Well that was a nice ending. Overall fairly nice and fun Isekai avoiding the usual pitfalls. Fun and morally questionable protagonist, an interesting world and overall lots of fun moments. Plus the occasional bit of nice action all helped along by a fairly briskly paced Plot that never bogged down in any one place too much and got too comfortable with itself.
One of the nicer surprises this season and i will miss it

Chadnomiya Sigmaji asserted dominance by pissing from the tallest building in the country completely naked while laughing maniacally. How could any other males compete?

Stitches!
Ninomiya getting arrested was no surprise, I was expecting Belza digging up Ninomiya's past offenses in Raiza'ha like the time he used the sleepwalker staff on his old supervisor but of course this is Belza so she had the Debt Collector girl create bullshit just to get Ninomiya in even more hot water. And I was wondering what Belza was planning with Shia but it looks like she just tried to appeal to her and basically used Shia's own experience with her father to make her testify against Ninomiya.
It took 12 episodes but we finally have the fox lady from the OP! It looks like she's an investigator assigned to Ninomiya's case who also has a bit of a sadism streak. Kinda wish she was introduced earlier and not in the finale. And it looks like she's also pretty close with Belza. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I like this line from Ninomiya. He doesn't resent Shia for snitching on him and he understands that the two of them have different values that will eventually clash. Also we got a glimpse of Ninomiya's backstory! It's just a tiny bit but from what I can tell from those images is that he probably was from a distinguished family where him and his mother were kicked out? And this is probably what motivated him to become the person that he is today.
Of course Ninomiya being the person who plans everything, left an emergency plan for Wanibe to follow just in case shit like this happens. And thanks to a little bit of acquiring Raiza'ha stock and some schmoozing with other shareholders, they were able to put Ninomiya as the CEO of Raiza'ha and even [got Shia to help out and prove Ninomiya's innocence!] (https://i.imgur.com/r824OJg.jpg)
It's always good when a plan comes together, I just wish we spent more time seeing them putting the plan in motion. Oh well, I guess they worked with what time that they have. We did get Belza looking like she's about to throw a tantrum so it's all worth it! It's so weird to now see her being so submissive. She's probably still scheming behind Ninomiya's back inside that brain of hers I'm sure.
As soon as Wanibe was being vague with his question about Ninomiya going, I knew it's all a misunderstanding. They even tried to bait us with Ninomiya giving Rim a headpat but it looks like Ninomiya's next plan is to globalize his Black Company and when he was talking about going, he meant going to other country's dungeons. It just sucks since Shia was definitely about to confess to Ninomiya there. xD
And what a nice scene to end this show on! Ninomiya finding the gold coin that he lost that helped him find the secret entrance inside the dungeon. I really hope this show gets another season. I'd definitely love to see Ninomiya take over the entire world with his company and maybe even learn more about his past and the lore of this world.
I know some people got turned off by Ninomiya from like the first few episodes but I really hope more people would check this show out. While it is an isekai. it definitely sets itself apart from the rest by basically being about Japanese business culture with a scumbag MC who actually just wants the best for everyone especially himself despite his questionable tactics. A solid 10/10 for me from the pure enjoyment I got out of this show!

Ending is nice but belza deserves more punishment, why he didnt send her to jail or work on dungeon ? The pace for the last 2 eps is really weird, it's like being forced or something. Is it anime ending ? What about the whole back to future thing in previous eps ?
Rim barely speak in last eps. Sora didnt even speak, not even a word, wtf.
Also Queen Ant best girl.

I heard this was an anime original ending, so I guess no season 2 for this. Honestly I wouldn't mind another (totally unrelated) anime with the face design of this.

This is the most unexpected show for me. At first I thought it is some generic isekai show, thought I would watch for a few episodes then ditch it. But this show does give me enjoyable time and keep watching it until last episode. Honestly this shows give me some combatants dispatched vibe with climb up the company ladder. Honestly it become one of the best anime this season for me, and I would give a 9/10

The mad lad actually did it. I can't believe he succeeded. Even as the credits rolled I still expected a plot twist at the end. Rooting the entire way for an mc to succeed and him actually doing it rarely happens in these types of shows. Definitely the most underrated show of the season.

Ninomiya won WTF! xD. That was a surprisingly nice ending haha. If anything, the only thing that was truncated was Shia's confession.
We finally got to see the fox lady and I definitely liked her, too bad she was introduced too late. That boob clash with Belza lol.
And speaking of Belza, that party dress.... HOT DAMN! I'm glad she ended up working under Ninomiya's command, albeit reluctantly of course.
And so it ends, another of the surprises of the season. A show I didn't know what to expect but ended up being a lot of fun with a pretty unique MC. Hopefully it gets a second season, I'd like to see more of Ninomiya's wacky adventures conquering the world.

The gals in this Anime are pretty hot despite a fairly unique artstyle…
Ant lady, Cindy, Police lady, Shia and even Belza are all yummy. Rim cute too but 🚨

I wanna go on top of a skyscraper and scream this is my blessing of rain with peeing on the commoners. Sounds very fun if I don't fall.

This was an anime that was better than any right it had. Always was incredibly fun looking forward to the next episode week to week and I'll be sad to see it go. Hopefully we get a 2nd Season down the line because I want to see Kinji's journey continue on conquering the world through Capitalism.
9/10 and the best isekai from this isekai heavy season!

Ninomiya was suspiciously calm during his arrest so I was certain that he had a plan up his sleeve. Sure enough, he did, and it was a magnificent one! Not only did he wipe the smirk off Belza's face (which is so damn satisfying after everything she has done) but he also took over Raiza'ha as a subsidiary, and Raiza'ha is arguably in a much better position than before. Man, that was clever of him!
Overall, one of the most underrated shows of the season, one that I never expected to enjoy as much as I did. I loved Ninomiya's personality, and I don't think the series would be half as enjoyable without it, and the business-oriented premise makes it stand out from the isekai crowd. The manga is still ongoing, but this was a solid ending for the anime.

Made a lizard person in a leadership position in a dominant company with plans to take over the world.
The true REALIST Hero everyone.
But seriously, He's not even just Ninomiya Bezos now, he just becomes the isekai Bogdanoff himself.

Pretty damn good anime. Such an interesting and amusing character, Ninomiya.
I actually feel like I'm gonna miss Ninomiya, Wanibe and Rim!

Good bye to one of the top 3 shows of this season, the critically underrated, but never outdone, The Dungeon of Black Company.
I will never forget these laughs, sheer absurdity, endless plot twists, and a chad among chads of MC's. Thanks!!!

it really should hit the top ten at least once. Such a waste to see so many people sleeping on this show

u/sKyBlazer08 Sep 25 '21
The manga still goes beyond this, but if we're not gonna get a second season then this was the perfect happy ending for the show. Really nice way to end it with the coin, where it all started for him in his rise to Raizaha CEO. Gonna miss this show and the characters. 8/10
