One of the worst anime of this season. Every single problem was solved without doing anything and the main protagonist lives a happy life without any tension from the beginning. Story was a bit good but the plot totally ruined it. Plus there was no need for the side characters whatsoever.
I won't recommend anyone to watch this.

@supriyo8799 I disagree that he lives a happy life without any tension. Shingo played roles in significant political conflicts occurring later in the show. <br /> <br /> However, I would have to say that Shingo's journey through the realm was certainly made easier because the king trusted his abilities and directed Shingo towards a bright future from the shadows.

I like this show but it's like the Entourage of Fantasy Anime. Main Character lives a charmed life and anything that goes wrong is fixed quickly and cleanly. It's not terribly deep or intricate. Just a surface story that has a satisfying bite sized show. Perfectly fine to shut off your brain for a bit.

It’s not a bad anime. It was quite enjoyable:)

But one thing really annoyed me:

The fact the main protagonist got isekai‘ed into this world was for the first 5min relevant and that’s it.

Imagine someone would have skipped these 5mins and they then would have thought: hey a casual fantasy anime.

Frikken nobles. Always trying to kill each other.. good little series with a poor noble son that’s gone op and even has to fight his own family in the process.

Pros:
The show was ok. I'd recommend anybody watch it if you like Isekai. A bit of academy and dueling. Some adventuring. A fair bit of focus on politics, social standing, and land disputes.
A little bit of "find the rice and miso" type stuff a lot of shows have.

Cons:
A harem is acquired by Shingo but doesn't have any ecchi scenes.
