There’s nothing sweet about the show nor about his reincarnation. Let's be honest, at first, we surely thought this anime would be that slice of life isekai, where the mc is making pastries and sweets in another world. Just like the "Parallel World Pharmacy" but with sweets and pastry, and with the MC opening a bakery or sweet shop. But sike! It's actually "How a realist hero rebuilt the Kingdom!" While I don't hate the show for what it was, I can understand why others dislike it for this very reason. The actual story was relatively decent, but it seems to be diverging from its initialpremise. After all, the show is called “Sweet Reincarnation” for a reason. We were expecting a cooking and baking show centered around pastries and sweets, not another politics and war isekai.
It's a slow burn show with an okayish pace. The worldbuilding is present, although it's a bit shallow in every aspect. Nevertheless, it's better than any other current or previous generic isekai. As we progress through the episodes, we get to learn more about the geopolitics, magic system, and war, all of those funsies details slowly build up.
Strangely, this anime reminds me a lot of “Ascendance of a Bookworm,” but it lacks the unique charm that Honzuki has. In Honzuki, the story is primarily focused on Myne/Main, the main protagonist, and we intimately follow her struggles and journey to make a single sheet of paper for her dream of becoming a librarian. However, in this anime, it seems like the story revolves more around the people surrounding Pastry, the main protagonist. While he faces similar struggles to Myne, every time he tries to pursue his passion, it's constantly hindered by others, whether it's his father, his friend, his brother in law, or unnecessary diplomacy with other fiefs. For God's sake, let him cook for a moment!
All that aside, yet it still lacks baking or making sweets. For a show called Sweet Reincarnation it's incredibly lacking on those thing. I swear I could probably count how many sweets he's made throughout the entire series with just one hand. All I want is just one episode dedicated to making pastry/sweets and with Pas as the main focus, no politics, only sweets and pastries. Maybe a second season would bring justice to this anime.
Anyway to sum it up, it's a fun show about a patissier that reincarnated in another world although slightly a bit lacking in the pastry/sweet department. If you are looking for a foodie show, this is not it. If you are looking for another generic isekai that is slightly better than the others, this would be perfect for you.
Maybe the real sweets were the friends that he made along the way. Seriously, his fiancee's name is Licorice.

This show takes the standard Isekai tropes and plays them with a level of honesty and groundedness that is hard to come by (and by this I mean any groundedness at all). There are some concerns about this not being a cooking show, and that there are politics and war instead. I see this as a strength; I appreciated the sort of bait-and-switch of expecting to see a MC living in leisure and doing what they love, but instead seeing them being confronted by the responsibility of being born noble. Desserts are left mostly in the background but they are used as a plot device hereand there.
I like to think of this as Ascendance of a Bookworm but with desserts instead. That is probably the highest praise I can give an Isekai series.
Overall, this is an enjoyable show. The elements of Isekai that make them bad are mostly absent -- I'd recommend it to anyone who doesn't have a big prejudice against the genre.

I was promised anime about baking in isekai instead I got this boring stilted political "talks". Thats probably the reason why they had to put that "he is amazing patissier" schlock in front of every opening - otherwise everyone would probably forget by the 3rd episode. I am a huge fan of cookig/baking anime and I usually rate them higher than they objectively deserve to be rated because I just enjoy them so much. This was just disappointing and a waste of time. Frankly I had to watch the last 4 episodes on 2x speed because it was so boring. Dont watch it unless youwant to be put to sleep.

Real disappointment from what I was expecting, looking at the title and artwork for the anime, one might expect it to be about desserts, cakes and cookies..... in the end, it's plot is lost on itself. (if you rather skip the blabber, read the last paragraph, it's a 3/10 :P ) We're introduced to our main accruing characters, Pastry, our protagonist and his father Casserole (also a type of pastry, names are a bit odd, but cute, another character is named Brioche, another pastry dish), being reincarnated after suffering a fatal death by candy sculpture, Pastry is born into a low ranked noble house with adream of building a world filled with sweets and yummy food. After his father notices his talents after seeing Pastry's vast knowledge to grow more wealth for their family he is brought to the church, a bit early for his age, all suited up and ready to know how strong his magic is in this new world.
Replicate!
This new found power granted to our MC through the trial will soon become a stable throughout the show, a way for them to make more money for the house and bring more plot swings to drive us away from the more interesting aspects of what the show could have been, I felt drained halfway through, from the bandit attack against the village to the kidnapping of a noble girl, it ends up with our protagonist having smirky conversations with nobles trying to outwit them to gain money for his house, honestly wanted to just drop the anime halfway through seeing it swung to being about politics and Pastry just being witty with adults because his from another world and is smorter hehe....... also there's a bad guy bandit named Strudel.... enough said
I don't know where this story went, it's all over the place and it just lost my interest in every way, some character designs were cute, especially the mom and daughter, other than that it's nothing much, was expecting a fun anime about food, instead I was fed more medieval politics mixed with a little magic. It's nothing new and not worth the time to watch.

Do they make sweets every episode? No not really. At moments I think it should be just called Reincarnation instead of Sweet Reincarnation. Though, there are moments in the anime where it does shine, like the politics the main protagonist plays in order to make sweets. But there are sometimes too many politics which I consider to be both a positive and a negative of this anime. The reincarnate plays the politics well, but when I watch an anime about making sweets, I expect there to be more sweets than politics. If I wanted to watch a politics anime, I would've watched How a RealistHero Rebuilt the Kingdom. Now I did not "not" enjoy this anime, it's good to watch just to pass the time, but I probably would not rewatch this anime in the future.

This anime was not in the realm of so bad it's good, nor was it in the realm of good anime. It was so bad it's bad. The story is neither unique nor interesting. It's essentially a carbon copy of any kindom/fief building simulator. The premise is completely ignored, both the reincarnation element and the cooking element. Even up to the final episode I was wondering when he was going to do anything interesting. The art style is standard and neither good nor bad. Probably the best part of this show. The characters were so one dimensional I struggled to believe they existed in 2dimensions. The main character was a typical doormat Japanese MC who also gave off the impression he "liked them young". All side characters were essentially enablers with no personality, cartoonishly evil (even for an actual cartoon) or sycophants who love the MC for the most basic of favours.
The anime was, if anything, too realistic as it spent the entire time on mundane affairs and ignored the actually interesting stuff like the sweets and magic.
I would like to note he has EXTREMELY interesting magic and apparently no interest in using it despite its utility. Imagine buying a ferrari and then deciding to cycle for the rest of your life.
Others will not enjoy this series unless they are of the same mindset as the moron that though this show was good enough to release.

Okashi na Tensei is a light-hearted and enjoyable anime about a young boy who is reincarnated into a world of swords and magic with a dream of becoming a great patissier. The anime follows Pas as he learns to bake sweets, make friends, and fight to defend his land. The anime's strengths lie in its characters and its humor. Pas is a likable and relatable protagonist, and the supporting cast is also full of fun and quirky characters. The anime's humor is often subtle and understated, but it always hits the mark. However, the anime does have some weaknesses. The plot is fairly predictable, and the pacingcan be slow at times. Additionally, the anime's focus on sweets can be a bit too much for some viewers.
Overall, Okashi na Tensei is a fun and enjoyable anime that is perfect for fans of fantasy, comedy, and slice-of-life. It is not the most groundbreaking anime, but it is sure to leave you with a smile on your face.
I would recommend Okashi na Tensei to fans of fantasy, comedy, and slice of life. If you are looking for an anime that is light-hearted and enjoyable, then this is a great choice. However, if you are looking for an anime with a more complex plot or more action, then you may want to look elsewhere.
Personal Thoughts:
I enjoyed Okashi na Tensei. It was a fun and lighthearted anime that was perfect for a relaxing watch. The characters were likable and the humor was on point. I would definitely recommend it to fans of the genre.

This anime is so bad it forced me to write my first review on MAL. The basic outline of the story is the reincarnation of a patissier into a medieval world, where we meet him by the name of Pastry Mille Morteln. Our protagonist is a wanna-be Willy Wonka, since he wants to create a land of sweets (see: Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory and the Room of Sweets). Plot: To say the plot deviated from its original pathway is a gross understatement. The original goal of this character is to make sweets, yet we see so little of any sweet making. Pastry made some hard candies,candy apples, apple pies, a tarte tatin, and a cheesecake. There were no intriguing details about why Pastry wants to make a land of sweets except, "I want to see a smile on people's face"
Honestly, this dialogue is repeated so often, it's stuck in my head now. If this 9-year old child wants to make sweets, then why is the plot throwing him into wars and poltical conflicts? There was even an engagement, where Pastry is engaged off to our air-headed female lead Licorice. There's even a misunderstanding to spice things up, where a grown woman tries to seduce a 9-year old boy. I don't know how to express my disappointment and disgust.
Pastry has the magic ability to "Replicate" which should have been explained better because doesn't it sound like he can duplicate anything he sees? Like turning one apple into two apples, or turning one sack of gold into two sacks of gold. Wrong! He can replicate one thing onto another thing, such as image on a cloth, or teleportation spell on himself. He cannot duplicate items, which is a rather useless ability to give to a supposedly OP main character.
Characters:
This anime had the most hilarious names in the history of names. You have a story of the reincarnation of a patissier, I wonder what could his name be in the new world? Eureka! It's "Pastry". Oh, I wonder what his love interest could be named? You get "Licorice"!
The father is named Casserole, a bandit is named Strudel, and the main villain is named Brioche. I can't even make this up! Just how lazy do you need to be when naming to get this cast of characters?
We do not get any background of these characters, which makes them appear like a generic cast of nobodies plucked from a box and fitted in the story simply to get the story going. Pastry is supposed to have 5 older sisters but we only see Josephine, his next older sister. Pastry's mother and sister are shallow characters, as in, they only care about dresses and love. We learn nothing about Pastry's life before the reincarnation. There is nothing aout Pastry's parents or their life story. We don't even know why our female lead developed such a complex inferiority syndrome while she was doted upon by her father equally as her twin Petra.
How does Pastry's parents justify sending a 9-year old into war? I don't care if he's the main protagonist, he's still just a boy. It is iterated in the anime that Pastry does not have a buff body (he's 9 years old) so how is he parrying adults with years of experience with a sword?
Art Style:
The art style is reminiscent of animes like "Ascendance of a Bookworm" and "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" which is what attracted me to start this anime in the first place. Not too shabby in that regards, and the sha-la-la effects were nicely done. However, during several scenes, the background characters would be drawn without any faces, which was severely disconcerting. Let us say for the benefit of doubt that background characters don't need faces. However, even our cast of main characters would be drawn without faces while they were in the foreground of a scene. I suppose the animation studio had very limited budget so they spent it all on the first episode drawing all the fancy candy sculptures.
Music/OST:
A generic feel good music track, showing all the characters and all the sweets that Pastry wishes to make. Nothing too extraordinary.
Conclusion:
A waste of time that I only completed because I refuse to leave an anime as DNF.
2/10 stars.

Review for this anime, many mistakes can be started from the most basic, namely the title and story are not in sync, if you think this anime will tell a story of a pâtissier who will revolutionize the culinary world with knowledge from the modern world then you will be very wrong. The focus of this anime story is more on the military side than the world of pâtissier/culinary, the MC who plays the profession of Patissier is only an occasional interlude that is inserted in this story. So this is the root of the problem of this anime story. The main focus of thisanime story does not match the title and prologue that are always inserted at the beginning of this anime aired every episode. This is where the disappointment begins, from the most basic thing in this story. A more reasonable approach to the profession of Patissier would be more suitable in the fields of economics, agriculture and industry than the military. Patissier and the military have no relationship to compatibility. I myself am confused a Patissier but more dedicated in battle than baking ..,
So the conclusion of this anime is the same as most low-rated reincarnation genre anime that only fulfill the seasonal anime quota, with the addition of Patissier frills and many typical cliche scenes such as fighting bandits, kidnapping, and wars whose causes are unreasonable. And even if this story leans towards a military approach, there are too many gaps in the story, one small example: the context of the use of magic in this story is ambiguous, aka only a part of the complement without a clear basis, what is the use for in everyday life in the kingdom and who can use magic? This is really unclear ?! And many more strange gap details in the story of this anime.
For animation etc. the assessment is all standard minus, tiring if explaining it.
So I can't recommend this anime, if it's just to waste time maybe yes.

Wow, that some trash can even get an anime adaptation is incredible. I mean, this is just bad enough to deserve such criticism. I don't know how bad the original is, but the adaptation is truly garbage tier. I kept on cringing and rolling my eyes while watching this, it's as if everyone in this anime is mentally deficient to put it mildly. Hell, the show can't even stick to its own premise, "sweet", it's supposed to be about baking/sweets, the opening and so on is entirely focused on this, so is the initial premise, we're heavily promised this, but when we're thrown in, we realize almostthe only baking/patisserie stuff goes on in his empty head as he drools from his own imagination and maybe an apple pie and some minor stuff that wasn't even close to the focus nor properly shown. If a show can't even stick to its premise/title at the starting line, the author is doing something very wrong and that in and of itself is proof that the author can't be that bright, which is reflected in their characters, even down to their names since important characters, even villains, are just named after pastries for no reason (it's ok to let the protagonist have a pastry-related name but wtf is up with everyone being pastries? I guess they do have the intellect befitting of such a name though). It's as if the author is just screaming "look at this, it's soooo weird and unusual, he wants to build a country of sweets, yay, how weird and not cliché, interesting, right?" because he couldn't think up a proper setting, he just wanted the crutch of "protagonist likes sweets and wants to bake" to pretend to be different than the most generic of trash isekai out there, then failing completely as he didn't even focus on that part properly...
The protagonist is an idiot at best and it's just made worse by everyone else being even more stupid than him to make up for him being a moron. His ideas make no sense, he acts as if he's truly 9 years old despite his actual age, he lived in our modern day age yet has zero clue about anything except making sweets. His tactics are trash, his mentality is that of a child, he thinks up "smart stuff" that ends up not only being simple but also a crappy way to use his abilities.
It wouldn't be as bad if he was meant to be stupid, but it's very clear that he's meant to be very smart, which means others around him need to be amazed at his awesomeness and be even dumber than he is. So, they end up even more moronic than he is to make him appear smarter than them.
Oh, and we're also thrown into this not knowing his backstory while growing up, so to us, it makes zero sense that a literal 9 year old child is given so much responsibility, to the point of being left to lead the stronghold when the adults go out to do a suicide rush at the enemy, just 2 people against what, 70? Everyone listens to him and he thinks up "brilliant ideas" that's not brilliant at all but work because the author can force it. Maybe things would make slightly more sense if the anime gave a recap of him growing up first or didn't just rush everything to the point where we don't know any of his abilities until he uses them for the first time? Really, he's also the one taking control of any and all conversations as his father and everyone sit back and stare blankly into the wall, he says simple, innocent and naive crap that would never fly but other characters act as if he's a tactical genius with a great gift for debate... I'm so sad I had to watch this, even if I kept it as background noise while reading something else after the first 3 episodes.
Even his personality sucks, he's just kind and stupid and that's it. The rest of the cast appear just as artificial as him, it's as if they're walking cardboard cutouts with pre-recorded lines and just 1-2 actions they might take, that they're lacking "life" is an understatement, it feels like this is a 10 year old's idea of a "natural conversation".
I don't feel like anyone should watch this, ever. It doesn't deserve to be watched with how trashy it is.
They're truly scraping the bottom of the barrel with this. Surely there's better stuff out there to animate, but maybe this studio just mutilated what would've otherwise been a half-decent story? It wouldn't be the first time.

A light and crispy anime that can be enjoyed during a relaxed period. The series revolves around the concept of a sweet-loving pastry chef finding nobility in a new world. It is simple, engaging, and soothing, making it easy and enjoyable to watch. If we talk about the shortcomings: Firstly, there is a rather bland nobility system and confusing aristocrats. Yes, there is a general lack of clarity and meaning in the plot. Look, this baron, that duke, this count—okay, now you've learned about them, and the story throws you into their troubled world. Additionally, while the characters are not explicitly portrayed as overpowered, they somehowmanage to overcome every challenge. However, the mind games are significantly lacking and resemble second-rate detective movie style. The whole "I predicted this, but it can't be!" element is introduced, but it's not fully developed.

This is perfectly fine anime. Good animation, nice fx, pretty good VA. Bit bland here and there but its a good watch. However, there is one aspect of this show I despise. It's a fantasy show, with fantasy elements, taking stuff from our world too. Goats are goats, milk is milk, eggs are eggs, but apples are bonkas. They say it repeatedly. it's used in a lot of recipes in the show. This would be charming if the other ingredients were given fantasy names, or maybe if he slipped up and called them apples by mistake. There's a poignant moment full of the history of dessertsand relating it to a side characters arc ruined by "its made from bonkas". No point in calling them that, zero purpose.
other than that he has a cool power that doesn't get much use, not forgotten but still... It had a cool moment but then the back half of the show its almost absent. I thought thered be a scene explaining why he cant duplicate money, or if he tried to duplicate a goat or horse theyd be very sick so he can't use it like that, but no. He couldve the whole time.

The usual copy-pasta isekai. A genius Patissier (pastry chef) dies and reincarnates as the son of a small rank noble. But, sugar is expensive in this world, so his poor ass can't do any baking :( This show's main focus is about managing (and developing) his lands with the help of isekai tropes and a few baking puns. The plan is to eventually get rich/resourceful enough to provide for his baking needs. As with most Isekai, this is also filled with tropes. The characters are really boring. MC is OP (although he rarely uses his OP skill) and is a smoother talker who can negotiate/dealwith even the most experienced nobles. Nobody questions his knowledge (especially HOW this barely 12 year old kid knows baking recipes that nobody ever heard about). All female characters (except one red haired noble lady) are useless.
The only good thing about this anime is the relationship between MC and his father. It is rare to see good (and alive) fathers of male MC in Isekai. They do a lot of bonding, respect each other and are almost always in sync. When MC learns about his OP skill, the father discusses about this properly and makes sure to keep this a secret to avoid unnecessary attention. MC's father kinda saves this show by being an almost secondary MC.There is no harem (yet), which is maybe another positive.
Anyway, it is still generic isekai trash, but slightly better than the usual trash. So, i would recommend most people (whose time is valuable) to avoid this. But if you are going to watch isekai trash anyway, then i suggest picking this up instead of the usual isekai trash.

Dying from sweets? That's unique...but retracting to the "copy-paste" Isekai formula that's plagued the AniManga industry for years now, that's a lowbrow, bruh. It's just sad how many authors thought they have a unique premise to the ever so saturated Isekai genre, but forgetting that the premise has to be backed up with the plot, and that's where the entire work is doomed even before the work could get an upstart. Yet, this is exactly the scenario for novelist Nozomu Koryu's only work that is Okashi na Tensei a.k.a Sweet Reincarnation, a perfectly average work that got its start in Syosetu in early 2015, and thenspawning with the LN with 24 volumes ever before the anime got its start. And yes, if you're thinking of giving this anime a go, please hear me out first before you do so.
So first up, I'm going to spare you the pain of watching a rather mediocre Isekai: this anime describes the VERY definition of the word "misleading" at best. Yes, it features patissierie...food like sweets and pastry to be exact, but most of the time, it's stuck to the very same tropes that we the audience have been and now suffer from in Isekai every season, and Okashi na Tensei is clearly no different from the rest of its contemporaries. Moreover, I'm just sensing that Japan sure doesn't care, and by some perchance, makes the trick to propose old works that only will see anime adaptations years down the road, only to forget that Isekai is the safe cash cow that will make profits even if losses are predicted beforehand.
That said, what Okashi na Tensei does well in is its simple plot of a reincarnated adult-turned-kid who wants to run a business selling sweets, and surprisingly, its characters, whom of which many are references to real sweets in life. Though I will say for the MC that is the bright kid of Pastry Mille Morteln: "Boy, you're in the wrong show! If you want to really make sweets, join Anne from Sugar Apple Fairy Tale, and you two can become child prodigies together to make sweets and build a sweets empire together!" Aside from the copy-paste repeated plot that has Pas (name in short form) fight for his lowly Morteln family by ascending to the likes of bigger kingdoms like the Hubarek family, forcefully getting engaged to the children (because that's a thing that the adults will capitalize on to build the next generation) with names like Petra and Licorice, yeah...give your children unique names so that you can have a sweet marriage when they grow up, I see your game there, ah hah? Aside from the adults having names like Pas's father Casserole, the caveat is that you'll have to see all of the usual BS like kingdom politics and family infighting, not to mention arranged family marriages, just to see the plot progress for Pas to finally make baby steps in his venture to create his sweets kingdom.
It feels like the patisserie segment is only a piece/slice/share of the pie while the usual Isekai tropes are just slathered everywhere else being the filling of the pie, almost like a bonka (apple) pie that is not filled enough, or if it has a bad taste due to the wrong mixtures of fruits and spices. The baking takes at most 5 mins, while the rest of the episodes are all your usual Isekai shtick, and that should say something about either if Nozomu Koryu was a clown or a genius that he/she managed to fool his/her audience into thinking that: "If you want to see some real sweets baking, please read my work...and I promise you that as much as you love reading Isekai and put up with all of its nonsense, the sweets will come and make your time worthwhile." To which I say, it's total BS, it's clear which parts of the story makes the entire work profitable, and it's definitely NOT the sweets portion that makes this show and its original source material, the way it is.
Everything else surrounding Okashi na Tensei is average at best, from SynergySP's art and animation, and even to the music, which I've definitely heard better from sajou no hana (given that it's only Sana), and YuNi's ED is just...kinda annoying to hear after awhile.
If you want shows that aren't complete white lies to its premise, try Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi a.k.a Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill, which I still believe is one very recent show (from Winter 2023) that sticks its guns better, or even Isekai Shokudou a.k.a Restaurant to Another World, which is a rather soothing good time of an Isekai/fantasy show. It's just a shame that all of the Isekai BS we've seen and tolerated for years now, it's happening to unique-but-not-so-unique works like these that has got producers and directors thinking that they have a small gem, but they're diamonds in the (literate) rough.
If only I rather not take this show at face value, then it's a pretty decent show, all things considered. But when you have something like "Sweet Reincarnation" in the name, it's anything but sweet, a total flaccid waste of time.
