Despite being an isekai he seems of a completely different category the story is very beautiful certainly among the most original I've seen, the protagonist is not very powerful but he grows with good power ups the way in which the protagonist relates to the other characters is good his goal is particular and different from the other protagonists perfectly in line with the story, the side cast is not the best developed only in the deuteragonist and his "parents" for the rest nothing special even worse as regards the female cast even worse while the battles are simple and contain cgi but they are well done, taking everything into account I can say that it is a very valid work.

Its alright

There are so many Isekais that this could be easily missed. I thought that the faraway paladin was a bit rushed to be consolidated into just 13 episodes for a season. I found the second part to be more interesting than the first but there are better isekais out there.
THE FARAWAY PALADIN: Fantasy Adventure Isekai
Jinxxa_Wolf13 December 2023
THE FARAWAY PALADIN. This is a slower Isekai anime series, to be sure, but not nearly a bad as some people have been saying. The pacing is certainly slower for an adventure fantasy series, with much less action, gore and battles than other more popular series of the same breed might have, but I feel the backstory is important as well as character growth, and so far this series has been great at setting up those things. The art is solid, as well as the characters.
The story centers around Will, a young orphan raised by three undead monsters (Mary, the Mummy, Blood, the Skeleton & Gus, the Ghost) in the City of the Dead, isolated and apart from humanity. As he nears 15 years of age he is expected to strike out on his own and make a life for himself. He sets out to become a warrior priest, giving rest to lost souls and making allies along the way, such as Meneldor, the half-elf.
Will, the main young man is boyish, for sure, and naive in the beginning of the series but hopefully will soon mature as the show progresses and more so after he embarks on his journey. That aspect makes sense, as he grew up very sheltered, with only the three undead monsters that raised him
Overall, it seems an interesting premise for this Isekai Fantasy Adventure series. Visually the show is well made, and the art style is very pretty. Recommended for more patient viewers, who like stronger character development and slower paced back story building.

I actually loved the episode
Mysterygeneration14 January 2024
Although the first season's opening was quite intriguing, the second season's plot, an ordinary isekai OP MC story with no creativity or effort, is more akin to the first season's conclusion. I'll just give you the highlights so you can go on to something better.
Normal OP MC isekai fare: our hero accepts "impossible" tasks and receives unceasing plaudits for his near-divine abilities. This time, "The Hobbit" served as the inspiration, and the majority of the season centers on the quest to kill a dragon by traveling to a ruined dwarven nation.
You're familiar with the scenario. While the new ones are introduced to further honor our hero, the old ones don't actually reveal much. With the exception of the newcomer who transformed from a wimp to a battle-hardened veteran in the course of around two episodes, only the party gets adequate screen time, and I find it difficult to conclude that they have made significant progress. To be honest, it looks cheap. The majority of the images are "servisable," yet other sceneries are simply unattractive and some objects appear dreadfully stiff when they move. Is it here at all, then? It feels more like "I consumed it" and moved on than like I actually loved the episode because it is so cliched, trite, and forgettable.

This is a Great and Much Underrated Anime
extraplay-6183813 November 2023
This is such a wonderful reincarnation anime.
They did a great set up in the first 3 episodes and you can't help but like the protaganist/MC - Will...He is likeable and his adopted family members are likeable, even the grumpy old grandpa.
Then when he starts out in the world, he is not met by busty girls who have a crush on him, he instead are met by a wide range of interesting people, and Meneldor is my favourite followed by Tony.
I am so glad that it got a second season, and it seems like it will get a season 3. I loved it so much that the first time I watched it, I stayed up all night; the second time I watched it - was the next night - I just had to watch it again.
Please give it more love - its really great...I cried so many times.

Waste of Time
thepunsama16 January 2022
Completely uninteresting in a sea overrun by Isekai. Nothing about this show is interesting. In fact, it's slow, boring and the action is incredibly lackluster and weakly animated.
Studios need to stop releasing these crappy Isekai anime. The MC is lame, annoying and cries WAY too often. Jesus, where are the Isekai that have even half the qualities of Slime, Moonlit Fantasy, Knights and Magic, etc etc.

One of the worst and Boring Isekai of all time, it's just so boring and MC is lame as hell
shuvongkor19 May 2023
I have seen many isekai anime in my life and although many of them have similar concept, similar themes, similar MC (Protagonist), similar MV (Antagonist) and even similar story. Even so most of them felt enjoyable and worth watching. However, this anime "The Faraway Paladin" is just so boring. It is just a waste of time. The MC is just plain pathetic, lame and weak. Not likable at all. He cries a lot and wet his bed after seeing his step mummy mom half naked, which is encourage by his skeleton step Dad. WTF? The story doesn't seem to go anywhere. It's a stupid story begin with. Too many gods and demon kings, who are meaningless. The narrator says that these meaningless gods created the universe in a silly and stupid logicless way, then they fought with each other, blah blah blah. I am so bored. Just stay away from this sh**it anime.
