Still, I love that the show is comedy focused, and a perfect outlet to spend more time with all these characters. But they're shallowly written, kiddy versions of themselves, with no room for the edgyness most of these shows are known for. So, no black comedy like in Overlord or Tanya the Evil, no quick and over the top scenarios like in Konosuba, no compelling drama like in Re:Zero. Wait, what's the appeal exactly?
It's kind of like having a Garfield comic strip made of all these series. It would at least have been a golden opportunity to poke fun at isekai as a genre, but they barely went beyond "Oh, you're from Japan too?" in season one, and it's similarly basic here. The humor is more funny cute than funny ha ha.
It's perfectly serviceable, and it's kind of fun how they keep adding to the cast with new shows like Shield Hero and Cautious Hero. Still, it's pretty underwhelming for the most part. Very safe and brand friendly, like an extended 10 minute advertisement.
