Another fantasy/adventure series with some slice-of-life elements. Was watching it worthwhile? Undoubtedly, the series as a whole is pretty good.

The first few episodes of the show were somewhat slow-paced, focusing on Gideon's attempts to lead a quiet life after being expelled from the Heroes Party by opening an apothecary and moving to a small town. One of the series' positive aspects was the Blessings concept, which gave the show a little more depth as it began to explore topics like fate, beliefs, etc. Blessings are seen in this world as God's chosen route that a person cannot deviate from and must follow for the rest of his life, these themes were only briefly discussed, but they can nevertheless teach viewers one or two valuable lessons.

The show also has a fair amount of sugar because Rit and Red began to live together and manage the apothecary together, notwithstanding their speedy courtship was out of this world. Rit and Red are the primary focus of the story throughout the majority of it, and while there are little disputes in the town occasionally, the more significant stuff happens in the final few episodes.

Although the way it ended wasn't the best, it wasn't all that horrible either. Overall, it isn't really memorable enough to stick in viewers' minds for a long time. In particular, the final episode's easy release of Ruti by Red after the Sacred Avenger reactivated her Hero Blessing could have been made better by a more competitive battle between Red and Ruti, who are siblings.

Regarding animation and character designs, it is what you would expect from a fantasy program: the colors are vibrant; the monsters look like the monsters from any other programs, which is not particularly eye-catching; the weapons, armor, and buildings are also fairly standard, with the exception of the Elven Ruins, which resemble something out of a space movie.
