Wise Man’s Grandchild
Kenja no Mago
An unnamed Japanese office worker dies in an unremarkable accident and reincarnates as a newborn boy in a fantasy continent at war with demons. He is found in the forest by Merlin Wolford, the kingdom's most retired hero, who adopts him out of curiosity and raises him without any formal supervision. Fifteen years and a thoroughly homeschooled magical education later, Shin is preternaturally powerful in every combat discipline Merlin taught him and has absolutely no idea how to behave in mixed company. The series is Shin's first year at the kingdom's magical academy and the increasingly nervous response of the rest of the country.

An Anime I enjoyed throughout. It sadly lacks innovation but happily lacks many common annoyances too.
I enjoyed this generic-ass isekai more then I should have
It's generic and it's trashy but it infuriates me more than an isekai usually would.
Another Isekai that just hopped on the hype train with the same tropes and Overpowered Mc
