Review of The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash

Normally I don’t write reviews but this anime hit me personally that I felt I must- this isn’t an anime to watch for heavy fantasy plot or a complicated story line (though I do think it’s a quite unique take on the fantasy-adventure-traveller storyline with the main character shunned for being starless, cursed and lesser than others, in a village where 1-3 star ranking within skill sets determines your capability). The animation is spectacular, the characters are warm hearted and the protagonist learns many life lessons on their way to becoming independent when thrown out their village and hunted to be killed. Ivy, though onlya child who doesn’t know much about the world, takes everything bad and tries to make the best of her situation when having nobody to rely on, trust or to care for her - and a great message of the anime signals that no matter who mistreats you, no matter how many people betray you and throw you away saying you’re nothing, you can learn to cope by yourself, make the best of hard times and learn to trust again when you can find the right people to believe in you. I think that message creates an amazing, cosy feel good anime with low stakes, immaculate vibes and animation - perfect for if you’re feeling alone and want something light-hearted.

Also sora the slime is my baby and I’d die for it.
