nnamdi★★★★☆EP 3Quite an eventful episode; there are a lot of things going on, so it's kind of hard to follow the main threat. There are some time skips that are hard to understand, but it's nothing horrible for the watching experience.
At only six years old, Noah Ararat, the thirteenth prince of his empire, could probably destroy most adults in his kingdom, which is a weird sentence to type but here we are. He's the thirteenth prince, meaning he's so far from the throne that nobody really pays attention to him, and that's exactly how he likes it. See, Noah was reincarnated into this royal family with two absurdly broken abilities: an infinite level cap and a skill that lets him absorb the powers of anyone who serves under him. So every loyal retainer, every sworn knight, every talented subordinate just makes him stronger by existing nearby. It's a wild power system that actually rewards good leadership instead of just grinding monsters in a field somewhere. But the real hook here isn't the combat, but it's the politics. This is a 12-episode TV series where throne succession drama runs underneath everything. Rival princes are scheming, noble factions are maneuvering, and Noah has to figure out how much of his strength to reveal without painting a target on his back. Think of it as the political layering of How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom mixed with the overpowered protagonist energy of Overlord. If you liked The Rising of the Shield Hero's blend of strategy and action but wanted more court intrigue and less isekai roadtripping, this one from studio CompTown might be your thing. It's sharp, it moves well, and the power absorption mechanic keeps the stakes interesting even when Noah is clearly the strongest person in the room.
This season covers Volumes 1-24 of the manga. Continue reading from Volume 25.

nnamdi★★★★★VerifiedEP 2Quite funny and easy to watch, the episode, Noah, as expected, keeps getting stronger, but the really good thing about this episode is the music; it was really great.
nnamdi★★★★☆VerifiedEP 1The first episode is an interesting first episode jumping straight into action; it doesn't feel rushed, and it is interesting anyways. The episode in general and Noah felt really generic in the bad sense, but with a correct word building, it can become great.

frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 12I wanted to watch more action but ended up being disappointed. I was looking forward to the coup but anw, Noah was really clever and OP and I expected that kind of ending already. Also, it’s kinda emotional at some point but the damage has already been done. If there’s gonna be a next season, I hope they fix the pacing and make a good build up of each character and conflicts.
jeysxjeys★★★★☆VerifiedEP 12This is getting intense. An emotional and brutal episode. I expected a good fight scene, but again, Noah's being overpowered and killed the vibe and hype. Great story-building episode. But the ending felt rushed.
frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 11The animation effects are really not giving T_T. It’s also funny to me that the Majesty keeps insisting that lol. And Noah is really clever, imagine being a counsel and still thinking a lot more than that for a young age is really interesting. The build up was really good this time. And the end was such a cliffhanger.
jeysxjeys★★★★★VerifiedEP 11Uhm, can I have some reasons too? I also heard it. But it's funny to me that they somehow have a mini reunion on the streets. It's a bit weird that Noah is part of the grown-ups' discussions. Noah's observation is sharp as ever. The last scene gave me goosebumps.
frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 10This was pretty good and not fast paced. Noah really has this kind and soft vibe in terms of people. Truly living up to what he said in the past eps. The lightning Prince Indra was kinda unexpected for me. You really can’t judge a book by its cover. The last part was a like a game or sumn i thought’s it’s changing the genre for a sec lol.
jeysxjeys★★★★★VerifiedEP 10Another interesting and funny episode. The action scene choreography is good in this episode. Great story-building and character-building episode. Something is new in this episode. I like how light this episode is, and at the same time, this episode is not the same as the previous episodes.
frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 9I think that was the pretty and good animation I saw so far. Huwawa is so pretty and really fairy like but her story was sad. Anw, the pacing in the conflict was kinda fast for my liking again. I think it lacks the build up which also kills the tension. Also, it’s kinda insane how his father gives away things like that every time and even the pressure to a young boy? Crazy.
jeysxjeys★★★★★VerifiedEP 9An intriguing and interesting episode from the previous episodes. The information was unexpected. That's why we haven't seen his mother after the first episode. Their way of life is kind of sad in my opinion. That's witty thinking of Noah.
frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 8What Noah proposes actually makes sense. I think that’s what people want since even irl people only thrive when there’s a good reward. The pacing was getting better and there’s a good build up too which is a great improvement. I also like how he thinks about the solution, like one step ahead kinda thing.
jeysxjeys★★★★☆VerifiedEP 8I expected a good fight, but yet again, it is one-sided. Noah being overpowered is killing the vibe of this anime. The government politics discussion is fascinating to watch. What I don't understand is why the maid walks alongside the carriages. Can't he sit beside the coachman? I also don't like when they dimmed the scene where there's a commotion on the street, but that was brutal.
frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 7The pacing is actually not that fast and the build up is good. It’s more on the side of politics which is actually good unlike the past episodes. There’s a tension but lol just as what i always said, Noah’s skills and strength kills the fun for me. And he’s insanely clever but that also sets the mood for what’s coming next.
jeysxjeys★★★★☆VerifiedEP 7Money vs money, that's how Noah settles things. Which I'm not against. This episode has good story-building. With that news, I don't think this will bring peace, it's the other way around. A great episode. I do like the story progress. Although I want to see a sword exchange rather than a one-sided fight.
jeysxjeys★★★★★VerifiedEP 6Noah's skills made the first scene. It could be interesting if they found it out in other ways. Noah's quick and good thinking saved them from rumors. I like that part. I feel bad for those kids, they don't deserve to be treated like that. The flow is going fine until the end part of the Emperor. That was fast.
frostsincere★★★★☆VerifiedEP 6I feel like there’s a lot of things going on here. There was a good build up in politics which I actually enjoy. But what looks insane to me is Noah’s strength which really kills the mood for me. I'm happy and proud for Evelyn. And the last part pacing was really fast for my liking but i think it’s a given from all the things happened in the past eps.
frostsincere★★★☆☆VerifiedEP 5The plot can be really good if it wasn’t too fast. Even those things with the soldier can be a good arc but it’s like reading a book starting at the end lol. Tho what i can applaud Noah is his way of thinking especially to his subordinates. That phrase he said at the last part actually held a value and says a lot about him. But the problem is he is way too OP.
