| This feels like a Silver Link anime if there was ever to be called one. Not to say that is bad, but it’s very simple VRMMO story, with cute characters and bright and colorful animation. I do like that it basically makes the best tank girl though. It’s fine and it’s basically gonna be my Kenja No Mago. Nothing overly special but fine for background noise. |
It really do be like that though. |
| Definitely one of the better first episodes so far this season, I'm already hooked |
 |
| I like the concept of this anime. The main girl is cute too. And the game/world has a great fantasy looking feeling. I think this'll be an entertaining watch. |
 plz @ me |
| I couldn't stop hearing Shirou in Kuromu and Neptune from Maple(why do they sound so familiar while having different seiyuu wtf!?). As for the episode, it was pretty much the same as the manga, I enjoyed it hopefully it stays the same tone all throughout the anime(so no serious plot please). From the opening too it's gonna go way farther than the manga but only 14 chapter got scanlated so I'm not surprised. I'm really looking forward to see if all these characters in the opening are going to make this serie enjoyable or bring it down! ttcchen said: thats pretty interesting wow defeating a boss in a dungeon on ur second day of playing?? i bet the game designer is crying right now lol This is actually happens in the manga later in so hopefully they adapt it (and since it will go farther, hopefully it will happens more often!) |

| I must be only one who disliked it, main girl is supposed to be cute, but, she is more bratty and bully to me, and way she became overpowered was so stupid. Drop from me. |
| Looks fun so far, but no one would be so nice on internet forums in real life |
 |
| wish it was this easy to level up in games lul |
 |
| Was fun and a nice break from the all of the similar themed shows that need to have some kind of life or death risk in their VR game instead of just having a game they can just enjoy. Eating the hydra was a pretty dumb though. Also while I'm enjoying the community chat bits, I also found it funny as someone whose pretty much always using some kind of message board/forum/etc for games. The online gaming community is no where near that nice. Lol. |
| it doesn't make sense but it was fun to watch something simple..... |
“You can always die. It's living that takes real courage." - Himura Kenshin” . |
| lmao I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. |
| Yay, i found the Noukin of the season :D |
| A VRMMO huh. Catchy OP though that showed well the number of characters that will be featured. Given her defence was set so high its no wonder agility will be affected. Still its amusing seeing the rabbit try its best to break through her defence. Still her defence sure made her take some rather risky moves while in the wild. Its nice that Maple was able to meet some new friends on her second day. Playing a MMO is always better with friends. Though challenging a dungeon solo sure was rather foolish of her. Hilarious in how she managed to defeat the boss by biting chunks off him. Still thats some nice gear that she managed to find in the dungeon that managed to boost her defence substantially. Overall an interesting first ep that while managing to introduce Maple and first of the supporting cast well enough also managed to show just how powerful her defence will be in the upcoming battles. From the interactions seems this series will aim for a more relaxed take on the genre though i do hope there will be challenges that forces Maple to team up with others. Other than that Maples naive nature sure is synthesising well with her seiyuu. |

| OMG SHE'S SOOO CUTE!!!!! I already knew before I even started this anime season that Maple would be best girl of the season but she's even better than I expected!! SHE'S SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly love this series so much already. The very first time I played D&D I played a Shielder so I can resonate with this series so much. Having no attacks stuff, just a shield and absolute defense. Im gonna love every episode of this series to the max. Maple is best girl of the season, period. This is the first anime Ive started of the season but I know for a fact that Maple is my best girl. Love her so much. SHE ATE THE DRAGON WHILE LOOKING CUTE AF!!!!! Interesting that an MMO has immunity though lol. This basically reminds me of Cautious Hero from last season in the way it focuses on one quirk and I love it. Cautious Hero was about the Hero being SUPER cautious and this is about the girl just putting absolutely everything into defense. Names speak for themselves lol. I love every time she gets new points and she immedietly is like "I'll put these into Vitality." No hesitation XD. Also love how she says it in english to make it even cuter. Cant stop gushing over her. |

| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| I really enjoyed that. I am definitely sticking with it. |
| One of the anime's I have been looking forward to watching the most this season. Wow she is like a super Metapod, it was pretty funny watching her against those monsters, just stand there all day, gain lots of bonuses and eventually win, quite the way to make a strong character. I'm surprised she didn't put anything into her speed considering she talked a lot about being so slow at the beginning or her adventure. Wow again watching her eat that enormous hydra, and she gets skills and attacks from it just like Risa is going to get a big shock when she finally logs in and sees how powerful Maple has become. |

| This is stupid, this series has the worst aspects of previous works such as SAO, Arifureta an extremely OP character with hacks which gets everything easy. But instead of receiving the same criticized instead everyone praises and likes him. F*ck you Mapple F*ck. |
| This was hilarious! I love anime like this wherein you can just watch, relax and have fun. By the way, what does the "Giant Killing" skill do? I couldn't read all of the kanji. Thanks! |
| Moe asf, not that I'm complaining. An enjoyable episode to kick it off |
 |
| I wish she had more difficulties but i guess it's the comedy side of the anime, that was very pleasant to watch hope it stays this way |
| This was pretty silly, but damn I enjoyed it! Maple (or Kaede) is pretty cute and I love how cheerful she is. With her vitality so high, she won't feel any pain... I just hope that this whole vitality thing won't become old very quickly. Pretty solid start! Eating that Hydra though... lol Pretty insane XD LukesYGO_WSonYT said: One of the anime's I have been looking forward to watching the most this season.

Exactly what I thought of as well, however we don't have to deal with a bad CGI dragon with mutiple heads this time around... |

| The VR World looks nice, with cute creatures and very colorful. The protagonist seems so be funny and friendly, she's a nice girl that doesn't know much about VR games, but she's doing her best. She will become like the best defensive user inside the game, probably she won't use any sword to fight, instead she'll use her shield, that's original. I wasn't expected she will bite the dragon to death lol. 96/100 |
 |
| So Arifureta, Shield Hero, and SAO had a threeway? I'll watch it because it seems halfway decent, but I wouldn't be surprised if I dropped it halfway through. |

Lulz issou, go learn what his a good anime and why Arifureta is criticized when you can't compared them not even a little bit, anyone with a little understanding of story can see this at the first 5 min First of all it's not a Isekai, it's a game litterally, they not even trapped in it Second of all she never hack whatever, just max out her defense Third of all is a totally comic show that didn't take herself seriously, the anime just want to be moe and fun much people like to use that pretext that it is a "comedy" or it is "moe" and for that reason it cannot be criticized, but I am always impartial and I focus on content such as writing and if that at least it makes sense. But not, here the same error occurs with SAO, the author doesn't know the first thing about MMOs, the protagonist was the only one to break a massively popular multiplayer game which is absurd, the people grind magikarp to level 100 just to say that they did. But of course we're here for the jokes! The jokes about how the protagonist is a clueless invincible godling while traveling the world finding irony and references. Because that stone still has some blood left in it to squeeze out, apparently. |
| Well she sure seems more useful than Darkness at this job I'm questioning the game design of these skill acquisition mechanics though lol |
  |
| Can already tell this is gonna be the isekai people shit on this season whether it ends up being good or bad |
 |
| That was a great episode. I really want to watch the episode 2 right now, Let's hope they can keep the quality throughout the series. The first 3 episodes of "Watashi, Nouryoku wa Heikinchi de tte Itta yo ne!" were awesome, but the rest wasn't as good even though the anime was still fun. I'm only disappointed with Kuromu. He was not supposed to use a shield, but swords. He was born use and make swords...a world full of them. kamil88 said: I must be only one who disliked it, main girl is supposed to be cute, but, she is more bratty and bully to me, and way she became overpowered was so stupid.

I despise woke people. |
| RIP usagi-san lik if u cryed |
| i instantly love this, but also I had to lower the speed under 1.00 to read the chat log scenes... |
 |
| I wasn’t planning on watching this one but omg am I glad I did!!!! This was so cute and I’m really excited on how it will go. :) |
 |
| Cute girls doing cute things... Sold! |
| It was fine I guess. It's very much looking to be a generic isekai, but it was entertaining at the very least. Pros: + Solid art style + A few humorous moments Cons: - The mechanics of the game are undoubtedly broken. Seriously, poison immunity, in the early game? Allowing for that flexible of stat distribution? - Another case of seemingly overpowered MC I believe it's from her weapon(s), the short sword (possibly the shield as well?). I have played some RPGs where the weapon adds to base strength stats. |

| enjoyable first episode. She's purely a vit build... gain offense with poison from a dragon boss. That armor looks super strong too. looking forward to next week! |
| It's difficult to get over the facts that she hit level 2 off of a single enemy in the starting area, that vitality was not actually raising her HP (it remained a constant 40), she was earning skills after she used them, she got poison immunity that quickly, and she got what she claimed was a unique item off the first boss. It seemed chill though, which is nice. Hopefully we don't get some tonal whiplash in the next few episodes. |
| man my MMO soul is getting triggered so hard by this i didn't think their logic of following normal games rules/and design would be this bad even for the sake of comedy lol like if everyone can gain skills at the rate she is wouldn't every seasoned player be kinda OP? and at least in slime it took months ,shes only been playing for 2 days. all of this would be super big problems if it wasn't for the sake of CGDCT judging from the OP ,surprised to see some male characters and fake male saber never showing his face is a gag i can get behind. SHIELDER got her anime boys |
 |
| Oh my god i fucking love this show! |
