I wonder how he keeps calm after being sent to another world and seeing that everyone is incompetent
And suddenly the guy knows how to run a whole fucking country ?!?!?!?

Getting summoned from the library remains me of Sheild Hero.

Selling off a Hero you summon is an interesting way to pay off your debt. Kazuya did everything to prevent that at the cost of becoming the new King. It will be fun to see how this goes since it different from your typical Isekai where the hero gets summoned to defeat the Demon Lord.

Another isekai, even now with a boring theme.

And they expect me to believe that this random 18 years old MC is an expert in finance and politics?

RedChrome said:
I knew this show was shit when I saw the PV but my God it's really SHIT !!! Story is bullshit and the characters are boring and stupid(for the Isekai people). Why do they keep making Isekai garbage ???

The way they changing the nation by using economics and management reform reminded me somewhat of Maoyuu Maou Yuusha. The MC, Liscia Elfrieden, also looks like Sento Isuzu as well. lol

WTF with that lame King??? No wonder why this nation stuck and got many problems like that.
The concept of using economic development instead of military forces to strengthen the nation is very interesting.

He doesn't have to , it's pretty obvious that most of the people in that world are dumber than him

DirectorK said:
I can't believe how many people are writing this anime off because they find hard to believe that an 18 year old can run a kingdom better than a king. Guys, Kazuya did mentioned that he planned to go into civil service so obviously he spent a great deal of time studying economics and social reform. Yeah, a scene explaining that would have been nice but it wasn't necessary because it's not that far fetched. Believe it or not they are some students who take education very seriously because they want to do something in their lives instead of just hanging around doing nothing and getting by. On top of that, Kazuya comes from a fully advanced civilization and not a Medieval/Renaissance one. He has more knowledge than anyone else in that world.

And for those of you who are saying that king is lame, well... yeah. He is, and he knows it too. Which is why he gave control of the kingdom over to Kazuya because he quickly realized that he was better suited for it despite he is because again Kazuya's knowledge far exceeds his own. If you look through the history of monarchies having weak kings was not unusual. If fact, it was quite common. Rulers were often placed there by others so they could be controlled.

I give the King credit for admitting that he was ill suited for the throne instead of stubbornly denying it so he could stay in power. He strikes me as the kind of guy who didn't want the throne in the first place. Yeah, it was a dick move to place it all on Kazuya's shoulder but it was either that or let his kingdom fall apart.

If you still think this isekai is stupid because of its concept, here some advice. Go watch High School Prodigies and then come back and try saying that again. TRUST ME. There's a good chance you'll take back everything yous said about this anime. This is far more believable than that anime. Seriously, if the whole nuclear reactor thing doesn't get you then the scene with the samurai girl who not only has the ability to run really fast but can also carry an already ignited cruise missile will.

RedChrome said:


High school prodigies is without a doubt more garbage than this one

But you know I can't help myself feeling like they rushed this whole thing just to make the MC look like a good. Like for example the King is not lame, he is an idiot(and incompetent) but he is so stupid that he just gave up the throne to someone he barely knows !!? And even if he doesn't want it and willingly gave it up, what about the advisor or the people, how come they didn't protest about this or do they have an opinion about this ?? I mean The Princess did. Funny even though the word 'Realist' is in the work title they begin with an unrealistic start

This why I struggle to take a liking with this kind of Isekai series, instead of focusing on the story they chose to disregard it and focus on showing us the MC is ridiculously smart (and lucky). Now I'm not impressed with the 1st ep but it is too early for me make a judgement. Maybe or should I say hopefully it will get better later

DirectorK said:

Not to sound rude but did you even watch the episode? The first scene, along with the scene of them explaining the situation to Kazuya, made it clear that they exhausted all other options and that summoning the hero was the last resort since no one had a better idea.

Have you ever been in a leadership position before? I have and I can tell you from experience that it's not as easy as it looks. When you're a leader you are under more pressure than anyone else because everyone, and I mean everyone, is depending on you to make the big decisions and that pressure can really get to you. Either you have the ability to do it or you don't. With that in mind if the King wasn't up to the task what makes you think his advisors could do any better? In all seriousness the kingdom is actually very lucky that they summoned someone like Kazuya to their world and not self centered jerk who would have drove the kingdom into ruin because of greed, lust, and power.

The King didn't hand his kingdom over right out of the blue. He and his advisors spent three whole days with Kazuya before he made that announcement. Of course his advisors would be shocked but once they thought it over they would have realized it was actually the best decision he ever made as King. Naturally his daughter would have protested about it but once she saw for herself how intelligent Kazuya was she no longer cared because what he was doing, despite being controversial, was for the good of the kingdom. And what were the common people going to do? Revolt? As far as I can tell the King wasn't that popular anyway so why should they even protest the sudden change of power? Once Kazuya's reforms go into effect no one's going to be complaining.

I honestly don't understand what you're so worked up about. You're complaining about the MC who for once is actually an intelligent person instead of some dumb, perverted loser who can't stand up for himself. Like, what were you expecting this isekai to be? Another dumb hero summoned another world to defeat the evil demon lord or empire while creating a harem in the process and having a bunch of stupid fanservice? At least give this one some credit for trying to do something different for once instead of sticking to the same routine.

RedChrome said:
I did watched it and it was bullshit, too bullshit for me to swallow, and let me say the MC is smart it's because they are all unrealistically stupid just to glorify the MC.

And leadership, what leadership ??What did he actually do ?? Selling off the country's National treasure to pay off some the debt, any idiot could have done that. Sure he is an "educated" person I assume and like you said being a leader it's a tough job but they don't actually know if he is qualified for it. So giving him that responsibility is very unrealistic to me, it would've make more sense if he started with something small just to show he can do and then he become King

I don't wanna argue with you okay and don't take this the wrong way, I don't think this show is unique just because the MC this time is smart and not overpower like many other Isekai garbage (where they like to glorify the MC so much like he is God and the whole turn into a train wreck like high school prodigies) but it frustrates me to see them keep messing up in telling the story cause if they have done it better I probably wouldn't have been so upset about it

DirectorK said:

Well then, that's your problem not mine. I was able to understand everything just fine because I actually used my brain instead of complaining. Did you not read the first paragraph of my original post? Kaguya comes from a very different and more highly advanced world than theirs because education is a standard and not a privilege. If you still can't understand that then I don't know what to say. The King and his advisors didn't to where they are by doing nothing and they are not stupid for the sake of glorifying the MC. That's a really childish way to look at it.


What did you expect him to do? Go out and waste money by traveling around the kingdom and making fancy speeches to prove that he was smarter then everyone else? If he had done that no one would have taken him seriously. Again, the King and his advisors spent three whole days with him. That's more than enough time for them to realize that Kazuya knew what he was talking about and he proved that when he explained everything he was doing to the princess. If you had actually paid attention to what he was saying then you would have understood it. How do you think sport players become team captains? Or students who become President of Student Councils? They did it through their actions and their knowledge, not with words.

Let me make very simple for you to understand. The kingdom is dire straits and everyone knows it. They need to do something drastic in order to keep from going under and if handing control of the kingdom to a stranger, who's proven to be far more intelligent than they are, and selling their national treasure is the only way to do it then so be it. It's either that or let themselves be conquered by another nation after they collapse.


So let me see if understand this correctly. You're upset with this anime because it's not realistic enough according to you even though both I and the anime explained things in a way that a child could understand. This anime isn't rushed like you and others have been claiming. Simply put, you want everything to be explained to you through overly long exposition scenes. While we did have one centered on Kaguya explaining his plans to the princess they kept it straightforward, simple, and easy to understand. I got through this opening episode just fine while you didn't simply because you didn't take the time to understand what was being said and done.

Let me give you some advice. If you're going to reply to posts like mine expect that person to reply with a counter argument. More importantly, however, don't start arguments that you can't win or make statements that you can't support. It will only end up embarrassing you.
