Another woman with breasts larger than her head and a tiny waist. I wonder how she is able to stand upright with gravity constantly pulling her down.

I wonder if there's a chance the spinoff might get licensed?

I recently tried watching I'm Quitting Heroing because the premise seemed goofy enough, but then entire portions of the starting episodes are this really uncomfortable time of the main character being a rampant sex-pest to his main co-worker. The context of each situation it happens in even amplifies the stomach-turning sensation. It's the first time in ages I've had to haaaard NOPE! myself out of something so fast. Mind you, I usually don't sit down to view something if the premise seems garbage from the outset. One Piece is fun/popular enough, but I have some thoughts about some character designs over there - Isekai Affair looks like it's straight up got 18+ situations in it, and the artist is using the story as a means/excuse to draw older-mom-looking ladies. I don't particularly mind the aesthetic, especially when something with less-provocative designs like I'm Quitting Heroing really blew chunks, but the context of "affairs and partner cheating" isn't ever a subject I'd be into reading. Folks can write/draw whatever pleases them, but it does kinda get me down that it looks like the main character is some otherwise-unremarkable "Keitaro Urashima type". Hetero couplings make it even less-interesting. I'd personally be more into something like a "My Wife and I Change Classes to Spice Up Our Marriage" series. It could retain all of the RPG tropes and humor Isekai Affair seems to be attempting, just without that icky sheen of "unremarkable guy stumbles through unrealistic wish-fulfillment segments no woman would ever be into IRL". |

What the heck are you talking about?! The only thing of note the mc does is waking the Demon general lady in the second episode because they have work to do, and other than that he wasn't the least untoward to her in that scene. Also, why exactly are you talking about I'm Quitting Heroing by a completely different author here? |

The main demon lady tells him "no" and to go home, but he shows up in a disguise and sits across from her at dinner anyways. If someone in an online game or chat room said some messed up stuff to you, then came back with a different character/face or username like nothing ever happened, would that be cool? Leo has the power to do it, so he does it anyways. It's not just that he was waking the blonde up either (uninvited & watching her sleep), he was making remarks about kissing her and other stuff about her body & her fantasy race as well. I understand that whatever was going on in his backstory, his lack of understanding social boundaries is what earned him a bad rep with his party and the villagers, but it still reads as creepy/uncomfortable to watch. In a show that mentions workplace productivity and social dynamics, they've more or less nailed what instances of "casual" workplace harassment can look like too. Isekai Affair, not dissimilar to I'm Quitting Heroing, is both in the Isekai genre and specifically honing in on a story about "what happens to the characters after the main villain is vanquished". I didn't realise until checking the airing date just now that I'm Qutting Heroing is 2 years old at this point, but I tried viewing it recently so it's on my mind at the same time Isekai Affair is (Mushoku Tensei and Delicious in Dungeon as well). I'm not particularly keen to write off Isekai Affair just because of the character on the cover - it's the context and subject matter that gives me pause & keeps me from being interested in another Kirito or Keitaro Urashima randomly fumbling through encounters with older RPG women. Delicious in Dungeon has been waaay more my pace this season - I sat down worried it was going to be a lighter slice of life comedy-cooking show, and it turned out to be a trojan horse for an actual very good D&D anime with some pretty vibrant & unexpected characters. My choosing to comment on this article here is more my lamenting that I'm definitely open to and interested in a show or book about RPG tropes and mature adult relationships - 18+ or otherwise - but I'm getting really worn out by the Isekai genre and straight male Gary Stu-adjacent protagonists at this point. In spite of my personal taste in premise & genre, if the Isekai Affair author wants to draw hot RPG moms, I'm sure there's more than enough shelf space for them to accomplish that. |

Well, being in disguise was the only way for him to get the job...
As many times I've seen a fmc waking up the mc often in violent ways while invading his privacy, excuse me if I can't be arsed to care here...
Well, duh, he's a spoiler[robot/android] so it sort of comes with the territory. For obvious reasons there's really no deep spoiler[romance] in the series... |

Both the original and this pseudo continuation of Isekai Affair are straight up hentai. If you delete the sex scenes you wouldn't get 15 chapters of plot between the 2. |

Her horns. 
Contrary to how it looks, instead of weighing her head down, it instead anchors her head to the sky and allow her to look so "bouncy". /jk

I presume the same way Power Girl from DC Comics does, super human physique. |
