Dont watch this, plain and simple. Manga readers, dont even bother as it doesnt follow it much after the first bit of episodes. Story boarding by far was the worst ive seen, whomever did it needs to get out of the anime industry as they are that bad.  There is no connection to the characters, there is simply nothing redeeming about this. Its non-canon story for the end of the season is just bad, poorly written and theres just no emotion to it. Its just a completely lifeless anime. Animation wise its not bad, its not using CGI battles and such which is the only positive about this anime.  Sound design went decent, but he pretty much used only a handful of magic, so the uniqueness wore off after a bit.  Character wise, MC is given nothing for a backstory, you are just dropped in and its just horrible. If you didnt read the manga a bit to get an idea, this is probably a one episode or less drop for the vast majority of people. The character itself is supposed to be a quiet type person, but there was just no emotion here.  Overall, by far one of the worst adapations ive ever seen, and would steer clear of. Manga readers, you are gonna have to wait a while if ever for someone to touch this again after this trash heap.

I felt nothing when watching this anime. Literally nothing. This is the first time I can't even say that "at least this anime is a good time-waster!", because it isn't even good at that. Time DRAGGED ON while I watched this Anime. Literally everything you see in this anime is generic, cliche, overused, emotionless, no sense of tension, nothing. The only people who would enjoy this are those new to anime, who are ignorant and don't know that this studio literally wipped up this random crap in a week or two then tried to make a quick buck from it, or those who don't realise that there is quite literally ZERO risk or consequence from anything that the protagonist becomes involved in. The protagonist just walks around killing enemies the way you would when farming in the same location for many hours in an MMORPG - boring and repetitive, however in this case there is no reward towards the end, neither any character development, nor a large harem forms, not even any noteworthy fanservice, literally NOTHING! THIS ANIME IS NOTHING. I CAN'T NAME A SINGLE QUALITY THAT MAKES THIS ANIME SOMETHING THAT ANYONE ABOVE THE AGE OF 3 WOULD EVER CARE ABOUT! The animation is the worst I've seen in a while too. Lots of staring contests mid-battle, and LOTS of re-used frames and ideas throughout it. The main spells you will see being used are "magic shield" and "fireball" throughout this anime, and the "bosses" are always based around DRAGONS. Out of all the creatures the writer/studio could have picked, they pick dragons. Yes, it's THAT level of cliche. And they just keep on using the dragons theme throughout the anime. Just dragons and dragons and dragons and dragons. Oh and also crazy cult people! Because THAT has definitely NOT been done before!! (did I mention bombs? Yeah. Lots of explosions, because that's suuuper exciting, right?) They show all these cool flashy interfaces and spells that the protagonist uses, but in reality it never amounts to anything interesting. Even the slimes which provide "commentary" are literally there just to make the kids who watch this go "woooow" as the slime shouts "woow look at that fireball!!", "it's so big!". So many of these cheap and worthless tricks in which they tried to make this anime seem "exciting" and "epic", or clearly targeted at 1y/o kids. When ultimately even the protagonist is purposefully emotionless, to save on budget of course, because why else would anyone think that lack of emotion is an interesting trait in a character? I've already been generous with the rating as-is. But it was painful watching this anime. Probably won't even watch the last episode because it's obvious what will happen... edit: Well I ultimately watched the last episode because I'm quite literally a masochist, and who would have guessed... what happened will definitely shock you! Because for the 1st time ever, streaming this anime was a complete waste of bandwidth. edit2: forgive the excessive formatting in the middle paragraph, but I had to share a glimpse of how baffled I was while I was watching this anime. I was absolutely stunned at how something like this could ever become a "TV Series", because in that case it means everyone has a chance at having their own anime, without even needing to put in any effort. Let me repeat, this anime is labelled as "TV", meaning, this was shown ON TELEVISION in certain countries on certain channels. I would have quit paying for my TV Service and thrown my TV out of the window if I saw something like this broadcasted.

I am normally the guy on here defending the isekai shows, but this one makes that pretty hard. The major story behind the show about a shadow organization was pretty good, but the normal story from show to show was uninspired to say the least. The MC is outright blah.  His voice is very monotone, and he shows almost no emotion at all.  His wolf companion is horrible too.  The slimes are the only characters on the show that could have been enjoyable, but their shrill and annoying voices make them pretty hard to put up with.  The show could have used another human companion for the group, but no. If you really love isekai you can get through it, but its on the low end of middle of the road shows.
