The day is as normal as it can be in high school as the students peacefully go about their everyday activities until an unprecedented catastrophe strikes the school, killing every person in its wake. Guided by what seems to be a miracle, a handful of students are fortunate enough to be reincarnated into another world as nobles, princes, and other kinds of people with prestigious backgrounds. But, some of their classmates didn’t survive because they were killed just after being born.

However, our main character Kumako, reborn as a spider of the weakest kind, immediately experiences the hardships of her dire situation. Even so, she must press on to survive the numerous threats that endanger her life. Discovering that her new world has a system like that of an RPG, she tries her best to hunt prey and defeat monsters to level up and evolve. As she gradually grows stronger, she hopes one day her efforts will be rewarded, and that she will be granted a better life.

Without spoiling more of the story, it is a different approach to isekai anime out there. And also the CGI is edgy so it is a bit difficult to watch. But if you don’t mind then that edginess in anime is really enjoyable. We get to see our main character try to survive despite being a weak Spider and it is funny as hell to see how she figures out how to function as a spider. If you are someone like me who watches isekai anime even though some of them are trash you probably would enjoy it even if the main character is a CGI spider.
