chinese cartoon, that was quite good featuring washed up veteran BurNIng-GOD. but how is a grindy MMORPG an e-sports?
and burning just won DAC, pretty nice coincidence.
Some games are trying to pull it off recently.


Anyways, the episode was ok, but the CGI was making me hurt. Those CGI people in the cafe, man..

Much better than I expected. I probably never would have given this a chance if it didn't help fulfill a category on the 2018 AWC. I'm glad I found it!

Oh this is my first ever anime with mandarin dialogue. It's a bit awkward since it's one of the spoken languages where I'm from, but this mainland Chinese accent is definitely noticeable.

Still gonna watch it all, of course!

Hearing Chinese instead of Japanese is really distracting.

LOL...... I sort of had the same feeling. Mine was that even though I don't speak Japanese, I feel comfortable around it in anime. Chinese reminds me of how little I am around anything except the American staples.....English.....Spanish....French

Nice episode and art. This appears to be a nice easy to watch anime.

Ah yes, a Chinese cartoon. I really have to get used to it since from how it seems, they talk even faster than the Japanese language.

Damn, they get straight into the plot, actually, too quickly, but well, this is a new beginning for the MC, so what happens after is what's important.

Wait, how does an MMORPG game have an e-sport? Does it have some kind of tournament things or something?

I actually like how they used CGI during certain scenes on certain objects to make their movements and even their appearance look more realistic.

I love seeing and feeling the atmosphere of a net cafe full of gamers eagerly anticipating the countdown of a new game/server being opened at midnight!

I was wondering if someone would clarify a few things.

That main thing that has be confused is exactly what is job/relationship with the girl he calls boss is? Is he paid? Is his job simply to be in some clan with her, or what is going on?

He is still barred from the profession circuit of Glory right? He retired for one year from playing in some league/tournament, but he is allowed to do everything else with glory outside of that?

The woman is the internet cafe's owner and he works for her as internet cafe manager. so, of course he is paid.

He is barred for one year from playing in professional league. not the game itself

Sometimes I felt like at the scene with Mucheng and the Jiashi club that the lines were drawn too thick. Also when we first see the head of the Jiashi club, the animation tries to make the room "spin" a little but it just looked unnatural because it looked like they just video edited the head of the Jiashi club to move right, without animating it. There's a lot of CG too which looks kinda weird but as long as it's only the background characters, I can withstand it.

The live action actually rewrites the characters quite a bit different. (ome very big differnces in background stories) While they mostly look the same there's some big differences in appearances for some (like Muchengs and Shuotian hair color).

When I watched a few episodes Tang felt a bit off to me. Hard to say what exactly. Guo guo is pretty much the only character they really nailed in the live action.

Ingame characters look waaaaaay different tho. A witch without a hat just isn't a witch at all. Its funny because they use a witches hat in the live action scene where they are making a photo and you notice how much better Wang looks with the hat on.

Quality of the models isnt bad but the design. No idea why they changed them so much. Its very hard to see what class a character is in the live action.

The live action in general changes way too much from the anime and novel.

Thanks for the blatant advertisement Tencent! This isn't a TV where you show an ad at the beginning and end of the episode. Really the only thing I don't like about this show. Heh, with games coming out every year and dying a week later, you have to pull a miracle to have an active playerbase for over 10 years.

Can't get a feel of what this game is like. Is it a classic MMORPG with a bird's-eye angle and mouse as the main controller? Is it a third-person view MMORPG where you can control the entire character and direct attacks yourself? Or is it a FPS cause I saw something similar to OW when the girl was playing. Or maybe all of them.

叶秋大神.....好帅哦 ♡______♡ 好喜欢他斯文安静稳重的态度 笑起来好可爱( ˘ ³˘)♥︎

And Mucheng is so pretty! I really liked the voice acting, especially YX’s. Loving the character designs too, especially YX’s( ˘ ³˘)♥︎( ˘ ³˘)♥︎

Just didn’t like the rendering of some of the art. And CG was pretty jarring.

i know they kind of talked about it but i don't get why he was so nonchalant about being forced off the team and into retirement for a year

at the cafe, it was pretty funny when he said he was ye qiu and the boss lady kept saying she was su mucheng

what does "OT" mean at the end there when the one player was trying to steal all the loot by letting the other players get killed?

The short flashback was intriguing. I am waiting for the MC's past reveal.
Otherwise, the start is pretty standard - the cool-looking overpowered player.

I love the concept of this anime. No VR headsets, no shitty unoriginal isekai involved, just plain modern gameplay of a game. The fact that they show the world with the persons eyes and keeps him in the real world, while also showcasing the world from the in-game characters eyes is a perfect synergy. It's like they achieved the most relatable form of a gaming based anime.

Of course, they built what seems like an overpowered main character, judging by his cool-headed and chill demeanor while possessing a huge amount of skill and knowledge. Although it's also very cool that they focused on the fact that it's because of his 10 years spent playing and his love for the game, which maybe cliche, I think is needed. Love for the game is what somebody needs the most for progress in it. Also, the fact that he kept giving his money to his friends that lost their jobs is a huge act, and really shows what kind of person he is. I also think the guy that got his account felt a bit of remorse after he got to know how he spent his well earned money, still he remains a total dickhead by all means in my book. The boss too, is the straight up personification of it's just good business, no morality whatsoever.

So far very into it, the plot is perfect, the main character is perfect and the setup of the other characters is perfect. Needless to say the game is also perfect. Looking forward to how everything progresses.
