wait, is this one of those where the protagonist is like "the villain" or at least in the sense that he is a douchebag who is greedy and takes everything he wants and doesn't care about anyone else (even his harem).... I kind of want to see that if that's the case.

J-novel club must be ecstatic over how much free advertising they get for their various licenses.

Nope, this is just another generic gary stu isekai. He gets a harem before you can blink and has all the typical cheats.

My bet is that either that or Skeleton Knight, in Another World will get an anime announcement this year.

For a licensing company that had its big website launch back in 10/2016, J-Novel certainly has quite the catalog. That is a good thing!

This series has pretty good covers, doesn't it? Volume 9 is really nice.

Out of curiosity, of the isekai shows that have been announced for 2018 so far, which do people think will be the best: this, The Master of Ragnarok & Blesser of Einherjar, How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord, or That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime?

Also, why do people who hate isekai still read articles about it/comment on it? Just ignore it if you don't like it.

I'm concerned that Seven Arcs will be the one working on this. But then again, Motonaga Keitarou has this weird knack of turning mediocre presentation into shows that are pretty okay.

As far as I've read from what's JNC has worked on, this is pretty fun. It's an isekai series which had parts I really don't like, while also having parts that I really like. The positives outweigh the negative.

I kind of figured that would be the general consensus.

If we're placing bets on which ones might get anime adaptations, of the ones you listed, my money would be on How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom, If It’s for My Daughter, I’d Even Defeat a Demon Lord, and The Magic in this Other World is Too Far Behind!. I'm not basing that on anything other than gut feeling, and I don't know how popular they are in Japan, but based on what I know of the series they just feel like the kind of things that might get anime.

This story MC isn't a dense protagonist, he just have an elder mentality. Of course not an erojiji one. It's the cool dojo shishou one.
