EPISODE REVIEWS

Definitely not your generic isekai series, this one seems to honor the fantasy theme more. So far, world building and introduced characters are pretty good, still a lot of mysteries left to uncover. Overall good first episode, recommended for fantasy/adventure lovers.

As someone who has read the novel, this was a pretty good introductory episode, especially showing how Will's soul came to this other world. It was beautiful how the bonds between Will and his adoptive guardians were shown, too!

The visual structure and the sound design are good. Character creation is also good. The transition of the present and the past is smooth and is needed to understand the flow of the story. The training scene is intense, and the choice of background music is perfect for the scene.
