Tsuyoshi Fujitaka’s manga, My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered, No One in This Other World Stands a Chance Against Me!, will finally make its anime debut. Okuruto Noboru adapted the series into an anime, and it will soon hit the small screens. And to give fans a glimpse of it, the anime has dropped its first trailer, showing Takato Yogiri’s incredible power.
The preview begins with Chichika Dannoura narrating their travel on a bus while on their way to their school retreat. But after they pass through a tunnel, they surprisingly end up on an unknown Greenland. A mage named Shion then appears and summons everyone to be sage candidates. Yazaki then intervenes and tells everyone to stay. As a dragon is about to blow fire at them, Yogiri wakes up and unleashes his incredible power, which sees the beast die before it can even land its attack.
Chichika gets mad, but Yogiri tries to explain that there’s no way she can understand his power. He can kill two people instantly. Dannoura Mokomoko, Chichika’s ancestor and guardian spirit, then appears and says, “This world is strange. It’s too easy to die.” But she remains hiding, as she might be erased if she shows herself. From there, a montage of scenes is revealed, introducing the other characters, like Hanakawa Daimon, an otaku, Hiroki Tachibana, a handsome narcissist, and Sage Rain, one of the wise men.

What is My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered about?
My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered follows the story of Yogiri as he and her classmates are summoned to another world by a woman named Shion, who calls herself a sage during a school trip. Shion then gives them special abilities called “gifts” and tells them to complete a test to become the next sages.
As everyone fears for their lives, they all obey—except Yogiri and Chihcika. The two don’t get abilities like others and are left behind as decoys in the grassland, where a dragon is about to come. As everyone gets killed by the dragon, Yogiri effortlessly slays the beast, and as it turns out, he gets the Instant Death Cheat ability.
You can check the synopsis below:
Yogiri Takatou's school bus was summoned to another world by a Sage who shows just how horrible she and the world are by killing the adults for petty reasons and telling the students they are to be trained as sages to fight demons. She only takes the gifted ones, leaving the rest to die. Yogiri looks for a way back with his classmate Tomochika Dannora, but his apathy to the oddity unnerved Tomochika. In truth, Yogiri is not a normal kid—he can kill anything he wishes just by willing it.
My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered is scheduled for release in January 2024. Surely, a lot of isekai anime fans will look out for this.
