Light novel Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest) is getting a TV anime. Coming for Spring 2018
Studio will be White Fox.

Plot Summary

Quote:

Seventeen-year-old Hajime Nagumo is your average, everyday otaku. However, his simple life of pulling all-nighters and sleeping in school is suddenly turned upside down when he, along with the rest of his class, is summoned to a fantasy world! They're treated like heroes and tasked with the duty of saving the human race from utter extinction. But what should have been any otaku's wet dream quickly turns into Hajime's nightmare. While the rest of his class are blessed with godlike powers, Hajime's job, Synergist, only has a single transmutation skill. Ridiculed and bullied by his classmates for being weak, he soon finds himself in despair. Will he be able to survive in this dangerous world of monsters and demons with only a glorified blacksmith's level of strength?

disappointing start

it's extremely rushed and rearranged

cgi was lackluster also

bakato · 2019-07-08, 11:42

I expected nothing and I was still disappointed.

FlareKnight · 2019-07-08, 11:50

I think this is a case where it would have been better to go with the double episode opener. Go down to 12 episodes if you have to. That way you can actually show some more build up to Hajime falling and where he ends up by the end of this episode. They can fill in that period with flashbacks as they go along. Heck the opening showing Hajime and his class being transported hopefully means they will. But I think the double episode would just work a bit better.

For a single episode this probably wasn't the worst idea. Hardly the first time a show wanted to get to something big and dramatic in the first episode to try and get a hook into people. Not sure it would or would not have been better to start slow and end this episode closer to the fight that lead to Hajime falling down there. Would have been nice to have a bit more time to establish his classmates more.

A bit of a rough start. But hopefully they can steady things out with the next episode. Be nice if it was just a hurried start so they could get to stuff like Hajime getting his gun and killing the bear-thing. Ok show, you've established your lead character. Now let's smooth things out.

Was at reddit's discussion of Arifureta Ep 1.

In summary, they're furious with it. Especially with the lack of buildup and establishment for the MC and his classmates.

RDNexus · 2019-07-08, 12:04

I decided to join its Discord last week. Wrong decision

Those guys seemed to have unreasonable expectations and are now reacting as I expected...

bakato · 2019-07-08, 12:10

So much anger and indignation. This is just the tip of the iceberg, people. Wait until the original psycho albino makes his debut. Accelerator'll put this edgelord wannabe in his place.
