Uglymug EpicSimp Get a load of this guy.. 640https://i.ibb.co/tTdnNRmy/Screenshot20250927165152.png First impressions? As a fat ugly monk this facial disposition spoke to me.. 640https://i.ibb.co/mC2Dp00X/Screenshot20250927164552.png 640https://i.ibb.co/vxqkcJGg/Screenshot20250927164748.png 640https://i.ibb.co/2YRcWjdQ/Screenshot20250927164840.png Whos the most dangerous monster ever alive? I pondered. The Leviathan? The Behemoth? No. The Simp. Brethren where did we go wrong? Look at that ugly mug man This was supposed to be a show for the men We are supposed to get some epic unadulterated ruthless coldness and action. A sea of specially spicedup skullduggery. Were back again with another Nothing ever happens bonanza turn your brain off nooneofconsequence dies and were just doing dramatic dances around a circular plot line. The Problem.. Sucker Idolizing Mediocre Pussy SIMP is a contextually specific word only applying in one fixed direction to the male to female dynamicA woman cannot simp A man cannot simp for another man. The greatest crime perpetrated by these kind of shows. We start with an intriguing premise the promise of fascinating goals redemption genuine grievances and suffering a seemingly profound MC. The first sequences sell us a dream then once weve been ensnared and theyve got our attention the steadfast bait and switch occurs. All the greatness and potential neglected deserted forsaken to pivot to subplots about babysitting some random girl as we watch on gleefully in our conveniently placed chair next to the bed of a hotel room. Ill list a few of shows which have done this... The Worlds Finest Assassin S2 Improved My FarmRelated Skills Farming Life in Another World Spirit Chronicles Shield hero. Greatest Alchemist. Surely you agree that its getting out of hand. It completely ruins the shows potential we have greatness locked behind the obligatory stroking of female egos its like Isekai 9/11 a completely fabricated inside job spelling doom for this genre. We have the same forced backstories for these annoying girls which are completely unbelievable with manufactured suffering forced placative exposition borne from fake morality based in simping. They can try all they like Its not even remotely fascinating or remarkable. When you have the gold right there why do they abandon it for the same rusty iron trash? Theyre so afraid they wont get a female audience that they crucify it all for their sake. Just take a glance at the cover of the show which women seeing that are going to watch something so rough looking anyways? These writers evidently lack talent actual life experience and lastly courage. These editors seemingly only know to use the so called tricks of the trade but its all for naught and breeds decadence. Not only are the developments so uninspired and mediocre theyre afraid of any controversy at all. The guy is already the ugliest person in any of the shows this season why are they still afraid to go deeper with the fantastical elements. Im very sad to say brethren that experiences like Redo are far removed from our future. Its over This bingewatch was grueling for me I had to take a break intraepisodes as well as inter episodes several times what it could have been if it actually cared about its audience. I dont know about you i much prefer looking at that hideous gargoyle over any girls in the show. The problem is that 25 of this shows runtime is him observing girls from a distance but hes not a pervert guys I promise Hes just being protective wholesome and concerned BASED No Ive had enough can we just admit were men and were attracted to women and if someone calls us a pervert not only does not matter we dont care because thats the point? We watch this dejected man get reincarnated into a fat ugly troglodyte so he can do this with his new life? Its just so ludicrous it even encouraged my own selfreflection. Once you dash away the premise abandoning world building whats left is that were stuck in a loop of drama focused SOL woman worshipping. Calling the bitches pretty 5x an episode whilst being willingly castrated. Whats worse the writer gave the MC a completely Antiwoman disposition in which he is viscerally harmed upon touching them and will die on the spot if he ever engages in copulation. This is a tradeoff for his completely OP stats. In short he cant sleep with them he cant make a habit of touching them. If these limitations are the core elements of the story you would hope this is an opportunity to stay far away from women and harems and focus on fantasy elements worldbuilding gameworld mechanics world domination may I list more. Weve got none of that. Instead we have such unbelievably foolish execution its just gets so mindbogglingly stupid and circular that youll laugh at how ridiculously convenient the plot gets. Tell me Soldier? What really do we have left here any talk with the opposite sex leads nowhere and we have zero chance of any real intersexual affinity. We end up wasting precious developments on women who without any chance of sexual intimacy are at very muted story potential. I thought about the restrictions even more and I just realized that his whole list of restrictions is a sorry excuse to engage in generational level cuckoldry. I thinkback to a scene where a man describes him as a girls bodyguard furthermore with some thought hes basically her eunuch slave. I recall at some point theres a stark picture where MC is Standing up in a meeting room observing as her slave while shes sat down talking with a strange man. This strange man whos peculiarly is only there to make a meal out of her stupidity. You have to take a step back and understand the depiction of such a thing. its far too deep to be ignored It illustrates to me that we as the viewer are him the writer ignores our wishes and instead detours the entire narrative entrapping us into his chamber of simp delusions. But wait if Im observing him cuckolding through a screen what does that make me? Perhaps Im an Epiccuckold if we follow that logic... Again you would hope with such a plot device creating a massive deterrence against women It would breed something more nuanced fresh and creative. We instead have managed to get the exact opposite. Take a look: 640https://i.ibb.co/pvqNHcV2/Screenshot20250923035723.png This is what you must become accustomed to whilst watching this show pitiful isnt it? Characters Uglymug Epic fighter. Not only is this title utterly meaningless by the twelfth episode he simply doesnt live up to it. Its all talk and youre going to be drowning in it. After 12 episodes the MC doesnt feel like a real person. His perils in his former life do not seem to affect him at all theres no rage theres no revenge its like a slap on the knee then he becomes our cookiecutter omnibenevolent sacrifices his entire identity to help others garbage MC. What a letdown Half an episode of a setup which should have produced a different beast alltogether. Its hard to care about a characters struggles if they dont even feel them. Its pitiful writing yet again. These side characters dont save the show either the chemistry isnt there their motivations are contrived and unrealistic. Theres no where to run maybe a singular likeable character thats about it. One of my biggest problems is in the day to day discussion between the characters. The first episode is not utterly terrible but after that its just dull dialogue as deep as a puddle. Who ever was incharge of the conversation either couldnt be asked or doesnt understand ping pong mechanisms in general discourse. Its constantly 12 5 Theyre talking past each other or answering the wrong question or just saying random stuff giving away crucial information for no reason. The conversation is just so unnatural. These random expositions and blurting out of the obvious by these characters its too much make it stop I dont know how its possible for the dialogue to keep reiterating that the same girl is beautiful/pretty feels like Im being programmed or something its certainly an eerie experience. Oh the humour well they tried I guess. Theyre making laughing feel like a job here Im not programmed for this sort of drivel anymore. To fully enjoy the humour that it tries to sell you it seems you must first hate your own existence as a man worshipping the divine feminine. However its not all doom and gloom here I did end up in hysterics momentarily when the plot got to advanced degrees of total stupidity and convenience. The show is a little bit funny in that respect but it seems far from intentional. Generally I love inner monologue for this sort of show. It creates a new dimension giving us valuable insight into the thinking patterns ideals and true character of the MC. They did not do well not only is the inner monologue blindingly stupid it reiterates and repeats things we already know. This culminates in shamelessly extending runtime and ruining the charm of actual dialogue. We dont need to be reminded his next remark will be witty due to his previous work in his former life. We already know this just get on with it. It should show through the discourse. It doesnt solve the MCs characterization problems like it should since 90 of it is just him talking about a girl or stating obvious things we can see already. Amateur work here as the whole point of video is to replace paragraphs of descriptive writing in a handful of seconds. You know what its remarkably bizarre how this mans desires as an MC are barely expressed his entire existence is to prop some other character up they dont fathom how repulsive and how empty as a narrative this is. Make people smile? How worthless Which man do you know cares about something so fleetingly superficial. To make matters worse theres a moment where hes on his knees asking to be a girls protector. How very puzzling and uncharacteristic of him as we ponder the unfortunate chain of events the start of this show. Continuing on after his proposal she agreed and wanted to handshake. What a onesided agreement. What is she offering to match such an ostentatiously benevolent proposition? Of course you guessed it nothing. Do you comprehend it now? 640https://i.ibb.co/1t56k0DY/Screenshot20250923023728.png So we know that he cannot handshake with a woman as that would evoke a terrifying amount of unnecessary pain. Obviously if this is his wish he should settle for a verbal agreement. Because of the simp narrative rather he chose to make physical contact receiving the recompense of his inanity. Lets conclude he gave everything for nothing and then took avoidable physical pain for this deal to happen. This isnt even faintly a reasonable development by any respect its only tolerable in a wayward society that is so religiously married to the god of romance using the avatar the woman the vector by which these rituals are performed. If this depiction doesnt make you wretch in abhorrence you may be serving this same false god. How did we get here? If youre going to offer up your life to protect a woman theres no Handshake for moments like these the only thing they can offer is a permanent prescription of Milkshake and Cookies as well as obedient servitude or theres no deal. Plot So much potential squandered for the most mundane drama squabble putting MC in the middle of a brood of hens. Fantasy elements barely explored gameworld mechanics used sparingly and when convenient worldbuilding nonexistent characterization terrible. Would you offer to be the Life Protector of a woman when they gave some burgers and chips that you were owed a few times? I mean is the bare minimum from a girl all you guys need now? Wheres the standards? The limitations the show introduces might do more liberating than it does restrict the way these things are designed makes it possible for the writer to just inject any exposition to justify doing pretty much anything. This makes for a very inconsistent experience a total lack of immersion and sometimes outright disgust at shoehorned spontaneous conflict resolution. Literally everything is made up on the spot theres zero foreshadowing no general plotline we dont even know anything. They love to make death mean nothing and their lives and vocations utterly amorphous universalized lacking any specificity. Initially I praised the writer for introducing such restraint to the character but as I watched more it seemed that it didnt rein in anything It didnt use the device as intended but rather provided a platform to invent nonsense devices which further scatter the narrative. It turns out that if he touches a girl through cloth its fine sheer poppycock What if he uses a condom during intercourse does that work too? I guess Ill never know. Story Theres no story just a bunch of pontification and platitudes achieving nothing. No one meaningfully undergoes any character development. The sequences of events are spontaneous lacking logic or any plan. The events barely affect any of the characters as they try to flood you with a sea of information and backstories. If your brain is on their actions and words will run at odds with the reasoning centres of your cerebrum. Its puzzling exhausting and at the end of it I was going through the motions desperately lookingon for the final seconds of the 12th episode. Whats the good? He does try very hard to hide his power and to be somewhat discrete about stats which is the kind of tension that keeps viewers invested preventing me from dropping it. Animation is generally quite sound. Especially I will mention Episode 8 a true standout for me It took barely any breaks with the actionpacked physical conflicts taking centrestage it never gets as good again. The sound direction was surprisingly good as a bonus. The OP and ED are decent the soundtrack is actually quite good completely wasted on this show. The Voice acting is hit or miss some characters great some will make you want to turn the sound down but it was passable in this respect. If youve already started Episode 8 is a great jumpoff spot If not dont bother. What lessons does the show teach? If youre an ugly reclusive outcast who has been done injustice by society for crimes you didnt commit even you can secure your rightful place as a SuperSimp servant for some random girl. Good grief Its just pitiful Japans below replacement rate and their response is for their writers to create shows like this where a man is castrated and worshipping the same demons that are denying their own replacement. A show so bad it made me a cuck therapist recommendations anyone? Second season? No chance..
