“The Good: It’s well-written and well-acted. The sound design is quite high. The narrator is quite good and and does a good job, even with the fight scenes.
The Bad: While the writing is good, the story is crap. The focus is on the characters to the detriment of the plot. the B-plot of the 1st Book is cringe-worthy (palace drama, verbal/emotional abuse, repression, and rape). But the main problem is in the A-plot: There are too many characters! In an isekai, the normal-worlders come to the strange land and find that they’re able to meaningfully interact with that world. 50 episodes in and that has yet to happen! The three normal, audience-analogs are just along for the ride as the Adventurers (fighter, ranger, cleric, and rogue) have their Campaign.
Verdict: While it does have good moments, I can’t recommend this to most people. If, however, you are a fan of Game of Thrones and the works of Marion Zimmer Bradley, you might like this series. I look forward to other series by this same group—and hope they have different writers.”

“Intricately written storyline, really awesome voice acting. Stick with it through the first couple of episodes, the pace revs significantly.”
