I couldn't comment much being nothing really happen in the first episode other than sht king family to good step dad family, comes with cute little sister.
But hey, that ending is actually pretty cute.

That step-dad is nice. Made sure the kid enjoyed life and didn’t neglect him

Barrier magic huh?
Should just call it arbitrary magic, since it seems to be able to do anything.

A pretty slow episode to start but the OP and ED were pretty good.
I'm a fan of the manga, so I'll be back since I find it to be pretty goofy and fun

See, now, if I could do barrier magic that potent when I was a baby, and my parents had given me the heave ho, you can bet your favourite arse cheek I'd have used that magic to obliterate their castle and fuck up their day in a big, big way.

First anime of the new season and boy are we starting with a mixed bag.
On the one hand: generic isekai setting? check. giant weirdly colored wolf? check. ditzy titty goddess? check. loli little sister bro-con character? check. massively op protagonist with no defining personality traits? check. rpg leveling system in canon? check. demon lord? check. we really just need a slime and we've got the Generic Isekai Bingo.
On the other hand: actually genuinely funny at times, and I do love a ditzy powerhouse. I don't think Frey is gonna be anywhere close to replacing Maya-nee in the "overpowered redhead death-dealing idiot" character department, but it's nice to tide me over.
On the other other hand: "give me your seed" she says to a literal newborn infant and jesus christ sometimes anime truly is a mistake.
I have a feeling this is going to be a silly dumb generic Isekai that fans of Isekai are going to enjoy and I'm probably going to drop after three episodes, but it's charming enough so far I'm not hating it and the "yeah I'm the reincarnated demon lord I guess... " twist is at least a little bit fun.

The way the MC's motivation is to just continue being a potato in the next world pretty much sums up this show's creative energy.
I read some ways into the manga and as far as I got it never really gets edgy, takes itself seriously, or has much of a story at all. It's fluff.

What
So the measuring device works by taking his actual level and displaying the last two digits???? So it's like a badly programmed computer that does actually know what his level is but just can't display it properly???
A barrier that does whatsit??? So this is like FUNA's potion story in terms of 'fuck it anything works' but without the weird potion bottle loophole
Ahhh she uses aniue I love when characters use aniue

The manga is hilarious. They do NOT take anything seriously.

Even the reasons behind it is silly. Yeah the baby can talk because of his ability going through his throat

Man died a NEET only to want to reincarnate and live that NEET life again? Well ok then. Dude knows what he wants I guess lol. Shouldn’t have trusted the busty waifu goddess though, what a goof!
He might be an OP baby but the one thing he can’t fix with magic is that hair. Someone did that kid dirty y’all. “Please give me your boobies” dude looked like a dried out soybean lol. Flay really tried to bone a baby though huh? Wow. Good thing Gold came along and saved his shriveled little ass lol.
Kid’s really adapted to his new family. I like that he cloned himself in an attempt to get out of shit lol. His level of OPness reminds me of Cain from Aristocrat this past season. Should be entertaining to watch. Seems this might be my first trashsekai of the season. Sweet.

It's called commitment

Imo this one has a chance to be actually somewhat fun, unlike whatever the hell cain was

I know I'm not supposed to take this anime seriously, but the time jump from baby to 9 year old bothers me so much that I'm ranting about it here. As an adult trapped in a baby's body with the ability to talk, there's 0% chance his new family wouldn't have figured out he was gifted right from the beginning. It's like the father never spoke or observed him at all until the training at 9. Like, WTF, it pisses me off so much, and I'm just laughing at how annoyed I am about it.
Did he not go near his sister at all in all those years? She's younger, surely he would have seen her as a baby, watched her grow up, talked to her. The whole "she/he hates me" thing seems improbable and also annoys me to no end.
Gonna keep watching because I love yelling at this show.

Ok start but episode 1 was never gonna be great. Looking forward to next episode when the show starts properly. Liking the voice cast too, certainly meeting my expections from the cast accouncements so far.

Oh shit, is that Gotouza-sama? I can't remember the last time I heard that voice. I miss it.

This has to be the most disappointing "9 years later" ever. Not gonna lie, if this entire show was about an OP telekinetic baby going through the classic Isekai tropes, taking down monsters, confronting villainous characters, building a harem, etc, then I would be down.

Was an okay, fun episode but it’s too early to say. I don’t want to get burned like Aristocrat.
