Warning: The following contains minor spoilers for The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash episode 12!

The unexpected twist in The Weakest Tamer leads to a slow but successful narrative climax. Sharing secrets and trusting the right people is a key theme in the series, leading to an unexpected adventure. The show's subtle and relaxed approach rectifies major flaws in adventure anime, highlighting the importance of mundane moments.

It's likely that nobody guessed The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash would turn into an incredible adventure story, but it's actually the best one of Crunchyroll's winter season. Of course, the title was already highly misleading to begin with, since the eponymous weakest tamer, Ivy, actually began her journey because her village was literally hunting her down to kill her for being weak, but, its first season still delivered.

This twist is especially shocking, since the...

The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash innovates isekai by creating an unseen character to represent the protagonist's past life. The anime primarily focuses on Ivy's conversations with her memories and a slime monster, making it one of the quietest isekai series. The series uses traditional flashbacks for Ivy's new life while relying on unconventional communication to represent her former life, adding another layer to its innovation.

A new Isekai series on Crunchyroll called The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash innovates how the genre normally explores the protagonist's past life by essentially creating anunseen character. While some isekai anime perplexingly ignore where the hero comes from, there are plenty that give their own unique spin on this specific trope to differentiate themselves from the competition.

In The Weakest Tamer, the memories of protagonist Ivy's former life are represented by dinging sounds that...

Slimes. In recent years, it feels like these gelatinous critters have seeped through the fantasy genre as more than just novice foes, but as cute companions, little helpers and leaders of free nations as well, appearing in great quantity and quality. I personally prefer the term “welcoming party” over “early-game mob,” since they often set the scene for a whole new world to both the viewer and characters… before being immediately sidelined. Frankly, slimes deserve better. Their cuddly, bubbly disposition should be the main squeeze and not just a side piece, and fortunately, several anime know how to aim a spotlight appropriately. So, let’s find out just how big the party gets in these slime-centric adventures — and how a charming new addition to the subgenre, The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash , stacks up next to its contemporaries. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime...
