Otome Game Sekai wa Mob ni Kibishii Sekai desu

Blackmailed into playing a dating simulator set in a matriarchy, an ordinary man must put up with the unbearable and convoluted world until he clears the game. After countless days of grinding, he finally manages to beat it, but his hardcore gaming comes at a cost: extreme sleep deprivation and hunger.

While heading out to the convenience store to solve one of these problems, the man tumbles down the stairs and falls unconscious, only to wake up to the worst possible realization—he has been reincarnated into the game as the mob character Leon Fou Bartfort. Now trapped in a world he despises, Leon must use his knowledge of the game to navigate through the plot safely and sustain himself in a society where the odds are heavily stacked against him.

One of the best anime I've watched in a long time.

The premise doesn't do this show justice. Leon does get trapped in a game that he played, however the game has deviated from the one he knows. It's not by a lot and certain events still happens, but it's different enough that makes it interesting.

So what makes this anime so good? LEON. This MC is awesome. He does what he wants and says what he wants. It's refershing to see an MC with actual PERSONALITY. Don't get me wrong though- Leon is still very kind. His goal is still to be a mob character, ... however through unforseen events he has to make decisions for him and his friends happiness. In short, Leon is a wild, but thoughtful man. I absolutely love him as the MC.

It's not just Leon though. Almost all the characters are good. Angelica is probably my favorite. She goes from a timid character to finding her own path. I love that she sheds the helpless "princess" cliche. Olivia is the other main girl. She's alright. She doesn't do much except cry throughout the show, but the ending gives her a big boost in development. The 4 rival guys are also very good. When first introduced, I thought I would hate them because wow how typical and boring. But they actually have depth and personality. They don't like, stand out or anything but I love that they are also determined in their own ways. And finally- Leon's robot sidekick. How the hell did they make this thing so damn hilarious! The robot and Leon's interactions are my favorites in the show. They just burn each other relentelessly. I actually laughed a lot.

I also gotta give credit that the show was able to pack a TON of material in a 12 episode series. Seriously. I think they had like, 4 total arcs. For the most most, it didn't feel rush and I was invested in the plot. That said, I do think they could've slowed down some parts.

The negative is that they never fully explained why this is a world ruled by women, because it sure as hell doesn't feel like it. The entire time it's the men who are in charge and make all the important decisions (save for a few scenes). Like, do women rule because they're stronger? No. Because they have higher statuses? Not really- I mean men have just as much nobility. So yeah. Doesn't make sense.

That said, I fully adore this anime. 12 episodes went by way too fast. I really really really REALLY REALLY hope there is a season 2.

Definitely watch. Thanks me later!

Mixed Feelings

The overall themes of the anime are action, romance, comedy and obviously isekai. Yet it’s not your generic “isekai” difference is he wants to be in the background which is very hard for him to do because of the multiple people he interacts with. If you enjoy a MC (main character) who is unhinged and loves to do what he wants this will be for you as the man takes great pride in following his own ideas which will bring you laughter, followed by a romance that is VERY subtle and builds slowly but when you notice it you WILL be hooked on it ... or atleast I am….

Sometimes you find a great story, great characters, nice animation and all that... is ruined by just one character, a character so annoying, a character so unnecesary, a character you could remove and the story could've been not only more interesting, not only more straightforward, but just plain better... in this case, that character for me is Olivia.

When i started watching the story i find it interesting, i liked the concept and how was it being develop, but from the first moment she appeared immediately i knew she was just gonna ruin something and the story was gonna be a mess because of her. Not ... only she has the worst type of personality where she doesnt understand her position and HAS to have an opinion in everything, also HAS to talk in every freaking situation when she shouldnt and just cause more problem to the people around her, but also in the moment when the other girl earns an intimate moment with the protagonist, she steals it from her by being selfish.

Everything around her character is unnecessary to the story, besides the barrier and being a bridge for the protagonist to meet Ange, which both could've been solved differently and literally you could remove her entirely from the story and woudln't have changed.

I dont know, i really wanted to like this story, but Olivia just ruined it for me. This story could've been perfect if it where just Leon and Ange.
