My Unique Skill Makes Me OP even at Level 1

Slice of adventurer’s life isekai series, where everything is dropped in dungeons including the main protagonist himself. It’s rather silly concept. MC has highest magic find possible. He gets more and better-quality loot. If you played any ARPG you know the drill. This allows him to become really overpowered. The core of the story is MC farming items and exploring ways to farm new items. Occasionally there is some sort of strong monster, which needs to be defeated. That’s pretty much the gist of it. I should mention he is sensitive on overworking and struggles of employees based on his past experience. Second half of the storyline is how MC makes friends … meaning mostly girls, who have crush on him sooner or later. The first one is Emily, who drops the MC in a dungeon. The most memorable is rabbit girl, because she is wearing bunny costume and because of her carrot obsession and fighting power. MC drops better quality carrots so she trying to make MC give her more. Guild’s receptionist Erza is destined to never get the MC, because her every attempt fails. The rest of side characters appear later on in the series. Visually the series is ok for slice of life I have no great visual expectations. I don’t remember soundtrack nor OP and ED. The settings and overall feel of the series is cartoonish. It’s quite simple and easy to watch series. If you have mood for such type of anime you might want to check it out. Towards the end I found myself increasingly disinterested with the series. It’s bit too boring for me. I’m more inclined to think this should be skip, if you are interested in something more substantive and exciting.

"My Unique Skill Makes Me OP even at Level 1" is a generic isekai and has questionable Morals.The main character is reincarnated in a video game-like world after being overworked in his previous life. While it does a good job of explaining what a dungeon-type isekai is to someone unfamiliar with the genre, it lacks overall value. The characters are one-dimensional, and there is no story arc; it's just one thing happening after another.Let's start with the story. The protagonists are just reacting to whatever happens, without giving it much thought. There is no clear goal except maybe winning at capitalism (maximizing the amount of drops collected - without taking into account the well being of people outside of his harem). Want to farm a dungeon? Somebody is in the way? Should I ask myself why they are in the way? No, absolutly not. Let's just use force, I've heard it solves everything.When it comes to the characters it's not much better. The main character is goal-oriented but doesn't think about the implications of his actions. He mindlessly accepts requests from people in his guild and from the town hierarchy without questionning them and is completely oblivious to hints of romantic interrest. The female characters are one-dimensional, lacking depth; they each have a single character trait and that's about it.The art is average and not particularly interesting. The animation can be lazy at times, with only the mouth moving during dialogue scenes and the battle sequences are far from giving you an immersive experience. The sound is kind of good ; the sound-effects are well timed and the soundtrack is decent.Overall that anime left a bad taste in my mouth and I get the feeling that the only moral of it is:"You don't have what it takes to be successful in life? Too bad... Have you considered being gifted instead?"

This is a very sweet and calming anime.  The best part of this anime is that Ryouta and Emily are such good people that look out for each other and anyone else.  Eventually the two build a group of friends/adventurers that are close and can rely on each other.  The storyline is simple and straight forward, the animation is what I would refer to as standard, the voice acting is done very well, and I really enjoy the character personalities.  I believe this is an anime for anyone if they enjoy simple peaceful wholesome storylines.  I do like that this anime covers the problem some people have regarding overworking, and what it can cost/steal from ones life.  Most of these characters have problems from the past that they overcome with spending time with those that brighten their lives.  This anime focuses on people supporting each other rather than any in depth storyline or world building.
