Review of My Unique Skill Makes Me OP Even at Level 1

Like many shows in the genre, we have a generic fantasy, medieval-type world with dungeons, adventurers and the commonly used role-playing game UI, with levels and stats, where the MC is an overworked individual who died in Japan and reincarnated in this "new world", which itself is a plot-thread that gets about 20 seconds of screen-time and explanation. The gimmick for this show/story is that the MC is locked at level 1 and therefore cannot level-up, nor can he increase his stats. However, unlike anyone else in this fantasy world (to our knowledge in this season), his drop-rate stats are all S-Rank, making it so thatwhenever he defeats a mob, he gets guaranteed, better quality, and higher amounts of loot.

This show did initially show a hint of promise, and I thought it could go more along the lines of "Campfire Cooking in a New World", with the MC being generally weak, but being backed-up by much stronger companions.

Unfortunately, rather than going the route of something like "Campfire Cooking", the story sets up a massive plot contrivance, in the form of a dungeon that is useless to every single person in this world except the MC, as his S-Rank drop-rate means he is the only one who gets drops from the mobs that spawn in said dungeon.
What are these drops? Well, they are magical seeds that allow him to increase his stats, without ever levelling up.
Of course, this allows him, as is typical with bottom-of-the-barrel trashy isekai stories like this, to become busted OP, as he gets most of his stats maxed-out, therefore completely nullifying the entire premise of him being stuck at level 1 with bad stats, all by the end of the second episode. Basically, there was almost no reason to even have that as a plot point or namesake.

Note: I do not consider that to be spoiling the story, given that all of this is shown within the first episode or two.

Now, again, there are hints that something interesting could be going on, as the MC reincarnates through being a mob drop, which is shown to have happened previously through flashbacks from another character, however what they experience is quite different to what happens with the MC.
Unfortunately, outside of said flashback being a poor attempt at giving said side character some background, it doesn't get touched or expanded on in this season of the anime at all.

On the topic of the characters, I will give the anime a modicum of credit as they are somewhat varied, however they get very different levels of background and story.

Overall, with some of the choices this anime made, with how some plot threads are not touched upon at all (the flashback stuff), and the fact that at least 2 of the main cast don't get any real backstory, I can't help but think that the producers of this show were thinking that they'd be guaranteed a season 2.

However, with how middling this show ended up being, somewhat because of said choices, I really cannot be sure whether a season 2 will ever come to pass, although much worse shows have been greenlit for such in the past.

What this means, is that this show ends up becoming another typical trashy isekai to add to the ever-growing list of them that are pumped-out a dime-a-dozen each year since the mid-late 2010s.

It's watchable, but it's definitely one of the "turn your brain off" type of shows. 5/10.
