This is without a doubt an anime to "pass the time", one of those animes where you turn off your brain and don't worry about understanding the story or the character development, one of those animes that you put in the background while you do homework or clean .

It's actually not bad, it's just mediocre, just another isekai to kill some time.

You will like it if:
◼ Do you like isekai
◼ You don't like to think, or you don't want to do it
◼ If you just want something to kill some time

You will not like it:
◼ If you are looking for a deep story with development ... and intrigue
◼ If you have expectations
◼ You like that anime stand out for a "star" genre (Everything here is "meh")

Español:
Este es sin duda alguna un anime para "pasar el rato", uno de esos animes donde apagas el cerebro y no te preocupas por entender bien la historia ni el desarrollo de personajes, uno de esos animes que colocas de fondo mientras haces tarea o limpias.

En realidad no es malo, simplemente es mediocre, un isekai más para matar el rato.

Te gustará si:
◼ Te gustan los isekai
◼ No te gusta pensar, o no quieres hacerlo
◼ Si solo quieres algo para matar el rato

No te gustará:
◼ Si buscas una historia profunda con desarrollo e intriga
◼ Si tienes expectativas
◼ Te gusta que el anime resalten por un género "estrella" (Aquí todo es un "meh")

Another isekai anime where the Mc doesn't have to struggle to get power and is strong from Day 1.

Start : The start is kinda meeeh.A 30 year old man who slacks off in his room (Just like me) dies and then meets godess who makes him the strongest so he can live in another world and enjoy his life.

Power : The thing that doesn't make any sense here is his skill.His skill is barrier but man can lift things and make himself talk,make robots and t.v etc.

Animation : The animation is Okay.

Enjoyment : If uh are a isekai lover and don't really care about the ... power logic then go ahead and watch.

I will preface this review by saying I generally love the Isekai genre, and I like trash Isekai for the pure enjoyment factor that it offers

That being said, the Spring/Summer seasons has given us many poor offerings and too few gems for Isekai fans with either mediocre series, or series that are just dull or outright bad.

Fortunately this series is not dull, but while it did have enough to grab my initial attention and was entertaining enough to keep me watching, it was the very definition of mediocre.
This series took a paint-by-numbers approach to creating an isekai series, there is very little original here, and ... in a space where you need a unique twist to stand out amongst the crowd, all this does is tick off all the cliches one by one.
So in the end there is nothing special here, it is highly forgettable, and while comedy is highly subjective, for me, the comedy here just didn't 'land'
The ending is also unsatisfactory as it seems to expect a second season to pick things up and conclude events, yet I am not convinced this series has done enough to 'earn' a second season.

This series isn't 'bad' not in an objective sense, there are a few ways this could have been bad, but it managed to avoid them,
The animation is average, the sound is average, the story is average.
Also for it to be 'bad' it would have had to have done something different, to actually take a chance at being different and then failed, but this doesn't attempt to be anything special or to stand out. You can't fail if you don't take any chances.
Finally, it could have been dull and boring, yet this does manage to be entertaining.

In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who doesn't enjoy trash isekai, and even then I would caution people that this is nothing special and one that will be forgotten about quickly.

well the story is mid as it tires to do everything half baked ! the humor is too illogical to digest, the action scene had some potential but executed half heartedly, the background score was average at best, male lead is somehow a good one but not utilized by the plot well & the plot theme is so much interesting but is ignored several times, honestly i started to watch this series because somewhere i saw that this has harem & romance with an op male lead ! boy i was wrong ! as the male lead is powerful but not shown that much which ... is not big of an issue for me if this has some romance and harem moments ! there are mostly female around the male lead but they don't feel like a romantic interest, they rather feel like some friends ! the one thing that kept me going was how much light hearted it was ! this is a chill one time watch type of show ! so as for me it's - 6.2 stars / 10 stars !

Anime that can be enjoyable for some people, but can also be disappointing for others. It is a fun and entertaining anime that will make you feel good and amazed by the power of Haruto, but it is also a light-hearted and thrilling anime that will make you feel bored and annoyed by the lack of originality and depth. If you like isekai, harem, slice-of-life, and ecchi genres, you might like this anime. But if you are looking for something more serious and complex, you might want to skip this anime.

The good points of this anime are:

-The comedy is well-done and hilarious. The anime ... has a lot of funny and "fanservice scenes" that will make you laugh out loud. The
interactions between Haruto and the other characters are amusing and entertaining.
-The fantasy setting is interesting and immersive. The anime explores a world where magic rules all over, and there are various races
and creatures. The anime also shows the secrets of this world and Haruto’s own destiny.
-The voice acting is excellent and fitting. The voice actors do a great job of portraying the characters’ emotions and personalities. The
opening and ending songs are catchy and fit the mood of the show.

The bad points of this anime are:

-The plot is cliché and predictable. The anime follows the typical isekai tropes, such as being reincarnated with cheat powers, having a
harem of girls, and being involved in royal feuds and assassination plots. The anime does not offer anything new or original to the
genre.
-The characters are shallow and stereotypical. The anime does not develop the characters well, and they are mostly defined by their
appearance and role. The female characters are mostly there for fanservice, and the male characters are mostly there for comic relief
or antagonism.
-The animation is mediocre and inconsistent. The anime does not have a high-quality animation, and it often suffers from poor art and
animation. The character designs are bland and generic, and the action scenes are lackluster and boring.

Another generic isekai with an overpowered main character and a simple generic plot. Though it still functions as another simple and comfortable way to spend your time.

Am I Actually the Strongest plot revolves around Haruto, who is led to believe he is weak and barely has any powers, but actually is incredibly strong. You then follow him trying to build a lifestyle where he can live as a shut in, that just can have a simple comfortable life. He is of course forced to use his powers to protect the lifestyle he so desperately wants, which slowly makes him realize that he might not be ... as weak as he thought.

The plot and characters are pretty generic and are not that deep, it is more relying on its simplicity and humor. Which doesn’t bring something that is extremely interesting, but is enough to still be entertaining.

Animation is pretty simple and doesn’t have anything special to it, though it doesn’t have any clear animation problems. For the music is it not that impressive either, but once again isn’t bad in any way.

I would overall say it’s a generic fantasy isekai, where it doesn’t do anything special, but can still be entertaining. So if you like the genre and just want something simple to watch would I recommend it, but if you want something more out of an anime would I look elsewhere.

I'll watch any isekei anime, even this one! If you love isekei anime, this is worth watching. If you don't absolutely love isekei, I recommend you give this a hard pass so you don't hurt your brain. It's fun to watch, but it really makes no sense how barrier magic, the protagonist's only skill, can substitute for literally anything. The MC is way too OP, and has no ambition just like this anime. So why did I give this a 7? Because I will take any isekei, even this one. This is one of those shows you watch once and then forget about forever. But ... it's still watchable. There's no real drama or progression, but IMO it is at least better than the type of isekei that tries to be serious but fails miserably while we cringe at the whiny dumb MC. It is unique in one way: I think this is the first anime I reviewed that I didn't have to worry about accidentally giving away spoilers. I don't really think it's possible to give any spoilers because nothing really happens lol.

This is a budget version of The Eminence in shadow.

Instead of MC being chunni, it is his sister who becomes chunni after watching anime via MC's magical streaming skill (yeah. MC is almost god level as he can do almost anything including connecting to google search). And she has all these delusions of our MC being a secret hero of justice, fighting some evil organization etc.. and MC can't refuse his sister's desire because she too cute, so he goes out and fights some evil now and then.

I will be honest. while i was watching this, the only thought in my mind was ... "This is boring. I should just rewatch The Eminence in shadow instead". Because the story, animation, characters, dialogue and such was so boring, that i felt sleepy sometimes. Even the supposedly serious situations were just lacking any tension or charm.

If you have not watched The Eminence in Shadow, this may be worth watching. But if you already watched it, then this series may be a little disappointing. The main reason i gave this a 6/10 is because this is still better than the usual isekai garbage out there.

*** MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD ***
Note: My reviews are like a note for my future self. I try to not spoil anything in it, because in the case I want to rewatch the show, I don't want to know too much about it other than what I think I will remember or surface level details that don't really matter much. I just want to make sure my future self understands a bit of how I felt about it and why I gave this mark.

Review start:

Two words: thrash isekai. Surprised, aren't you? No? Okay, I wasn't as well. I knew what I would get myself into by ... the ratio of recommended and not recommended reviews and the mark... And I kinda share the same sentiment. I did finish it, so... yea... It is a thrash isekai, alright? BUT, it has one redeeming quality: it knows that and tries to make fun of that. Does it do well tho? Uhh... yea, I would call it hit or miss here. The MC realizes the cliches and stuff, but that really doesn't mean that he does much about them than pointing them out mostly and going with them. But it is a nice touch I guess. Also, the number of references to other animes... and the blatant copy and usage of them is... maybe funny to some.... Still had enough fun to finish it, so there is that.

Story: 7

What story? Brother reincarnated that is OP af and has a lil sister that he loves a lot and does whatever she wishes? And he keeps getting caught up in situations because he cannot say no? Even tho at each step he complains and wants to just be a shut in? And the story is something that when an event comes, right at the start, you can guess 90% of it? Yea, story.

Art: 7

Bro, pull down the damn lighting a few notch. For real though, I never seen an anime where I thought "Man, why is everything so bring", like you would do in photoshop on an image by increasing the contrast and such. Thank God that it wasn't in every scene... The art was okay overall, the fights, okay?. Nothing special in anything. Kinda weird character design, especially for the loli MC... idk, the eyes still put me off a bit...

Music: 7

Meh, generic OP and ED.

Characters: 7

Good characters? Character growth? Man, have you forgotten what this is? Thrash isekai. So yea, no wonder there isn't anything good when it comes to characters. There was one character growth that I actually seen and was surprised, someone gets a macho body, but he appears for like a few scenes and nothing more. Side character. The rest? Yea, they remain the same... no changing... no backbone... no nothing. MC still complains a lot but he also goes "I gotta do it", loli sister is still loli sister even after time skips (???), and the dynamic seems to be stagnant, only the environment changes. And because they are so one dimensional, you can actually know what will kinda happen. There are some surprises tho, but not worth to balance it back up to an okayish verdict. And they pull a lot of stuff out of their asses when it comes to a lot of situations... especially powers... Oh, mb tho, there was some character development for MC, but it came so suddenly and so out of nowhere and right at the end that it caught me off guard... but it s at the end, so it doesn't matter cuz most likely no season 2.

Enjoyment: 7

Enjoyed it enough to finish it, but I will most likely won't rewatch it. I was kinda relieved when I finished it...

Overall: 8

Right now it has 6.51 from 65.018 votes Ranked #6643 Popularity #1610 Members 137,511. It is an okay mark in terms of mal marks. I gave it a 7 because on my list it is what it deserves. It didn't make me cringe much or anything and it was enjoyable enough to finish it. But in the end, it is just another thrash isekai that you should watch to pass time and not think much. I wouldn't actively recommend it to anyone that hasn't watched their fair share of anime and are left with not much okayish stuff to watch when it comes to choosing something to pass time in a nice way...

"Am I Actually the Strongest?" is a series that caters to fans of overpowered protagonists, providing an enjoyable yet undemanding experience. The anime, unfortunately, falls short in certain areas that might leave some viewers wanting more.

For those who revel in the exploits of seemingly invincible main characters, this show delivers on that front. The protagonist's powers, however, lack a solid foundation and reasoning, which might disappoint those seeking a well-defined world with intricate world-building. The narrative tends to prioritize the spectacle of overpowering abilities over a coherent and immersive fictional universe.

The animation, while serviceable, is quite basic, lacking the visual flair that many modern anime ... enthusiasts have come to expect. It doesn't excel in pushing boundaries, making it less appealing to those who value cutting-edge animation.

Fans of light ecchi elements will find occasional moments of fan service sprinkled throughout a few episodes. However, these instances are not consistent enough to be a primary reason for watching the series. The inclusion of such elements might serve as a brief diversion, but they don't significantly contribute to the overall appeal of the show.

As of 2023, the manga and light novels are still in production, leaving the door open for a potential second season. This might be enticing for those who find promise in the source material, as additional seasons could explore and expand upon the story and characters.

One notable drawback is the duplication gimmick employed in the narrative. This aspect detracts from a sense of character growth, as the protagonist conveniently avoids taking responsibility by creating duplicates. This narrative choice may leave some viewers yearning for a more traditional and linear character development arc.

In the end, "Am I Actually the Strongest?" manages to be light-hearted enough to enjoy casually. It excels in providing a simple and undemanding viewing experience, making it suitable for those who are content with the thrill of watching an overpowered protagonist without delving too deep into intricate plotlines or well-defined character arcs.

Seasonal Isekai. Kind of your typical seasonal isekai. You have the obligatory busty female characters, the op protagonist, and anti-climatic death pre-reincarnation. The animation is kind of mid in terms of the quality from frame to frame. Not a lot of detail, but consistent and clean. In terms of the few action scenes we get... it actually look pretty decent. Characters don't really have any depth to them, but they're decently likable, and amusing. The story is really bog standard. No real world building, and the story itself has very little depth or substance. Pacing is fine, a little slow at times, but not to ... a unwatchable extent. Voice acting is really average(aka dubbed = bad). Not standout performances and there are more than one grating/shrill characters. The casting is okay I guess? Like I don't look at a character and say, nah they don't sound like that. Soundtrack is fine, but I hardly noticed it. OP/ED are fun, but really quite average. Overall it's fun from time to time, but I would say it's more amusing than entertaining. 6.0/10

Story: 2/5 unique
Art style: Good
Character's well-roundedness: 3/5 author took one or two traits and went with it

The anime itself is a fun watch if you are looking to skim or speed through something during a meal. It does have unnecessary fan service, an unnecessary amount of "I love my brother""I want to bath with my brother" moments which is annoying. But if you are just skipping around, its not long enough to disrupt the plot.
Would not suggest this anime to anyone looking for a serious-not-skipping-a-single-moment watch.
Only reason I have a somewhat higher rating is because compared to some other bottom of the barrel reincarnation ... series, this one is a lot better and more tolerable.
