Kamikatsu was so outside of my expectations for an isekai that I just fell more in love with each episode despite such a strong start. An anime I didn't even consider watching until half the season was over, I couldn't have fallen harder or watched those first 7 episodes faster! Our cast is immaculate with
I also wanna praise the artstyle, the funny CGI was always putting a smile on my face because once you're in on the joke you realize, oh Mitama, this is one of the funniest and high energy anime comedies. The artstyle is what I'd probably consider "begging for epileptic seizures" a lot of the time but honestly that's my style I have no taste besides pretty colors. The cuts to pixel art are my favorite choices for directing an anime besides the way that Monogatari cuts away for gags. Some might say that the pixel art is so they can be "lazy" but I think Kamikatsu isn't afraid to perfectly use the tools at their disposal to make sure the visuals are never boring. Plus if you are dissing it only because it's pixel art I think you're just boring.
The story and it's themes are put together so well that I don't think I could ever do better, and it's one of the reasons I want to experience more media. The story quickly goes down a path that you would never expect from a seasonal isekai and I can only give my highest praise for that.
As well the ecchi in this series is something that caters to me very well. The degeneracy that this series gets up to is some of the most cracked I've seen in a non-eroge and was so fetishy that it reminds me of how great anime can be when it does something most other mediums refuse to.
Voice acting in this series brought out the comedy to the insane level that it sits at, and the OP/ED are straight addicting, while also not really being what I usually expect from an anime.
Personally I think this was one of the best anime to come out this year in an already stacked Spring 2023 season, and I'd recommend it to only my most degenerate anime fans, but it's definitely a big ask and I know they won't be as into it as I am, but please give KamiKatsu a shot!
