Def some cracks starting to show here. Action animation and direction are comically bad.

It was pretty fun seeing Sasaki turn a fight into a cordial conversation. Confused as to exactly what the villains’ motives were, they just kinda gave up on all their objectives I guess.

And that girl introduced at the end, do we really need more stuff going on? We’ve already got three entirely separate plot lines running concurrently, would be insane to get a fourth.

Interested to see where this goes, hopefully it’s not action-dependent.

I would have never guessed that Hoshizaki is underage I thought she was at least in her twenties
@Reecey91 I think that was the point - but this is anime afterall - so everyone is either underage or looks underage but is actually a 300 year old vampire lol.

@davidyodo24

1. Animation, especially the fight scene, is definitely subpar.
2. Yes. Lines up in the novel.
3. At least one of them will be an adult
4. Mahou shoujo, isekai, reverse isekai, power fantasy... and counting. Depends on the author tho

@Unkn0wnfear

At least one of the FMCs is going to be "adult" aged, if you're sensitive to that kinda thing. Best not to say anything too much here as anything further would be a spoiler.

I'm not seeing how these girls being underaged serve as a plot device. Hopefully there will be a reason for it, but I doubt it.

Sasaki handling his otherworldly powers in a short amount of time is impressive even on Peeps.

Sasaki supplying walkie-talkies and batteries in the fantasy world, which to them will prove a great deal because of Viscount Muller's recommendation, and also in preparation of an incoming war. It's good that French's restaurant business is booming, but he almost forgot about his real work being a psychic investigator with Hoshizaki, on the same group of psychic users, whom which one of them has been subdued before.

But their mission to find the group's hideout, it sppears to have been a trap that has the entire raiding team surrounded. Despite that, Sasaki would never leave Hoshizaki, especially in a battle against a rather high-level psychic girl in a kimono. Knowing this, Sasaki takes the safe route being an unknown face to the girl and dons his business facade while trying to find that advantage over her with his psychic powers...that are still in a level of uncertain controllability. Even on his first job, Sasaki managed to call off the conflict, which is a feat, and Hoshizaki feels grateful enough to invite him for dinner.

The biggest twist is Hoshizaki being 16 despite looking like a young woman, all she wants is a well-paying job, that's all. But yet another magical girl showing up who comes from another universe, Sasaki's only going to get into deeper shit ever.

So a lot has happened.

The other world might have a war breaking out, that's not good.

Sasaki's first field-job went horrible and then decent towards the end, that's good.

Sasaki also possesses the ability to attract minors, that is not good at all.

This episode really flew by. Bold of Sasaki to pay French outside in front of a lot of people. Also how are people not suspicious of him since he's wearing a suit? Saski said that Hoshizaki wore a lot of makeup so that might explain why everyone thought she was older bc same. He seems to really attract the younger crowd lol Sasaki's faces are perfect! I love his expressions, they remind me a lot of Bocchi. The fight scene was a little weird though, everyone just fell like flies and no one stood their ground lol

quick edit after actually finishing the last few minutes: orange juice with ice should be a crime

I couldn't care less about the whole age thing, I'm just more on the point of just dropping this whole show now, the premise is just really meh and even tho Tomokazu Sugita is the MC in this and Yuki Aoi plays as a cute looking birb as well as a good amount of VAs I like in this show, it still doesn't save the whole thing for me
I don't like Hoshizaki's character at all and everything is just not really sticking to me at all, there's a lot of other anime I'm watching this season so I am okay with one less show that is just not appealing to me at all

Even like skimming past next episode too, nothing is intriguing me at all

there is an impending war in the alternate world. his whole team was incapacitated against some band of criminal(?) psychics in this world. i'm still not sure the organization he's been "forced recruited" into is "good", but the criminal group doesn't seem good, either. and then oh, mystery floating girl eating dumpster(?) food and then traveling through some portal thing to god knows where

During the 1st ep I thought: "yay, at last, the anime with weird but adult characters! What a relief!"

After it's ending it changed to: "adding a stalker schoolgirl neighbor not gonna be fun, but ok, let's see how it goes".

Then 2nd ep turned adult fmc into schoolgirl, and added 2 more schoolgirls - one dressed in Japanese style, second - flying one.. And all into mc ofc..

And we suddenly got into harem fantasy anime with adult mc and his schoolgirl cohort (4 atm, but sure will raise) and a magical talking bird.

eeew




P.S. Those "battle" scenes were pretty childish btw.
Flying bowling balls and pins to defeat the SWAT... Quite Scooby-Doo-esque lol

ok ok ok wtf why did I sleep on this anime after the first episode bc what was with the animation in this episode!?!? It was actually really good it looked like this was animated by Naotoshi Shida😭😭😭😭

Looks like Sasaki’s first mission was a complete disaster like I mean the whole squad unit got wiped out without much of a fight and Hoshizaki’s water manipulation powers is actually a really useful ass ability like I’d say it’s overall great power to have in any anime in general🔥🔥

I can’t believe Hoshizaki is 16…SIXTEEN yet she looks like a business woman who’s in her early 20’s and the makeup she puts on makes her even look more mature like this girl bamboozled us fr😭😭🤣

Bit weird they decided to make a obviously young 20s office lady into a 16 year old. But just anime things isnt it. They have a weird obsession with making everyone teenagers.

Well the opening at least makes it worth, but damn the battle sequence should be more better, not that kind of quality from silver link smh....

All in all, character introduction felt like a bit of forcefully, with that miko-like girl opponent arrival and pink magical girl. I mean the concept of them being a psychic to match Sasaki capability to crossed over two worlds already weird, so this is kind of a new encounter to me. Age revelation too tho. Was that really necessary after all the coming? Lol

Ah well. Perhaps i may chill a bit and see where this all going...

Dammit Japan.

For a second I thought they were trying to balance out that schoolgirl by giving the MC a possible older love interest. But nah, this being anime, went into pedo territory instantly. And at the end, another jailbait showed up.

@1List2RuleThemAl well in japan 16 is legal :D

they are doing it according to their laws and they love to push the boundaries



its not common thing but 16y girl married with over 20y dude, marriages like this is possible only when parents approve, so not awry case is pedo, not awry1 who happens to like teen romantically is pedo, pedo doesn't even see them romantically, pedo is driven by lust, seriously ppl should just stop throwing that word around so lightly and to be more precise if teens are involved that's not even Pedophilia its called Ephebophilia, Pedophilia involves pre-teens


Ephebophilia is when some1 is sexually interest in teens and they loose interest once teen becomes adult, that's how the both illnesses work

Pedophilia is uncurbable mental illness where person is sexually interested in children and looses interest once child become teen



this days ppl like to label anything pedophilia that they don't understand and what makes them unconfutable lol


Ephebophilia only hunts teens and loose interest when the get to a age


when it comes to 16 and 40+ that's bit weird sure :D
i heard he says hes over 40 if i remember correctly
but he started to like her before he knew her age and that make it less weird, if he would end up going for her, that is if u take this anime 2seriously, if not then it doesn't matter when he started liking her


also its fiction/anime don't take it so seriously :D

@RGreatDanton

All fights in this anime have been uninteresting.

Having a pretty much useless middle-aged protagonist, who is saved by a stupid bird with most over the top "AWW CUTE" shtick gets old, fast. Not like he gets stronger or does anything cool even when the season ended.

The whole pedo/loli vibe didn't help. Kinda feels like MC is writer's self-insert with fantasy of becoming "OP ISEKAI MC" with underage girls falling on his dick left and right.

The MC sold walkie-talkies and batteries to the isekai world?! And people think Mitsuha in 80,000 Gold was being reckless!?

That raid battle seemed so devoice of substance, and the new mysterious "trash" girl at end seems disconnected from the isekai world and secret govt organization storylines, meaning possibly yet another storyline in the overcrowded storylines. My opinion of this anime is dropping fast despite having a keen interest in isekai and the premise of the anime being similar to 80,000 Gold which I adore that anime.
