AbemaTV streamed the first episode today.

Typical lighthearted fantasy anime featuring a protagonist who has a lot of inner thoughts. I mean, Aghea isn't really impressive on the surface but I guess they're trying to make him appear as cute as possible. He also meets some interesting people....it's not everyday you get to see a beautiful girl emerge from a flower. But yeah, it's kinda what I had expected. I guess the setting has some potential along with the story.

ABEMA Early Airing ahead of Summer 2025 release.

Novelist Yashiro's lone work just reeks too much of the similar concepts done before, from Takuma Sakai's Buta no Liver a.k.a Butareba: The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig, as well as Mirajin A's Tensei Kizoku, Kantei Skill de Nariagaru a.k.a As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I'll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World, though this work preceded them being released first sice January 2020.


The Shirobuta of 5-year-old Ageha Kikunoi, the eldest son of Count Kikunoi, alongside his mansion's nursehelpers and his little brother of Regulus, it seems that even a fatso kid like him lives quite the happy life, though he'd only just been reborn from a reincarnation of his previous life being very engaged in otakudom until the brink of death, after suffering quite the week-long fever. Together with his close attendant of Adelheid Rottenmeier who tends to him much of the time when his parents and servants all but abandoned him for his rather obese figure, the change starting from him by way of doing things like cooking and sewing helps enrich his life.

The flower garden where Ageha gets to sing his heart out, and elf Aleksei Romanov being his tutor who chides him in his hobbies being part of his skills (that just don't form part of being a noble), he can be quite the tease to Ageha. But a peony being in the flower garden, which reveals Princess Hyakka, the Goddess of Healing, Fertility and Blessings who can hear his heart after him singing songs in the garden itself, her bestowing her power to Ageha on the premise that he sings for her very now and then. And Romanov being intrigued to see Hyakka for himself and learn the songs that came from his world, but to twist it and make it his since songs don't exist, everything's good for now...until the news of his parents returning to the mansion, with Regulus.

Wanuka's OP is rather nice, and the same can be said for Ms. Ooja's ED.

It's a decent start, though rather kind of slow.

It's such a peaceful healing anime, though when Goddess asking about heaven invitation seems a little bit scary because I don't know the meaning behind her words.

This one was an odd duck to me. Has some potential but a couple things just didn’t jive well for me with this one:
1) Super chunky like 5-year old was just disconcerting to me. I guess it’s just another way to show how “different” this MC is.
2) Elf sensei was creepy with his cheek squishing and didn’t really appear competent as an instructor.
3) I had to skip the singing sections cause the vocals weren’t even mediocre...they were, for me, genuinely unpleasant. Yes, he’s a kid, etc. but if you are going to put music/vocals in an anime, please make them at least decent.

Everything about this anime is so boring I can barely stay awake to finish first episode. I only enjoy the chinese BGM that accompany Goddess' appearance scene, so I'll collect its soundtrack album if it's released.
