As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I'll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World

Watched on: 28-29 March 2025

This is truly a departure from the other run-of-the-mill isekai anime--where the protagonist becomes overpowered with some ridiculous form of magic or strength. Here, the MC is not endowed with exceptional power, strength, or magic; rather, his single and only power is the ability to "appraise" one another person's talent.

(Of course, do not worry, as it is not a spoiler since this gets revealed right at Episode 1.)

The narrative instills the action of how the MC deploys his subtle skill into a bright and strategic move, surviving in a world full of political friction and war. Instead of brute force, he proves himself worthy with intelligence, planning, and talent scouting.

What makes it unique is the fresh way that it takes - this is not your traditionally overpowered hero story, but something more tactical growth and leadership oriented.

Should You Watch It?

For me, it's a once-off watch for anyone who loves a little brain over brawn in their isekaiex. It definitely doesn't have a completed storyline, but there are promising markers suggesting it'll actually be a little different.

I give this a solid 7/10--a try well worth taking, especially for someone who wants something a little different in the isekai.

This is completely not like any isekai anime. Unlike any other isekai anime where the MC is granted some ridiculous shrouded overpowered ability, here, he doesn't even have that. The MC does not have an insane power, strength, or magic--in fact, he has a single power: the power of "appraising" other people's talents.

(And don't worry. It's not a spoiler as it is revealed within Episode 1.)

The story follows how he employs this subtle skill in surviving a world full of political tensions and war, all smartly. He proves himself worthy, not by brute strength, but through strategy, intelligence, and scouting for talents.

What makes it special is the whole new aspect, as it does not have a typical overpowered hero story, but tactical growth and inspiration into leadership.

Should You Watch It?

One such great one-time watch is for the brain over brawn in their isekai. The story is still unraveling, promising earlier promising markers for something a little different in the telling.

I'd grade this 7/10--worth trying for sure, especially if you're looking for something different in isekai.
