Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody

The core of the show centers around a "OP" protagonist trying to understand the world he's in and maybe get home (no shock) but the difference in this case is how he handles it.

Overall he's avoiding making major waves, careful in most instances to hide what & how powerful he is and when cornered underplays his part giving others credit. Again not reinventing the wheel but handled fairly well.

The majority of the show seems to center around how the protagonist is handling his interactions and individual relationships and mostly subtle attempts to try and change the world views / prejudice of those in the same world.

Although it's technically in the Harem category and does give some "Fan Service" in a few instances the reason for the women following him make sense. It's a feudal world and a "man" (he's roughly 15 in appearance) who's not treating those under him horrifically (power wise, servants and spaces) and treating women as equals is unusual and would be a draw logically. The few "Fan Service" moments aside he's going out of his way to avoid inappropriate interactions / allowing his female companions to make sexual advances and instead is making a safe environment for them.

Add in some moments where the character struggles with some real concerns (before he's lost in the enjoyment of the new experience) and it's an above average anime. However it won't appeal to all due to the lack of action in every episode, the focus on relationship building etc.

Genre's are Fantasy, Isekai and Harem

A computer programmer is mysteriously transported into a game-like world where he learns first hand what it's like to live in the world he and his colleagues have created.

Hence, he arrives with potential for greatness and uses his powers in a kind, heart-warming fashion; defending the helpless, protecting the weak and yes; rescuing pretty damsels in distress. Very soon; he ends up with a retinue of emancipated slaves, demi-humans, reincarnated Japanese prepubescent little girls and clones! Talk about a teenager's.oversexed sensual fantasy come true! But just one minute; the master rebuffs all advancements by an over-enthusiastic Lolicon and remains chaste in favour of a; wait for it; female soldier!!

I was most impressed by Liza, an emancipated slave who is loyal, smart and brilliant at martial arts. She is also taciturn and is the mother-figure for the two demi-human girls Pochi and Tama. Now that is one sexy lady; instead of the dolt of a love interest that is our lady soldier, Zena!

Still, enjoy people, this series for its light-hearted fun; just leave behind too much cognition and enjoy!

When I first started to watch this anime, I didn't expect much because it had IMDB rating 6.6. But When I started watching I really liked this anime. The idea of programmer going into game is pretty common in isekai animes. But this anime is kind of different because it has less fight sequences and emphasizes more on the life of the MC in the parallel world. If you want to watch a lighthearted isekai anime with some fight scenes then this anime is for you.

I hope that the producer keeps making another seasons of this anime show because it is one of the best. P.S. You you like this you should also watch.. Overlord

I 100% understand what people mean by the main character is OP, yes he is, but you need to look at this in a different way. its not about how the main character struggles at winning the fights, its more about how the main character lives life in the world he is in. so instead of people looking at it as a story with a main character that is op and will win at everything, see it this way, HE IS TRAPPED IN A DIFFERENT WORLD, AND HE IS TRYING TO EXIT IT... sorry went mega gnar for a second
