There's an anime I recently watched (and enjoyed immensely) where a sociopath salaryman in modern Japan is shoved in front of a train by someone he fired earlier. Time freezes and God speaks to him, telling him that his indifference to the suffering of others has made him a bad person. The salaryman denies that he is God, and responds that people only need and like God because they live bad lives and need someone to help them. People with comfortable lives (like him) don't need God. God gives a very smug "Oh?" and the salaryman realizes he has made a mistake. He told God exactly what to do to punish him the most severely and force him to accept and praise God routinely in his new world where God is his only salvation from oblivion.
This dumb woman invited Hell into her life and we've been suffering the consequences ever since.
Tanya lol, pretty decent anime.
We getting any new Tanya anime, ever?
i read that a second season is confimed. the light novels though have become increasingly boring imo.
Yea I read that too, about a year and a half ago. Oh, Japan!
Sorry to hear that about the LN. Hopefully they can spice it up for the anime, if it gets that far!
That premise kind of falls apart when the world he's reincarnated to has magic and he's a prodigy with it. The lesson would have been a lot harsher if he was born in non-Russia instead of not-Germany. That way even if he was still born with magical aptitude, he'd have been brutally persecuted for it instead of being made a respected officer in the military.
I think it's generally stable when the magic doesn't work without Tanya being forced to recite the prayers each time. Tanya must submit to the will of God, or else perish. Each time she thinks she's escaped the hell of war, something shifts, someone makes an arbitrary decision, and she's thrown right back into having to pray.
He says the words, but he's filled with spiteful resentment each time. Despite his hubris he's still granted the power to escape danger. Compare to Goblin Slayer where the Priestess' prayers sometimes go unanswered and the spell fizzles because her faith wanes and her actions go against what her goddess desires.
But then he'd just die instead of constantly fumbling into more responsibility when trying to get away from the front lines. Being a godless party member would be eady enough.
Assuming he'd have been able to become a party member. Also he really hates communism, so even if he could have wormed his way into the party it would have been more soul crushing than being given more and more responsibilities in the military.
