Hazurewaku no [Jôtai Ijô Sukiru] de Saikyô ni Natta Ore ga Subete o Jûrin Suru Made

While Failure Frame shares similarities with typical isekai, it also stands apart. The hero is clever and consistently uses his intelligence and cunning to navigate challenges. He's ruthless, but in a way that feels strategic rather than cringeworthy.

The animation style is quite impressive, especially for a lower-budget anime. Many other shows with larger budgets don't manage to look as good which is shocking.

Overall, it's an impressive series. It feels like the kind of story you'd play out yourself-using strategy to outwit enemies and eliminate those who truly deserve it.

The faction play is impressive, the villains are fun, I am not sure about the other heroes but we will see how it goes 10/10 no complaints other than the jiggly orbs on some girls that are shown too much but that's anime for you.

"Failure Frame" defies traditional expectations by presenting a villainous protagonist, Touka Mimori, whose journey from abandonment to revenge is both captivating and thought-provoking. The anime's unique blend of dark fantasy, isekai elements, and strategic storytelling makes for an engaging watch.

*Strengths:*

• Touka's complex character development and moral ambiguity
• Intriguing supporting cast, particularly Seras Ashrain
• Strategic battles and magical systems
• Subversive take on traditional hero's journey

*Weaknesses:*

• Subpar animation and excessive CGI usage
• Unnecessary fan service detracts from the narrative
• Pacing issues in some episodes

*Verdict:*

Despite its flaws, "Failure Frame" is a compelling watch for fans of dark fantasy and isekai genres. The anime's ability to balance action, strategy, and character development makes it an entertaining ride. While not perfect, the show's unique perspective and engaging storyline make it worth watching.

This anime truly surprised me in the best way possible. Among the many shows released this year, this one quickly became my favorite. From the very first episode, I was drawn in by its compelling story, beautifully animated scenes, and the emotional depth of the characters. The plot is well-paced, filled with twists and turns that kept me hooked throughout the entire season. Every episode left me wanting more, and I found myself counting the days until the next release.

The storytelling is mature and well thought-out, striking a balance between action, emotion, and mystery. It's not just another generic anime with a predictable storyline. Instead, it has a refreshing uniqueness that makes it stand out. The world-building is detailed and immersive, making you feel like you're part of that universe. The characters aren't one-dimensional-they grow, struggle, and evolve, which makes their journeys feel real and relatable.

The animation quality is outstanding. Whether it's the fluidity of fight scenes or the subtle expressions in emotional moments, the production team did an excellent job bringing this world to life. The art style is both stylish and atmospheric, matching the tone of the story perfectly. I also loved the music and sound design, which enhanced every scene without ever feeling overbearing.

In short, this anime has everything I look for: a gripping narrative, lovable characters, stunning animation, and high emotional stakes. I really hope the studio announces a second season soon, because the story definitely deserves to continue. If you're still deciding whether to watch this-do it. You won't regret it.

I very much like this anime, it's only the second anime series where the mc is screwed over by the goddess that summoned him, and in this case he is really dumped into a deep hole that he has to fight out of from the first episode.

I guess you could call it a harem anime in some way's, but he has sworn off any relationships until he can dish out payback to the goddess that tried to have him killed.

Plot Touka Mimori and his classmates are suddenly summoned to a fantasy world by a goddess to act as heroes. While most of them are shown to have exceptional skills, Mimori has an E-rank. Deeming him useless, the goddess decides to banish Mimori to a monster-filled dungeon where nobody has ever survived, a fate to which almost all of his classmates abandon him without hesitation. However, it turns out that his skills are more abnormal and powerful than they seem. After escaping from the dungeon, Mimori vows to have his revenge. As he travels throughout this new world, strengthening and increasing his skills, he acquires friends and allies while making sure that the goddess and his former classmates continue to believe him dead.

Cinematography / Animation

Animation was not the worst. But I did not care for it. It is along the lines of Berserk in terms of animation style... I won't say quality, but in terms of style... yes. (And I mean this specifically in reference to fight scenes, every fight scene is the same animation style).

Editing

The story progressed pretty smoothly. Each scene goes in the order that it needs to, leaving out no inconsistencies in continuity. There are on occasion backstories that exist within an episode, but there is no stand-alone backstory episode, at least that I can remember.

Mise en Scene

In terms of the setting of specific scenes, I think the coolest moment in the anime comes in episode 6, personally. There is another moment when the MC travels to a location which provides a similar cool moment. This happens around episodes 9-10.

Performance

The actors and actresses did a great job of showing the specific emotions of pride, ego, and anger. As much as it makes you dislike certain characters, they were portrayed really well. So... a shoutout to:

Ryouta Suzuki & Ayami Tsukui (Touka) Masaaki Mizunaka (Takuto) Tsubasa Sasa (Agito) Emi, Hirayama (Asagi)

Sound

The soundtrack was good, the only thing that bothered me was the noise you heard when the MC used one of his abilities.

Overall... I think the anime had a good story and good pacing. I didn't care for the animation style, but that was not enough to keep me from watching it. The MC actually is highly intelligent and basically does whatever will benefit himself and the people he cares about.
