The story behind this anime is quite uniqe, even though it is another anime based on an overpowered mc. I enjiyed the episodes up to maybe the 20th one, where I couldn't blindly ignore anymore that the story got more and more chaotic and the characters stayed the same even though they clearly had to change. In short, I recommend this anime to anyone, who wants to watch an anime with a unique and kinda fresh storlyine and if you love that feeling when the pieces of a story slowly gets pushed into place from episode to episode in you head. There are quite a few suprises and turns in this anime which made it that much more enjoyable. Also  it had some good action parts and perverted, but funny scenes. These elements together made me watch it till the end, but it's a shame that the last few episodes are just couldn't bring the quality of the previous episodes. 

Now, with the quick review behind our back, let me share my longer opinion:

  • Story (8 points): As I said, it was quite unique for me, even though it had overpowered characters which is unquestionably a big trend nowadays. From the beginning it was something fresh, so I was easily swooped in and really enjoyed the episodes. Then it had many mindblowing turns and after a while it seemed like everything had meaning, even the first episode, which seems like just a normal pilot, just to start the story. It was exciting to finally watch something that had such a smart storyline. BUT I had to let go those 2 points from the 10, because of the ending episodes. I felt it was really rushed and it was sad to feel that the exciting aura this anime had built up from the beginning was just washed away by the chaotic mess they made from the last few episodes. Where you should be happy, that something gets solved, or sad because your favorite character struggles, where you should just watch the endgame unfold...you can't feel anything.
  • Aniation (8 points): I think the animation was really nice, with bright colors and good effects. It wasn't something extraordinary, but I really liked it, so that's it.
  • Sound (7 points): I don't think I will remember nor the openings, nor the endings, but there were some really nice, melancholic songs in between, so that's why it got a higher than average point.
  • Characters (5 points): Ahh...the characters...at one point this even made me a bit angry, because there is just no character development! There are a few episodes where we can peek in the past, so we can know the backstory of the overpowered mc, but that's it. In the present, where the anime takes place, there is othing. Tha female lead is weak, cries because she is weak, yet does nothing to change that. She just gets tossed around by the events, and the other females gets tossed around with her. And of course the male characters just follow them. If we could see just so much as an "okay, I'll try to fight with you", or "I'll work my ass off too, so I wouldn't be a hidrance", this anime would be so so so much better. But yeah..it hurts. 

Overall I gave it 7 points, because even though it caused major dissapointments on some aspects, this anime was a fresh one and mostly I had a really enjoyable time watching it. Hope you will like it too.

We all know the problems of this anime and what they can do to a human being after watching just the first two or three episodes and also the animation quality, harassment towards female characters or maybe encouraging rape culture. It's also needless to talk about the writer being delusional in various parts of the show (especially thinking that a person is able to walk/hike 40,000 kilometers in 5 years). But still, I somehow managed to survive all that and kept watching the show. ‌With all that said, Let's look at the bright side of this as well. The story or rather just the idea behind it to be more specific was nothing I've ever seen (to my knowledge of shows which I've seen before) and was pretty cool. So I'm not saying the anime altogether was good, I'm saying just the story itself was actually good (in my opinion) other than that, the anime had issues in many aspects. It was hard to watch the anime and turn a blind eye to all those problems and keep on watching, but at the end of the day, I would say that I enjoyed it.

There's quite some haters on this anime because of the ecchi part that is being taken in another direction than other ecchi anime's, but lets face it, it's an ANIME, so if you wanna cry about rape, go to the street and find suspicious people to get them arrested.

Now my opinion: although I can see how some people are bothered, I very much enjoyed the anime , because its really funny and also sometimes emotional.

It's a very interesting concept of anime that I have not seen yet in this way, although it could be compared somewhere.

Anyway, as long as you're not a crybaby who smashes their PC because of something that is just as small as this, or a person that rates the anime after 3 episodes, it's (in my opinion) quite a funny anime to try out.

I also like the plot and how some things that are shown in episode 7 can make a total plot change for a specific character in the last episode.

Final word: If you're not like anyone else in the comments who rates this lower than a 5 JUST BECAUSE there are hands that can grab a leg, or boobs like in normal ecchi anime (only last half though, and not even nipples, so its also sorta " sencored), you'll be fine and might have just as much laughter and emotion in watching this anime like me.


PS: For everyone who will hate me for not caring about your crybaby anti fakerape talk: I won't even read.

This is really a good anime. Yes the first few episodes is kind of filler or I was not that interested in the story but later it's like a boom, non stop action. The concept is really unique and you will fill kind of attraction to charectors at the end and the end is also good. 

Hoping for a season to 2😊.

The show took a few episodes before it really got me interested so you have to stick with it I think it took me first 6 episodes to really understand what was going on in the story and would it be interesting. The overall story line I found very good and wholesome that came together by the end. It was a slightly new take from other stories I have read or watched before. The character development kept me interested for a few. While you can mostly figure it out on your own there was nice little twists in the show I found. The downside for me mainly about this is the commical moments are taken a little to far and don't flow with show always. It always ends up being promiscuous. If you are bored and need a new show that has action, adventure, and humor definetly give it a go.
