Saikyô no Shienshoku [Wajutsushi] Dearu ore wa Sekai Saikyô Kuran o Shitagaeru

Definitely one of my top 3 favorite anime this season. You can tell that the creators had a solid idea for the plot, and especially for the characters. The main protagonist stands out with a strong personality and a consistent focus on his goal, though his psychopathic tendencies, such as gouging out a father's eye in front of the girl or treating people as tools, definitely make him a psycho. However, as long as there aren't any delusional defenders of the main character, resembling Griffith's defenders from Berserk, everything should be fine. The transformation of characters like Leon and Koga is also worth noting, as well as the interesting personalities on the opposing side, like Barzini, who has his own unique "aura." There aren't many good anime with such a well developed world. I wait for next season 9/10.

"The Most Notorious 'Talker' Runs the World's Greatest Clan" is a refreshing and action-packed anime that showcases a truly badass protagonist who effortlessly commands attention. The main character, with their sharp wit and unparalleled strategic mind, stands out in a sea of typical heroes. Rather than relying on overdone drama or complex backstory, the focus remains on their actions, skills, and the way they lead the world's greatest clan with calm authority. This no-nonsense approach makes the show a thrilling ride, with each episode emphasizing clever problem-solving and intense battles. The protagonist's confidence and competence are the true driving forces, making them an admirable and captivating figure throughout the series.

I love it, he doesn't yield to anyone and the fact that you always have this test of morals of what is good or bad. It's pushing your sense of morality and he does what he needs to achieve the things he wants. I like that they show the "everything comes with a price trope". It's so refreshing and a lot of really good action. I love it that even though he's a talker he's not completely defenseless and still has a way to fend for himself. I literally cannot wait for more and I hope there's season 2 soon. This is the first time I got this feeling of excitement and adrenaline rush over an anime for a while.

It's a new take on the traditional "I'm the strongest" anime. With his personally, with the differences of personality, to the key characters and story, truly a breath a fresh air on traditional fantasy anime. Really recommend giving a try, especially if you are getting a bit bored with the familiar take.

Introduces a new style to the main character both protaining to good and evil, and how you think things will turn out. Instead of just poof, magically the strongest, you have a story and character that constantly builds. Does w good job of adding new elements and new characters after throughout new episodes. And after finishing defeiently left me wanting season 2. From abilities, to plot lines, too just complete insanity I highly recommend this anime.

Protagonist Noel Stollen is a 'Talker' the lowest class in a magical world but he is determined to lead the most powerful clan in his magical world... after all his grandfather, Brandon the Overdeath, had done so before his death. To this end he sets about recruiting people who can help him in that aim. His skill might not be the best but it enables him to effectively boost others' abilities. He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal.

This is a solid enough magical action anime; the sort of thing one enjoys while watching then forgets about as there are so many other examples of the genre. The story is good and it is refreshing that our protagonist and his associates aren't perfect or even particularly nice. The character designs and animation are good. The final episode does feel more like the 'end of the beginning' so perhaps there will be more one day; if there is I'd watch it. Overall I'd not say this was a must see but it is worth checking out if you enjoy the genre.
