I need a herooooo!!! I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the ni, ight~! Otherwise, you’d do best to stay the fuck away. If you’re looking to downgrade your IQ and waste your time, go ahead and crank this show on. For an anime that’s trying to differentiate itself on being realistic, it sure fell sorely short of the piss-poor standards it set out for itself. Lacklustre plot, lacklustre characters, lacklustre writing, lacklustre animation and OST, and dog-water-ass worldbuilding. Outside of that, you have an anime with no inherent value whatsoever. The only bright spot in this anime is the relatively accurate depiction of basic micro and macroeconomic theories and laws. Really, this is just a masked lazy attempt at making MC seem imperfect and to apply the “plan doesn’t go according to plan” trope so his main harem girl can appreciate his “imperfect character.” Apparently, I’m also supposed to believe it costs more to mass mint medals (which are never made out of pure precious metals btw, it’s always a mix) than it does to hand out royal wine reserved for the royal family and important guests? I guess I could sell my shit and become a millionaire in this world. Also, realist doesn’t do any research into surrounding settlements or try to gain approval near the planned location which leads to this “conflict” that must be resolved. What about EP 7? The new port isn’t supposed to conflict/compete with the port under the jurisdiction of the water duchess, but Souma proceeds to explain how they’ll make this port the “heart of the nation”, essentially contradicting his previous assurance to Liscia. We had a whole episode dedicated to showcasing “starving people” more untraditional food options, but you’re trying to tell me people weren’t starving enough to be desperately trying to eat whatever they could get their hands on? Pathetic, and it’s a disgrace to people who have faced/are actively facing poverty, malnourishment, or famine. Where’s the rioting? The angry citizens? The STARVING CITIZENS? You’re trying to tell me there’s a food shortage when the overwhelming majority of the low-middle class look totally healthy. Except when Souma takes over, we see literally jack shit evidence of a severe food crisis. So drastic in fact that they’re ready to sell off a hero only they can summon. The entire plot of the story is centred around a supposed food shortage that drove the nation to the brink of collapse. Everything we’re told just seems to contradict what we were previously told. Genjitsu’s worldbuilding is also filled with more holes than swiss cheese. Don’t even get me started about the romance writing: I’ve read hentai with better writing and character development than this shit. In general, the dialogue and exposition is just so 2-dimensional and bland, it sounds like it was procedurally generated using an algorithm instead of human hands. A convenient mouthpiece chick shows up in the tavern, coincidentally at the same time as the MC king, and proceeds to go on one of the longest exposition dumps in the series. I’ve seen better story dialogue writing from 4th-grade students. Light spoilers ahead (not that you’d want to watch this series anyways). Not to mention the classic harem featuring all the tropes, from loli to tsundere to elves and milf-ish baddies. Genjitsu is a horrible anime, let alone an isekai, because it is predicated on never-ending, bloated dialogue and paradoxical scenarios. And as soon as the first episode concluded, I knew I was in for a trainwreck. at the back of my head, there was a voice warning me against setting my hopes high for this series. I’ve always been a fan of realism and reform through policy, add in my economics minor which I’m studying for uni, and you’ve got me hooked on the concept of a hero saving a world through policy reform. Riddled with memes about truck-kun, harems upon harems, stupidly overpowered perfect MCs, and ridiculously long names, it’s easy to see how this genre has become one of the stalest and over-farmed genres in all of anime.īut when I first read the description for Genjitsu, I was intrigued. What was once a promising and delightful genre has now become the punching bag of the anime community.
