Level 1 dakedo Unique Skill de Saikyou desu

As a corporate slave, Ryouta Satou experiences the worst forms of stress, overwork, and loneliness. Even after he is hospitalized due to exhaustion, his days of toil only become worse. Soon enough, the sheer fatigue catches up to him and kills him in his sleep. However, Ryouta is given a second chance at life: he wakes up in another world as a slime drop—much to the surprise of Emily Brown, the petite blonde girl who defeated said slime.

Acquainting himself with the rules of this RPG-like world, Ryouta finds out that he will never grow past level 1. However, he also discovers that one of his skills is at the maximum level: the skill which determines the rarity of monster drops. This allows him to acquire not only items of the best quality, but also some that are unheard of.

Ryouta sets out to make the most of his ability—meeting new friends, grinding through dungeons, and acquiring unique items along the way. Reveling in his new life seems to be the long-awaited and much-deserved reward for all the tribulations he had suffered.

Is it generic isekai plot? You betcha. You knew that by the title itself, right? But more than action, it's more of the feel-good trope.

For the action adventure part, mc is stuck on level 1 but has crazy drop rate for items so obviously, he's only weak for a short time.

You focus more on the fuzzy feelings you get from the relationship between him and emily.

People complain about him getting guns in a fantasy world but I personally like the progression it took with upgrading bullets, combining bullets, etc.

The art is not bad. Pretty generic but has its own charm.

All in all, I cant really ... defend why I liked it but i really did feel warm and smiley watching it.

Mixed Feelings

MY UNIQUE SKILL MAKES ME OP EVEN AT LEVEL 1—A GUIDE ON HOW TO TURN OFF YOUR BRAIN
Welcome to the isekai assembly line. I am now convinced that even AI in standby mode could generate a more innovative narrative than this. We are looking at the quintessential Harem-Isekai setup:
A protagonist whose superpower isn't talent but a suit of armor made entirely of “plot armor.” The moment the script invents a problem, it instantly hands him the solution on a silver platter. Naturally, he has absolutely no clue about his new surroundings. So it's the standard protocol to facilitate lazy exposition because showing is apparently ... too hard for the writers.

Logic Holes Deep Enough to Bury the Franchise
The anime stumbles over its own world-building with remarkable incompetence. Let’s look at the most glaring example of lazy writing: the protagonist is the only one who gets S-tier loot. He uses this loot to spawn monsters, which then drop an even better version of the item. He essentially discovers an “Infinite Loot Glitch.” Does he repeat this loop into infinity to achieve godhood? No. It remains a mystery why he ignores this, likely because the author didn't think that far ahead or simply didn't think at all.
It gets even more absurd with the weaponry. The show explicitly establishes that the protagonist is physically stronger when using primitive weapons. The logical conclusion? Use them. The anime’s conclusion? “Give him guns.” Why? Because the creators operate on the insulting assumption that the lobotomized viewer will simply think, “Oh wow, girls and shiny guns in an Isekai! Best anime ever.” It abandons its internal logic for the sake of a cool visual that isn't even cool.

The “Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V” Character Cast
To me, this work is nothing more than a collection of characterless cardboard cutouts that shamelessly steal from superior shows like Danmachi or Konosuba, etc.
The Protagonist? His drop-rate luck is just a cheap knock-off of Kazuma, minus the personality and the spine.
Celeste? She is essentially a bad copy of Megumin, just “bigger” and devoid of any actual charm.
The other characters are equally hollow templates with zero development. The only thing saving this train wreck from total disaster is a few isolated jokes, like the Bunny Girl intro. But let's be honest: that bar is on the floor.

The Verdict:
Score: 5.5 -> 6
6/10
It is not aggressively terrible, but its mediocrity is almost insulting. It’s not worth getting angry over; it is simply “Fast Food Anime.” It fills the time, offers zero nutritional value, and leaves you forgetting what you watched five minutes later. Just another generic stencil thrown onto the trash heap of anime history.

This show is ironically funny in unhinged way
Makes me laught every episode, even theres no comedy genre there. The shitty ass quality, like "what is power scale?", poor world building, and what our MC-with-no-personality and that unhinged-blue-rabbit doing makes it comedic. The concept totally absurd, how the hell everything are drop items from dungeon. it leads to world with no technology and culture, but have everything from "our real life" technologies & cultures

I watch this absolute garbage in HD quality makes it funnier. I love the ironi <3

I give it 1/10 for the whole shitty thing, but i'll give +1 score for the comedic and ... ironic. I love the unintended comedy, but i'll not recommend this show for you to watch
