brockolee★★★★☆AnimeSynopsis
The ordinary life of 17-year-old otaku Hajime Nagumo is disrupted when he and his classmates are summoned to a fantasy world and tasked with saving mankind. While his classmates are gifted with impressive abilities useful in combat, Hajime is belittled for only gaining an inferior transmutation skill that lacks any real offensive power. During an expedition in the Great Orcus Labyrinth, Hajime is betrayed by one of his classmates, plummeting him to the bottom of an abyss. Though he survives the fall, Hajime is faced with menacing monsters and misfortunes that send him spiraling into a grim nightmare. Desperate to live and return home one day, he resolves to fight for his survival—only to meet an imprisoned vampire he names Yue, who is also seeking to escape the labyrinth. Taking an interest in him, Yue and a few others along the way accompany Hajime on his journey to find a way back home, while steadily transforming from commonplace to the world's strongest.

cpelfe★★★★☆Animemroy13★★★★☆VerifiedEP 6This episode balances its tonal shift by introducing Shea, a high energy comic relief, which provides a contrast to Hajime's gritty survivalism and opens up the world beyond the confines of the labyrinth. That rabbit is still annoying though.
opsoju★★★★★VerifiedEP 1The first episode of Arifureta instantly sets a dramatic and intense atmosphere. You can feel the pressure and emotions right away, and the way the story is presented makes you curious about what’s coming next. There’s a strong sense of tension mixed with nostalgia for classic isekai vibes, but with its own unique twist. Here, you don’t just see the characters, you feel part of their struggle. It’s a powerful start that leaves you wanting more.
jeerox★★★★☆VerifiedEP 13a season ender that is a cliffhanger, finally a big reunion, and somehow Hajim,e suddenly got that strong aura like GOJO. The battle movement is mid, could be better. Well a great season ender with big cliffhanger that you want for more.
