Last Dungeon is basically watching someone who barely cleared Touhou on Lunatic plays on Easy mode for the first time · Waifora

Last Dungeon is basically a fantasy/comedy genre which tackles the overused tropes of fantasy genre. Instead of getting an OP protagonist. we got an overpowered (quite OP but not too OverPowered) protagonist who has confidence issues due to the fact that he is the weakest in his town happens to be a town filled with extraordinary people.

To be honest, the concept is not new but it has it's own quirks. The jokes are quite nice but they become stale at times especially when it was repeated for ad infinitum. I kinda don't like MC's denseness but that is because for him, the monsters of normal people are a common thing in their town which I guess I can forgive him for.

The pacing of the show is nice and not too fast, but it did felt too slow for the first arc but the rest of the arcs are decently paced. there wasn't any hint of rush (there's no way I am going to know if there are some skipped contents since I haven't read the novel myself) and the show did end on a somewhat good note (rather, it was quite an awkward end, more like anime-original ending), Anyhow, the show is nice and good but that's it/

I cannot recommend you watching this if you want animated action, it can be really anti-climactic especially when MC is involved. But, the last few episodes does make the MC fight seriously.

Overall, the show is enjoyable. it has it's moments, it's a bit cheesy and sometimes it can be down right stupid. but I like it. I don't hate it but I don't see this in a higher position. Rather, 7/10 is already a high score for this show. if you want something funny and does better with the fantasy tropes, there's always KonoSuba for that.

Last note: I don't know if I would read the novels myself but from the looks of things, I might... but I'd rather read something else instead.

Story: 6/10 (Story is quite unoriginal; it's also quite predictable so all the plot twist is kinda expected.)
Pacing: 7/10 (asides from the slow 1st arc. the rest is quite paced well..., the last arc is kinda forced but endings can be a pain to pace properly.)
Plot: 7/10 (It's a decent plot altogether; of course, it suffers from the illness all anime adaptation has, being incomplete. but it was indeed clearly given some thought; but it's not too brillian)
Music: 8/10 (to be honest, asides from the battle ones, I can't remember when music was played in this show, but that is a good thing since if you don't notice, it meant it was doing a great job. Unless this is an idol show; which isn't.)
Enjoyment: 8/10 (because it's quite a fun experience watching this...)

Average: 7.2/10 (good but I will forget this show a few years from now.)

My thoughts: ~~(to be fair, I am just going to type a lot just to fill the required number of letters AniList wants but yeah...)~~ Last Dungeon is forgettable and probably bear some similarities to KonoSuba to a small degree. The fights are good but only a certain degree... the characters are sometimes one-dimensional so you know them by tropes alone And the whole plot twists is predictable and unoriginal, but since this is a fantasy/comedy anime; I can forgive them for being too predictable. In short; watch last dungeon if you have lots of free time... but I won't recommend you watching it.
