Not bad. I was entertained. I like this kind of art with soft lines and colours and the game world is very interesting.

My first impression of the main character is...he's a bit overpowered. It feels like he'll barely break a sweat winning any game.

I haven't read the source material so I guess it's a bit early to judge but he reminds me of Izayoi from Mondaiji, thankfully a bit less arrogant.
Now that I think about it, this show feels/is very similar to Mondaiji. Oh well, hopefully things won't go too smoothly for these characters.

It's like fantasy Kaiji without the struggling. Not bad, but not great.


uggh finally someone got the right comparison.

anyway this has got to be one of the better adaptation this season so far.

only complain firstly would be the art work, i got no problems with the BG since it capture the art style perfectly, the people on the other hand... the colours seems slightly muted most likely to the excessive use of gaussian blur, and i prefer the original sharp line of the artist western influence.

the pacing is some what off but i guess since they are craming 3 books into 1 cour i can't complain much, though i really wish they made it a 2 cour and goes up to vol 5.
i want to see the treatment of the vampires due to the commandments on screen damn it >_<

other then that its mostly minor things like the dialog of the gambler after his lost, shiro not next to him in the inn, stepth losing her clothes.

other then that the rest was pretty good, great BGM and OP, solid voice acting, and screenplay caught the feel of sora being and arse just right

all in all 8/10 can't wait for next week

There were more than 1 panty shots, i just didnt count, sorry. Im not buthurt, just giving out some food to you folks, so you can bite, like you did. And if you didnt realize there was a panty shot i dunno if we were watching the same anime, it will get even more ecchi in next episode, you can trust me on that. Most people high rated this because the anime is like a blowjob to gamers, all the fancy fantasy world, not the cruel reality. Most hardcore gamers like that dream. Anyway, im outta here. Talking 2much about a medicore anime its not my thing.

So you couldn't find a reply to my post? Figures.

Doing Panty shots from a 11 year old girl gives this anime higher score than ping pong the animation. Sad anime fans nowdays.


^Wut? Trolling?


? Nope, i just said the truth.


Nah, you just butthurt and want to provoke everyone who like this more than ping pong or maybe didn't even watch ping pong because it is not their genre.. Well, I think most people here didn't rate it high because of what you said anyway.. so, it is not the truth, simply that, and I didn't even realize there's a panty shot in this ep, good job noticing it..

No, no, no, we were watching the same show alright.. It only means the panty shots didn't make much impression for me as it did for you.. Thanks for the food, but I hope for main dish not some decoration on plate..

Btw, I'm not a gamer, The game I played only Football Manager and that's all, and I love this show or I love this first ep..

Edit: Btw, I don't have the problem with ecchi genre, In fact you can say, I'm watching this with fully-knowing of its ecchiness..

/wow/.
Giving this a 10 right off the bat.

The brother is just.. Unf yes. Perfect. Personality and design wise.
A loli that isn't loud, stupid, or annoying is also a blessing.

Just wowwoww I'm so excited, wish it was longer though

EDIT: Wish it wasn't Ecchi based. Blech. I can see this really taking away from the show as a whole, so it's really unfortunate they chose this route. However all I've seen so far are a few panty shots and a lady with bigs boobs. Which isn't that bad, maybe a little annoying but that's about it.

I found NGNL trough the manga, then I found about Baka Tsuki and started reading up to the latest translated LN chapter.

I was so happy to find out that it is getting an anime. I hopped that it would be adapted epicly and Madhouse didn't fail. While keeping to the LN as much as possible they used such great animation that I just had to watch it twice!

Hope the next one is as epic as this. Well I would watch it anyway since I'm so No Game No Life fan 4 life.

Geezus, the colour contrast in this show is WTF blinding.

Really liked the first episode. The siblings seem like they make for a great pair of protagonists for this genre and the premise sounds good.

"Stay in this fantasy world cause the real world is a shitty game." Oh, and cheating without getting caught is a must. Sounds like fun.

It's fucking ping pong, how interesting can that possibly be? Loli is far more entertaining.

Same premise, but the protagonists fight with their leet gaming skillz instead of their fists. I find this more interesting, to be honest. In Mondaiji the main guy just punched everything, kinda boring.

except when he didnt, which was 90% of the time.

he only participated in 2 fights, and only to face another opposing juggernaut while everyone else used their powers on other ways/opponents/etc. to clear the conditions the opposing team set.

Don't worry the game they play is different from people to people. After all the one who is challanged that get to choose the game and of course they will choose a game that give them an advantage.

I think you're misunderstanding the rule a bit. The challenged party is not the one who chooses the game but rather he has a say in the contents of the game, meaning that both parties have to agree to what game that they will be playing.

Let me explain this properly. While the "challenged" party has the rights to decide the contents of the game, the "challenger" can also decide the contents of the game.

Let's take episode one for example. Sora challenged the old hag to a game of poker. The old hag agrees. Sora is by default the challenger and yet he chose the contents of the game.

Extremely minor spoiler:


See? It goes both ways. It's impossible for there to be a rule that is one sided.

That's because Sora is good at psychological warfare. He make situation seems go to the other party favor so that they think chance of winning is high.

That was.. pretty good, it might just be one of my favorite Spring series if it continues to be awesome, which it probably will according to the LN readers. The ED was good as well, and KugiRie's voice acting as Teto. I didn't like the boob grabbing cliche shown in the preview though, the other red hair chick looks like an idiot, Sora even went out of his way to tell her about the opponent. ~.~ If Sora had won the poker game fair and square I would've disliked it, glad that he won by cheating, would've liked to know how he won the game. this is a tad bit overrated imo, but well you have Mirai Nikki in the top 200, so this is nothing in comparison.

It is sad that it is only going to last for a season.

Getting the Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo vibes from this anime. Possibly cos they're all OP.

Genius, hardcore gamer and a loli?! Shiro is pure awesomeness.

Still wonder how did all of them cheat. They only showed that one girl at the start but that's it. Either that or I must've missed something.
I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN
