This is coming from someone who doesn’t like isekai anime, so here it is: when it comes to production calues, this is by far the best isekai anime I have ever seem. The animation is solid and the main character is unique enough to differentiate from the usual isekai protagonist. Yes, he does die and comes back as a slime, but for the few minutes we see him in Tokyo, he has a distinct personality and character design and he is not the classic MC who hates his life and just wants to bang a few girls (well, he is a virgin, but a content virgin that is). He is also a pretty funny guy who keeps his humor when he is reincarnated into the fantasy-game world as a slime.

That’s where the classic isekai tropes, however, show up. For some reason, our MC is the typical OP character who came into his new world with all hacks on. He has a ton of superpowers and even befriends one of his world’s most powerful being right of the bat. It doesn’t take long for him to get used to his new form and new powers and no matter how hard the series tried to play the ‘he is not an OP character, he is a slime’ card, the weird voice narrator thingy things otherwise. And judging from classic isekai anime and from the opening sequence, this will be your usual power fantasy OP anime.
