For the OGs, if you want a classic magic/battle seinen anime with an OP main character that isn't entirely plot-protected, then this is the one. The side characters do their job; they're not amazing, but they each compliment the story in their own way. Action sequences are actually pretty well done, and the MC is already a mature adult so there's none of that beta-male-good-for-nothing MC that so many people seem to like for some reason. This isn't a story where we follow each character from 0 to hero, but where everyone is already established as themselves. By this, I mean that characters have their ownmagic and attacks etc. without having to explain it to the audience beforehand or having to have brief descriptions of these characters, which is more realistic. If you battled a random person in a magic world, as if you'd know what the opponent's skillsets are / what spells they can cast, it would all be random and you'd have to fight for your life. I've heard a lot of complaining about the fact that we're just "thrown into" this story, but I prefer the fact that we don't have to waste 4 episodes on powering up and learning the basics, our MC Orphen is already established as one of the most talented wizards in the world at the beginning of the story.
