I must agree that the voice actor for Satou sounds too forced.
Other than that everything is perfect, not too much of a action but more of a slice of life.
Are you trying to prove to us that everything under a genre is the same regardless or who the author is?
This is like saying meat prepared by a amateur and a professional tastes the same, and there's no point in having professionals.


Are you new to anime?
This kind of ** have been seen a hundred of times.
Sometimes, rarely, it can be well done by introducing something original and new.
But this one, no matter who did it is a Deja vu; the story is cliché, the MC is cliché, nothing is new, and we both know that this aint AOTY.


You actually just repeated what I mentioned, that not all series are produced the same, sometimes done well in rare cases.
I'm not arguing that this anime is godlike, but instead how someone should not judge a series based on the concept used.
Your taste in Anime is shit.

Because you can't differentiate between what's good and bad.

How sad.

Yeah but we both know how it works in japanimation, if a genre shine, repeat it multiple time, since it worked and it is still working.
So, yeah isekai are not all the same, but a lot of them are just copycat.

Yes, because everyone tends to look at where the trends are at.
IMO, I see people nitpick on 'Isekai' concept is mainly due to their influx of such genre over the few years and kind of getting bored by it.
But this doesn't give a good reason to say a series is **** and should be dropped without giving credit where it is due.
There are a ton of 'copycat' out there with the same concept but are generally well accepted too.
Your taste in Anime is shit.

Kirito...ehhh Satou go back to SAO xD But now for real, it's so funny the fact that he is at lvl 310, because i thought that "normal people" would have a much higher lever xD But no, not even soldiers have that high level.

Well it seems this series is more or less going to be what I, or anyone expected really. It's ok imo but I find it hard to enjoy especially when the MC has inner monologues like "if I was younger i'd totally make her wife" type of stuff.

You know what. It was better than i expected. I honestly rolled my eyes at it first at another isekai series but it doesn't seem too bad. Unlike isekai no smartphone was Tomo ni, this had explanations for a good amount of things that go on and unlike re:zero, the way he showed up to the world wasn't too sudden as when Subaru just was walking and somehow appeared in that world. Not a bad start but my opinion can change at anytime.

This is pretty generic. I don't see anything different from the other RPG isekai stories. They're introducing more "cute" girls into the story, how interesting- can't wait to see where this is going...

I personally am loving the show so far. It seems somewhat similar to SAO, but manages to put more focus onto the actual game and mechanics (learning new skills, leveling up, etc.). I haven't read the LN, but as a fan of the Isekai genre, and a devout lover of iseki wa smartphone and SAO, I couldn't be more excited!

Holy fuck those tits on Martha! XD I mean uhhhh.....another fairly leisurely paced episode. Setting up more of the world such as the slavery system and briefly seeing several of our leads, plus learning about dragons and whatnot. Still enjoyable for me, but then I'm a fan of the source manga. I am waiting for a certain event to go down though and see if it picks up from there.


Ditto.

Also, i kinda like the idea of Super-OP character that for once doesn't have any grandiose goal like saving the world or returning to his original reality, but just wants to travel and have fun in the new world he found himself in.


Yes, its quite refreshing even though everyone else sees it as "just another" isekai anime..

Ace_Card said:
I don't really like the MC's teenage voice. His voice is way too effeminate and it's kind of annoying.


Same here.. I do wish they would have chosen someone else for his voice.. or kept his original voice and toned it down a bit, but not such a drastic change, even if he did "revert" back to a younger age.

People are just going into this with bias and not looking at it for what it is. This isn't your wish fulfillment action anime, it is a slice of life, with an adult MC, who doesn't have some grand goal, and just wants to enjoy life and take things at his own pace after working himself practically to death on a consistent basis. Is it slow? Definitely. Still enjoyable and unique enough though :)


I can vouch for this as someone who works a steady job.. sometimes all we want is to just take a breather and enjoy life for once! Very nice, but still interesting anime that takes to time to actually explain itself and explore and expand its setting..

First episode was like a 6, I'd give this one a 7.

A lot better with the scenery, colors, and animations. Even though Satooo looks and sounds retarded compared to the light novels, the overall quality of the anime was a bit better than the first episode.

Wow....that is good way to get away from tricky situations...but if Satou was any kind of asshole...max. out the Trickery and persuasion would be quite horrible to any sentinel Beings..luckily he is not an asshole..Hell compared to him...rest of the city personnel are Racist by their actions towards Beast People. well...they were some bandits but....still....

...Zena really has fallen for him huh...

Could have sworn I've watched this exact plot at least 4 times prior starting the series. Except all of them had something unique about them and this one is boring af. He'll probably go around saving all the random trophy wives, sticking his nose in things that doesn't involve him, and shoving a demented sense of social justice down the viewer's throats.

Also what kind of merchant doesn't know how much dragon hide sells for? Did no one catch that giant red flag?

If you want to create an 'easy-going' story, don't freaking introduce slavery. Those are polar opposites.

Y'know I was skeptical about this anime at first since it looks pretty bland. Only thing seemed nice was that he's older than typical MC-kun(but his 15yr old voice is annoying) and the cute grills.
But his personality does seem pretty fun to watch, pretty mature well that should be expected. What made it for me was when he upgraded his persuasion skill. Fail to convince them... So ee said,"I don't really want this skill but..." then proceed to BS his way with persuasion lol. It was just too hilarious. Especially since he went "Uwaa" when upgrading as they were interrogating him.
if there's more scenes like this, I'll love it.

Overprotective friends, that was dangerous getting shot at like that.

Trickery & Persuasion skills will definitely be handy in a world like that.

Hero & Demon Lord, planting the seeds for the upcoming episodes?

Those 2 young slaves & the exiled witch Arisa slave were featured a bit in the opening, looks like they will play a part in upcoming episodes, especially Arisa by the looks of it.

Wow you get fed really well in that place.

Is half of this protag's internal dialog going to be him telling the audience whether or not he'd hit the girls he meets?

Also, I love how Satoo, who helped design this game and recognized the landscape of the area in the last episode now has absolutely zero understanding of the world or its culture so the audience can learn along with him.

Well, this was rather slow, still no plot in sight except maybe a demon and you might have pissed off some wyverns with that meteor shower lol. The Mc level brokenness is not detectable either I guess. If that device showed his level as 310 they might worship him as a god lol. Meh episode though.

The first 2 episode feels decent, nothing more and nothing less. Doesn't really make you want to watch the next episode nor drop the show. Pacing isn't as bad as what I have read so far but I can definitely understand those concerns to a certain extend.

LMAO at Satoo saying he's confident he would have fallen in love with her if he was still in high school.
LMAO at Satoo turning his Persuasive/Trickery skill to the max.
They become adults at 15. lol
Wow. You become a slave that easily.
WTF! Who is the owner of that oppai that just grabbed Satoo's arm? Nice oppai.
Oh, she's cute.
She wants you to go to her place. Go.
She's 13 and has that oppai? LAWD! 2 year difference won't kill anyone.
That's the mom? She let herself go?
I bet that softness is wonderful.
LMAO at Satoo saying if the mom was skinnier, he'd go for that.
Martha oppai.
Oh snap! Satoo buying stuff for Martha.
lol at Satoo saying he could win Martha over by complimenting her.
Shokugeki judging time.
Satoo says the staff is cute, but he really means Martha. lol
Girlfriend? No, Martha. You misunderstand. She's not his girlfriend.

At least it's not as bad as Isekai smartphone was. I don't mind the MMO aspect of it, with text and stuff, either. The fact that neither the LN nor the anime have the romance/harem tag is a small but good sign, for this to be more than the seasonal "harem with op mc" anime.
Smartphone was better than this in my opinion. MC was OP and ACTUALLY used some cool OP abilities... in this show he just blends in... kinda lame. Whats the point of being OP then?

I FREAKING AGREE! it might as well be a slice of life! The MC is OP but does nothing cool... instead he tries to blend in as a normal human. BORING. I'm giving it one more episode!

Lying and persuasion skills, hm.. Nice ones.. ;P
Getting skills in how expensive stuff is in the world, and merchant skills are always important.. Learning through hearing skill is nice as well.. Even if you have tons of money.. Also, having so much money on yourself.. Wonder, if that's a problem.. I mean, no idea, how thief mechanics work.. Maybe he needs skill of protection from pickpocket.. Or something..
