Synopsis

Having reached the pinnacle of human potential, Varvatos was so powerful that the rest of humankind began calling him the Demon Lord, both fearing and respecting his overwhelming influence. As a result, he felt alienated from his fellow humans, leading him to desire true companionship—an equal he could call a friend. Hoping his fate will change in his next life, Varvatos decides to start anew and reincarnates three thousand years later as Ard Meteor, the son of a seemingly ordinary couple in a rural town. Unfortunately, he realizes that even after weakening himself, his strength still overshadows everyone in this era. Moreover, his lack of social skills bars him from achieving his goal of making friends. But worst of all, the repercussions of suddenly abandoning his former position have begun to bite him back in some of the most unimaginable ways possible. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Just another tryhard wannabe anos voldigoat Ill try to not waste anybody's time and tell you straight up why you shouldnt watch this He looks like kiritio clone Is scared of girls Takes 2 episodes to gather harem despite being scared of girls His only real adversary is himself and yep they decided to roll with that Every single woman in this anime is oversexualized for no reason He trains his harem and it tirns out they never use said training in the later episodes anyway :3 and act as damsel in distressAny character which isnt ard or ard clone is one shot kill Villian or supposed mastermind acts like a dumbass and gets instakilled The main character has zero personality yet we supposed to relate to him because he is guilt ridden xD Music is really really bad , op just blasts your eardrums off Animation is bad as well no effort is put in any fight scene Dont waste your time on this , just like I didn't bother writing a proper review this show doesn't even deserve that much.

I came across several reviews of this anime claiming that it contradicts itself, but that’s simply not true. I’d like to clear up the misunderstanding some viewers had regarding the plot. This review may contain spoilers, and I’ll also discuss Ard Meteor's goal and thoughts throughout the anime, as these seem to be the main points of confusion for many. Many people wrote in their reviews that Ard's goal contradicts itself. The misconception seems to be that his goal was simply to live a low-profile life, free from reputation, privileges, prestige, and fame. However, his main goal wasn’t to turn his back on his past. Whathe truly wanted was something he had never experienced, something that everyone around him had: a true friend. The fame and status he accumulated over the years made it difficult for him to make genuine connections. His reincarnation was the key to shedding these burdens, allowing him to pursue friendships without these labels getting in the way. There’s another detail people might have missed, and it’s a key part of the anime that could easily cause confusion. It’s stated multiple times throughout the series: after Ard finally makes friends, he discovers the true value of friendship. He becomes willing to expose his true identity if it means protecting those friends, which he comes to view as his most valuable treasure. These two points can be confusing for some viewers. As I’ve seen in various reviews, Ard’s main goal was misunderstood. People focused on his desire for a low-profile life, but missed the deeper goal of making friends. After that, the second part—him defending his friends—may seem contradictory to the idea of living a low-profile life. Personally, I don’t understand how people missed these details. Some of the reviewers who got confused didn’t even finish all 12 episodes, yet they’ve watched over 5000 episodes of anime and still felt confident enough to write a review. I believe if they had just invested a little more effort into paying attention to the anime’s themes, they wouldn’t have felt so dissatisfied and quick to drop it. I really enjoyed this anime.
