One of the highlights of the season next to Villainess, and Boshi. These series broke all my expectations and became weekly must see shows. Sword reincarnation was dark and happy in a wholesome lovely way. I have picked up the manga and look forward to more anime. Fran is love Fran is life
I think I started watching this anime because of your first video on it as it kind off flew under my radar. But I am very happy I watched it. It's one of the most wholesome isekais I've ever watched. And both me and my friend were really into it!!
Watched this show only a few month ago and it was a blast! A little story how I found it: Orginally, I was on quest to appreciate and understand more of Ai Kakuma, who is an incredible seiyuu and deserves her own place in pantheon of Japanese Voice Actor goddesses. She is master of what she is doing, but at the same time I can *very rarely* recognize her voice. Like for example, Saori Hayami. If she speaks you know immediately it is her, because of her distinguishable voice. But with Ai Kakuma it is usually goes: "Yeah, I quite liked that character", and some time after you check VAs of characters and see that it was her *again* but you didn't noticed (at least that is how it usually with me), because her voice acting range is so good. And of course, Fran was blessed by her voice as well, and everyone who thinks otherwise is just objectively wrong and appellations are not allowed. I could stay here for long, lengthening this comment, but you already said the most essentials, so.. Let me pin point how fire 🔥 the OST was just again. I wish there were more anime with this genres and such quality of music. Check "Fighting black cat girl" track and it will tell you for itself. So yeah, nice summary, anime is cool, Fran must be protected, Shisho is cool, RUclips is ass (for recommending this vid to me only now), and I can't wait for season 2!
I really loved this series, and you're right - Fran is absolutely terrific. I love sword dad too. I haven't finished the series yet, but the first 11 are amazing. I love how Fran grows from a kit all the way to the young lady that fights the (spoiler) without help - she just knows how to fight, and because of who she is, she knows has to fight. Great stuff. I also really like that the story hasn't resorted to the cliche of creating fake friction between Fran and Sword dad to resolve it later, in order to generate story/content. I'm sure it's coming, it's hard for authors to resist such easy story. But as long as it doesn't, I'll enjoy it. This series is a brilliant isekai for exactly the reason you point out - Fran's not overpowered, Sword dad is. So it's really easy to keep introducing significant challenges without having to escalate the peril 1000% with every next foe. And Fran is just awesome.
I am super late to the party on this one, but I just finished this series earlier tonight. Wow. I absolutely loved it. The relationship between Teacher and Fran was so great. So many cool action scenes, so many funny Fran scenes, and scenes that definitely pulled at my heart strings… it was definitely worth the watch, and I hope we get a second season :)
It’s good to see an actual father daughter anime done right and the series handled tension well. I’m curious if levelling up will also make her grow older. The animation was very consistent too and seems like season 2 is all but confirmed. The series undeniably helped the novel’s sales and there’s more respect for the series now other than it having a niche for reincarnation into a somewhat inanimate object being a sword
Don't worry i have read the whole material available for the series and the relationship will always be father-daughter and Fran dosen't get older, she is currently 13. In anime she is 12
@@divaygoyal7018 I mean I’m curious if levelling affects her age. Seems like a year has passed which makes sense. And ya it’s very much parent relationship and not worried about that. I think a site thumbnail showed there could be another black cat boy in the story later
@@rajvirmalhans2073 Leveling doesn't affect her age or appearance. There are no black cat boys in the story later, at least up to volume 11 of the light novel.
@@SfO1450 Because of some circumstances, they factually are ;). But it's not like they can help it, these circumstances make black cats play in hardcore mode to a game everybody else play in normal to easy mode ;).
It was refreshing to see an Isekai Fantasy that did not revolve around a male power fantasy building a harem of Girls *Ahem* "People with the personalities of a plank of wood" It has its flaws like anything but it excels at making 2 main characters likeable and interesting. Fran is a female character with motivations and some level of independence, stunning!
If you were on the fence about the show, it picks up towards the end of the first episode and changes its tone once the 2nd one starts. If you liked Somali and the Forest Spirit or If It's my Daughter, I'll Defeat a Demon Lord then this show is worth watching
Ruby Rose? As in the Ruby Rose from John Wick 2? As for TenKen (reincarnated as a sword), the anime is a very close adaptation of the light novel. The novels are well written and edited even though the author is new. They are very much worth a read and are my favorite light novel series of 2022.
No es una buena adaptación de las novelas es una versión bastante cambiada del manga que ha su vez tuvo muchos cambios con respecto a la novela en la que fran es callada e inexpresiva y amanda no es una pervertida
You should probably look into the use of codependency. It doesn't mean what you think it means. You are trying to use it like a bond, or a relationship built on reliance. But codependency is a negative unhealthy relationship where neither party can take care of their well being and depend on the other person to provide for their happiness. We see this often in unhealthy marriages where both parties are too reliant on the other for day to day things and as a result, the relationship fails. Yes, I get that Fran is dependant on the sword, but it's not in an unhealthy way, she is seeking guidance and a father figure, the sword is trying to help Fran.
When I decided to put this on my to-watch list, I was expecting some funny hijinks, a couple chuckles here and there, and I was right. However, this show was so much more than that. It was funny, but it also had good action and storytelling, besides being pretty wholesome too - the "Mamanda" scene, for example, made me shed a tear. All in all, I enjoyed it thoroughly and can't wait for the not-yet-confirmed-but-pretty-much-confirmed 2nd season. [Edit: minutes after I wrote this comment, the 2nd season was confirmed. Lol]
This Anime got me to read the light novels. Man im glad i did. The source material is amazing! And the Anime may not show it. But Fran and Teacher are playing Elden Ring on hard mode and "let me solo her" is nowhere to be found!
I HATED this SERIES!!!! IT IS TRASH!!!!! What is with the writing the anime!!! HOW DARE THEY MAKE THE ISEKAI A SUPPORTING CHARACTER!!!!!! ((really I believe this... but..but ... FRAWN MUST BE PROTECTED!!!!!))))))))) Yeah this season was great and loved it!!!
First father-daughter focused isekai that does not take the romantic route. My third favourite LN after Mushoku abd Bookworm
Wholesome relationship stays wholesome

Sword reincarnation was dark and happy in a wholesome lovely way. I have picked up the manga and look forward to more anime.
Fran is love
Fran is life

I got into this anime because of the action, stayed for the slice of life. It was a confy isekai to follow weekly.

I hope there is a 2nd season since the manga is so cool.

Can we pair Fran with Mr. Goblin Slayer? ... They might have as much fun as a tornado hitting a trailer park.
Just glad they already announced a second season
Just want to say thanks for putting your channel content up on Rumble too!
Schwert was here...
Fran, the best Catgirl❤️
Love this anime! Violent Elemental magic, cute cat girl, dungeons and goblins... What more can you ask for.
A second season
been rewatching season 1 for weeks on repeat, got as far as season 2 on manga nd cant wait to read more
Ruby Rose? As in the Ruby Rose from John Wick 2?

I read the Manga and really grew to like it. It was weird but different and genuinely interesting. I'll watch the anime for sure.
so exited for the second season
And hoping for many more seasons after 😊
I told you that the show will get better, the LNs are a very good read and there's plenty of source material for a couple of seasons currently.
The best isekai anime in my opinion
Must protect fran
As someone who read the ligth Novel. I can say Fran and Teacher are not OP. There are People and Monsters in this world the can not be defeated!
This show was a very nice surprise for the season. Worth watching definitely.
This Anime got me to read the light novels. Man im glad i did. The source material is amazing! And the Anime may not show it. But Fran and Teacher are playing Elden Ring on hard mode and "let me solo her" is nowhere to be found!
Such a great story, worth watching! Simply put she just an extraordinary black cat!
fran my beloved
Fran must be protected?
Ha! the black lightning princess laughs. The girl need no protection, if anything, we need protection from her.
Even i would fall asleep if i had to recite the 100 rules of an adventurer 😁
Second season! 2nd! The fans want it now! It has been almost 2 years since the last episode aired. Time to get off your butts and do it!
Fran the slaughter cat, what's that little kitty kill ass!
Is this on HiDive in dub?

Due to Licensing, Hi-Dive is a week behind, and Andrew could not wait.... (Picks Up Spray Bottle)
Inb4 Usagi Drop ending.
I HATED this SERIES!!!! IT IS TRASH!!!!! What is with the writing the anime!!! HOW DARE THEY MAKE THE ISEKAI A SUPPORTING CHARACTER!!!!!! ((really I believe this... but..but ... FRAWN MUST BE PROTECTED!!!!!))))))))) Yeah this season was great and loved it!!!
shishou is such a dad
I guess the name Teacher was all a mistranslation?
