Deserves more than it gets
hypnozzz14 October 2020
It's a great anime for people who love overpowered heros. I understand that's kind of a niche taste, but I quite enjoyed the thought that was put into it.

Oh, and an anime where the MC actually gets the girl? No failed love confessions or endless awkward "will they won't they". It's refreshing.

Underrated

The MC is reincarnated after dying to a world of magic. Where he is the strongest one to use magic as well as swordsmanship. It deserves atleast 8/10.

Absolutely Love It.
jeromeboodlal4 December 2020
I would 100% percent recommend this show, it also has a english dubbed version as well. I thought this show was going to be boring at first from the plot but when I actually watched it, it was amazing, can't wait for season 2.

Admittedly mediocre
invisibleunicornninja19 October 2019
While this show really isn't at all original, I have to say that it does have some redeeming qualities.

The art is simplistic, though aesthetically pleasing, and the animation is very stiff and restrained. However, the voice acting is actually really good. With better visuals to go with the voices, this could've been a lot more entertaining. It's kind of disappointing considering how expressive some of the voices are when the visuals are barely changing.

The story, while overall somewhat bland, is actually somewhat refreshing in some ways. Yes, the protagonist is overpowered, but he's nowhere near as stupid as some of the protagonists you get in these types of shows. He actually confesses his feelings for the girl and it happens before the final episode.

Another good thing is that the villain is well-written. He's not the greatest villain ever, but he's decent.

Also, the action is surprisingly well-choreographed. The only problem with it is that there's no sense of danger or tension due to how over-powered Shin (the protagonist) is. The music does not help at all with this.

Overall, I'd only recommend this show if you're isekai trash like me.

Very enjoyable!
emil_hohmann-9037525 January 2020
There are only 2 reincarnation anime I've enjoyed so far, this and Kights & Magic. It's a little campy and they could add a little more detail, but i laughed my butt off on several occasions. The main character is noble and a little clueless at times, but it has a great dynamic and the characters mesh well. The antagonist is a person you want to hate and pity at the same time. It's an exciting show that seems to be building to an exciting crescendo. Here's hoping for a season 2!

Inconsistent
dryeti23 September 2022
I will keep it short, the anime does a very good job establishing multiple aspect of it's world for 9 episodes, both magic human and political relations are constantly considered around an extremely overpowered protagonist, and that's my main issue. After the well written start the whole thing does a 180 and the last episodes give 0 care about the rules that were so important before, if the "2" parts were separate entities they could be pretty good, but put together it makes no sense at all.

If you not the kind of person who pays attention to details you might enjoy it, but as the story and the conversations are mostly centered around said details, I'm not sure you could ignore them, even willingly....

Amazing!
belbylynne18 April 2019
If you're a fan of reincarnation anime you'll love this! The animation style is beautiful, the dubbing is done well, the magic is awesome, (the story isn't the most original so far but it's by no means a copy cat story,) it's funny, it has the typical cute girls, nice guys, arrogant bullies, supportive relatives and skilled mentors that I love seeing, and it's an overall joy to watch. You immediately find yourself falling in love with the main character and wanting to see him grow throughout his journeys. I'll be counting down the days until each new episode airs!

Average upon average
mr-altex10 June 2020
Story line is nothing special, classic isekai plot, revolving around girl and saving the world yet the amount of fan service in this is way too much to stay entertained.

Characters are flat and there is almost no development in anything including the main character. It is too bad, the take on the magic principles was fairly promising concept how to justify the overpowered MC.

If you enjoy flashy battles and bouncing boobs where the outcome of everything is clear from the beginning, it is all right.

Odd values.
maxenen30 April 2019
Warning: Spoilers
In the second episode a girl asks for help. The protagonist helps her. To help her even more he offers to provide protective gear for her. She is then asked ''Are you worthy to receive this?''. Her answer is something along the lines of ''No. I am selfish for asking for help and I am not worthy to be saved from harm.'' and then she is worthy to be helped and saved from harm. She actually say that she tricked the protagonist into helping her by asking him to help her. I don't understand the logic behind that.

What the actual heck is the moral lesson in this scene? Why are you worthy to be saved from harm if you think you deserve harm? Who have authority to answer which innocent person is or is not worthy to be saved from, in this case, rape and abuse? Is it not the one providing the gift that decide who gets the gift? The clothes are free and the enchant is basically like an autograph so time and money is not an issue. The only thing relevant here is if her life is worth protecting and the right answer is apparently no.

Why is answering this question with ''I asked for help so I am clearly selfish. I actually tricked the protagonist by asking for help(?). I overall deserve harm if I can't handle this alone.'' an acceptable answer? It shows a lack of self respect and a really twisted view on life itself. Or is it fine if you think you deserve harm but other do not? It's the strangest lesson on values I've seen in an anime. I know Japan does things differently, but come on. This is not lollicon, tentacles or harem. This is straight up masochistic. And its encouraged!

This was all i had to say on this. It's overall a decent anime.

Loved
carlos-0371618 June 2022
I really loved it. I would have preferred them to spend more time in his early childhood as that would have been fun. But the teen years are great. I would have liked to see more stories about the development and failure of magic but most series seem to jump through that kind of thing. I have watched this twice and thoroughly enjoyed it. Another series, please.

This show makes my blood boil!
ignalilad16 September 2021
Here I am yet again let down by another show that I thought would be the one to do it for me.

Sigh.

Here I am yet again let down by another show ruined by a suboptimal romance. For a show that had me hyped the first episode, I expected more. Every night I am reminded of how much I would enjoyed this show and fall into despair.

I would not recommend this if you don't want wantt your day ruined. Thanks.

It is a average anime it is just like any other isekai anime I wouldnt recommend watching it if you have watched any other isekai anime but if its you me first time watching one it would be worth a watch only 12 episodes and I think it will get a second season.

Great tv show that gets undue criticism
darklorddork27 December 2021
I love this show. It is fun and has an interesting concept. I don't understand the negative reviews as there is very little to critique about the show. The world is interesting and the characters are endearing. There is much fun to be had with this show and I pray it gets and second season.

Over the top
manoranjangarnayak19 June 2022
What a series. This series is full of actions,overpowered character and cute heroine there.with magic and action with isekai what can ask for more better.i don't know why this series doesn't gain popularity i think this series is far better than overlord,one punchman the overrated ones. This is my opinion please don't take it personally. And the creators leaved the show in the cliffhanger.well they are not in wrong as the series doest get a new season unless it is profitable and popular.i hope this series gain popularity and this is worthy of this. Waiting for season 2. Thank you Team for thi series.
