Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World: Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, Vol. 1 (light novel)

No story has grabbed me as completely as this one. I will say that it certainly isn't for everyone - you have to be able to put up with an annoying protagonist, which is a tall order when most of what you see is heavily colored through his perceptions. But if you can understand that the protagonist is cringy by design, and are able to stick with the story, you'll find a rich world full of fleshed-out characters with their own views and goals, and a story of personal growth unlike any I know.

This is one of the most interesting and entertaining stories I've ever read. The way Subaru's power is used is fantastic. Even though the world that Subaru is thrown into may be a very cliché one, Subaru himself is a completely different type of character than we've ever seen. The addition of a completely new type of character into the usual fantasy world type setting makes this unique in its own way. I've watched the anime as well and though it may have poorly portrayed characters such as Emilia in comparison to the light novels, it was still extremely entertaining. I hope that Nagatsuki-sensei's dream comes true of getting a full anime adaptation of this wonderful story. If you're looking for a recommendation, then you are definitely getting one from me.

Though I haven't read any of the books, I have watched the anime, and all I can really say is it's amazing. There is no other series like it. I highly recommend you watch/read it
