The biggest reason this anime falls into the fantasy genre isn't just the magic or monsters, but the fact that a healthy human so dense and oblivious as the MC is unrealistic. This trait is shared by many of the characters around him, making it a recurring theme. I must also correct the anime's assertion that the MC has only one strong skill (parry): he and the other characters possess an exceptionally advanced ability to "Jump to Wrong Conclusions"—some are so talented at it, they miss the mark by a mile.
That said, the plot is intriguing, and the MC is likeable. The side characters are not too shallow, and the skill system is reasonable. I also found the portrayal of how the MC got stronger quite interesting. The anime could be a lot of fun to watch, but it feels like the writers either lacked creativity or took the easy way out. The MC didn’t need to be so oblivious to justify the plot. I could see myself giving it a 7/10 if the dumb trope is toned down in future episodes, though it had the potential to be an 8/10.
