Synopsis:
Two friends are transported into another world by the goddess of love and beauty and one of them is transformed into a cute girl with the power to charm any man who sees her.
Impressions:
To borrow an expression from Red Letter Media, this series could be retitled The Not Gays: The Animated Series as the main source of comedy is the fact that our two leads are desperately trying to deny their growing attraction to each other amid all their isekai shenanigans. Toss in some colorful side characters like a chuuni Kirito knockoff and a vain Elf chieftain and you get a pretty solid isekai comedy. While the show doesn't take itself too seriously, there's a fair amount of depth to Jinguuji and Tachibana's relationship that elevates the material above a mere shallow parody. It's definitely worth a watch in my book and if you're in a mood for a bromance that's in danger of losing the B, you may want to give it a shot as well.
