I plan on making more videos about this anime because I really like it!

I will say Reverse Isekai as a whole seem to have a pretty decent track record, at least from the one's I've seen and heard about. There's no played out formula or other BS like in regular isekai and they're not nearly (if at all) as focused on the whole OP wish-fulfilment. This, Devil is a Part Timer, and Re-Creators are all reverse isekai and they couldn't be any more different from each other. I really liked the show, but there was that small partof me that was a bit let down that it wasn't more like Durararararararararara and Baccano.

It didn't play with time as much, but the characters and setting reminded me a lot of Durarara. I feel like we're still so early on and it's going to get crazy later. So much has been set up, but not a lot has happened so far. I'm really excited for the next 12 episodes!

I gave this anime 9 episodes before dropping it. Way more than I would give most series and that's because I enjoyed both Baccano and Durarara. All along i kept thinking "ok, things are going to pick up soon". Perhaps it will, and if it does in season 2 or 3 in the future then I might give it another go. As of right now, it's just not doing it for me. The pacing after episode 3 is rough. Could be just me, but I also find the MC'S voice hard to listen to. You know, the whole deadpan, flat, calm but with little fluctuations. Which would be fine if the dialogue was enjoyable to read, if it was phrased in an interesting manner which it was'nt. Side note: I was thinking it might read and flow better in the manga (maybe?) but i don't know. Never read it. Anybody has any thoughts on the manga?

Me too! It just took a minute to understand what the show is gonna be like.

Since I read the manga, i also have an opinion. People slept on this anime. The part 1 story in this Animanga is purposely made on purpose at first. This is intentional for the introduction of the respective characters and their motives. However, the longer the storyline, the more interesting it is because the characters here are made as if they are alive, so the author takes different characters' POVs to clarify their development, goal. And that's the interesting part, for example in the current episode, all the characters head to one place with different goals. We are made to understand about those who want to solve this mystery, and in the end it all comes together in one place with different pov's . Whether it's the protagonist, cast, or antagonist. Eps 1-12 is only part 1 which is mainly intended for character recognition. The real thing will come soon, it will appear at the end of part 2.

This is definitely more along the lines of a detective show than a normal Isekai. I see what you mean about it dragging. I didn't mind it because I like the characters enough, but I think it's partially the storytelling philosophy of the author. He likes to show all of the world and characters being connected and them discussing everything. A lot of it was also to build up things that haven't happened yet though. The second part is coming out in a few months and I think that'll probably make it a lot better.

Watching dead mount death play, it kinda seemed like a crime org apologist, like what's with this illegal freelancing, does it have any redemption or something of value other than just medium of power struggle, and the classic Japanese "necessary evil" plot, like having a soft spot for kids isn't really much to levy on(not having it for claris would have been better, big bad shouldn't have such convictions, cause it hinders with what I should expect about them) really gives me the vibe that characters like claris are simply single minded, it's just buisness kind. Frankly I felt the MC would go like, "we don't do shitty things but we are friends with shitty people". I just wanna know if there is more to it cause I don't think I wanna go with a story that calls out others for their wrong doing but not a single bit of self introspection. Depending on whether it has any greater than self kind of motive. I can't really watch an anime or read a story where at the end of the day it only caters to the main characters having a happy or some ending, I like the ones where at the end of the day things change for the good, real good, like the poetic justice kind. This really is my preference, i started watching this show thinking MC got a chance at living with peace but somehow still holding to his rectitude, along with his struggling friends trying to make sense of the world, not the go with flow and secure peace kind of MC. I simply want to know if I can put my hopes into this show, or should i just forgo

This anime suffers from scope. The premise is excellent, characters likeable and approachable, along with a main protagonist that people can latch onto. (the whole bad guy with a heart of gold stuff). However, halfway through the first season...as a viewer, your dealing with half a dozen plots threads, all with sub plots, and a never ending onslaught of new characters being introduced that it makes your head spin. By the end of the first season, you even have an secret umbrella organization that overshadows the rest and takes center stage! shunting the previous 10 episodes in a closet for later. Honestly, spending a season in the murder bar with our 3 main characters investigating, then brutally murdering, a killer-of-the-week sort of thing, with the 2 Detectives chasing them...would have been fine. Wait till season 2-3 to introduce another section of the city, or another band of secret assassins...idk, grow the world naturally as our MC gets stronger or more acclimated to his new setting.

What you described is exactly what I love about it. It's extremely ambitious and not interested in telling a single direct narrative. Basically all of the authors works are like this with an enormous cast of character and constant switching plotlines. I never really felt disoriented going through it, but I also knew what to expect.

I feel like they are setting up too many variables and that there is no active "arc" to set all these character , baccano managed its 13 eps meticulously. I hate the female zombie/vampire , the anime in particular is goofy and too serious at the same time , its a mess . I didn't know it was made by Baccano's author but after knowing that i judge this even more harshly

It's a lot more like Durarara than Baccano. I like its messy story, it's chaotic and mysterious. It's just a massive collection of events. It's not for everyone but I think that's cool.

I just tried it and couldn't go past episode 2, the tonal shift was jarring, the characters just handwaving weird ass shit as not a big deal felt like bad writing, the generic archetypes used for the characters were disappointing due to how predictable they are, and the MC joining a band of assassins is the most incoherent decision polka could've made as he literally escaped from what is pretty much a band of assassins in his previous life to seek peace this is a mid anime at best, the type of thing I would need to turn my whole brain off in order to enjoy it
