Except it is marketed as “In Another World with my Smartphone”
I want to start off the review with a message to whomever wrote the source material for this. Whenever you read critiques talking about “good main characters” they are talking about actually interesting characters with their own personalities and their own personal conflicts that they may even grow out of.
What they do not mean is a “good” protagonist who is always altruistic, morally correct and amazing, perfect and whatnot. Touya is an altruistic WonderWhite loaf and also a “good main character” if defined by a person severely lacking reading comprehension.
The entire show alongside its protagonist is bland and uninteresting at best and at worst some of the most cringeworthy content that has been made. The show is extremely formulaic with episodes following a very strict script going like:
Problem arises, it can be the most trivial bullshit, although it doesn’t matter as long as Touya is shown off as amazing and incredible.
Repeat.
The sidecast is nothing to brag about, they fall into 4 archetypes (Characters can have multiple traits):
Always talk about how great Touya is.
Now what was an exceptionally common trend among the show’s characters and general storytelling? Touya gets sucked off constantly. His testicular health is on the brink of collapse considering even the negative things said about him are the most backhanded bullshit but in the most positive light ever “oh he is so good and nice and he will help everyone so i fear he helps someone evil”.
In fact the entire plot of the show is made in order to inject more fan-service into the show (and make Touya look like fucking Jesus). The main plot of the show revolves around discovering some ancient ruins so called “Facilities of Babylon” that were created by some absurdly horny scientist before the world got destroyed by some golems that honestly appeared like 3 times in the whole season. Sounds fine until the facilities are guarded by motherfucking porn robots who straight up molest Touya.
Not to mention this plotline progresses SOOOOOOO slowly it gets introduced in the last episode of the first season. Currently it only serves to give Touya more tools to make him even more absurdly overpowered considering they contain straight up duplication machines and GUNDAM MECHS. (?????)
Now there is no reason to watch this show at all right? Wrong. Despite all the bullshit, this is an absolute must watch. No other show is as good of a baseline for absolute garbage. If there ever was a “You do not want to be worse than THIS show” it would be this. A lazy cash-grab has turned into the benchmark for the low scores at least for me, and that’s why I would recommend this for all the wrong reasons.
