Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill

I started watching this show because the premise of a cooking anime was interesting (never seen one before). I immediately fell in love with the light and comedic storytelling of this show. There is hidden "drama", but it is never brought upon (example: Mukouda responsible for Fel in cities, but there is never any problem arising). This at least in season 1, I'll have to see from season 2 forward, but I hope they keep the same narrative structure.

This is just a simple show of a hungry, powerful wolf and his "chef", with some fantasy-deriving creatures, magic and lots of food.

Among the many intense shows around nowadays, this is one you can watch and finish the viewing with a smile, no matter the episode.

With this wonderful anime not getting much press, it almost slipped by me.

It didn't even take half an episode before I was hooked. Usually you have to watch a few episodes to get to know the characters and story, but this one was entertaining form the first second on.

The animation was good, but nothing to be wowed by. The writing however was perfect. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

Funny, moderate action, adorable characters and it successfully pulled off the "foodie" genre as well.

It doesn't cross into the "mature audience" zone either, so kids can watch it too.

Don't let this year go by without watching this wonderful. Anime.

To claim that Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi, also known as Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill, written by novelist Ren Eguchi, is the now-famous studio MAPPA's first-ever Isekai endeavor-that is, that this show is MAPPA's Peak-sekai-is not wholly unfounded. Undoubtedly, as a whole, it's fantastic, and MAPPA DID SUCCESSFULLY showcase a respectable Isekai for the first time.

Tsuyoshi Mukouda, the master chef and cowardly salaryman who is the MC, is called to an other realm. In this episode, Mukohda, equipped with the power of the "Online Supermarket," and the "Hero's Party" organization are set up to assist the kingdom in driving out demons. After persuading the nobility, Mukohda eliminates himself from the Isekai race and gains freedom to travel the fantastical realm.

The opening theme song is standard fare for an Isekai series of this kind. The debut song by Van de Shop, "Anisong," blends in nicely with the seductive imagery and sounds alright. Similarly, Yuuma Uchida's ED song "Happy-go-Journey" sounds ordinary as well, so that's not a problem. To put it mildly, it's merely passable, in my opinion.

Among the many copy-paste Isekai shows this season, Cooking Isekai is a breath of fresh air. Despite not being an OP power fantasy, this program is among the greatest we've seen this season since it's just a campy, carefree look at life.

I really Loved the series, Mukohda was such a sweet character and I loved his personality, Fel was funny and Sui calling him Uncle Fel is hilarious to me. And as for Season 2 I really hope. Mukohda can...(I mean this in the best way) kinda grow a bit of a backbone and help kill the monsters because not gonna lie it kinda got annoying just seeing him standing there...even Sui is stronger than him, now for Fel I really hope he actually cares for Mukohda as a person and not only for his cooking because if he only love him for his cooking(his food looks amazing btw) that'll kinda tick me off a little. Sui has nothing to change because Sweet Slime ~w~

As the title of the show suggests, it's a show mainly about cooking. But that doesnt take away from the usual adventure RPG-like theme isekai anime generally have. There are battles, but they dont drag on. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean the battles aren't fun to watch.

Is this harem? Nope.

Is this ecchi? Nope.

Is it violent? Has blood and death (they have to hunt food), but I would not describe it as gory.

Is it a romance anime? Nope. (I dont know if Season 2 has any romance) Is the story completed? As of writing this, the manga is still ongoing. Season 2 is still awaiting green light.

If you want to experience a chill adventure show, look no further! It's the first show I've grown to love so much that I went here to create an account just to give it a 10/10 rating in hopes to see a Season 2 in the near future. I usually don't care.
