Jidou Hanbaiki ni Umarekawatta Ore wa Meikyuu wo Samayou

Reborn as a Vending Machine is one of those anime that, by all logic, should make absolutely no sense. The premise is so absurd a man reincarnated as a literal vending machine that it feels like a joke taken too far. And yet... somehow, the studio manages to build a surprisingly coherent world around it. The characters are endearing, the worldbuilding is more solid than expected, and the story never feels like it's just relying on the gimmick. That said, the absurdity is still hard to ignore, and the show doesn't always know what to do with its own weirdness. It's not amazing, but it's definitely better than it has any right to be. A solid 5/10 for effort and originality.

Reborn as a vending machine might just be the craziest plot driven anime i have seen till date. I was not expecting anything a lot but man i binged first 3 episodes like crazy and had a blast watching it. Highly recommended.

I have never read the light novel so i didnt know much before going into the anime but i was glad it had come out with a DUB for first episode. Watching the first episode in dub is what really got into into the anime. Excellent dub cast btw so youre gonna def enjoy it.

The light novel came out in 2016s and the anime in 2023. I think this is a good anime and eveyrone should enjoy.

The anime exceeded my expectations. I never thought I'd enjoy seeing a vending machine get isekai'd, but here we are. The relationship between the vending machine and the strong girl is sweet and rarely seen in other animes. The show was quick, and rightfully so; the story was light, making it easy to enjoy. This anime gave me a new appreciation for Japan's love of vending machines.

However what the... Was that in the end did they pimp themselves up to thank him lol, typical Japanese anime.

Also I would to see more transformations from him with the condition that they keep the story light and short.

This anime, to put it bluntly, is a prime example of blandness in every aspect. It appears as though the creators pinned their hopes solely on the gimmicky premise of reincarnation into a vending machine, assuming that this alone would suffice. This approach, however, falls flat, as it appeals only to a narrow audience and lacks the depth needed to engage a wider viewer base. It's as if the writers neglected the rest of the show, leaving it devoid of any real substance.

The characters, unfortunately, follow a formulaic and unoriginal pattern. They exhibit predictable and overused personality traits that have been recycled countless times, with the main character suffering the most from this lack of individuality. The absence of any distinct personality traits renders them forgettable and hinders any emotional connection.

Worldbuilding, a crucial element in any fantasy narrative, fails to inspire here. The universe feels unimaginative, and the narrative itself proves to be a tedious experience. This anime desperately lacks the spark that makes a story engaging.

Considering these factors, I wouldn't recommend investing your time in this lackluster creation. The lack of effort in various aspects of the show, coupled with uninspired worldbuilding and a dull plot, contribute to an overall viewing experience that falls short of even basic standards. Spare yourself the disappointment and avoid this anime at all costs.

Why people rate this anime so bad? I love this anime the story character and plot are good, hope there's 5 season adapted i also love rammis when she always with MC, being his first friend ( ill put rammis to my waifu list) And my hope is after the Main character transformed into human also bring some power ups like unique skill ( as always another isekai Main character) and have nice looking and cool face. Very recommended for yall that wanted Slice of Life isekai this is nice and maybe my critic is because the main character has lack of backstory hope they gonna add it too thats all ( yall need to try )
