I haven’t watched this and I want to know if it’s worth watching or if it’s just another clone.

It's not a clone, but was heavily inspired by it, being one of the first, even. It's often sold by fans as a What if of post-SAO.

Even if it interest you, i really wouldn't recommend you the Anime tho. The character designs are ugly and inconsistent, the Animation is average at best, and a lot of content is getting cutted. Go for the Manga or Light Novel instead. (The Manga suffer from pacing issues tho.)

not a manga reader , but wouldn't recommend either, at most it's average, it's more like SOA+Isekai, nothing noticeable. if you want to kill some thime, then go for it, it's just a money making anime.

I've enjoyed it so far... I can see some idea of sao, but it's more along the lines of In the land of leadale...

no, but I guess you could say that it's backstory was based on it. the new gate game was a death game like SAO was. I don't know if it's "worth" watching though, depends where the worth comes from when you watch things. it's an isekai with a way overpowered MC, like the guy is basically a god in this world, so if you don't like the idea of him just kinda mopping the floor with everything then you probably won't like it. it's nothing super special so I wouldn't expect any groundbreaking changes to the isekai formula.

it's gonna take you like 3 or 4 hours of your entire life to watch the entire thing so it's not like your losing anything by checking it out.

This anime is set in a game world, like many anime are, but that does not mean it is an “SAO clone”. Saying “SAO clone”, means that this anime is exactly the same as SAO, which is not the case, and there are no “SAO clones”.

Your question is just you hyper-focusing on “surface level similarities”, while ignoring all the differences that make each anime unique, especially since all anime take inspiration from each other.

The gameplay in this anime is not the same as SAO and everyone was able to leave the game, except this one player that beat the game.

He alone was stuck in this new game world where all the former NPCs became self-aware beings, it is possible that where he is now, is not the game anymore, but an actual real world.

I have enjoyed this anime so far, no complaints.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

How can you not disagree, when the definition of a clone is “an exact copy”, which does not describe this anime.

That is not logical.

This is not an argument, but a discussion between anime watchers.

I was looking forward to your response, but now I’m just bored.

Disappointing.

well here's my response. since Sao's release there are more and more anime involving games and getting trapped in games. you can say it's a source of inspiration which it is but there is nothing unique about the anime.

you probably know about overlord and I can say this anime is not much different than that as how the mc get trapped in the game a start a life there. you can also take the example of log horizon. and tbh this anime is not unique. it has an op mc which is a trend nowadays. but still the anime is neither much good nor much bad. the story Is good but not unique.

Like I said, you only see “surface level similarities”, you are incapable of acknowledging the differences between each anime that make them unique unto themselves.

Name another anime where the person who defeated the game got stuck in the world?

Honestly, I don’t know another anime like that.

you to got into a argument with him hha, has he is always like this bro, I also got into arguments with him many times in the past. he defends every anime he likes, not matter how trash it is or how good it is.

let me extend a hand, (ejleon) this anime is a mishmash of other animes ( just like how Tiktok/YouTube shots maker, are always coping the trends, and creating the same content, which so little difference, and some of their own creative,[ which could makeit better or worse] ). he stole death game formula from SAO, transported to an another world is a common copied trend, Isekai formula, the MC is OP as fuck is an another copied trend formal ( mostly Isekai, and the start was or popularized by SAO). the main theme is a copy of other anime.
by no means it's unique, it just a mishmash of general Isekai elements and SOA, and the author just finds ways to not make it obvious, by changing something or adding something. like most animes. so it's a failed clone.

what unique means, not changing little things in anime, while all main events are copied. unique means.
right now iam watching, that would be "Go! Go! Loser Ranger!" that is unique.

it's not a bad show, the story is... maybe equal to that of SAO the protagonist is more interesting than SAO, the side characters are nicer than SAO, the fight scenes are about equal to SAO.
take what you like from my post, I'm watching it because it's an easy to watch show where I don't have to put that much effort in to keep up so I can do other stuff while it's on.
