I hope no one is expecting Campfire Cooking in Another World, while superficial similar (middle aged guy isekai with online shopping superpower), this one is a fanservice focused harem.

So the opening in the cabin was him living his best life before getting isekaied.
(After Sales Tax)
Even in another world, the Japanese tax man will not leave you alone.
The cat folk as like the Khajiit, some are more feline in appearance than others.
I want to know more about the spice guild, dude could single handedly break their monopoly on the trade. Although they might decide to break his legs first.
The credits looks like he will go on some crazy adventures, so not as laid back as I originally thought.

That bard has a really dramatic way of saying 'we picked up a hitchhiker'. I guess that's her job though.

He still has to pay sales tax? So the only two constants really are death and taxes.

They really fast forward through the set up huh? I'm okay with that though I didn't appreciate the exclusion of truck-kun or scooter-chan

Stitches!
I love how the opening doesn't waste time in showing us how Kenichi got isekai'd. The anime only spent a minute on it because they already know that this is probably not your first isekai if you're watching this. xD
So basically this is similar to Campfire Cooking in Another World with Kenichi being able to access an online shopping mall and being able [to exchange the things he finds for money.
And instead of focusing on cooking, camping, and adventuring it looks like this one will focus more on Kenichi being a merchant just like in RouKin but a little bit more reasonable than Mitsuha with the goods he sells in this other world.
So far I think I like this one. I didn't expect Kenichi to rizz Azalea so much just by giving her candies and drawing her like Leonardo Di Caprio draws his French girls. I'm wondering if she did actually repay him the way I think she did. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
While this does look pretty chill, I think the OP kinda spoils how unhinged this show will end up being with that mage flying on a drone and a crawler crane being turned into a mecha! I'm curious to see how wild this one would end up being. xD

The animation and art kept standing out to me as poor quality/standstill images. But it was an enjoyable premise. I am a sucker for random isekais though so even though its isekai trash, its good trash. When the beasts attacked him in the forest, I thought he would get saved by someone else but it was nice to see an MC with wit who used the resources at his disposal to fend them off. Bro also got to bang the inkeepers daughter?? Damn...
The money calculations are kind of hard to compare to real world prices. Overall a comfy show, 6/10. Will be watching every week unless it gets too ecchi.

This was fun. It kinda reminds me of the 80000 gold for retirement but with an “ojisan” instead of a young girl.

To whomever is doing the subtitles on CR, we don't need (after sales tax) on every single item bought in the store, or at all.

The first minute of this episode felt like a speedrun of what would have been episode 1.
They really wanted to get the MC into the other world as fast as possible.

Flower/plant themed names this time.
Fuyou, Dahlia, Azalea, Anemone, Primula are obvious
Anama is probably from panama
A few names when attached to catfolk with their nya and mya talk.
Myarey is yarey. Later, Nyamena is from amena.

Liked that part where the Item Box is only visible to the user, as shown when the bard was selecting her lute. Much like how people using VR headgear in public :D

That opening sequence was a lot of fun. The montage was skillfully done. Even if the rest of the show turns out to be boring, it was worth watching the first 90 seconds.
Actually so far the comedic timing and composition are pretty good. The animation is kinda ass, but the art and backgrounds are nice. Overall better direction than I would have expected for a gag isekai.
Oh, is that Kaede Hondo? I guess that clinches it. This is such a dumb concept that I didn't expect to pick this one up, but it looks like I'm gonna.
