The Daily Life of the Immortal King

This series starts out interesting, with a good premise and slowly-built characters to make it enjoyable. But around the last 4 or 5 episodes (the sword battle) it starts becoming repetitious, and the ending is poorly written and very unfulfilling. If a story doesn't have a good ending, the series is a flop.

I give this a 5-star rating just for the startup story line, but it loses 5 stars in the yawner, lazy-writing finish. They could have ended this so much better.

It's based on a web novel with OP protagonist trope. Some say it's a rip off of Saiki K, but that's least of the problem because this kind of OP protagonist trope has been super common in light/web novel scene for a while now and Saiki K itself was a late comer to that trend.

What makes this 3/10 is very simple -- it's just bad.

The source material was actually fairly entertaining and popular because it was makes a lot over the top reference of real world people, events and memes. In fact, most of source material was kind of joke of what's popular at the time, but somewhat tying that to the overarching plot, which made things interesting.

But the anime is nothing like the source material. Most of meme and reference were cut out (legal reasons?) and these were actually the soul of what made original web novel interesting. After cutting bunch of stuff out, story was then stitched together in a messy way that it makes absolutely no sense. And to make things even worse, around episode 8 or so, it completely diverged from source material and starting making it's own story. You'd think that now you don't have cut out half of source plot, they can write a comprehensible story, right? Nope, it's somehow even worse and make less sense.

Not sure why this became an anime to begin with. If you have cut out half of original story arc for whatever reason, you should just realize it's not a proper source material to make an anime with.

1) The most important thing is that the series is watchable.

2) It's an anime but made in China. I'm so use to listening in Japanesse that is weird in Mandarin but you'll get accustomed.

3) The plot is really interesting, something that reminds me of Saiki K anime, the guy that has enourmous power but doesnt wanna make a big deal of it. But in this case the main character is really careful cause if his full power is realeased it may cause the end of the world.

4) The story telling is weird I think, the plot doesnt flow naturally sometimes.

5) It's entertaining, you wanna keep watching episode after episode despite the flaws. It's something that may bother some people, but it doesnt ruin the final product.

It's the first time i've watched an anime from China, I think is good enough to say that they have potential to develope some interesting series in the future.

I'm not a huge anime buff, but I really liked this so far (ep. 6). It's funny and I like the way the hero is so low key. Enjoyable.

If you like a funny relaxing anime with some side of power up action, this is pretty good. Un like many, i didn't read the source material, so this is pretty refreshing for me. The main characters are flushed out and like able. The ending is so so, thus my rating. A dub version would help this anime's cause.
