Story Overview: A Journey of Teaching and Trust

It is an A-Rank part adventure-action plot focusing on Dale, a once popular adventurer who decides to quit his life as an A rank adventurer. Instead of seeking his glory, Dale prefers to assist his previous pupils, to lead them through the most perilous labyrinths. This is the story of responsibility, character development, and master and apprentice relationship as Dale takes his pupils through a dangerous mission to the lowest sublevel of a dungeon.

Unlike a typical taste of adventure, the series lays better focus on interpersonal development because Dale gets to see his students grow into great adventurers. In that course, they meet experienced and strong monsters, difficult fights and personal problems, and are also enlightened about leadership and trust.

Rina – A strong-willed former student of Dale’s, and one of the main characters of the series. Her working and friendly relationship with Dale challenges her to the extent of attaining new heights in embracing different forms of challenges including the physical and the emotional barriers.

Klaus – He is slightly redoleted personality and calculative strategic thinker who fits well into the role of the team’s tactician. Dale is to him more than just a trainer, but more of a role model, and he spends a lot of effort trying to cement his standing within the party.

Elise – While not a damage dealer in per se, and will not be topping off the charts in damage per minute, Elise is the healer in the group and the person who holds the party together. Analysing her development through the series is vital to the exploration of the role of mentorship not limited to strategies of combat.

Connection to Other Anime

While “I Left My A-Rank Party to Help My Former Students Reach the Dungeon Depths!” is a complete original series for itself, viewers can easily make relation to similar series like “Danmachi: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” and “Shield: The Kingdom’s First Hero.”

Of course, normal traps like bad pacing, excessive fan-service, or a focus on unnecessary action are present here as well But that is not what defines this series to me – it is all the love that Dale has for his student and vice versa. This mentor/mentee relationship is more focused than in other dungeon-based anime products; it therefore falls under the subgenre as a pleasant innovation.
