In August 2022, it was announced the novels would be receiving an anime television series adaptation. [1] The series is produced by TMS Entertainment and animated by Millepensee, with Shingo Tanabe directing, Shin Itagaki serving as chief director and supervising the scripts, Hiromi Kimura adapting Rein Kuwashima's character designs for animation and serving as chief animation director, and Akiyuki Tateyama composing the music.

[c] The opening theme song is "Gyakuten Geki" ( 逆転劇, "Turnabout Drama") by Tsukuyomi, while the ending theme song is "Hachimitsu" ( ハチミツ, "Honey") by Shikao Suga.

[42] The initial streaming of the series' 13th and final episode was inexplicably delayed by two days, which ended up airing on June 28, instead of June 26. [43] [44] In September 2021, Yen Press announced that they had licensed the novels for English publication. [9] I can't believe I'm about to say something positive about The Fruit of Evolution, but at least that godforsaken blight understood that it has become impossible to treat the cheap reincarnation power trip with any seriousness anymore; you either handwave the setup as a necessary but perfunctory evil—which is what most of these shows tend to do lately—or you confront the whole core of your premise as the fundamentally stupid joke that it has become. Watching Tenjou wallow in dramatic self-pity for nearly an entire episode is neither entertaining nor emotionally moving. It merely reinforces the toxic subtext that so many of these crummy shows peddle, intentionally or otherwise: that to live as a nice, regular, but not conventionally attractive or popular guy in the everyday world is a fate worse than death.It's normal to sprinkle in moments of pure fun, like a beach episode or a Chika dance. It's a form of fan service; it's icing on the cake. 'Isekai Cheat Skill' is a cake made entirely of icing, a fan service apotheosis, and it works improbably well. Light comedies look downright mean-spirited by Sadly, beyond Yuuya's characterization, this is pretty bog standard, even if it looks better than your average isekai LN adaptation. It's a little different in that Yuuya's otherworld journey takes place via a door that his world-traveling grandfather left him inside a secret treasure room, which feels like a good misdirect since the opening scenes seem to be heavily hinting at death via traffic accident. Yuuya himself realizes immediately that things are just way too easy once he walks through the ornately carved door, though of course he's not foolish enough to turn down the gift he's been offered. It feels almost like he's playing house in a fantasy land where none of his tormenters can reach him, and smiting monsters that can't actually harm him through the magic barrier around his new cabin could be sort of cathartic for him. But yeah, it's still pretty much same old, same old, complete with stats, pop up windows, and ludicrous powers for almost no work. this anime is what a 13 year old middle schooler daydreams about. It's so unapologetically conceited that it even makes the entire cast clap when our protagonist does anything at all. This is the self-insert fantasy of a 13 year old who has just entered puberty. There was a set up for a bigger story what was nice but I couldn't sit through another book telling me how hard the MC had it and how great he is now all while everything falls into their lap - and it is just sort sharp points to tell you he had it tough and hes great rather than a story unfolding making you feel 'ouch, poor bloke' and 'oh wow, he really has grown powerful'. In May 2018, the web novel won the Grand Prize at the 3rd Kakuyomu Web Novel Contest in the Science Fiction/Modern Fantasy Division. [50] By October 2023, the series had 3 million copies in circulation. [51] See also [ edit ]

Another problem is that he becomes a literal Adonis overnight—and never even notices. On one hand, I get what the show's going for. I am a person who almost never looks in mirrors. If the one in my bathroom broke, I probably wouldn't bother with a replacement. However, the idea that Yuuya wouldn't notice his absolutely ripped body is just silly. After such a weight loss, you feel and move different. for convenience, squandering moments that could have been thrilling. An inexplicable and disheartening decision that tarnishes the overall aesthetic of the anime.

Manga

comparison. There may be no series more eager to please the viewer. If a scene isn't pleasantly surprising, it's at least predictably enjoyable. basically solving any issues the guy had in one day. Making all the struggles they build up completely and utterly worthless... HOLY COW, most people who write Isekai stories are so retarded!!!
