Well pretty good episode to start with Cautious Hero. With Rista character that remind me with Aqua (At least Rista not useless) and Seiya that really cautious about almost everything that makes Rista annoyed. I hope Rista and Seiya will get character development in the end of anime.

Story try to makes Satire of General Isekai Anime, which is new experience for me, well hope it will good.

The Animation is good but can be better which make by White Fox that makes Re:Zero before.

The OP and ED is pretty generic so not much cacth fun with it.

Overall great first impression, Let's hope is gonna get better.

Holy shit, I don't remember myself laughing from any anime episode as hard as I did from this one ever before.
Seiya actually parodies the exact tactic I go for in strategy games often (FF3 traumatized me) and this only made the humor here even funnier!

First episode and male MC is already a pain. It seems Ristarte will be the one who carries the show.

Looks like this isekai is self aware and try to play with their tropes. I like it.
All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath.

Hilarious start with out overly cautious (pain in the ass to work with) hero Seiya who doubts literally everything and background support goddess Rista. Gotta its good that the demon lord eis watchfull for the hero considering Seiya literally obliterated a mere slime without holding back.

That was a very funny first episode. So they make fun of the whole isekai trope by turning things around a bit. Ristarte reminds me a bit of Aqua, but Seiya is way more serious than the heroes you usually see. Great start.

Idk, Seiya can get pretty irritating by being so cautios that he slows things down too much, I also hope this won't get repetitive, the same joke can only get you so far.
On the other hand, I already love Ristarte.
Busty goddesses everywhere too.
I guess at the end he was actually right, you never know what enemies you could find, and a demon lord did show up.

Need some time to kill so rewatching this and I have to say, this was a mixed bag of a start, but not horrendous at least. I'm not a fan generally of series like these that rely on one sole gimmick, like being overly cautious here or just having a smartphone like with "In Another World With my Smartphone" or just a comedy series like those teasing ones (Takagi-san) since it limits I believe the amount you could do with the series before it runs dry. Seiya already felt too excessive and over the top with the cautiousness where at some scenes, he wasn't that fun to watch at all. Did like him running away though near the end. Ristarte was by far the best aspect of the episode with Aki Toyosaki doing a great job with the wacky voice acting overall, but this kind of ordeal with Ristarte could also run dry really quickly in an episode or two if too repetitive. Some nice facial reactions though.

But hey, I liked this start much more than Shield Hero at least. That's something? This episode had some nice moments at times and didn't bore or frustrate me, although some moments the humor missed big time too and felt forced.

Hilarious first episode. The aspect of trying to over level and being over prepared reminds me a lot when I played Final Fantasy as a kid lol. Definitely heard a lot about this anime and also saw some clips on YT. Doesn't seem to be like the usual Isekai, but that can obviously change fast. Let's see how this will develop over the next couple episodes.

I almost forgot. OP is an absolute banger. Love it!

A pretty funny first episode. Gonna see if this gets better.
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

This show seems to have both a healthy amount of hilarity and plot.

High on the facial expression game, too!

I started this because I heard Rista was like the blue thing, but I actually find her way more agreeable than the MC. Dude is borderline obnoxious

I guess there was a reason why I didnt watch this when it way airing

As I saw a clip of this online, made me instantly want to re-watch this series so here I am.
I'm still enjoying this kind of comedy, the facial expression of Rista and this overly cautious hero blasting that slime more than necessary. This is gonna be a fun re-watch.

Very mid start. Konosuba was far more entertaining.
