Despite standing at the zenith as the strongest exorcist, Haruyoshi Kuga sought even greater power, which led to his demise at the hands of those who envied his might. As he draws his last breath, he casts a spell that allows him to reincarnate and swears to become more cunning, hoping that all his efforts will prove useful in his next life.
Haruyoshi is soon reborn in another world as Seika Lamprogue, an illegitimate son of a noble family that prides itself on magic. However, his new family largely ignores him due to his lineage and magic deficiency. Nevertheless, the unbothered Seika leverages the knowledge from his previous life to make numerous valuable allies. As he begins to explore the true limits of his abilities, Seika must also be wary of the consequences that tarnished his past and avoid repeating the same mistakes.

The anime version of “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.” Winter 2023 marks the truly historical moment when the anime industry has finally figured out how to make generic isekai that isn’t utter trash. The secret ingredient all along was having a protagonist with some actual personality rather than a basement-dwelling incel. In just one season, we have such isekai protagonists as a professional handyman, a legendary king, or, in the case of this show, an onmyouji from a fantasy version of ancient Japan. Now, there is a meme that Mark Twain’s “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court” is the first-ever isekai novel. It’s nothingbut a meme, yet that novel and this anime have fundamentally the same premise. Take a cliched fantasy setting, add a protagonist that normally belongs in a completely different kind of story, watch how he fucks shit up with his out-of-place skillset, toolset, and above all else, mindset. Seeing a 19th-century engineer wrecking medieval knights with dynamite and electricity is the same kind of fun as seeing an oriental occultist wrecking medieval-Europe-inspired-JRPG with curses, ayakashi, paper talismans, and machiavellian scheming.
Just this single change of protagonist is enough to shake up the entire dynamic of the genre. Even if all the other elements of the story remain cliched, a unique main character completely recontextualizes them. For example, the protagonist regrets his previous life and wants to have a redo. Except he wasn’t an otaku shut-in that regrets masturbating to anime figurines, he was a mastermind occultist that threw his weight around too much, made too many enemies, and ended up betrayed and murdered in a political conspiracy. His version of “redo” isn’t to have sex, it’s to take the chill pill and follow his occult pursuit without getting involved with the fates of the world. Likewise, the supporting cast is just girls that make up the MC’s harem. Except he doesn’t treat them as a harem, he treats them as acolytes, that is, half retainers, half pupils, half daughters. I’ve seen so many unthinking complaints about the protagonist being dense in regard to one girl’s crush on him. No, he isn’t dense, he is 20-30 years older than her and treats her like an adopted daughter, and, I know this might be shocking for isekai-watching weebs, but when a normal 40-year-old man hears his 15-year-old daughter describe what kind of a man she wants to marry, his first thought isn’t supposed to be, “wow, she wants to marry ME.” Such recontextualizations are more than enough to make the story feel fresh.
What really brings it all together, however, is quality writing. Other isekai shows I’ve mentioned earlier still aren’t worth watching despite interesting protagonists because their writing simply isn’t good enough. This show makes its story work by putting intelligent thought into it. The very premise of the protagonist having to TRY to be chill already implies that it’s not an attitude that comes to him naturally, deep down he believes that with great power comes great responsibility, so he can’t walk five steps without trying to bring the dead back to life or thwart demonic conspiracies - attracting unwanted attention (everyone with half a brain suspects him to be some kind of a demon) and having companions calling him out on straying from the original goal. The harem members also have actual lives, goals, and motivations not limited to wanting to be MC’s property (ironic, considering one of them is a literal slave).
The slave girl’s storyline is particularly high-brow, the protagonist pretty much spells out, “you’re not obligated to suck my dick just because I treat you with basic human decency, your life could have plenty of possibilities if you were allowed to actually go and live it” (a polar opposite of the usual isekai incel mentality regarding the whole slave girl trope); and furthermore, the arc’s antagonist is a very nuanced take on the douchebag prince archetype (Joffrey Baratheon) in that he isn’t so much evil, as terminally self-entitled to a point where he genuinely believes he’s the good guy for “rescuing” (kidnapping) the slave girl. Interesting antagonists is one of the strongest points of the series in general.
The only notable flaw of the story is being backloaded - the introductory episodes are not nearly as interesting as the second half of the show.
9/10 for a formulaic isekai that is actually watchable.

I’ll say it, this was my favourite isekai of the season. Some may call it a generic trashy power fantasy, but I thought it was great and loved the MC’s personality. The fact he’s a grown man reincarnated into a fantasy world while still retaining the full memories, maturity and even abilities from his past life was enough of a unique twist to make it a fun watch. My biggest issue with most isekai is that the MC is reincarnated and is an idiot. Not the case here. Seika is fully aware of all of his previous experiences and is doing his best to avoid thefate he suffered in his past life, being betrayed because of his power. Instead, he opts to seek out other strong people and support them rather than being the focal point of this story. I like sly and conniving MCs who put themselves first rather than some bs morals. Seika will do anything to prevent going down the same path again. Including lying, manipulating and even killing people. That ruthlessness is very much refreshing to me as I hate goody goody two shoes paradigm of morality style MCs. I thought it was really cool how he befriended several characters in the story with the idea of getting them strong enough to deal with the threats in the world, rather than him. Seeing the mind games he played every episode was great.
Of course, even though you’ve got a somewhat unique MC, you still do have your usual isekai tropes, childhood friend/servant who’s in love with MC purely because he’s nice to her, magical school setting, jealous brother, rapey characters who are rapey purely to get you to dislike them, etc. At this point it is what it is, you know what you’re gonna get with an isekai setting and although things like this can get repetitive, I liked the world and mechanics enough to still have a lot of fun. I think the last 3 episodes was where stuff really started going down. The princess that was introduced was really the first person in the series who could compete with Seika mentally. Everyone else is pretty dumb in the story, so getting someone who isn’t an idiot was nice. I wish we would have got more of that. But these are overall minor complaints for me. I just like the show. It’s kind of basic, but feels different enough to hit all the right spots. Plus, I just love isekai. Sue me.
Animation is pretty mediocre here. Luckily, there’s not a lot of it to speak of. Most of the fights are just seika using his summoning abilities so it didn’t stand out too much. Art style is your usual fantasy style, nothing to write home about, but not bad. Pacing is pretty good, I haven’t had a chance to read the LN yet, but from an anime perspective nothing feels rushed or anything. I think if anything the tournament arc felt a little slow.
Saikyou Onmyouji was great for me. It didn’t reinvent the wheel, but as an isekai lover it ticked all the boxes I would look for in the genre and is a good watch.
Saikyou Onmyouji gets 9 out of 10.

What is wrong with the anime industry for real? This season honestly sucked. This particular anime has not been as bad as others, but still, the industry is going downhill. I like isekais and generic shows, but when something is overused, it just gets old. The art is mediocre, the setting is generic, and the main character... let's just say I had good hopes for him in the first few episodes, but in the end, they made him act stupid, generic, and boring. The last episode was just okay, with not-so-fancy effects on a very tight budget, everyone lived happily, and no one was killed.I'm tired of animes like this. If it weren't for shows as terrible as this one, they could invest their budget into making good anime or creating sequels to popular and interesting ones like Re:Zero or Konosuba. Instead, they're literally wasting money on below-mediocre shows that no one will watch again or even after a few years.
If you want an interesting show to watch, or one that isn't too serious, or at least one you'll enjoy to some degree, then this show isn't for you. So, who is this show for? What are the otaku demographics? I don't know. I would probably drop it if there was an interesting show this season. I can't even imagine Gigguk, a trash isekai anime lover, watching this garbage.
Save your time, go re-watch some actually good anime, and skip this one.

I see that the One Punch Man shpiel has become hugely popular lately. Truth be told, it’s just about the only way to give a true overdog protagonist any kind of meaningful conflict. I am, of course, referring to the trope of having an overdog protagonist pose as an underdog – for whatever reason, whether by accident or design, theirs or someone else’s, the larger cast of the story does not recognize them for how powerful/competent/talented they really are. In this particular case, the conceit is that in his previous life, our MC has become the most powerful Japanese exorcist, called and onmyouji, in history. Hebelieved that if he obtained overwhelming power, nothing would be able to threaten him anymore, and as a result, he could live a peaceful and happy life without having to lose anything or anyone. Alas, though indeed no external enemy could threaten him anymore, the seeds of enmity and jealously were sown among his own allies, turning the people closest to him against him, eventually ending with his assassination. As he drew his last breath, he cast a spell to ensure his reincarnation and vowed to live more discreetly in his next life, to hide his true power, and live a quiet life as a nameless nobody among the nameless masses.
You are to, under no circumstances, make the mistake of trying to ponder the philosophical themes of the show. Is it safer to be weak and harmless or strong and dangerous?
In a sense, it’s basically a less inspired and more serious version of Eminence in the Shadow, that’s if you accept the claim that Eminence is parodic in the first place. Exorcist in Another World is nowhere near serious enough of an artistic work to warrant even a single solitary second of your intellectual labor. The premise is merely a vehicle to create an environment that lends itself to antagonists underestimating the protag, which sets them up for scenes of more or less satisfying comeuppance – nothing more, nothing less. Take it for what it is.
Point being, if you enjoyed Eminence, and if you enjoy overdog isekai stories at large, you will have a decent enough time with this show. If not, then do not waste your time. It really has nothing to offer outside of the niche appeal of its genre.

This is a standout anime that is an immersive and enjoyable viewing experience. From the very first episode, the series introduces us to an intriguing premise: a skilled exorcist, reborn in a parallel world and it takes us on an exhilarating journey filled with mystical adventures. One of the anime's strongest aspects is its well-crafted storyline. The narrative unfolds with a perfect balance of mystery and revelation, which kept me hooked. The creative exploration of the supernatural elements adds depth to the plot, making it more than just a typical isekai adventure. Visually, the animation of this anime is stunningly detailed, landscapes and meticulously designed characters contributeto the overall aesthetic appeal.
Character development is another noteworthy aspect of the anime. The protagonist's journey from a seasoned exorcist to navigating the challenges of a new world provides ample opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Supporting characters also receive attention, each contributing uniquely to the overarching narrative.
The series successfully incorporates humor into its narrative, offering well-timed comedic moments that serve as a refreshing counterbalance to the more intense and dramatic scenes.
This series stands out with its compelling story, captivating visuals, and a diverse cast of characters, making it a memorable and enjoyable experience. 10/10 from me, I would love for it to get a second season.

I can't speak for everybody here, but as someone who is tired of generic isekais that feature nothing but sex and harems, or edgelord main characters whose entire existence is to get laid, this show really came out of nowhere to absolutely blow everybody away in how fun it was to watch. Keep in mind that this show is oddly rated a 7.1 currently as I write this review on my anime list. This is the same website and people that rate a lot of other mediocre stuff extremely high. So, personally, I always am very skeptical of the ratings here. This show is theisekai that you've been wanting to watch that does not obsess about sex and harems and women the entire time. The main character was a successful and extremely powerful exorcist which is basically a magic user in his time period which resembles something like ancient Japan. He uses incantations or chanting and can cast extremely powerful spells, summon monsters from different dimensions, or even give people curses it's a very interesting power system, it's not just generic stuff that you've seen a thousand times.
The character, whose name is Seika, has an extremely cool and chill personality. He's a new game + Souls/Elden Ring player starting the game over for the 2nd time with all of his abilities. He has a sort of arrogance that you would get from being powerful but he's not so arrogant that he's not fun to watch. He's kind of a nice, kind, chill guy who really just wants to relax and just so happens to be extremely powerful. His whole goal is to come back into this life and not have to do that much and to let somebody else take the responsibility of being the strongest in the world. Sure It's not season 2 of Attack on Titan complex and deep but what is? Considering how bad most isekais are and how bad honestly most animes are that are released now in general, the fact that this has a 7.1 is an absolute hilarious and ridiculous joke. This anime is significantly better than a 7.1 show. This anime does not follow the generic tropes and problems that most anime face today, especially in the isekai genre. It avoids all of those by avoiding the obsession with sex, harems, women, ecchi, and all the other nonsense that people are tired of seeing at this point. There's no stupid stuff like vending machines or being reincarnated as brooms or underwear or anything like that. You have a cool main character casting cool spells, fighting cool enemies with pretty good music, and a pretty interesting power system without any of the weird stuff in between. That alone in the current state of anime is worth at LEAST an 8 and I don't care what anybody else says about it.
This anime is really successful and popular on YouTube as well, which I find funny because people love to watch the clips. People have been saying "where's the second season, where's the second season" over and over again. And yet, when I came to my anime list, surprisingly, it had somewhat lowish reviews, primarily because I feel like people here just need something to attack when there's so many more mediocre anime that come out than this every season and somehow are so rated around where this is rated. That is absolutely ridiculous. This anime shocked me and most other people that I've seen who have saw it because nobody expected it to be as good as it was or to be as popular as it has become. And I believe that time will prove me right.
As the second season comes out and I believe the series has progressed, the show I believe will get more popular and then eventually it will develop a huge following and everybody will say that they liked it in the beginning like many other anime that have come out. Not every anime is an absolute banger hit from the first season. A lot of things need two or three seasons to get going. That's not enough time for most of them to build into what they're actually supposed to be. That being said, this anime showed me enough in just 13 episodes that I personally want to keep watching beyond that. I am much more interested in exploring the powers of this system and this world than I am a lot of other things that I see out there.

This show is easily one of the most underrated anime of all time. It really is damn good. I think a lot of folks write it off early because it's isekai and with a harem theme (two of my favs to be fair), but that aside- it is extremely well executed and is unique enough to be its own. The short premise of the show is that Haryushi Kuga is the most powerful and OP mofo ever, and he is reincarnated into this world as Seika. Luckily, nearly all his abilities/magic carry through to this world too, so yeah he is an absolute badass. But he'salso trying to not meet the same fate as his old life- so he tries to enjoy the mundane life as much as possible without showing off his powers. He does this by manipulating people and events so he doesn't stand out. Some of it is pretty clever. However, Seika being Seika- and that he's simply too kind of a person, as the story progresses it gets tougher and tougher to really hide who he is.
Speaking of the plot, it is amazing. First of all, the show does an great job at pacing. The plot unveils itself and the more you learn, the more you want to know. Seika and his friends are....special, but that's to say the last. There is a twist in the show that I absolutely love and why it got ranked so high. I love these types of unexpected events, so yeah- the plot is really good.
The star and reason the show is so good is of course Seika. He's not your generic average run of the mill isekai MC. No. This dude is his own man. He is experienced and cunning. He is powerful. Yet he is kind and generous. He wants to protect the people he cares about. The show does a great job showing Seika's inner conflict of what he should- if he should reveal his true powers to the world or not. Oh and by the way- when Seika throws it, it is absolutely badass. This dude's magical abilities are god-like, I kid you not. I really enjoy him going ham on those deserving of it. How about the rest of the cast? They're okay. Most are forgetable, but at least they develop two of his harem girls- Yifa and Amyu. I actually really like them, especially Yifa. You get to see her resolves grow.
It really is a shame this anime never got a second season. I really want to know what happens next. The story is THAT good.
So do I recomment his anime? Hell yeah. Watch it. Love it. Thank me later.

I really liked this anime for a variety of reasons. Some of them (while keeping at as short as possible, considering no one likes to read long reviews, including me) are: (I KNOW THIS LOOKS LONG, BUT IT IS IN POINT FORM) 1. It is not the generic isekai that you see all the time. 2. The protagonist actually has some personality compared to all those same old cliche isekai protagonists. 3. This anime actually has some plot, while keeping some of the isekai trademarks alive (academy, demons, adventuring, dungeons, magic, elves and dwarves, etc.) 4. The anime has good pacing, and does not always rely on "thepower of friendship" but friendship is an important part of the show
5. The protagonist is not a complete perv, but there is still possibility of there being a harem (I have not read the manga). Right now, to me, the most promising ones are a childhood friend/servant, and the other one is a friend. Btw, this is one of the very few rare isekais where there is no flashing, but still interesting female characters who are actually useful in the story for once.
6. The protagonist is definitely overpowered, but the fights are still interesting (I do not want to put any spoilers, so can't get into the deets)
7. Demon King and Hero trope is here, in case you are someone who likes it. Just know, this isn't your typical demon king or hero saves the day kind of anime.
8. This is very similar to how many donghua animes are, which will be interesting for those who loke to watch donghua, or who wants to get into donghua but are still in the considering period of it.
9. The mc is not that perfect, everybody's favorite, every girl's love interest kind of guy, nor is he into saving everybody in his world or "their smiles." He is... well, different is all I can say without spoiling the anime.
10. MOST IMPORTANT: I have not yet seen a single plot like this in any anime yet; excluding the isekai trademarks and some of the tropes.

Hi guys! I have never written a review on any of the animes I've watched. But, I have to write about this thing because I do not want anyone to see this idiotic piece of trash. The beginning was well and good. But as the story progressed, it became more and more senseless. I am here after watching the 8th episode. It was the worst ever episode of any anime I have watched till now. The MC is idiotic and has no basic sense at all. It feels like watching a toddler trying to solve algebra problems. He is a reincarnate but still has noIQ at all. Another major problem is story is boring and has no progress at all. A whole season is just wasted trying to do nonsensical work. On the outside, it may look like OP MC is enough for us to watch this anime, but on the inside, even OP MC could not save this anime from being given a horrible rating. I respect everyone's thoughts and wishes. If you want to try your luck, you can. But I would never recommend this piece of trash. It's just a waste of time and effort. I did not want to complete it but I did because I never leave anything incomplete. It is with a very sad heart I tell you all, this is never to be recommended to anyone, even if they are very much free on time.

TL:DR 1 out of 10, if you've seen the meme of the bunny girl getting vored, then you've seen all this generic, by the numbers, cookie cutter isekai has to offer. The long version, though this garbage really doesn't deserve it. Generic looking Isekai protag #753641 gets merc'd in his own world for being too OP, then gets reincarnated into a new world with all his powers. No stakes, no tension, no learning anything important along the way. Every fight ends with the exact same @$$-pull OP nonsense with the littlest semblance of a plot. The rest of the cast may as well be window dressing,even the h3nt@i artists don't care about these nothing burgers. You'll forget their names by episode 3 and know them only by the bland ahh archetypes they fulfill.... poorly.
The music is nothing to write home about and the animation would've been considered mediocre in the 2000's.
It's the worst kind of bad, at least we can laugh about how goofy something like Mars of Destruction is. This is just slop, I promise you won't remember a gd thing about this bargain bin trash 2 months after dropping it. Don't make the same mistake I did, avoid this nothing burger.

Before I started watching this show, I read several reviews about how bad it was. But I still persisted on watching it because I liked the plot and the whole Exorcist in Magic world thing. But that was a grave mistake. I should have listened to the reviewers. Pro +Good art and animation +Decent Romance (with the yellow haired Slave) Con -Extremely bad plot development -Extremely bad world building and magic system -One of the worst climax I had witnessedNow, this review is mostly just my ranting rather than a proper review. I just finished the show and I just couldn't hold back myself from criticizing it. It's probably because I went against the public opinion to watch this series because I liked the settings. But was disappointed in the end. I'll try my best to avoid major spoilers (But there is nothing to spoil in the first place, it's just a generic Isekai)
Plot: Most of the plot just doesn't make sense. To start off, the MC is as powerful as a God, there is nothing he can't do. He is literally immortal and can even bring the dead back to life. Yup he can cast Rinne Tensei without any cost or efforts. So how the heck did he die in his previous life!?? Anyway, he got reincarnated and wants to live a life as a weak person, because he doesn't want to attract too much enemies. But in the next scene, he "stages" a fight in front of everyone to show off how powerful he is, just so he could join a magic school! Note here that he doesn't have any magic power and there is no reason for him to learn about magic in the first place. Even after 13 episodes, I still don't get why he wanted to join the magic school.
Character: MC is just retarded and he had constant mood swing. He doesn't even know what he want to do, or why he does what he does. And FYI, the MC ain't some teenager from earth who got hit by Truck-kun. He's an old teacher with several disciples, and already has a wife in his previous life. But the Author probably forgot this mid way, so you'll never see the MC acting wise or respectful in any of the situations. The remaining characters are all just common Isekai topes like the Red haired Tsundere, White haired Kurudere, Half-elf slave, etc. But those girls and their backstory are are only things that kept me watching till the end.
Now, the thing that got me infuriated was the Climax aka the last 2 Ep of the series. If you are planing to watch the series anyway, I suggest you to just skip the last 2 eps, that's if you still want to keep your sanity intact. But here's a summary of what happens in Climax: The demons and humans had been in harmony for a very long time and both of them wants to continue this peace. But the birth of the Hero (Red haired Tsundere) after several hundred years causes the balance of power to be broken. Neither the Human Kingdom, not the Demon Kingdom wants the War, so both of them decides to get rid of the Hero (who threatens their peace). Now, the MC (if he had even a shred of wisdom) could have resolved the situation in many peaceful ways. But he decides to annihilate the Demon Embassy and slaughter hundreds of (innocent) human knights to rescue the girl. Not even considering the impact it could have on their family, friends and relatives. The story ends with both of them eloping into some neutral lands after escaping from the battlefield. And the other 2 girls were also waiting in the neutral lands for him. A perfect harem ending.
TLDR: This story felt like it was written by a middle school dropout who had social phobia and hated his family for no reason. The series is about himself fantasizing about world domination and being surrounded by harem.

Misfit of the Demo... Magic Academy, aka. Saikyou Onmyouji no Isekai Tenseiki, copies story and character arcs from a dozen different highly rated anime, and surprisingly, manages to sew them all together into a solid, coherent show that stands on its own two feet. Despite bringing next to nothing new or unique to the table, there's a lot to love about an anime that reminds you of the best parts of good shows from the past. Animation / Art / General Visuals - 8/10 ----------------------------------------------- The show looks pretty nice. The animations are nothing to write home about, but the art is nice and clean, setting and backgrounds aresolid, and magical effects can even be called straight up good.
Combat coordination in regards to physical combat is lackluster, but magical effects make up for it and in general are enjoyable to watch play out.
Sound / Music / Voice Acting - 7/10
------------------------------------------
Fairly standard anime stuff. I did quite enjoy the emotional ending tracks.
Story - 8/10
-------------
If you're looking for a unique story, you've come to the wrong place. However, don't let that get you down.
This anime features a story that's surprisingly good as a whole even if not unique, because it manages to grab all the important bits of other successful shows and mixes them together into something that ticks all the right boxes when it comes to Fantasy Isekai enjoyment.
The premise of the show might be the slightly more uncommon one among this genre, namely the Isekai aspect. Our protagonist chooses to re-incarnate himself, but ends up landing in a different world. The best parallel would be with the show Misfit of the Demon Academy, except in that show the MC landed in the same world.
That tiny curveball aside, the story features our MC growing up in the cliche noble household, learning to embrace his powers once more and adapt them to the new world, we get a low-key romance story with a childhood friend, we get sibling rivalry, we get a School arc, a School Tournament arc, we get an overarching story underneath that promises grand adventures and yeah... it's nothing you haven't seen a hundred times before. But I think it's all pretty well done, they understand the audience and gave us exactly what we wanted.
The ending of the show also throws a few interesting curveballs and makes a solid landing. You won't be blue-balled with a cliffhanger, but there's plenty of room for sequels.
Characters - 8/10
---------------------
The cast isn't large, but I find them all likeable. The MC is overpowered, confident, competent, intelligent. He knows what he wants and how to get it. Few things surprise him. It's always good to see MC's that aren't fumbling through their entire existence. And despite being overpowered, he isn't omnipotent and has to rely on all his skills to get what he wants.
The show features a small harem of secondary characters, but they're decently developed. They all have their background arcs, we learn about their personalities, a bit of their history, we see them act properly in character, and despite the obvious romance undertones, the show never pushes its welcome and keeps it reasonable. No girl is falling straight up heads over heels for the MC, which is nice to see. Despite how competent he is, I'm tired of every woman wetting their panties the moment they see a decent male. The girls are also very competent themselves which I also favour highly. Too many damsels in distress is boring.
---
Total - 8/10
---
Saikyou Onmyouji no Isekai Tenseiki may very well be the very definition of cliche when it comes to Fantasy Isekai, but I think there's a lot of enjoyment to be had from it. Not every show needs to try to re-invent the wheel and risk failing miserably. It's okay to copy the good stuff.
I'm not going to be angry if after eating a nice cake, someone gives me another nice cake. Like sure, maybe I'd want Ice Cream the second time around, but cake is cake.

When this anime was broadcast, I didn't expect anything good from this anime at all I thought this would be another Isekai Fantasy anime with the characters who make Harem in his new world. So I decided not to watch it. But when it was released I tried to get rid of that thought and watched it people say it's not good to judge something just by its cover. And what do I get? Wow... This is the anime that I like, the main character is strong but doesn't want to stand out. That's the type of character that I like, although I saw other comments thatthe MC is some crap that says he wants to live an ordinary life but shows his strength. So what's wrong? I don't think so, what's wrong with showing strength to the enemy to protect his comrades? Precisely the character that I don't like is that he has power and is able to save her but he doesn't do it it's a Naive character that I hate.
Unlike other anime where the MC thinks too much about acting or because he feels constrained by the past he gets confused and wastes a lot of time on it, here the MC acts fast no matter what happens and there isn't much debate, the important thing is he does what he should do even though it has its own risks
Additional review, after rewatching it for the 3rd time, there are some points that I find boring and uninteresting.
First the storyline is about Amyu, here they are both trapped but the problem is resolved too quickly, not only that, the MC spends a whole school year without many performances.
The second drawback is the NPCs, as we know schools are places with lots of NPCs, but most of them seem to be non-existent and only appear a few times.
Third, the past of the fake hero, this part is also quite boring, I think it's better to show the MC's past than to show an unimportant past.
Fourth, the maids recruited into the Harem, this part is probably the most annoying, so interested in the maid? To the point of trying various ways to get her? A typical prince who is too stupid, even after he knows he has been lied to, he still does other stupid things like fighting Seika who clearly has great power.
Nezzuji
The unoriginal and emotionless Isekai, by definition, is starting to seriously wear me out with these works that bring nothing to the industry. This entire piece is overdone and repetitive. The only thing that sets it apart is the past of Seika, its main character, but this aspect is underdeveloped in the plot, even though it was, for me, the only idea with potential in this work. They didn't even bother to play on this and make it an important element in the plot and story... Speaking of the plot of this anime, let's talk about it: There, I'm done. Nothing more to say about theplot of this anime. Like any good trash Isekai, there's no long-term plot, no specific goal or real objective. We simply follow the main character going from place to place without really knowing why in the end.
Like any good trash Isekai, they'll do everything to make you love the main character with fanservice by giving him some "badass" moments where he'll show that he's the strongest and can beat everyone. But OH, we're in a trash Isekai, so nothing serious should happen to the protagonists in the end. And if the villains are humans, they'll come back to life; if they're monsters, it's okay, we can let them die!
Like any good trash Isekai, you'll have recyclable and reusable backgrounds, lifeless settings seen in 4,623,745,623 other animes, characters without significant distinguishing elements. Seika stands out slightly due to his past, as I explained at the beginning, but it is poorly utilized.
The animation isn't disastrous but rather flat. It's worth noting the attempt at "fake 3D" on certain elements like the horses/carriage (if you pay attention, you won't see anything else because it's so ugly, but hey, they deserve credit for trying).
Musically, whether it's the Opening, the Ending, or any of the OST, I saw absolutely nothing noteworthy.
I wouldn't recommend this soulless work, copied from dozens of other animes.

The anime tells the story of Haruyoshi Kuga, the strongest exorcist in the world who, in his quest for even more power, is killed by those who envied his strength. In his final moments, Haruyoshi casts a spell that allows him to reincarnate in another world as Seika Lamprogue, the illegitimate son of a noble family of magicians who ignore him due to his lineage and lack of magical abilities. Despite the adversities, Seika uses his knowledge from his previous world to make valuable allies and explore the limits of his abilities. However, he must also be careful not to repeat the mistakes of the pastthat led to his death.
Regarding the characters, Seika is an interesting and well-developed protagonist, and the secondary characters also contribute a lot to the plot. Although Seika's older brother doesn't have a prominent role, he's not a completely forgotten character and has some significant interactions with his younger brother.
The art is beautiful and the powers and mechanics of the plot are fun and interesting. However, one of the weaknesses of the anime is that the fights are sometimes resolved too quickly, making some situations feel a bit rushed.
Overall, "The Reincarnation of the Strongest Exorcist in Another World" is an entertaining anime with an interesting plot, likable characters, and attractive animation. I give it a rating of 8/10.
El anime cuenta la historia de Haruyoshi Kuga, el exorcista más fuerte del mundo que, en su afán por obtener aún más poder, es asesinado por aquellos que envidiaban su fuerza. En sus últimos momentos, Haruyoshi realiza un hechizo que le permite reencarnar en otro mundo como Seika Lamprogue, el hijo ilegítimo de una familia noble de magos que lo ignora debido a su linaje y falta de habilidades mágicas.
A pesar de las adversidades, Seika utiliza su conocimiento del mundo anterior para hacerse de valiosos aliados y explorar los límites de sus habilidades. Sin embargo, también debe tener cuidado de no repetir los errores del pasado que lo llevaron a su muerte.
En cuanto a los personajes, Seika es un protagonista interesante y bien desarrollado, y los personajes secundarios también aportan mucho a la trama. Aunque el hermano mayor de Seika no tiene un papel destacado, no es un personaje completamente olvidado y tiene algunas interacciones significativas con su hermano menor.
El arte es hermoso y los poderes y mecánicas de la trama son divertidos e interesantes. Sin embargo, una de las debilidades del anime es que las peleas a veces se resuelven demasiado rápido, lo que hace que algunas situaciones se sientan un poco apresuradas.
En general, "The Reincarnation of the Strongest Exorcist in Another World" es un anime entretenido con una trama interesante, personajes agradables y una animación atractiva. Le doy una calificación de 8/10.

I was ready to dismiss this one as being mediocre, but I kind of liked it as it actually stuck the landing. In many ways this is generic, bland, mediocre, and at first glance there is not much to this, but I'm not sure if this is deeper than it is, or if that is me thinking too much about things, and the problem with that starts with the ending. By that what I mean is, throughout the series we get given a few subtle hints that put you down a path of thought, where you start to think "ah I can see where they are goingwith this, and it would be cool if they did do it"
Now most mediocre series are a let down because they throw away all potential and just follow the standard generic path.
This series however followed through with its promise and delivered on its ending.
Which then makes me ask, was there more to the rest of it? Or was it just bad?
So, first thing, the MC reincarnates, after being killed for being too strong...
So this time he decides to hide his true strength / abilities, and play it smart. Now if this is him playing things smart, then I hate to see things when he's being an idiot, because his decisions are the dumbest ever if he intends to keep a low profile, he keeps patting himself on the back for how he's able to keep a low profile and ensure that there are others that seem stronger than he is.
Yet the good thing about this series is, some people do seem to see through this and recognise him as being super strong anyway...
So is this intentional?
And then there is his lack of relationship with Yifa, and how he treats her. This is more than the dense protag debuff, it goes beyond being oblivious to her feelings, he's emotionally uncaring to the point that you wonder if he has emotions, and I have to ask, is this intentional?
So the problem I have is, because this is so mediocre in so many ways, and goes through the motions, can I call it decent simply because the ending was okay, and that it lived up to its promise, and because certain aspects may or may not be intentional depending on how you read into them.
Final verdict: It was okay

This best represents the reincarnation of the most powerful exorcist since his entry into another world. It is a typical ISEKAI anime with a hint of Japanese mythology, action and fantasy, and there were a total of 13 episodes, which I consumed in a single day, and even though it touches on the most common trait of an overpowered protagonist, it does well to be entertaining. This drama involves Seika Lamprogue, the reincarnated exorcist, who ends up within a magical world where he uses all that he knows and can bring powerful abilities to overshadow the rest in sheer ease. Fans of series like ThatTime I Got Reincarnated as a Slime or Wise Man's Grandchild will find similarities here.
The anime features awesome action sequences, light comedy, and a bit of romance, but nothing groundbreaking in terms of the whole genre. The BGM as well as intro music are tolerable and not catchy enough to skip. The downfall is that Seika found it very easy to defeat each and every one so it doesn't create tension and excitement basically. The season finale is not satisfying as it does not end with a clear conclusion nor it leaves much anticipation for a second season. It is an okay one-time watch but not really in the league of Solo Leveling or Tower of God. 7 out of 10 for me-not boring, but not extraordinary either.

“If you don’t have anything else to watch, this might be a decent way to pass the time.” That’s probably the best way to sum up this anime. It doesn’t bring anything particularly new to the table and ends up being a fairly generic take on the isekai genre. The main character is extremely overpowered, yet tries to avoid drawing attention—something we've seen plenty of times before. That said, I appreciated that the protagonist isn’t portrayed as spineless or timid. His backstory as the strongest exorcist in his previous life adds a bit of depth and is a nice touch instead of him being a weakling andsuddenly becoming overpowered.
I haven’t seen many exorcist-themed anime, so I can’t say how well this one stacks up in that subgenre. However, I did enjoy the show overall. The use of “Shiki” and how the powers differ from traditional magic was interesting and gave it a slightly different flavor.
Still, I wouldn’t go out of my way to recommend it. There are definitely better takes on both the isekai and exorcist themes out there. But if you're looking for something simple and entertaining to kill time with, this might be worth a casual watch.

This is an anime about a powerful Japanese exorcist who is killed due to people fearing his powers, and reincarnated in a new world as Seika Lamprogue, the son of a noble. He still has his memories and powers from his original world, but he doesn’t want to stand out and end up targeted again, so he does his best to lay low. The majority of the anime involves him attending a magic academy where he and his friends get pulled into various conflicts that require him to use his true powers to resolve, though he does so secretly without anyone catching on. This is anoverpowered protagonist isekai, though it has a couple unique aspects going for it. The first would be the context of how the protagonist is overpowered. He’s using abilities and summoning monsters rooted in Japanese fantasy, while the world and everyone else are rooted in western fantasy. This culture clash works incredibly well in making Seika seem awe inspiring. The western fantasy setting is the typical high fantasy sort of thing that’s pretty light hearted. The use of Japanese fantasy for Seika’s abilities is much darker with pretty strong horror atmosphere at times. This contrast combined with how Seika can be quite brutal with a smile on his face results in him having very unique vibes for an overpowered isekai protagonist that ultimately make this aspect feel pretty fresh and interesting.
Beyond that, the anime isn’t all that great though. The writing was a mixed bag. The plot is basically just a chronicle of various unrelated events the main cast get involved without much of an overarching plot line. It feels like there’s proper world building that’s going somewhere towards the end of the anime, but most of the anime feels pretty directionless. I’m not too nit picky about plot holes, but there were some fundamental ones that felt really off. Primarily centered around Seika’s behavior and supposed goals not really aligning at all. He says that he wants to lay low and only uses his true powers in the shadows, but even what he does in the open should attract attention. For example, he doesn’t use normal magic, only the spirit magic from his original world. And he uses it really well to do things that normal magic can’t do. Other characters comment on how his magic is strange, but it never goes beyond that. That would be fair enough if he was just an adventurer, but he’s a student at a magic academy where lots of others are doing research on magic. It’s just kind of bizarre and feels wrong both in terms of Seika using magic that should clearly be conspicuous, and it somehow just not being so.
The cast is also just okay. Seika is cool and the heroines are interesting, but they don’t have much depth. Seika has somewhat of a character arc where he grows to be less afraid of showing his power and becoming more comfortable being himself, but due to the aforementioned issues with him clearly already doing so this arc didn’t really land well. There are three heroines that are all pretty likable in terms of personality, but their character arcs felt forced. Seika resolves most everything completely on his own without the girls really having to do all that much and often without them even knowing what’s really going on, so their growth doesn’t really feel earned. There’s also a romance that’s pretty explicitly developing with one of the girls, with maybe some light hints towards the other two, so there’s somewhat of a harem feel. There’s not really enough there to be appealing to harem fans though. The writing does do a pretty great job at handling some of the side characters. Mainly in how it portrayed the mysterious wise princess, and Seika’s generic asshole brother actually getting fleshed out and growing up in a way that felt realistic.
The art and animation are decent enough. The western fantasy stuff looks pretty plain, but that just helps the stuff rooted in Japanese fantasy stand out more. The character designs were okay. The OP has a very 2000s anime feel that I’m a fan of. The ED is also pretty solid. I also like how both of them change as the anime progresses. The soundtrack worked well in terms of making Seika stand out, but beyond that wasn’t particularly memorable.
tl;dr: An isekai anime with a very unique overpowered protagonist, but not much going for it otherwise.
