Despite what some people may think of the anime or it being a copy and paste cliche from previous anime, there's always a certain comfort in cliches and tropes we are used to, especially when they are executed well and in a fun way.

Wise man's grandchild, although it being another isekai subgenre, with the main character dying in Japan and being reborn in a new world with strong powers, does have an interesting take on using his past experience and applying it to this new world to make his magic extra strong through his knowledge about science and technology.

There's a more realistic mechanism to use ... the magic in this fantasy based anime. Which makes it a little more appealing than other anime like it where the characters just become overpowered out of nowhere.

Then we are introduced with an array of different characters and new friendships, to make the anime appear to be something out of a shounen anime/manga, with the power of friendships and bond forming. This formula has been proven to work over and over again since the early days of anime and cartoons. WmG makes the bonding of the characters work well with one another and it's rather quite charming, having the appeal that we wish to have friends just like them.

Then there's the waifu material, green hair and eyes and big breasted, but very innocent and sweet. She is the healer of this group and is quite cute, to be the dream girl within most guy's fantasy.

While the story is a bit lacking in this season and the music can be much better, the charms of the character bondings and their team work to become better magicians and working together, coupled with the enjoyment of the overall season while watching these characters, makes up for what it lacks and allows the cliches to be forgivable.

Try not to compare it too much from what you might have watched before, and you may allow this one to grow on you with its cast of characters.
