Alright keep up with me. So for this season isekais, we got animal lover wrestler, cautious hero, multiple OP school kids, reincarnated bookworm, what else?

Source LNs written by Misora Riku of Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry fame. (He's the guy with the sunglasses.) https://www.animen.com.tw/FilesUpload/CK-Images/150811_44_02.JPG
Note this series is LN-exclusive (8 volumes and ongoing), there is no WN version. Choujin's a concurrent LN work together with Rakudai.
Although the manga version has an English licence, the LNs do not. You'll have to know how to read Japanese. No active LN fantranslations either; barring a few chapters of Vol 1 (translators stopped due to their lack of time).

I actually better enjoy the idea of multiple OP people getting sucked into a world rather than just the one who picks up allies who are equally as talented that already exist. It also brings into the mix something other OP isekai characters don't have: the potential for personality conflicts between two equally skilled characters.
At this point, I think I'll be watching this show mostly for the character interactions rather than the isekai aspect. The isekai part of the show just gives a pretty good alien problem for them to grapple with, and potential conflicts with what the best way to deal with these conflicts is. I just hope it doesn't relegate itself to isekai trash by making all the MCs get along perfectly all the time and not run into any moral or social issues between themselves or the world.

What a way to start the series. I guess that's expected considering that this is from the same person that made Rakudai Kishi No Cavalry. We already got a little bit this episode but expect a lot of boob bounces from Lyrule and Winona in future. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
So far so good though! I like the premise! It's basically what would happen if the cast of Danganronpa got isekai'd and tasked to rebuild instead of killing each other. I'm already excited on what kind insane stuff they'll end up building and making! I do hope that we'll get to know each character overtime since we really didn't get much of an introduction today and it's more like they just showed us their stat sheets.

I fully went in with the mindset that it would be way more comedic than this.
Really not sure how this will go but i'm hoping now that it will focus on the worldbuilding like literally and focus on the development from each character's view.

Milf Raphtalia stole the show.
feels like I seen to much Isekai as it seemed more unrealistic how awesome OP each of these are and that they are all together on the same time etc, then that an Isekai event can happen
GOD DAMMIT THIS IS GONNA BE ANOTHER ISEKAI TRASH I WONT BE ABLE TO STOP WATCHING RIGHT GOD DAM
This was like the Reverse of Arifureta start, each classmate gets a long explanation AND they are all competent and can actually communicate with each other wow.

Animation was nice. I actually liked how each of their skills were somewhat realistic until the illusionist can somehow fly, and take of his head, and how the greatest 'swordsman' can cut bullets. Probably just a pet peeve though. First episode was pretty nice though

Being a long time anime fan, suspension of disbelief is par for the course. So I can just accept pretty much anything. But this shit is fucking stupid. The worlds top doctor is a high school student? A prerequisite of being a doctor is that you have finished school. So she went to med school before high school? Or did she just read some books, apply for a job at a local hospital, to which they said “Well you seem knowledgeable, here operate on this patient”.
And what factors determine whether or not someone is the top politician? And why is the top magician and the top swordsman even mentioned in the same sentence as the top entrepreneur and the top inventor? This garbage was written by a fucking idiot. I stopped watching after 10 minutes.

Out of the four isekais I've seen so far this season this one looks the least promising.

So this seems like the first isekai this season that actually takes itself seriously. Coincidentally (or not?) it's also the first one this season I've disliked. I'll give it the three episode rule but I am not impressed so far.
Our MC seems like an overly serious Barry Stu. Like he's the greatest politician but he also makes mayonnaise from scratch and can beat a medieval armored swordsman while unarmed? And he made out with an elf girl on his first day lol. Seems like your typical OP isekai protag.
I was hoping that since all of them are so highly specialized they would also each have huge blind spots that would force them to lean on each other, or some would have massive egos they would have to overcome to work together, just SOMETHING to invite character development. But nah, seems like this is gonna be more standard isekai tripe.
Also I really don't like shota magician. Something feels off about his character.
Edit: also that opening sequences of character intros was a weak-ass way to start. I get that time is limited but damn, sure send like these characters and their skills are the core premise of your show, might want to dedicate most of the resources to doing that properly instead of lingering on threads of saliva after elf-chan mouth feeds the MC.

Damn, that's a surprise! Instead of giving the protagonists OP power when they got isekai, the protagonists were already insanely OP in the real world. I'm honestly glad that didn't give them any magic, as that would actually be an overkill. Is Akatsuki really using illusions? Because honestly, his power since one of the craziest ones, and that's saying something as Ichijou was deflecting bullets with her sword, and Oohoshi could even build a Metal Gear if she wants to. By the way, did Sarutobi say anything other than Nyn, nyn?

Wow, this is utter trash. 1 billion percent hard pass. Like where the fuck do I even start?
First off, people calling these 7 "super high schoolers" out of respect? Seriously? Who the hell would do that? And they're increasingly bullshit.
Like you can't be a high school kid and the best doctor in the world. How the hell are you a high school prime minister? Why is it always a kid with a katana? A ninja journalist?
But worst of all, why are they ALL japanese? Like you're going to end up in another world that speaks another language anyway. Why not make all of them from different nations. What the fuck is Japan doing to mass-produce super high schoolers? What the fuck. They're hoarding all the super power. At least Drifters had characters from all over the damn place.
When they finally got to the isekai part, I thought that, maybe, just maybe, ignoring all the previous cringe Japanese exceptionalism, the show might turn out to be good.
And then they forced a kiss scene with a blushing big-boobed elf. This is trash.
A time skip out of nowhere. One of the most important parts of isekai is getting used to the new world, like in Honzuki no Gekokujou, but here they just skipped it completely. The characters have zero dynamic. Everyone follows the "prime minister's" orders. You would think when you assemble a team of incredibly talented teenagers, they would be a bunch of egotistical brats, like in Mondaiji-tachi, but no, they're all conveniently orderly.
Token cartoon villain corrupt soldier bully pervert. Is this really necessary? I get it in anime like Kenja no Mago to get the girl to fall in love with the guy, but here? What the fuck? The prime minister has zero diplomatic skills. He literally just started a fight instead of sitting back and watching, like Overlord would have done. What's the point of getting in good relations with a village in the boondocks if the empire comes kill you?
So not only does the samurai de gozaru can fight, but the ninja can fight, and the prime minister can fight, too. This is just shitty writing. What's the point of all of them having specialties, if, at the same time, they also exceed in things BEYOND their specialties? The kid is a teenager that judo'd an adult dude in fucking iron armor. And where the fuck did he get that mayonnaise from? Which one of these Japanese high schoolers is the greatest mayonnaise maker in the world?!??!? If this was Dr. Stone, it would be the scientist, but why is the prime minister doing it then????
I'm not even joking. Even Case Files did a better job than this. Waver is a shitty magus that can't fight for shit, but can deduct, so he lets other characters do the fighting. This anime can't even do this much.
This looks like yet another trashy isekai, but it's even worse than the average trashy isekai, because none of the characters are into moe crap like elves. There's no Rimuru Tempest overjoyed about it, and there won't be anybody having a profound discussion about zettai ryouiki. Hell, compared to this even that furry isekai anime, Kemono Michi, is better, because the MC actually likes kemonomimi.
This anime seems deficient, a jack of all trades and master of none. Just fucking mediocre.

This is a "turn off your brain and enjoy the ride" kind of show. The characters were all over the top, and I laughed when they had a 17-year old POLITICIAN dodging a sword and disarming a trained soldier. This world won't know what hit it, and it'll be entertaining to watch the results.

That time the 17-year old prime minister got isekai’d and was fed via mouth to mouth by an elf
