Jesus Christ, Sam's indie game getting terrible reviews. Also interesting that Marshall just happens to be her neighbor.

Seems this anime continues to show the difficulty life of an indie developer. Sam deserves better but it also paints a realistic look at how hard is to make it the gaming industry. Not going to lie, the drama is entertaining, especially at how real it does feel at times.

Best girl Monica has arrived! I'm a little disappointed in how the artstyle change has affected her especially. And with the art in general, but I'm getting used to it and still enjoying this throwback animated.

Decent episode, although I'm not sure how I feel about Samara missing all those chances to confront Marshall Law head-on about how he ruined both her life and her game. In situations like this, the longer you wait, the harder it becomes to say what you want to say.

Good thing this is anime not videogame so when I criticize it I don't have to worry about the author coming up at my door telling me I've been playing it in a wrong way.

Any game designer that blame people that playing the game in the wrong way won't have a place in gaming industry.

I can't be the only one that thinks about Tekken when they say Marshall Law.
Netflix have got to be one of the most incompetent services on the planet.

I must be watching this wrong because I find this pretty boring. I don't think it has any potential.

Also, two young girls running up to Marshall and asking to hug his sweaty half-naked body. Excuse me?! Does he want to end his career with a controversy like that?

Anyway, I had trouble finishing this episode because it just couldn't hold my attention so I am done with it.

I feel like this episode is much better than the first. Animation felt way nicer. The dialogue feels very off still, would definitely prefer a dub. But the voice acting itself is good, it’s just the script that feels off to me.

anime is slow and chill tbh i do like the vibes and the characters, marshal is a chill loving guy who plays games and rate them, idk but I'm excited to see the next eps

and the girl who faced Sam was either marshal's mom or sis idk why but i feel no way the writer will put a gf to Sam but i still don't know

Art style is still horrible, but this episode was ok.

Why would any influencer allow underage fans, as a matter of fact, any fan to hug them when they are half-naked and sweaty? That fucking weird.

If Sam was really pissed about how Marshmello reviewed the game, then she should just say it outright. I'm sick of her beating around the bush.

This episode felt very slice of life ish, I like that :)

Not sure about the romance part though, just because "Marshmallow" looks good and seems laid back, I guess Link (just realised it might be a nickname when writing it out ;) ) would be a much better choice l.

Marshall, this thing looks like more of an underwear than a short, so don't run in public like that!

Do men go for jogging half naked in public spaces in America!?
@Maou_heika Yeah, actually pretty often, at least in the beach towns where I grew up. And often they DON'T have a six-pack magazine bod.

@No_Comment_Plz Was wondering why the other characters were surprised seeing it. Would be a cultural shock for me if I saw someone running half naked ^^;

Liked it better than episode one. Still not amazing, but it's interesting enough to keep watching. For some reason the scenes in the cafe really annoy me though.

No way did he just grab a stranger's dog like that. I really don't like him. At least he apologized for that... And the way he talked about the game in his video... This anime is very annoying but I have to follow how this unfolds. I hope Marshmallow (lol) dude redeems himself. At least he should tell his fans not to do review bombing... he is an influential person and should take responsibility.

I'm glad Sam has supportive friends though. Also what a stupid cliffhanger, I can't wait to see his face when Sam tells him he played the game wrong. I hope she gets the chance to say it now, it's very annoying to wait
