Why You Should Watch I Left My A-Rank Party
If you wanted to take this opportunity to catch up with the anime now that a second season has been officially announced, you can now find it streaming with Crunchyroll. They tease what to expect from I Left My A-Rank Party to Help My Former Students Reach the Dungeon Depths! as such, “Not every party treats you like a hero—especially when you’re a lowly red mage like Yuke. So, after years of constant ridicule by his A-rank party members, he ditches them. Searching for a new party, he reunites with former students Marina, Silk, and Rain, and joins their group. But on a quest to conquer the world’s greatest dungeon, they become entangled in chaos that threatens the world.”
Although you lot at the outside and think it’s going to follow a lot of the same patterns as others, this anime isn’t an isekai, doesn’t have a boring central protagonist, and its various romances do feel earned considering how much its main hero actually gets done. It’s just a refreshing series in an interesting fantasy world, and soon it’s going to be expanding with a whole new season in the future.
