 https://myanimelist.net/anime/59644/ Plot Summary Ruphas Mafahl, the black-winged overlord and leader of the Twelves Stars of Heaven, has been vanquished. A man wakes up in the body of the Exgate game character Ruphas, two hundred years after her defeat at the hands of the seven heroes. The game world of Exgate he knew is no longer ruled by humans—and it is no longer just a game. Exgate is a world of its own where the characters think, feel, and live just like he does. Ruphas journeys through Exgate, looking for the long-disbanded Twelve Stars of Heaven. Ruphas is without country, army, or allies. A question remains: what is the real reason an ordinary man was reincarnated into Exgate as Ruphas? Other Information Type: TV Episodes: Unknown Status: Not yet aired Aired: Oct 4, 2025 to ?

| Episode 1 And here, we have yet another isekai featuring another MC who is too OP for his own good. This time, it comes in the form of a gamer who made his character Lufas so overwhelmingly strong that the game admins issued a quest to have others band together to defeat Lufas, which they did. However, it doesn't end there as the goddess from the game world has a special request, and the gamer gets isekaied into the world of the game as Lufas, and in a time long after she was defeated. And thus, Lufas is back, and sees just how much the world has changed. But her insane game stats are still maxed out like in the game as she makes quick work against that army of orcs that they were all slaughtered before they knew what hit them. So now, she starts a new game with the aim to reunite the Twelve Stars of Heaven that has long since disbanded, and her only ally is Dina, an NPC from the game who has developed a personality. So here's yet another isekai with the MC being an OP freak and I'm hoping for a story that at least finds a way to set itself apart from other such shows, but I don't get that from what I see so far, but I'm hoping for something entertaining to come out of this. |
| Well, that turned surprisingly gorey all of a sudden. |
| It has my attention. The animation, music and characters all seem good so far. Of course, it's aggressively unoriginal, so it has some work to do to get high on my list. |
| This is one I read a few years ago, been looking forward to it getting animated. For the most part it's pretty familiar plot wise. There is a neat twist but I doubt they will get there in 1 season. They did hint at it though. For now it's going to be Collect the minions and find other players, while Aura farming to the max. |
| Well that was fun. |
| Cursive is the future. - Nate Bargatze |
| Seems fun...hope the guy playing a woman game character doesn't go the way of She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man |
| Huh. This one wasn't even on my radar. Typical OP isekai that so far feels like a cross between Overlord and Bureaucrat to Villainess with a bit of the Berserk / Claymore brutality sprinkled in. That it quickly got past the "ermagawd I'm a dude in a chick body" trope was a huge point in its favour. I was worried Dina might become annoying, but they walked that fine line pretty well. Tentatively hopeful it'll make it through the 3-Episode Rule. |
| The tomatoes are coming! Arm the dicer! Prepare the olive oil! |
| I've watched the first episode three times. Pretty confident that's strongly due to Ami Koshimizu. It's rare for an MC female character to have a voice that actually sounds like a commanding, mature woman and she's doing it to perfection. |

| Gotta wonder how the Wizard in charge of the summoning is feeling. "So the plan was use this ritual to summon a Hero to defeat the demon lord right?" "Yes Sire" "Ok I just wanted to be sure....Instead you unsealed the evil conqueror from 200 years ago who once ruled the world" ".......Yes Sire....but it's ok she said she's feel depressed about it and isn't going to do anything...." "and then she just flew off" "....yes Sire" "and you want to try this again" "Yes Sire I'm sure it'll work properly next time" |
| Episode 2 And Lufas goes looking for answers as to what became of the world after her defeat, taking on the alias Sfalu (which is what you get when you say her name backwards in Japanese). They end up in Svel, a city of water, and they head to the library to learn about the place. Despite what she might have expected, the heroes weren't exactly taking the moral high ground, and Lufas isn't as infamous as she was expecting. So with that, it's onto finding the first of the Stars, Aries. |
| I completely memory holed episode 1 of this. I had to go back and remind myself what this show was even about. |
| Going to a library to learn about the world rather than stumble around blindly? What logical madness is this!? Getting the distinct feeling there is more to Dina that just being a background NPC. |

Meh, gentlemen orcs? OK. Not much new here. OP but have to sneak around pretending to be a nobody. I still don't get why he/she has to earn money etc. she can literally create whatever she wants from scratch. How about just take whatever you want too? Just an excuse to roam around and show off the world I guess. Ehh whatever probably drop this.

| (1st episode) I kinda wish this wasn't a Video Game Isekai and instead was just straight up fantasy-- the first scene actually piqued my interest. But at least it's been very honest about being cliche, like immediately teasing some other isekai players which should be quite obvious, the OP-ness of the MC, and barely being bothered about getting Isekaid. The entire episode is basically a heavy info dump and exposition though, which was greatly irritating. But at least they quickly got those out of the way now... (I hope)? The aesthetics are definitely good, and seems like the characters would have their charm. That's all I'll cling on for now. If the protag gets too talkative with info dumping and inner monologues though, I'm better off dropping this than hate watch. If it can entertain me enough that I end up forgetting the Isekai aspect of it, I'd greatly appreciate this. |

It was based on a modern MMO right? Orcs are all good-guys now :P
| @marklebid I don't know about modern. World of Warcraft is old enough to drink. |
| Episode 3 And with that, the first of the 12 stars has joined the party, and while Aries has grown up to be a big, bad sheep, his power is noting compared to what Lufas can do. Aries makes quick work of Gantz and his army, this coming 200 years of training. But then Lufas came onto the battlefield and showed him who's boss. So with that, Aries has joined, taking on a human form as a femboy. Seeing that Aries is so strong he could fight an army by himself that when the 12 stars are finally gathered, nothing's gonna stop them from ruling the world with an iron fist. |
| Giant sheep fight? Giant sheep fight. |
| "The age of the femboy." XD The battle with Aries was amazing. I absolutely love Lufas' insane expressions when she gets fired up. |
| The tomatoes are coming! Arm the dicer! Prepare the olive oil! |
| So how is this so far? It looked interesting, but I wasn't sure if it would be worth the time. |
