Unraveling My ‘TSUKIMICHI -Moonlit Fantasy’ Experience: A Surprising Journey 🌙✨

My thoughts in video form 😉


Hello to all the anime enthusiasts out there! 🌟 Today, I’m diving into something quite personal - my experience with the anime ‘TSUKIMICHI -Moonlit Fantasy.’ Despite its high ratings on Crunchyroll and two gorgeous female support characters, I found myself disconnecting from the series. So, grab your favorite snack, and let’s get into the nitty-gritty of why this hyped series didn’t quite make it to my must-watch list.

The Build-Up: High Hopes for an Isekai Adventure 🏰
As a fan of the isekai genre, I had marked my calendar and cleared my weekend for a deep dive into ‘TSUKIMICHI.’ The protagonist’s resemblance to Iruma from ‘Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun’ only heightened my excitement, making me think it would align perfectly with my anime taste.

The Unexpected Snooze: Where It Lost Me 😴
However, things took a turn. To my own surprise, I ended up falling asleep – not once, but twice before I even reached episode 6. This was a clear sign that something was missing. The show, though visually appealing and conceptually interesting, lacked the grip I expected from such a popular series.


Appreciating the Positives: What I Enjoyed 🌼
It wasn’t all a miss, though. There were elements I genuinely admired:

  • The main character’s selfless decision to venture into another world for his sisters’ safety was both brave and touching.
  • The concept of building a village in a demi-plane was intriguing and presented a fresh take on the isekai setting.
  • The main character, although physically strong, wasn’t depicted as overly powerful. His eagerness to learn and grow was a commendable trait.

The Downside: Missing the Mark 🤔
Despite these positives, several aspects didn’t resonate with me:

  • The narrative felt somewhat generic. The familiar trope of a male lead surrounded by powerful, adoring female characters seemed more like fan fulfillment rather than a compelling storyline.
  • The characters, while potentially interesting, lacked the depth and emotional range I typically look for. They didn’t create that bond or investment I usually feel with anime characters, unlike the diverse and expressive cast of ‘Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun.’
  • While I’m no stranger to enjoying slow-paced shows, such as ‘By the Grace of the Gods,’ ‘TSUKIMICHI’ seemed to miss out on meaningful character development. This led to a fear that it might spiral into a ‘monster of the week’ format, with episodes becoming interchangeable due to a lack of progress in the story or character growth.

A Comparison with Similar Titles: Setting Expectations 🔄
Some have compared ‘TSUKIMICHI’ to ‘That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime,’ suggesting it gets better with time. My relationship with ‘Slime’ was similarly fluctuating – initially dropping it, then returning to enjoy it, and eventually leaving it again. Perhaps my initial expectations for ‘TSUKIMICHI,’ based on these comparisons, were misaligned with the show’s actual pacing and style.

Looking Ahead: Giving It Another Chance? 🔍
With the announcement of a new season coming in January and the plethora of positive reviews, I’m contemplating giving ‘TSUKIMICHI’ another chance. Could it be that I missed out on something special? Or maybe the upcoming season will bring something new to the table that aligns more with my tastes.
