I Parry Everything!

Ok, so I was told give this a try. I thought I was going to see another solo leveling or shield hero type flick. But this....... this was just bad but not because of the anime. But the voice acting was horrible. I mean it felt like watching my older brothers 80s anime. It was that bad. I mean the delay between the next person talking. The bad dub over and the voices were just plain bad all together. Normally I say the dub is better than the Japanese version........ but in this case I was absolutely wrong. The dub over was trash. It literally destroyed the experience and the video.

This could have been better and more enjoyable with some better voice acting, and changing up the verbiage to not sound so cheesy and deliberately so. I'm sorry I know noor is supposed to be a bit of a numbskull, but this was over the top. This needs to be redone and fixed from the voiceovers. I'm hoping for a better abridged series. Because thus far this anime is being tainted by its bad dub over and speech through sounds just 80s and older than me.

There's nothing that really stands out about this. The animation is fine but won't dazzle, character archetypes are pretty run-of-the-mill, and the story itself isn't exactly gripping. It's familiar because variations of what's presented has been done so many times before. Even the guild hall and overall setting may as well have been directly copy and pasted from another series. Were it not for the absurd humor, there would be little that separates it from anything else.

The things listed above can be seen as criticisms, but only if you're looking for original or groundbreaking work. Instead, they can also be viewed as points in its favor because they're taken from existing blueprints which people find enjoyable. The only thing a generic show needs to be decent is good pacing and effective presentation of whatever is being shown. This definitely has that, which makes it an easy watch.

For newcomers, this is fresh and interesting. For zealous fans of the medium and genre, it will be a comfort show that they probably sought out. For the average anime regulars that stumbled onto this, it's ultimately forgettable but you'll enjoy it while it's happening.

Imagine a guy who spends his early years in a jungle hut, isolated from village or town life. Then, after his mother's death, he enters the city for the first time-not to explore, socialize, or learn about urban life, but to train relentlessly for about 1.5 years. Despite his efforts, he is rejected for his inadequacies, labeled talentless and inept by the very teachers he admired.

Disheartened, he retreats back to the jungle, where he trains in solitude for another 15 years. By the time he returns to the capital, he knows next to nothing about the world, its customs, or even how to interact with people. He is, in essence, like a feral child in an adult's body. Of course, he would be ignorant, self-doubting, and foolish-it's completely in line with his upbringing.

So, if you're complaining that the MC is "too stupid," maybe the real issue is your inability to recognize how well his characterization makes sense.

... is what the show should be called.

Rarely have I seen a more ignorant MC. It reminds me a lot of "Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town".

I'm not sure which of these two I like better. I think it would be this one, but the extreme idiocy and badly-written forced misunderstandings start getting more and more annoying once you're past the first few episodes. I'm sure there would have been a way to implement this concept in a way that isn't infuriating to watch.

If you ignore or don't mind the forced idiocy, the characters (if you ignore their stupidity) are mostly likeable, there is no fan service, and the animations are mostly good.

At first glance, there is nothing special about this anime. I normally don't do the medieval-esque classic fantasy animes since the original release of Record of Lodoss Wars back when I was a child.

HOWEVER, I took a gamble on this after seeing a trailer randomly on YouTube. It's by far the funniest show I've seen in a long LONG time. I was genuinely in tears at how consistently funny and face-palming the comedy of communicative errors were.

Basically...What if One Punch Man thought he sucked, and everyone failed to communicate to him how wrong he was.

He is so good at parrying; he can parry words... WORDS!

You're missing out, if you skip this one.
