About KONOSUBA -God's blessing on this wonderful world!

Here is what KONOSUBA -God's blessing on this wonderful world! (この素晴らしい世界に祝福を！) is about, retold in plain terms: an adventure, comedy and ecchi anime by Studio DEEN (2016). At its core: Kazuma Satou decides that today is the day to get out of the house for a bit. Since he dies, pointlessly, it's clearly a bad choice.

As things develop, the goddess who greets him in the afterlife, however, offers him a chance to be reborn in a world not unlike that of a video game, and as a bonus she'll even throw in a cool item or ability! Can't possibly be a bad choice, right? Except he arrives with no money at all, dead average skills, and his "bonus" isn't useful at all--since he picked the goddess, Aqua, herself.

As an adventure title, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Voice work is led by Rie Takahashi as Megumin and Sora Amamiya as Aqua. It will appeal most to anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. With 10 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
