KonoSuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World!
この素晴らしい世界に祝福を! (Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!)
Kazuma Satō is a hikikomori (shut-in) a die-hard fan of games, anime, and manga. A traffic accident brings his disappointingly brief life to an end, or it should have, but he wakes up and sees a beautiful girl who introduces herself as a goddess. She asks him if he'd like to go to another world but he can only bring one thing with him. Kazumi chooses to bring the goddess. With that, he is transported to another world and his great adventure subjugating the demon king begins, but first the hard work of finding food, clothing, and shelter begins. Kazuma wants to live in peace, but the goddess raises one problem after another, and then the demon king's army has its eyes set on him.

KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on this Wonderful World! (also just known as Kunosuba) is a wacky comedy. You may even have seen memes of it without realizing what it is. Despite reusing the same jokes over and over, it doesn’t get old due to the clever writing. This is how comedy should be handled, unlike some shows that just beat the same joke to death. This is also a fast pace dialog driven comedy, so you may need to rewind some scenes as many characters may talk over each other.
The animation is also incredibly good and the colors are vibrant. It never gets old watching all those explosions. Don’t be fool by the generic design style.
The music of Konosuba is catchy and fun. I love almost every opening and closing songs.
The characters are wonderfully written and lovable, in their dysfunctional way.
I highly recommend Konosuba. Though this anime is binge-worthy, it may be too much comedy to take it all in at once. Fast pace shows tend to drain me a bit, so watch a few episodes at a time. This anime contains graphic violence, crude comedy, and suggestive themes/dialogs.
