    1. It turns out this wasn’t Making Magic. I am aware that this case of mistaken identity is entirely on me, but that doesn’t change that my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
    2. Is the setup really that he triggered his magic by feeling the same thing for his sister as two animals in heat?
    3. I’m intrigued though. I’ve never seen a isekai story being told from an outsider POV. Between this and the slow pace it’s enough for me to give it at the very least some more episodes.

    Ah yes, my favorite isekai, “That Time I Unlocked Magic Powers By Flirting With My Sister”. In all seriousness, though, I did find it interesting that they chose to tell an isekai story from someone else’s POV - it felt refreshing and gave the anime a bit of a head start in a very crowded field. However, the plot seems pretty bland and this episode was overwhelmingly devoted to setting up an incestuous ship, so uh, that goodwill only goes so far. I give the premiere a 2/5.
