Hazurewaku no [Jôtai Ijô Sukiru] de Saikyô ni Natta Ore ga Subete o Jûrin Suru Made

This anime truly surprised me in the best way possible. Among the many shows released this year, this one quickly became my favorite. From the very first episode, I was drawn in by its compelling story, beautifully animated scenes, and the emotional depth of the characters. The plot is well-paced, filled with twists and turns that kept me hooked throughout the entire season. Every episode left me wanting more, and I found myself counting the days until the next release.

The storytelling is mature and well thought-out, striking a balance between action, emotion, and mystery. It's not just another generic anime with a predictable storyline. Instead, it has a refreshing uniqueness that makes it stand out. The world-building is detailed and immersive, making you feel like you're part of that universe. The characters aren't one-dimensional-they grow, struggle, and evolve, which makes their journeys feel real and relatable.

The animation quality is outstanding. Whether it's the fluidity of fight scenes or the subtle expressions in emotional moments, the production team did an excellent job bringing this world to life. The art style is both stylish and atmospheric, matching the tone of the story perfectly. I also loved the music and sound design, which enhanced every scene without ever feeling overbearing.

In short, this anime has everything I look for: a gripping narrative, lovable characters, stunning animation, and high emotional stakes. I really hope the studio announces a second season soon, because the story definitely deserves to continue. If you're still deciding whether to watch this-do it. You won't regret it.

"Failure Frame" defies traditional expectations by presenting a villainous protagonist, Touka Mimori, whose journey from abandonment to revenge is both captivating and thought-provoking. The anime's unique blend of dark fantasy, isekai elements, and strategic storytelling makes for an engaging watch.

*Strengths:*

• Touka's complex character development and moral ambiguity
• Intriguing supporting cast, particularly Seras Ashrain
• Strategic battles and magical systems
• Subversive take on traditional hero's journey

*Weaknesses:*

• Subpar animation and excessive CGI usage
• Unnecessary fan service detracts from the narrative
• Pacing issues in some episodes

*Verdict:*

Despite its flaws, "Failure Frame" is a compelling watch for fans of dark fantasy and isekai genres. The anime's ability to balance action, strategy, and character development makes it an entertaining ride. While not perfect, the show's unique perspective and engaging storyline make it worth watching.

The storyline of this anime is superb and the action of the anime is top notch. I love how Touka use anything at his disposal for his revenge and he didn't let any weakness crept into his revenge. I think this anime is the best revenge anime I've ever watched and I pray every revenge anime will be like this.

I recommend this anime to everyone who wants to enjoy great anime revenge series. I urge everyone to watch this anime.

From episode 1 to the end of the anime is top notch. The MC is very smart and incisive unlike some anime MC who are hesitant. He makes sure not to let anyone opportunity slide.

Great anime,great plot and great action.

I got about seven episodes into this and couldn't really get much further. This one has a lot of the usual Isekai tropes. But just because something recycles ideas to a point doesn't make it a bad piece of entertainment. This had a lot going for it in terms of potential. I'm always up for a good revenge plot, particularly against a deity simply because there is a lot of growth potential in that sort of story. The premise was pretty interesting as well (but got thin quickly). Our combat mechanics were interesting as well, but became a bit inconsistent and, well, boring. I stayed with it in the hopes of improvement due to the premise, but wasn't rewarded.

Let's go.

First off, practically every relevant named character is a basically an a-hole or moron in some capacity. Once you get passed that, we learn that, aside from our male protagonist and one other character that I can recall, every single male in this one is either a rapist or an elf fetishist. This basically makes the world around the character uninteresting and probably requires parental permission for younger audiences.

Then there's our protagonist. Without giving away much, we'll say our boy had some potential. His existence up to the starting point in the series has been apparently miserable. In fact, the entire point of the first episode is to beat this into your head thoroughly with a blunt force instrument. Along the way, we learn that he actually had some nice points in life, which he later discards, then reasserts, then drops again, then... well, you get the point. Basically, his characterization is inconsistent. This did make for one very, VERY nice twist in episode three, but that's about it. In a general sense, the writer of the series couldn't really decide what they wanted to do with him. Basically, he's like the usual nice-guy-turned-harem-target without any appreciable depth beyond his flip-flopping "I am a hardass but really a nice dude inside I think" characterization.

But roughly about three episodes in, it begins to hit you that what you are watching is a self-insert power trip fantasy turned into an anime. Now, I've got no issues with fanfiction or self-insert stories. You do you. But if I wanted to binge that sort of tale, I would drop my local Anime streaming service and check out some fanfic website.

There is some storytelling whiplash, deus ex machina, and even writer arsepulls as wel. Without giving away spoilers, the entire point of one episode about the range of our male character's attacks and builds around his needing to draw them in closer so this modus operandi would be effect. Then after a particularly gruesome demonstration of our protagonist's abilities.... he gains range!

I was done after that. To the writer's credit, they did build this up some, but there didn't really seem to be a point after that. But it's really difficult to stay with something when the rules change in a world because of plot convenience. Our other fan-service protagonist has her own special power in this world, which I think involves her glowing and warping in some cool armor, but doesn't seem to have any actual combat value because the writer and animators couldn't be bothered to give us a demonstration of it.

There are some issues with the animation as well. For about half of the scenes in this series, this was done pretty well. But in other parts, the CGI overlay on photo-realistic backgrounds was actually jarring. In some parts, it's fluid and smooth, but others (particularly in the Inn scenes for some reasons), it feels like the video cards needed a driver update because the FPS was horrible. The action scenes were adequate, but not spectacular. Just.... Meh.

In summary, I can't really recommend this one. This one had potential to be something, but fell flat nearly from the outset and I can't really think of a reason to watch this unless you an animated OP self-insert story turned anime.

While Failure Frame shares similarities with typical isekai, it also stands apart. The hero is clever and consistently uses his intelligence and cunning to navigate challenges. He's ruthless, but in a way that feels strategic rather than cringeworthy.

The animation style is quite impressive, especially for a lower-budget anime. Many other shows with larger budgets don't manage to look as good which is shocking.

Overall, it's an impressive series. It feels like the kind of story you'd play out yourself-using strategy to outwit enemies and eliminate those who truly deserve it.

The faction play is impressive, the villains are fun, I am not sure about the other heroes but we will see how it goes 10/10 no complaints other than the jiggly orbs on some girls that are shown too much but that's anime for you.
