That's one weird start for isekai considering this guy fairly cheerful, optimistic and love to explore stuffs.
I guess it helped that the world he isekai-ed into looks nice in sense that while bandit and rapist exist it doesn't mean there's no sensible person outside MC inner circle; the lack of guilt he mentioned probably will have similar explanation to how Momonga/Ains common sense gradually warped being Lich. Hard to ignore comparisons as they're like total opposite to each other: all black wizard and all white paladin. LOL. MC is voiced by Maeno 'huh, no wonder it sound similar to Veldora and Wilnas for a moment. The MVP is art director. I love how the direction let them to swap between hand drawn and CG seamlessly. Looking at the ED running on full CG I'm guessing they're confident taking this as they noticed the MC help the quality control to certain extent. Looking forward to see if they can push it.

But usually in web novels back then, when the main character would isekai in, the first person(s) MC would encounter would be one or more female characters in need of help and/or a carriage being attacked. But he didn't do that first. It was later. |

Huh...somehow I thought this one is a sequel of one show I didn't watch in previous season. Turn out they are not the same one.
You know you're in for something good when a show open with rape scene and I am not disappointed It's a decent and funny first ep.

It'll be interesting to see where this goes. Given the attitude of the MC, probably they'll keep it more or less light-hearted, which clashes with stuff like "pretty graphic attempted rape", as well as the pretty damn over the top violence.

I had a good time with it. They really do mesh a surprisingly cheerful tone with over the top violence and...attempted rape. It does certainly feed into a sense of enjoyment of seeing scumbags like that getting bisected in one slash. Dropping a final boss level individual into a starting area kind of situation.
Did find it a bit interesting how the biggest dilemma for Arc was whether or not it was safe to make a move. At least he hasn't gotten completely drunk on his power. Or he's just rationalizing that he doesn't really know how powerful the average person around him is right now. Also seems likely that the body he's in is having an influence on his emotional state. Doubtful that the bandits being scumbags is what kept him from feeling guilt over killing. Also could explain his overall positive attitude. He might not be able to feel the panic that would naturally arise to waking up in another world with no understanding of how he got there. Also able to play up his role without stressing out over interacting with others. Just a fun first episode. I'm going to keep enjoying this.

He does however feel joy over eating new and tasty food (so sense of taste and smell are intact, despite his overall skellyness), experiences embarassment and joy at the young lady he rescued fawning over him... so at the very least he can experience positive emotions.

Ah, the good isekai life of an OP MC. Super powers, cool weapons, tasty food, beautiful women (that you really don't need because you don't have your reproductive organs anymore or care for it but still enjoy the company), things to kill and adventures.
Better than to be an isekai male in a yuri show, lol. |

90% of all characters are female?
Was that written because most isekai anime adaptions have been more for male targeted audiences? Or was it because not many of the hundreds of isekai otome game villainess/breaking engagement stories or isekai duke's/marquis daughter reincarnation stories have been seen? I know what they're trying to say though. |
