Crunchyroll’s New Monster Isekai Succeeds By Combining Two Winning Formulas

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Warning: Spoilers for Re:Monster episode 1The debut episode of the new Isekai series Re:Monster on Crunchyroll likely appeals to many viewers for a slew of reasons, but it specifically brings together two major formulas from other Crunchyroll series that made each of these successful: The Unwanted Undead Adventurer and Berserk of Gluttony.

Meanwhile, Berserk of Gluttony introduced the power of being able to "devour" the abilities of those slain by the user to its protagonist, who was never transported to another world or even reincarnated into someone else. Goblins can't naturally perform such a feat, thus making Gobrou an overpowered protagonist by comparison, just like his counterparts from the genre.

Re:Monster Explores Just How Close Humans Are to Monsters Oddly enough, Re:Monster is very much like The Unwanted Undead Adventurer in how it deconstructs the relationship between man and monster. Similar to how Rentt is eventually regarded as being the most human he has ever been after transforming into what is essentially the antithesis of humanity, Kanata finds purpose, friends, and family after being reincarnated as the most sterotypical fantasy monster, a goblin.
