The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash

Ivy makes a wonderful protagonist. An 8 year old on the run from not only a village but also her family wanting her dead is one hell of an opening plot point. With the help of not only the village fortune teller but also her past life, she works hard hunting and traveling across the land all on her own. Her being reincarnated takes somewhat of a backseat in the grand scheme of the plot but its helpful when it needs to be and has the added fun of occasionally mentioning something the doesn't exist in the world, confusing all parties involved. I can see some people finding the bell chime annoying after awhile but I personally didn't find the sound cue invasive at all. It worked well for informing me, the watcher, that Ivy is speaking with her past life and fills the info gap for Ivy knowing so much despite being so young.
Her wonderful companions Sora the slime and Ceil, a panther like beast, both help her during her journey by keeping her safe and helping her hunt and earn money. The support that she gains as the story progresses is great. She can at times make the adults [including captains and experienced adventure leaders] look foolish due to pointing out things the feel like common sense to the viewer but its a minor flaw overall in the show. The core of the show is Ivy and Sora going from town to town and meeting new people, good and bad. She meets plenty of adults that are willing and ready to help her, like Oght, who let all of the other guards know to keep an eye out for her. Lattrua and the rest of the flaming sword take care of ivy as if she were their little brother [she's hiding as a boy because of a bounty from her former village head] and make her feel safe enough to tell them about Sora and her stars.
When I finally saw Mila and her brothers of verdant wind leave quickly from the arrival of the other captain, I got the feeling that something was off with the group but the organization plot was fun to watch unfold. Its fun to see an active protagonist creating change in the story and not just reacting to the world around them. Watching everyone tiptoe around the traitors and trying to find out how far the corruption goes was thrilling! Seeing Ivy use herself as bait and realizing the verdant wind was using a version of the 'I have candy in my van, follow me' method was nerve wracking and did a great job of building unspoken tension. Beautiful animation and a stunning soundtrack to go along with it also help build the charming yet tense world. I thought it had decent pacing and gave parts of the story enough time to develop while never forgetting to keep moving forward. I'm hoping to see the resolution to her home village plot line! Hoping there's a season 2!!!
