I don't feel like the anime was able to capture how smart the siblings actually are, at least in comparison to the LN.

Really liked the 1st ep! A bit less fanservice would be nice though...

Cute pair of siblings imo :D

One of the best first episodes of this season that I've seen. I LOVE the visuals and the colors. They remind me of Mondaiji-tachi. Also the strory seems interesting and I love the main characters already. They seem badass and I can't wait for more gaming. The OP is also really good. So far this has a lot potential to become one of my favorite spring shows.

Wow I am pretty amazed. I love the OP song. The graphics with its colours look great!
Seems like a very interesting plot. This show has a lot of potential so lets hope
that it won't disappoint us. So far this is definitely one of my favorite animes this season.
The MC's seem to shine in confidence and no wimpy MC's. A decent/okay design for
the MC's.

Stay tuned for the next episode =]

It's too early to actually say, but based off just the first episodes I've seen so far for the Spring season, this anime has the potential for being the best out of them.

That was damn good.

I have a feeling the god of that world is about to be really sorry he invited those siblings in. That's a hardcore duo, right there!

Looking forward to the next episode. I'm dying to find out why the young lady has shown up in front of their room clad in only a bed sheet.

Sora and Shiro remind me of Kirito and Asuna, with how well they can play a game, but Sora also reminds me of Lelouch Lamperouge with his deceptiveness

I've always... always been watching you... This whole time... Because you were there... That's why I was able to try hard. So you could have some balance! So you wouldn't treat me like a kid! So you would see me as an actual girl! Even while you were gone... You were right here! You were right here in my heart!

Not bad at all. Considering I didn't even ptw this one based off its synopsis and key visual I'm pleasantly surprised. Madhouse bringing out that Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi color palette.

Sora is actually a perfect role for Matsuoka Yoshitsugu.

Oh cool Matsuoka Yoshitsugu and Kayano Ai together again? I like it :) That was a pretty fun introductory episode, the colors were nice, they compliment the mediocre character designs. The piano in the OP was really pretty too. Wasn't sure if I wanted to watch this because of the ecchi tag but the story seems quite interesting and I'm liking the siblings so far.

This was a fucking beautiful first episode, thank you so much Madhouse!

Already loving the vibrant colors, the art is great. The OST is good too.

Shiro is so cute, loving how Kayano's voice is totally fitting for Shiro's character. So much loli-fanserivce. :3

Whoa, they did keep some great monologues from the LN, that's really nice. :D

Haha, Sora described the RL perfectly. XD "This world is just a crappy game." I agree.

That freefall in the air was awesome to see. :D Loved Shiro's calm expression while Sora was freaking out.

But damn, they already introduced Dora in just 12 minutes? It doesn't feel rushed but they sure are picking up with the pace.

The siblings are so friggin BA, already loving them more with this anime adaptation. ^^

Loving Shiro's "Nii" already. So adorable <3

Damn, two chapters of Volume 1 adapted already, I better read up the remaining translated chapters fast enough. O_o

5/5 for the episode. Loving it so much. ^^

More Dora fanservice next episode. :D

Whoa that was surprisingly good. Art is absolutely beautiful. This was definitely the best opening episode from this season for me, so far. Time flew by watching this.

It seems like a "game of the week" type of a show.

I FELT SO SERVICED by those girls, but whatever.

5/5 for this ep, 6/10 overall for now. Definitely will watch to the end.

Oh yeah definatly did not dissapoint me it was a great first episode.

Man it seems each year brings a whole new form animation is brought upon in each anime, this one is full blown gorgeous i hope madhouse keeps it up.

The brother sister pair are quiet an interesting group of characters not the usual type u see.

The Fanservice pls this is marked with ecchi of course its going to have fanservice and yet there are already people complaining ABOUT IT. well i like it a guilty pleasure lol :P

Hope this shows keeps and stick to the LN material looking forward to next week

A siscon NEET who is trapped in a game-based world, and whose seiyuu is Yoshitsugu Matsuoka. Reminds me of something...
At least, Tet is cute. And it's colorful.
Not so much of a good episode, but I hope it'll get better because the OP has a lot a cute characters.
Oh, and that lame fanserv at the end.

This looks very good so far, liked the first episode. The animation and visauls are beautiful, the colors are so vivid i love the world they are in. Beautiful to look at.

The protagonist so far is awesome thats one of the most important things because he will be on screen 95% of the time. Shiro is awesome too i love lolis and imoutos, she is so cute. Just adorable.

Looking forward to the next episode with a smile on my face.

This and Black Bullet are my favorite anime this season.

I don't get why people rate anime that they dropped. Then the stats are jumbled up with people who watched the whole series.
MAL should have a separate stats for people who finished the anime and people who didn't.
It's like all the people that rated Shinsekai Yori really low just because they couldn't take the Yaoi scene and dropped it..

Anyways, I love the two main characters and the creative potential that this series has. Really looking forward to how creative they can get with the games :)

1. Already love the characters. They're gamers just like the rest of us here in these forums.

2. "if you don't get caught cheating, it's fine"

3. Color are too bright it hurts the eyes. Can't watch this in the dark.

I like seeing the pair of sibling already. Shiro is so small >.< and she is cute too.
A world where winning games decides to outcome, I find this quite interesting.
The only thing though, it feels like they can't lose.
If not anything else, I should enjoy watching this.
