Simple fun!
dillonjeffers-521639 February 2021
This show doesn't bring anything new to the table of anime. But to me, it's been a fun watch. The main character is relatable and I like the way we get to see glimpses of his pass life. Its a little bit of a slow burn. It's has some light comedy and some action. The show has a calming atmosphere to it that just really grabbed me. It's not a show for everyone. If you are a fan of slice of life anime. Or just wanting to relax and set back this anime will be for you. Over all the animation looks good. This show would be in my top 25 anime to watch.

So short ! it has the potential to become a great lighthearted isekai anime
deepankarrr-658086 January 2021
Seriously why just 12 episodes !?they could easily make this a whole 100 or 200 episodes series as it has a plot with open ending ! But if i say so this is not the best anime yet because of the the way it progress till thr end .I just literally waiting for some concludive ending but it just ended with a tease for second season and we have to wait for an entire year or more which is fustrating

A delightful Show
extraplay-618381 July 2023
No drama, little conflict, delightful simply delightful and it should get more than 2 seasons. Sometimes these sweet little anime's who don't make us cry but smile should get more credit.

This is a cute OP hero makes friends and does good things for 12 episodes. This show is a torrent of feel good scenes to escape into when life is tough. I really enjoyed this show, because there was no conflict, and sometimes its nice to leave a show with a smile on one's face rather than a blubbering mess.

It is free of contrived drama for drama's sake, and that's an even trade off for me.

Watch this if you want to smile for 6 straight hours.

I really enjoyed this show, and while the lack of conflict means that the wins don't feel quite as earned, it also means it's free of contrived drama for drama's sake, and thats an even trade for me.

Watch this if you want to smile for 6 straight hours.

Quite good in sub
joelk198614 January 2021
I normally watch anime subbed and if I enjoy it rewatch it when full dubs out, couldn't make it through this because of females voice for main character, just stupid. Shows nice and cute but that's just too annoying for me personally.

Actually pretty good to watch
ashomkarp15 November 2020
It's kinda similar to "that day I was reincarnated as a slime", that series was kinda dark type this is just a "fairy" type series, enjoyable to watch and also voice of MC is so cute I really liked it and also the FMC's voice too .... Everyone's voice is cute

Very mellow tone and calming mood setup. I found myself fall asleep in season 2. It was okay.
sisubalan8 August 2022
Really enjoy the storyline and the characters. Big fan of 'isekai' genre. Love this fantasy world, the adventure as well the action thought there werent that much to begin with. Soothing sound effects and great voice casts.

Felt like playing a mobile game as it involve class upgrade and running business. Recommended.

Season 2 was underwhelming. Lack actions and adventure compared to season 1. This season solely focuses on expanding ryoma's business.

Wonderful
carlos-0371618 June 2022
I love this series. It is fun and endearing, filled with good-hearted people. It never fails to make me smile and feel good. It is not a complex story, but it does not need to be. It is about the rewards of kindness.

Nose dived into mediocre...
gtenalokes14 March 2023
The first couple of episodes are really good (9/10 stars) I must admit, but overall the whole series is a childish (5/10 stars)

It really starts strong with a well developed magic system, a well written story, a lot like an overly diluted lazy version of "that time I got reincarnated as a slime"

Unfortunately a couple of episodes in (episode 7 to be precise) it degrades into repetitive pointless manipulative nonsense the writing takes a nose dive when the plot starts hyper focusing on the business and starts going around in circles, its going nowhere.

The baby-ish voices and dialogue gets annoying, 11 years old is not that young, they gave a subpar reason but it doesn't hold up, everyone is so unreasonably polite that the story lacks any form of tension and the main character apologizes way too much for no reason.

This was very enjoyable to watch if you like light-hearted isekai's
trimmsthem11 January 2023
By The Grace Of The Gods is an isekai that's a hit or miss with some people simply because it's very light-hearted in tone that's, as one reviewer put with my own spin on it, fairytale-esque. Struggles, strife, suffering, loss or certain hells that most protagonists in anime go through usually defines these shows. But not this one. It also only lightly touches on dark subject matter very briefly and returns to the happy stuff. But, it also brings up cool ideas you'd typically see in RPG games when you consider how they present the slimes capabilities. But if you're looking for an anime with a more serious or darker tone or that's really f-ed up, this isn't the one for you. Some people really hate a lack of "real conflict" or confrontation. This really isn't action-packed or much of a funny show. This is more of a streamlined "everything goes perfectly" sorta thing.

Cute, lighthearted and predictable
dameon_green27 January 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This Isekai is surprisingly light hearted, lacks conflict, strife, serious violence, suffering, challenges, or anything other trope that seem to define nearly every anime in the genre which by default makes it stand out.

Add to that the main character is a child (who also remains one through out the 1st season.) with overwhelming power who uses it responsibly and you end up with an oddball show that is super cheesy but at the same time strangely enjoyable.

All that said the pace is slow and exceptionally predictable, so it's something I'd watch in the background while doing something else.

Pro's:
  • Unusual story.
  • Good English Dubbing.
  • Light hearted and family friendly.


Con's:
  • Lower quality and erratic animation, with bad CGI shoehorned in at times.
  • Once the plot is figured out it's predictable to a fault.
  • Slow pace.

Best anime
dhruvsingla-476556 March 2022
This is one of the best anime I have ever seen..... All the characters are so cute and funny and the characters give you a important lesson of life and reality that is yet to be faced.

But don't delay season 2 this much...

Downgrade of The Manga/Novel
fadi_setiawan12 January 2022
This anime makes the main character become bland with no incredible abilities as portrayed in the manga/novel.

They made shortcuts and ignore some important parts in the manga/novel, which made the story boring.
