What the hell? Where did this anime come from? This is the sleeper anime of the year for me. I would describe this anime as "if Slime isekai merged with Shield Hero and Konosuba + good writing".

After binging season 1, I can say season 2 is starting out as an absolute banger. Ep. 1 is a slight recap but not a wasted episode at all). Season 1 built up the world and story and now, Season 2 is the payoff of all that. Season 2 starts the arc of Makoto in Rostgard to learn magic, but it also starts delving into the other heroes ...

While this anime had some interesting ideas and takes on the isekai genre, they ultimately fall flat and do not add anything interesting to the plot, characters, or animation on this second season. There is absolutely nothing left unique about this anime, and even the only gimmick the main character has is never expanded on or used in any meaningful or interesting way.

Character development is abysmal, even for your average isekai. The characters don't change, and if they do something, it's only for the plot to advance, not the other way around. This point is particularly jarring, as the setup is all there for multiple ...

For me, Tsukimichi season 2 was an improvement in every way over season 1 and one of the most enjoyable shows this season. Better story, better villains, actual development from the MC, just a more entertaining watch. Turned me from someone who would doze off during Tsukimichi episodes into a fan.

This season of Tsukimichi from start to finish was a blast. The story finally felt like it got going. Whereas season 1 felt like an introduction to Makoto’s new world, season 2 feels like him finding his place in it. Moving on from just being a merchant in the background to being a character ...

Well-written

Preliminary (5/25 eps)

This anime feels like what happens when someone wanted to write trash isekai but they were accidentally really good at writing.

There's a ridiculously OP main character, but his OPness actually causes him lots of problems and isn't his one-shot solution to everything. His character is consistent but isn't just a a flat goody-two-shoes or derpy character. He's got depth and gives reason to care about his struggles.

The world has the standard adventurers guild / hero must fight the demons setup, but it's only a part of a great amount of world building. You actually get to learn the what and why of what's going on ...

The first season of this anime was way better than i expected. It drew me in with an intriguing premise and had me locked in with above average animation quality which surprised me.

Season 2 however is just straight ass compared to season 1 in every single way horribly slow pacing and so many gags in each episode that aren't even funny. It just seems like the episodes are being dragged out for no reason and I'm thinking maybe they are saving the animation quality for some fight scenes later into the season but I'm 12 episodes into the second season and this piece of garbage ...

To preface this review: I LOVE this show. This series is one of my favourites, and although it might not look like it adds much to the genre as a casual fan, as someone who has followed the manga, and indulged in far too much isekai trash over the years, it's still one I hold close to my heart. The series keeps its worldbuilding consistent, doesn't reach the core of it's mysteries too easily and uses easily digestable familar settings and themes to build a fun and solid story.

That being said, Season 2 of Moonlit Fantasy is TERRIBLE. The first few episodes are certainly ...

This season was a waste of time!

Nothing is good. Actually there is only ONE good scene with Tomoe and the hero from some place that doesn't matter.
None of the arcs matters. None of the characters matter. None of the subplots matter. Not even the main plot matters.
The first season is very good. But they just got lost in this one.

There is no real storyline. There are some arcs that doesn't matter in the end. The main character doesn't go anywhere or grow as person. He doesn't get worse either. All characters, including the MC, are just there doing something that doesn't matter ...

Surprisingly good, but marred by some cliches and tropes, and stunted by relatively average animation quality (JC Staff, it is what it is).

The praise:
- Engaging story, similar story beats to Reincarnated as a Slime but, in my opinion, play out in a more satisfying way. Sure it's still got your generic isekai power fantasy stuff, but the author has done a good job of weaving that in to a compelling story and interesting world.
- Interesting protagonist. It's an isekai with power fantasy which often leaves our protagonist a bit one note and stale. However, they manage to actually make him interesting and multi-dimensional. ...

Just take this as a hot take, because im going to review way very different than other reviews so far (Maybe later we have more reviews)

First at all, it started very weak this season, I don't know i was hyped in last season and waiting this for like 2 or 3 years i dont know maybe less than that or more than that. But anyway, i was hyped really hard. But first episode in this season is throw me off really hard. I'm okay with scene when Mc going to school/Academy (im sucker this trope) but COOKING? I know that lead to char dev but ...

Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy - Oh, good golly, Tsukimichi, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU???

I immensely loved Season 1 of novelist Kei Azumi's Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu a.k.a Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy when it first came out all the way back in Summer 2021. Being a parody Isekai, it's a perfect fit for straddling against all other stereotypical and average Isekais of the time (that unfortunately we still get now in this day and age). And as much as Season 2 was greenlit thereafter, I was eager for more of the Tsukimichi greatness in time to come.

But good God, how wrong was I to have high ...

After rewatching Season 1 and diving straight into Season 2, I couldn't help but notice that Season 1 was much more colorful and vibrant in comparison. Now, don't get me wrong, it's not necessarily a bad thing. The anime still retains its finesse, but I can't help but wonder why some studios opt for this style, especially when continuing the series. It's hard for me to see how that's an improvement.

Now, if you'll indulge me for a moment, I have a little rant to get off my chest. One unforgivable sin in anime, in my opinion, is delving too deeply into stories and relationships that ...

S2 is an absolute let down compared to the previous season. The characters are behaving like some unpolished NPC, acting and speaking in absurd manners. The jokes fall flat and the main characters appear so apathetic in certain scenes that made me question if I was watching Overlord.

There is a terrible lack of urgency in everything Makoto and his companions do since they're obviously overpowered in more than one way, so much so that it becomes too hard for the writer to create meaningful and believable conflicts perhaps? But that can't be it -- suspense and plot urgency can exist even in a story ...

Oh good grief.
How did we get from season 1 to this?

This show has really gone downhill, characters have become 2d and unlikeable, the plot makes barely any sense and the pacing, oh good grief the pacing, it's agonising. Sometimes they will just gloss over something we are told that happened but sounds incredibly important, sometimes they will take half an episode posturing and exclaiming 'damn, I've never fought anybody this strong before' 'haha, but now I will use my trump card' 'but you see, that wasn't my real *real* secret weapon'

It's like mindgames written by a 7 year old, where these edgy psylords breeze through ...

I feel like the anime had all the right elements but failed to use them properly. The protagonist was unique, the side characters were well-developed, the world was vast and full of surprises, and the power and progression systems were engaging. But all of this was ruined by long, empty dialogues and dragged-out events.

Simply put, from my perspective, the worst thing about this season is the story and the dragging out of events through empty dialogues and the characters' stupid and cold reactions. The protagonist could have intervened, saved the situation, or acted wisely, but he just waited for no reason and then intervened later.

This anime really exceeded my expectations, i thought oh its just another trashy isekai im about to watch but wait it got the Tenshura + Overlord vibes which not just my fav anime, i think its the majority of anime watcher favourites, so if you want to watch something similar to the anime i mention, give it a try, definitely worth your time.

So the story wise is very interesting im not much of a reviewer and english is my second language but the pacing is fast, they didnt drag this futher than needed, the world building is well made, there is no boring episode imo ...

A great show in a most regards although hampered slightly by poor pacing, contrived progression, and occasionally shallow characterization. Despite these flaws, Tsukimichi is still a satisfying to watch due to its various twists and turns and the detailed digressions that do well to flesh out the world and minor characters.

At first glance, Tsukimichi appears to be a poor imatation of Tensei Shitara Slime, but it excels in various aspects that the latter show fails. Due to the limited budget, the animation and music are nothing special, but are serviceable for what they are.

Ultimately, Tsukimichi changes up the formula enough to make a ...

Second season of the top-slop isekai with another banger intro by 'Syudou' (check out another of their songs "In the Back Room").

Second verse, more of the first, the show continues to be decent, but seems to suffer from poor handling of the adaptation. There are a lot of mini-arcs that don't really deliver on the impact and significance of what's going on and they spend a little too much time explaining things. I think there was supposed to be a grand plan enacted, that we never got a pay-off to, which seems to be left to continue in the third season.

Regardless, Tsukimichi is a ...
