| Such a good finale That "welcome home,Rentt Faina" bit is just so satisfying to hear after 12 episodes,wish we got season 2 to see the development of all the characters |
| Another fake hero's journey. A death that makes him stronger, a cursed mask that is actually a boon, needing blood but in insignificant quantities and it's forgotten as soon as he travels, women throwing themselves at him etc. All in all another miserable fail of a show. |
| I went into this anime without knowing anything, think that it would be another generic power fantasy anime. I was so wrong. The ending is so satisfying, especially with that music. I like how the anime give me just enough information to comprehend the story, but not too much to ruin the mysteries. There are so much more to uncover. I can't wait for season 2. |
 |
| Big sad this ended; good watch. Really solid anime with nice non-rushed progression. Also Lorraine too hot to have this guy be so oblivious. |
| . |
| And so we end with learning Rentt's backstory and his successful evolution into a vampire. Boy, we've been having quite a few skeleton protagonists in recent years now haven't we? Granted Rentt didn't stay one for long, but still. I enjoyed this series quite a bit. I was eager to see where Rentt's evolutions went and I enjoyed seeing him interact with the rest of the cast. That his love interest of sorts Lorraine was stunningly beautiful didn't hurt either lol. I would absolutely watch a second season if we got one, but am skeptical it will come. Solid 7/10. |
| So Rentt says his reason for becoming a mythril class adventurer isn’t very interesting, then he proceeds to the tell the tale of his family dying and how he was saved by a mythril class adventurer lol, it was pretty interesting to me. And the fight scene between the adventurer and that wolf monster looked pretty nice, lots of close ups but good looking for sure, and this definitely gives Rentt’s goal a lot more meaning, it’s fitting for the final episode. And becoming a vampire wasn’t a walk in the park, as it appeared Rentt nearly lost himself but Lorraine pulled him back to reality and now we have a Rentt that is definitely a vampire but looks a lot more human now than he ever did. And those last two scenes between Rentt and Lorraine were very nice to end on, not sure where the story goes from here but I felt it was a satisfying stopping point. This was quite the unique fantasy anime, I especially found myself liking the world building and the aspect of Rentt getting stronger by evolving over time, it was a different kind of journey than usual, going from a deadhead to the end goal of becoming a vampire was a fun ride. And I was surprised by how little we saw of who I thought would be a main character, being Rina, and instead it was really Lorraine who was the female lead and kept Rentt’s head straight over the course of his long strange trip, and I liked this aspect of the show a lot as well. I also gotta mention the ost in this show, it really helps with the atmosphere and getting immersed, not to mention the OP which was a very cool song, as well as the ED which hooked me from the start and is one of those rare times where I can say it might just be my number 1 from this season, it’s so good. A Season 2 would be cool to see for this since despite the goal of Rentt becoming a vampire being reached, he still has not become a mythril class adventurer so in that aspect I feel things are just getting started, so of course I’d love another season of this. |
| a short story but okay i enjoyed it... doesnt seem to have a second season for this... but fine dont mind some ova with extra content |
| This was one of the satisfying series of Winter 2024. Even though it initially got some criticism for the use of CGI, it got better with each episode. |
This anime was about Rentt? Oh man, I really thought it was about Lorraine. Nooooo!! I'm gonna miss my waifu! |

| @Sokah There wasn't really any hero journey in first place. This is slice of life show. Only boon mask bring is that it hides his face and it was bought for that purpose. Blood need was addressed. Also we are talking about whole two women and only one of them has any significant screentime. |
| Nice and pleasant end :) The way they wrapped things up SCREAMS season 2 tho, so we'll be waiting! And of course, Lorraine is mighty fine as always ;) |

| @Janethan23 pov: you're Rentt in season 2 |
|
| another anime ended, damn this season went by so fast lol we got to see his flashback and know why he wanted to become a mythril class, rip his family and the girl the guy who saved him was also a mythril class and he told him how to become one ofc we know how that turned out, 20 years in training and still bronze lol tho, thanks to his luck, he got stronger by dying and reviving as an undead, and now as a vampire, he basically looks like his old self apart from his red eyes and the little wings that he can hide anyway apart from Rent... we also had other characters Loraine, Sheila and the other adventurers (like the couple and the blonde) were also fun to watch i'm not sure what to rate this, so i'll go ahead and give it an 8, it was a good anime, hopefully there's a season 2 someday |
fav "new" girls from spring <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks |
| So it ended with a successful transformation and the reveal of the past. Really enjoyed the ride, kind of sad it ends here. Enjoyed this much more than the manga, a solid adaptation. |
 |
| This one was nice and cozy, but as is the case way to many times, it fizzled out in the second half. It attracted by the slightly slice of life, down to earth, adventurer who is very experienced, but kind of a pushover, so when he gets a slightly stronger body and a "face" that makes him isolated, he finally has a chance to advance at his own pace. This quickly gets thrown out of the window in place of standard LN "the weakest becomes the strongest through the power of plot" and it gets even more ridiculous in the manga ahead. So... a nice 7/10 or whatever from me. Lorraine is top tier waifu tho |
| Well, that's a solid backstory for wanting to become a Mythril-class adventurer. Poor Rentt. So Rentt got his fully human appearance back. I thought there were going to be a few more steps until that but it makes sense to have a full season with that goal and it feels good for him. It was nice to see Rina with Ryze and Laura but why the hell was she on the promotional poster side by side with Rentt? We've barely seen her xD. I'll take your word for it Rentt, I hope Lorraine will join you on future adventures. It's exciting to see what he can do now as a vampire but sadly, this is already over. I finally got to catch up with the series this week and it's been great to follow Rentt's adventures in his quest to regain his humanity while helping people along the way. Lorrarine has been wonderful, I've loved her since the first episode and I'm going to miss her. Hopefully we can get to see more of this series in the future. |
| I didn't like how they cut a majority of his backstory, but the ending was good regardless. It's one of the better fantasies out there, and I'm hoping a Season 2 happens. |
 |
| Lorraine is such a good character. Total support and understanding without the harping and no trying to change the MC. |
| The title couldn't of been further from the truth, "The Undead Unwanted adventurer" the MC isn't disliked by anyone he's just undead and self conscious about it. Literally no one seems to care he's undead beyond the 1st chick who meets him as a ghoul. Some of the most lackluster storytelling. |
| I appreciated this series, not a masterpiece but a solid entertaining anime, interesting plot and fascinating astmosphere, and... Lorraine was a bonus. I would watch a season 2. |
| It was kinda funny when Rentt was floating naked in that shallow water and had no phallus XD |
Gameboon said: I'm really happy this series got an anime adaptation and I enjoyed watching it every week. There isn't much to say that hasn't been said already, either here or in the reviews. I guess I'm happy with that we have gotten in these twelve episodes, rather than sad that it ended. I really can't see this anime becoming succesful enough to get a second season, but who knows. KANLen09 said: The Faraway Paladin While I wasn't entirely satisfied with the first season of Saihate no Paladin, I did get a lot of enjoyment from the second season. It's very to-the-point, and like you said, kinda old-school. Marinate1016 said: Very sweet ending and definitely got me interested enough to buy the LN to see where they go from here. I can't recommend the LN enough. Been reading it for years and it's one of my favorites. I'm still surprised the anime managed to adapt it decently enough. But as there isn't much action, I feel it has a much more niche audience among anime watchers. It's more slice-of-life in a sense than anything else. Speaking of favorites, what series can you recommend? I haven't really been watching much anime the past years partially because I got tired of typical anime tropes, and every time I check back in I don't really see anything fresh. TheColonel76 said: I also gotta mention the ost in this show, it really helps with the atmosphere and getting immersed Yeah, the music has been great. I hope the OST will land on YouTube or something. 86 first of all, if you haven’t seen it. Then vivy, frieren and kusuriya, Bokuyaba, OnK, Onimai etc depends what you like normally. Anime in general is better than ever and getting better every season |

| Damn, losing both his parents, granny, and childhood friend on top of that, all at age 5--would traumatize most people from the tragedy. I'm glad Rentt persevered. I'm sad this was the final episode...it was such a pleasure to see a down to earth genuine fantasy story following a hero's journey instead of the cookie-cut out isekais (not that I don't like mass-produced cookies anymore, but I just need a break now and then). The relationship with Loraine is perfect and wholesome. I absolutely hope we get a second season of this. A solid 10/10 for me. |

Anime in general is better than ever and getting better every season Thanks for the fast reply and suggestions. From a quick glance, those seem pretty varied. Although I couldn't find Onimai or OnK - which anime do these shorthands stand for? I already had Frieren on my list, but I like to wait until a series is done airing nowadays before I start watching. Watching Undead Unwanted Adventurer on a weekly basis was an exception for me. Onimai should come up that’s weird, but Oshi no Ko is the second |
|
| i love how they put the knight girl on the cover as if shes relevant lol |
   |
| fantastic anime and a great ending, honestly, I hope for s2 cuz I wanna see his new vampire powers. Can't think of any downsides to this anime, it had fantastic chararcter growth, good fights, and overall it was pretty good. A solid 8 if I've ever watched one. |
 |
| at least the season ended with him regaining his old face back, although he can't remove the mask now, which seems to work to his advantage coz it'll help hide his red eyes. hopefully there's a second season to this; i wanna see if rentt gets to meet up with that mythril-class adventurer that inspired him to become one himself. |
       |
| My 262nd completed series chronologically. For the record, I extended it a 6/10 rating. |

| While it was nice that we got to see what Rentt's childhood was like man the fate of his friend sure was dark. Grim as that was for Rentt i can see where his inspiration to become an adventurer came from. Being able to see how the one's that were affected by his actions was a nice touch. Congrats to Rentt for evolving once more into something thats not just more powerful but far more human like. Looking forward to seeing another season for this. |

| Underwatch series of the season. I enjoyed it. So, will Rentt be hunting Holo in his next adventure? |
| The previous episode started to lose me a bit, and had me thinking "glad that this is almost over". This last episode, however, has me thinking "IT'S OVER ALREADY??!!" I don't know if Rentt ever will fully become human again, but this is probably the closest he's going to get to that state, and I'm glad that we ended the season with Lorraine finally being able to see his face again. He just has some red eyes now and some wings.... but I guess he's a vampire that's okay with sunlight, so that's a plus. Man's essentially an enhanced human, which will definitely aid him in his journey to become mithril-class. He may be requiring more blood now though as a vampire, which he will probably keep getting from Lorraine. And I'll just come out and admit that I definitely won't mind some Lorraine blood-sucking scenes >:) Anyway, man am I glad that I decided to eventually watch this even though at the start of the season I completely disregarded it (picked up most anime airing this season, and dropped like over half of what I did pick up)- having an undead adventurer as the main character just didn't seem that appealing. But man oh man I don't know how it does it, but after almost every episode you just can't help but feel warm and cozy inside somehow. That calming ED certainly helps, but the show itself just has its own kind of wholesome that relaxes you in its own way. Yes of course I would like more, but if this is it for the anime, I am more than happy with what we've got. 7.4/10 |

| man this anime is more like a premise about mc's evolution from a zombie to a vampire if there is no season 2. in the middle a lot of eps were wasted to project meaningless events as how the mc completed dungeons and rescued NPCs until the final ep that the mc's important background story was truly revealed. |
| Very nice and cozy anime that keep stay in 'reverse' classic hero tales tropes, which i adored them. Almost similar with Saihate Paladin, but with less plot and more fantasy-sol'esqe style. Good good. Really hoped for s2, the story was far for complete. |
 |
| Loved the ending to the season, I hope to god this gets a second season! One of my favourites of the season, will probably go read the source material now. |
 |
| as mediocre as it gets. I'll probably forget about this show in a couple hours |
