| Novelist Misaki's lone series about a noble just walking around freely and having a vacation...this seems AT LEAST somewhat different from the typical fantasy. Hikaru Makishima's OP's is really OK... The noble of Lizel, as calm as he comes wanting to learn of the world that like an Isekai reincarnation trope he's unfamiliar of, in order not to get in trouble being his first time around. His hired companion of the Blade swordsman Gil, who accompanies him in his endeavors, like going to a guild and registering as an adventurer, and almost getting into trouble with the same ruffians who want Blade on their side. These two have quite the relationship going for it though. Hina Suguta's ED, I really quite like. If there's any fantasy slice-of-life show I want different this season, let it be this one with its chill vibes. |
 |
| Nice opening episode I like how chill Lizel is and how he just wants to explore the world around him. |
| This show is very chill. It can be good timepass show! |
| I need somebody who can love me at my worst No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst If you stay forever, let me hold your hand I can fill those places in your heart no else can Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim |
| This should've been a BL :( oh well, seems interesting enough to keep watching anyway |
 |
| It's not a BL. There were some vibes but it doesn't make it a BL. I don't think gay undertones need a tag because it doesn't make it a BL and I don't get why people are so afraid of the gays XD Watching something with gay or seemingly gay characters doesn't make you gay you know. Romance is romance. Undertones are undertones. Nobody gets worked up about potential Straight stuff going on and it's all the same stuff - the only difference is gender which in 2025 who cares. Being worried about there being subtle gay dynamics at play is kinda sus to me like some homophobia is at play. Seems like an alright show so far. Nothing special so I'll give it the 3 episodes to grab my attention a bit more. So far just bog standard adventuring isekai stuff going on. |
N☆  |
| Mmmm...since the shounen ai wasn't included in the genres...I think it's something similar to like a brotherhood anime maybe?cause I think I saw a red haired girl in the intro. Oh, phew. It's just some normal bro isekai anime, not BL (just checked the LN tags on NU and it's not gay). Phew. I can watch it then. Glad it's not g** lol. |
| Another chill one but hey that's not hurt anybody after all! This new adventure seems to be fun! |
 |
| I really enjoyed this episode. The MC is tranported from a different fantasy world into another, is very smart and knows how to go around his circunstancies. This one promise to be a good deal on this season 😊 |
Reply to Celibe
kinda gay bro said something like "what's mine"
| @Celibe in my language subs they translated as "my man" 😅 |
| I don't like the new slang, but I can't help but saying "Oh my gosh, he literally has gay rizz" over and over... I immediately clicked on the creator's page but there's no evidence of "BL creator did a non-BL thing and the gay leaked in". I love this! 😆 |
 |
| Interesting first episode. Was definitely getting some low-key BL vibes as well. Not going to affect my watching or enjoyment of the show, though. |
| Censorship is vandalism. |
| This feels like a BL, if that's the case I would gladly send this to the trash bin, but in the meanwhile I'll give it another try. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| I don't understand why there needs to be a debate about whether or not its BL. I'm enjoying it for what it is, not panicking about something unimportant. |

@phantomfandom I was having the same damn thoughts lol I was like why is this gayer than the actual BL that i watched yesterday?
And I fully agree with you on Lizel. Anyone who can bag a guy hot enough to be voiced by Yuiichiro Umehara is my inspiration.
Let the shipping begin

| @A_Ghost_Queen Yeah, this definitely does need the BL tag - not really for me |

| @KrowGrave It's because some dudes are so insecure that they're afraid seeing even a hint of gayness will make them start craving the D. Seriously people, if you wanna complain about something, complain about the trope-y town and lack of world-building. The fact that the noble acts different than your expectations is really the only hook the show has atm. |
| Lizel's got a mean, dark side to him. And he's quite possessive too 😁😋 |
       |
| Lol, he got just pat him easily like that XD |

Hikaru Makishima's OP's is really OK...
The noble of Lizel, as calm as he comes wanting to learn of the world that like an Isekai reincarnation trope he's unfamiliar of, in order not to get in trouble being his first time around.
His hired companion of the Blade swordsman Gil, who accompanies him in his endeavors, like going to a guild and registering as an adventurer, and almost getting into trouble with the same ruffians who want Blade on their side. These two have quite the relationship going for it though.
Hina Suguta's ED, I really quite like.

| @KANLen09 he didn't die, he himself said he was in a room... talking with subordinates... and 'poof' he just suddenly appeared in that alley. so this isn't a reincarnation show. unless he comes out and says 'somebody in the room attacked me...' later on... like an assassination or whatever. |
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.  |
| hmm. i'm getting BL vibes from this 1st ep. too many ikemen. they're everywhere. plus the discussion about 'history with women' left everything... and i do mean EVERYTHING up in the air with these two guys. let's hope they keep 'that' low on the priority list for events in this show... or it's a drop. i don't like em, don't watch em, but other folks are more than welcome to enjoy em... i'm not judging, i just don't like it. otherwise? gorgeous episode. the legs and feet are... minimal at best in many 'in-motion' scenes. so it is an 'above the waist' production... which simplifies things... but shows the studio IS cautiously budgeting time and manhours in the 1st episode... which usually is the big bang pow zoom episode to hook viewers. the fight-scene/confrontation in the guild hall was poorly choreographed and executed. the flying blade-piece just appears in-frame suddenly, view of the strike was a bind not an impact so how did the sword break? no animation of that. the bodyguard's movement wasn't fluid, he was a still that got 'slid into frame' from the left with minimal animation of his hair clothing and body. low-qual work right there in the first 'fight' of the show. not a good sign. the designs of almost everybody in the episode is detailed and well done, very few 'blob mob' folks... the studio THANKFULLY didn't pick one of the lowest quality 'group' choices, the 'faceless crowd' concept. literally nobody has a face except the glamour/central characters. the worst of all? the 'paper cutout' crowds. no color or one single color, just line drawings, truly basic bare-bones 'person' shapes, and zero animations. the crowds for this city are TINY in numbers compared to the backgrounds and settings/set pieces. this city looks gorgeous though! excellent architectural work and detailing and texturing and coloring! frankly just for the backgrounding and set pieces, i'd give this episode an A+ immediately! as to the story? this dude is TOO calm cool n collected... even in his own head! for this situation. so he's either a master of the facade/face... or he's got one crazy level of levelheadedness. selling his sword first off? truly TRULY stupid. overconfident. too trusting of the 'safety' of this city. unless his earrings and pendant are magical woo-woo items he really needs? or gut-wrenchingly backstoried heirlooms/gifts? he should have led with getting his green jewel and gold earrings appraised first. what's in his pockets? nothing of any value?? not even his 'strange coins' from his homeworld? even if as 'money' they're worthless here, the metal appraisal in and of themselves might have been of value. now if the dude has 'other skills' than swordplay? magic? hand to hand? suchforth... mhmmm... perhaps selling the sword was an ok idea. but initially, even as a show-piece or a cautionary image of somebody even half decent at swordfighting... he shoulda kept the sword. |

| This seems very g a y and I am here for it. Umehara the love of my LIFEEEEEE. |
| Anyone who watched this ep and missed the gay undertones (overtones really, they had the subtlety of a frying pan to the face) is gaslighting themselves hard. Is "brotherhood isekai" another code for gay? 🤔😂😂 |
