I have to say that this anime was just boring but the only things I like about it are Narsena herself and the Laust's Oni form. Honesty, I was just watching it due to the female cast since the girls are beautiful.
I got a similar feeling of this with The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest due to how dull they were but I only vividly remembered them for having such lovely girls like that dragon red-haired girl Iris. |

Harsh review, though not without good reason. I still enjoyed it though, and thought Narsena's plot line was good.

I watched this show to completion, and it seemed interesting to me early on, what with the suggestion that there would be a sort of soap opera within an adventuring party as the members of BoL disagreed about the way Laust had been treated and a handsome dude who one of the girls had met in the past turned up (an ex-boyfriend?). But that possibility never came to be and the show seemed to become less and less intriguing as time went by. The Goblin attack on the town was pretty lame and unexciting. The goblins are slaughtered wholesale, conveniently transforming into drop crystals when they expire, while the only injuries the humans sustain are a handful of minor ones which are easily healed using spells. The climax, such as it was, felt very simplistic, like something schoolchildren would cook up. Two characters get impaled but are good as new at the end thanks to magic. And what was the deal with Laust's special red-eyes & horn power? He and Narsena go on a quest at the end to find the 'missing hero', which implies that the story isn't over (but I would bet that they will learn that Laust was the legendary hero all along). I would prefer that the anime wrap up here, because the degree of intrigue I was getting from this show had fallen off precipitously. Ultimately, the message seemed to be 'you shouldn't have ejected me from the adventuring party because obviously I was going to develop an unexplained but amazing ability sooner or later!'

Some of the criticisms in the review are fair (especially about Laust as a protagonist), and I'll certainly agree that this is not one of the season's better series; of the 22 I watched to completion, I rated only Arifureta s3 and Loner Life lower overall. However, I didn't find it to be the complete disaster that Jeremy did. More of a C-grade series for me, with Narsena pretty much carrying the show.
