By the Grace of the Gods

On paper a western production company would never pick this up. There is no big drama, no over the top villain or villains and even the magic used is fairly low-key compared to a lot of anime. That's what makes BTGOTG awesome!

It's a stress free, effortless viewing experience where you want only good things for the main character and that's precisely what happens. You almost find yourself suspicious of some subsidiary characters because you're expecting one or more of them to be wolves in sheep's clothing but they aren't.

I really hope this series flourishes because watching it is a truly uplifting experience that I would recommend to anyone but particularly if, like me, you're weary of the real world and perhaps graced with depression. Watching Ryoma enjoy the life this world denied him always cheers me up.

Seriously why just 12 episodes !?they could easily make this a whole 100 or 200 episodes series as it has a plot with open ending ! But if i say so this is not the best anime yet because of the the way it progress till thr end .I just literally waiting for some concludive ending but it just ended with a tease for second season and we have to wait for an entire year or more which is fustrating

No drama, little conflict, delightful simply delightful and it should get more than 2 seasons. Sometimes these sweet little anime's who don't make us cry but smile should get more credit.

This is a cute OP hero makes friends and does good things for 12 episodes. This show is a torrent of feel good scenes to escape into when life is tough. I really enjoyed this show, because there was no conflict, and sometimes its nice to leave a show with a smile on one's face rather than a blubbering mess.

It is free of contrived drama for drama's sake, and that's an even trade off for me.

Watch this if you want to smile for 6 straight hours.

I normally watch anime subbed and if I enjoy it rewatch it when full dubs out, couldn't make it through this because of females voice for main character, just stupid. Shows nice and cute but that's just too annoying for me personally.

The first couple of episodes are really good (9/10 stars) I must admit, but overall the whole series is a childish (5/10 stars)

It really starts strong with a well developed magic system, a well written story, a lot like an overly diluted lazy version of "that time I got reincarnated as a slime"

Unfortunately a couple of episodes in (episode 7 to be precise) it degrades into repetitive pointless manipulative nonsense the writing takes a nose dive when the plot starts hyper focusing on the business and starts going around in circles, its going nowhere.

The baby-ish voices and dialogue gets annoying, 11 years old is not that young, they gave a subpar reason but it doesn't hold up, everyone is so unreasonably polite that the story lacks any form of tension and the main character apologizes way too much for no reason.
