Somehow Worse than season 1. I don't see how people rate this a 7. I want to like it, I really do but the bad writing makes it darn near impossible.
Maybe it's not as bad in the comics/manga but holy shit man. Primarily the bunny lady, but even if she wasn't in the story at all it would simply go from Bad to Mediocre/Boring writing with a lack of depth.
Also a lot of open ends but that's of course because the show is over but the Manga goes way further I imagine.
I won't go into spoilers but literally every single issue with season
...
1, isn't fixed or gets worse.
It's unsatisfying, the writing is stupid at all times. Literally all it's got going for it is fan service and stuff like that.
Even the action is very mediocre. There's a lot of "gaps" unresolved things, sudden jumps. Possible that those aren't there in the manga but still.
The intro at the very least I like better than season 1. But that's one of the only things.
The ending is shit.
Character Development is 0 and the character they want you to think is interesting is stupid and written horribly.
An abomination of writing. I tell you shows like this are gonna be replaced by AI and it will probably be better at some point.
I started this series because it had a pretty decent rating. But I think there's been "trashy isekai" which I've enjoyed more even though they have lower ratings. Sure they are trash too but they are self aware trash and easy and chill to consume or simply comedy. This on the other hand is the opposite. It tries to be serious or have writing but fails in every way.
Aspects like world building aren't any better, shallow, hardly explored. Even things which should have been explored in season 1 episode 4 still don't get explored or addressed really at all in this season either.
Though I guess if you don't care about writing or your brain is just "build different" and you don't even notice or see how horrible it is, it could be enjoyable I guess. But to me the amount of pains are far greater than the little charm it has.

A Decent concept but... a mediocre execution.
It was initially fairly promising considering they didn't seem to just make guns or modern weaponry completely ineffective for no reason like many series like this do. However they did kind of slowly end up moving more and more towards that direction. And basically still ended up under representing the power of modern weaponry. Even though they did pretty okay. Then as for world building and politics it's kind of a mess that doesn't make a lot of sense. I wont go into details you'll just have to read episode reviews in that case but basically I don't think
...
it'd go down like this at all. It'd likely have turned into a global issue, from episode 1 and there'd be some sort of agreement formed between the world's super powers and Japan would likely simply have to put up with it and cooperate. In turn I think it would be much more peaceful at least between earth nations the way they currently are or were at the time of writing this show.
Maybe not in the shadows of course. But Japan being the only ones with access to the gate seems highly unlikely to happen. They simply don't have that kind of weight, if it were merely part of Japanese land it would be one thing, but it'd simply be argued that this is an existential threat to all of humanity. If Japan refuses to cooperate than they'd get even less to choose and a cooperation would be forced upon them. So instead they'd likely work together with a ton of countries from all around the world.
People critique this show for the way they go after resources and such, but I think that's just realistic I have no issue with that, you can talk about right or wrong all you want. But it's simply what would happen. I'm not gonna fault it for realism, if anything I only fault it for it's lack of realism when it comes to politics. Yes the "evil" intentions are pretty accurate but the way they go about it aren't, people naturally choose mutually beneficial solutions and will shake hands with their enemies in order to gain the most with the least risk.
There's countless examples of this, even today.
There's also the lack of them not immediately researching things like magic, even all the way up to the end of the season they'd not addressed and only barely addressed the opposite, which is magic incorporating science. While the opposite would likely have been one of the first major research thing you'd expect them to do when they made first contact.
Aside from world building the show is also rather bland, most characters aren't very memorable and some episodes were quite uneventful. The most memorable character (Rory) is simply a stereotype that's a bit more horny than normal.
Some of the characters from Japan are okay as well, but ironically there's almost 0 character development or even character information/building towards any of the Isekai charachters. Some a literally on screen for just the sake of it and have a few lines here and there but we know nothing about them, they don't do anything they just "exist"
And even the characters that get more attention are still not very deep.
The story was still somewhat okay at the start but it got progressively slower, less interesting and more uneventful.
If I had to separate it into three "parts" I'd say the first part of the season was the best, the middle was simply poorly executed but at least not boring. And the last part of the season was simply boring.
I will watch season 2, I'm giving it a 6 for now because it's open ended and I kind of need to watch season 2 to give it a better judgement so it could become a 5. But it certainly won't go higher than a 6. Because I think a 6 is already quite generous. And I purely would give it that because there are some things I liked, I liked the concept initially and that they had a pretty accurate representation of modern weaponry and didn't make guns useless for no reason. Some people dislike it for that reason, but at that point why are you even watching this show. It's quite literally the set-up. Modern weapons and warfare versus Medieval/Fantasy. Which it executed in a mediocre way. But it could have been a lot worse. So it's fine. It's a watchable show, but wouldn't go as far as to recommend it.

TLDR: Satisfying, Funny and Wholesome
Definitely recommend overall, in some ways especially initially it's very disorienting and the order and pacing are weird, but you also notice production quality and nice little "flairs" though that's also part of it's weakness, I think it's core is very basic/mediocre but it has been "enhanced" with all sort of spices/decorations/flair. But I felt like even it's initially weak core, got better over time so I do want to give it at least an 8 even if at it's core it's maybe a 6 or 7, the "Style" really adds bonus points. On top of that of course I also
...
count things like Comedy and such.
Although the MC isn't specifically relatable to me, he does remind me a lot of my dad. Everything Saitou can do, my dad can do as well and he's very similar when it comes to being "a handyman" in which personally I often feel like a failure, mind you I am a jack of all trades as well, but only when it comes to knowledge my practical skills are abysmal. So although a personal sense of jealously and failure can't escape me, I can still see it and appreciate it, as IMO practical skills like that and just being able to make and fix anything are some of the most useful skills you can have. I just don't have the motor skills for it. But for example when he makes a little backpack, that's exactly the kind of thing my dad would/could do and make it seem effortlessly while I can't possibly imagine myself doing something like that.
Pretty much all the characters are unique, funny and likable apart from maybe a few. But even one of the people that has the least screen time and never interacts with the main cast, is hilarious and one of my favorite characters.
In a way this show is both very predictable and very random. The main story itself is predictable but kind of in a good and satisfying way.
While aside from that completely random shit happens largely for the sake of comedy or keeping it fresh I guess. Which although maybe a bit cheap, is very much effective.
It's wholesome, the last episode was both especially weird and wholesome, I do think they could have done a few things better. But it is a satisfying ending regardless. (It's just the thing that kept getting interrupted didn't actually happen even in the last episode, now presumably if there's ever a second season it will happen in that season, but I would have like for it to happen at the end of this one, they were defenitly teasing it but then didn't do it.)
I actually expected this show to be relatively "safe" and not have a bunch of fan service, which tbf it doesn't. But it can be very random and unhinged with it's "fan service/sexual stuff" which you generally don't expect from the vibes.
Btw don't worry guys 15cm is above average.
Also the outro is pretty good and again I like the "style/decoration" for example the clay stuff is really just once again one of those little bonus things that in the end make this from a 7 into an 8 if you ask me.

It's Average but enjoyable, it lacks anything to truly make it stand out but it's story is decent enough and I do appreciate the satisfying way of writing. It never endlessly pushes things forward but often quickly resolved them and characters aren't kept in the dark for ages.
Whenever someone new appears who you as a viewer would probably want the MC to fight that likely happens immediately even in the same episode most of the time. There's a few weird or vague things though here and there but nothing too jarring.
The choreography could use some serious work. Sometimes it's okay but other times it's down
...
right horrific.
Music is fine, nothing special but not terrible.
The animation is pretty good. Voice Acting is also good.
It's fairly funny overall, the intro is kind of bait. Some characters are implied to have more relevance but end up barely having any relevance.
The only real possible "villain" is kind of cool though and they did leave that pretty open-ended.
Power of characters is pretty consistent.
The characters, although I don't hate them at all, they do feel a bit bland and predictable.
Like it doesn't really get your heart pumping or your emotions going. Even the finale which gets closest, feels forced and predictable.
I'm not sure I'd actually consider this show much of a Slow Life though, like sure the MC"s life is like that for the most part but that's not the parts we are shown.
Not sure what else to say tbh, funny at times, enjoyable and chill but yes mediocre.

I might have only watched like 3 chinese animated shows but all of them have been straight bangers when it comes to comedy.
Like this isn't as good as The Daily Life of The Immortal King. But there's something about these show's particular brand of humor that I really like.
It also doesn't have any heavy fan service which some might think is bad but I think that's a good thing. The writing itself is decent when it comes to comedy and it was pretty good if you just look at the first like 12 episodes. But the "extra" ones just felt slow and all over the
...
place when it came to pacing and writing.
The music absolutely slapped by the way, the voice actors were good enough, though it's a comedy so it's not like the bar is that high. The emotional moments were decent but the story was a bit convoluted, but eventually you do kind of get it.
It has good characters but I'd say there's only a few characters that are actually fleshed out well. The MC is fine, and I like Cheng and
Liu. Xiaolan and Su are a bit underdeveloped in charachter and the doggo was decent first but a bit too weird later.
The Antagonist was just uninteresting. The "OP Future Rival" though seemed cool and interesting, the lightning guy was decent as well but they just kind of threw him away after that defenitly gonna be a permanent side character it feels like.
So funny overall, they kind of killed their own momentum at the end there. It's a funny watch though. So I don't regret watching it.

Here's more or less an old review I posted at time of watching this.
It's pretty underwhelming. There's not significant spoilers only a mention of which themes are explored and how they could have done it better.
5/10 It can be funny but that's about it.
Any seriousness is quickly ruined for me by simply bad writing.
The weird PS2 graphics 3D animations are kinda weird.
It's obviously not the worst show ever but Average 5/10 or at best 6/10 seems justified.
Not sure how the hell this has an 8.54/10 over here. Even 7/10 MAL seems high.
Bonus points for some of the music and soundtracks I guess those were pretty
...
neat.
The MC himself is also fun enough so there's that without that I'd have not even come back to the show after leaving for a while due to simply bad writing being painful.
The elf girl is also fine, it's really just the story, plot points, and world building that are honestly just bad and stereotypical at best. It reinforces a ton of the worst and unjustified tropes, has a poor understanding of slavery of practically any kind and is generally full of holes and things that don't make a lot of sense if you think about it for more than 2 seconds. It's partially not it's fault that the same "bad writing" being repeated in other shows again and again just makes it leave a worse taste every time I mean "Shield Hero" commits a lot of the same "sins" but that simply cancelled it out with other writing that actually did have some weight and quality to it. This show just doesn't. It's writing is "Okay" at best and simply "Bad" at it's worst. If you oversimplify and unrealistically present something like slavery again and again and again at some point it just becomes silly. There's a clear lack of motivation, cause and effect and general logic.
And it even had the gall to compare such an inaccurate representation to "the age of exploration" or whatever.
Now if he'd said that after seeing Elves capture and sell other Elves to humans, in a world where these humans are the only species that actually ended slavery but because they are Elves they use it as a good/bad excuse to buy them anyway and break the rules cuz "they're not human"
Now that would be a somewhat valid comparison.
Or maybe if there was a race they'd never been in contact with and they infected them and a ton of them died and they also treated them badly, and there was colonization and many crimes that go with it like r-word even that would be a valid comparison.
Although both of these comparisons would still benefit from a larger and more varied world, like how in war among most cultures and peoples in general "r-word" and slavery were the standard not the exception.
You could also switch the roles however you want and heck I encourage them to do so.
If you want to create a race of orc's that's actually the most civilized and closest to getting rid of things like slavery. Go ahead that'd be amazing though you'd have to also account for the problems they would face like elevating themselves above other races because they are civilized, and don't have slavery nor r-word their enemies, but also like how some orcs in particular those looking for money would ultimately find a way to somehow have r-word and slavery anyway.
And then if you have even more balls you'd also show a completely different socially functioning way of slavery and how all the people of a certain race including the slaves will defend that system when another group or race or the MC is trying to impose that they should end slavery.
Slavery plots don't [b]have to[/b] be bad. But you're making them bad by not even thinking about them or being creative whatsoever.
I mean look at bloody One Piece, they got it right, the bad/worst kind of slavery isn't even really about race although it might be used as an additional excuse, it's mostly about Class. And even One Piece really only captures one kind of slavery.
I'm going on a tangent that was obviously far from the only thing the show lacked but it was just an example.

Bland, Boring and Disappointing. It can be funny sometimes but pretty much nothing really happens the whole show. And from what I heard it doesn't really do it's source material much justice. It's not completely terrible but it's very mediocre. The animation and pacing are bad in particular but there's also some plot holes or holes in the characters and world building that don't make a ton of sense.
Clearly copying parts of other shows like Mukoshu is one thing but this is just poorly executed.
Heck even the whole "the magic academy will come later I will become and adventurer first is copying the same
...
story structure. Except without the whole tragic event.
I'm sure that if made by a more capable team it could be just as good as Mukoshu at least from what I heard people say about the LN/Manwha/Webcomic and better in the fact that it's less weird. But as far as the story telling goes it's done poorly in this anime and the lack of action and animation in general just leaves it with very little.

Impressively Bad Writing, inconsistent as all hell, I guess I gotta do this spoiler free although I dislike doing that.
It's impressive that a story that's just a copy paste of the same story that's been told a 100 times already, that you still managed to mess it up. It's like not even being able to make the simplest dish without ruining it.
The power levels/abilities are inconsistent and they forget they can do things all the time.
They never really get back to his "back story/village" it's constantly mentioned in his head but it's never a plot point. Not even in the final episodes which it seemed
...
to build up towards but it just dropped the ball completely on that.
The characters aren't even that terrible but it's just literally everything else, it's full of holes. Oh well and of course the thing I mentioned right away is that the implication of him "taming" them is lowkey kind of sus and messed up. Like the start defenitly sounds more like a villain origin story. I'd defenitly say the show got worse the longer it went on. Tania and Runa were the only characters that seemed slightly better/funnier than the rest. (though I did end up being mad at Tania/the writer for again simply forgetting completely she can certain things, which she only uses like once throughout the whole show.) If you're gonna make characters unreasonably OP, COMMIT, you can't just pull back after one episode and be like "whoops we went too far let's never repeat that ever again" and then pretend the villians are somehow still supposed to be a threat.

The only thing this show excels at is being horny.
Most characters are flatter than Yue's chest, especially the side characters.
I came here in the naive hope that maybe they'd take it a step up from season 2 and actually get some character development going for the side characters. But nope this whole season is 100% completely predictable and happens exactly how you think it would happen all characters stay essentially the same Especially Koki which is their biggest fumble when it comes to writing.
Imagine writing such an inherently flawed and hateable character but turning away every single opportunity to try and change or improve him
...
the moment with Eri was probably the biggest one but in this season again there were again a few major easy opportunities and the writing is just absolutely soulless and unrealistic. If the character is a male then by definition the writing is non existent, and even for the MC it's still not even that good. This show was maybe like a 7 back in episode 1 of season 1 but it's gone steadily down overtime and over these seasons and episode. Actually I'd say it pretty much stagnated already halfway season 1, and stagnation is the same as getting worse.
Eri is uninteresting, boring and an ass villain as well. Should have died a whole season ago and yet they are still keep trumping her up.
At least we didn't have to deal with actual children being in sexual situations this season but somehow it's still not any better than season 2 and season 2 was already pretty awful.
I already quickly started to dislike this show for even a part of season 1 but it's just become worse and worse. Not worth a season 4 but at this point nothing surprises me if they make one.. any sane person can already write down exactly what will happen in season 4 and the worst part is that you know it's going to be true because this show never, ever does something unexpected or any major form of character development. There's always that 1% chance but I've been disappointed time and time again watching them fumble every single opportunity to have better character writing.
The story and world building isn't really any better but I can pass that off as normal or mediocre if the characters had been good.
But they are not they are just bland even the ones they do give attention range from a 6~7/10 when it comes to writing.
With probably the bunny being the least boring SOMEHOW even though she has such a simple character already, somehow that simplicity makes it the only character that feel half decent.
I get that it's a brainless isekai Harem anime but that doesn't excuse it being this bad. They literally just ignore 90% of the classmates and the ones that they don't ignore and give screen time they somehow still mostly ignore.
Every resolution and conclusion is unsatisfying and bad. Koki is such a punching bag for the writer that it practically makes you nauseous, bro got SA'd had a classmate killed in front of him and by the person that harassed him and still there's no change in his character, the sole reason for his existence is so the writer can kick him down. And the only other male present who's emptier than a sheet of paper (I still don't get why they didn't just take the assassin guy along even he was more interesting) and yet somehow watching him is less frustrating because at least he also doesn't really get any attention and screen time so at least the writer isn't even pretending with that one. I hope to all that is Holy that writer at least realized the irony of one of his few moments being about "I'm nothing but a side character" because goddamn you're just calling your own writing out at that point. Bro barely qualifies as that he's basically a background character. But at least it's seems somewhat self aware. Koki's writing is just beyond disgustingly bad. "We have Mitsurugi Kyouya at home" headass, bro is a Parody of a Parody to the point where it's Post Ironic garbage. The only reason this show can possibly be rated a 7 on average is HORNY. Because that's literally all it's got even the humor which it kind of had at some points in the beginning of season 1 is 90% misses and just feels weird. 4/10 Because I've seen worse, but I haven't seen many things that are worse.

It's very inconsistent quality and start of extremely bad. But it has some episodes here and there worth of calling a "6/10" but at it's worst it's like "2/10" so on average a 4/10 seemed fair.
First I'll say the positive things:
-The Intro kind of slaps
-Lena is a W from the start, and kind of stays that way through the series.
-Occasionally there's good writing a like... hints of actual character depth mostly in episodes which include Lena be it a coincidence or not.
-There's decent character design
-The world building is fairly okay as well.
Alright on to all of the problems:
-Lazy (missed opportunity, you could have made it
...
about the MC having to find a creative way to use his seemingly useless skill, instead he never actually uses it again apart from very early on and like 1 other time. Halfway through episode one they already ruined the premise of their own story. But worst of all they don't even execute the lazy solution properly and correctly as they don't have him simply become OP even though there's 0 reason he shouldn't be able to.
I get into detail on my reviews on each episodes specifically but essentially another one of the biggest issues is logical flaws.
Things that quite simply don't make any sense, people having authority they shouldn't, but also just things that make no sense happen all the time.
I don't want to mark my comment as a spoiler but from here on out I'll discuss slightly more detailed things and criticism so if you want to go in completely blind I would recommend you stop reading here.
-You gained the power to solve food shortages and world hunger, obviously there's gonna be a catch but even if there wasn't it defenitly seems like an easy skill just get rich off. Meanwhile he's out here selling weird singular grapes. Like tf, that's not how grapes work. They aren't necessarily a bad choice as they are seen as expensive and wealthy in most ages throughout history but that's not how you grow and harvest them.
-Of course he bloody adopted a child, sure why not.
-Creativity is out of the window lol "eats another fruit and instantly acquires "sword god" undoing the whole plot of the bloody show" There's a 100 different directions you could have taken his skill and plenty of them would have been interesting but "nope."
Also FYI if it's just legal to produce skill fruits like that why did they have to wait for like some silly ceremony thing like... what.
WDYM "two skills" my man are you actually like mentally challenged, the reason I was pissed was because of this silly writing, you can just eat the whole crate of skill fruits and become a demi-god, that's why I was annoyed at the dumb writing. (Nvm the fact that the child used multiple fruits in the food so she should actually be dead but okay)
It's also so silly anyway because being immune to the poison shouldn't make the skill fruit work. That'd mean every single person with some form of poison immunity skill would just be able to eat multiple fruits. Heck just make an antidote for the poison, even if it's cyanide that'd still be somewhat possible I'm sure there's some skill who can do that or even straight up just "heal" the poison. I'm starting to be convinced this was written by AI. B series was way too generous this is like a D series.
-at some point they try to convince you fire doesn't conduct electricity.
