Coming in late with a review:
Sasaki to Pii-chan (Sasaki and Peeps)
Source: LN.
Genres: Adventure, comedy, fantasy, (isekai).
Studio: SILVER LINK.
(Known for Masamune-kun's Revenge, Non Non Biyori, and The Misfit of Demon King Academy making this on their own but SILVER LINK being like J.P. Staff pumping out so many anime but difference is one mainly does it all alone while SILVER LINK collabs with other studios.)

Personal thoughts:
First out of 2 isekai this seasonal lineup we have that puts so many ideas out of the blue and cramped them in to make one big franchise.
Where's Sasaki and Peeps has a steady pace while The Outwardly Ability isekai is just too fast pace and just kills off every character the MC comes into contact with intent to kill with just gag humor crammed in.
About this series it's a back and fourth from another world (fantasy world) which has been done before but the major difference we have a normal character and mundane about him that doesn't become OP with what ever power while the dynamic is interacting a incarnated sage becoming a talking bird as a pet. (Nice idea πŸ‘)

And with arrange of many characters but many of the female characters only got so much screen time and barely info to backstory to them other being there in the moment. My biggest grip is in the fantasy world some arcs seems rushed and situation seems resolved that should have been taken longer for the story to be brought out.

The animation was okay but the outro CGI was urg -____- The OP was nothing special but with a bopping soundtrack.

Animation is okay but not much fancy since SILLVER LINK only pust something big out when it's a big popular franchise.

Love the ideas this has but the like everyone mention had promise but bad execution. And that cliffhanger WTF!!! (OxO) Still pretty nice but only a mere 7/10.

wwlaos • 1 month ago

It's so unfocused with 47 different plots all going on and even Pii-chan never really gets the chance to be as cute as he should be. I love the OP song and the character design, but the show itself... I struggle to even give it a 5/10. :/

ζ‚²γ—γ„ηŠ¬ • 1 month ago

Actually we still don't know their reasons. So maybe they were not really the ones to really start the conflict in the first place.

Deus The Great • 1 month ago

I can take them all alone.

Ohms Nuttachai • 1 month ago

Please don't feed meat to non-sage-reincarnated Java sparrow.
Thanks. I will remember this when I find a sage-reincarnated Java sparrow next time.

Anime & Rutabagas • 1 month ago

*Finds Java sparrow*

*Tries to feed meat to it*

*Sad cuz it didn't send me to another world* lol

Also
*Sad cuz it died, things didn't go the way of expectation* XD

norigami • 1 month ago

Good news, at least the sparrow got sent to another world!

Azureink • 1 month ago

It will be a Java-sparrow reincarnated into a sage in the other world.

norigami • 1 month ago

And if the meat you fed him was raw pig liver, then he will have a yethma companion in the other world!

Sip Fu • 1 month ago

It probably wouldn't die. Java sparrows have been known to eat small frogs and lizards.

Deus The Great • 1 month ago

At least I learned something useful from this series.

Horny lolis are peak and you can't change my mind

Oviej • 1 month ago

I could imagine his chiseled, ripped body

... and then there is his ugly faces he makes.

Azureink • 1 month ago

I mean, can we give him the win last time as well?

He would be 2 and 0.

Archie Andrew's 1000 • 1 month ago

For now

Seems like neighbourhood loli got attacked by demon.

Nan Demo K(Nai)ves • 1 month ago

Nah, I think she got attacked by her mother's boyfriend and the demon saved her.

Never thought about it but you got a good point.

Deus The Great • 1 month ago

Seem like the demon saved her from the man who was about to pound her. At least her v-card is saved for Sasaki.

wwlaos • 1 month ago

All the lolis be waiting for Sasaki to punch their v-cards. :/

Kino • 1 month ago

We need more loli for Sasaki so we can have 50 hour uncensored loli segs

Deus The Great • 1 month ago

Bet.

Whoever • 1 month ago

Do not feed meat to Java sparrows that aren't reincarnations of starsages! :P

Judgment526 • 1 month ago

Nice…not that anyone would ever do that, right? πŸ˜…

Oviej • 1 month ago

Well, about that ...

Ohms Nuttachai • 1 month ago

So considerate. Thanks for the warning lol

Anime & Rutabagas • 1 month ago

Noted lol

Anime & Rutabagas • 1 month ago

Really like the premise of this but after a while it started to get a bit bland..

Still enjoyed it tho and will miss the all mighty Pii-chan T^T

Also this series had one of the most cursed looking ED's lol

FoxbytheSea • 1 month ago

Totally agree with u.... I somehow liked the series and disliked it at the same time, many things made no sense whatsoever, yet somewhat intricate with so many factions in so many directions make those plot holes disappear quick.
I will mis Futari Shizuka, loved her Seiyuu.
ANd yes the ending was the worst ever forever ever the worst.... ugh

Ohms Nuttachai • 1 month ago

Sasaki And Peeps

For the good part, the concept of a middle-aged guy turned got Isekai power from the pet bird he bought was quite interesting. I thought it was going to be like another power fantasy where an ordinary turned OP and went Isekai but then here came a twist where there are already superhumans in the real world. I really like the idea of using both worlds to tell both sides of the story and not relegate the real world to only a place where the MC can flex his powers.

Too bad the show never used that to its potential and ended up half-baked everything. First, it showed that some supervillains abuse their powers for their good. That's cool and all but we barely know about them except "they exist and they do bad things" and Sasaki just happened to end up on the good guy side. The Isekai side is a bit better since there is some story to tell but they came in bits and pieces since the show spends half of the time in the real world. So, when you felt like we already had some interesting story on Isekai, it's already ended and the story shifted the focus to the real world. At least if they can make both sides more interconnected, it should be more interesting.

But that's still not as bad as the character departments. The show introduced tons of interesting side characters but none of them got flesh out. First, they introduced Hoshizaki who seems to be an important support character. But the most interesting development from her is when she reveals that she's underage. Then there's Elsa who's a real princess from another world but she serves no other purpose than being a damsel in distress. Shizuka got the most attention since she mainly monopolized the final arc but that's all she did.

However, none of the characters I mentioned got any worse treatment than the Next Door Girl. I'm not an LN reader but even I can pretty much guess that she has an interesting (and disturbing) backstory to tell. And what the show managed to do with her? Nothing. She was the first to be introduced and the first to be forgotten. She just sat there waiting for Sasaki to come home and we never got any explanation why. She was just there.

The production is average Silver Link quality - not bad and nothing to talk about also. The battle scenes are slow-paced with a weird upbeat song playing in the background. Talking about song, MADKID has never been my favorite band and they still can't change my mind. I feel like if I hear one of their songs, I already hear them all. They are that repetitive. I can't remember anything about the ED except some creepy CGIs.

This might be one of the most disappointing shows of this season. It started very interesting but ended up nowhere. I read many LN fans trashing this adaptation and I understand why. If this is what the director had in mind when he thought "Read the LN for a more complete experience", then it doesn't work; at least not for me. It's a 5.5/10 show overall.

Nerdcatlady • 1 month ago

It started promising by showing that there are already superhumans in the real world and this duo of the reincarnated sage bird and the middle aged man seemed unique and interesting. I also liked the animation and artstyle and I was expecting more of this show but I agree with you in the end, it was somehow mediocre, boring and disappointing. It's exactly as you said it. It ended up half-baked in everything and especially with the introductions of the rest characters that had potential but unfortunately no development. So it's a generous 6/10 from me too and I don't know if I would watch another season, if it comes out.

Ohms Nuttachai • 1 month ago

The news just came in and season 2 is confirmed. I'm conflicted about whether I should continue also lol

I'm telling you this is not the longest. The longest is probably the one from 86 anime.
