Even if the jokes don’t always land, it’s more than most isekai that play their stale power fantasies straight. The show is really adamant about being a comedy and it does a lot of different gags and jokes to make for a more entertaining sit. They try to make the characters more interesting by focusing on the more comedic angle of the series, and that is honestly its strongest aspect. They also introduce mentors who don’t do anything, and there are no stakes in the action since our hero can’t be harmed. As I said, it suffers from a lot of the nonsense that plagues the most boring and generic isekai stories that include no stakes and harem elements that become slightly creepy when it’s about our lead who is a child for much of the show’s run. It’s co-directed by Noriyuki Nakamura and Mitsutaka Noshitani, and written by Natsuko Takahashi. Well, while I do not like this show for a multitude of similar reasons I don’t like most isekai power fantasies, I can say that at least this isn’t a tedious chore in many ways. The Aristocrat’s Otherworldly Adventure (Crunchyroll)ĬW: Harassment played for laughs, and some slight hints of incest. It also isn’t the only show this season with incest or a possible incest angle. It has a funny angle of the brother being sent to a fantasy world and not being the special one, whereas the sister is the one with all of the power fantasy tropes, and some of the jokes, (or at the very least, the execution of the jokes are more humorous than usual), but the incest angle is an instant turn-off to ever recommending this show. Sure, they can try to write it off that she really cares about her brother, but it’s not in a way that says she just cares for him on a platonic level, because without that angle, it’s just a middling if well-executed edgy dark isekai fantasy comedy. The whiplash you get from how well-executed certain scenes and jokes are is on the level of some of the best action and comedy anime out there, and yet what falls apart is the fact that this has a heavy emphasis on an incest subplot. Out of all of the shows to have a stunning visual look and some of the best-directed action of the season, it shouldn’t be the anime with an incest kink with the older sister wanting to be very close to her younger brother. What’s so fascinating about this anime is how hard it goes with its visual presentation. It’s based on the novels and manga by Konoe. This anime is directed by Hiroaki Takagi, written by Yohei Kashii, and produced by Studio Gekko. This show honestly has the exact opposite problem from which most of these shows from this season suffer. Your petty pathetic power fantasy ruins any potential this anime could have had in the story department. Screw this self-indulgent power fantasy nonsense. Outside of its repugnant characters and terrible writing, it’s just another power fantasy that isn’t interesting at all. It’s a bad version of Lookism that actually delves into the topics this show failed to tackle with much more nuance. It’s one of those lazy and uninspired power fantasies that aren’t interested in going in-depth with how society treats people who look different or are heavy. The mean-spirited nature of this show is cartoonish and melodramatic in the worst way possible. We have yet another isekai where we have a lead character who is fat, and then one day finds all of his problems are solved when he is able to go from his human world to a fantasy world, turns into a super thin hot guy, gets two worlds worth of friends and harem acquaintances, and is as shallow as a puddle. The adaptation is produced by Millepensee, is written by Shin Itagaki, and co-directed by Shin Itagaki and Shingo Tanabe. As I not so subtly said, this is based on the novels by Miku. Do you mean to tell me the same author behind Fruit of Evolution has another terrible isekai that is also problematic, hateful, and mediocre? Color me surprised that this author is pretty terrible or at the very least, has a big issue with fat people.
