Its just a bad show with its otaku pandering elements, but im used to MAL users who only rate show out of pure enjoyment, so nothing new here, move on. This level of stupidity and holier-than-thou attitude comments is something i'll never understand and detest, how the hell are you supposed to rate if not by enjoyment? |
| *goosebumps* No Season2 No Life :( |
 |
| Hope therell be a season 2, light humor drama will be sorely missed in an entire season of angsty shows. And the references are awesome, tho Reinhard will still be mad about his fleet of imperial battlecruisers getting destroyed by heartriding kemonomimis |
| Wth, I didnt even realize that was the last episode of this season. I've been more focused on what goes on in each episode, I can't wait for season 2. |
| Eh |
| 10/10 No complaints on this thing, yeah |
 |
| Cliffhanger ending lol ^^" Great way to end the series. With a bit of luck the second season won't have to wait too long. Although the story wasn't always perfect, this anime had the highest value of sheer enjoyment since TTGL for me, so 8,5/10. galimx said: I gave it a 4/10 and im being generous.

How else are you supposed to rate an anime? It's no Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu, but it isn't supposed to be. Base your score on what the anime is, not what you want it to be. R- said: Awesome, isn't it? |

| 9/10 lol one heck of a fun ride and hopefully we get a season 2 soon... |
zayan1992 said: Ok. Same analogy as beforeGreenDrag said: I'm not going to deny, that it was convenient. Especially from a time-saving aspect, which, as throughout the season, this show did way too often. However, you seem to ignore the werebeasts' standing. they are in no real position to make very high demands, because if they make a demand, that is asking for too much, the game will be refused, Evlen Garde, or Avant Heim would have either had a game with them, or their technological advancements would have been worn away, and bye-bye comfortable Information-Age lifestyle. (back to the hard middle-ages). So they decided not to push their luck with the bets (also, chances are, should Miko had said anything, that wouldn't have allowed a mutual coexistance, Sora would have refused rather swiftly, or forced a change to something he would have preferred. Still, the main point is, when someone is holding a gun to your head (from behind you), your first words won't be you demanding them to surrender. You will probably start pleading for your life. You fail to understand here that sora had given her two options. Either they both lose or they both win. Now according to your conditions, they both could have easily chosen the former option and that would suffice the pledges. Haters just want to create flaws where there are none and confuse others who love the show. Foxy lady: If I win I become your master and I become the emanity leader [ ] : If I win I become your master and I become the warbeast leader and the results were draw but, instead of agree on winning, what if she picked for both parties to lose So, now emanity and warbeast have no leader? and whose the servant? My point is, Draw is not an option It obsolete the rule Everything about [ ] is convenient So, They're great at gaming Does that make them who held gun for the first time have 120% precision? Does that make him able to toss a coin, has it landed and ricochet to the precise point where he wanted it to be? I wonder how often does he play coin toss IRL Does that make her able to predict where the enemy/allies will be at the exact mili second? What, is she a soothsayer now? Seriously, if not for the hype, fan-service and of course living up your fantasy where individuals valued by their gaming skills this anime won't be this highly rated it IS good (top 150 good) but has the potential to challange the top 10 no no no |

| 10/10 to this anime. I loved it from the beginning to the very end. This is one of the shows I had high hope for, after watching the first episode, and it lived upto all the hopes. I loved this ending episode too. The way they decoded the meaning of the 16 race pieces while expanding Elkia's territory and making it into the Eklia Federation. I'm really curious as to what the shrine priestess has to do with her having the ability to call the Old Deus. Really curious about what kind of games they play and what happened in the three volumes they skipped (Which is what I've heard). Can't help but look forward to another season. I hope a second season is green-lit soon :) |
| I love it, i just can't wait for him to have a bigger chalenge, he's pretty much controlled everything for the moment ! 8/10 for me, its really good. Hope season 2 is coming soon :p |
| "Blank never loses" - Sora Great! Elkia Federation is born! It's only a matter of time until Sora and Shiro conquer the world and defeat Tet. That cliffhanger, Miko is Exceed Rank #1? Just who is she? She looks like a threat. Maybe they're already making a second season? Still don't know. Though judging from the people who adore this series, they might make one. 9/10 This series was awesome. Seriously it is, but for me it wasn't that perfect. And besides, it's so overrated. :D |
| Style over substance, but damn was it stylish. 7/10. |
| Steph oh steph. All female characters losing pieces of clothing left and right. Bath scenes. i want more! Rikudo95 said: WOW the anime was really awesome! Waiting for season 2 >.> 10/10 for this anime By the way where can find the light novel? Ive only found the manga but it only has 7 chapter It is available at Baka Tsuki, don't think the LN is translated that far up though. |

| Intense episode. Second Season, Now please. |

Panaru said: Fuck yeah, is all I can say. But if there's no second season, there will be blood. Lots of it. ^That 1000 times God, that show was amazing |
| Second. Season. Now. Wow what a game. Didn't expect Steph would be the one to save the day. Too bad we didn't see much of Jibril fighting. Izuna and Shiro bath scene was so cute. Lol at Sora taking a picture of Miko the "Golden Fox". So they went with a cliffhanger ending huh? If only Baka Tsuki is finished translating the novel. |
 |
| Second season when!?! This was definitely the best show of the season! 10/10 |
 |
| the best anime on it's season 11/10 |
| "If you trip while running down a hallway, you will got nosebleed. If you trip in life, you cry" Minori Kushieda "This world is merciless, and it's also beautiful" Mikasa Ackerman "A lesson without pain is meaningless" Edward Elric |
| That was a fun ride, hoping we'll get more. Really enjoyed this series. |

| Great anime. This had a lot of what I love mixed into one show, all while having a great and engaging plot. For this show to have the ecchi it does while also pleasing fans that don't like it, it shows how great the show is. It's fun for everyone! 10/10 |
 |
| Boom. Just one ep and they conquered the entire Eastern Federation. 『 』 Steph ftw. Dat delicious bath scene with Izuna-tan >///< Best scene is the whole show was definitely during the Materialization Shiritori. Seeing many comments expressing doubts about S2 based on that ending... but still hoping for one though. Really loved seeing all the games in the show though 『 』 is seriously too OP but that's what makes it nice IMO. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| lol this show made it to the top 20 :) |
| Yesterday it was 8.82, today it is 8.86. Rank 18th and rising, may even hit top 15. With those stats and this ending a season 2 should be quite guaranteed. At least I'll keep telling myself that. I think I'll call this my new favorite anime, I enjoyed every second of it. Really hoping for a ton of new seasons with a rather slow pace while they defeat all the other exceeds, but I'm guessing they'll just fast-forward to Tet. As long as it's close to as entertaining as S1 I won't really mind either way. |

| Loved the series. A perfect mix of fun with seriousness. Entertaining characters, eye candy, brilliant pacing, amazing soundtrack, cleverly used sound effects. Entertainment in spades. 可愛いは正義だ！ セカンドシーズンがほしいです! |
| I don't really know, I just didn't enjoy this to the level most others seemed to do. The resolutions for some of the games despite the games themselves being fun just seemed so contrived. I mean the coin toss one when it landed on it's side in-between the pavings slabs/tiles. Uwotm8?! Admittedly though I did have fun with it here and there so I'd probably end up watching a S2 should it happen. |

It could have an influence on how the licensing company approaches promoting the R1 release. |
| That was great! Season 2 or riot :) |
| Bad episode, not enough boobs and sex jokes. overall 7/10 it felt like watching Yu-Gi-Oh! except without the cards. |
| Solid series with some great ideas, excellent animation and likable characters. NGNL had a great blend of everything which made it so good. I will give this series a 9/10 for now but possibly bump it up to a 10 after a rewatch in the future. Season 2 better be coming. |

| woot great series get an 8 from me XD |

| The predictions were on Light Yagami level for this one. |
Rawrdaysgoby said: This may not be something important but I was one of the few like 10 people that picked that this anime will reach rank 10-19. At it's peak all the way to the end. :P I did to, but then I understand how things work when hype levels are through the roof in a community while other people were thinking about irrelevant factors. This stopped being about the actual show itself weeks ago and more what it means to be part of the community experience. I know how important it is in particular that this show attain as high as ranking as possible for its audience since it seems desperate to be as acknowledged as possible. I also wouldn't doubt if some people think its ranking going into the top 10 on MAL increases its chances of getting another season. |

Yeah, I completely get why people like the whole "fuck it just go with" sort of attitude though, I'm often the same when it comes to most things; in a way it's what the medium is there for, but my thinking throughout this series in particular was based on the fact that the series revolves around a gaming world and the games in them, I wasn't really expecting them to be worked out quite like some of them did and it didn't really sit right with me I suppose. Absolutely one thing that I have to agree is how it looked. Took a bit to get used to how outrageously pink it was (not entirely used to that from Madhouse from what I've seen lol) but everything was well animated and stuff. As for the fanservice..It didn't really bother me. To be honest I think much of how people perceive fanservice in general might be based on the viewers age and how they see it. For example I'm 17 & barely an adult so I don't really take any particular exception since people on screen being sexualised are roughly the same age as me if not older (Shiro in this show being a blatant exception lmfao) and I don't really consider it to be weird or anything. If I were 25-30 or something maybe I'd think much differently, but I can't really speak for everyone on that one. There will be people of all ages who don't care and people who utterly despite it and understandably so. |

You forgot that the Japanese and western community are 2 different communties. if you want to know how well a series is doing, check the LN sales(NGNL had the biggest LN anime boost that we know off), and the anime BD sales(next week)/estimates(rankster.com) |

I also wouldn't doubt if some people think its ranking going into the top 10 on MAL increases its chances of getting another season. Well if what you say is true, then why NGNL in particular? Why not Isshukan Friends, Chaika, or Black Bullet? Or maybe even Mahouka, despite how popular it was to begin with? Any single one of those series could've been everyone's baby, if trying to get the show acknowledged was the goal. That NGNL was singled out means there's something at work here. I wouldn't know, I haven't really watched any of those shows aside from Mahouka, I just know they're the ones that the average fan will even consider. My best guess would be it's more colorful than all of them and more in your face in trying to show how cool it is. It just wants your attention more than any of those shows seem to and works pretty much every otaku pandering trick in the book on top of Madhouse is good enough on production to make sure it gets it. It's pretty much hyper concentrated LN material that throws everything in the typical LN checklist into the mix but the kitchen sink that's polished as best it can be the studio producing the adaptation. Again best guess cause I'm so far from losing my shit over this show the way MAL is and can only use theories and behavioral analysis of the fan type it attracts to try to explain it. It hit the top 10 on the MAL series top tv anime list. Granted it's only for tv anime, but GOODNESS SAKES, even I'm shocked at how crazy this is getting. I'm not. |
