You know what, I don't think they're even trying anymore. I'm glad I missed the original announcement for this, since I didn't think my hope for this studio could fall any lower.

In the webnovel, the protagonist's current one true love interest is actually...



However as far as him having sex goes...





Can't wait to see, if @Fai will comment here. Hate because another supposedly (probably, according to him) "trashy" isekai WN/LN without even having read it, or will he go like "Oh, it's director Shin Oonuma with studio Silver Link who did Prisma Illya! This will be a masterpiece!" I can't wait to find out. But the odds usually favor negativity in his case.

Well... it's a bit complex...



It's one of those series with a lot, and i mean A LOT of world-building involved. So it really isn't easy to answer such questions.

I'd go as far as to say that this is probably the one isekai OP-MC WN with the most world building in existence.

np, but this series will probably not even get that far to even reach his main love interest. Escpacially if it's only 13 or so episodes.




The show is...


too short to get your common sense obliterated...
...too long to hallucinate that this is an action series...
...just right for a sight-seeing slice-of-life cooking series.



EDIT: OH, look at that! Those who know about how every LN cover shows Liza, Pochi and Tama somewhere, it applies to this image as well! I didn't even notice at first!

Well this seems simple enough because I am personally interested in this. I heard it's pretty comfy and quite nice from some readers.

The fact that Ounuma is in this project (which is my favorite director or one of my favorite directors) makes it better imo.

Although will look into more info about the staff because they only announced one (didn't announced the series composition etc).

The promo art reminds me of my favourite painting


“Read as little as possible of critical or aesthetic works. They are either products of a close-minded spirit, petrified and devoid of meaning in their lifeless hardening, or clever verbal games [...]. Works of art are of an infinite solitude; nothing is worse than criticism for approaching them. Only love can grasp them, keep them, be just toward them. Always give precedence to your own feeling against these analyses, these reviews, these introductions. [...] You must let every impression, every seed of feeling, ripen within you, in the dark, in the inexpressible, in the unconscious, those regions closed to understanding. Wait with humility and patience for the hour of the birth of a new clarity. Art demands of its faithful followers as much as of its creators.”

There's around 3x more than 5 girls who travel with him and/or fall for him, though he doesn't make a move on any of them because he's either not interested or others in the group stop him from doing anything. He reincarnates into an age 15 body but is 29 mentally, so he's into older women and mainly sleeps with courtesans that age. It's one of the better Isekai stories out there, but still an Isekai story with a lot of the same tropes (I read the first 7 Web Novels).

Still, Shin Onuma as director, wonder if he'll direct it normally or inject some Akiyuki Shinbo-ness into it? It's a series that really doesn't need any of that embellishment, though he's unpredictable when it comes to that.

Are the Japanese playing this new game called "whoever can adapt the shittiest isekai story wins"? I get that they want to cash in on the isekai hype (a bit late though), but has any one of them ever read what they're trying to adapt?

It's not anything very special at face value, but for what it does its pretty nice in all honesty.

Oh by the way, I forgot to say that the MC was actually an adult, but his body regressed into the 15-year-old state you see in the trailer once he came into the different world. Also less than half of his regular traveling companions are even interested in him as a member of the opposite sex. And the protagonist himself at this point rejects any advances toward him by his companions.

Also the trailer gives me hope that the right atmosphere gets conveyed. The focus being the aestetics of the surroundings, in other words "sight-seeing". It's a little worrying that the food is missing though. After all Death March is a sight-seeing AND cooking story.

And btw, this story is absolutely "anti-edge". Aside from a single plot point the anime will most certainly not reach, there is no drama here that doesn't get almost immidietly resolved.

Shouldn't the PV warrant a new news entry/news discussion thread? Most people might not even notice that a PV has actually been released. Not even the title of this thread says anything about it.

1. This news and PV release are 4 days difference. To warrant a new news discussion would be after 1 week.
2. PV that released a week after the last news would go to Weekly PV Collection forum, not individual news entry.

Music from the que-line at a pirate themed ride at an amusement park and visuals that look straight from a Nintendo DS, and that's even before the 9 harem waifus and "totally not kirito" show up.

God damn this looks like garbage.

God damn this looks like garbage.

The problem with Kirito was that he was inconsistent. He was portrayed as both a lone-wolf type but also as super communicative at other times. And while he was portrayed to be a "OP MC Gary Stu teenager" with his whole "beater" background, he was still involved in excessive drama and even showed many signs of "edginess". All of this makes him seem like a shallow character who always has the character that happens to fit the current part of the story at the author's convenience.

Satou from Death March on the other hand is consistent and has none of the problems Kirito had. In the first place, Satou is mentally an adult. More than half of the girls that travel with him, up until the current WN RAWs show no indication of any interest in the MC as a member of the opposite sex and the MC himself rejects those who are interested in him because they are too young and is only romantically interested in 1 person who is not part of his regular entourage. He is OP from the beginning but that's no problem, because it isn't an action story, but rather a semi-episodic slice-of-life story in a fantasy setting with RPG-elements.

The more isekai anime being produce, the more that I miss the LN Battle harems at least with them it's a good guilty pleasure.
