In a world where monster invasions are rampant and frequent, being an adventurer in a party is considered one of the most desirable jobs for the honor and fame it provides. Wanting to make a name for himself, a young human warrior named Alvin intends to start his career by completing a low-level request for the guild.
While en route, Alvin is confronted by a magical bear and immediately finds himself in a pinch. As luck would have it, a dark elf healer named Karla approaches and asks if Alvin requires assistance—being seemingly oblivious to the situation before her eyes. After a discussion needlessly complicated by Karla's absurdly eccentric personality, Alvin somehow convinces her to help him. Unfortunately, instead of healing him, she accidentally casts a curse: if Alvin strays too far from her, he shall die.
Despite being forced to accompany Karla until the curse is broken, Alvin remains steadfast in his ambition to become a full-fledged adventurer. With a partner by his side, the journey toward his goal may grow easier—or harder—depending on Karla's whims.

I watched twenty-five anime this Spring 2022 season. Twenty-five, plus a few more that leaked over from Winter. That's quite a lot. By far the most I've watched in a season. To think that Kono Healer, Mendokusai would end up becoming my favorite airing anime, well, I can scarcely believe it myself. I enjoyed the first episode for sure, but there were so many high praising series alongside it. Alvin and Karla. What a pairing these two are. Alvin, a thirty something year old human, your average throwaway mob character that you see in any fantasy show and Karla, the cute dark elf, one ofanime's biggest ever trolls.
My initial thoughts on this anime were pretty positive overall, a humorous Boke and Tsukkomi comedy act, set in a typical fantasy world, as they go about their daily lives, traveling around aimlessly in search of glory and adventure, getting into trouble every now and then, befriending people and monsters alike along the way, etc. I went into this anime like I almost always do, blind, and very early on you realize that any sort of plot or character development will be minimal as the anime revolves almost solely around Alvin's and Karla's relationship dynamics and interactions between one another. It's a purely comedic show.
Three episodes in, I came to the opinion that this show would simply work much better as a shorter length series, as I was becoming increasingly aware that the comedy acts would either start to drag a little bit, or become a tad stale after watching the same humor for 20-25 minutes straight. Again, there's no intricate plot or incredible animation to sell the story, it's up to the comedy to hit it's mark more often than not.
Thankfully, episode three was just a one off dud and we were back on track when episode four rolled along. Every episode that followed, I found myself laughing more frequently, a stupid grin slapped across my face throughout it's entirety, I looked forward to an episode drop every Monday. The relationship between the MCs is the selling point, the hilarious back and forths, the deadpan, air headed humor from Carla coupled with the occasional scene of emotional vulnerability (a comparison would be Takagi-san losing her cool, though not as rare or impactful as that show, but still fairly adorable when Carla starts to blush), the stern honest responses from Alvin, the little mushroom creature that randomly stays around lmao, the "monsters" that act anything but monster like, the bizarreness of it all, it simply worked. The comedy act between the main pair is not as fast paced as say the comedy act between Kazuma and Aqua from Konosuba, there's many timely pauses and the dialogue itself is usually spoken at a slower rhythm, it's quite refreshing to see this sort of unique execution.
There's puns, playing with tropes, deadpan humor and more, a fair amount to choose from. One of my favorite scenes in the whole anime is when Alvin is in despair over losing his sword and falls down onto his hands and knees, the gloomy atmosphere accompanies it along with the low piano note, you know, the usual trope, and then after about five seconds it cuts to Carla taking a seat on Alvin and the back and forth begins. That shit was hilarious to me, I could not stop laughing.
The early episode drop stats must be fairly high judging by the overall score, comedy is obviously very subjective and this anime is most certainly an acquired taste, though Kono Healer, Mendokusai succeeded in tickling my funny bone with it's witty, dry humor and lovable main cast. IMO, this would tick a lot of boxes for an older audience, but by no means, don't let the score mislead you, If you are looking for a good laugh and enjoy absurd humor, then one should definitely try this out. 9/10 for my AOTS.

Recommendation: Skip it. Comedy is a subjective medium, so it isn't always a meaningful criticism to say that a show "isn't funny". What's funny varies widely from person to person, and something that I find laugh out loud hilarious might bomb with a different audience. I tend to give comedies a fair amount of latitude with this in mind. However, when I tell you that Kono Healer, Mendokusai isn't funny, I mean it in a different sense than that. This show is *structurally* unfunny, by which I mean the problem isn't the jokes themselves, but the technical construction of those jokes. There aresome good one liners and gags in this show, but even when it's funny, the jokes are constantly undermined by Alvin's reacting and screaming. Nothing kills a joke like explaining the punchline, and that's *all* Alvin does in this show. It's supposed to be like manzai comedy, which is hit or miss in and of itself, but the effect is just that Alvin is constantly stepping all over punchlines with his angry reactions.
The show has some other issues as well. Bits will often go on for far too long, with gags that should last 3 minutes regularly stretched into half the length of an episode, and it gets old fast. It also does not make effective use of side characters, with Carla and Alvin being the only regular characters for most of the series and only having one off run ins with other characters that don't come back until the end of the show. It means there is nothing to change the pace from the bickering between the two of them and contributes to the show's problem with episodes dragging or getting boring.
At the end of the day though, those issues would be easily forgotten if it was funny, but the jokes just aren't well constructed enough to get the job done. It's like watching a standup comedian that has some decent jokes but still bombs because they get the delivery and timing all wrong.

Not sure what went wrong with reception of this show, but I guess the main point here is: Don't Hurt Me, My Healer! is pure gag comedy and very competent at that, but if you don't like this style of simplistic, practical humour, you'll hate every minute of it. It also doesn't look or sound particularly amazing, meaning you either enjoy it for what it is or have no reason to watch it past the first episode. It doesn't evolve much or build much of a storyline, it just throws new, somewhat repetitive gags onto the pile. On the other hand, I don't think this showis brainless. It absolutely dismantles typical fantasy tropes in a way I found highly amusing and unlike those people in early negative reviews, I think the Karla/Arvin duo has its own appeal... Especially Karla who at first might seem like a useless idiot, but the show constantly throws you hints that while she's a massive weirdo, she's both powerful and smart under that quirky surface. She mercilessly trolls nearly everyone she meets, and can talk her way out of most trouble, but also shows extreme skill and magic prowess whenever it's genuinely needed. She has all the tools to properly do her job either as a healer or as a sorceress, but just refuses to do so, because it would be boring.
Than, Arvin is just plain mockery of the typical fantasy protagonist – a wannabe adventurer high on heroic tales, who was never able to grow beyond being a useless rookie. A bit of a Don Kichot kind of character, picking pointless fights to prove his non-existent abilities and dreaming of greatness that is fully beyond his reach. For Karla, he's the perfect trolling victim, but also a companion that is in no position to reject her help, while proper adventurers are unlikely to put up with her antics. And by the end of the season, they grow to understand and appreciate each other probably more than either of them expected, while still maintaining the comedic dynamic in which Arvin is theoretically the straight man, but actually understands the least about what is happening around him.
So, is this show some kind of hidden gem? Well, no, but I did really, really enjoy it nonetheless. I've seen quite a few gag animes that had no sense of pacing and were horrible at delivering jokes and this one, while very much not for everyone, was very consistent and knew exactly what it was going for – a full-on slapstick parody of typical fantasy shows. If you don't immediately like its style after watching the first episode, you should feel justified in dropping it, but if you do, it's going to be one amusing ride all the way through.

"I love being an enigma. Every time I'm tempted to respond to someone who tries to put me in a box, politically - you know, someone who gets on the Internet and says, you're pro-gun, or you're anti-gun - I stop and say to myself, 'This is great; this is what I wanted. I wanted to be the guy you can't figure out.'" - Brad Paisley Kono Healer, Mendokusai a.k.a Don't Hurt Me, My Healer! by the relatively unknown mangaka Tannen ni Hakkou is an adventure series. It's set in the fantasy world. It's also a comedy. But what this show is in one summarized package...well,it's high-class, expensive humour on a page-ly basis that when turned into anime thanks to low-budget studio Jumondo's production under wonky director Nobuaki Nakanishi's spotty track record, it's comedy in an episode basis that depending on your tolerance for humour, will easily make or break your experience in the amalgamation of how the jokes land in this show. It's definitely an enigma of a comedy show that a few will like, and many others will naturally hate.
Kono Healer, Mendokusai only features 2 main characters: the dark elf healer Karla and the no-face (or eyeless) MC adventurer Alvin. Both seemingly misfits with the former being a sarcastic girl with her own sense of peculiar humour and insults for days, while the latter may be at level 100, but can also be a total beginner whose adventurer life has just begun like any other adventurer in an RPG would by accepting low-level quests from the guild, defeat monsters, and then wash, rinse and repeat. Oh, did I forget to mention that in this fantasy world of theirs, apart from the absurd request that Alvin MUST stick by Karla at all times due to this "curse" that restricts his distance with her that results in death, all monsters act like monsters but have an actual brain for comedy-induced humour to gladly wait until both Karla and Alvin have finished bickering (because they won't ever finish)? Honestly, I'd sign up as an adventurer if there was this kind of fantasy world where humans and monsters can co-exist, and the only thing to get away with is just counterarguments with a healer that heals AND curses, and call it a day. It's flawed, but it also knows what it's doing to derive its own charm for that obnoxious feeling that you'd take or leave it for what it is. There is no story in this, so the characters drive their very own story (and thus the show), and this is the biggest selling point of the manga and the anime.
Karla is a dislike/hate-worth character for her implied catechisms meant to mock Alvin, while he is the butt of the joke, so it's playing on an even field, matching a healer that only opens her mouth and talks batshit about other people with an adventurer that most seasoned veterans will dismiss for his lackluster use. So you can technically say that they're actually meant for each other, intertwined not by the cliche red thread of fate, but by crass jokes and the supposed companionship in Alvin's adventurer journey, and this is important as the base foundation for the source material and its adaptation counterpart.
For someone like Aguri Oonishi to act as the titular dark elf whom never once shuts her mouth at hurling insults, I felt somewhat eased to say that she fits Karla's character to the T, being all that inquisitive and tomfoolery with all the mocking that has both hits and misses. And for Takuya Satou whom recently has VA-ed for Yuukoku no Moriarty a.k.a Moriarty the Patriot's Albert James Moriarty, his performance to sound the irritated and frustrated beginner adventurer, also works. And together, they make for a VA performance that so cringe at times, yet cultivate its own charm that's truly one-of-a-kind. This same effect trickles down to the OST, and I thought that it's interesting to show literal spoilers for the entire show, yeah that sounds great...NOT. I mean, for a no-name studio like Jumondo, this cost-cutting measure is just as predictable as it comes, and it wasn't surprising that budget is not the only limiting factor here.
What makes this show a saving grace, is that it's parody insults all the way, and it's very clear that is what Tannen ni Hakkou has penned for his very unusual manga that is like the "Spiderman Pointing" meme where both MCs can be quite powerful, or so much as they proclaim what they're made out to be: the unintentional clown vs. the straight man comedy routine that can get old pretty fast, and the tension and wordings between the sarcastic healer and the total amateur adventurer being a mixed bag of intentional comedy, kinda makes you think that it's such a waste of time trying to be popular when all you have is absurdity at your disposal. Yet, the adage of "beauty lies in the beholder" sums up this show in the most perfect of ways, and I really can't help to think that I'm experiencing something "unique", when in fact the majority writes off as being uninspired and unoriginal.
The crux is that even bad shows like this one have something good in them, and that's literally if you take this with a grain of salt for the nonsense humour that somehow clicks and tickles your fancy at times. And I have to say this show ironically works, it's just that you have to turn off your brain to experience crude comedy of the finest kind it's unironically good. Take it or leave it, Kono Healer, Mendokusai is an unique one in the bunch.

What I didn't know going into Kono Healer Mendokusai (henceforth Karla's show) was that it wasn't your typical anime. Each episode consists of our two mains playing off of each other in verbal wordplay while being joined by the guest of the episode. In short, it's Manzai. While I'm not as familiar with Manzai as I was back about a decade ago when I used to watch a lot of it, I can still tell what good or bad comedy is. Karla's show is very hit and miss for the most part, oftentimes within minutes of each other in the same episode. A lot ofjokes have this predictable routine where Karla does something stupid only for Alvin to very loudly and angrily rebut her, which works early on each episode but gets tiring near the end. Honestly with the way each episode is set up, the ideal way (which was what I used to watch most episodes) was to watch until the eyecatch, take a break and do something else, then continue until the next eyecatch/end. That way the repetitiveness of the jokes doesn't get too prevalent as the episodes go on.
To the show's credit, at least most of the jokes aren't too reliant on language puns or Japanese sociocultural references, so they do translate well into English for the most part.
But, as my score indicates, the show hits more than it misses. Most jokes are fine enough, they can land a smile or two here and there, but very few jokes did make me laugh out loud. Few as they are, they are still there and they're good enough to warrant a watch of the show. Sure, different people perceive comedy differently, but the show does get better and funnier as the episodes go on. Or maybe it's just the Stockholm Syndrome kicking in. With Karla on the reins, that may very well be the case.
I'm a bit of a seiyuu fan, and part of the main draw of this show is all the big name (some small ones too) that they cast as the guest of the week. Some pretty high profile ones you don't see very often nowadays too (when was the last time Fuchigami Mai was in anything that isn't GuP). They all turn in fairly decent performances, but I think Sugita was phoning it in with his episodes.
The last episode is probably the only one I really didn't like out of the bunch. It tries to go for a more (relatively) serious approach which leads to minimal Manzai moments and the overall story/narrative really isn't that great to begin with. I mean, the whole show literally is fantasy-based Manzai, the "Story" is just an excuse to get the gang into various different situations to comment on.
Manzai shows are a rare breed in anime. The only other show I watched that comes close is Maesetsu which was dreadfully unfunny, so at the very least Karla's show has something going for it. I definitely had laughs here and there, but 20 minutes is seriously too long for each episode.

This Healer's a Handful actually prompted me to write my first review. This anime is ridiculously misunderstood. If you like anime where every episode is either filled with quick jokes or mindless banter between characters with a sprinkle of surprisingly wholesome moments, you'll probably at least like This Healer's a Handful. If you want something with depth or an amazing story, this isn't the show for you. Personally, this is the AOTY for me so far. At least until Mob Psycho S3... Plot: Not important. Story: There is no story Sound: idk, it's forgettable and at its worst, it's painfully generic. The thing is, I wouldn't put itpast the studio to make it sound generic as a joke.
Animation: Mostly average, sometimes a little stiff even. However, it's a comedy anime made by a seemingly new studio (formed in 2009 from what I can tell. Credited with only 12 anime on MAL, with seven of those roles as producer, five as a studio).
Art: Characters aren't exactly pleasing to look at and the character designs come off as bland, but this works towards the strength of the show. Characters like Alvin, who looks like a typical knight, is actually just a loser. Carla, although she looks like the typical kind and patient healer character, is actually extremely rude and obnoxious. For what it's worth, I think Carla looks cute.
Characters: This is easily the best thing about This Healer's a Handful. Both characters play off of each other perfectly at the start, but it somehow gets better as the show goes on. There's not much development to speak of, but when there is, it manifests as something really cute, wholesome, or both. There were even times where I felt sympathetic towards Alvin. Most of the side characters like Mostly Bear, Dryad, Altargaia, and Thief are great additions and I almost wish they had more screen time.
Comedy: I can see why people wouldn't find many of the jokes in this show funny. If I were to describe the comedy style, it's like a lite version of a 21st century meme video with the way the jokes have minimal build up and the next joke comes just as fast as the last one. The first episode was the hardest I've laughed at an anime in a long time (Some of my favorite comedies are Nichijou, Joshiraku, Lucky Star, Love Lab, and Gintama'). With the bar set as high as it was in the first episode, the rest of the episodes definitely couldn't reach that level, but a few episodes came close. Especially the last episode. If you're looking for a heavy emphasis on building up a joke to then deliver a solid punchline, this isn't the show for you.
I've seen too many people criticize the show for having a bad story, unexciting plot, poor world building, etc. The issue with that is it's not fair because that's not what this show wants to be. It's not Attack on Titan and it doesn't want to be Attack on Titan. If you didn't find the jokes funny and you don't like it for that, that's completely fair. But when rating an anime, or any form of entertainment, it's so important to review and criticize it for what it wants and sets out to be.

Don't take me seriously at all, I'm a weeb. This anime is one of the best gag anime I've ever seen (as I've never seen gintama, the funniest thing to me was them comedies in the romcom animes). A healer that speaks in funny and a warrior that speaks in tsukkommi, never have I seen a better pair since oreo and milk. The dialogues are packed full of insulting jokes and irony but they does a pretty good job at moving the plot forward (if there's even a plot?). As the arcs end within 1-2 episodes, you get the full start and end within that time,maximizing the enjoyment value of the gag anime as it should be doing. (It also lets you drop the anime within the first 2 episode cuz you might already feel completed?)
I want to talk about the OP and ED as well; total bangers. The OP contained some spoilers about the characters that'll appear, but IMO they did a pretty good job at illustrating Carla's personality and Alvin's role as a tsukkommi machine. ED makes my ear cells happy so it's good, i guess.
Love the VA. Did an amazing job with the emotions and impact. God damn did I feel like I was watching a comedy anime - I mean it is one. Point is everything felt natural and in-character. Enjoyed every single episode (also the post-ed teasers are pretty funny as well, don't skip to the next episode yet).
Do watch it. Please don't drop it. It's wholesome?

Kono Healer, Mendokusai (2022) Honestly a pretty good show despite it being what feels like a definite non-return show. The show is pretty funny and takes an unusual style of comedy which is enjoyable. It also tries to be a normal adventure-style show with a little tiny hint of a tint of romance in it. The art is of good quality for the show's style. It is pretty consistent throughout the entire season. The sound is good, the characters are funny and well-chosen. The ED is pretty great. The characters mainly Alvin and Carla make for a dynamic duo which makes for a really fun showI have to say.
I would give this a pretty solid 7/10.

Allow me to tell you the optimal way to watch this show: Watched the first episode in subs and was ready to mark it off as a 4/10 mediocre attempt at comedy, but wanted to give it another shot in dub because why not. Didn't expect it to save the show, but here we are. The jokes work WAY better when they're heard, not read. The comedic timing isn't god level or anything, but I underestimated how significant it was being hindered by watching it in sub. I have a hunch that a good chunk of the 1 - 2 star reviews are because of peoplewatching subs. I recommend you watch in dub without subtitle to better enjoy the banter between our two """"heroes"""".
People have preferences, and there are a couple of things you should know. First, go in understanding that the point of this show is that pretty much everyone is wrong about pretty much everything. These are not people you would want to be friends with. Vindictive, underhanded, overconfident, and generally problematic. You are here to laugh at them, not with them. If that isn't your cup of tea, this isn't a genre bending anime that can change your tune.
Second, there isn't much story here. Plot points occasionally carry over to the next segment, and rarely continue across episodes. Not never, but rarely. This is first and foremost a comedy, and the little story there is serves as backdrop to that end. I don't find this to be an issue, but I understand people that do.
So, now you know to watch the dub and what to expect out of the characters and story. You watch a few episodes but are still failing to see any appeal. "What a waste of my time, I must be smarter than that reviewer chick because this level of comedy is just too far beneath me." You think this to yourself as you close the tab. But you've made a grave error. There is one more thing you can do to have as much fun with this show as I did: drink half a bottle of crown royal and binge watch it in a drunken stupor. This method has been passed down for eons, and will continue to save many a bad anime in the future.

A weird satire where an elf healer verbally harassed a noob fighter. Gosh this show was painful to watch. The jokes at the beginning were funny at first. However, it’s pretty much the same jokes repeated for the rest of the show. The worst thing is that they were just not funny. I barely chuckled and didn’t flinch a facial muscle. I know Carla is supposed to be annoying, and she was. However, she’s also cringe because of the horrible comedy. There’s even a romantic component near the end, which added more cringe to the mix. Since I hate the main characters, I also hate the sidecharacters as well. They are so irrelevant and not funny. At least they were not annoying.
Overall, one of the most cringe and unfunny shows this Spring season. Carla not only hurt Alvin, but also my ears. 5.5/10
CenozoicAnime
The easiest way to explain this show is that, this is a fantasy version of Nagatoro or Uzaki-chan. Karla is essentially the typical bully tsundere archetype. Admittedly, Alvin is much more enjoyable than the usual male protagonists of these types of shows. The side characters / monster of the week also pull their weight and integral to the show. The show is episodic and has no real plot. It is a satire on the fantasy genera and pokes fun at the stereotypical roles assigned to fantasy classes like the healer and warrior. Unfortunately, the manzai-style jokes may be a hit or miss for a lot ofviewers. When it is funny, it is quite hilarious.
While Karla and Alvin may come across as downright terrible people, it should be understood that this is the way the jokes works; Karla being the "boke" and Alvin being the "tsukkomi". The characters are supposed to be mean spirited and condescending towards each other, as well as intentionally falling into dumb predicaments and causing self-inflicted pain. The show should not be treated as an actual fantasy adventure and the characters as rational or normal.
It's not a great show by any means, but passable as an average seasonal comedy. Personally, I mostly listened to it doing something else and got the occasional chuckle or laugh. It's something to watch casually.

Today I came to do a review of a very funny anime that I really liked He is called kono healer mendokusai You have no idea how funny this anime is, it revolves around alvin a level 100 adventurer (beginner) and an annoying elf named carla Holy shit these two are perfect I've never seen a pair so well synchronizednow I have to say but what a motherfucker elf, but this is a positive point since if it wasn't for her alvin wouldn't do anything during the anime
It's very very good the interaction that this anime has with the people who are really watching it is as if this anime was made with the greatest affection in the world
The characters are very captivating the op is unique and very interesting
But...
I felt that from episode 10 onwards as much as the comedy as much as the plot and story had some issues...
fine with that
The biggest troller of all anime is the elf who doesn't heal, and a hero who doesn't even kill flies
were next to my heart
And look, there are several cute scenes in this anime
I will never forget how much I laughed in this anime
animation 9
story 7
fun 10
originality 9
characters 9
soundtrack 7
Op 9
Ending 8
With that I give a humble 8 out of 10
I recommend!!!

Ragnarök online the animation done right. A true hidden gem for those who can see the gem hidden inside. There is a story, but you won't see it unless you look for it. There are character development, but you won't know about it unless you read between the lines. It is very fun, but only for those who can understand this very specific kind of humor. Seriously though, if you like original Ragnarök online and are nostalgic for that great dating service, go watch this anime right now. Otherwise check the first few episodes to see if you're into this kind of humor and don't bother if you're not. It doesn't getbetter, but it also doesn't get worse.
It does get a bit deeper, but it is not very deep and it is not made with depth in mind.

Karla is probably the best worst girl you could ever ask for. Together with Alvin they're the best Manzai duo to ever go adventuring together. Seriously each segment of the show just feels like the two of them acting out a fully structured comedy routine as the fantasy characters around them just sort of watch and try not to get involved. It's great. It plays really fast and loose with it's fantasy world building, basically pushing away all tropes that don't fit the current setup for the joke they're trying to tell, sometimes literally. Making the adventuring party completely inept while also having them bumble theirway to success is a classic formula for comedic success. It reminds me of KonoSuba in a lot of ways, but the comedy as I mentioned is far more structured.
Things I found most funny were Carla fake-crying to swindle some gain out of whatever situation she was in, that broken half-wink, her general demeanor and Alvin being bad at everything despite having done it for longer than anyone else. The fact that his adventurer rank is actually (japanese lol emoitcon) was hilarious. They also got a ton of mileage out of the episode titles, which flashed by at the bottom of the screen in Japanese so fast that most subs you'll find won't even bother and you'll have to watch the episode previews where it shows up as a wall of text or just check some database somewhere that has them all. Some intern probably had a ton of fun writing those.
I'm giving this show a 9/10, really great comedy

You know that trope of the side couple that refuse to admit their feelings so bicker all the time? Ok, so change that from romantic to sibling and you have this show. Overall this wasn't a bad idea. In most shows that couple and their bickering would be a fan favorite. The trouble is they are always the side characters for a reason. Some things are better in small doses. Also it doesn't help that this show doesn't have a plot or anything. It's 100% just the bickering. Also it's one of those shows where the side characters are extra nice and exist to playcheerleader for the MCs.
I'm scoring this a 6 purely on the fun factor since plot and character are practically in the dumpster.
The dub it's actually fun. Most of the jokes are verbal and include untranslatable puns & word play in Japanese so they get lost in the japanese sub and all that's left is two very annoying characters. That is a painful 3 I'm afraid. The dub lands quite a few jokes making it worth your time.

I was reluctant to watch it at first . But when i finally gave it a go, it didn't dissapoint. The first 2 episodes are meh, but it picks up afterwards. The dry and morbid humour reminded me of The Amazing world of Gumball in a way . I laughed plenty at this one . The animation is very basic though. Really bad . There's not much of a plot really. There is however somewhat of a character development. This anime is the real PG-13 experience that other anime with the same rating don't give . If you go in not expecting any plot, asyou should, it's a nice watch. Otherwise, you will not enjoy it.

sick burns all the way. To see this wonderful show about a little Dark Elf insulting berating and doing everything to make the main character feel little and lesser is wonderful. I had so many laughs and I liked that dynamic and the main character was fun to see suffer. Just one of those fun shows where all of the monsters are pretty nice and it's mostly the main characters yelling and obusing , it has some cute designs made me chuckle a lot ,cozy time The world doesn't feel threatening it feels mostly like theme park. It's not like a real fantasy world. It's justfeels like a fun theme park. that's it to the relaxing feeling to it
and I really enjoyed Carla who's constant Burns to the main characters, her almost incapable of saying nice things without it being in some way made awful it's just so fun
certainly got some fetish parts to it

I think the show was mostly ok. I just didn't find the jokes that funny. The story follows a guy who is pretty bad at adventuring and healer elf girl who is just bad in general. They don't really develop much, most of the episodes are just a variety of situations meant to hang gags and jokes. YMMV on those jokes, but I found the humor rather repetitive by the end. The same stuff just kind of happens over and over again. The adventuring plots are varied and interesting ,but the humor tends to devolve into the same things. Most of it comes from the elfgirl misunderstanding things because she never listens to the guy or pays attention to anything. She's just kind of a selfish idiot who doesn't understand how the world works. In small does, that kind of humor can work, but it's the whole show.
I think the show is watchable if you like the type of humor in the first few episodes. I found the elf girl to be really annoying though and it hurt my enjoyment of the show. Maybe don't binge the show like I did, but watch 1 episode a week in-between other shows.
