This is the 200th anime I've watched since I made my account here, so I decided to write a short review to celebrate this "distinguished" moment. [TLDR: I could have choosen a better one]
You may ask why it is recommended despite I rated it for a measly 4? The thing is, this show has some merits despite the abysmal execution. Such merits which is rare in the isekai genre. You may wonder, what merit can a crappy generic isekai have?
Simple, a finished story. That alone is commendable.
Well, this is the sad reality of the isekai genre. It counts almost a miracle if we ever see the end of an adventure.
Other than that the only aspect of the show worth mentioning are the characters. Don't expect much, but the MC is acceptable. Nothing spectacular, but he is not a whimpy looser, which is always a win in my book. The sidekicks are forgettable cardboard cutouts though. Not to mention most of them are completly unneccesary. Anyway, as an Isekai connoisseur, I have seen far worse.
What are the flaws? Basically everything else. So I'm not gonna waste your time explaining them, here is a list instead:
-Low budget animation
-Horrendous, laughable fight coreography
-unremarkable stock OST (and terrible sound balance)
-Semi-interesting premise ruined by the painfully unimaginative writing and catastrophic pacing
-Episode starts->MC goes to a new place -> meets with an old friend -> old friend overjoyed -> flashback how they met. Rince and repeat.
-I don't even know what the hell was the last 3-4 episodes. Damn, it was garbage. The last few minutes is semi-decent though.
In summary, a horribly executed garbage show, which doesn't even meet the fairly low Isekai standards, but at least a finished product, and I appriciate the attempt. So, to support the initiative, I slapped a recommended tag on it. It would be nice to see more finished Isekai stories, but for god's sake, please execute it at least decently.
