Story & Character 7.5/10
There's pretty much no plot. The guy just goes around the world looking to find new stuff in this world. BUT, the characters and their interaction are so good. Especially, the MC and the Fenrir have pretty much perfect chemistry.
Animation 8.5/10
Anything scene involving food is like an instant 10/10. MAPPA cooked all the food irl and then rotoscoped it perfectly into the anime aesthetic. And talking about aesthetics, FINALLY, isekai with its own art style. It's so warm and cozy. Just perfect.
Sound 7/10
Pretty basic relaxing track for each scene which enhances the experience. The OPENING though was an absolute jam.
Overall 8/10
I love the fact that this show is being created by a bunch of newbies/interns at MAPPA, but since the direction has such a strong foundation, it's just so satisfying when a show was made efficiently and beautifully.
