| Expected more action in first ep, but maybe it's all for good, since fast pacing is not always good thing. Someone mentioned 'tragedy', so I'm looking forward for next eps, hopes they will surprise us or give us some drama ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Is it just me or main protagonist has really unfiting voice? Like it fits someone older or more serious... I hope I will later get used to it, since everytime he says something I feel like someone else says it. So many characters and we didn't get tsundere? yay ( although all of them really have calm attitude ) |
| Meh, art is great but the plot and characters just scream "someone's gonna die, EDGY". The sexual thing will turn out horrible too won't it? My least favorite series out of this genre. |
 |
| That was... slow. But well. I'll give it some more eps in hopes of plot picking up. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| Not as good as I expected for a first episode, a bit boring ... but art and animation are soooo great |
| like many others said slow, but in my opinion more or less enjoyable. the artstyle is nice, has something of a fairy tale |
 |
| So was a cozy ep that fricken megane thief chick super slamminn inb4 wham episode, preview shows favaro jr crying so that might be it lol. |
| The art and animation is really good, characters deverse and the story can go multiple ways so I'm actually excited for the next show. |
 |
| Subtle and not so subtle fan-service apart it didn't feel annoying at least. The story feels like an advanced Log Horizon scenario, Art style is amazing and with the relaxing music, it sets up a pretty chill mood. Wonder if it will explore heavy slice of life tones with lesser focus on action and fantasy, that would be an interesting take on this genre. |
| I really enjoyed this one. Lovely visuals and soundtrack. I also love the concept. They're complete newbies; they're not used to handling weapons, they're not used to taking lives, they're not used to fighting for their lives. It's such a fresh and realistic take from the regular fantasy adventures we see. It also had very lovely ambiance too. Man, Barbara was sexy. I'd wager Thief would be my class too. Or Hunter. Really looking forward to seeing more of this one. |
| I thought this was very good, but would prefer if they were from that world and not just another SAO27. I wonder how difficult is to make a novel/manga/anime with rpg characteristics, like Dungeon Ni, without being in fact a rpg with real people transfering to a virtual world. |
| Nothing happened but still enjoyable overall and the characters were awesome and some cute ones too. |
 |
| After sitting through that absolutely aweful dialogue I didn't even have to think twice about it. Dropped. |
| Much better than I expected. Wasn't really looking forward to this show but now I'm ready for the next ep. Pretty decent first episode with nice world building and exposition. Ost is quite decent! Art style looks great too. Characters seem interesting as well and are likable. |
| That wa good. But shit, after watching the preview of the next epiode, that guy (i don't remember the name) was crying with some blood on his face, so I think someone is gonna die T^T |
| damn those chicks (▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿ ̿) |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| Wow, this was really boring. And the game + amnesia twist is already so bloody obvious, it surprises me that some people didn't get it. Oh well, just another cheap shitty SAO knockoff with a terrible A-1 production. Not to mention the awful dialogue during that boobie scene... |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| What a meh start.. I was getting bored. We still have no idea how they got there. It seems like words outside of the "game" come up and they have no idea what the meaning of the words are. Characters are eh.. All right, I guess. Hopefully it gets better. |
 |
| Good shit, chill shit |
 |
Nidhoeggr said: a terrible A-1 production. How is it terrible? Pretty high production value shit, or at least it looks like it |
|
| A-1 always fucks up their action shows later on in the production schedule. Just you wait. And outside of some decent background art it didn't really have a lot of animation.... |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Just finished episode one and it's pretty decent. I really like the water color background they have done. Really adds a nice artwork feel to the show. The rest of the animation is pretty good to, but that water color though. The characters are pretty cool, although the scripting is a bit weird feeling. You have the optimistic one, the outgoing one, the shy one, the snarky one, and you have the wondering one. Seems like the perfect group to adventure. Poor Shihoru being harassed by Ranta made kind of upset, but oh well. Shihoru and Yume has some nice assets too. The one thing that made me somewhat angry is the fact that they couldn't kill two goblins. They were goblins for gods sake. Grimgar must be a stonger fantasy world. |
| 2/5 seems interesting but i think that started kinda slow paced.. also the art and animationg are original hope i get better in next ep |
Nidhoeggr said: A-1 always fucks up their action shows later on in the production schedule. Just you wait. And outside of some decent background art it didn't really have a lot of animation.... So how about you call the production terrible when it's actually terrible, for now it's nothing short of top notch so you saying that it's terrible comes as stupid. And it didn't need a lot of animation since there wes barely any action. Once again, you are saying redundant things |
|
| Slow but enjoyable episode. This looks actually promising, the MC aren't OP and are a group of noobs currently, I hope the series will center in their development. The animation was beautiful, btw. Also, dat Barbara. |
 |
| The first half was fine but the latter half was really boring. Hope it actually gets exciting later on. |
| every single one of my forum posts is dumb and invalid except for 1, I don't claim them it was a different person it was all fake |
| I was hyped about this one....it delivered...i didnt read LN....so i cant say what they skipped or changed. But they could still tell us about skipped things later....as flashbacks....i think they were transfered to another world and are not in some kind of game too. Overlal nice animation, colors and backgrounds. Will watch this....A-1 is rulling this cour :P |
| [center]If you aren't troubling the rest of the world, then there's no harm in being abnormal. |
| This was a decent first episode, pretty slow pace though. Kinda remind of that dungeon series that came out last year. |
| This was kinda meh overall, but I like the fact that all the characters very clearly have only a weeks training under their belt and therefore suck at real fighting, and the backgrounds were pretty. Guess I'll stick with it for now. |
| It was ok. I haven't read the novel but I really enjoyed the manga, will try and give the anime at least 3 episodes. |
 |
| I am so tired of seeing fanservice and guys talking about boobs in almost every single anime. I feel like I could like this show if it had female characters who aren't just there for fanservice. |
| Was OK, quite slow paced I even got a SOL vibe from the group interactions. Will be interesting to see where this goes. |
 >fighting goblins Absolutely horrifying lol A decent start I guess. Most of the episode was just exposition and worldbulding which was interesting but I'd appreciate if they'd stop spoonfeeding every information. The dialogue also needs a lot of working though. They spent like almost 5 minutes of the episode's run time talking about a girl's boobs which was awful and went longer than it should have. The art was fantastic by the way. Hopefully the studio maintains the same level of quality although knowing A-1's track record, I'm pretty damn sure they'll fuck up somewhere. |

| That was actually a very nice first episode though. i didn't expect that. the story was interesting and the action was good. this anime can turn out to be a good one. the OST sounded nice too. obviously the second anime that i look foward too after Boku dake ga Inai Machi Edit: i just see the original character design and WOW. the diference. the character design in this episode was very good but i much prefer the original ones :D. |
 |
| I like the art style of the backgrounds :) I think the voice of the main guy doesn't really suit him though... a bit too deep for his looks imo but oh well nothing too shocking |
| I loved this episode. Simple art but really fitting. The way Shihoru blushes AWHHH. |
| Fuck, this was bad. |
| Probably the #1 most disappointing episode for me so far. I like the trapped in a game genre, despite it getting a lot of flak. Log Horizon and Overlord are some of my favourite anime, so I was hoping for good things for this. Was rather enjoying it at first, until they decided to spend the last half of the episode resorting to bullshit fanservice and teasing each other about their fucking boobs. GG nice worldbuilding you did there, real great. Who even needs to introduce characters and explain the world, show a few more guilds and demonstrate a little plot progression when you can spend half the time giving us scantily clad girls and stupid teasing about whether someone is fat or not. Also dislike the design of the Thief woman. Sigh. The background artstyle was nice though, I'll give it that. |

 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| i mean im not crazy about how they deviated from the ln but what can you do lol. the bg art is 100/10 though as well as the theme song it sounds really upbeat and has that warm and cozy village-y vibe. voice actors all realy good i love haruhiros. skipped stuff from ln i wouldve preferred if they had adapted |
| This was alright. The art feels different but the characters and premise have so far failed to catch my interest. The animation felt a little awkward as well, especially with character movements. Also the fanservice was cringe. |
| I liked this episode. Great atmosphere, world building, animation, character design and music. The fanservice is not too distracting, and at least it's for both sexes. However, what was up with that stupid dialogue and those two girls being so stupid? From the first scene, you could see that they're the only one who can't fight, and then we had the argument over their breasts and one of them started crying about being fat wtf |

| This is a prime example of why anime gets a bad rep. Unneeded overt sexualization. Needless to say, I'm not going to continue even if the designated funny guy becomes the king of choices. And neither should you. Interesting premise, fantastic artwork, and excellent voice actors are wasted here. :( |
| Man, I've been excited since I heard about the anime adaptation and I'm liking how it started. They glossed over a few details but overall they kept the general key points there. I'm wondering how they'll animate as I never got a solid image of it in my head. Also I'm liking Haruhiro's seiyuu, if I'm not mistaken he also did Takeru from Taimadou. |
