This was pretty alright for a haremshit isekai
What is (You)r opinion on it?
Death March something Isekai

It's shit and herald the the coming of the really shit isekai (the first few before it were the better ones it's only downhill from here).

Reviews of the anime have fans either loving it or hating it. Derided as Satou’s Harem March by critics, one review called the DesuMachi anime misogynistic trash because the main character, Satou, gathers a harem of literal slave girls and technically does not free them from slavery. Worse, one of these girls, Arisa, is a Shotacon-loving Japanese woman stuck in a reincarnated 11-year-old body who attempts to seduce him because Satou is stuck in a younger-looking body. He declines, but it still comes down to an older “hero” choosing not to sleep with an 11-year-old former princess-turned-sex slave.
Defenders of the anime point out that Satou does not treat the girls like slaves and they’re more like an adopted family, not a stereotypical anime harem (even though they insist on the master/slave relationship based on cultural imperative). Satou is also not a lolicon who takes sexual advantage of the girls, and in Episode 11 he states, “As your guardian, it’d be ethically wrong to lay a finger on any of you.” On the other hand, Arisa openly believes she’s part of a harem.
The main criticism of the anime adaptation has been the slow pacing and the fact that the story conforms to many isekai genre tropes. Some critics consider Satou’s character to be banal and he’s technically even more overpowered than Ainz from the Overlord anime. On the positive side, the anime’s plot doesn’t get swamped down in harem rom-com antics like so many isekai anime (think Isekai wa Smartphone). Fans point out that the anime’s pacing is more like a slice-of-life fantasy intermixed with the occasional action sequence and high-level-creatures-turned-into-food anime.

>slow pacing
Is that supposed to be some sort of joke? This series was rushed as hell. And as it's another "lore-heavy series", it's only making it worse.
I mean sure, compared to some anime that shove entire LN volumes into mere 2 episodes, Death March is not nearly as bad, but a lot of important stuff was still just powered through anyway.
Jackson Sullivan
>Defenders of the anime point out that Satou does not treat the girls like slaves and they’re more like an adopted family,
Treating them like family is a flaw of the series, not something to defend it with.

absolute garbage; animu was practically a 1:1 of the first 3 novels, with the exception that is was somewhat enjoyable and a few unimportant scenes trimmed out. how anyone could read any of the novels or kickoff where the animu ended is beyond me, because it was a total bore. pure garbage, I eventually resorted to skimming and dropped it right where the animu ended, at the end of the 3rd novel. fuck that shit.
Nicholas Davis
If Arisa and Ichirou fuck each other, will they both be considered pedophiles?
Luke Anderson
Would be a lot better without the harem shit. That goes for most dick led isekai though.

Why do you care?
Are you a normalfag?
>posting review
Are you retarded?
Ryan Myers
They should have done it already.
Evan Robinson
Why do you care if I care?
David Price
You asked first, normalfag.
Justin Powell
I'm level 1 million but I'll pretend I'm level 1 for no reason and not bother helping make the world a better place and just chill with my slaves in a caravan but won't fuck them because too beta
Jordan Wilson
Its not much of an isekai as far as genre conventions are conserned. The melding of game physics with real world consequences is always interesting. Like how he can keep food hot in his inventory. And that discovery is used as a plot point when making potion bottles.
That's the kind of problem solving an otherworlder needs to bring to an isekai. Something natives can't do for themselves. Or the other way around, the mc takes something away from the experience.
I might be confusing it with how not to summon a demon lord, but the revelation that bugs, deleted content, and unpublished histories, is an interesting thought experiment. Going in "write your own ending" territory.
Jaxon Russell
>level 1 million but I'll pretend I'm level 1 for no reason
He accidentally one of the factions at day 1.
That's something to keep to yourself.
>not bother helping make the world a better place
How about repeatedly defeating malicious entities of apocalyptic scale?
>but won't fuck them because too beta
He has a type and only golem fits it in the harem.
Other members won't let him fuck just golem alone so he just visits brothels.
Your post is shit, you are shit, you should be ashamed of that.
Andrew Williams
the web novel is good
Cameron Butler
No, you're the normalfag
Charles Brooks
He fucks brothel whores
Nathan Adams
It got me to watch Smartphone again, so that’s something
Leo Robinson
Arisa isn't a sex slave. She's probably still a virgin in fact.
Leo Robinson
Why did she and her sister automatically prepare their pussies for their new owner, then?
Xavier Gutierrez
Because Arisa has a baby-face/Shota fetish, she wanted to have sex with Satou and pulled her sister into it.
Caleb Green
moral of the story
never trust a thirsty fujo
Jeremiah Garcia
Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku was memorable. Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There was good. This? It was just shit, plain and simple.
Lincoln Cox
I mean she went as far as to use her unique skill several times to somehow barely get lvl300+ Satou into a charmed state... and even that didn't last for long enough to "enjoy" herself.
Samuel Brown

The absolute state of Death March fags.
Cooper Powell
>lets thots dictate his actions
>not beta
Really made me think.
Camden Rogers
Shouldn't she be around Satou's level too?
Elijah Evans
>lets thots dictate his actions
>refuses to compromise
>fucks whores instead
Fucking retard.
How new
John Foster
If he wants to fuck a golem and won't because his orbiters would be jelly then he's a beta. As simple as that.
Blake Brown
Is Nana autistic or mentally handicapped?
Ayden Nelson
They pretty much physically won't let him.
All or none, he chooses none and fucks whores.
Elijah Edwards
>physically won't let him
It's getting more and more pathetic. Please stop.
Jordan Reyes
Harem has seniority, plebeian.
Anthony Baker
Harem is superior to me, but an MC that won't stand by his beliefs and fuck the person he want to fuck is a faggot of highest order.
Jayden Cox
Very green mentality.
Evan Price
I'm assuming she likes him too. Letting your friends cockblock you is so fucking pathetic.
Levi Flores
>I'm assuming she likes him too.
Everyone in harem likes him.
Him not fucking lizard just because her self-esteem issues is more of an issue than not fucking a golem.
Lincoln Campbell
It sounds sadder by the post. I will fuck off now.
Ryan Bailey
MC reasons are superficial.
Publisher' and author' however, are not.
Andrew Gutierrez
The setting is kinda interesting but the MC and the plot are garbage.
Justin Fisher
Sounds like your life.
Zachary Adams
no u
Andrew Richardson
Wasn't MC in love with some 100 million year old goddess? She very briefly appears in the show but no context is given to who she is at the time
Leo Russell
He's a god on amnesia vacation too.
Matthew Foster
Was she the rainbow hair girl?
Colton Rivera
Apparently he was her lover in a past life or some shit.
By the time I dropped it, he found out about her and wanted to meet the gods but I don't think any revelaiton was given other than the weasel emperor thinking he was a god.
I hated the loli goddess, her interference whenever it seemed like the MC would be convinced by a "bad" guy was fucking annoying.
Owen Diaz
Wouldn't surprise me. Is there time travelling and alternate realities as well? Seems every Isekai is going down that route now
Yeh he had a flashback about her next to the shrine gate ruins
Ryder Butler
>now
Michael Stewart
I don't think time travel is a thing (unless you count people from the same time being isekai'd centuries apart) but there are alternate realities, Arisa, Satou and Hayato are mentioned to come from completely different versions of Japan.
Nathan Collins
She never "accidently" killed a Dragon God, so no.
William Wright
When it aired I dropped it after 2 episodes. Couldn't stand MC's virgin voice.
Watched it all a few weeks ago. Shit but watchable.
Josiah Taylor
It really grew on me the second time I watched it
All those adorable slaves
