That Time I Reincarnated as Another Weak Creature Yet Somehow Became Overpowered.
Series in more sentences:
An entire classroom suddenly falls victim to a freak explosion and are reincarnated inside a different, magical world.
While most of them take on a human form, the class outcast hatches from an egg as a baby spider. Though weak and vulnerable, her determination, love for video games, and curious nature help her strategize a way out of the mazy cave she's born in, and level up in unheard ways.
It was alright. Good enough to earn that good rating, anyway. The first episodes were focussed on the spider's journey to becoming stronger, which was very video gamey; and thus might only interest people who are into RPG's. Like me, I suppose.
But it was nice to see a character work hard at getting better and not instantly succeed every time by default. She had a real struggle to go through.. until the story decided she should get an immortality perk, but alright.
I did get a bit bored whenever it switched over to the human side of the story. It was interesting at parts, but not consistently so. It was also confusing to learn that these scenes were supposedly a huge time skip into the future, while the spider scenes are the past. It took the anime a bit too long to convey that, but perhaps the intention was to give the audience a twist.
It's pretty depressing to imagine the spider has been fighting for her life inside a scary cave for so many years, without losing her sanity. That would normally traumatize and demotivate any normal human being, or rather, I imagine a mousy girl like her would've been. She didn't look like the adventurous stoic type when she was still a human.
The 3D models in this series are distractingly bad and the story could've sped up at times, but I mostly enjoyed it. The spider has more personality than the main character from that other overpowered critter show, even if I'd likely choose to watch that over this again.
Also, if nobody can actually see those kawaii eyeballs on her face, I would've preferred they left them out of her design. She looks better without. But alright, hardly an issue.
