For what it's worth, the first episode of season 2 was my least favorite so far. So much so that I didn't even bother making a discussion thread for it. Episodes 2-3 cover story that was skipped in season 1 and will become important as the story continues, so they go pretty quickly through some action, and the adaptation has been better since. You can safely skip the first episode sadly, it feels more like a recap to remind people about these characters and a waste of time than actual story progression.

I think this series gets a bit of a bad rap for being generic or copying other isekai. However, many of the series it gets accused of copying (Slime is what I see most often), were actually published later and were building on genre conventions in part established by Tsukimichi. It is a bit unfortunate that many of the other series within the genre got anime adaptations much before Tsukimichi, because now it can feel derivative of other works that chronologically were published later.
