One of the best, calm, enjoyable isekai
joshisdre28 March 2023
This is genuinely one of the best isekai I've ever seen especially in a genre that relies on anime girls bouncing their t1ts as a stronghold to get all the kids interested. This anime reminds me of a chill, something I could watch and get done in a day or two, or something I could just watch anywhere overall and of course the art is beautiful its calming it has a nice story some lose ends like, how does his power work, how come he somehow gets online shopping, and what happened to the others how do their power work, but then again this is an isekai anime not a marvel movie lol, but perfect non the less I genuinely hope the genre isekai can take a lot of inspiration from this anime because this proves u do not needs anime girls bouncing their big uwu t1ts around to make an anime interesting. Prefect anime def one of my fav reminds me of reincarnated as a slime in the aspect of just calming and beautiful story line and reminds me of bofuri in just adventure and art- wise. MAPPA DID ITS THING ON THIS.

Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi is an anime that will leave a grit on your face, ravishingly hungry and might possibly leave a hole in your wallet, since most (if not all) of the cooking in the show features a wide arrays of real life ingredients and condiments... and hey the branding is even there so you're not confused when you go looking for it in your online grocery app. What basically is a slice of life, every episode keeps leaving you hungry for more with great characters and great overall charm. Though the charm may feel stale at some point, but fret not, the fantasy settings is sure to keep things fresh.

To claim
Mysterygeneration14 January 2024
To claim that Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi, also known as Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill, written by novelist Ren Eguchi, is the now-famous studio MAPPA's first-ever Isekai endeavor-that is, that this show is MAPPA's Peak-sekai-is not wholly unfounded. Undoubtedly, as a whole, it's fantastic, and MAPPA DID SUCCESSFULLY showcase a respectable Isekai for the first time.

Tsuyoshi Mukouda, the master chef and cowardly salaryman who is the MC, is called to an other realm. In this episode, Mukohda, equipped with the power of the "Online Supermarket," and the "Hero's Party" organization are set up to assist the kingdom in driving out demons. After persuading the nobility, Mukohda eliminates himself from the Isekai race and gains freedom to travel the fantastical realm.

The opening theme song is standard fare for an Isekai series of this kind. The debut song by Van de Shop, "Anisong," blends in nicely with the seductive imagery and sounds alright. Similarly, Yuuma Uchida's ED song "Happy-go-Journey" sounds ordinary as well, so that's not a problem. To put it mildly, it's merely passable, in my opinion.

Among the many copy-paste Isekai shows this season, Cooking Isekai is a breath of fresh air. Despite not being an OP power fantasy, this program is among the greatest we've seen this season since it's just a campy, carefree look at life.

A Wholesome, Adventure - Filled Foodie Experience"
ElianMejia19 January 2023
"Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi is an anime that will leave your mouth watering and your heart full. The animation style is not only nostalgic, but also visually stunning, bringing the dishes to life in a way that will make you want to reach into the screen and taste them. The journey of adventure and the bonds formed along the way are all the more enjoyable when paired with the mouth-watering and delicious food that is central to the story. The main character, a culinary genius, brings a sense of warmth and comfort as he shares his dishes and skills with those around him. The added elements of danger and mystery add an extra layer of excitement to the series. Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi is not just an anime, it's an experience for your senses, where the beauty of food is at the forefront and will keep you engaged and wanting more."

A very chill and enjoyable experience!
zaratecristinarose7 April 2023
As the title of the show suggests, it's a show mainly about cooking. But that doesnt take away from the usual adventure RPG-like theme isekai anime generally have. There are battles, but they dont drag on. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean the battles aren't fun to watch.

Is this harem? Nope.

Is this ecchi? Nope.

Is it violent? Has blood and death (they have to hunt food), but I would not describe it as gory.

Is it a romance anime? Nope. (I dont know if Season 2 has any romance) Is the story completed? As of writing this, the manga is still ongoing. Season 2 is still awaiting green light.

If you want to experience a chill adventure show, look no further! It's the first show I've grown to love so much that I went here to create an account just to give it a 10/10 rating in hopes to see a Season 2 in the near future. I usually don't care.

A One Of A Kind Masterpiece
texjeeps24 August 2023
I've never been a huge anime fan, but Campfire Cooking changed that for me.

I'm currently watching the series for the 5th time, and it still gives me the same amount of happiness and joy as it did the first time I watched it. Watching Mukoda and company as their simple (or rather less than at times) adventure unfolds is the perfect thing to help one unwind after a long day. And of course, the food is amazing.

It doesn't matter to me how overpowered the main characters are, I honestly find it refreshing. Within the show, creativity abounds, and the art style and the food it creates is magical. The dialogue is enjoyable and well thought out as well.

If Campfire Cooking doesn't get a 2nd season, I along with many others I'm sure will be extremely disappointed. The world needs more shows just like this one, escapism has never been so delicious and light hearted!

If you want a chill (slow), moderately funny, slide of life anime, revolving around cooking, then this Anime is for you
jaam-1057126 April 2023
If you want a chill (slow), moderately funny, slide of life anime, revolving around cooking, then this Anime is for you. I recommend taking notes for this Anime, I didn't know that Japan had so many variety of delicious foods. The truly interesting thing about this Anime is the cooking and the dishes you can research later. It's entertaining and it cheers you up if you are in sa down mood. The action scenes are not very engaging since the main characters are overpowered, but that's expected on a Isekai. The animation is good. The characters are chill, my favorite was the slime (sui), is very cute and useful.

About a dude got isekai'd to another world and charmed everyone by his cooking skills. Super good anime
michuchan10 April 2024
If you're looking for a GOOD, time-worthy anime to watch to relax, THIS is for you. The main character is chill, laidback and a bit coward on the end but is getting better at battles with time.. Anime is basically about a regular salesman got transferred to a world about Magic. Where he makes friend everywhere he goes and finish tasks with his two spirit guides. My rate on this anime is 9.5/10. If you're looking for a GOOD, time-worthy anime to watch to relax, THIS is for you.

My thoughts and Season 2 hopes
hvfvgj9 March 2024
I really Loved the series, Mukohda was such a sweet character and I loved his personality, Fel was funny and Sui calling him Uncle Fel is hilarious to me. And as for Season 2 I really hope. Mukohda can...(I mean this in the best way) kinda grow a bit of a backbone and help kill the monsters because not gonna lie it kinda got annoying just seeing him standing there...even Sui is stronger than him, now for Fel I really hope he actually cares for Mukohda as a person and not only for his cooking because if he only love him for his cooking(his food looks amazing btw) that'll kinda tick me off a little. Sui has nothing to change because Sweet Slime ~w~

Why did you set this world up?
sdjmsfd1 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Gurume comics of this world. It's really.

There's a lot of meat in this work, and what's in it is that there's no difference between real and non-real meat, and there's delicious meat and bad meat, but there's nothing like that in this work.

Only meat food and bread are cooked. You must be eating a lot of calories thanks to that.

There are no original meat and original dishes at all, and you can buy all the seasoning on the Internet and sprinkle it on the meat.

There is no reason for the main character to learn magic.

I eat anything with slime, but my first level is 1.

It's weird.

God is not God, he is just a little boy.

Above all, this work is gurume. It's a cooking animation, but there's no original at all.

The most upsetting thing is the company created by MAPP, which created "The Giant of Advance" and "Chainsaw Man."

Thanks to the animation producer who was in charge of this work, the brand value dropped.

Really great show
ceojonathanmontgomery14 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Hello Fellow Humans,

This show is extremely great. It is about a man who is summoned to a world but with a skill they don't understand. The online shopping skill. Being midevil they have zero clue what online means. However I am surprised the other people summoned didn't understand his skill. So he set off on his own adventure. He soon realized he can buy anything from online and it comes instantly to him. He then meets two powerful creature that becomes his familiar. They only care about food. However all the creatures they kill to eat end up making him a ton of gold. He also sells cheap goods to us like salt and pepper for insane amounts of money. It is a very entertaining show.

My one big complaint is he is very timid and weak. I would be so happy in his shoes and I would not be a weak pathetic person like he is. He has blessings from 4 goddesses, magic, healing potions, two SSS rank familiars. Yet he is the biggest coward. I am also not sure why he didn't buy things like camping gear and cooking things like a smoker and deep fryers. He has unlimited funds and an unlimited item storage vault so he could buy large items like BBQs and restaurant sized deep fryers. It would have made his life easier as he cooks 3 meal a day for himself and his glutenous familiars. Also why did he not buy things like weapons from the store. He could have bought all kinds of tools and weapons as well. He just seems like a simpleton, who is just not very smart.

However the show is amazing and worth watching. I personally would have told the goddesses I can get you daily items but I need a coin pouch that produces unlimited funds so I can buy your offerings. I guarantee you they provide him with something. Also I would remind them that if I die or grow old then they would no longer get offerings. So it would be in their best interest to make me immortal and never age past 24 years old. This would get him Immortality and infinite funds. But that is what a smart person would do and not many humans are that intelligent. Well enjoy the show it is really great and you can watch it with any age kids you have with you as it has zero nudity or violence. Well okay a little violence from monsters w being taken down by the familiars but they don't really show much at all.

An adorable and funny gem that almost slipped by me.
Kristi_Hicks15 March 2024
With this wonderful anime not getting much press, it almost slipped by me.

It didn't even take half an episode before I was hooked. Usually you have to watch a few episodes to get to know the characters and story, but this one was entertaining form the first second on.

The animation was good, but nothing to be wowed by. The writing however was perfect. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

Funny, moderate action, adorable characters and it successfully pulled off the "foodie" genre as well.

It doesn't cross into the "mature audience" zone either, so kids can watch it too.

Don't let this year go by without watching this wonderful. Anime.
