had no idea with the anime adaption, but as long as they keep the artstyle is will be better than 95% of the isekai trash we get every season, its nice to just have a fantasy world thats its own with characters that from there (and yes I realise the farming family are from our world and pass over into the land of the gods, but their from the time myths and legends like these where seen as a reality for many)

enjoyed my time with it, it reminds me Dave the Diver is set up in many ways, in that you have the action stages which are side scrolling and then the part where you manage the farm with minigames.

Very respectable, and based on the numbers on their website, it looks like it's consistently selling over the years.

Cool, didn't know that!

PA Works are lowkey one of my fave studio's, despite them not always getting the same kind of attention other studio's get. Aquatope on White Sand, Hanasaku Iroha, Maquia and Sakura Quest are all among my personal favorites as they hit really personal notes for me, and I also really liked Iroduku: the World in Colors and a few others. Curious what they'll make of this!
