| OMGGGG this is epic. an anime which actually doesn't power up ridiculously at episode 1. it start off pretty well with that npc event. and the fact that there are comments on the game etc is a piece of fair world building. i dig it |
 Maybe watching, maybe reading, probably living |
| The animation quality of this show looks surprisingly good. I kinda get what this anime is aiming for but the main protagonist is dull. Other than that, there's nothing too special about this show imo. Character chemistry sells the most entertainment to me imo, especially with Reona's personality. She's much more entertaining to watch than Yuuki. |
 |
| Killing your best friend... what a way to start the game. XD Interesting start so far. Reona forcing Hiro to buy the game was funny. This is something I can enjoy watching. |
 |
| I'm already hooked! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| ah yes, as sexy as i would hope... and from here on we now decide who best girl is<333 |
   |
| I felt Konosuba vibes watching this first ep ngl. I know that it will become a harem/ecchi at some point but if it delivers consistently good humor, count me in! LOL |
 I accept random friend requests! |
| Contrary to popular belief, I, for one am confused as to what the hell is happening. I do have to say it's quite interesting, but still don't get the comedy yet. Nonetheless, will keep watching for now. |
"Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| well that was a riot also wtf is up with the botting (?) in the episode poll lmao |
  |
| Whats up with the hates in the voting? Troll? Anyway I liked it. |
 |
| Liked the first episode, looking forward for the next one! |
| Ehhh, not for me, another self-insert MC who is surrounded by hot girls for no reason, gonna skip it, it is a shame because the girls design is top tier. |
| I think I found a new waifu. |
 |
| i feel like im watching SAO Abridged all over again 8/10 |
 |
| Man, that was awful. All that meta commentary - yeah we know - there are already billions VR game anime. It was painful to watch. |
z00nex said: I guess the best thing about this episode was hearing Ayana’s voice. I didn’t expect him to kill his “childhood friend” like that, I wonder what caused that. Didn't like the story so far. I hate the character designs. Not sure if the song that played at the end is OP or ED but I think it was catchy. “childhood friend” was eating apple with a knife and when MC pounced on him accidentally pushed his hand in which he was holding knife. |

| I don't see any hope for this title despite it having kinda interesting plot and also some animation budget. And this is why: despite having a decent plot and not having anything to do with SAO, it tries so hard to be the hard copy of SAO in some moments for no other reason than sincere lack of taste and creativity. Not only that, but wasting couple of minutes on a scene that shouldn't take more than twenty seconds confirms lack of creativity. Not only that, but some design decisions (boobs larger than Earth) confirms lack of taste. Can an uncreative and tasteless director make something better than waste of time? No. Lacking one of creativity or taste is more than enough to not be able to produce anything better than mediocre. Lacking both is but a red flag. As for that accidental murder scene, it was okay until it wasn't okay anymore. |
| Great ,it's one of those comedies that i will enjoy but i didn't like the whole he is loser in life and all i mean we have seen too many of these things he is gonna get encouraged by the realism in the game then it's gonna effect his life and he is gonna stand up to his bullies ,just get to the comedy part man who cares.also the ED was great, loved it. |

As for that accidental murder scene, it was okay until it wasn't okay anymore. thats the point, the author is making fun of sao by touching it with reality MC: kirito clone MC "best friend": Eugeo Alicia "childhood love interest" : Alice Fairy game employee : Yui just compare the appearances you'll see |
| smile B) |
Author is failing at making fun. Author is making stupidity and bore. |
| So, it's pretty much Joro-kun and Hotaru Shidare inside a crazy realistic VRMMORPG with stakes that escalate everything to 11? I'm in. |
Loved it, Reona best girl |
| Looks promising , first half of that ep was meh but the rest looks really cool ngl |
| Never read the source material nor the manga, so this was something completely new for me, but since i like isekai this first episode was pretty solid and more original. 4/5 ps: Whast's wrong with the score system? Aren't MAL admins yet fixing this bot spamming? All the first episodes of this season have such 1 point score spam. |
| I really liked it, exited for the rest of the episodes Why did so many people give this 1/5 on the poll? |

All the first episodes of the spring season have such polls altered by BOT spams that push 1/5 score, already reported to administrators, hope they do something about this. This poll have 1000+ negative votes with only 87 replies, this is absolutely impossible, is a mass bot spam that actually exploit the poll system. |
| Didn't expect much, but it was surprisingly entertaining. Nice to have something watchable on Wednesdays from now on. |
| This is so good. It is like watching SAO Abridged. This is going to be one of my favorite in season for sure. |
 |
| Lmao at first I thought this was going to be another dendrogram VRMMORPG show with a Kirito cut out MC. I could not have been more wrong. This first episode was hilarious. It’s like a great mix of Bofuri and Konosuba. Really promising. Art is great, comedy landed and waifus. Should be a free 10 |
 |
| judging by the episode 1s, i like this one better than Sentouin so far lol |
| Again, I wasn't expecting a thing but it managed to make me laugh so I'll try another one or two. |
| Damn that was a crazy start. I guess we're starting off with the bad end lol. Reona's body is actually ridiculous looking...but Im in because she is beautiful lol. The animation is CLEANNN!!! I love it. |
| Listen to my podcast https://anchor.fm/waifusandweeaboos Follow my twitch. https://www.twitch.tv/sorasensei1 Spring 2024 Waifus on Profile "You can have multiple Waifus" -me |
| I will continue to watch to see where it will go, because looks pretty safe for now. So is a Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but as Japanese VRMMORPG? |
 |
| You don't like it when a shows attempt to write about something that they have zero actual knowledge like SAO?. And it's hard to shrug it off through suspension of disbelief when the show begins with the narrator condescendingly explaining at length that actually everybody hates difficult games, and especially hates realistic games. Sorry, Dark Souls, IWBTG, Undertale, Elder Scrolls, and all multiplayer games ever. You've been declared to be unpopular and nobody wants to play you. It is incredible how the writers of light novels do not know anything about the genre that they supposedly love. |
