Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time (2025) s01e01 Episode Script
I Was Summoned By Accident
[TAKUMI]
What is this?
Where am I?
Oh, yeah.
I was enveloped
in a bright light.
And then
Then, I
♪
[NOLYN]
Traveler.
You have been summoned
to the world of Mildgard
by the otherworlder
summoning spell.
♪
So, welcome.
I'm Lady Nolyn.
There's been a mistake!
[TAKUMI]
Huh?
My apologies,
it seems you were caught up
in a summoning meant
for other people.
[TAKUMI]
What mistake?
You just said
I was summoned here
literally a few seconds ago.
I know.
But let me explain.
By random selection,
the summoning spell
chooses between
countless targets
across a multitude of worlds.
You were removed from the list
but somehow
it picked you anyway.
[TAKUMI]
I was removed?
For starters,
the otherworlder summoning
is a very dangerous spell!
[buzzes]
The laws of nature
on planet Earth
are different from Mildgard,
so the spell carried high risk
of Mildgard itself collapsing.
[grunts] And that's exactly
why it was forbidden!
But that damn dunce
of a nation
recklessly activated it anyway.
[TAKUMI]
Wow, a Goddess just cursed.
When I noticed it
became active,
I decided to intervene
immediately.
But I was too late.
So, you're here, for now.
[TAKUMI]
Does that mean the others
who were summoned
before me are here, too?
[NOLYN]
Well, no, the proper targets
of the spell were safely
summoned to the place
where the spell was activated,
the Holy Sidonia Empire.
[TAKUMI] So, what you're saying
is me being summoned here
was nothing but a mistake.
Yes, precisely!
[TAKUMI] If that's the case,
then take me back home!
I'm sorry.
-I can't do that.
-[TAKUMI] What?
I got so frustrated with them,
so I patched things up
in order to prevent them
from using that forbidden
spell a second time!
And then
[TAKUMI]
Then what?
You see, regarding the patch.
It deals with the distortion
between the laws of the worlds
caused by the spell.
First, dealing
with the composition of the
[TAKUMI] Can you just get
to the point, please?
Hmm.
Returning to your world
is no longer possible!
[TAKUMI]
No way!
Also, you don't have
a body anymore.
[TAKUMI]
My body's gone? Really?
[NOLYN] You've caught
all kinds of blowback
since you were excluded
from the list.
I truly am sorry!
[giggles]
[TAKUMI] I can't go home
and you're laughing about it?
What am I supposed to do now?
I guess give up on your
old life and start over.
This time
as a resident of Mildgard.
[TAKUMI]
Start over?
Does this mean
I'm also going to be
summoned to that Sidonia
place you mentioned?
Or what?
It's certainly a possibility,
but the Holy Sidonia Empire
can be a problematic
place, y'know.
And seeing
as you're here by accident,
your treatment there
could be rather awful.
[TAKUMI] Why would they do
that after summoning me?
[NOLYN]
Because you're not a target.
[TAKUMI]
Oh, that's right.
Now, don't you worry.
I do have an idea.
And since I'm feeling guilty
about what happened.
How about I send
you to a different nation?
And I'll throw
in my super support
as an apology.
You'll have my blessing,
as well.
-So?
-Your blessing?
[NOLYN]
They're in games, novels,
and even anime in Japan, right?
You'll be in a fantasy
world like those.
So exciting, huh?
[TAKUMI]
I feel nothing but anxiety.
But aren't there monsters too?
Like goblins and dragons?
[NOLYN]
And that's why I'm giving you
my super support, correct?
Uh-aha.
-[TAKUMI] Hm.
-It's settled.
Now then
see if you can will "Status."
Status.
[gasps]
I'm 17?
Whoa, they have jobs here?
I was a salaryman
in my past life.
-I was pushing 40
-Who cares about the past?
Oh. And there're no
salarymen on Mildgard.
Let's see!
So, hero and warrior
are two possible jobs for you.
Also, there's swordsman,
mage, knight, thief,
and hunter.
There are production jobs too.
Herbalist and alchemist,
blacksmith, carpenter,
and others.
[TAKUMI] ListenI'm not one
to go looking for trouble.
So, I'll go
with a production job.
-Boring.
-[TAKUMI] Lay off, all right?
Well, if you utilize
the skills
you acquire
through your actions.
I'm sure you'll have
a job in no time.
-[TAKUMI] What is that?
-[NOLYN] If you're set
on a production job,
then I'll give you
a spell meant for those,
and I'll throw in a few
other things as well.
After all, it's the least
I can do for you.
[TAKUMI]
Wh-What's going on?
[gasps]
Get this away from
Argh!
It's inside me!
Bye, you're off
to the continent of Asgard, so.
Work hard and have fun!

This could be a problem.
I can't let anyone find out
I have the Goddess' blessing.
Oh, right!
I've seen this before in games.
I can do it
for the item box skill.
Magic, huh?
I should give it a shot
and see if I can really use it.
But I shouldn't use fire yet,

to spread here.

You're awesome!
Actually, I don't extend
my blessings for minor issues.
You got lucky.

Come on, seriously?
I didn't want that!

You aren't hurt, right?
Nope.

Bord Village.
I was picking a few herbs
and ended up getting
lost in the forest.
Village?
Would it be all right
if I came back with you?
Of course, you can!
You're a big help.
I didn't want to camp
outside tonight.

Welcome, young heroes.
For responding to our summons.
You have my deepest gratitude.
What summons?
Can you just tell us
where we are?
[ELIZABETH] This isn't
the world you're accustomed to.
This is another world entirely.
-Huh?
-Huh?
[ELIZABETH] You've been
summoned here for a purpose.
We require the power
that each of you possesses
to help save this world.

Cut the crap!
Neither of us understands
what you're saying!

Quite obvious.
However, all the details

[BANGA] I'm so grateful
you rescued our daughter!
I'm Banga, the village hunter,

Thank you
for saving our sweet girl.
The fact that
you're gathering herbs
at your age tells me
you've got a good head
on your shoulders.
Thank you!
Hey, uh,
if it's not too much trouble,
would you mind
if I posted up in your village
for a little while?
'Course not!
These lands are quite bountiful
for an herbalist like yourself!
Yeah, and there's an ore vein
not far from the village,
as well!
This place is heaven
for craftsmen like us!
There's ore too?
This guy here is Bobon.
He's a blacksmith,
so he knows his way
around an ore vein.
Stay as long as you like,
young man!
We're happy to have you!
I'm very grateful to be here!
Welcome to Bord Village,
Takumi!
Now, then
I'm afraid our village
doesn't have an inn.
Oh.
Where shall I stay, then?
[BOBON] Well, why don't
we just build you
-your own home?
-Huh?
[BANGA]
Sorry, it's a cramped lot,
but it's all that's available
at the moment.
Please, this is enough for me.
[BOBON] All right men,
this house won't build itself!
-[CRAFTSMEN] Right!
-[TAKUMI] To help them,
I should level
the ground first.
♪
Oh, wow!
Hmm. That's a quick way
to use up most of my mana.
[BANGA]
Takumi.
I didn't realize
you could use magic.
[BOBON]
Especially not like that.
Uh, was I totally
out of line, or what?
[chuckles]
Nah!
Why don't you save your mana
and leave the rest to us,
my friend!
[CRAFTSMAN 1A] Let's knock out
the foundation first!
[TAKUMI] What a pleasant start
to life in a new world.
This might not be half bad!
[birds chirping]
[TAKUMI]
Home, sweet home!
Thanks to my Woodworking,
Blacksmithing,
and Carpentry skills.
I was able to craft
a basic set of furniture!
Right now,
I'm a warrior and a mage.
I wonder if I can change that?
Ask and you shall receive!
Now, then.
Mm-hmm.
This is more in line
with what I'd hoped for!
Time to work.
[TAKUMI] I have a table full
of iron, silver,
and copper ore that I mined
with Bobon the Blacksmith.
Plus, there's magic iron ore!
If memory serves me,
it's iron ore imbued
with mana.
And today, I'm gonna
transmute them all into ingots!
To smelt this much
ore at once,
you'd need a large furnace,
but I'm in a fantasy world now!
And now,
I'll try out some alchemy,
because I'm an alchemist.
Oh, yeah, that has a nice ring!
Generally speaking,
alchemy comprises
five different techniques.
Decomposition, extraction,
pulverization,
there's synthesis,
and then recomposition.
Once I've extracted
the iron ore with this method.
I hit it with a small dose
of Earth Magic.
No way!
I made an iron ingot!
It depletes
my mana fast, though.
But stillI can make ingots!
I'll keep plugging away,
because there's a ton of stuff
I want to make
with iron and copper!
[humming]
[knocking on door]
Hey, Mister Takumi!
I've brought you some
fresh food to eat!
Somebody, please help!
-[whimpering]
-I think Mister Takumi's dead!
[TAKUMI] I got carried away
and used so much
mana I passed out.
Then, came the stern lecture
from Martha
about the dangers
of overdoing it.
After receiving
a healing potion from Banga.
I continued my alchemy
without having
to take any mana breaks.
Except when Martha or Molly
came to check on me.
Which they did.
I extracted iron, silver,
copper, magic iron,
plus, a small amount
of gold, lead,
tungsten, titanium, and tin.
I was able to craft
cooking utensils
and other helpful tools.
[sighs]
Thanks to all that,
my Alchemist level skyrocketed!

Let's hit it with a blast
of your fire magic!
Yes, sir!

Now!

That is one gorgeous blade!
On my honor,
it's the finest piece
I've ever smithed.
Once I make the sheath,
it'll be complete.
[TAKUMI] Guess
my blacksmith level is 40.
Even after tons
of alchemy practice.
It figures.
-Potions, huh?
-Yes.
You have a few
you'd be willing to spare?
Sure I do.
They're all basic, though.
[TAKUMI]
That'll work!
I've gathered
so many medicinal herbs,
I wanna try my hand
at potion-making!
That's great!
When they're done,
you can sell me some.
I'd love to!
This is my first time,
so please
don't get your hopes up.

[TAKUMI] First batch is crushed
Hilkuk herbs and water.
The more I mix it,
the more vibrant
my new concoction becomes!
[giggles]
Sweet!
Brings back memories, too.
Reminds me of doing
experiments as a child.
[liquid trickling]
The colors don't match.
I feel mana from mine.
Why is that?
Because I conjured
the water with my magic, maybe?
This is so cool!

Home, sweet home!
Thanks to my Woodworking,
Blacksmithing,
and Carpentry skills.
I was able to craft
a basic set of furniture!
Right now,
I'm a warrior and a mage.
I wonder if I can change that?
Ask and you shall receive!
Now, then.
Mm-hmm.
This is more in line
with what I'd hoped for!
Time to work.
[TAKUMI] I have a table full
of iron, silver,
and copper ore that I mined
with Bobon the Blacksmith.
Plus, there's magic iron ore!
If memory serves me,
it's iron ore imbued
with mana.
And today, I'm gonna
transmute them all into ingots!
To smelt this much
ore at once,
you'd need a large furnace,
but I'm in a fantasy world now!
And now,
I'll try out some alchemy,
because I'm an alchemist.
Oh, yeah, that has a nice ring!
Generally speaking,
alchemy comprises
five different techniques.
Decomposition, extraction,
pulverization,
there's synthesis,
and then recomposition.
Once I've extracted
the iron ore with this method.
I hit it with a small dose
of Earth Magic.
No way!
I made an iron ingot!
It depletes
my mana fast, though.
But stillI can make ingots!
I'll keep plugging away,
because there's a ton of stuff
I want to make
with iron and copper!

[TAKUMI] I got carried away
and used so much
mana I passed out.
Then, came the stern lecture
from Martha
about the dangers
of overdoing it.
After receiving
a healing potion from Banga.
I continued my alchemy
without having
to take any mana breaks.
Except when Martha or Molly
came to check on me.
Which they did.
I extracted iron, silver,
copper, magic iron,
plus, a small amount
of gold, lead,
tungsten, titanium, and tin.
I was able to craft
cooking utensils
and other helpful tools.
