The story is arguably slow, the first few episode was amazing where the story developed, while in the middle it starts to falter and continue with what feels like fillers episode with minimal to no developement in the plot. some episode felt really dragged out. depsite all this the story that is trying to discover the theme of humanity in a setting where you are reincarnated as a monster is really refreshing, it strays far away from your normal undead isekai/fantasy show where they just dont bother addressing this part. i just hope if this has a chance for season 2 it will develope the plot a little bit more and maybe move the pacing up alittle bit.
World Building: 6/10
Not much to say about the world and settings. not much was revealed aside from your usual isekai/fantasy, but i can see glimpse of hope that it will be an interesting world.
Characters: 9/10
this is the main selling point for this anime, very rarely does your isekai disguised as fantasy have solid points on this one. the main character felt genuine and the kind of guy you would root for, he is the underdog who has given all of his effort to achieve his dreams, he is smart, kind and bad with women but despite all this he was limited by his human body. Finally after breaking his limitation of his human body, now he has the dilemma with his humanty, does being revived as a monster make him stop being a human. Does any of that matters now that he have the power to achieve his dreams.
moving on to the side characters, so far the side characters are very much solid too, some are pretty cliche but the chemistry the mc have with all the side characters are great.
Art: 6/10
The art are okay, there isnt too much to talk about. The quality did drop after a few episode but thats understandable from something that dont have much budget to start with.
Animation: 6/10
the animation it started with was good, but just like the art, the animation quality starts to drop with every new episodes.
Opening & Ending: 8/10
The ending really suits the overall theme of this shows, every time i hear the guitar intro it just soothe my souls and then the chorus kicks in and i ended up listening to the whole song. The opening is also very good, but it dont really capture me as much as the ending song.
Sound effect & Musical score: 5/10
Im not an expert when it comes to this, usually i dont pay much attention to musical score since they are usually too quite to listen to using a speaker. Sound effect & musical score has the ability to heighten up important moments and you can feel these stuff when it trully matters and i can say that at most time i couldnt feel the sound effect or the musical score.
Enjoyability: 7/10
Well despite the slow story this is quite enjoyable, mainly the interections between the characters are good enough to keep you watching. there isnt a lot of action so if you are the type who couldnt watch a video without subway surfer to keep your attention this is not for you. this is more of a human drama than your usually isekai power fantasy.
Overall: 6.8/10
total score [54] / total category [8] = Overall [6.8]
