Well now, color me surprised. The title makes you expect nothing special and the first episode was no masterpiece but comparing it to Ossan Newbie Adventurer which has quite a few similarities to it shows how much difference a bump in quality can make.

Yes, the mc does not know how strong he is, but for once it makes sense for him to have warped sensibilities due to his upbringing (or rather the lack of). The mc is strong by using his skill but that skill is all he has and its effectiveness was not gifted to him, it was forged over the course of many years filled with effort.

Add to that the mc is likeable, the presentation is charming and people such as the intructors being reasonable and I am rather interested in seeing more.
