In reincarnation stories set in another world, the protagonist usually welcomes strong power, but the protagonist of this work wants, on the contrary, not to stand out. Once being ordinary becomes the goal, the center of laughter is not scenes that show off ability but scenes where she tries to hide it and gets caught. The point that the result can change depending on what standard defines 'average' is both the joke contained in the title and the device that drives the story. It is a setup that is better enjoyed as light comedy than as a serious adventure.
It is directed by Masahiko Ohta and stars Azumi Waki and Sora Tokui. Sora Tokui also appears in 'The Abandoned Saintess's Gourmet Journey to Another World: I Summoned a Camper Van with a Hidden Skill', so it can be watched in connection with another work set in another world. It is a work rated 15 and over, with 24 minutes per episode, and it has been available by subscription on TVING since May 20, 2020.
What to watch for

Because the goal is to become ordinary rather than to become strong, its direction is the opposite of typical reincarnation stories.
- 02
The setup that she was already a little more capable than others in her past life explains why the protagonist wants to be ordinary.
- 03
At 24 minutes per episode, the short length is well suited to watching one episode at a time, lightly.
