* Based on an adventure fantasy web novel by Usonan.
Shadow Realms have ravaged the earth and decimated almost everyone in their way. The survival of humanity hinges upon the success of just six mages, including analytic fighter Desir Herrman. The remaining heroes make one final stand to end the bloodshed...but to no avail. Desir closes his eyes on what should be the end of his life—only to open them and see the beginning of his school days?! Desir has returned thirteen years back to the past, where he's been given another chance. A chance to see the loved ones he lost, a chance to meet his fellow warriors again, and a chance to save the world...!

Note: The first two episodes received an early screening at a special event on September 30, 2023 at Shinjuku Wald 9 in Tokyo. The regular TV broadcast started on October 8, 2023.

It was very good but towards the ending of the source manhwa it became a typical power fantasy. I swear every Korean show I watched is prone to it. Still worth a look at.

Fans of the source martial might find this to be a rather enjoyable watch. Still, as a fan of the original work myself, I did not enjoy this adaptation. I find it lacking in both production and pacing. I cannot honestly recommend spending the time.

This one is a rarity: it follows the manhwa far more closely than I expected. The manhwa is Korean, but is quite good. I hope they'll adapt more of it.

I really quite enjoyed this series and although the premise has been done before the animation a little weak (might be due to funding) the pacing, story arc and sound design took me in, making me binge one episode after another. Every episode had a purpose to grand scheme of things which made (me as viewer) feel my time was valuable with very little (to no) filler episodes.
A very well executed story, kudos to the those who were behind it, can tell that this is a labor of love. Of all the series of this season I agree with others in saying that this series, in my estimation, is a hidden gem.

The premise of humanity's last stand gone wrong only for the MC to be reincarnated to be given another chance has been done before. Initially this started out ok with training, but the characters, pacing and tone were average. Also, the last 2 episodes felt out of place and random. The way this ended sets up for another season, but overall this season is your run-of-the-mill action/adventure series.

It was interesting, but not strong. There is plenty which they could have done better, but simply didn't. I get that the MC has omnipotent knowledge of what "happened" but it is seriously underutilized.
This could have been much better than it was, but the lack of mettle to utilize what was presented is what was the downfall of this series.
All that said, it wasn't terrible, it wasn't great, it just WAS.
Basically, it'll fill some time, and I'm a little confused why they're going after a season 2 with such a mediocre season 1.

An underrated anime, perhaps one of the best of the season.

To put it simple this is a "magic school" series with a twist. If you like that trope and don't mind low budget productions, then it's decent enough of a watch.

It's good. No OP bull, strong storyline and not too much drama which is correctly alleviated by funny inserts and dialogues. The only thing that makes MC OP is his knowledge from before, nothing else, and even that does not make him omnipotent or invulnerable. Looking forward to continuation of the story.
