| So..... Basically..... Yokohama Animation Lab is Queen Bee of regular anime Got it |
 |
| Read this manga ages ago. The character design seems really off. But aside that, it was pretty good. |
| . |
| Damn, the manga was decent, but the anime is definitely on speedrun mode, too many scenes were skipped. |

KodomoKomodo said: Damn, the manga was decent, but the anime is definitely on speedrun mode, too many scenes were skipped. Yeah. Probably they want to cram as much as they can into probably 12 episodes, thus skipping, cutting, and even making new scenes instead just making it closer to source material. Which is a shame, really. And I think that character design is all over the place, Tiera looks nothing like the one in LN or even in manga, Rinne looks similar to manga version, Wilhelm is prime example of that "look how they massacred my boy" meme. |
| Holy shit never mind this is just another generic isekai thrash how is this anime even legal ? |

| What a horrible adaptation.. though it's been years since I last read the manga since I forgot what was happening, so I guess I'll just watch for recap purposes. But man, why cut out scenes and have such lazy animation? |
| If you're interested in this do yourself a favor and go read the LN or the manga. This is another soulless low effort, low budget production that shits over the source material. The animation is bad, the direction is bad, the backgrounds are shit and what in the lords name have they done to the character design, it was good in the manga just go with that bruh. |

ANYONE KNOWS WHY MAL APP IN ANDROID NOT SHOWING UPDATES FOR 3 DAYS, IS IT UNDERGOING MAINTENANCE? THERE'S NO UPDATE IN HOME PAGE
| @Shanto_890 I thought I was the only one who is experiencing this |
 |
| Something something SAO clone/ripoff Yea, I expect this one to be average the whole way through lol. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |

Oh, look, another groundbreaking masterpiece emerges from the depths of creativity! An anime about a Virtual Reality MMORPG where players are stuck online until they beat the game, and if they bite the dust in-game, it's a one-way ticket to the afterlife. And guess what? Our hero just happens to be a mighty swordsman clad in black. How utterly unique and revolutionary!

| @LuisSV23 I get your point, but still your summary is 90% incorrect |
| Seems like it made a couple references to SAO and a dig at Isekai 😅 |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |
| But what kind of SAO is this? haha. |
 |
| So it’s SAO mixed with overlord… very interesting. Glad I decided to tap into this. |

 |
| So we start by ripping off SAO then jump right into an isekai.....and the animation quality is average at best. This does not bode well....my choices this season seem to be bad. |
 |
| Apart from the expected dumb trope of isekai, something is off about the animation - I can't pinpoint it but it has to do something with prespective. It's REALLY throwing me off. |
The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. |
| Zero original ideas. |
 |
| Eh... Nah, I'm good lol I don't really wanna stick around for what looks like another SAO |
 |
| I went off to read the manga and I gotta say : where the hell are the official translations? Seriously everywhere I went I swear all I found were horrid fans translations where they just shoved the dialogue into google translate and just slapped it onto the pages. Absolute shitshow, anyone interested avoid the manga at all costs, translations ruined it worse than the tropes did. |
 |
| Interesting, Just started watching, but I am going to keep my expectations down, since it seems like a lot of people says this is pretty much a "sequel" for SAO, LOL. (And I dropped SAO, it wasn't that interesting for me) But yea, the intro is pretty much almost 1-1 with what SAO did for their intro. . BTW... the animation seems kinda awkward? (especially during fighting scenes) Sometimes it's Sharp and Clear. But then some parts were kinda blurry like the art quality dropped all of a sudden. |

Says black hair elf multiple times
Light Novel cover has black hair elf
Elf in the anime has blue hair
How does Yokohama Animation Lab fuck up so bad

| @Red_Ranger_Wien They were probably considering to rip off Asuna's "blue" haired elf in SAO, but decided to change it and forgot to change it everywhere. |
| Twas nb but also ng |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Honestly i never seen anime so poorly made / animated in the first 3 minute of the show. Episode 1 should be where most cheap anime studio pour in the most budget, but from the first min it's so cheap/ poorly made/ ugly from get go. Are the studio/ animators/ artist even trying? Do they really expect people would waste their breath on this after watching the first 3 mins? Already decide to drop this ugly abomination after watching the anime 2 mins, that's a first. |
| it gave off SAO vibes at the beginning, but it quickly turned to not SAO-ish after he defeated the final boss before waking up 500 years later in game. |
