Review of The King's Avatar

I usually write reviews to justify my grievances and problems with an anime and this anime has many. First, let's discuss what this anime was for me, MC has 0 character growth, which is not unusual in OP MC genre (exactly as the name suggests), but the MC here is worse. Over the course of the 12 episodes the MC has shown only one of these two expressions - A sly smile or completely expressionless. In OP MC anime, the side characters are supposed to shine. No side characters here are memorable. For the first 6-7 episodes the dialogue of side characters can be summed up as- "Oh, how is he (the MC) doing that?", "He is not human", "Wow, so good, much APM!". This is not an exaggeration.

This anime revolves around a game called Glory. Is it an MMORPG with fighting elements? Just a plain MMORPG? All we know is people play this game on KB+M and the rest is unexplained. You see people doing "stuff", but they don't make sense when we think about what is humanly possible with a KB+M. Are the characters inhuman then? No, apparently they're not top level at the world's stage.

The animation is excellent though, but as the episodes progress you'll see some repeated animations, copy pastes etc. which was fine with me. I liked the music but the voice acting sound lackluster for everyone expect the loud guys.

Overall, it's a mediocre anime which goes absolutely nowhere and does nothing with it's plot and characters.
