Grey-Zone said: ExTz_Thomazz said: i think it isn't much different .. if it like u said, it just SAO + Toriko xD everyone have different taste man :) The big difference here though is that Death March seems kind of "self-aware". SAO had a "Gary Stu" MC, but the story gave the impression that some kind of "tension" still exists and that Kirito could possibly still fail, only to result in this tension to turn out to be extremely fake. Death March doesn't even try to pretend. It's made blatantly obvious early on that MC will most likely never have any difficulties in battle with very, very few exceptions later on. It's also made evident that the battles themselves will not be very important. The MC actually keeps a low-profile instead (but he will NOT let himself - or his campanions - get trampled on). And there is not really a "central plot". Most of the time. It's really slice-of-life. I was not joking when I said that. There is also a massive amount of world-building. The world building is actually bad news in a way, because Web Novels turned Light Novels with high amount of world-building that get an anime adaption usually don't turn out well, unless you get the SAO or LH treatment. Trapped in fantasy world be a slice of life? Did the MC have no reason to go back to his world like MC on overlord? And its all about cuisine / food hunter? I haven't watch Toriko cuz its not make any sense for me .. but if its an 'adventure slice of life' plot at there, it will be completely unoriginal .. (HIGHLIGHT THIS, This is only my opinion for first impressed on Synopsis and some spoilers from u, but sometime can be changed later if i have saw the PVs or First Episode xD although i know to don't judge book by its cover) SAO Design + setting mixed with Toriko Plot and putted some slice-of-life seasoning like Kino's Journey, its definitely not my taste .. okayi'm sorry bro xD as i say before, everyone have their own taste.. ;) |

I have never read or watched Toriko. But Death March is not really a "cooking series", but instead more like... the main character is simply putting tasty food on a higher priority than "defeating the evil local demon lord", i.e. "I have to hurry and finish this trifle matter of beating demon lords so I can make it back in time for the BBQ party". I just cannot put it into words. But the Death March world is quite complex actually with a lot of lore and side stories from the perspectives of either the MC's companions or even from the perspectives of less important side-characters. It's definitly its own world and not a "copy" of anything. The only problem is that this complexity wouldn't work very well for a 12-13 episodes anime, so I really hope we get at least 24-26 episodes instead. |

| Why am I not surprised this will get greenlit lol. Been expecting it for months and it finally came out. |

HalAnime said: I legit can name soo many trapped in another world/game anime. *Breaths in "SAO, Grimgar, DanMachi, Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari, Re:ZERO, Overlord, Gate, Log Horizon, Konasuba, Outbreak Company. *Exhales. *BUT* I can still name more harem ecchi anime series :P Japan clearly knows the Isekai trend is popular. Seems like the future of anime will be 50% Harem Ecchi LN adaptations and 50% Fantasy/Game LN adaptations *sigh Danmachi isnt though ? In gate, they can go in and out , not trapped actually . |
 |
mizukasa said: Isekai this, isekai that. When will this isekai trend going to stop? Hopefully never cuz its one of the best genre which can provide all sorts of things compared to other shizzle. So to all haters go bite yourself cuz all i see is bitching as soon as you see the word isekai and have no clue how the characters and the story is even... |
 |
| Isekai genre has a lot of gems. But also quite a few flops. It's a rather diverse genre. Much better than the "Ecchi pseudo-harem in Japan with beta MC" or "Ecchi pseudo-harem magic highschool" genres. |
|
Darek said: Ehhh I am not sure... I will check it out because I like isekai but... hmmm to those who've read the LN: Is the MC as cringeworthy as Subaru? Is the OP overly dense? The MC is a standard Isekai protagonist: Ridiculously OPed, has a harem and can solve any issue no matter what etc. He's pretty bland if ask me, but if that your thing then go for it. You will be get a lot more of that than unusual Isekai stuff like Re:Zero and and Konosuba. |

HalAnime said: Seems like the future of anime will be 50% Harem Ecchi LN adaptations and 50% Fantasy/Game LN adaptations *sigh That would be quite the turnaround given that less than 7% of all TV anime this year were light novel adaptations at all, and that literally the only upcoming light novel adaptation given the "harem" and "ecchi" genres on MAL is the second season of SaeKano, which itself will only be accurate if the second anime plays up the ecchi as much as the first one did. Oh and DanMachi and Gate don't belong in that list at the start (the latter is not "trapped" as all characters can return at any time and the former isn't anything of the sort*). Even Outbreak Company only sort of counts (it's possible to return but the MC is prevented from doing so). Oh, and you forgot Mondaiji-tachi from the list. *noticed after posting that this had already been pointed out. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Well another reason I should start reading ln. Guess I'll do so after watching the anime. |
| The pinnacle of bad writing and pandering got a anime adaptation? What a shock! |

I have no problems with this kind of story as long as the MC isn't some god-reincarnate to another world. It's stupid, and takes away the fun. Something like Grimgar would be great! |

NeoAnkara said: The final nail in the coffin for swarm of cheat still haven't arrived yet. Once Arifureta make it I'm sure it will mark another era. Oh god. Arifureta will be rated the most edgiest/cancerous Isekai anime adaptation of all time. The WN is absolute trash. |
ARubinsky said: I'm not against Isekai, but they try too hard to be SAO too. There is no need to have console screens and that kind of shit. Maybe I'm old fashioned. I will check the plot later. you meen ./hack sign that came first |

DoctorWasabi said: lol why you guys bitching ? More fantasy anime is absolutely amazing. Kill the sports and Fujoshi trash shows and more of this please Yes right welcome more fantasy. Kill fujoshi fever, I am fine with sports maybe. |
 |
| So basically SAO with a handful of Konosuba/RE:Zero elements. Not interested. |
"I'd take rampant lesbianism over nuclear armageddon or a supervolcano any day." ~nikiforova |
SAO was essentially VRMMORPG-Death-Game. This isn't. It's more like LH, i.e. "transported to another world fantasy with game elements" with lots of world-building and lore, but without the tension. But it's designed not to have tension, so it doesn't give you illusions about the content. |
|
| Wow, finally! I'm glad SAO got a third season. |
  |
| I have no idea what people are talking about. This is nothing like SAO... What are you people, a bunch of dumbasses talking shit? |

| This series will have it rough. There's gonna be tons of comparisons or if it can live up to the stature of Re:Zero or Konosuba. |

Come at me bruh. indeed, but... but... there is demonic.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ looking forward for this adaptation, i hope it will be atleast bearable, but i think i have to keep my expectation low since this kind of adaptation will always be rushed to the point of ruining the story, will watch it otherwise. |

| 期待しているよ、私のサリアだって、嘘ばっかり! でもねアンジュ、あんたがいなくなれば、私の方が強いってわかれば, それができるなら、何もいらない! |
| That synopsis tho lol. I smell OP'ness |
| A bit refreshing since MC got transferred to another compared Mcs that were killed and reincarnated to another world. I read the manga and its a harem. So I'm in. |
| Ohhh the HYPE!!! I can't wait. |
 |
| Can't really expect much from narou webnovels nowadays, can we? |
bodyslam said: Hopefully it's not a "harem but not officially a harem" and a badass girl like Sinon falls for him and even though he doesn't deserve her he still rejects her like ??? dont worry, you will get your hopes crushed lol, assuming anime's cover until certain point. |

| RPG looks like boring to me, the synopsis doesn't got my attention. Still, waiting for this one. |
| When will people grow tired of these mediocre animes? |

Sexa66 said: Everyone's a clairvoyant elitist professional critic now it seems.....What a time to be an anime fanwtf with ppl nowadays, DeathMarch = SAO = Re:Zero ??? DeathMarch is a place with overpowered characters like gods, unkillable demon lords, summoned hero, and overpowered reincarnators live. moreover the grand plot starts at the prologue it's slice of life while the action and world-saving acts as a sub-plot. he got transfered and got stuck in that world? bruhh he can even teleport back to earth to buy some ramen cups, even though it's slice of life the novel itself have a great mystery regarding the mc identity, its starts with his wife from previous life thats way too mysterious, his former wife is a goddess who fell for a human boy--- skip--- and they're married but the human have a short lifespan so in order to make his husband immortal the goddess sacrifices countless souls in order to create an OP body. even though the action is a sub-plot there's an arc that action acts as the main plot for example in the arc 15 when the reincarnated humans declares a war agains gods, this arc way too awesome reincarnators vs gods, and divine power vs science this is a whole new originality, empire full of reincarnated ppl which story has it? well the synopsis plainly bad and i understand why ppl misjudge it. but pls dont compare satou with any other characters because in front of him they all looks plain and worthless... Ainz-sama ? bruhh that inflexible skeleton, and i wonder how Kirito can be compared with Satou ? even Pochi can beat his ass splendidly. about the harem, he never touches them because the girls are around 12-18, he's an adult not some horny pedophile so if he want to release it out he just need to pay prostitutes, his way of thinking so relateable and his action never full of holes. about the game like elements? it's his ability to make the world easier for him, and it's not like a usual transported into different world where the mc transported out of luck, everything has its reason. |
| The formula works thats why they keep making them. Too bad anime aren't targeted toward western fans superior taste. |
