This was garbage. Utter garbage. Like they tried so hard to be funny and it was just not funny. Then they add fan service to try and hook you...but it doesn't help. Not a great start to this series imo.


Garbage opinion.


comedy is subjective there's always someone that doesn't find something funny that others do

Ah shit, here we go again. Another isekai and this looks like another generic one. I think the humor is fine but gets overboard at times. Also, I feel some Aqua vibes from the goddess

LOOOL enjoying the hell out of this so far....The goddess is hilarious af !
The voice acting is great and the animation looks solid as well

I love how they’re addressing the isekai trend in Japan too, but doing something unorthodox with the story. Well done , great first episode .

It's like Aqua and Goblin Slayer (with powers) going up against a thicc Albedo.
I like it; I'm hooked :)

Pretty good, although I can see the "cautiousness" of the main character becoming pretty annoying later on.

I mean, this show isn't bad, but it's also not anything outstanding. The comedy is really what makes the show shines the most as I find myself laughing at the self-awareness the anime shows and the very cautious isekai hero. The rest are just average things you usually find in every isekai anime.

MAN im loving this more than the others of this genre. The fact that he being so cautious borderlines on mental disorder is absolutely brilliant!! He is the ripped over powered version of sheldon from big bang series. The fact that the mc and goddess are hitting certain walls and challenges due to mc personality while introducing plot twists at the same time, Gives the series unlimited potential for anything to happen. This series can easily go black clover, or go no where plot wise just pumping out comedy episodes, or it can go slice of life, a goddess learning how to deal with his social disorder.

I just pray the mc doesnt become over powered, like overlord/one punch man or like the other genres. He is strong but opponents are stronger, keep that going please. The struggles are real, is why i enjoy anime.

Finally, my kind of a hero. Thorough preparation is everything.

Ristarte provides a fine contrast to the impossibly cautious hero. Her antics and over-the-top reactions are hilarious.

I do feel sorry for the slime, though...

LOL, it was hilarious .. the goddess remind me of Aqua they really got similiar perk XD. and the Hero really cautious as hell :D.

the voice acting on Seiya & Ristarte was really good, even better with that priceless and hilarious expression from her XD.

that atomic split slash tho .... and that final scene XD... can't stop laughing at that. can't wait to see more of hilarious moments from them.
and Yepp as usual the OP, sound of isekai !! Myth&Roid!!! It was really good, one of my fav OP this season. the ED was kinda good too.

The 1st episode was just too good i would give it 5/5 . The comedy in a single episde was top notch and the hero was damn good it gave me vibes of konosuba from very start , the mc is a little more cautious than kazuma n the goddess is little better too (she gave him money ) and the comedy of this episode compared to konosuba 1st episode was better , but if only they keep track of it .

That Ristarte so called goddess is inept. And Seiya trains like a Super Saiyan to get his powers up. Seiya's voice sounds flat like he's smoking some good shit like reefer. And can't Ristarte just leave Seiya alone while he trains like a Super Saiyan to get a six pack and be unstoppable? Can't they give Seiya something a little more challenging? And Ristarte, she's a closeted hentai girl.

This one is actually interesting. The main character is overpowered like every other isekai show, but in this one he's crippled by an excessive need to overanalyze and prepare for everything. Its a gimmick, but it at least sets it apart from other bland, uninspired isekai shows from the last couple seasons.

The only question I have is, how long does it take before the joke gets old? Its gonna take a lot of effort to keep making that joke land while keeping it fresh

Please tell me that this show is actually a crossover ship from Aqua and Tatsuya Shiba. In any case, I like the way it parody the invincible LN protagonists. It feels like that after the first episode alone, I immediately got experience of 5-6 such LN.

I laughed way harder than I should, especially during the slime part. MC reminds me so much of Sousuke from Fullmetal Panic and the goddess is pretty much an Aqua expy. The comedy is heavily reliant on a certain gimmick so I can see it becoming repetitive later on, but I'll continue watching as long as it stays funny.

Damn, I'm getting Aqua vibes from that blonde goddess, I guess I'll be watching this anime too. What a nice episode, it's hilarious in every way but they went overboard on some parts, still funny though, Aki Toyosaki's voice acting is great, nothing less from the VA of Altair.

I expected discount Konosuba, and I feel that's pretty much what I got. It was actually pretty funny, and they did a nice job animating funny faces on Ristarte and Chaos Machina, who is also mai waifu

I think this is what Konosuba would be if Kazuma was Aqua and Aqua was Kazuma

This hero is quite the risk taker! Living on the edge! I mean...what if the Risarte only ate the one non-poisoned onigiri and the rest were poisoned. Or since she's immortal she is immune to the poison. He could have died right there for being so careless!

quite a realistic hero I would say, I mean if I got transfered to some demon world then I too would be as cautious as he is, being killed by demons is not a laughing matter, no pretty woman in the world would be enough to convince me to risk my life LOL.
5/5 for this episode.

Another tryhard "muh deconstruction" LN adaptation, with the same shitty tsukkomi comedy that wouldn't know subtlety even if it hit it in its face, and tries to constantly point towards itself by screaming how "clever" and "funny" it is being. There wasn't a single moment where the show tried to "show" you the story and comedy and let you get immersed in its world, instead of "telling" it through annoying rambling dialogues. And yeah, Ristarte does seem like a discount Aqua, even her voice is similar.

I didn't watch this when it first came out but my friend's favorite seiyuu, Ume-chan is doing Seiya's voice so I'm going to give it a try.

Not gonna lie, Ristarte's pretty funny. The way her voice actor said "six pack" and "sexy" were cute and funny at the same time.

Tbh, I don't have high hopes for this series but maybe it'll give me a few laughs here and there.

I thought Rista's boobs were already big enough but Ariadoa definitely proved me wrong.

Not to mention the thicc demon girl at the end, thank you Lord for that thiccness!

Hilarious start, I love the Goddess and the dynamic with Seiya is great.

As a highly paranoid person I can relate to the MC.
if I ever came to an isekai world, I would behave like Seiya, maybe not super crazy like that but still super cautious.
Thanks RPG games, hardcore mode level games and ghetto upbringing for making me paranoid as fuq
