Review of I'm Standing on a Million Lives
I hate long reviews. Conclusion: Comedy anime, not quite on Konasuba level, but with a lot of self awareness on typical isekai tropes. Main protagonist is a strong male /r/im13andthatsdeep subredditer, who needs to complete a mission (10 in total (completion conditions are quite random)) whenever summoned by game master. Weak harem subplot in the background. 8/10. Long: Maho Film studio uses light colors and few shadows, makes everything look warm and slice of life-ish. All characters annoyed me, but because the hero group keeps on growing and several plot-lines happen simultaneously, this inflated novelty keeps me invested whole episode-long. MC is edgy, loved it. Liked theanimation. I think going more into Made in Abyss thematic would suit this story better, aka same warm color scheme for both unnerving and slice-of-life moments. The ridiculous tone shifts can be dialed up in season 2.
