It’s undeniable that Makoto and his subordinates are overpowered. They can probably even conquer their world if they put their mind to it. Luckily, Makoto isn’t interested in that. His vast amount of power consequently means big and powerful moves. Makoto can whip lethal techniques without breaking a sweat. Not just Makoto, even Tomore, Mio, and even some of the worthy villains have their own ultimate techniques. To appreciate all these, the animation can’t be subpar. Tsukimichi -Moonlit Fantasy-’s animation doesn’t disappoint.

All the action scenes in Tsukimichi -Moonlit Fantasy- are animated well. The actions are crisp, and the techniques are vibrant and cool. The animation, however, doesn’t just shine during fights. The studio has superbly animated the crucial moments, our favorite being Makoto’s fight with the culprit of killing Tomoe’s fragment. The scene when Makoto avenges Tomoe’s fragment showcases how great Tsukimichi -Moonlit Fantasy-’s animation is. The blood, the action sequence, and Makoto’s emotions are clearly and perfectly portrayed.

Due to some circumstances, Makoto is strong physically and magically. That is true even if we remove his subordinates from the equation. Even so, that doesn’t mean that Makoto has it easy. As powerful as he is, he is still faced with a lot of problems. With the help of Tomoe, Mio, and the others, he does manage to get by. However, Makoto still has to work hard. This is the primary reason why this anime rarely has any dead air. One problem pops up just as another one is solved. The more problems arise, the more interesting the anime becomes. Unfortunately, the anime ended just as the story is just getting serious. Nonetheless, that just makes us more excited for the second season to come!

What most overpowered characters lack in other anime is character development. Because they possess unparalleled might, they plow through any problem they face. That lack of character development results in a repetitive and boring series. On the contrary, anime like That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime and The Rising of the Shield Hero, which have complex main characters, tend to be more exciting. Similarly, Makoto isn’t just a one-track mind human. He is imperfect, despite how strong he is. He might be naive at first, but he eventually proves that he doesn’t view the world as black and white. Makoto’s character grows every time he overcomes a major problem, giving his character more depth. To top it all, he somehow manages to remain pure of heart despite all the suffering and betrayal he’s been through.
