| So we got more character background info The first Boss Fight Enemy Guilds who seem to be power Mad Great Co-operative Team play A little bit more info on how things work for example: only certain foods have taste such as salt and sugar IT would seem that that the main plot for this series is going to be about Adventuring in this new world and at the Same time. And the Main Antanogists are going to be Either the monsters and bosses in the Game And The Guilds and Players who seem to have become power Crazy ok now i am totally convinced this is going to be a great series i will wait for more to come :) |
| I had a feeling Akatsuki's the same age as them. |

| ......Great episode. Waiting for the OST release |
| Very sweet episode ^^ this anime is turning out a lot better than I had expected. I really love the atmosphere ^^ Nice to see that the main characters are not high school kids :) They do indeed feel a lot more mature than the typical shounen protagonists that I am so very tired of :D |
| Great OP, great ED and although not great so far, okay characters. Liking how they're actually fighting instead of having meaningless dialogue, I love dialogue but then it has to be good. Can honestly say I'm enjoying it way more than SAO so far. |
joshua_mai said: Akatsuki is pretty cool but why does she have to keep saying "my lord...my lord...my lord" I mean come on..... xD Some people just love role-playing, you know. You're right. In episode 2, Shiroe also says Akatsuki's a hardcore roleplayer. Another great episode! I really like how they displayed teamwork and common group strategy: Naotsugu tanks and taunts the enemy, Akatsuki does a stealth attack from the back (in games, this would result in critical damage) while Shiroe debuffs the enemy and buffs his allies. I'd say they definitely got a rank S there haha (or maybe I'm just overthinking things). I really like the ED <3 And lol'd at Akatsuki's expression when Henrietta spoke. Nyanta's also a level 90, interesting. |

| So far, so good. The storytelling is way better than it was in SAO. |
| Man, I'm enjoying this so much! And it's a 2-cour anime to boot! I really hope Debauchery Tea Party is reformed in some way, as I doubt all of the members have been dragged back into this. |

According to the poster , I think Shiroe will form a new party with some old member like Nyaa and Naotsugu .The rest will be new members like akatsuki |
| Straightforward and simple but fun Really liking how the show is panning out with the world, teamwork, and main cast |
| Very nice background story of Shirie I liked the traveling part with the Griffons as well, It's a bit odd seeing Nao like he wasn't party of the Debauchery Tea Party when they stood on the cliff to view the sunset recalling from the game memory Poor Nao again for being a punching bag for the party and the boss which he probably will endure the entire run |
rivailde said: Better than SAO Although I agree with you (and think that it isn't hard to be better than SAO), I think we should stop comparing them. Even though their both set in a video game world, they are vastly different already. This series is more of an adventure while in SAO, it was more focused on getting out and later romance. Anyways, I really enjoy all the exposition their giving which brings me into the game world. Really makes me want to play MMOs. I love the fights in this anime too. |

| Aw the food doesn't taste like anything? They look so good though, shame. Nice episode, we got to learn more about Shiroe and how he ended up playing the game. I also like his explanations when the party is fighting against monsters. Nyanta seems like a very cool character as well, looking forward to seeing him in action. |
| Wow. I thought Akatsuki is also a kid which is weird to be paired with Shiroe... now knowing she is the same age as Shiroe changes all of that. Ahh, I see, so that is probably the reason why he doesn't like guilds, since he needs to help lots of people. |

| That was Fun. love this show. |
| Decent, but still not better than first arc of SAO, IMO(second arc was not good at all). The death in game means death in real life factor needs to be there for it to compete, but it is a 2 cour show, so it has plenty of time for that to happen. |
| Wasn't too impressed with this week's episode. Next week facing that gang look promising though. Akatsuki being the same age as Shireo lol kk |

Wind_Sr said: Akatsuki being the same age as Shireo lol kk Never get old, these things. As for the episode, it was quite enjoyable. Finally a gameplayer appears in anime who isn't a NEET, and a most definitely not a useless bum like in certain anime lead but an engineering graduate to be. Which is a Plus. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Very enjoyable episode. It would totally suck to have food taste like that though. Just salt and sugar D: They've got plenty of time to flesh things out so it's nice to see them adventuring and experiencing what the game has to offer. |

| akatsuki is so cute :3, I wonder how next episode is going to turn out. |
| This plot is so thin. Okay so they're going to go rescue some chick, then what? There's almost nothing going on. Not going to drop it yet, but I hardly think that this is a fantastic series. |
| Definitely curious about Shiroe's past...Wow, this ep, ended so fast. Not a boring moment. |

shanimebib said: Finally a gameplayer appears in anime who isn't a NEET, and a most definitely not a useless bum like in certain anime lead but an engineering graduate to be. Which is a Plus. Yes this is the best news for me yet. I am so glad Akatsuki is the same age as Shireo and like you said, they are both college students about to graduate. I feel i can relate to them a lot more now haha. CAD is really sweet, so it's cool to know he's been using that knowledge for the game too. yoshiyukiblade said: This isn't a life-and-death struggle for survival, but rather a search for meaning in this new existence. The MC found such meaning when he met his allies in the world before he was trapped and now he's rediscovering it with this friends again. Definitely caught that at the end right there and i have to say, I really like this theme. It's interesting to know that Naotsugu was also part of the old tea party group and there is definitely a reason why they are still good friends. Nice to see them experiencing this stuff together again. It also seems like Shireo is all up for being friendly and helping out but he's not for that famed life, surrounded by so called friends who only follow him for their own interests. |
| Omg I love this series so much!! Would be amazing, but needs more work on the story and better boss monsters and such, so there would be an actual challenge. But, either way, they're just starting off in the game so I guess, shikatanai na. |
| I found this episode a bit boring. Just action with some random flashbacks to the past. I'm not an SAO fan by any means, but I'd prefer LH to step it up in terms of animation because it's the one thing it's lacking in right now. But obviously, I'll keep watching. Uncanny said: This plot is so thin. Okay so they're going to go rescue some chick, then what? There's almost nothing going on. Yes, this. They need to start introducing a "but there's this thing going on" to the main plot which is just traveling to the other place to save the maid girl. |
| This is definitely one of my topanimethis season. The atmosphere this episode is good. A little flashback of Shiroe in his early days at playing Elder Tale is make me apreciate this more. It look like little by little the member of Debauchery Tea Party make an appearance in the screen. And it seems that some kind of alliance will will be made at the Cresent Moon Alliance. What is the purpose of maid skill anyway lol. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |

| I forgot to add that the loli joke will never get old. |

| Ok then, I expect great things from this. It was simple and funny, with a overall of good action. It was also nice to see the members of the Debauchery Tea Party, at least a part of them. Furthermore, more backstory is always good. |

delulytric said: How is even Akatsuki the same age as Shiroe omgomg. Do you know who is Aoi Yuuki? She's 21 years old seiyuu and her height is 1.45m |
 |
| Great episode!! I understand Shiroe, it's good that you're a dependable person and people rely on you for help, but after a while and they constantly ask for your help, it's a pain in the ass... |
 |
| I liked the glimpse into the MCs past even thought it was kinda clichéd. The rest of the episode was also decent but I'm somehow less enthusiastic than I was about the first two episodes. The new villain doesn't look too interesting which might be the reason for that. Read more at http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=670019#TWZbBwvTWTfvmtse.99 |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Loved that background at the ending scene |

I fully agree with your reaction. |
| The brief glimpse of his past, and his experience with helping people was a nice way to explain his reluctance in helping Serara in the earlier episode. It probably brought back that annoying feeling of possibly being used by others. I know its been done often enough, with having this kind of mysterious past for the MC, mainly this legendary group of people, but its been enough of a hook to keep me interested in finding out what happened, and what will happen. I also heard that apparently Still enjoying the series so far, This is a series that I would have preferred marathoning from start to end, but ah well... |

Mahat said: NeoAnkara said: I forgot to add that the loli joke will never get old. Except she never really seemed all that young to begin with. This is anime, so it's always quite hard to tell, but her facial features aren't particularly round or anything (just compare a good shot of her face with one of Serara's), and in the way she speaks and thinks, she sounds pretty mature and autonomous (if you get past the hardcore role player stuff... though even that contributes to show she is certainly no kid, what with being able to invest herself in a consistent role 24/7 and all.) Again for the personality, just compare with what we have seen of Serara so far (who definitely looks like a kid in my eyes, if that wasn't clear already). So, yeah... Only thing going against her was her size (and even on that field, she hasn't quite the proportions you'd expect of a little girl). But then again, seems like the characters actually believed her to be a child in-universe, so I wonder why I'm rambling here... Just don't mind me. ^^' Of course one great advantage to an assassin would be to have people take you lightly because you appear to be a child. (In the old AD&D days, they always disregarded the abilities of us halflings...only to realize too late just what we could do, bwahaha...). Regardless of her appearance though, I think her interest in Shiroe is more than just game-play. I'm also wondering about the former leader of the Tea Party, and just what connection he had with her. |

| I wonder what's up with the NPCs... |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Where is the leader of the tea party anyways? I thought people would be in an uproar and news would spread fast in which city she's currently in. |
