Get ready for a one-of-a-kind fantasy story


The title alone sounded at least somewhat interesting, and it being a manga made me hope it wasn't gonna be the usual isekai LN stuff, but from the plot description that's exactly what it sounds like Confused

This sounds really generic and the studio's one other show wasn't really very good. Can't say I'm hyped.

Its ok, it's nto as good as the title implies (like it happened with death march); but it's a portal isekai and there is more emphasis in the group dynamics than usual.

Yeah, the name sounds super interesting but the plot does not give any hints that it will have any sense of gravity at all.

I seem to recall the manga got middling reviews here...

Don’t forget the convenience of having his harem jump started because those two classmates that got sent with him just happen to be smoking hot girls! Laughing
