    worth watching

    This series really would have been a great one if there was some power system like magic and other things.still this series is enjoyable.this is kind of some unique isekai.well i will not spoil for you.find out for yourselves. Yeah the storyline is unique and interesting,character art style is average.(not good not bad either)love the protagonist for his helping nature towards other with a realistic way.it is the kind of isekai where they can travel between the two world.i would have love to if the fighting scenes were more intese.only one thing i found disappointment that the fight scenes are predictable.i mean well if you fight an ancient world with modernization weapons you know the outcome.well all things aside this series is interesting and you will definitely hooked and waiting for season 3. Definitely worth watching 👍

    A nice twist on a familiar genre

    "A gate to another world opens, and..."

    Anime that start out like this are a dime a dozen these days, and this one starts out exactly the same. However, it soon takes that familiar start and does its own thing with it. What would *really* happen when the world discovers a gate to another world? Would politicians want to make peace with these new people, or would they want to scavenge this new world's resources? Would everyone welcome the newcomers to their respective worlds with open arms, or would there be fear and distrust?

    If you were to just judge Gate by some random screencaps, you would be hard-pressed to tell it apart from any other anime like it. A lot of the tropes it uses have been done a million times before. Cute, big-breasted girls fawning over well-intentioned, cool-looking guys. Fantasy creatures galore. Wonder at the differences in their respective worlds.

    But Gate takes a much more realistic approach to what would happen if something like this were to occur for real, and that's why I'm okay giving it a 7. It's still tropey as hell, but it manages to stand out from the rest because of its realism.

    Do I recommend you watch it? It's only 2 seasons for now, and there's a lot of stuff out there that is better, but if you're wanting to watch something isekai-ish that is not just the same thing repeated for the 1000th time, Gate is for you.

    One of the best anime

    This anime is certainly one of the best anime's out there. It's really worth your time. You could say It's isekai. I really enjoyed it. I highly recommend this. One of the best isekai I've ever seen. After watching you will want to watch season 3.

    Fun

    For me this was a through back to classic anine like Macross of Samurai warriors (main stream). It has all the prerequisites for most dramedy anime a mix of good guys bad guys a protagonist hopelessly at odds with his character. Some how funding himself surrounded by this odd collection of supporting characters. All of whom are made up of classic archetypes the grizzled old noncombatants, the quiet stable medical officer the gungho soldier. Than you have the girls demigod badass, wise wizard, than the traumatized victim that once she wakes up yet another badass. Look in short you want to watch an anime that has some laughs and drama not to mention some kick but animation this is for you if you are looking for something way more serious highlighting the horrors and trauma of war I suggest Beserk or if you want to go way back Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise. Trust me there is enough of the terrible Hell that is war in those movies to sufficiently depress you.

    This is not a time travelling anime, but it's cool

    Try to think if modern era is mixed with medieval era (with dragon, elfs, mage, and gods exactly) Uuuh, that's must be awesome.
