@SniperKnighter a second season was confirmed?
This anime was quite mild desu. His onmyouji powers in a medieval european setting is kinda fresh tho.

The score is 6/10
Ok to start off is this a generic isekai? It has elements of generic isekai in it and leans closer to a high power protag isekai but does thing different enough that I’d say it’s not generic; however it also isn’t mind blowing either.
The main character with his power in his previous world basically screwed himself so he reincarnates himself into another world to try again this time opting to use the hero as a shield but in typical isekai fashion he does a poor job at masking his true power and starts to repeat history ESSPECIALLY at the very last episode which I didn’t expect sense you only kinda saw him do stuff like it in parts of the show. The hero in question is a battle junkie and very early on even though he was a born into a family where he was a black sheep for not having the magic of the new world in any way, the black sheep thing is honestly dead almost the second he leaves to go to school so it doesn’t really matter even though they try and put focus on it. A few other plot point happens that revolve around the other 2 main characters which are interesting enough and you can tell they sort of try to make this isekai a bit more fleshed out but nothing to impressive and honestly I’m willing to see season 2 if it gets one so that should say something.
The way I watched this show was I blasted through episodes 1-9 then had to slowing progress to get to episode 12, at that point I had other things like Hogwarts Legacy, other games and shit IRl I was doing so I stopped watching anime for a bit then just now 5/31/23 got to finishing the last episode so it’s a bit hard to fully remember every detail which is why I like the binge model better. Anyhow, from what I do remember and it’s enough to write this the characters aren’t anything new, the art is decent enough, the plot especially towards the end actually made me want to continue the show into a new season and even though it’s a mouthful the title and story premise is kinda interesting to see. If the main character wasn’t so over powered and had to make compromises on where he acted I’d be more inclined to give it a higher rating but OP protag does make it lose points.
Best Quality: The hero and demon lord plot in this if you could believe it.
Worst Quality: The protagonist is so OP he has little to no obstacles besides his own actions that it makes it kinda boring.
Awards-
Dues Ex Bullshit: Just like with The Worlds Greatest Assassin isekai just making them the best before in their past life doesn’t make them being obscenely OP in the new world feel any less cheap. Yes, it’s more understandable but the OP protag has been done TO DEATH and this doesn’t help me care about the story.
Well Made Grilled Cheese: Overall you can call this show basic but it takes the demon lord and hero thing and tries to do something at least partly intriguing with it making you want to see what comes next which honestly for someone who has seen many fantasy and isekai shows at this point is impressive to me at least.
Bargin Bin Presentation: The name and main art piece of this show do it no favors. I get that it is pretty basic but not even trying to make it look more appealing or detailed just makes everyone dismiss it before even trying so someone imo fucked up there.
Overall I can recommend at least trying the series out and I’d like to see where season 2 could go after it’s ending episode and give it a 6/10.
