The Beginning After the End
Oshimeter
Synopsis
No king in history could rival Grey in power, wealth, or the fear he commanded. he was the strongest to ever live. And he died completely alone, without a single person he trusted. Then he wakes up as a baby named Arthur Leywin in a world where magic is real, and for the first time, he has parents who actually love him. That contrast is what makes this 12-episode TV series from Studio A-CAT hit differently than your standard isekai. Instead of rushing to power-ups and fight scenes, the early stretch lingers on Arthur growing up, rediscovering what it feels like to have a family, and slowly figuring out this world's magic system with the mind of someone who's already lived an entire life. There's genuine warmth here: watching a guy who ruled through fear and isolation learn to just be a kid again. The world-building takes its time too, layering in details about how magic works rather than dumping everything at once. If you liked the emotional weight and second-chance themes of Mushoku Tensei, this walks a similar path with its own identity. Fans of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime will recognize the "overpowered soul in a new body" setup, but the focus here skews more personal and introspective. It's not trying to be the flashiest thing out there, but it's building something, and the foundation is solid enough to make you want to see where it goes.

The Beginning After the End offers an entertaining, fast-moving spin on the reincarnation fantasy genre. While production limitations and a compressed narrative keep it from fully matching the epic scale of its source material, it remains a fun watch for fans of overpowered protagonists and second-chance progression stories
The nerve of Lucas to lie to the Guild after literally trying to sacrifice his own teammates, and watching Arthur finally snap and throw a sword at his ear is the most satisfying moment this season's delivered. The animation's still rough, but the story's carrying hard right now.
Mucha acción , muy buen ritmo es todo lo que esperaba después de los primeros arcos donde formulaba el contexto de la historia, genial.
Final de temporada con un final abierto, gran ritmo y acción a la espera de lo que ocurra en la siguiente temporada.
El inicio de la aventura, la preparación y despedida. Gran capitulo con altas expectativas para lo que viene.
Gran capitulo, mucha emoción y mejor desarrollo de personajes, mejoro mucho el ritmo de la historia.
Gran desarrollo de personajes, peri bajo el ritmo de la historia, de igual manera muchos detalles que espero cobren valor más adelante.
Episodio de reencuentro , sorpresas y nuevos desafíos con muchas expectativas en este nuevo arco.
Gran desarrollo de la historias y de los personajes, creando contexto para lo que se nos viene. A la espera de una gran aventura.
Por fin la calma para el prota llego, ahora si que si puede continuar su vida y obviamente en el desarrollo de la historia, tengo alta expectativa de esta aventura.
Un desarrollo importante de la historia, personajes que pensé que serian importantes pasaron a ser irrelevantes, espero que no por mucho tiempo, la historia se pone cada vez mejor.
Un capitulo con un desarrollo de la historia muy interesante, se aleja de lo que pensé que era la historia principal y la aventura, esto empieza a tomar forma, veamos que ocurre más adelante.
A rato se siente que la historia se estanca, el ritmo no es constante, pero he de suponer que es la forma elegida en el que el prota destacara en el futuro, quedo expectante en este arco.
Gran episodio quede expectante del siguiente capitulo, muy divertido, mucho desarrollo de personajes y un gran final abierto, genial.
Un inicio fuerte, pero después tiende al clásico estilo isekai espero que solo sea un inicio repetitivo y la historia sea espectacular, les tengo mucha fe
Great season finale. Nice art and solid cliffhanger. Action packed as Arthur gets tested in the exam and a real fight. Hyped for the upcoming season with all the new characters introduced. A must watch!
This episode is a bit slow paced but emotional. Arthur clearly displays his determination through his plans and promises, foreshadowing upcoming adventures. Safe to skip.
Excellent episode! Arthur is rocking hard, displaying his power and determination when confronted by the king and his family. Good pace too. Must watch.
With this new adventure undertaken, Arthur must overcome certain trials to prove his worth as an adventurer. However, there will be others like him, with unprecedented powers and values. This chapter is not an ending but rather the beginning of something greater.
This episode is a bit more emotional, as he not only shares more with his family but also makes decisions regarding his life, in addition to recalling aspects of his past life and how now in this new world he must adapt to certain complications or situations.
