Some people only wants ultra adventures. BUT, appreciate the washing machine slime!!! That man's desire for a peaceful life, probably similar of what I would want to do if I could use magic. Have a vacation from my previous life, built connections, learn about something I'm passionate about, not worry about bills, debt, carrier or starving to death.
The delicacy, respect and care Ryouma shows towards the gods is very pleasing, they are not there just to grant stuff, but to learn from and have some snacks and drink some tea. It's super enjoyable to watch and I sat down twice to binge in one go, the story itself is more interesting than you might think on the first glance.
I do want to see the rest of the story being animated till the end, and most people to start enjoying isekais where even if the MC is powerful, he doesn't need to stand out for being just strong, but for being inventive and smart with the skills are granted to him.
It's not the adventure you want, but sometimes the one you need.
Do I think a romance with a girl much younger is okay, not really. Do I want a romance, not necessarily, but it is understandable when it happens.
Staying polite and humble is also a big part of why Ryouma differs from many other MCs, also learning how to fit into the new culture, common sense, but also staying true to himself and never forgetting about his past(hence the fear of becoming a black company owner). Japanese work ethics are very twisted and when you think, "it's not possible to be that bad as they portrait", you're being naive. It happens and way more than we think. Complains about being sick, asking for overtime and if you refuse, you're blacklisted because, you need to wear the company shirt and dedicate your whole life to them. Family is not a priority. Retirement being pushed every year further and further, of course we all dream that one day we'll die and be given a second chance to life a simple and carefree life. The medical system even if it's not crazy expensive if you have the health insurance(that is obligatory to pay), the staff is very outdated and usually don't think outside the box when it comes to think what it might be your symptoms. You can die if you don't express yourself and ask for further examination. It can be very lonely to live a life like that and that's how most isekais happened nowadays, not from just a regular teenager being a addicted gamer, but giving workers a second opportunity to actually enjoy life.
I think I overdid the rant about japanese work ethics. No regrets when it's true.
High Hopes for the next season, and glad that they are giving more opportunities to slice of life isekai to happen.
