may can bringing this show into a better path...

So far this is just okay. Not that as bad as Shijou first impression, but not really standing out. Though, really looking forward to get to know those little green pet, and those elf. Lets see....

I was expecting NOTHING from this, but looks like it will be a hysterically funny ride later on.

The Opening Theme is straight glorious LMAO

Will have to take a look at the LN or the manga to see if things get as hilarious as I'm hoping them to get. So far, they just went Overlord, except KonoSuba style.

Oh boy that Opening scene really give us PTSD from Goblin Slayer. lol

but holy hell the Opening Theme Song is by Pellek!!! his debut on Official Anime Song...
Congrats to him...

the elf girl is voice by Fairouz Ai? and Arc is voice by same VA as Veldora?
talking about fun personality...

I like the first episode, seems gonna be Fun Adventure Isekai.

Never thought I'd see CGI in an actual OP and ED (excluding CGI anime) not saying it's bad CGI but still kinda weird.

But on the controversial topic yeah after goblin slayer, opening to that seems kinda of like a cheap gimmick.


I mean the opening is fine and all it shows that this will be a bit of a gory show. But it not like the goblin slayer Opening is really good. Just to note just saying this to whole form having a shock value seen at the start is not unique movies and shows have done that for years.

But for a first episode it ok
I just don't know how this anime really stands out over other OP MC Other world shows. It really not done anything unique at all yet.

And so we come to our last new cheat power RPG reincarnation crapfest of the season, and we're starting out 'strong' by jumping straight to the rape scene advertised in the promos. Well, nowhere to go for the rest of the episode but up from here. And it succeeds. At not going anywhere up. Because after this follows the reviewal of the status screens and character sheet, the explanation that it's an RPG, and then we do the rape scene a second time, but this go round, longer and rapier. Fantastic. You're going to win a lot of converts with this one, Japanese anime industry.

The especially sad part is that the rape scene is where all the tiny, miniscule, pathetic budget went too, and it still was terribly animated. The rest of the episode is on a shoestring budget and frequently devolves to stills even when there was anything to animate in the first place. Perhaps the dumbest were when it tried to work in reaction shots of the titular skeleton dude by half cutting out the CGI armor just to show one eye glowing. Whatever you were going for with this show, people, this ain't it.

Besides the start everything was ok. Nothing too special yet. will watch this for now since overlord season 4 isn't out yet. So if ainz was just in his momon role the whole time I guess it would be this.

generic isekai with the only unique thing being it's title i swear some of these authors only put so much work into the name and base premiese only to realize they need to try and make something interesting out of the genre but that's expecting too much when this stuff is suppose to just be junk food consumed .

not even gonna go into opening up with some gross sexual assault for no reason only for a extended cut by the later parts of the episode somehow think it was worse than goblin slayer

i just realized yeah this is kinda like how overlord started before overlord really wanted to be overlord at least this guy seems to be quite happy and more on the side of good even in a messed up way if he still thinks it's all a game just murdering dudes chopping them up into bits which is a bit much for a comedy

cutting board it goes unless i hear good things about this one

Surprised to see the lack of triggered twitter users.

The rape was already shown in the very first trailer, so yeah, maybe it would have had an affect if they didn't do that. Not much to say otherwise, the OP has two nice explosions. I'll probably watch another episode of this.

Gotta say, the "Risqué" bait had me at first. Almost thought I misjudged it as a typical Isekai comedy... But nope, not falling for it. I don't doubt they'd pull more risque/gore moments again but, it's definitely just for shock-factor, not a result of story uniqueness.
Not to say it's bad. It's actually, imo, one of the better Isekais when it comes to the protag's reaction to getting Isekai'd and explaning some of its "game" mechanics (not great, but fairly well done). But can definitely see how it'll go from here.
Protag solo entertained us in this episode though so, credits for that.
