The destruction of Solomon's kingdom as we know it, by the usual demon herd, but in full CGI. And they have no choice but to declare war, holding the fort while Mira makes her way back from the Forest.

Even with Solomon and Luminaria, there're only Three Wise Men against one ugly-ass CGI raid dragon beast, and this is where Mira pits all of her skills as the greatest sage Wise Men Danblf into play, all 3 worked together as former players to take down the beast which isn't easy at all.

All up for tea-time when all is said and done, and continuing to find the rest of the Wise Men, that's Mira's lifelong quest.

Eh, not the best but quite typical for Studio A-CAT standards...which is average at best.

Very good finale.

For me, this was the biggest surprise of the season. I don't know, but I just loved this show and all the characters so much, especially Mira and the Cat Sith. :)

The rating for MAL may not really be that good, however, I had a lot of fun and enjoyment watching this series. Man, if there were a sequel, say no more, I will watch it! but I hope they would fix those uncanny animation.

The inner voices of Solomon was really hilarious... XD

Ending it with a party raid was stunning.

Though, that last part of "I'm cute" statement was really cringe. lol

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Eh... the quality of the finale was mediocre and feels rushed.

Overall, story was fine, characters were fine, but quality and pacing was lacking.

5/10 - Would meh again.

Honestly the things that's still completely beyond me was that terrible first episode which featured Mira's life before she became a girl, this wasn't featured in the Light Novel nore the manga so why was it in the anime.
It was a disaster.
And the effects of that where still seeable in this episode they didn't even have time to properly explain what was going on this episode was just rushing a lot of scenes into a single episode.
Which made this anime which had a lot of promise into something average i just hope this wont effect future genderbenders as there are some really good light novels in the genre.

But i guess we will have to see in the future.

I kinda enjoyed it, and in no thanks due to the abysmal animation and non-existent direction. The only reason I could even stomach watching this trainwreck is because of the thoroughly entertaining story crafted by the author. But that in itself just makes me despair even more, because if this garbage could be enjoyable, just how much more would I have enjoyed a good, or even just average, adaptation? Studio A-CAT should never be allowed to make another anime.

“Meh” is a great descriptor of this utter mediocre Isekai power fantasy. There were a few good points like when the MC was exploring Soul Howard’s castle alone (nice atmosphere with a touch of trepidation), and I’m probably one of the few who liked the silent montage in the first episode, but the story and visuals really let this down. I also constantly got plot points confused with Leadle a lot and vise versa, that’s how generic they were.

My biggest problem with this one was how the MC had virtually no adjustment process towards becoming a girl, beyond some half hearted protests against frilly dresses and the weird urination fetish the author apparently has. She even made a natural covergirl pose when riding that dragon a few episodes back; I was constantly forgetting it was supposed to be a former old man character. Compare to the other gender bender this season where that MC very much behaves like a guy throughout and is unnaturally over-top when trying to act womanly.

Still not as bad as Kenja no Mago or Isekai Smartphone though. 5/10.

Great episode! The ugly CGI dragon finally got destroyed by Mira ad her summons. The meteor attack didn't destroy it instantly surprisingly a lot xD.
Pam wanting a hug before buffing Solomon was funny.

This show was decent but nothing more really. At least for me it was enjoyable though a decent amount. I don't think we will get a season 2 but I wouldn't be opposed to it if we did.

And so Danblf/Mira and her two other buddies defeat a hideous cg abomination as we end this rather bland, mediocre, and ultimately forgettable little series. 6/10

Honestly that big final fight felt like it was ripped out of a VN rather than being from an actual anime. The whole time I was just thinking "Okay, next slide please."

I enjoyed the story well enough, but I definitely had a lot of issues with the animations being so clunky. Overall, it was okay-to-mediocre.

Ah yes an all out attack from your beloved old man disguised as a loli under the raid boss situations. I thought Solomon won't never get a chance in action. Its good to know Pam return to satisfied my eyes around all that cg. Yes cg...

All in all, if only the visuals are better, my enjoyment shall be high upper on the sky. But holy shit man, nothing i can do to stop that 3d goblin rampaging, and then those white pale dragon. Maybe reading the source can cleanse up my mind over that nightmares? Oh yeah, maybe someday later...

liking how they showed the faces of the valkyries inside the helmets. Anyway, decent final fight. Need to weaken the hp of that black dragon first, then summon Eisenfald to finish it off.

and I guess Mira likes being a loli instead of an old man. She is indeed cute. lol

Despite all of the hate about this show, I'd say the background artists did great job, in my personal opinion, some landscapes are top notch visual on par (probably) with Zestria by ufotable.

Glad I didn't end up dropping this during that absolutely dire first episode.

It manages to recover quite nicely with its general comedy style and large cast of amusing characters. That said, the animation quality never gets any better and the action scenes are a consistent low point.

full ugg cg, at least Mira & others fight in their shown limitations.
hey chunlee again in ed.
Such disjointed slow plot, forgot Clausen, spirits, forget warring kingdoms, didn't collect any of 9 wise men (Mira found Meyrin but...). Maybe it more enjoyable as some sol adventure of sidequests, mc that player who ignores the mainquest.
Highlight's the fun characters tho, Mira chill isekai mc never annoying, relationships with Pam, Mariana & Tact quite heartwarming.

Well, as usual

While everyone seems to be easily eliminating the horde of goblins, they're still way outnumbered and the only real way to win is with Mira's ultra OP-ness

Pretty much without Mira, all they can do is stall, lol

___ ___ ___

Then we got Dragon Raid Boss fight.

And Mira shows off her full Summons like she did back in episode one when she was still playing the game as the old dude.

We've gone full loop.

PAM still best summon. I want to hug her too, so cute.

Kinda interesting how Mira's dragon is stronger than the Raid Boss... lol... should have just used the dragon in the beginning to begin with.

___ ___ ___

And it ends with Mira in twintails... I wonder if Mira did that herself or was she caught by the maids again, lol

Mira heading out to go on more adventure and having loads of fun with her chibi Tiger mascot summon.

This show sucked floppy donkey dick! Absolutely horrible, so please for the greater good don't ever let there be a S2.
I don't understand how anyone can rate this over a 5, for me it gets a 2 and that's generous. This show, Land of Leadale and Strong sage weak crest we're the three worst animes this season.

Sadly the only memorable thing about this show will be the strange running "joke" where she has to piss at weird times or places.

The gender bender part wasn't even that big a deal for this show unlike ordinary guy fantasy knockout.

I'll leave you with this meme which sums up this show.

I don't think there's any actual gender bending to begin with. If you look at the brief flashback scene showing their 'real life' bodies at the movie theater, it seems like the protagonist could be a girl.

Meaning the only gender bending was with the original appearance.

Actually, Mira is most likely a guy.

Remember, Mira started out the series being embarrassed to go use the toilet.

And Mira at the beginning and the end did the full loop of saying "I am cute"

Unless Mira is a narcissist... the only reason she would say she's "cute" is cause she's either a guy or ugly in real life....

Well, this certainly didn't feel like the end. Not really looking forward to a second season but won't mind it if we do get a second season whose chances seem really low.

Mira went all out with her fighting and those action scenes were great. The CGI was still bad though.

Nothing else to say. Overall, 6/10.

Considering we got Fantasy Knockout in the same season and adaptation of Ayakashi Triangle and "Reborn to Master the Blade: From Hero-King to Extraordinary Squire ♀" were announced also Youjo Senki will get second season, genderbender subgenre seems safe.

That, along with the 'I can't believe my tastes were revealed' bits, read more like the old tomboy girl trope of "I look awful in cute/girly clothes".

If not for the atrocious cgi fight scenes, the show would have been enjoyable as just another seasonal junkfood isekai. Ended up skipping about every fight scene or tabbing away during them.

The overall show sure had a lot of moments emphasizing Mira going to or having to pee. Not sure if that's something part of the original series or something the staff decided to include.

Kind of lame they teased certain characters and we basically never got to see them or see them again.

Ehhh I think this was rated too harshly but also not without reason. I think the main offendees are the ones who read previous light novel or manga sources as this would be a terrible adaptation.

Putting aside the jank cgi and the rough start of the first couple eps, if you go in expecting something just small and fun than it really wasn't that bad.

Everything was basically a set up for something down the road, no real story, just a cute girl with fun summons going on random quests. Oh and if you have a pee fetish you'll probably love this lmao

Boring so boring. this anime better be off as isekai reincarnated in a world of Ark Earth Online. rather than some weird 30 years npc is alive and you can smell and eat and taste.
makes no sense. nothing is mentioning that if characters in real life is death or alive or old or young. no mention if the game is advance to more science or some crap. I watched 2 episodes. and it's super boring. can't believe during its airing it's simul Dub. both dub and sub are air at the same time.

Comment on series as a whole: The fight scenes are poor in quality. On a scale of unwatchable-very bad-bad-average, i would give it a bad rating. Particularly of note is the cartoonish blood (or lackthereof) and the funny bits where a monster is split in 2 and you can really tell they literally just cut up the CG into 2. This is at least slightly better than Shikkakumon (Weakest Crest) which was in the same season in terms of animation quality for the fight scenes. In regards to general animation, it is still rather average with a genrous amount of CGI applied to make up for places where poor animation can be slightly seen. The only redeeming feature would have to be the cute MC (Mira not Danbalf).

If you had read the light novel you might be disappointed with the amount of material cut, skipped and glossed over. Episode 1 at the beginning did nicely at setting up the world but it pretty much went downhill from there in terms of adaptation. If you had not read the light novel, those little details and cut content may not seem to matter much but the last episode should seem a little overboard. I mean, all of a sudden, we get the time-space distortions we just talked about and monsters appearing all over the place without any explanations given as to how or why this is happening.

This whole event just seemed set-up just for the sake of having a somewhat epic battle of our protagonists fighting against a large horde of enemies culminating in a raid boss at the end (btw, the events of the last episode did not happen in the light novel as of the point of adaptation). It was unnecessary. The music is rather average as well, failing to really hype up the battles (from my perspective).
