I just finished watching Overlord with my wife.
It's the worst anime I've watched in at least 3 years.

@RichardJohnson @EdBoatConnoisseur Isekai anime in general drive me up the wall. They have a somewhat interesting premise, and then they literally do nothing with it. The whole genre is literally just an excuse to avoid needing to do any world building, character development, and the only thing they can do is lure in readers with obnoxious titles.
Then you try and read the light novel, and it's literally the worst writing ever. 12 year olds are better. I could get the same experience from reading self insert mary sue stories on wattpad.

Are you telling me you didn't enjoy Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon?
@RichardJohnson @EdBoatConnoisseur >Live reaction to me watching that
@RichardJohnson @EdBoatConnoisseur I think these are the only isekai anime worth watching (I don't really count .hack or Sword Art), and even then they are kind of mid. The spider one is funny to me because it's good by accident - the concept was do the opposite of every isekai trope, which by default makes it not suck. As a result it too slowly putters out as it struggles to hold all of the limes of it's very convoluted plot.
@Elliptica @RichardJohnson @EdBoatConnoisseur Not listing konosuba is lame as fuck, that one’s kino. Also mushoku tensei is also kino
