Preliminary (4/12 eps)
This can only be described as konosuba’s love child. But the kind you know will be a complete abomination so you try and push whoever conceived such a thing down a flight of stairs or two or three. Only to find out the brain damage caused to the child is irreversible creating a monster that’s going to be worshipped almost as much as the Holy thighble. Being that this is actually from the author of Konosuba I’m going to be eating this shit up for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It’s like having a coke addiction, but you’re all out of coke and well, it’s black ...

The wonderful thing about the Internet is the amount of freedom we have. And with freedom, we can use our creativity to build worlds, to imagine ourselves in places where we never expected, or meet people from the other side of the globe. What does that tell you about anime? Well, it means writers are able to freely express their thoughts and ideas into their work no matter how ludicrious it is.

Take Sentouin, Hakenshimasu! for example. It's written by Natsume Akatsuki, the same writer who is the brainchild behind the KonoSuba franchise. You remember Konosuba, right? Unless you've been living under a rock, that ...

Sentouin, Hakenshimasu! is basically a retelling of KonoSuba—only much, much inferior. That's not to say that it's particularly a bad anime, but does that matter much when pretty much the entire time I was thinking: "I wish I was watching KonoSuba instead."

The idea of parodying isekai RPGs was novel few years ago. However, after the release of countless light novels and anime that have parodied/attempted to parody isekai, this concept has become painfully dull as practically everything about the genre has already been covered. Originally a light novel by Natsume Akatsuki—the creator of KonoSuba—Sentouin, Hakenshimasu! is essentially just another unremarkable isekai parody. I know what ...

Sentouin is crude, low brow, and juvenile as all hell. And yet I laugh every single time. Not every show has to be meaningful or high brow, but I'm glad shows like these can exist alongside and contrast against other elitist pretentious crap. You know you've got a gem of a show when even the episode previews are entertaining.

Like seriously, there's an entire episode that's basically a 20 minute long episode preview and it's still funny as hell.

Sentouin hits you with jokes like a machine gun. The jokes come fast and even if one doesn't hit, another one soon takes its place. Even ...

I will be honest. Its not a really good anime when you have a tight time like me who is trying to land a job. I guess its good. not very or amazingly, just good. You would rate this 10/10 if you hadnt seen konosuba, or you laugh on daddy jokes.

Story : If we remove the comedy, the story is like 3? or 4. Lets be real. This is the same with konosuba. I guess, thats why they are investing in comedy. Its a great anime especially after watching some depressing shit. Like I read the murder case of Junko F. , if you ...

THIS ANIME IS MADE BY THE SAME AUTHOR AS THAT OF KONOSUBA

and I totally felt that the entirety of the first episode was an excuse to include as many konosuba references as possible to promote the work!

which is why I keep comparing this to konosuba because although it was supposed to be a different experience with a similar taste it feels like an ADVERTISEMENT OF KONOSUBA FOR THE FIRST TWO EPISODES.

but the third episode is like the redemption arc for this anime where you can feel an actual story and world being presented to you at last XD

now then,

Combatans will be dispatsched, the english title of the anime is an anime that exist. Did it have to exist? Not really, it is just a piece of work that I have so many problems with and its even worse after I knew who the author was. So lets give a small introduction to this Anime, it is an Isekai comendy show with a cast of a loli, a pervert, stupid and fan-service. Does that sound familiar, yeah its kinda the same as Konosuba but way worse in every aspect. And the worst part is is because its the same guy who made konosuba also ...

Natsume Akatsuki. This name should be very familiar to the big crowd of cultured people who watched KonoSuba before, not adding that his later work (Hataage! Kemono Michi) is hideously average at best. But what else is this author hiding? This show! And it's none other than Re:Zero author Tappei Nagatsuki whom found out that Natsume Akatsuki was actually hiding this work from superiors at Kadokawa, and if you know anything about the AniManga industry, if your work is noticed, you're gonna get rekted the hell outta deadlines and such. That's why he hid it from Kadokawa, and the snitch was just waiting to happen ...

This show is written by the game guy who made Konusuba, so if you like Konosuba i reccomed you rewatch konosuba instead, because this show is not worth it at all. It is inferior in every single way you can think of.

The story is about a "Evil company" and a "Evil hero". The reason i wrote Evil Hero and not Anti-Hero is because he is not a anti-hero at all. He is just a cruel and mean hero, who does bad things because the author made me do it to "compensate" for when he does good deeds that the story needs to progress. It ridiculous. ...

it might be unfair to compare this to konosuba but i think enough people picked this up because this has the same author as konosuba

tl;dr
has its funny moments but ultimately falls on its face because it rushes everything

story: 5.5
mediocre, rushed, unoriginal, unnecessarily convoluted, the opposite of a breath of fresh air like konosuba, doesn't know when to switch between serious and comedic

art: 5.4
generic isekai character design. probably the most original thing in this whole anime is the wheelchair character

Preliminary (9/12 eps)
The anime is at its best when it's being silly, not that it's good then either since 90% of the jokes end up the same way. Its serious episodes are easily the worst part. They all start from nowhere with a really weak setup and worse payoff and the only thing they accomplish is show how incredibly stupid everyone is.
There's no tension when needed, and when it needs comedy it just goes for sexual harassment jokes.

Alice is a very boring robot who took EIGHT episodes to become all fedora atheist and start doubting magic and curses; Snow likes money and shouldn't love Agent Six because ...

As is with the majority of silly comedy anime you have to take Sentouin Hakenshimasu and this review with a grain of salt. It's one of those animes that are self aware and intentionally stupid. So if you are one of the people running around on this platform who consider themself "anime connoisseur" and the "sentiment of acquired taste" please go and call out another anime for "characters as flat as your girlfriend's chest" or "story as lame as Lightning Larry Luciano" (damn a SpongeBob reference, a comparison and a hyperbole I'm getting going on this one)

Disclaimer out of the way so let's roll. ...

Definitely most people who liked the anime "Konosuba" would like this since the story tempo is similar to it and how dumb and funny it is, well the main reason is because the author of "Konosuba" and this anime is the same. The characters have unique characteristics, how the story line is kind of similar but is completely different as "Konosuba".

Now directly to the anime, the story and enjoyment, thats the main part of this anime, characters, they are all cute, sounds, wow, even though it mainly focuses on making viewers laugh, the sounds are still nice, for art, there aren't any areas where ...

An attempt to be another Konosuba but failed to do so.

Problem 1:
Story becoming more and more rushed, each episode I checked and told myself "am I watching the right epsiode?" because they keep talking about sh*t that they skipped/never happened in the anime, like wtf dude?

Problem 2:
Character inconsistency, the art of Konosuba is the fine line between degenerate character and "deep down they actually good guy". This anime initially still maintaining good balance to that but throughout the episode they went to the fully degenerate side, Snow that despite love money still sometimes despise bad act like corrupt regime, trash politican etc, then later on ...

Boring, unfunny, and disappointing. Sad really.

As many of may have heard, this series was written by the same author as Konosuba, I however had not at the time of watching the first couple episodes, so I ran into it with no expectations.

The production values are low overall, the animation is not impressive in anyway, and some still shots are just awful.

After watching episode 1, I figured the plot was non-existant, and the series treated the setting as if we had already been familiar with most of these characters, if not confusing, it rather let me wondering "why should I care about these unlikeable characters. Most ...

This anime is pretty much boring. The first episodes are interesting because you get to learn all the new characters and environment but after establishing everything it gets very boring very fast.
The characters are boring to the core. They do the same generic things over and over and the writing is lazy at best and annoying.
I just felt watching the same episode again with just slight changes. The characters are just an inferior version of the konosuba characters and have no real personality.
I can't recommend this anime if you want quality. If you feel bored out of your mind and have nothing else to watch ...

When I had heard that this was from the same person, who did Konosuba, I was instantly ready and picked this up for this season, and honestly so far, I've been a bit disappointed. I wouldn't call this show bad, as there are many elements that make it work. But comparing it to Konosuba? Konosuba is for sure better in terms of it's humor. Let me explain.

Story and characters.
Sentouin sends Six and an android in Alice, on a mission of exploration and for idea of world conquest, Setting up the idea for a going to another world type of show. The people that sent them, ...

I'll get this out of the way, I like this better than Konosuba. Then why did I rated it lower than Konosuba then? Simple, it's just my preference.

The story is simple, evil organization sends the mc to another world to conquer it. But that kind of storyline is pretty wacky and doesn't really make any sense in the long run. Like, why did they only send 1 combatant? Why didn't they send more combatants right from the very start when they sent more combatants in the latter episodes? Like, those common sense questions are just a few that comes to my mind when thinking about ...

Tl;dr: Watch it, it's very fun, and there's nobody to pester you about story.

So you're telling me that Konosuba's writer has another anime with a male lead who stands as the true lord over the whole male gender, surrounded with a harem in everything but name and... I guess the ecchi situations (truly says a lot about our society)? Well shit, I already have glasses on my face, a beer in my left hand and my dick in the other,so let's get going.

Combattants will be dispatched, with its rather straightforward name is about that evil group thing named Kisaragi, which after still being in ...

for anyone who wants to watch a fun anime to chill or relax this is one you should go and is also good for the people who want to get into anime

So, I'm gonna be honest, I was exhausted from watching too much anime last season and have not been able to watch many anime this season, but this was the first one, I finished from this season. so here it goes.

Coming from the same author t=as the Konosuba the story is funny, if I have to rank them then Konosuba is like S rank, while this can comfortably sit at the A or B ...
