Ultimately a little disappointing, but still enjoyable.
How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom asks for a lot of patience from its viewers, and I have to warm you it doesn't exactly pay off. Your enjoyment of this anime will entirely depend on if you find they journey to get to nowhere an entertaining one, and I kind of did. This show follows a guy who is reincarnated into a medieval world with warring countries, and uses his knowledge from his past life to lead the county he's helping. I thought this idea, although executed slowly, was well done and I found it entertaining to watch. This show is labeled as a romance; it is not and don't expect one or you'll be disappointed. A season 3 or a movie to wrap up the story would've helped this show a lot, but as it stands its ending is very rushed and rather unsatisfying. Overall I cannot recommend this show to a casual anime fans, not even for a one time watch. Only if you meet the criteria I described and the issues I pointed out don't bother you, then give it a watch.
