Ningen Fushin no Bôkensha-tachi ga Sekai wo Sukû Yô Desu

I am all in for slow and philosophical anime, have a high tolerance for most of the anime but this one is something i just cannot bring myself to not skip or not stop watching, it's boring on another level.

The anime started really interesting for the first 3-4 episodes but then it took a direction where the show doesn't know where its headed. Random characters jumps in with no development and the story randomly shifts to something else, cannot seem to get myself to connect with the story at all.

Even though the dragon girl and main character are well designed but the plot drags everything down.

I get a lot a lot of people are unsatisfied with the plot line. But these artists work really hard and only get 12 episodes in the Japanese broadcasts.. If it doesn't get enough views, it doesn't get renewed... Knowing that, I can only assume after the first few episodes, it didn't get the viewers it needed to continue. So they likely made fast adjustments and spent longer hours (without proper compensation) to ensure there were no cliffhangers.

I enjoyed watching it. I wish they would have been able to keep it going. Maybe one day. "But that won't happen for a long, long time." <3

Thank you to all of the hard working artists who worked so diligently on this project.

On the beginning of every episode they tell a new story about other character background that waste a lot of time.

Isn't this supposed to be an action, adventure, fantasy type of anime? The MC only appear on some of the episode, and they tell too much story about side character.

This anime supposed to show about a group of people that hate humanity but save the world at the end, but there's no save the world scene or any adventure thing, it's just a documentary of a lot of character in this anime.

Like other reviews said, it only good on some of the first episode, but after that it went really bad.

The story is about 4 characters who were betrayed by someone in the past and stopped believing in people and with this common point meeting in an common place (an tavern) now they work together as an adventure party.

This show is really bad animated, don't know if is because of lack of time, lack of resources or both. I don't wanna blame the animators, as I know how hard is the life of an animator in Japan and how low is their payment, but in this show you see a lot of scenes where they just keep repeating the same frames, or they just move the characters around the background without giving any animation to the character, making everything look really cheap. With a low budget, they should at least invest more in having good dialogues and story, but the show also lacks of it. The direction and dialogues are also horrible and boring, from ep 4 and on, it's like you have a redemption arch for mob characters that no one cares. The world building is also confusing, as at start shows a medieval setting, characters wears Middle Age clothing, use candles, etc. And on ep 5 and 6 you start seeing houses with lamps, modern age cassinos, artists using microphones, etc.

About the characters, most of them are very very boring and really lack charisma. The main character acts like the red ranger from the Power Rangers (their main power is called "Union" where they merge.. therefore, here we kind end having an humanoid megazord ), the mage girl don't have any cuteness at all, you can see some charisma only on the dragon girl. The healer is totally forgettable, and the "legendary sword" is very very annoying. I really can't see any good point to recommend this show (maybe the ending.. the end song and animation are very cute).

I think the backstory behind the characters may not be very deep, but don't let that take away from the fun of the show. The way the characters grow in each episode is very noticeable and important for the dynamics of these characters. I think it's a good show with interesting concepts and ideas. Let's start with the swords- I like that they introduce multiple swords with unique abilities that also symbolise the importance of the bonds between the main characters. It also emphasizes how they are able to support each other differently. If you look at the show objectively and not in depth then you can say it's "boring" or that the main characters are "shallow", but the approach that it is clearly taking is to not focus on the backstory to much and to more so focus on the growth of the characters throughout the show and how they develop. Each character has a smaller story which has their past as a foundation, and is built upon how they deal with these situations in the present and move past them while helping others to not make similar mistakes. I think this is more so a show of growth. I personally look forward to see how these characters grow mentally and in strength in future seasons and episodes. (If any future seasons or episodes come out.)
