Headhunted to Another World: From Salaryman to Big Four!

It's definitely a light watch, perfect if you're not expecting anything too deep or groundbreaking. The whole 'Demon King' element feels like it was added just to make it more intriguing, but at its core, the anime is actually about government affairs.

Acting as a government official, delivers the hammer of justice on behalf of the state. He engages in diplomatic relations with other nations. Finds who is corrupt trader that betraying its country And as all isekai's secret rule, somehow forms a harem . Like I said, it's a casual watch--------nothing too complex, but decent enough to pass the time...

I like that in the final episode, they showed the fates of previous characters you can really see the effort put into it. It's the best episode so far, and that's how it should be. This episode actually raised my overall rating of the anime from a 6/10 to a solid 7. It's a nice change from the typical overpowered MCs in isekai who just spam spells left and right without much thought. Here, we get a completely different take on the genre, showing how the main character breaks free from the mental shackles of the corporation that had been exploiting him. It feels like a mix of Realist Hero and Zom 100, though of course, those anime are much better.

(14+) Another "isekai" adventure, this one is a little different because the protagonist doesn't receive any powers when he arrives in the new world + he is put in a position of power right off. Instead, he uses the skills learned from over a decade in Japan's corporate culture to solve problems in his new world, and it works! It was refreshing to see a character rely on their own skill set to succeed, rather than uber (or weird) powers like some of the others in the genre. This series had a couple of darkish moments, which was kind of surprising based on the tone of the majority of the show. Anyways, if you like these types of anime, you will like this one!

This isekai series is centred on Dennosuke Uchimura, a salaryman who works hard but is consistently overlooked by his employers. Then, as is often the case in such series, he dies in an accident and finds himself in another world... the Demon Lord has summoned him and wants him to become one of the Big Four; his most senior generals! Uchimura doesn't see what he could bring to such a role but it soon becomes apparent that his job knowledge and negotiating skills are just what is needed. Doing his job he works alongside the other generals, most notably the fiery Ulmandra.

I rather enjoyed this series. It may not be anything particularly new and I'm sure I'll forget about it soon after starting the next season's offerings but while watching I thought it was fun. The characters are fun; inevitably for the genre those working with Uchimura are female. As one might expect there is some fan service but it is fairly mild. The animation and character designs are both pretty good. The story played out well and left me wondering if there might be more one day. Overall a good enough show which I'd recommend to fans of the genre.
