Terrible story, terrible characters, terrible concept. Not even a parody.
One of the worst and most boring shows i've seen since past years. Sloppy in every aspect.
People call this masterpiece, epic satire, anti-iseaki etc. all look like this to me:

If you thought everything is a parody, how did you stand %60 of the show just being completely serious, trying to thicken the plot, being dramatic, being a regular isekai?
If you thought this is an isekai, how did you stand the fact that story skipped all major events, details, creating major plot-holes, no goal on the table, no character development, focusing on random events?
Acknowleding isekai cliches doesn't make you a parody if you just put everything straightforward. You ended up being the cliche.
Eventually, the series failed both being parody and being an actual isekai.
And no, this is not ""beautiful"". Refer to the image above.
Let's add elf ears and we have a new character.

Slight hair position change and we have another new character, they forgot to remove the beauty spot though.

Before I berak down the show, ask yourself the following questions.
Frst episode was not bad. The MC was weird, entrance was interesting, the show offered "beginning of something". And I was invested.
Then started watching 2nd episode, i kept asking "what the hell is going on" entire episode, i wish i just dropped the series here.
Our character hunting bandits with his OP magic powers. Wait, we knew he was hardworking etc. but when did he mastered magic? This is probably going to be detailed and explained in next episodes, i said.
Our character saved an elf girl, told a lie to convice her to join him. Then the organization he made up kidnapped his sister. Wait how something he made up became real???? We'll probably learn in next episodes, i said.
Then 7 humanoid girls in character's team headed out for a rescue. Wait when did they found 6 new strong members which mastered magic???
What the hell am i watching? Asking myself. Maybe they're trying to jump straight to the main story line skipping initial "boring" details, I thought.
Kept watching, while not knowing those 20 second explanations for my questions was everything the show had to offer. Then just kept watching thinking somethings might be resolved in following episodes.
Then school arc started, story slowed down, As the MC tried to stay behind, he was forced to come front. MC got girlfriend, watching them build a weird relation was fun. It was funny, interesting. I started enjoying the series again.
Then rapidly everything went downhill again.
MC's fake gf kidnapped, 7 shadows returned out of no where with a full plan as they already knew everything, MC fought a random ass guy for a full episode straight, beast girls from shadow garden destroyed some parts of the city for no reason, princess saved. Full chaos. Again I was asking myself, what the hell am i watching.
Then fake Shadow Garden formed, artificats appeared, new love interest researcher girl appeared, MC participated in a tournament for no reason only to be humilated. Then fake shadow garden launched an operation to the school FOR WHAT REASON? Again, I was asking myself what the hell am i watching.
Then, this is where it hit the fan. It turned out to be the operation leader of fake shadow garden was Pink Haired Girl's daddy. He created this operation only to steal the artificat from his own daughter's room!.

The story makes zero sense buddy. "Bro that's a parody don't overthink", then why in next scenes we're obligated to watch "girl's momma's tragedic death :((" portrayed so seriously? His dad dying so seriously? This is just ridiculous in any aspect you look.
Then plot holes and ridiculous random events keeps happening in the entire show. For example Princess kills his own daddy, no one knows why. Even after 2nd episode. No one knows why something MC made up became a real underground cult, even after reading the full light novel.
Obviously, the plot was full of holes, ridiculous, boring. But I shouldn't overthink over an anime that doesn't offer a strong story and just enjoy it without overthinking right?
But this is the issue, in first part, i took the show serious and disturbed by how ridiculous it is.
In the second part, I realized my mistake, thought everything happend randomly for absurdism purposes, didn't care about it anymore
But then, this time then forced to watch dramatic, sad, totally serious episodes fully straight, only to realize the plot holes are actually plot holes.
Show offers no in-depth characters, no good story, no good humor, no satire, no goal, no target, no good jokes, no epic fights.
Seriously, calling it a "masterpiece" aside, how could you even enjoy it?
