Ore wa Seikan Kokka no Akutoku Ryoushu [Season 1 Episode 2]

“Ore wa Seikan Kokka no Akutoku Ryoushu!” – Episode 2 Review: Karma, Chaos, and a Custom Maid

If you’re into isekai with a twist—where the protagonist tries to be evil but ends up accidentally doing good—then Ore wa Seikan Kokka no Akutoku Ryoushu! (or I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!) might just be your next obsession. Episode 2, titled Rebirth and Revenge, dives deeper into Liam’s new life as a 5-year-old interstellar noble with a vendetta, and boy, does it deliver some satisfying payback. But is it all just fun and games, or does the show stumble under its own ambitions? Let’s break it down, with a little help from fan reactions.

The Plot Thickens (and So Does the Karma)

After a tragic first life filled with betrayal and debt, Liam is reborn into a powerful family in a futuristic empire. His goal? To become the most ruthless overlord the galaxy has ever seen. But Episode 2 flips the script—while Liam thinks he’s scheming for evil, his actions keep leading to oddly wholesome outcomes.

Fans are divided on this tonal shift. Some, like @XArceusX, loved the instant karma served to Liam’s cheating ex-wife and corrupt boss: “That bitch deserved it—guess karma did its work.” Others, like @Comment5, felt the resolution was too quick: “I don’t like how high they piled the sht up only to resolve it in a second.”*

The episode also introduces Liam’s new “family”—his parents, who dump their debts on him and peace out, leaving him with a customizable AI maid named Amagi. Yes, you read that right. Fans couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity, with @Comment28 joking: “Why are you letting your 5-year-old son pick the nipples and reproductive organs of an AI maid robot?”

Amagi: The Real MVP

Amagi, Liam’s robot maid, steals the show. Voiced by Cha Hunter (who’s apparently typecast as maids, per @Comment11), she’s equal parts hilarious and unsettling. Fans adore her dynamic with Liam, even if it’s… questionable at times. @Comment4 hilariously pointed out: “Can’t believe he got freaky in front of Brian, and after his objections, went for some private time with Amagi.”

But beyond the memes, Amagi’s role hints at deeper themes—like the ethics of AI in a world where it’s supposedly banned. @Comment17 raised an eyebrow: “Why would my parents buy me a maid robot when AI is banned in the empire?” It’s a plot hole that might get addressed later, but for now, fans are just enjoying the chaos.

The Guide: Villain or Troll?

The mysterious “Guide” who reincarnated Liam is another point of debate. He’s not your typical benevolent deity—instead, he feeds on suffering. @Comment35 summed it up: “This guy had ulterior motives… sending him into a new world but in another hopeless situation to farm his negative emotions.”

Some fans, like @Comment22, are here for it: “Damn, that woman makes freaking Rachel look good, but at least that Demonic Guide gets the protag some payback.” Others, like @Comment37, are less thrilled: “I don’t know how much I’ll enjoy this show if they keep reminding me of the fucking AI industry of theft every few minutes.”

The Verdict: Fun, Flawed, and Full of Potential

Episode 2 is a rollercoaster. It’s got revenge, robot maids, and a protagonist who’s somehow both a brat and a genius. But it’s not without its issues—some fans found the pacing rushed (@Comment7), while others were put off by the tonal whiplash (@Comment5).

Still, the show’s self-awareness and dark humor are winning people over. @Comment43 nailed it: “Isekai with mecha space is the only one I will watch. So far seems decent.” And with hints of deeper lore (like Liam’s dog’s spirit tagging along, per @Comment4), there’s plenty to look forward to.

Final Thoughts

Ore wa Seikan Kokka no Akutoku Ryoushu! isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel—it’s just here to have fun. And for the most part, it succeeds. Whether you’re in it for the karma, the chaos, or the custom-built maid, Episode 2 delivers. Just don’t think too hard about the ethics.

Rating: 7.5/10 – A solid follow-up with room to grow. Now, bring on the space battles!
