| A battle against a green dragon...how fiting for a finale. There was no buildup towards this fight so I wasn't invested into it. And the most predictable outcome happend with Earth claiming the victory. This was just another generic episode of RPG elements and seems like the story had no direction in the end. Oh wel, I didn't expect much anyway. |
 |
| The Fairy Queen is fed up and she's gone ahead and put a hefty bounty on Earth. Emel, the Elder of the Green Dragons, pays a visit to Earth with the intention of having him prepare a meal. Earth, wanting to avoid any involvement with the Dragons, decides to flee. In response, the Fairy Queen issues an arrest warrant for Earth. Displeased with the Queen's tactics and the Dragons' haughty attitude, Earth defiantly breaches the castle walls and confronts Emel, the Green Dragon Elder, in a daring battle. Wow, talk about an overreaction and being a jerk to the Fairy Queen. Earth, despite being this supposed old man, is acting so damn childish. But hey, those NPCs are getting way too full of themselves. I kinda like that Earth is one of the few who's willing to stand up for themselves. Gotta say, for the standards of this anime, that animation in the dragon vs. Earth fight was surprisingly good. Sure, his reaction and pushing her away sucked, but it sort of makes sense with his whole wanting-to-be-left-alone logic. He's just that type of guy, you know? It might not be likable, but it's part of his character. He's been irritated by the ring and its consequences from the get-go, so why not take the chance to finally distance himself from it? As for VR/Video Game anime this season, I'd say save yourself the trouble and skip this one. Go watch Shangri-La Frontier or something instead. |

| Earth logging into the game...and getting hugged by the Fairy Queen to throw a whip on her, only to get chased by both the green dragon elder Emer and the Fairy Queen. But going as far as to put him on the warrant list to force him to cook for them, he literately had enough of her antics, forcing her to take off the ring. As is with Emer, a duel is the only appropriate way to handle such dignity that's otherwise backed by arrogance. And as strong powers from each emanate the strength of their abilities, Earth is forced to sacrifice his strong bow to ensure powerful attacks at the sacrifice of his own life, even with the Fairy Queen's powers through the ring given to him. Even the game's developers were surprised by this as Earth willingly sacrificed his life, to which he then gets revived by one of the dragons, commending him for taking down the green dragon elder, which has been the bane of the dragons' problems passed onto the Fairy Queen with threats. To that extent, the red dragon offering Earth massive rewards for both his cuisine and taking the problem dragon down, it's worth it for all this trouble. Pikasha transporting Earth back to the Fairy Kingdom, to then the latter facing the Queen who caught his wrath trying to understand the entire situation, which he wants the ring to be sealed so as not to be seen as someone given the special treatment. With that, Earth's duty in the Fairy Kingdom is done, and he can finally go on his own silent, uninterrupted adventure. Truth be told, this show sucks on all levels, of which boredom is the least of its problems. |

| The moments between Earth and Fairy Queen were the most enjoyable in this series and they ended their relationship like that!!? come on..... |

| A resounding “meh” series. Still got some subjective amusement out it.  |
| Really average final episode that didn't really mean much and with it hinting at the end that we might get a second season it probably means we will get more of the same |
| This episode was so "meh" that it made the rest of the anime look "okay". There was no point to anything that happened in the episode. |
 |
| So glad this shit is over, might be the worst fantasy/gaming anime I have ever watched. Comfortably one of the worst final episodes as well. Earth was a pathetic clown MC like no other, good lord, it was tiresome to watch his daily antics in the game. To think he was supposed to be some middle aged dude lol, made it even worse. It was either incredibly boring melodrama or incredible boring gameplay. 2/10. |
| Even if quality is kind of meh I did enjoy it |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| well that was something i guess makes me think i can watch as many new trash isekai animation as long as the tiltle good and it sounds good on paper but lets not talk about the execution all in all a very average show found nothing extremly bad but nothing stood out |
 |
| Okayish anime.... To be honest though I kinda feel like Earth is an asshole. Even if its all AI and what not, hes a real dick and assumes things to quick |
| That dragon ate some nerfed up juices. Pikasha seems to be the best character out there. That birdie is cute. But holy hell Earths damn shoes looks absolutely ridiculous. I cringed every time I saw them. Quite a mediocre series. Something to watch at least when you're bored. |
| "You only realize the real value of something you discarded when you get the chance to pick it up again." - Rudeus Greyrat |
| As far as stock main characters go, Earth has to have the most punchable face I've seen in anime for quite some time. I think it might be the ridiculous hair and the annoying VA work from Ishikawa playing a huge part as well. His unlikeable personality is just the tip of the iceberg. |
| I can't get mad at the show, the show itself said that this wasn't going to be a grand adventure or about someone interesting so it warned us but it was still meh, I kept wishing the show was about an actual fantasy world instead of it just being a game, it kills any stakes and not just that but Earth wasn't just a what ever dude he was instead annoying, ungrateful and unlikable, it really should have been about Zwei, Milly, Fairy Queen, Ryuu-chan and their adventures. That letter at the end better not be a S2 tease, there are so many better or heck even worse shows that deserve a second season more than of this forgettable show. |
| I understand Earth's will to not get involved, but I think he was cruel to Fairy Queen, he wouldn't even defeat Dragon without her powers. Also the way she shows her affection is hilarious (in a positive way) and sweet. Btw, those bounty posters were hilarious. 7/10 I would give 8 but the last episode ruined it. |

| I too found this episode unsatisfying. For Earth, I suppose it is fine. He gets what he wanted, to be left alone. I guess I can't wrap my head around that though because to me, the whole point of playing a game is escapism. I don't want to be left alone, I'd be bored without cool sh** happening. Just wandering about exploring the world on your own is fine and all, but the interesting unexpected bits are what make it fun. Sunraku is more the type of gamer I'd be, living for those unique scenarios :) I also cannot fathom being irritated by a hottie like Queen being all over me. He's so mean to her, yet she's devoted to him. When he said he wants her to do something, here I thought (stupidly I guess knowing Earth) that he was gonna be nice and do something for her like ask to take her to dinner or ask for a hug or something that would make her happy. A way of apologizing for being a dick earlier before he understood the situation. Sealing the ring is idiotic. Why take away potential advantages? Regardless of the state of the ring, she can still come to him of her own accord (though not as easily/quickly) so it's not like he is preventing her clinging to him. It just means he doesn't have the handy ability to summon her, and whatever else it was doing for him. Though I'm sure given his taking it this far that she'll lay off him. What a loss... dumbass. As a person who enjoys MMOs, I just can't understand his weird play style lol |
| It is an ok anime in a perspective of an anime fan, but for someone who's both a gamer and an anime fan. I would say its ok as well, i feel like watching an anime version of Let's play from youtube (with the game devs scene being added). yes there's alot of flaws especially the mechanics of the vrmmo. alot of things were also presented like how the devs wanting to nerf something but still has a consequence to those nerfs being placed on. Between this and the youtube let's play, i would watch this when i'm bored. |
| Well this was a surprising final episode, I didn’t think I’d ever see Earth get truly mad but he did and it was kinda awesome, he even went as far as demanding the Fairy Queen remove the ring lol, that’s savage. And the best part, he even kept his word and kicked that dragon’s ass, although he got his own ass kicked in the process he absolutely followed up on his threat, it was a good fight too for this show’s standards. And in the end, turns out Earth was actually doing a good thing by killing that dragon who was apparently threatening the Fairy Queen, got lucky I guess lol. And lastly, it was nice seeing him apologize to the Fairy Queen and finally tell her how he feels about the attention he’s getting, I know everyone loves her and probably didn’t like how she got treated, but personally I liked seeing Earth finally put his foot down, the lad just wants it chill lol, I get it. And that was the end, and wow it looks like a lot of folks did not like this show or the ending from both Crunchyroll and MAL lol, but I’m here to say that I completely disagree, I really liked this final episode and I personally liked this show quite a bit. Yeah it wasn’t anything that special, art and animation weren’t amazing by any means, but idk man, I personally found this to be a great show to chill to after a rough Monday, much like how Earth uses the game for a similar reason. My only real complaint is that I wish we could have seen Earth doing his own thing more, but of course the plot was focused on him getting attention he didn’t want which pretty much caused that to be something we didn’t get quite as often as I would have liked lol. And of course I want to mention everyone’s favorite girl of the show, the Fairy Queen, she really was a lot of fun despite her treatment in the final episode, but really she was the embodiment of the attention Earth didn’t want, so the ending made sense imo, but still she was a great part of the show. And lastly, both the OP and ED were good ones, but the ED was personally one of my favorites of the season, just such a cute and fun song, really love it. And I’m not exactly sure, but could that bit with Pikasha at the end be a hint at a Season 2? I personally would like to see that, I’ll be one of the few to say lol. |
| Frankly the way Earth has always treated the Fairy Queen throughout the series has always annoyed me, not even a brat would behave like this for 12 episodes, I don't understand the reason why he wants to seal the ring, given the fact that thanks to that ring he managed to get out of difficult situations multiple times and it could always be useful to him and with it he could stay in contact with the Fairy Queen, it just seems like he really can't stand her... the behaviour of a grumpy, sclerotic, exhausted middle-aged man who perhaps should change game and play something else lol... XD Overall an average anime but the MC and the ending episode for me are a -1 in the final vote |
| 1st finished anime of the season and first disappointment... great the anime was decent for the most part, but the way he treated the Queen (arguably the best part of the anime) was really shitty, even if for him she is just an npc in a game, in her world, she is her own person and i don't know... this episode was the worst of them all tbh... lol i'll rate this a 6 ... actually nvm, it's a 5 ... and i think i'm being generous... i've probably rated better stuff with 4 or less... if it gets a season 2... i might watch but without much expectations (mostly for Queen and Ryuu, who might not even appear lmfao) |

favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| It was an ok final episode, the battle with the ancient dragon qas just ok. There weren't any kind of development why the Green Dragon wanted to face Earth. At least he used the two abilities the Fairy Queen gave him. |
My candies:      |
| It's a nice wholesome story. I wanted more of this but sadly, it has ended. |
 |
| i can empathize with Earth's annoyance when he woke up and found wanted posters of himself plastered all over, and him snapping at Queen without so much as hearing her out first was also expected coz she has pushed his buttons way too damn much for him to be nice to her and let this "prank" go away. that green dragon elder got what he deserved; but i would've wanted to see the red dragon king rip him to pieces though, but Earth finished him off before dragon king can even rip elder green dragon's throat off lol And what was that paper Pikasha was carrying? I'm sure it's for Earth, does that mean there's a possible second season? hehe |

| Brock Lesnar would be proud of that German Suplex. |

| Milquetoast MC. Why wouldn't he receive the special treatment from the Queen NPC/AI? It's a videogame, man... What a clown. |
In sterquiliniis invenitur. |
| What a pitiful anime 4/10 |
| Why nerf yourself at the end? That was so fucking stupid... |
 |
| Watched till the end, gotta say that it becomes a point of "if you do the samething, get the same results" gets 200% validation when it only needed well 100%. It's kinda a hard for me to break it down into a pros and cons column when I feel the time is spent better elsewhere. TL;DR if you made it here, yea I am just as confused as you are with an over seasoned "how did we get here" feeling as much as you. |
