Anime Review: Ore Dake Haireru Kakushi Dungeon

12

Drama Digest

Noir Stardia, despite his title of nobility, is at the bottom of the scale structure. As a result, his fellow nobles mistreat him and demean him as if he were trash. He does, however, have an uncommon yet powerful capacity to interact with the Great Sage, an oracle who can tell Noir the answer to any question. Noir decides to join the Hero Academy after struggling to find a job as a librarian. He understands that he must strengthen himself to enter the institution. The Great Sage suggests he investigate a mysterious dungeon deep within the mountains. Noir finds Olivia Servant, a beautiful but enslaved woman locked beneath the jail. Olivia lavishes a set of potent abilities on Noir that give him near-absolute control over reality. There is, however, a catch: every time Noir attempts to use his powers, his life points drop, putting his life in danger. He must indulge in worldly pleasures such as kissing his childhood friend to recharge his batteries. With his incredible abilities, Noir begins his journey as a student at the Hero Academy, making new friends and assisting them through the terrible scenarios that await them.

The Feel-Good Part

Olivia is a beautiful lady with a large bust and booty who lives in this dungeon. She was an S-class explorer, making her one of the most challenging times. After fighting a monster, she visited the jail but was imprisoned in death chains. When Noir met Olivia by coincidence and chose her to be his master, Olivia decided to pass on her unique abilities to Noir.

The Disappointing Factor

The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter has its ups and downs. However, the show makes us feel bland and uninterested most of the time. The characters are pretty weak for a harem anime, and there isn’t a lot of character development. The plot itself appears to be clumsy and unorganized.

In-Depth Analysis

The illustrations are incredible. It boasts lovely thick shading lines, well-drawn imagery, and above-average production values. Ep1 has 2D hand-animated background scenes, which are uncommon these days due to their enormous difficulty in animating. The plot is structured so that everything necessary in this universe eventually goes his way. Also, for “plot” reasons, he actually ends up kissing his friend a lot and doing other strange things with female characters-and the way he does it is just cringe-worthy.

Star Power

The characters are somewhat generic, but each has a specific role; I’ll just discuss Noir, Emma, Lola, and Luna.

Noir Stardia is your standard generic adventurous hero. He attracts all the females with no effort. Still, I would emphasize that he doesn’t shy away from girls and supports them. He has a solid relationship with Emma, despite the first kissing reasons.

Emma Brightness is the stereotypical childhood friend who grows overly endowed and attracts all the attention.

Lola is a challenging person by nature; she always seeks to get Noir on her side without holding back any barrels. She strives to be the best receptionist in her club.

Luna is the all-too-familiar half-elf who helps anyone by curing their ailments, even putting her own life in danger. A master of healing, she, too, becomes totally in love with Noir, but she provides him with space and doesn’t push him.

Overall Opinion

The show is pleasurable and adventurous. Very entertaining. Fans of role-playing games will especially enjoy it. Overall, a rather ordinary romance anime with nothing really remarkable. If you like this type of anime, you’ll like it too.
