Bad day for a pre-premiere, I'll come back when I get to watch it.

>"Support magic improves its targets' physical abilities or strengthens their equipment"

>"She created the idea of having different party members having different roles"

>"In the dungeons, you need to defeat the floor bosses to go deeper."

Does the author think nobody in the audience has ever played a party-based RPG before? Like, all of this should be common sense. You don't need to keep explaining standard RPG mechanics.

Looks like we got this season’s first “Hero Party betrayal/exile” type. I see they went with the classic “Kirito” preset in the MC character creation lol. But man, there sure are an awful lot of these types lately huh? The one thing I enjoy from these sorts is seeing the Hero’s party eat shit later.

From what I gather, this looks like animation studio42’s first series. Kind of keen to see how this thing turns out.

A really basic first episode

- MC gets kicked out of the hero's party
- saves cute girl
- things happen and how he's joining some other people who will most likely value him more than his previous teammates.

Let's see how many episodes till his former teammates come back begging him to join them again.

This is getting a simuldub. While not always the case, typically an Eng. simuldub will be two weeks behind the subbed version. Thus, the Eng. dub for Epi. 1 will likely but not not guaranteed to be two Wed. from now.

The series began on the Japanese self-publishing site Shōsetsuka ni Narō 5 years ago this Feb. 5. Just how many titles on that site have gotten anime adaptations? Accuracy of the page factored in, [wikipedia.org/wiki/Shōsetsuka\_ni\_Narō](http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Shōsetsuka_ni_Narō) currently has 199 titles that have gotten anime adaptations.

Another kick out of hero party and realizes mc is op that held them together anime. Sadly started gotta finish now.

Yep, it's a *generic OP dude gets kicked from party and has to save waifu #1 from generic monsters so that he can get hooked up with waifu #2* show. Welcome to 2026 everyone; nothing has changed, and I'll see you next week.

I'm surprised to see an anime being released today of all days.

I usually avoid anime where the protagonist is kicked out of a party, but like a few others I've enjoyed, this one started at a slow and interesting pace. The protagonist hasn't yet shown his full power or taken revenge on the other members; he simply understood his worth and is going to start his life anew, and I think that's cool.

For now, I intend to continue watching.

My planned Winter 2026 anime schedule: -Sun.: "MF GHOST"3\*
\-Mon.: "My Hero Academia: Vigilantes 2"\*; "Golden Kamuy Final Season"\*
\-Tues.: "Osananajimi to wa LoveCom"\*; "Yūsha Party"\*
\-Wed.: "Jack-of-All-Trades"\*; "Tune In to the Midnight Heart"\*
\-Thu.: "Classless Hero" Eng. dub; "Dusk Beyond the End of the World" Eng. dub
\-Fri.: "Fire Force Final"\*
\-Sat.: "Yūsha-kei ni Shosu"\*, "A Misanthrope Teaches"\*

\*Means I will also watch the simuldub.

Why can't we have a Hero Party that goes "look, we like you and everything, but it's about time we change it up and try to experiment with new members, you should strike out and broaden your horizons too" and just part way peacefully? Why does it always have to be cartoonish villains masquerading as the hero par ty?

Besides, a jack-of-all-trades that can do EVERYTHING at A-rank sounds plenty OP to me.

So far, I get the feeling that no one is really bad. Like yeah, it sucks that he got kicked out, but from Oliver's perspective, he was kind of a liability.

And then with the other party he met, it's not like they intentionally left the girl behind, the leader prioritize his close friends over a new member in a no-win situation, and if Orhun was S-rank, he must have seen it happen before at least once, so I think he was being unnecessarily angry. Looking down on them for being weak, when he himself was looked down on for being weak.

Though I haven't finished the episode yet, so my opinion may change

Seems everyone underestimates his skill as a swordsman.

Orhun Dura (Takeo Otsuka!) is a swordsman who empowers himself with support magic! In combination with his sword skills, he can really tear through monster after monster in a dungeon with the finesse of someone who can transform into CG when it comes time for action scenes!

It's only unfortunate that it wasn't enough for him to get hit with that fantasy staple: getting kicked out of the Hero's Party. the worst part is his own best friend since childhood, Oliver (Yoshiki Nakajima) is kicking him to the curb though at least he's nicer about it compared to Ameli and Derrick who really try to rub it in how useless they think he is in the party now that they're making a name for themselves. Even after he went to the trouble of converting himself to the Enchanter class and trying to make up for his and the parties' deficiencies, they're still going to replace him.

Also, being called a "Jack of All Trades" REALLY should not be seen as an insult, I'm just saying.

So of course he also probably has some sensitivity to getting abandoned, so when he realized another party left a girl who wasn't part of the childhood friend group die, he can't help but save her! Enter the cute and sweet Sophia Claudel (Hina Tachibana!)!

Dang, Sophia works fast! Orhun saves her once and she's already smitten and asking him out to dinner.

Turns out not only is Sophia part of one of the top guilds in the city, but she's also the little sister to Selma Clauden (Saori Onishi!) the busty prodigy enchanter who basically is THE enchanter and set up the current battle assortment for all parties. And she's also really overprotective of her sister, like "my sister can't have a boyfriend" and "any man who isn't interested in my sister is trash" level of overprotective. But at least she's fair enough to recognize that Orhun deserves thanks for saving her.

Ironically Selma being as good as she is is part of why Orhun got kicked out, because he couldn't measure up to her as an Enchanter, but Selma respects Orhun professionally enough to want to recruit him to help a bunch of rookie members trek through the dungeon on a teaching expedition. Though obviously Orhun isn't in any rush to be in a party again.

All the same, he can't completely resist the sisters' charms, whether it be Selma holding his hand or Sophia giving him puppy dog eyes'. Though I wonder how Selma will react when she realizes Orhun has no intention of shifting away from being a swordsman now?

I'm glad Orhun has his old man buddy (Chafurin?). Even when he's not a "Hero" any more who can get the guys' shop publicity, he's still grateful and respectful towards Orphus and understands how good a guy he is...and Orhun really needed that emotional validation if he was going to move on with his life. Starting off with his new party with the Claudel sisters!

The OP is pretty on-point for a fantasy action show, featuring all the casts and implying a future conflict with Orhun' new party and the old one. Is the green-haired girl who they replaced him with?

First anime of Winter 2026 for me and it's a banished from a party lol. It was alright, I'm wondering if Orhun's enchanting abilities are either not flashy and that's why his party felt like he was underwhelming, or their resistance levels are not compatible with his abilities. It could be the case where it's just most compatible with himself.

The banishing felt different from the normal kind where the leader isn't insufferable, it did feel like it stung a bit more than usual. The dialogue between the two childhood friends felt a bit more real, so Orhun's pain felt more genuine.

The blushing and fanservice kind of threw me off a bit because of the tone that was set lol. Hopefully this will be an entertaining one, I do find it amusing Oliver is voiced by Nakajima Yoshiki who voiced Simon in A-Rank Party.

Why do we keep getting the same anime with a slightly different cast and story?

Average plot, but animation seems good and side characters seems interesting, let's see how it goes in 2-3 EPs

I read the synopsis…

How is this formula sustainable

I some what have high hope for this one, just because Towa sama did the ED. (Ngl the formula felt like beating a dead horse by now). The character design looks good and the casting seems quite promising. Hopefully the quality stay as good or better than the 1st episode.

"Tsukasa Sensei! \~" (picture Inori saying this)

"Jinshi-sama"

Everyone is talking about the episode, I just want to talk about Tsukasa-sensei getting the starring role in yet another Lit-RPG. Looking forward to watching the upcoming studio GoHands adaptation of "Heavy Knight".

I am frustrated to see so little glazing/simping over Tsukasa in this comments section. For shame.

Even if this is generic as can be, gotta say, those sword movement were pretty cool, maybe there is a bit of hope in this anime.

edit : fixed a typo

[removed]

Tired of these types of anime

Nobody going to mention that their OWN writers screwed up their own show's title?!!

At the end it shows the full title which is "YUUSYA Party..." not Yuusha 😩

So, in D&D terms, Orhun is a gish, a.k.a. a fighter/mage. This is an extremely strong RPG archetype if the system supports it (most do) and one of my personal favorites to play. It allows a strong baseline performance (as a fighter) with buffs and tactical/utility support spells that allow for combat strength to spike as needed to meet the threat, and overcome challenges a fighter could not do on their own.

Another cookie cutter “kicked from the party” anime. Well at least the animation isn’t awful. I didn’t really expect anything but enjoyable slop and that’s what it seems like.

This is a super generic first episode but it wasn’t terrible.

Going off what we see in the ED/OP at the end, his “party of none” status won’t last very long. And his former party is insanely stupid to give up someone who’s apparently A-rank in pretty much every aspect. His childhood friend seemed like he was pressured into kicking MC out though.

At least his former party wasn’t extremely nasty about booting him out like how it is in some of the other banished from the party anime.

I am a little confused about the situation with the girl he rescued. She was abandoned by the low rank party but later says she entered the dungeon by herself

Another forgettable piece of banishslop

It's one of those kinda things, you know.

The childhood friend was actually trying to be gentle while kicking MC out, which is new.


That said, if the person they used as a reference for MC being "weak" actually admires MC, they will have a surprise soon.


This anime is nothing new, but I liked the way it was executed, ngl

I chuckled a bit when it was the cutie patooie 14 year old that got the MC to pause for a long while and reconsider his options.

...you are not deny the allegations there my man

Onee san you gotta work harder

Your typical fast-food fantasy of the season. Not even worth going past EP1

The former friend and party leader was less sneeringly evil than normal, it just came off as a firing. The two other party members made up for it, though.

Old man at the end was nice, sometimes you just need to talk to a wiser and older acquaintance.

Kind of weird that Selma is who came up with the party organization system in the first place, but I suppose someone would have had to develop it. Seems oddly recent for a world with an established adventurers and dungeons system.

Welp. It looks like I have my first drop of the season. Nothing really new here.

My one annoyance is the justification…. So you expect the guy to be better than the leader of another S rank guild who solely revolutionized the way we do dungeons and her whole sole class is… enchanting? What? Now if she was the one that joined then I’ll shut my mouth but this? Nah…. Weak

[removed]

The title jack of all trades master of none always made me chuckle. It gets negative connotations all the time, but isn't really a bad thing.

Animation seems solid, story line is generic, mood seems good. Ill let it cook, see how it does for the rest of the season.

Might be playing the hits, but at least the hero's party kicked the MC out for a valid reason this time, even they were kind of being jerks. I mean they forced him into a role he didn't want, then fired him for not being min/maxed, but at least they understand the value of support magic.

Been getting real sick of shows where the hero's party is comically dumb and fires their support out of a mix of ego, not understanding team comp, or not realizing that their support member was well above average.

It's a low bar, but at least they cleared it on this one.

waiting on the replacement telling the party what they ask them to do is impossible.

"Don't tell me you went into the dungeon alone?"

"...Yeah"

...But she didn't? She went in with a party that abandoned her? Guess we're not mentioning that to her. Like they mentioned without the clan's permission so that's not technically what they meant by alone anyway but seems like a strange thing to just brush over. Well, right afterwards he also talked as if he was the one that decided to leave the party rather than getting kicked out. Maybe it's just intentional that characters don't want to mention things here.

This is your typical generic power fantasy, but at least this one states on the title that he knows every aspect of being an adventurer given that he is a jack of all trades.

Historically, Jack of all trades is meant to be someone that is an expert on everything, before the true meaning was lost and it became a jack of all trades master of none. Pretty sure the MC is OP.

"Support magic has one weakness... it doesn't last forever", he says. And then he proceeds to immediately recast it.

"She's the one who made enchanters famous, ***AND CREATED THE IDEA OF DIFFERENT PARTY MEMBERS HAVING DIFFERENT ROLES***." excuse me????? how did adventurers - or any organization at all - get ANYTHING DONE before this?????? how did NO ONE come up with the idea of organizing a group by task assignment before??????

boy oh boy how myopic must the worldbuilding be

"Did you go to the dungeon alone?" "yeah" no????? no she didn't????? I'm pretty sure she went with a party??????? -- oh without telling her clan............... i guess.

Is this good? Or just another cheap fantasy anime?

I was wondering whether my first new show of the season would be “banished” trash or “isekai” trash. Either way it’s a good start to the new season!

And yes I am aware I am part of the problem lol.

Feels like it's been a while since I've seen an MC looking so Kirito-Aincrad-like.

I really hope if there is a primary love interest, it's the older sister and the youngling just has a crush.

Kind of cliched. The MC gets kicked out of his monster hunting party because he's not good enough then finds a new job. The premise isn't that compelling either: an enchanter who started doing that because it was in demand, but he prefers being a swordsman. They also didn't really leave an intriguing hook for what's to come, like he's going to go to a dungeon and teach new adventurers.

The one part I did like that I didn't predict was how it seemed like Sophia was abandoned by her party but she actually went into the dungeon alone and that party was more just wracked with guilt that they probably weren't strong enough to take on that many monsters to save her and they may have all or mostly ended up dead. They didn't do that much with that though, like making Sophia a dangerous lunatic who goes off on her own and puts herself in constant danger, it seems she just more made a stupid mustake and lucked out having Orhun save her.

Also, why in every one of these shows does the party that kicked the person out have to be super mean to him for no reason? Oliver was more diplomatic but the other guy and girl were just rude and mean to him for no reason. I know it's to make you dislike the original party, but it's so lazy and overdone. It's like akin to a band firing one of their members because they want someone better; they aren't as mean to the person as possible.

Maybe this show appeals more to people who just love fantasy shows about adventurers in dungeons but not much meat on the bone.

Lol guess we get one a season now :) still I love them anyway!

Least there wasn’t much drama on the kicking out of party but hilarious they did so after comparing him to the best enchanter in the world who invented the party roles system. The same enchanter who he worked on the raid who rated his skills highly … and he isnt even specialised at the role and only did it cos noone else was able to and invented original magic to do so 🤦‍♂️getting beast tamer vibes where they will be shown moaning at the new enchanter why they cant do xyz and itll be “but no enchanter can do that”

First 5 seconds, hey it's Kirito.


First 2 mins. Hey it's Kirito Kicked from the Heros Party.


Sure to be an original...

dropped after episode 1. it's not even generic. it's too bland.

I eat this stuff up. NUMNUMNUM~

Genuine question, as someone who's never on this sub. Why is there so much hate on something that seems (or even is) generic? Especially this early into a series.

My favourite story of all time starts off super generic and bland for at least the first 20-30 hours. But even then it was pretty solid. I genuinely don't think the material needs to be unique for it to be good.

I'm not asking to like it, there's not much to discuss for a single episode afterall, but the general view seems very bad. or those willing to drop or not watch based on someone's opinion who hasn't even read the manga.

MC gets kicked out of the hero's party

Saves cute girl who start crushing on him 

 He joins another group who will most likely value him more than his previous teammates.

🙄 Aha shit here we go again. 

As soon as I see "banished from the heroes party" I'm in! Just to see if the series will do anything different or if it at least has likeable characters. (I don't have high expectations though.) I also need 1-2 of those easy to watch mindless series inbetween the more "serious" and high profile stuff.

One thing that immediately made no sense again is how his ex-party couldn't compute how useful an A-Rank multitalent is. Why not just hire the specialist enchanter in addition to him and make him a fighter with bonus support skills? That was so dumb. It's not like they had to carry him through the dungeon, then it would've been understandable at least.

No source reader here, but these formulas are just so generic that I bet this will happen:

They will later find out that his specially invented enchantment magic is actually better than what other enchanters use. And during the raid, the top enchanter girl performed worse than Orhun and his party blamed it on him because he was self-taught so he obviously had to be not as good as a real enchanter. And it will make absolutely no sense again for him to be so oblivious about how other enchanters perform to even argue the point. lol


I loved how the big sister casually explained the common mmo carry methods. Except they don't seem to have levels in this setting which means the low levels/newcomers don't get actual fighting experience from sitting out the boss fights. Won't they just be screwed on the lower floors by themselves if they got carried there?! What could possibly go wrong? lol

Lets go Towa with her first Anime Opening!
Love the Song!

started watching this only because of her and so far the story seems..okay
