The Anime Thread

[Josquius]

Apparently the current season has a lot of very good shows.
I've started watching one which I think might be up some people here's alley, "From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman", which despite the name isn't some low budget isekai.

Its a normal no alternate world's involved fantasy show about a middle aged guy -Yes, an actual middle aged guy as an anime main character. No he's not in a child's body or anything like that. He's just a 40-something guy- who is the master at his village sword dojo. Seems to live a pretty chill quiet life teaching generation after generation of students, living with his parents who keep bugging him for grandkids.

One day a former student turns up who has risen to become captain of the country's knights to invite him to go teach in the capital. He encounters a few other former students who have also become successful and it turns out it isn't just memories from childhood playing tricks on them, he actually is the best swordsman any of them have ever met.

I've heard it likened to Friren and Mushoku Tensei. Only seen one episode so far but curious to see where they take it.

It remains to be seen (pun intended), for those who grew up with the original anime.

If we're all old here, nobody is really old.  Except Grumbler, of course.
