Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for my Retirement (2023) User Reviews

senseless but sometimes a little funny

There's no story here, its just a sequence of dumb inconsequential events leading to nowhere, the plot alone is stupid or at least not explored deeply enough.....

The comedy is there and really funny at time but its not enough to carry the whole childishly written story, i have repeatedly found my self questioning who the target audience is because the intelligence behind this show is in the single digits......

Overall its not annoying but in the end it all feels like a total waste of time, id only recommend you watch this if you really have nothing else to watch and you are tired of sleeping.....

Every time I watch an episode of this, I want to give it another 10 stars. 😅

Utterly amazing! The story has everything I like. The main character can move between a fantasy world & ours, so they decide to do something really smart, & that is to make profits by trading! But there is so much depth to this. This new world has politics, various characters, and a great sense of realism. The authors have really done their research even with many simple things. The story keeps advancing, though it may seem slow for some, I just love it. This is certainly my new, most favorite, not just anime, but series, of all time. I really hope it does not end after a dozen or so episodes. This has enormous potential for content, think Naruto, Bleach, et cetera. The way this was made, it could easily be thousands of episodes. Such a brillaint world & overall design. Love it.

Easily one of the best Animes of all time!

The series had a very strange but also alluring title, so I thought of trying the it out.

It turned out to be one of the most hilarious, funny, but at the same time thoughtful and profound amines I've seen in a long time.

It borrows the theme of building a trading business between parallel worlds from the "The Merchant Princes" series by Charles Stross. It then applies the lead role of traveler on a very different, young and energetic Japanese woman named Mitsuha.

At first glance this may look like "shoujo anime" for girls, but very soon our heroine learns she need to take a genuine course in how to handle weapons and build a relation with those who can supply adequate protection in a world both similar and at the same time very different from our own.

I think the twelve episodes makes for a complete series, but I sincerely hope it will be greenlighted for a second season!
