Handyman Saitou is such a good show, the writer isn't afraid to give big flaws to every main characters and it shows why they need to be in a party together. Every single one of these characters are needed in the party so they can survive. Most of isekai stories in recent years have their party consist of an OP Protag that can do everything from magic, melee combat, crafting, healing, etc and then they added a weaker version of the protag that can only do 1 thing the protag can do. But it is different for Saitou, he is just a normal human being in another world, all of his skills are that we can also learn. But he utilizes his skills to such degree that he becomes essential in his party, and seeing him getting recognized for his hard work makes me feel happy too. Not to mention how the plot progression feels like a nuke when it's all connected.

And understandably as a normal person in a world where people can do all this crazy shit he feels a little insecure about what he brings to the table but the show keeps going out of its way to keep confirming realistically just how valuable he is to the party. He's not a badass, he has no special powers, but he fills in not only roles other people lack but roles they didn't even know they needed.

I think the only major flaw it has is how... random the first few episodes are, which is completely accurate to the source material. I don't know if this is true, but the start feels like a mangaka writing random one-shots in a setting with occasional connections and sequels until he figures out an interesting central plot to center everything around.

Even the Lord of the Rings movies have a lot of valid criticisms from the perspective of long time Tolkein readers, and they're considered masterworks of their own rights. Trigun Stampede is using a controversial animation style in going 3D too. That being said, I personally absolutely love the direction Trigun Stampede has been going. The fact that the characters have fluid animations that you rarely see in more traditional animation styles, everything is beautifully stylized, they put more of a focus on the hidden connections of characters to build the narrative earlier, etc. While 3D animation is controversial because of all the terrible 3D CGI, this is a clear example of where it's excels.

Reasons *Handyman Saito in Another World* is my Isekai of the season: 1) Refreshingly Trope-less - Other than Truck-kun, no harems, no demon lord threat, no slavery, protag skills are practical but not OP, etc. 2) Characters are well written and genuine - Character roles are RPG staples but their personalities are unique and well written, and very fun 3) Story Telling - starts out like a different anime, can be jarring at first, but does an excellent job introducing all the characters and explaining their personalities w/o needing to spell anything out, then fuses all together into a more consistent coherent plotline that handles a large cast quite well IMO. 4) Funny - It's funny. 5) ED is a banger - That piano is fire.

I'm not even a big isekai fan, but magical revolution, amazon prime the anime, stardew valley simulator, and handyman saitou are all legitimately some of the best new shows this season.

Campfire Cooking is more popular than it has any right to be. Aside from the cooking aspect of the show there's nothing whatsoever that stands out. 7 episodes in and no captivating story arc was introduced. I'm glad Garnt didn't talk about it longer... Eminence in the Shadow is another case of "why is this popular?" That crap has about as many followers as Spider. Negativ statements aside, there are several series of interest this season like Bungou Stray Dogs, Trigun Stampede, Nier Automata, To Your Eternity, High Cards, and even kind of The Fire Hunter. Recommendations: Back to isekai, it's unbelievable to me that none of the *good stuff* seems to ever get an adaption. While I love Slime, by no means is that adaption or the series a masterpiece in any stretch of the imagination. The three isekai novels I'm currently reading could wipe the floor with the existing ones: The Beginning After the End, Supreme Magus, Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint. ORV alone is actually different from all isekai I know with a setting unlike any other, unfortunately the writing isn't perfect because it had to be translated from Korean into English first. TBATE and SM are especially well written, while SM is very long winded with many unnecessary parts that can be skimmed through or skipped entirely. Still highly recommended though. TBATE is about an orphan who becomes king in a world similarly advanced as ours, except they also have Chi, in order to avenge his "mother", the head of the orphanage, who was assassinated by an assassin from a foreign country. After wasting his life in solitude, raging war against other kingdoms, and getting killed or whatever (hasn't been told yet) he gets reincarnated as Arthur Leywin. From then on a similar story to Mushoku Tensei unfolds. If the two deviate from each other later on I don't know, since I only read TBATE and have only seen MT's anime. There's more to his past as orphan, but it would be a huge spoiler. Best elements = • the writing • story told from different perspectives • the protagonist • high stakes • no harem The MC in Supreme Magus, Lith, is seriously messed up but for quite a few good reasons, in a much different way than Rudeus from MT. His character can be considered as neutral-evil, similar to Ainz Ooal Gown. So, long story short: Growing up in an abusive family, the boy Derek Esposito let's his father die when he doesn't warn him about the polished hallway and stairs in their apartment building. After the father dies Derek has to take care of himself and his dear younger brother, until his brother dies by the hands of a Hit & Run. From there it only gets worse. Derek is then after years of living alone I believe diagnosed with cancer, so as his last act in life he hunts down the killer of his brother, let's him suffer as long as his brother did in the hospital before killing him, and finally Derek commits suicide. Unlike pretty much any other isekai protagonist, Derek Esposito as Lith has a real goal in this new world that is linked to his existence as a whole. Telling more would again be a big spoiler. The 3 (!) prologues are mandatory and a telling sign of how long the entire series is... Or I guess many isekai are. Best elements = • no harem although several love interests + one serious relationship/romance much later • world building • ruthless world if you're into that • amazingly complex and detailed yet thoroughly well explained magic system • tons of very unique and distinct creatures all with their own ancestry, history, characteristics • few but likable characters • hatable characters such as _many_ According to word of mouth, Mushoku Tensei is beyond all of them, but if the novels are like the anime I'm very skeptical about the truth of this statement. Putting your trust in isekai fans is not usually... ideal... anyway, even though I am one myself.

Saving 80k Gold really blew me away with how much it feels like a literal fever dream. The pacing of both the plot and the dialogue feels like that way fever dreams just jump between settings and plot points with no coherence; the talking lucky-cat god-spirit-thing in a white void was surprisingly profound; the advice of the protag’s hallucination of her dead otaku onii-san is in-depth and presented in a didactic format despite being centered around some of the most disparate and complex topics known to man… It’s just buck wild, and while I wouldn’t say it’s *good* per se, the fact that it seems more concerned with just how far it can push the bounds of imagination than with its own quality makes me not care too much if it doesn’t make sense. I’m just along for the crazy ride; I don’t need it to be a masterpiece.

The fact that it was translated by the same guy who did the same authors other works (making potions! and abilities average!), does not help the coherency of the story either. He was... decidedly not good(tm) at what he was doing, and eventually caused me to drop all three novels as a result. (To be clear, as all three novels has been passed around a lot, I am referring to a particular one. Think it was the 'estellion' one as they has held all 3 projects? Anyway, it's part of why it was so tragic I had to drop them, as I liked them quite a bit before that and gotten a fair number of chapters into the story already. Then the one picking up the mangas being similarly poor at english (might have been same guy?), meant they [the mangas] never got a better translation either as ppl avoid 'poaching' projects) Might watch the anime adaptations when they are completed tho. Would be nice to see the story when at least the english is coherent. Though I doubt a single season will catch up to where I had to drop them... :/ And iirc the later chapters of the mangas has been readable (though I dunno if it is because the tl changed, or if the tl just got better after 5+ years), so yeah...

I was just wondering today when Garnt was going to release his Winter 2023 in a Nutshell video, and man I was not disappointed. Thank you, Garnt! I always look forward to these videos every season.

The Fire Hunter is my hidden gem of the season. Unique visual aesthetic, good pacing, and a nominee for next year's 'protect at all cost' category. Kind of quaint, and a little bit of animation jank (probably from stretching the already thin animation budget). But that only adds to it's charm for me. Too bad it's not getting any attention. (BTW best opening and ending of the season EASILY as well)
