Review of Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody

A very entertaining anime. It was very interesting and well done. The story is a bit cliche, and seems to borrow from other animes of the same genre and type, but has its own style of execution. An Isekai that revolves around our protagonist traveling from our world to a world similar or exact to a game is rather common, but having the MC be part of the main development team of the said game helps ease in an overpowered MC. Although this anime has its hiccups, it's very well done overall. The characters are probably this anime's strong point, as there are done so well. Theyeach can stand on their own and are fleshed out enough to justify it. They all work in their own different ways but have no issues with working off of each other. Of course, this only really applies to the main cast. The side characters and the one-offs are what you'd expect. They aren't much but they get the job done.

The animation is something you'd expect from any new anime, so it's good overall. Also, having the spell chanting be fast and sped up is very unique. It completely removes the long chants used in other fantasy animes and makes it really interesting.

Overall, a very underrated anime that deserves a watch. I'd even go and say that it deserves a second season! Also, Pochi and Tama are too cute for their own good, my heartaches. Give it a watch, I recommend it.
