An official website opened for a TV anime adaptation of Mine and Kabocha's Nidome no Jinsei wo Isekai de ([New Life+] Young Again in Another World) light novel series on Tuesday. The anime is scheduled to air in October 2018.

Synopsis
When death tapped Renya Kunugi on the shoulder, he smiled and went willingly. After enjoying a nice, long life of 94 years, he was looking forward to shutting his eyes for the last time. He was, therefore, understandably upset when he woke up again in an empty space, devoid of memories, with a young girl in a tunic rambling on and on about how she's God. So, he did what any reasonable person would have done under those circumstances: he sent the girl flying with a kick to the face. It turned out that the girl was indeed God, and she was in a pinch. She urgently needed someone to do some interdimensional Resource smuggling, and Renya fit the bill.

His mission: cross the boundary into another world, then chill for a few decades. God would handle the rest. To sweeten the deal, she offered him an eighteen-year-old body and a whole laundry list of ludicrously powerful skills, yet he remained hesitant. Then, she mentioned the food—an exotic world comes with exotic delicacies—and this sealed the deal. The next thing he knew, he was standing in a foreign land, younger, stronger, and more clueless than ever. Will he survive this world? And more importantly, will the world survive him?

How about Kenja no Mago ?

Non-harem, gender balanced cast, multiple side couples, only one waifu for the protagonist.....

I can't wait for Kenja no Mago anime to come out..... Hopefully it will not be Diomedia ( The horror !! ) making the anime.
I am someone that would like to watch a Harem Anime with 2 male leads that each gets their own harem company of girls from the main cast. For example, 1st male lead gets a company of 4 girls and 2nd male lead gets 2-3 girls etc.

By the way, I read from Famitsu Bunko's Twitter page that the Isekai genre Kenja no Mago series ( including all the LN and Manga volumes ) have sold 1.2 million copies by now.

Quite impressive, since Mago is a non-harem Light Novel series from Narou, with a gender balanced cast, and where the MC's close male friend has Top 3 characters screentime ( other than the MC and single heroine ) and Main Cast level treatment in it. In comparison, the recent volume 15 of the harem series Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut released just a week ago has a wrapper on the cover saying the series has sold 1.1 million copies, and this is despite having a major headstart over Mago since the serialization of Saijaku Muhai started around August 2013 which is nearly 2 years before the serialization of the LN and Manga of Kenja no Mago started in July 2015. Saijaku also already had an Anime for added publicity while Mago has yet to start Anime airing, so the sales comparison is quite intriguing......

Well, I can understand the reason why it isn't able to sell much like other heavy hitters from Narou like Re:Zero and KonoSuba, since I've watched the anime of Saijaku Muhai, and boy is it boring for me. The MC Lux is just too girly, whiney, lame and boring in Saijaku Muhai, and there's just too much girls with template personalities, that I find Rokudenashi Majutsu more entertaining to watch, despite focusing only on 2 girls compared to the 5 or 6 in Saijaku Muhai.

Well, there's one upside to bland, rehashed isekai series - you just need couple of minutes to see if it sucks too much to watch. No 3 episodes rules or crap like that.

I wasn't expecting this but I'm realy glad, the light novel is actually great and a nice departure from the usual isekai tropes.

The MC being a former 94-yo, he's quite mature and not dense, and since he lost his memories from his former life, the only thing that he has as an advantage are his motor skills (and a few cheats he gets from god but he doesn't fully realize how broken they are until later on). Also, he was a war veteran, expert swordsman and apparently a blacksmith in his former life (which makes for a really funny scene when the goddess realizes he was quite OP even before his reincarnation). So he's quite a battle junkie and the battles are really gruesome and gorey, this might get booted to censoring hell. The female characters don't beat around the bush and feel like actual people instead of being tropey cardboard cutouts, I won't talk much about them as there's quite a gap between their first appearances and actual personalities, the twist at the end of volume 1 was what made me fall in love with this series so I don't want to ruin this for anyone. As a side note, three volumes in there's no tsundere character.

Well, the staff looks decent so at least it's not going to be a low-budget anime like Hyakuren Haou or Smartphone.

In Fall we are going to have a lot of LN adaptations, currently we have:

- SAO
- Index
- Goblin Slayer
- Ore ga Suki nano wa Imouto dakedo Imouto ja Nai
- Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken
- Seishun Buta Yarou
- Ulysses
- Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de

And it's likely that we also get Kenja no Mago, Nariagari, Isekai Cheat Magician or Zoku Owarimonogatari.

Good to see that after the crappy 2016 and 2017 seasons, finally we are going to have a great Fall season this year.

Now I'm definitely sure HJ Bunko made J-novel pick this up to translate since it's getting an anime adaptation so it can get some attention in the English community. Now everytime they get a new series to translate it's almost certain it will have an anime down the line. Got to pay attention on any new stuff they do.

This was on my plan to read list so time to get started on it.

At this point my opinions on the complaints for Isekai anime are so much that honestly its a bit too much.

But yeah. If nobody likes it, then don't watch it. You aren't bound or forced to give it a watch if you legitimately don't want to.

With that said, the staff seems... okay I suppose. Not bad, but aside from few notes I don't think it's that great. But better than nothing I suppose.
