The series is scoring a respectable 7.32/10 on MyAnimeList, but a rather disappointing 6.9/10 on IMDB – with the majority of reviews being highly critical of the main narrative.

“Overall, this just feels like a show that took a bunch of elements from various popular isekai & fantasy and thought they could come away with something good, but every one of these elements is poorly executed. Im dropping this, do yourself a favor and skip out on this one.” – User FidelCRT, via MyAnimeList.
