My Thoughts on A Gatherer's Adventure In Isekai

This anime is the epidome of mid. A term that's overused a lot in anime discourse, I think this one is hte true definition. I don't think it does anything exceptionally bad to push it below the middle ground, but it utilizes a ton of tired Isekai and fantasy anime tropes and does nothing to differintiate itself from the hundreds of others like it, which makes it incredibly boring to watch in my opinion. It's about a dude that dies and is reincarnated by a God, the God of which is briefly seen as a character in the series, and the rest of the series is mostly slice of life Iyashikei, but not an entertaining one that's relaxing and funny, everything that happens after the beginning are just dull to me. It's not offensively bad, it's just forgettable, which in a certain sense might actually be worse because that makes it uninteresting to talk about and I'll forget about it probably immediately after I post this.

There were a couple snippets I enjoyed like the soy sauce fruit and….something I’ve forgotten. Omg. It’s just a knockoff of a knockoff

Come on, you can't say the name "Brolite" is forgettable XD I will remember that name to the end of my days. Brolite.

Honestly I can’t wait for whatever comes after the isekai craze.

Just remember that's the same thing the battle harem watchers said before the monkey's paw began to curl.

Battle harem? What’s this genre?

Exactly what it says on the tin. Harem anime, but everyone's ready to throw fists. Entries include High School DxD, Infinite Stratos, Chivalry of a Failed Knight, Trinity Seven, Aesthetica of a Rogue Hero, ~~and Mahou Sensei Negima if it ever got the anime adaptation it deserved.~~

Every story that's "improved" by setting it in another world now would have been fixed a decade ago by adding half a dozen girls with different hair colors swooning over the MC for reasons unknown.

The most memorable part is where he told the elves to stop committing incest.

I watched a few episodes and it just felt... there 😅 not bad enough to hate, but nothing grabbed me either, and I honestly forgot most of it right after. That kind of mid isekai is worse for me than a messy one.

Yeah, it's mid. It could have been better, the gathering skill is interesting, but then the guy is OP in magic too, which wasn't necessary, because it transforms the anime in another typical Isakai.
