God, the MC overreacted too much there. The confrontation scene in the dungeon with Gus felt too cheesy with all the unnecessary sobbing. Other than that, decent episode. Seems we'll be getting a good fight next episode.

Is this anime good? I'm thinking of dropping it because it's starting to bore me. All they do is talk about the history.
edit: I stopped watching at the start of this episode 2, I didn't finish it.

I'm getting more and more interested in their true intentions. In the previous episode, Gus made it clear they weren't raising him out of the goodness of their heart. My guess for the reason they raised Will is too someday free them from their curse of undead. They can't do it themselves for some reason, maybe a living breathing person has to be the one?? What if the undead can't leave the city, maybe a barrier prevents it? Idk it can be anything, we're only two episodes in...

Also Gus tries to kill him in the dungeon and later he told him to lose his upcoming match against Blood with no explanation. My guess for Gus wanting Will to throw the fight is because he might think Will isn't ready for the brutal outside world. But that doesn't explain why he was initially planning to kill him.

Also we find our mc will eventually have to choose a God to form a covenant with. I wonder who he will choose? I bet it will be a choice that will shock everybody. This is getting interesting.

I feel like things are going to pick up from here on out. These episodes so far were kind of slow, but informative on this verse. The main thing that has my interest so far is the mysteries with Will's guardians.

4/5

I'm extremely vibing with this show

also I'm terribly afraid Will is going to have to kill one or more of his parents. It just feels like maybe they're preparing him to euthanize them, but they know they instinctually will fight to the death to survive, so they're trying to make sure he's as strong as possible. Gus maybe tried to kill him because all of them are gradually starting to lose their shreds of remaining humanity and become true monsters, and they want to die for good before that can happen.

that's really where the story obviously seems to be going

Another excellent episode, particularly for Will's duel with Gus in the underground. I'm still not 100% sure whether Gus was betraying Will or just teaching him a lesson, but I think not telling us right now puts us in Will's position of uncertainty and makes the emotion land with all the more impact.

It is starting to seem likely that Will's going to be forced into a very difficult decision when it comes time for him to become an adult and leave the nest: he may be under Mary, Blood and Gus's protection now, but will that really be the case once he's no longer their responsibility?

Some surprisingly lousy voice acting in both of Will's dramatic scenes. The abrupt way his voice went all screamy was comical.

More teachings from the trio of undead. Gus teaching always be intriguing cause its give me more of the world building. The virtuous and evil concept can be the opposite depends on how people have a faith over some aspects. Still, for the human sake and safety, it might be better to keep the faith as same as them, an oath for Mater, or Volt. However, is that really the right choice while having the journey alone? Gus kinda tried to give the young soul, Will that lesson, it seems. Especially with how the progress of development to the adulthood of him can't be stop, no matter what. Example of how good he was, defeating one and two undeads, and then dodging every child's play of Gus, even on that one last near-death experience. Forget about the gambling. Its really bad for you, kid! Remember Mary long and steady lecture for your good future!

In the end, whatever it was, it will always right to Will, to choose the answer, on how own will. The payday. That's it all, and, yeah, lets see next....

I think the anime will slowly pick up the pace and the action, maybe at around episode 4 or 5 there will be a shift so come back then or watch it after it finishes airing. I'm personally enjoying it because of themes in this show so far (faith, undead, isekai, magic).

pretty nice ep, big time skip but its not a big deal, gambling scene was pretty funny lol. cant believe some ghost and a skeleton is teaching a 13 yr old kid they've raised since he was a kid to gamble LMAO thank god marry is here.

i really liked the op and ed, gave of some kind of "old magic" vibe idk how to explain it but the op had a similar vibe to mushoku tensei

Feels more laidback than drugstorebanished or just grey/empty unsure.
Nice mc becomes MonkeyKing.
3 parents pretty cool lots of secrets, but Will va or character very weak can't carry the show.
I like the adulthood oath to a chosen god for divine protection, gives more depth to mechanics of this world.

Hah.
No.
I am struggling quite a bit with Will voice, Maki kawase did some real great male voice acting in the past (damn will's voice is the same as Askeladd, WTH?!) but I still feel like hearing and seeing a girl.

Also all these secrets about the universe, about his past life, about how the world run keep me from being really invested in the show, it's like I am seeing a really long prologue for the moment.

I will wait until he becomes adult, this time he is still naive. Btw nice training. I feel like Gust can spell better magic, so i don't think he will betray us.

Really, this isekai looks like To Your Eternity and i love it. The plot and development is rare to see. People need to upgrade their taste soon or later.

It is seriously hard to watch when the MC is having a much much sissy drawing compare to manga.

This episode was supposed to be emotion to me but what I feel was just some sissy guy begging to live.


Imo this better than manga drawing

There was not enough emotional buildup to the intended climax scenes. That usually leads to corniness.

The fight with Gus kinda felt rushed but overall it is going nicely.

This is like “dull yet enjoyable” type of anime.

The ED by Nagi Yanagi is beautiful.

Wow in their world I guess they get facial hair more quicker, where else Will that lives in our previous world goes at a different pace. I hope Gus has a good reason for not telling Will anything.

This show has a weird dynamic, are they just preparing Will for adult life, or are they grooming him for something?

The mystery elements of this show are strong. Was Gus trying to kill Will and if so why? It appears that he sneaked in those tunnels without Blood's knowledge in order to attack / train(?) Will. Is Gus afraid of Will's increasing power and knowledge? What secrets are they keeping from Will? Are his biological parents alive? We shall soon find out I guess..

Hmm interesting, Will is growing up and is training/learning more and more from them but their behavior is still mysterious since they're hiding him a lot of things, it was especially weird during Gus' attack but we'll see how it will develop later.

its obvious why Augustus asked him to loose to Blood, its connected to Bloods emotions what keep Blood in the world of the living, so if he wins Blood gets rests in peace and Augustus doesn't want to loose he company

I wonder if the reason the 3 are the only ones in the city is because they broke their oath somehow. Pretty curious to learn just what’s going on, there definitely seems to be some kind of big secret the 3 are keeping considering how hard they’re pushing the kid in his training. I think Gus asked him to go easy on Blood because Blood probably wants to die. Gus too. They just can’t do it themselves perhaps, they need someone to do it for them.

Maybe I’m just reading way too much into things lol.

Loving the development so far. Not sure how it will go from here, but I like the 3 family figures from the undead leading the MC. Also the mystery of Gus (the ghost sage) perhaps having an urge to be an out-of-control undead, and then fighting it back and acting like nothing happened.

If Gus is transparent, then Will must've be failing to read him for a long time.
