Okay, let's talk By the Grace of the Gods. It's about a guy, Ryoma, who dies and gets a do-over. Gods are involved. He ends up in a chill new world with slimes.
Slime City, Population: One (Plus Lots of Slimes)
Ryoma is basically living the dream. He cleans stuff with slimes. He invents things. Honestly, it's a pretty sweet gig.
Now, here's my unpopular opinion: is this show too relaxing? Sometimes, I feel like I need a jolt of caffeine after watching it.
Don't get me wrong, I like relaxing anime. But sometimes, I want a little more...oomph. Maybe a tiny dragon attack?
Where's the Drama?
Look, I know I sound demanding. By the Grace of the Gods isn't trying to be Attack on Titan. It wants to be a warm blanket.
But even warm blankets need a little tug now and then. A slightly tangled thread. You know?
Ryoma's life is just... easy. He's good at everything. Everyone loves him. Where's the struggle?
The Power of Slimes: Overrated?
Okay, I'm going to say it. The slimes are cute. They're useful. But are they really that exciting?
Ryoma is basically a slime whisperer. He trains them, breeds them. They're like his personal army of cleaning machines.
Maybe I'm just jealous. I could use a slime to do my dishes. But still, a little more variety, please!
The Kindest Isekai Protagonist Ever
Ryoma is a good guy. Super nice. Helps everyone. No complaints there.
But sometimes, I wonder if he's too good. Like, suspiciously good. Does he have a dark side we don't know about?
Probably not. This show is all about wholesomeness. But a girl can dream, right?
Still Watching, Though
Despite my gripes, I still watch By the Grace of the Gods. It's like comfort food for the soul.
It's predictable, yes. But sometimes, predictability is nice. It's like visiting your grandma's house.
You know what you're going to get. Warm cookies, a comfy chair, and maybe a slightly boring story.
My Verdict: Good, But Could Be Spicier
So, what's my final verdict? By the Grace of the Gods is a solid isekai anime.
It's relaxing, heartwarming, and features lots of cute slimes. Just don't expect any major plot twists or intense action.
I'd recommend it to anyone who needs a break from the real world. Just maybe have a cup of coffee handy. You might need it!
P.S. If anyone knows where I can get my own slime, let me know. Asking for a friend... definitely not me.
