| Interesting how the anime skipped a bit of the Eva scene in the manga, since his friend at school who was lending him the videos spoiled the ending of the show for him. Overall, episodes have been as I expect. I do wish there would be a few more Sega references but it's nice to see things like Guardian Heroes get some limelight. Also ANOTHER Alien Soldier reference, there's gonna be a lot of these, I think the author loves that game. |
| Maybe I'm too young for this series? By the time I was old enough to play video games SEGA had already stopped making consoles for at least 7 years. I don't get any of the SEGA references so maybe that's the reason I don't find this too funny? |
 |
| This is hilarious |
 |
| I like the designs of the girls. The animation is pretty good. |

| Ojisan look like the titan that ate Erens mom. |
 |
| As someone who used to play Golden Axe 2 day and night this anime really hits home |
| Shit's keep getting better and better, this is really becoming one of my favorites this season. Our Ojisan just can't help loving SEGA, and hey nice to see Takafumi bringing back the consoles and games of his life, what a nice gesture. And hey I don't think you've noticed yet, but damn this show actually looks so great. The character designs for Mabel (Ice Queen at its best), and Fujimiya (who surprisingly has waifu potential), is A-tier, and of course Elf as well. I can't help but drool a little bit, and their dere types doesn't help me much more, I just love it. Things are nice so far, and hey this show actually brought me back to Netflix, even though it is worse off now than the time I left it.... |
 |
| Asuka is top tier waifu I agree |
 |
| - "197th place? What?" - ojisan is like me some decades ago, when I cared about stupid stuff like rankings. - Going directly after the boss (the dragon), ignoring the side quests, shows that ojisan wasn't playing around. - Wow, this is me at festivities. I eat my meal and go to my room. Drunk people sure get noisy and really annoying. - Ojisan created an ice queen monster? That's what life lessons from him do to you. - The God Freezon Sword is cold? That goes without saying, no? - It's funny how female characters look prettier and cutier even IRL in this show. - What a typically japanese way to twist "17 years in coma" into "haven't worked for 17 years". - "The enemy"? Well duuuh, 3D girls are enemies to otakus. - "You like Takafumi.". I guess ojisan is right about human relationships once in a blue moon. - Now that's a valid reason to watch Eva - the SEGA commercials. - I did not get that Kaji reference (no, I am not watching Eva). - I did not get the not buying rice online thing. Like it's probably cheaper and the delivery guy is being paid for delivering it, what's the fuss about? |

Like it's probably cheaper and the delivery guy is being paid for delivering it, what's the fuss about? From what I heard the thing with kaiji is that its the most apparent thing ever for anyone who watched eva. As for ths rice its because the delivery guy got back pain from carrying it and he felt lethal intent from him |

Kokoro_135 said: felt lethal intent from him - Fujimiya hated the rice buying part too. - Takafumi said something like "refrain buying rice online". It's implied that buying rice online in Japan is rude, like "Buy it and bring it home yourself!" but I am not sure why. Maybe it's actually unreasonably more expensive thus considered waste of money and other resources? |

Fujimiya just wanted Uncle gone so that she could be roommates with Takafumi. The delivery guy is pissed because he had to lug that 15kg sack up four flights of stairs. |

Ojisan just casually levitating and pulling up to the crib in the background. Best shot I've seen all week I for one think that it makes it far more interesting than to look at Ojisan's other world life as flashbacks, rather than to have the anime of him actually being there. It's probably because we only see the good stuff and have any bs igonred that you might usually see in isekai. We just see the fun and uh, "heartfelt" moments, cutting out the lesser moments and other downtime in between. Also to have him to have retained his powers from the other world also just makes for some damn good reverse isekai. |

| Didnt even realize Aoi Yuuki voicing Mabel. She sound so different there |
 |
| I can safely say this is one of my favorites this season, this was such a good episode 2. Fujimiya is a certified babe, it’s funny that Takafumi has his own tsundere he doesn’t realize is into him lol. And I really liked the wholesome bit where Takafumi bought Ojisan a Sega Saturn and then they gamed together, his reaction was hilarious too lol. And man I really love the flashback and how they’re commented on by Ojisan and Takafumi, it makes it especially hilarious seeing how Ojisan is indifferent to most of it and doesn’t realize what he’s done and Takafumi is just in shock lol, I don’t think it’ll ever get old for me, it was especially great with the Mabel bit. I also liked the direct references to Evangelion, Asuka truly is a revolutionary tsundere. And wow, that was a really good ED, very nice song and nice visuals, a chill way to end episodes! |

| Uncle's one and only love will be Sega. End of discussion |
| This show is pure gold. |
| Yep, definitely my reason for the season. I can't properly describe the feelings of euphoria I get whenever the characters talk about the thing that I recognise, especially in the case of all that Sega pandering. I hope there's a bit where Ojisan learns about the Sega Hard Girls lol |

| Takafumi’s disappointing reactions whenever he watches his Uncle’s past are too funny |
 |
| i was surprised how scary the uncle can be sometimes |
 |
| Damn, that was good. Early AOTS pick right now, hopefully it can keep it's quality. |
| I like the way they drew the characters for the anime, a little bit different from the manga but cooler looking. |
ow + nw = 90-2000s |
| A bit less funnier compared to S2! but it looks like Fujimiya is has feelings for Takafumi!?!? that's cute!! 5/5. |
 |
| oh my god Alien Storm, damn that is my childhood game wtf my boy buying Sega Saturn for Ojisan.... Let's go Sega Nostalgia in 2022!! Ojisan understand love from watching Evangelion... lmao why the girls design are so pretty and cute?? i love it |
 |
| That was super funny episode. I laughed though the entire episode. |
 |
| I'm gay but Fujimiya looks very attractive. |
| So many references, glad I know most of them, and he almost erased the new character's memory. |
 |
| Watching this anime makes me feel very comfortable maybe because takumi's interaction with his uncle, talking casually and doing normal things calmly always feels comfortable to watch. Another good episode 5/5 |

| My brother who read the manga called this Blue Balls Isekai. Now I understand what he means. |
~ May all the beauty be blessed ~ |
| So the series time jumped to 2018 now. I hope it catches up to modern times but it probably won't. Would be fun seeing them adjust to covid and stuff. I thought the girl from the OP was Takafumi's mom. Guess she's a childhood friend. Takafumi cringes at his ojisan acting dense to isekai girls but he himself doesn't recognize that Fujimiya loves him. Loving the artstyle and animation of this show. I think this is the first anime of a new studio? |
| Ojisan is unbelievable and I'll never get tired of Takafumi's reactions. So Ojisan is only dense when it comes to himself. |

raifuresu said: Look, uncle, I also watched all of Evangelion in Junior High, you are not special!! Anyway, this anime makes me sad and then kills me inside bc I always feel SAD when uncle tells about how lonely he was in the other world... All bc he's ugly and a nerd. Nah. It's all because he's so oblivious to the women's feelings that it's sad. It's his own fault. |
 |
| this shit show so funny !! i really loved this !! |

Gotta protect that wholesome smile |

Vooo said: Ojisan look like the titan that ate Erens mom. OMG! I thought it was just me! especially when he smiles! |
| This anime is actually goated lol |
 |
| What a great episode. The comedy was definitely on point, and I enjoyed the various references they had. |
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. |
| I see my high expectations for this show didn't betray me. This is hilarious! |
