The Streets Told Me To Watch This Isekai (Tsukimichi)

[@bryanmerel]

Fun Fact, Tsukimichi Moonlit Fantasy is one of the Progenitors of the Isekai Genre. It is as old, if not older, than/as Mushoku Tensei.

[@anaiglesias9972]

The WN started in 2012 , so it's older than slime

[@jamestamez7475]

I love the webnovel and can't wait to see the next part of the story animated. Similar to Slime in that the world gets much bigger as the story goes on and, at least in the webnovel, the world building is done quite well. But what I really like is *no spoilers* Makoto is overpowered, but has a big weakness in the lack of healing himself and a seeming partial resistance to healing magic. So there is always the possibility of injury or death for him and his followers. The story grows in intensity at a good pace without forgetting its slice of life roots. If you have the time I would recommend the webnovel and the sidestories. Be aware it is still ongoing.

[@79visual]

You do know that Isekai is a whole lot older than that right? I mean I remember a fun little isekai know as El Hazard which I watched in 1995. You also have other classics like Fushigi Yugi, Vision of Escaflowne and Magic Knights of Rayearth. They all came out in the mid-90's which make them far older. There are older stories but those were some of the first I ran across.

[@bryanmerel]

@@79visual i was talking Light Novel/Web Novel Wise. If we want even much much older Isekai, look no further than Blue Blink, Vacation with the Dinosaurs, and Mashin Hero Wataru.

[@elisac6146]

What about Magical Rayearth :o?

[@retrogecko2859]

4:25 Another reason he's so OP is because he can increase his mana pool, (which is normally set at birth and can't be changed) through his meditation while practicing his archery. The manga is also really good, but only releases a chapter per month.

[@kith6118]

He is also OP is because he needs to train his body serveral time more than an average human to have a normal, healthy body.

[@AccipiterVP]

An english release of the light novel would be better than the manga. (a german release or french release would be for me good, too, ok for me personally are the languages ranked german>english>french)

[@Elixtrix]

I think the reason he gets more and more mana is cus he can rebirth like that time the two girls (I forgot theirnames) thought he died for a minute bit he was just spaced out on archery when he came back he had more mana

[@aidenarzamendi3098]

I thought it was because he focused so hard he died and reborn at the same time, each time building more mana.

[@kith6118]

@@aidenarzamendi3098 It is, but his initial stats already surpass the other heroes because he did alot of training in the original world.

[@LeoSiegfried]

Tsukimichi was one of the old Isekai Novels released on Shōsetsuka ni Narō, Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy (2012-2016) was actually published Before Slime Tensei (2013-2016) and same Time as Mushoku Tensei and Shield Hero sadly it often gets shadowed by them but its an enjoyable read the novels are really good glad its getting second Season

[@xXOneHeartOneLoveXx]

This series is deffinatly up there for me. I think it's done a good job of laying out plot points and world mechanics for a first season of a show. And being a first season I'm glad they didn't plow through any of these as it would have made it feel poorly paced. The thing I find really interesting is his ever increasing power which Tomoe at the end of the season commented its getting close to that of the goddess and she won't be happy about that. Buzzing for a season 2. Deffinatly an underrated Isekai

[@slyprin8108]

Yeah, it feels like it's leading into a war of God's type of scenario. I'm honestly completely for it.

[@aSSGoblin1488]

the manga is much much better in quali8ty, its one of the few that i read religously

[@dwarfwarriorgames9497]

He’s very spot on with how it has a lot of potential and that is my only gripe with the anime. I read the manga a few months before the anime announcement so I was excited to see how they would adapt it, which they kept most of the main points in which is great, but the minor details that would give more explanation as to why these things are happening are what was cut out, making it feel a bit incomplete. The manga covers why he has these tendency’s and goes into more detailed explanation making it feel way better and gives you the satisfying answer you want

[@chickenTDP]

Season two being confirmed made me super happy because I knew this series was different from other Isekai.

[@AmGriffo]

Id be hard pressed to call reacting violently to the attempted murder of his townsfolk "sociopathic tendencies". Vengeance is human nature.

[@davidford3115]

Indeed. When a character is maddened into misanthropy, it can appear as sociopathic to the outside observer. But to the people who know the full story, it is entirely understandable WHY the person behaves in such a manner.

[@tukos7370]

It's so far one of the best isekai for me. It might even be my favorite. He's OP, but it's for a purpose. Literally taking on a God and the people of the world who have her blessing. The anime seemingly starts out silly like Konasuba, and then it kicks in a darker tone. The MC even demonstrates some serious competence as a leader and "player" in the world. On top of it, his otherworldly status serves a purpose for the story. I also admire that he uses archery over swords, and combines the archery with his magic. The archery scenes are tremendous. I love this anime. I hope for a season 2.

[@OPM6906]

Having read the LN, there are several references (way farther into the story) to a dark side within Makoto, so maybe the anime was foreshadowing it. Having said that, this series is up there with Slime and Overlord for me in terms of Isekai and absolutely love the dynamics between Makoto and his underlings 😂

[@kallistikaleid]

Yeeeaaaah!!! I adore Tsukimichi!!! Loved the anime, so, I read all of the written stuff. Damn fun story. Tsukimichi and Spirit Chronicles were destined to release in the same season. Both were instant favorites of mine, and both were incredibly worth reading afterwards. I mean, both managed to fight for a season 2 immediately!

[@kallistikaleid]

4:25 Yes! One of my favorite differences in this anime was the "why" Makoto is hella OP. It is such a fun reason for him to plow through the difficulties he comes across, helped by the powers he was blessed with by Best Homie God. 7:28 Good point. There really was so much hinted at, but not given focus in the one season. Once you read the story enough, much gets elaborated on and becomes thought provoking. Raidou(Makoto, as he is mostly referred to in the book form) does display some unique tendencies and motives. The conflict between him and Hibiki really shows that this is a different sort of protag. 9:00 To this day, when I hear Gambling by sydou(who did one of the best EDs for CSM, btw), the hype explodes from my brain!

[@deathpyre42]

I love that most of Mikoto's problems can't be solved with brute force, and that things go wrong in creative and varied ways.

[@davidford3115]

And that is what can make an OP character still have a good adventure. That using wits and problem solving to get through a situation can show character growth to a person whose typical response to a solution is to smash it.

[@deathpyre42]

@@davidford3115 Tsukimichi kinda ends up playing his power for comedy instead of serious growth more often than not. Which I do rather like. For example (spoiler alert) The spell he cast to take out Sophia & Lancer gets mistaken for the Goddess' divine judgement, meaning that even Mikoto doesn't know that he created a sacred lake by accident, leading to a hilarious moment where Shiki connects the dots and is totally horrified while Mikoto is chilling out as normal.

[@deathbeforedishonor6523]

Great review. This is one of my top favorites of Isekai. You are very spot on with the fact it has an whole lot of potential but we just have not got enough of it yet to see where it is going to land. I am anxiously awaiting 2nd season and hope they expand more on all the different things going on and really break that mold altogether and come out with something that is different and a cut above. It already feels a good bit different then the "average" Isekai, so at least for me it is already a win for something quick and very fun to watch.

[@dieupoulet4247]

If you didn't already watch it, I highly recommend Kumo desu ga, nani ka? (So I'm a spider, so what?). As of now, it's one of my favorite isekai, and I watched a whole lot of them. The story is weridly told, shifting from two different era, and that's original and a good way to tell their story, in my opinion

[@undeath6010]

i think his mental state is fine. that situation was just pretty much fueld by anger and pain. he trustet humans. sadly he trustet the wrong kind of human. the moment he stabbt her was just amazing. by doing what she did, she forfeit her right to be alive.

[@ongsoon1336]

Totally agree

[@tukos7370]

This. He's not sociopathic. A human betrayed his trust and committed a terroristic act that killed his family members. That's way different than an unhinged person who kills out of sexual gratification or morbid curiosity.

[@OPM6906]

Having read the LN, there are several references (way farther into the story) to a dark side within Makoto, so maybe the anime was foreshadowing it.

[@davidford3115]

Yeah, apparently folks have never heard of "maddened into misanthropy." To an outside observer who doesn't have all of the details, it looks like sociopathy. But to those who do know, they completely understand the apparently anti-social behavior.

[@theonewayroad3867]

​@@tukos7370 Makoto's is never referring as a sociopath just that he has sociopathic tendencies ( there is a difference ) and considering the light novel fleshes out his thoughts more and we get some flash to his time growing up.... yes he does have sociopathic tendencies.

[@mdhamim7552]

This anime is Truly good. And as a novel reader I can tell its gonna become much much more better and hype. Tho it's even then also won't even nearly come to tensura level (cuz tensura future arcs are transcendental) but still it can get recognition of being a top tier Isekai .

[@m4dm3th0d]

I found the show surprisingly fun. Also, it introduced me to Syudou's music which I am still loving now

[@EndgameThor16]

The only problem i have with it is that they didn't show the parallel storyline, and a few other details from the source

[@rranft]

This show was pretty funny, yeah. Nice setup at the end for a second season, too. Here's hoping, because I agree that there just weren't enough episodes to really build up to a whole "beginning".

[@ericpeterson8732]

I really liked this anime. Yes, it has some elements of Slime Isekai, but also Konasuba. It's a subversion of the Isekai trope. The idea that the goddess who summoned you then rejects you because she doesn't like your face. (She even implied that he wasn't his parents' child with that ugly duckling line) She allows him to know every language but the human one, to further alienate him from her precious humans. I do find it weird that everyone wants to form a contract with him. The inversion of the races is the best element of the story. I could do without the constant desire to "service" him. He's still a kid himself. But to be fair, he could have said something to draw the lines instead of just ignoring it. Being embarrassed to just say he's not attracted to them that way is just a writer's trick to keep the tension going. And it's dumb.

[@Batmans_Pet_Goldfish]

One thing i always want in isekai, is going back every now and then to people in the first world and seeing how they react to the disappearance of the character(s). I *especially* want that in this show, because of his friend who seemed to care about him. Is she panicking because he's gone? Did she go to his family to find out what happened? Is she trying to find a way to bring him back? Does she even care about him anymore? Equally as interesting would be to see his parents and sisters. Is the whole family as vain as the goddess? Are just the sisters concerned and the parents not? Did the parents tell his sisters about the other world before he left, and he was the only one who didnt know? If not, did they tell them now? What was his relationship with his family? Are the parents trying to get him back? Or if not the parents, are his sisters trying to find a way to bring him home? Isekai rarely, (though not never,) touch on this aspect and it's such a tremendous missed opportunity for good character writing. The vast majority of people have someone who cares about them, and would miss them if they're gone, and i really want to see writers tackle that more. Funnily enough, one of the few that I can think of is SAO, and that's only really because they actually go back. My point being they mostly discuss it after the fact, rather than while it's happening. The advantage of doing it while it's happening is mostly for character development. If the character goes back, it makes the payoff of seeing everyone again that much better, because you'll have spent time developing all of the characters involved in that reunion. In the situation where the character returns and they don't meet anyone they knew, whether it's because they moved on or are dead/gone, having the character find out what happened is still a valuable experience. Hell, even if the character doesn't return, it can still be really interesting to find out what happened to everyone else. The character would effectively be dead in their old world, (even if they end up returning later,) and it would be extremely interesting to see how the characters cope with that. Sorry for the rant, i just wanted to share my thoughts.

[@Chaunwilkerson]

The Twelve Kingdoms is an isekai that does this pretty well, I'd absolutely recommend it.

[@ShaingTV]

Yeah, Gotta admit, Tsukimichi is most definetly in the upper echolone for me, at the very least in terms of isekai, but then again, i also did devour the manga multiple times. That being said, i feel like the anime is not as good as it could have been which is why i prefer the tsukimichi manga over slime for example, but for the anime its flipped but even then, its just an anime worth watching. Also, i am now plenty excited, hearing that there is gonna be an season 2 cause i really didn't know that yet!

[@ongsoon1336]

Well let me share some important fact about the anime: 1. The anime animation is truly amzing in return we get a super terrible storyline as the anime have cut about 97% of the important info especially the last episode they directly skip about 20~30 chpter to the season 1 ending. 2. The MC is super normal until he was place in a super discrimination place/situations. 3. The MC is a hard worker and not a OP character. The anime directly skip fact about MC. Here is the fact, he is someone who is 10x weaker than normal human from the earth, as this was suppose to be clarify before the last episode of anime. He is someone who need to work 10x than normal human as he born weak(well at least in term of physical) when he child his teacher told him that he can never be strong and he can become is being normal (that is the max limit of him according to his teacher) but he is someone who doesn't give up so he work hard to become normal.

[@davidford3115]

I agree with you on point # 2. Makoto was effectively maddened into misanthropy because of his treatment, which is a common and entirely predictable result. Treat a person like dog-squat, don't be surprised if he becomes the monster you accused him of being ("self-fulfilling prophesy" and "then let me be evil").

[@frdyfzbrvids1896]

Until I listened to your video... now I have hope. The story is very good in the next following chapters. I just settled for the WN version and now it just got better.

[@Marrok48]

I agree they could do so much more for it, but I take season one as him getting to the starting line. Yes he has a city with non humans, with op powers, and op gear, but I think the things that will delve into him will be played out with the events of the greater world, like the explanation for the war, the other summons, his parents and so on. I have not read the original material but this is what I would have done if constructing this story. Season one gave us the questions for the future and I think season two will begin to answer some of this. Hell, this only got 12 episodes and slime had had over fifty-two to explain things, or twenty-four if you just want to only count the first season.

[@colinsmith1495]

This was a fun one back when it came out. I hope they do more of it. There's definitely more going on with the MC that hasn't been revealed yet.

[@Maxcraft-1000]

Makoto is similar to rimuru because when his friends get killed he gets ruthless

[@davidford3115]

[@mrkvn223]

Makoto is more on the neutral side in the hyuman-demon war.

[@xrosslegends1279]

Wow, didn't know season two was in the making, definitely gonna be waiting for it.

[@mikerotch2066]

I mostly agree with everything you have said. The sprinkled good bits, the opening, the way the world and plot is explain, and even how he became OP which is the best thing about this show for me. There were shows where a character that is either strong already in the old world (Lugh from Worlds finest assassin), someone thats already Op (Anos from misfit of demon academy), and now more shows about characters that have already been sent to another world. But I either forgot or have never watched an isekai where the protags parents are from another world (Maybe the sequel to inuyasha?) The only thing I disagree with is how you compared slime isekai to tsukimichi. The way I see it is that slime basically has multiple seasons and even a movie on its belt. (Pretty sure 24 eps on S1) so it has alot of time to build up and showcase. Of course Im not claiming that the first 12 eps of both shows should be compared nor do I think tsukimichi could become as popular/good. Because I don't know whats in the source material or how the fans would react to it. Im just glad its been seemingly announced S2 but idk the details. But hoping it gets more love in the future in general.

Unfortunately the web novel has been on hiatus for a long time, but I've caught up to where it currently is and it's amazing. With the polish that a light novel adaptation would give it, rather than an amateur translation, it would definitely rate up there with Slime and Spider in my opinion. I wouldn't rate it up there with Bookworm, but I don't think anything I've read so far reaches Bookworm yet.

[@techno0.782]

they talked about all the details and past and deeper details later on in the series, the manga is really interesting, especially as it goes on and on.

[@SoldierSpiderx]

I actually like the build up of this anime that it start off slow and he builds up his relationship with other race to start a whole town, it remember me of that time i got reincarnated as a slime to and I love how even from the begining we found out he so OP that he had to wear ring to drain his magic cause he got some many and people think he weak and my favorite part of the entire anime it when makoto angry that that scene is crazy. Seeing Makoto killing someone in this cold- hearted way is freakingly scary, but feels satisfying as well hope we get season 2 soon

[@davidford3115]

I agree with you. The scariness is offset by the catharsis of the characters who abused Makoto and his allies getting their comeuppance. "Maddened into misanthropy" is often mischaracterized as sociopathic behavior when in fact it is an entirely predictable response to horrible treatment.

[@TK-nn8jd]

Tsukimichi is definitely worth watching, I really hope it gets a season 2. PS I really need to stop commenting before finishing the video. Amend my comment above to "I'm really glad it's getting a season 2."

[@vedritmathias9193]

I don't remember if it was mentioned in the anime (might be mentioned in the next season because related stuff happens) but when the different groups of humans ('hyuman' in the series) go to war, it starts off with a sort of beauty contest, where the armies send forth their most attractive person in an attempt to earn the strongest blessing from the Goddess for their army.

[@Jason_Quinn]

The great thing about Tsukimichi is that the story is refined when it changes medium. The web novel is slightly different from the manga, which is slightly different from the anime. I love this story and I highly recommend you read the source.

I was happy when I heard the opening singer make a song for one of the chain saw endings as well.

[@HaloseBetaM14]

I wouldn't say he has sociopathic tendencies. His Earth morals are just incompatible with this new world. His pseudo daughter got killed among his subordinates who he viewed as friends. The adventures were not wrong to do what they did in the eyes of the humans or the goddess. So he snapped. Even without the manga we can tell he has a good personality and tries to avoid conflict as much as possible.

[@davidford3115]

Indeed. The trope "maddened into misanthropy" comes to mind. Treat a person and his comrades like dog-trash, don't be surprised if they end up responding in kind.

It’s a decent story for an iseaki, but it’s a fair take what you say. That last battle will have a continuation if they do adapt more seasons. Knowing that we both know Overlord’s novels well, it is not as good as that, but it’s still interesting.

[@CoffeeSorcerer69]

The Manga, if you read it, is so far at it's current point, the most complete version of the series, as it combines the LN and WN. However, it only updates once a month, and the manga is on break this month. Also, Makoto's "Psycho Mode" is actually a pretty common, phenomenon in a people that you'd see in soldiers and just people in general if they tend to be in rough situations a lot.

[@noneofyourbuisness6244]

Warning: Spoilers As someone who read the novel I can confirm that the entire world will become more intricate and that there really isn't a fully good faction in this Story. To our main boy Makoto I can tell you that he realizes at some point that his mental state is far from normal but he honestly doesn't care. However he is seen as absolutely terriefying to all Characters that notice this trait and also know the power he holds. Which leads to many recognizing that he is the actual Threat to the current World and that the Demon lord is just a Small Fry in Comparison ( Mind you he is not Weak ). And although he keeps being delusional & humble about himself. There is a certain graphic scene of him turning an almost immortal servant of the goddess into well..... When she realized that she would die she teleported away only to find out there is no place far away enough to be out of reach of the absolute Monster that is Makoto with his Bow. Her Friends could only watch as one arrow after the other lodged themselves in her vital points, limbs an so on until she finally stopped regenerating. Yeah Makoto is definitely not what you would call a hero at this point. And this scene is just one of many, many red flags.

[@shadowmaster335]

ye, at that point it is literally "by the grace of the god are you allowed to live" type scenario, god i can't wait for makoto to cast the goddess down from her throne, and you know it's comming, i mean the story is building up to it

[@savingstumps]

I think if they showed the other 2 heroes it would have shown some more of the depth, like why everyone was fighting those last 2 episodes. But, they can only fit so much into one 12 episode season.

[@retrogecko2859]

If you can find an English version of the manga it gives much more of the other two heroes leading up to his fight with Sofia and Mitsurugi

[@davidford3115]

I tend to agree. While early Isekai Anime were mostly created as a hook to get people into the manga or light novels, I think Kadokawa and the others have realize that with the western audiences, it is better to have the first season set up the pieces on the chess board with the second season being the opening moves of the greater story arc (s).

One of the cool things to me is that Tomoe and Mio are not conveniently shape shifting monsters, they are just a dragon and a fuckin calamity spider, but the contract they sign with Mikoto gives them a humanoid form by adopting his characteristics. This also brings into play something I find really funny in that Tomoe and Mio being absolutely gorgeous implies that Mikoto genetically should have been a handsome guy but just wasn't most likely due to the same reason that he is so powerful in the new world, magic.

[@UnluckyHistorian]

So someone else already commented on this, but I feel like it should be repeated because not enough people know about it. Makoto has had personal health issues that led to him becoming all too familiar with death, and to him, the idea of dying and death has reached a level of casualness that most people would find sociopathic.

[@NarutoTsunadefan1]

If I remember reading correctly, Tsukimichi actually came out first before Slime when it was being written so it kind of hit the building a demihuman nation before Slime. I will say I think that if the anime had more than 12 episodes, it’d probably be as good as Slime because the first season actually skipped quite a lot of interesting plot points from the series. That’s the problem when the season only has 12 episodes, they skip stuff. So yeah, hopefully they don’t skip anything in season 2.

If you enjoy good isekais with a believable world-building, characters with their own drives and motivations, people as people and not NPCs, conflicts unsolvable by being OP, and also fantasy-world politics, I would suggest either Ascendance of Bookworm or Ideal Sponger Life. The former has an anime, but it’s not ideal. Both of them have manga and LN.

watched it. read the manga. read the webnovel. got cucked from author doing a 2 year hiatus. it still hurts... the story so far is 10/10 though P.S: the deeper points you mention like the parents of makoto and the effect of various situations and his psychy are not directly adressed allthroughout the webnovel so far. thats what i especially like about the story. there are a lot of situations where makoto reflects about his situation and the moral-dilemmas and his development is adressed in kind of a meta layer where you have to interpret his standpoint yourself. they really did a good job of showing the thoughts of the characters and everyone has a well fleshed out personality. therefore you as the reader are not directly hit on the nose with a fact of the matter discription of a moral problem makoto is facing but you are shown it from his and others perspective as well and are forced to apply your own values to it and find a position for yourself. even it the translation was a little wobbly sometimes it was really good read. imo this is one of the best anime storys there is. as i understand it is the last ark of the webnovel and i hope to god the author will finish it soon.

[@Mrfox-YouTube]

Honestly I thought the mc was more handsome than some of the other charecters in that show.

[@isaacdixon3289]

Well in the manga they do go more in depth into Kuzunoha's mental blockage and it's not one he intentionally has. It was forced upon him and reinforced by his own body dysmorphia/inferiority complex.

[@joshk8312]

I have been acheing for the next season.

[@carlosvillalba8617]

I didnt watch the video yet, but the intro was great. "watch the f**** show" 😂 i'll watch it just for that

[@hovthegod3025]

I can describe this series in one sentence...GO READ THE LIGHT NOVEL

[@user-mf4ms7zq3i]

Give the manga a read, it's really good, and check the WN after, it's similar in a few ways with Overlord and Mushoku tensei, and just as good

[@VRenaissanceRen]

[@TheAngryOnion]

One of my favorite series. I made a misumi makoto cosplay.

So this Isekai is a diet version of the slime isekai.

[@madambutterfly1997]

Love this anime

[@PoringPoring951]

Yes

[@KoenigFPS]

I thought you already watched this show. Its a really good anime and manga Later in the story it slows down and turns into more like a slice of life but its still really enjoyable

[@aleeshagilbert1009]

I don't know Japanese, but I watched it twice over and listened to it while doing stuff so now I can quote everything through words I don't know. Is that weird?

[@aidenarzamendi3098]

Aye you actually watched it

[@yuku6921]

yeah this show and the manga is fire
