Review of The Aristocrat's Otherworldly Adventure: Serving Gods Who Go Too Far

I love Isekai, if it's not some mindless fun, guilty pleasure of a series, then it just isn't done right. This isn't just done right, it is a full on trash isekai, and it knows it, it is entirely self-aware of what it is, it is aware of its over the top ridiculous nature. This series is a comedy, it doesn't take itself seriously, instead it mocks itself and much of the subgenre that at times with obvious moments of satire. The MC dies a heroic (but we are told ultimately pointless) death and is reincarnated, the death has a lot of similarities with Kazuma from Konosuba, exceptthe nature of it isn't quite so stupid. He steps in to save two girls being attacked by a guy with a knife, gets stabbed and dies, yet we're soon told that his intervention wasn't needed, as things would have worked out anyway.
But due to his stepping in and changing things, the attacker did end up getting charged with murder, and not attempted assault. (As I said, there are obvious moments of satire)

Due to being reincarnated, and due to the blessings of the gods, the MC ends up OP, because it's an isekai and we have to have an OP MC, but this is no power fantasy anime, because being OP as he is doesn't make his life easier, instead it makes it more difficult, as events and his lack of awareness / restraint all result in him not being able to live the 'normal' or 'peaceful' and unassuming life that he would like to live.

The MC is also an 'accidental harem' protag, because of cause he is, but don't worry, because he's not going to get off easily with that either, as he keeps getting called out and put on full blast repeatedly for it, which is refreshing to see.

I will say that the pace of the series, in terms of the passage of time / the time skips / jumping from different ages for the MC as he grows up throughout the course of the series - that isn't great, I'm not sure how it could have been done better, maybe they could have done more to 'show the passage of time' rather than just outright skip it, but that is just me.

However the pace of the series in terms of the flow of scenes/action works really well, as there is never a dull moment, and it doesn't feel overly rushed either. (I've not read the source material, so I don't know what has or hasn't been skipped, because the likelihood is that it has skipped things as that is always the case in these adaptations, I only judge on the anime presented to me)

This series does have issues, it isn't perfect
The story is 'thin' the characters are 'thin'
It also just doesn't do enough to rise above the pack.

It looks as you would expect, it sounds as you would expect, there is no bad CG that distracts you from the series and takes you out of your watching experience.
It is extremely entertaining, and just mindless fun, which is exactly what you want from an isekai.

All in all, if you like Isekai, and if you like trash isekai, then this is for you.
For everyone else, skip, because seriously, if you don't like isekai, don't watch it, because seriously, all those people who hate Isekai so much, you can just choose to not watch it, no one is forcing you to watch these things.
