I really like the series and Mariabelle is just as cute and expressive as I imagined her when reading the novels. I really love the adaptation so far.
If my monsters are imagined, why do they trigger the motion sensor lights?

I’m hoping they end up hopping back and forth between the two worlds,
Don’t worry, there will be comfy slice of life during the day and fantasy adventuring during the night.
It’s an easy comparison to make with the Isekai-Amazon gimmick.
Not what I got from that scene at all. He said she could be his daughter, yes, but he is old enough that someone at the theoretical daughter age would be an adult. She also doesn’t look like an underage girl and she is the proprietress of an inn. Nothing really that gave me any underage vibes.
But in all fairness, I’m in this age bracket and my own kids are all adults already so seeing someone in their twenties as “daughter-age” isn’t so far fetched to me.
Where do you get that pedo part from? The girl seemed like a consenting adult.
I don’t know about y’all but I would have maybe tried to grab her if I’ve seen her get close to the platform. Just a thought…
Neuro-sama collab when?
You don’t like Bonsai Kittens?
It feels like yet another self-insert fantasy
Yes, you can definitively guess the internal picture the creator has of the target audience.
There are things that are likable but if I continue watching it depends on whether or not MC will stay this ultra shy. Between my pleb self not appreciating poems and the translation killing what little interest there might be, it’s MC’s shy personality that can tip the scale for me.
This is entertaining. The question is how fast the basic premise wears out and if they can introduce new aspects to keep it fresh, but if it can manage to stay this way I’ll definitively going to watch it.
You could pick up Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill in the meantime.
Exactly my type of show.
I can already tell that this is one I’ll finish.
Yeah but this is issue is also why isekai is so damn rampant. As an author it’s a bit of a cheat to have your MC not know anything so obviously they get things told to them instead of doing more subtle world building.
I don’t think this is an isekai problem. While yes, it’s a narrative crutch that makes exposition easier, it’s not used in the way you mentioned. As shown here in this anime it can even be a detractor. I’ve read hundreds of isekai novels that don’t fall into the same narrative traps as seen here. I think in this case it’s just a bad author (or screenwriter) and the exposition would be just as bad without the isekai aspect. The audience needs exposition regardless of the setting.
Where the isekai setting helps as a narrative crutch is explaining things to the reader/viewer in modern earth terms. I.e. “that dragon was as big as a school bus”.
Your John Wick example is a great example of “show;don’t tell” exposition where the writer/director had faith in the intelligence of the audience. We get it even without spelling it out. And if we don’t we’ll look it up online or discuss it with our peers until we get it. I really wish this type of exposition were the general rule, but I feel like it’s being used less and less. It’s this “no viewers left behind” mentality where studios are afraid to confuse even a fraction of the audience.
The show does something that’s a pet peeve of mine. The way the info dump by explaining everything to the character that the characters should be perfectly aware of. For example telling MC how old he is or who his family members are and who owns the land their house is on. Those types of dialogues are so unrealistic that it really pisses me off. Just imagine that in real life:
“Hello, Mary my wife. How is the apartment doing that belongs to Victor who is our landlord?”
“Oh it’s doing great Gary who just got 35 years old last month. Since you are the second son and have 3 more siblings who all live in the same complex we get a nice little rent reduction. And once Ethan who is our son moves out we have more time to build our house in Capetoon which is the small city the next town over”.
“I love you wife”
“I love you too husband”
This is Death Parade minus the banger op and gambling.
The first “mystery” fell a bit flat but I can already smell some heart wrenching moments on the horizon.
Oh a new anime about the industry and it has high production value. Count me in!
Huh, overworked girl collapses. I guess she has to learn to depend on others.
Wait what? no one told me this is an isekai.
Haha, the hero is funny.
My god look at that transformation scene! This is so awesome!
Okay I like it but I wanted a new anime industry show! I feel betrayed!
I really missed Maomao. Kadokawa should print those books as merch.
