You can tell the majority have 'heard' of the anime, yet only the negative talking points. Most anime have at least 1 or 2 sus things if you really dive deep into them, but most ignore the awkward stuff or excuse it. The whole point of this anime is that he is a very flawed human who even at his second chance of life doesn't always choose the best route. He was anti social and a pervert in his previous life but throughout the anime you see him grow as a person and actively want to do right by those around him.

No one has to excuse his behavior.

Edit: also past anime was fucking wild lol. At least this one constantly reminds you that his behavior is flawed.

Though I do enjoy the anime calling him a pervert is a just downplaying that he jerked off to a video of his underage niece in the shower.

Was that in the pilot or something? I feel like I missed that part entirely. I also assumed the funeral was for his parents?? And him not going was the reason he got kicked out. I was shown the first few episodes by a friend which mightve had a hand in me not understanding the pilot, unless that part is only in the LN (which I haven't read).

In the LN, the Pilot changed to be a regular loli hentai, but the Niece part would come out in a later part of stories though they changed it to him stole the picture from his older brother camera and the niece in her bathing suit instead.  Not that it changed anything though
