Anime titles have become longer and longer. The likes of My Next Life as a VILLAINESS: ALL ROUTES LEAD TO DOOM! to "Problem Children Are Coming from Another World, Aren't They?"
They would often give what the premise is and what to expect and sort of a draw and this has been in my recommendation list from Muse Asia on Youtube from watching Mushoku Tensei Jobless Reincarnation. So I have decided to take a peak.
It is one of those isekai series that some random person gets killed by any random way of dying and transported to a fantasy world and either meet a goddess and begins the 2nd life.
I find myself watching these kinds of anime as it seems I have some level of dissatisfaction with mine and often think of how it would be cool to be transported elsewhere. The closest thing that might resemble me if ever would be the anime Ascendance of a Bookworm.
So for this anime, a young woman working as an office worker dies from exhaustion and likens her life as a corporate slave. She meets a goddess who seems easygoing and will grant her the life she wants in this new world.
Having worked herself to death in her previous life she wants to be able to take things slow and just laze around and so she asks to be an immortal. Having a finite number of years in the world has driven man to always aspire to do more in order to achieve something and so being free from that feeling of always being in a hurry and that there is not enough time the main character is able to proceed with a slow and contented life.
Azusa becomes known as the Witch of the Plateau who is always taking it easy killing some slimes and gathering herbs for medicines and just generally just chilling.
She does this for 300 years and a visit to the Adventurers guild reveals that she has reached level 99 and is considered very strong.
This is the farthest from her mind as she only wants to live a quiet life and be laid back in her small cottage. So she asks the lady from the adventurers guild to keep it a secret.
Yet we know that her laid-back life will be a thing of the past as her reputation as one of the strongest witches starts to flow and people flock to her to test their strength and cause all sorts of scenarios.
She meets all sorts of creatures and adventurers and has wacky interactions with them.
With an ever-growing ensemble of characters the anime does not feel heavy or warrants the need to understand deep plots.
If you are looking for something quick and funny then this is something that you might want to check out.
Available in Youtube in Muse Asia who licenses it and so I would watch their ads for them to be able to monetize it and continue getting anime properly licensed and supporting the industry.
It is also in Crunchy Roll if you have an account.
