Drug Store in Another World: The Slow Life of a Cheat Pharmacist

2021 · 1 season

A gentle, low-stakes comfort watch, like sinking into a warm bath of cozy fantasy errands and mild comedy.

Created by: Seo Hye-jin
Genres: Animation, Comedy, Sci-fi & fantasy
Starring: Jun Fukushima, Risae Matsuda, Satsumi Matsuda

Overview: Reiji Kirio was a corporate wage slave, who did nothing but work all day, every day. On a typical day of walking to work with a hollow look on his face, he suddenly found himself in the forest of another world. "Oh, this must be one of those isekai reincarnations people keep talking about." The two skills he has are "Appraise" and "Drug Discovery." Those don't sound too impressive... well, whatever. Except these turn out to be particularly overpowered skills! And so, a story about following the slow life philosophy while running a drugstore in another world begins.
