Pretty calming OP. The region of Zoltan sounds like a nice area to retire too. Still Red's dream sure is a admirable one. Rather than trying to find riches he prefers to instead aspire to open his own Apothecary and help people. Must be tough though when your younger sister is the hero. Wow Albert sure was one arrogant fellow. Its nice to see that Red has lost none of his skills as a adventurer though. Took some time but its nice to see Red get his shop open. Red's speech at the party did well to outline his aspirations in life though. Overall an interesting opening ep that did well to introduce the mc and the world as well as the kind of pace that we can expect. While his abilities as an adventurer are powerful the fact that he only uses it to help people and not show off was an interesting idea in itself. Curious to see what will happen when Rit meets him though. This series has a pretty similar feel to Realist hero too which is another bonus.

Dude, you can't do this to me, you can't give me a big titted cute girl voiced by Nao Touyama and not have her be the main girl. I hope I like the female MC more than the receptionist xD. So far at least I like her character design.

Other than that, this was a pretty good start. MC is quite likeable, Ares is an asshole and I don't know what to think of the little sister so yeah, looking forward to more.

I bet that red was keeping ruti sane the whole time that red was in the party, and ares just destroyed that. I also want ares to die a horrible death.

Ares is the very definition of an asshole. He must have had another reason to kick Red out of the party.

I was surprised by the OP and ED and I'm looking forward to more of this.

A pretty comfy vibe that this SOL gives off. The OP is chill as hell.
Not sold out for the character designs which are pretty standard and reminds me of the dungeon anime from last year. An enjoyable watch IG.

And here we have the more laid back show of the season, at least so I thought, but I still see something for the plot where Red will be dragged into, for example his Imouto..

It's a decent start, one I will most definitely stick with cause I can never grow tired of blondes with blue eyes. I am gonna love Rit this season that's for sure. Then again all the other girls are pretty good, Adventure Guild girl as well.

Production value is better than expected, didn't really have high expectations in that regard due to some relatively unknown studios working on this show.

Honestly, I started the first episode with very low expectations and I'm actually impressed. In typical fantasy hero animes, we always see the hero go to stores at multiple times and that's usually it. We never really see what it's like being one of the shopkeepers or just a normal citizen living in a fantasy world like that which is why I'm pretty interested in this.

Whilst I think it could've been alot better, I'm still pleasantly surprised.

Not gonna lie, I kinda love the show...slow and steady.

But I really think that Ruti Girl is another obnoxious character with Anicon Complex.

I really hope they're keep it solid and realistic.

well this didn't really do much for me but it's okay, glad it isn't really edgy with such a insanely long dumb title

though i feel the OP and ED nailed the chill vibes far more than the actual show those were hitting laid back camp levels of comfy vibes for music.


will give it a few more goes dude is just a drugdealer for is pasttime now really hope it isn't like last dungeon where hes actually insanely op despite being told hes useless since hes surrounded by a bunch of weak nobodies compared to where he used to be in the heroes party

Truth be told I was kinda uninterested in this thing until I saw the ED. If the ED really is a teaser for what's to come i.e. if this is going to stick to being a romance/slice of life, it could turn out to be good. If they decide to turn the plot over it's head and start fighting bad guys and save the world, I think it will go downhill fast. I guess I'll stick around for a few more episodes to see which direction it goes in.

The OP and ED definitely had a much stronger atmosphere than the entire episode, not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

I really enjoyed that, I loved the chill vibes and we haven't even officially met the waifu yet. Honestly craving for more. This is way better than Cheat Pharmacist Isekai last season for me.

Fuck Ares though, what a piece of shit. OP and ED where super comfy though, made me forget about Ares's bitch ass. Looking forward for more comf.

Chill first episode so far and a little backstory for Red. I'm honestly watching this just for the romance but I hope it comes with a more interesting story cause it's feeling like it'll have some sort of twist at some point lol

This was better than I thought it'd be (3rd pharmacy isekai of the year, that should be it's own genre at this point), interested in seeing what happens next.

The way blonde lady learned about the MC was really contrived though. Receptionist just randomly going on at length and publically about his crime and how the guild overlooked it? They could've found a less hamfisted way to do that.

It's legit amazing how this anime manages to make an unlikeable MC, disrespect it's own plot summary and show the author has no idea what he's writing all in just a single episode.

He should've made this an isekai at this point, if he's gonna add so many wish-fulfilment cliches from it.

I kind of like this anime because I like how Red just wants to open a shop and live a slow life. I hope this show is good. So far after the first ep I think that it's going to be good.

kinda average, feels like Cheat Kusushi but more slow-life.
A few annoying adventurers, but likely justifies why Red's going for laidback pharmacy. lol Guild receptionist totally into Red.

Wow, seriously that dude who was his party member can go F#$# himself. He was higher level then them first and he didn't say that shit to them right? Also, he was with them fighting and working together and they TAKE his shit? I know this is slice of life so it won't happen but I really wish his party would go die already because they didn't have a guide, that one conversation made me despise him. Just because he was using gear to fight doesn't mean he wasn't fighting and wasn't a member of the party. Ugh. He better not forgive them and become an ally with them EVER. CS'er

Well, you'll be happy to hear what happens to the party without Red (if the adaptation gets it right). At least in the Light Novel it's often shown what the Hero's party is doing at the moment.

The OP/ED shows that Red and Rit might not be just yer avg "dense couple" but they rather might get really intimate with each other.. (ihopeso)

I don't really like this show after watching the first episode.

Red wanted to be a pharmacist yet he is known as the best "doctor" in the village.

Then what is the point of the actual doctor, the old bald guy we saw?

Also, I am surprised that he doesn't even own anything yet despite being known as on of the best in the village.

This is contradicting.
Red isn't known as the best "doctor" in the village,he's an Apothecary,and as such knows more about herbs and such(due to his skills)than the doctors,which is why he wanted to open his own Apothecary shop,and he doesn't own that yet since he still has to spend money on lodgings and such whilst making money by gathering and selling herbs.

Being an LN reader I thought this was quite a good adaption.They got Red's character decently,the animation isn't bad,the OP was pretty good,though I'm not that taken with the ED.All in all,very good so far.
