“How can a show which is 80% monologue be interesting?” There were two farming Simulator Anime that were airing this season(:p), THis one was an underdog and frankly after the terrible reception of a similar show last season, there wasnt much to expect from this. Still, one of my friends who is a dirty disgusting scumbag isekai lover basically my homie, read the manga of this show and insisted this one could be a good watch hence I knew Its worth a look. The slice-of-life formula is there and it follows the footsteps of slime. The focus of slime was more on power fantasy however andhere it is more about the harem than anything else , so much so that except for a dog and some dwarves and a couple of kids, every godamn resident of the village that our main protag is in is a ripe and juicy woman who is quite taken with him or wants to use him as a reproduction machine. Plot (8/10) Classic slice of life narrator style simulator all the event s are based on the MC s POV and most of the subtle but everpresent hints show off his evergrowing vanilla harem , as he plays Civ 6 and builds his farm, estate and business empire. Mostly its like this episode I met these friends who started to help me with this, while also they are hot women who want my energy ? kind of a situation. Oh and before i forget he is OP as fuck and nobody wants to mess with him which is also one of the running gags. Sound and VA (8/10) Peaceful and serene music for a good slice of life setting nice VA and good ED and OPs not much to say but a good solid combination. Characters (5/10) Every fucking character is there to just be eye candy busty wonman or further the civilization of the great tree village, nothing of note at ALL. Art and animation (8/10) the art and animation are actually pretty nice, lots of cute moments and well-designed characters who are welp eye-catching, to say the least even if forgettable. Overall if you are an Isekai fan and want a vanilla harem with cute girls and a light power fantasy with no sense of tension this is right up your alley and will be an amazing watch. This is a 100% hit for me and my wish-fulfillment-loving friends. if this doesn't appeal to you just watch the other farm simulator of the season, its called vinland saga for some reason and its much better.

"The nothing isekai" A show literally filled with nothingness. It borrows some ideas from various other shows, then does nothing with them. First up of course is the farming aspect, since it's already right there in the title. Well, it's just as interesting as one wave of the hand with a magical "All-purpose Farming Tool", then pretending you actually did some work. Nothingness incarnate. Then for another example, it pretends to have a harem aspect at first, with tons of different races and personalities for the waifus-to-be, directly talking about how they need to repopulate their tribes and stuff, then we just see the MC complain aboutbeing the only man in the village and seek ways to bring other men in and do nothing of the situation. The whole topic is completely avoided for the most part except where absolutely unavoidable. In the manga we are told about the number of waifus on "night duty" in one text bubble when the first pregnancy is found out of the blue and then the topic is forgotten again. Here in the anime even that is skipped so you'd actually think he only does that one girl. So, instead of harem, you may think it's turned into a romance then? Nope, even that's reduced to nothing somehow. When the first girl shows up and saves him from loneliness and they start living together it sure looks promising, but as more and more girls come around that aspect is just forgotten. He's never shown to treat any girl like anything special until the sudden pregnancy announcement. There were never any romantic moments or interactions, let alone discussions about their views about marriage, exclusivity or such. Another aspect is village/city/country building/governance, but it again feels just barely glossed over and lacking details or common sense. It's just there, it happens, and that's all that can be said about it. The politics and interactions with neighbors are even more absurdly trivialized. Everyone is just automatically in awe of the new country's might and power and thus best buds by default, there is no conflict and clearly there never will be, so that aspect too leads to nothing. You can watch this if you want to kill some time, it's not completely terrible. So long as you expect nothing from it, it will deliver.
