Okay, let’s cut to the chase—Episode 7 of I Saved Myself with a Potion! Life in Another World did NOT go the way I thought it would. One minute I’m watching Kaede sell her millionth potion (seriously, does this town have an endless supply of injured people?), and the next—boom—slavery is dropped into the plot like it’s no big deal. Wait, hold up?
First, quick refresh: Kaede’s the 17-year-old who got sucked into another world with her backpack and a magic book that lets her make potions by just saying “create” (if only my homework was that easy). This episode, she meets Cardeno—a girl who’s… a slave. And the worst part? Everyone around Kaede acts like it’s totally normal. Fans on MyAnimeList were losing it too: one comment said, “I didn’t expect such a light-hearted show to suddenly introduce slavery. Slavery that everyone around her is totally chill with.” Exactly! When that line about slavery being “a stricter form of employment” popped up? I cringed so hard I almost dropped my snack. Yikes, show—who thought that was a good line?
But let’s talk about the rest. The animation style? Some people say it’s more like a motion comic than a real anime. Like, “you’re watching someone play a visual novel” (as one fan put it). Is that bad? If you’re into flashy fight scenes, maybe—but if you care about the story, it’s okay. Another fan even said the plot’s better than most fantasy shows this season, which I get. Kaede’s potion-making chaos is low-key addictive.
And don’t get me started on the potion economy. A fan joked, “The demand for potions in this town must be absurdly high if she can dump hundreds into the local economy without oversaturating it.” Truth! Does every person in this world trip over their own feet every five minutes? Or are they just chugging healing potions for fun? It’s silly, but it makes me laugh.
Also—where’s that tall cat woman from the OP? Seven episodes in and no sign of her. Fans are asking the same thing. Is she hiding in the woods? Is she gonna show up next episode to save the day? Fingers crossed.
Another thing: Kaede’s bodyguard needs a better weapon. Like, a spear or something? One fan pointed out, “Arm her bodyguard so she can effectively guard her? That would be silly.” Exactly! How’s she supposed to protect Kaede with whatever she’s got now?
But back to the slavery twist. Rei (the elf lady) had this super dark look when Cardeno spoke up. Fans were speculating—was she reminding Cardeno she’s a slave? Or does Rei have something way more messed up going on? Either way, it added a tense moment that I didn’t see coming from this otherwise chill show.
Overall, Episode 7 was a mixed bag. The slavery twist felt out of place (and a little problematic), but it made me curious about what happens next. Will Kaede stand up for Cardeno? Is Rei hiding a secret? Even with the weird animation and that cringey line, I’m still gonna tune in next week. It’s like a guilty pleasure—you know it’s not perfect, but you can’t look away.
If you’re into isekai with a side of unexpected drama (and a lot of potion-making), give this episode a watch. Just be prepared to roll your eyes at that one line. And let’s hope the tall cat lady shows up soon—we need her!
(Note: I skipped the weird bath scene comment from fans to keep this review appropriate for under 20s!)
