Enjoyed the anime until the last couple of episodes where they managed to recreate a disastrous GOT level bad ending.
Very much worth the watch thou.

> Recommendation : ❌

This is the second Chinese-language anime I've watched after Scissor Seven, and it's clearly not as good. I couldn't get attached to the characters and the music didn't captivate me either. The plot, especially towards the end of the season, is ok.

Watch it only if you have nothing better to do.

Title: "The Daily Life of the Immortal King": A Misfired Magical Spell

Essential, Hook, and Thesis:

Prepare for a trip down the alley of disappointment, otaku comrades. "The Daily Life of the Immortal King", much like an undercooked bowl of ramen, falls dismally short of our well-seasoned expectations. With a premise that could have been as captivating as the wizarding world of Fairy Tail, it ends up feeling more like a defective pokeball – failing to capture anything at all.

Basic Plot Summary:

"The Daily Life of the Immortal King" follows the tale of Wang Ling, an extraordinarily powerful cultivator striving for a low-key life in an overly dramatic, supernatural world. Picture Saitama from "One Punch Man", minus the wit and charm, and you get the idea. But instead of one punch, we get one big yawn.

Praise and Critique:

The show, much like a shape-shifting ditto, seems promising at first glance. The premise of an overpowered protagonist desiring normalcy could have led to intriguing plot developments, as brilliantly displayed in "Mob Psycho 100". But alas, it's like being handed a counterfeit Millennium Puzzle: it just doesn't add up.

The character of Wang Ling, designed to be as enigmatic as L from "Death Note", comes off as about as thrilling as a Magikarp splash attack. While his nonchalant attitude towards his remarkable abilities is initially amusing, it soon turns into a monotonous parade of missed comedic opportunities.

Criticism, Evaluation, and Comparison:

Unfortunately, "The Daily Life of the Immortal King" serves as a prime example of how not to handle an overpowered protagonist. The show stumbles around like a freshly caught Caterpie, failing to develop a coherent narrative. In comparison, series like "One Punch Man" or "The Disastrous Life of Saiki K." manage to balance humor, action, and plot progression with a similar character setup.

The Actors:

The voice actors attempt to inject life into the series, but they're as powerless as Team Rocket against Pikachu. Their performances are akin to Ash Ketchum trying to win a Pokémon League without a fully evolved Pokémon: commendable effort, but ultimately not enough.

Conclusion:

To wrap up, "The Daily Life of the Immortal King" feels like an anime filler arc that overstays its welcome. It's an unfulfilling trek through an underdeveloped world with an underwhelming protagonist. And much like a disgruntled Jigglypuff whose audience fell asleep, we're left feeling exasperated. So, fellow otaku, heed this advice: You're better off re-watching an old favorite or exploring new realms, because the daily life of this particular immortal king is as entertaining as watching Snorlax's sleep marathon.

This was my first time watching a Chinese anime, and honestly… not a great start. It follows the usual generic anime recipe, but somehow manages to be even more forgettable than average.

The protagonist? Absolutely lifeless. No personality, no emotion, no explanation. Just a blank face floating through scenes like he’s allergic to being interesting. It’s honestly impressive how unlikable he is. I couldn’t care less about him, and the show never gives you a reason to try.

The background music? Horrible. Every transition is cursed with these painfully bad, out-of-place tunes that made me wish for silence.

Some side characters show a glimpse of personality here and there, but they’re not enough to save the show. You might think, “Oh, maybe this one’s cool”—but blink, and they’re gone, back to being shallow and useless.
