I loved the first half of the first episode. For a couple of minutes it felt as if I'm in for a treat - a slightly mysterious wise slice of life anime in a magical world, different from the usual isekai tropes. There was a feeling that something utterly amazing is about to happen, perhaps on miyazaki level.
Then they added one more character, and everything instantly fell apart.
The source material this anime is based on is quite weak, and while initial episode gave impression that they might be able to turn it into somethin amazing, that didn't happen.
The main weakness of this title is characters, as they're one-dimensional, stereotypical and are not incredibly interesting. Because majority of content is based around character interations, poor characterization greatly reduces enjoyability of the title. Basically, imagine someone trying to create non non biyori or koboyashi san chi no maid dragon, and then failing to produce great characters for it. That's the feeling I'm getting from this title.
Compared to characters, music is decent, art is actually nice and pleasant to look at and above average.
But the character personalities absolutely kill it.
4/10 story, 6/10 art, 6/10 sound, 3/10 characters, 4/10 enjoyment, 4/10 overall.
The atmosphere of the title is calm and peaceful, and you could watch it to kill some time, but due to character quality it isn't that great.
