Kumo Desu ga, Nanika?

Finished episode 4. Animation is not so bad as the reviews make it out to be. Definitely have seen worse.

It so far is pretty similar to Reincarnated as a slime and isekai, were mc gets reincarnated as a weak monster and the world is video-game like. Looking to see how mc progresses, and hopefully becomes op.

I've read both the novel for reincarnated as a slime and so in a spider so what but I think they did a better job animating it in this one.

By the way most isekai anime comes from a free novel site where normal people can publish their stories so it is normal most is them have a lot in common.

I really like this anime. Its just a ton of fun and all the openings are absolute bangers. My only complaints about this anime so far are the CGI in the later episodes (especially the most recent one as of writing this) and the lack of Kumoko in the later episodes. I'm watching this anime for Kumoko and not the other "main" characters. They aren't very interesting in my opinion so when we get to their parts in the anime, its not as good and gets kinda slow at times. But I do understand why there isn't as much Kumoko considering that the Voice Actor Aoi Yuki, is also working on 'I've Been Killing Slimes For 300 Years And Maxed Out My Level' at the same exact time as this anime so huge probs to her lol. Other than that, I think this anime is a pretty fun watch so far and I can't wait for the newest episodes.

As I read on a previous review. I don't think is as bad as the IMDB score make it out to be . As up to now on the 4 episode the IMDB score was 7.1, I personally gave it an 8, is funny and a little weird, but is entertaining. Without going into any spoiler, love the spider character, fast talker, fast thinker and funny. Estrange, but also love the end credit animation especially the punk rock part. I use IMDB a lot, usually I rank about the same as IMDB users, that's why I thrust it so much, but once in a wile I have to disagree and this is one of those times. Just finished episode 5, I'm still holding on to my 8 rate.

Honetly, imdb has this show at a 6.7 and I am confused.

Sure, Isekai's are being churned out at an alarming rate, sure, there's at least several coming out at the same time, sure, the anime isn't as good as the manga, (ill get back to this)

but really though this show is delightful. Its thrilling, creative, engaging, cute and hilarious. Its the only show I managed to even find a will to actually follow this season (aside from attack on titan), but not only did I follow this one, I went off and read the manga.

I gave it an 8. but I enjoy it like a 9.

back to the manga, which is important because the anime took a different route and added all this content about the other characters aside from the protagonist and well its dreadful. I get why they are doing it, but honestly I would rather watch a stripped version of the show without them. Its stealing time from the main character who is a precious sparkling gem.

This show reminds me of "Bofuri: I dont want to get hurt...", its cute and charming, zero-to-hero isekai power gaming. Though obviously there are difference but I love them both so much so.

I could go off about some later spoilers to help sell it which would be worth it, but ill say instead, the game mechanics are more than just cool (and broken) but very interesting, they lead to truly fascinating ideas and concepts. The show also has a few philosophical elements.

Enjoy : )
