Synopsis

Deemed a "good-for-nothing" for his low level and lack of a god-given Gift, Allen is stripped of his noble status and banished from the Duchy of Westfeldt. But Allen has a secret: he was a great hero in a previous life, and he's thrilled for the chance to finally live the way he pleases! His drama-free existence, however, is soon interrupted by a desperate encounter with his ex-fiancée. As a former hero who still possesses the incredible powers from his past life, Allen can't ignore someone in need—no matter how much he might like to! And so begins the new heroic saga our former hero never wanted!

Preliminary (8/12 eps)
This is the kind of show you didn't know you needed. Perfect background show for whatever you're doing.

Typical of Isekai Treasure (Call me vanilla I love these shows 😂) the plot is always the same, the titles are an essay, and you forget them one week after the season's over.

*HOWEVER*

When you're working full time and trying to do a Master's degree, you don't have a ton of time. This is the type of show you can make your dinner to, fold laundry to and even work on assignments to because you can glance away for like 2-3 mins at a time and not miss anything ...

Okay first things first, the anime adaptation is indeed ass. The animation quality is fall of seven deadly sins standard. So I'd recommend abandoning the anime and reading the manga, it's so much better, the characters are cleaner, the pacing makes more sense and you won't be constantly distracted by the choppy and distorted animation quality.

anime version 4/10 - too choppy to enjoy the story
manga version 7/10 - by no means the best thing since coke and bubblegum but it is significantly more enjoyable.

Since the platform demands more details, it's a typical power fantasy where the mc was too strong everyone got scared then when ...

This anime isn't bad because it has a bad story; Rather, it's bad because of how it tells the story. The single season of "DekiSoko" consists of what I'd say are two separate arcs, each being exactly 6 episodes; Because of that, the story feels incredibly rushed.

The animation while not bad or overly simplistic lacks attention to detail; Specifically, in a scene depicting blacksmithing, the blacksmith simply pounds the same spot of an already sharpened sword it cuts to black and that's the end.

Overall, the anime is far from the worst, but if I had the option id ask that this series be remade, as ...
