I like it so far, this 'what if' theme is done nicely and first ep was fun. If this series doesn't turn out to be cliche 'I have to fight for this world and become hero' thing but rather explore business endeavours and practices of Japan government and organizations, I am sold.

Almost like a mashup of Henneko and Mondaiji in a weird way.

Since I liked both, I expect quite something from this one :D

Ah it feels so good to actually be able to do late series pickups again.

Lol monthly salary 300000 yen + residence provided, no experience required, age irrelevant. If I saw a job like that I'd close it instantly, convinced that it was just a scam.

200 questions, 10 minutes. 3 seconds per question. Pretty tight. But he did it in barely over half the required time?

Always let the other person drink first. That's basics when in a suspicious setting...

But anyway... He drinks, and wakes up in another world.

And what a job, eh?

Looking forward to watching more of this.

Looks like this is going to be a fun watch for me.
I'm liking the atmosphere and the scenery.
Miusel is adorable and Kanou seems cool.
Yeah, what is so bad about being an otaku =_=
"I freaking love little girls" ahahaha.
Nice start. Let's see what's next.

They really should have trained him better before introducing him to the Supreme Loli Tsundere, or at least warned him.

That was a fairly funny first episode! I've lookinf for this show for a while since I saw some gif of it floating around tumblr. FINALLY found it.
I just might love this, considering i loved shows like Dog Days, and Astarotte no Omocha.

They made the main character look younger and more perverted then in the manga. They also cut out the part about his parents cutting down his bedroom door with a chainsaw wearing hockey masks. Also left out more of the conversation with his childhood friend talking about why she wont go out with him.

All in all the anime as of the first episode sucks. We don't get the feeling he is a real NEET and also don't truely understand why he became one (practically betrayal from his childhood friend).

OP song - 5/5

Pretty impressive first episode and I already loved it!! The theme songs were also great.

I didnt know that moe definition! I thought moe meaning is cute girls doing cute things. Woah!
If I were in Shin-ichi position, I dont want to be a manager but instead watch anime.

Maid is voiced by Mimori Suzuko!! And she is pretty cute with elf ear.

I also like the Fantasy settings just like SAO.

Rental Madoka, LOL XD

Empress is loli, good...good!!

ED song - 5/5

if anyone's curious about that "DaDaDaDa" soundtrack heard throughout the anime (which i personally found to be hilarious and adding greatly to the humor of the situation), it's N ↓ DA ↑ GI ↑ NA ↓ DA ☆

can be found here:
https://soundcloud.com/echizen-mix/n-da-gi-na-da

otherwise, watching it from the summer 2016 season, i really enjoyed it especially since i didn't have to compare it to other anime as y'all did when it first aired (i've seen hentai ouji or problem kids used for comparisons, and i didn't feel it) so it felt pretty fresh to me.

art looked pretty good too, first impression of myucel was best heroine (which continued throughout the series), petralka as tsundere obviously starting off tsun, and okay with mc (since i have rarely heard natsuki hanae - mc's voice actor - take the role of the enthusiastic char) - who fits what i think of as a trend of towards a more modern mc that speaks his mind about how attractive/cute something is or is more blunt/active about the situation (like subaru from re:zero, kazuma from konosuba).

edit: regarding Outbreak Company's foreign language that those of the Holy Empire of Erdant speak, i'm pretty sure it's just backwards english.
for example, we're greeted by myucel calling mc "Retasam", and we know throughout the rest of the series he's referred to as "Danna-sama" which in english is "Master"
therefore "Retasam" ~ "Master"

she also says the sentence "Efas ouway ela, Retasam?"
which looks pretty difficult since the script writers are (i think) putting english backwards text-wise and then reading it, which doesn't necessarily sound like replaying a tape you just recorded backwards
anyway, "Efas ouway ela, retasam?" ~ "masater, ale yawuo safe?", which taking into account the japanese have L's & R's the same character could be retranslated as
"Master, are you safe?" or taking account that translation from japanese to english might be liberal (so let's fix the english to make it sound better, context-wise"
as "Master, are you doing okay?"

tl;dr - the Erdant language is probably japanese translated into english, with the english flipped and the gibberish sentence read

edit edit: you might be wondering why i even bothered looking into the language, well it's because i think it shows that the director or script writers or whoever put more thought into the initial interactions between persons of different worlds, creating a new language (even though it was easy to decipher), which should deserve some respect from the community. recall that anime such as "the devil is a part-time worker" or "suisei no gargantia" also had foreign languages created for their respective anime to bring forth the feel of "yeah, these guys are totally foreign" instead of a much more lazy approach of having both parties speaking the same language and then saying in the background, "actually the other party is speaking a foreign language even though the audience can hear 'both' languages as the same language"

Didn't see the reference listed, so:

~7:10 he says "Oh wow, it's like San d'Oria in Vanna."

This is in reference to the city of San d'Oria in the world of Vana'diel from the MMORPG Final Fantasy XI.

As if it wasn't bad enough Japan has been destroying its birthrate with otaku culture, it's now trying to unleash the devil's work that is anime onto the poor unsuspecting people of this issekai world. Won't somebody think of the children?!1!

But really though, I enjoyed this episode way more than I thought I would.

And the queen towards the end looks like a loli version of Kirino.

Nice premise with the parallel world establishment. Glad the wormhole is 3d in this one. Just like Interstellar.

Also, the maid is real cute. I wouldn't mind her changing my clothes, if you know what I mean. *insert pervert face*

For the awkward parts, there was a classic Indian music going on. Here's the video link. Liked how it also came with game music.



I would like to know more about this world. The premise is original.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

Legal loli punch, from royalty at that


This could be nice. Seems more promising than other isekai series.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron
