| But his action don't work in strategy games. In strategy games it's stupid to declare war against everyone and especially when your resources are limited. |
| Sora wipes the floor with Kurimi and Kurimi cries after her loss xD That speech was godly, them shirts were also priceless. "I love humanity" xD Looks like we'll have to wait for Sora vs Tet. |
 |
| Holy shit, that speech was epic. Wow. |
| Yeah cool. |
| Well the speech was amazingly done I'd say. That was the one of the best part.. the chess match wasn't that nicely adapted. Anyway the anime had quite some holes for questions about the mechanics and what not about that world. Can't expect to go in depth like the light novel. Btw Steph is so funny lol. |
| A revolt it is! Red Queen can't be killed and the Black King is assassinated! "Don't underestimate humanity!" "Objection!" "Hold it!" Lol, Steph, so sexy in that outfit. Awesome, Sora plays Civ. "Accept that we are the weakest race, one that can become anything, because we were born with nothing." Sora makes pretty awesome speeches. Lol, he just declared war. But it was a smart move, to be honest. And the One True God Tet shares his motives. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| Awesome episode. |
| Lowering then increasing the people's morale ...GODLIKE SPEECH! Sora and Shiro just too awesome together. Dat maid Steph <3 Dayum he made Kurami cry ;-; I don't believe Tet is voiced by Rie Kugimiya o.O |

| That soundtrack which played during Sora's speech... so epic, I need that OST O_O And Tet is actually a pretty cool guy, I'm glad he's not an asshole like in most other anime ^^ |
| "How to Become the King of the Entire Human Race in a World You Are New to in Only 3 Days" by Sora and Shiro |
~my list
| I still don't get how they are going to save humanity or whatever and then challenge the god kid in just 12 episodes... |
| The end of the chess game was really good and that Sora is a really nice main character (though I think Shiro is pretty cute). |
| Haha, this is fucking great. It has everything I want to see. |
| Cool episode. Everything got handled nicely. Some new characters were foreshadowed I think. 8 episodes remaining 😭😭, why only 8 :'( Looking forward to episode 5! RMcD said: As well, the race piece is pretty dumb, 1) the rule isn't even clear on designated representatives, that is, the previous King designated this representative but how does that mean he speaks for literally every human out there? Are there no humans who identify more with elves? Why is there even a race piece doesn't that ingrain racism? What if I stand for half of the elves and half of the humans do I not get a piece? If me and my five mates delegate me for the pub quiz do I get a fancy magic piece? Lol |

| I was not ready for the this super intense game of chess after the intense game of rock-paper-scissors last episode |
| I really didn't like the episode. For one thing, I was always hoping this show would be more "clever" in how the games and such were overcome. With the chess game, it seemed more like an "emotional" kind of clever than a "smart" one. That's fine if you're looking for it, but to me, if games' rules could be broken like this on both sides, there isn't as much tenseness and I know that other games' rules can be broken similarly. Its also just uninteresting because its seems to be an asspull. I didn't think the speech was honestly that good. The whole "we are humans and weak, therefore we will defeat the enemy" didn't inspire me, nor did I find it funny. Then again, I never laughed once in this episode. The speech could have been an epic one of a comeback for humanity, but the weird phrasing and self-belittlement destroyed it for me. Then Tet. For a god, I felt no sense of awe nor any sort of depth that I'd want from that sort of character. He seemed very bland and a stereotypical childish character. I think I'm gonna drop this. This has never made me laugh afaik and its boring and disappointing to me. |
| I think I've definitely fallen for Sora :3 Is it just me, or did he really seemed hot when he said, "Don't underestimate humanity?" :3 I loved his speech <3 And hell yeah, let's conquer the world, shall we Blank? ^_^ |
| Great just great episode, maybe third episode was better but this one is also 5/5 maybe because what happened in second part of it. I feel great urge to play some mmorpg now! And I have no idea what should I choose? What I mean is that there is no game where emotions take first place in choosing between winning and losing?! Heck is there even place for emotions in games? Maybe the Sims if it would be online (read pvp)! :D Or I could play some strategy game such as Crusader Kings 2 or Civilization (Sora mentioned it). But it is nowhere close to this anime :( I wonder what happens next.. |
| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;) |
| Sigh, incest shit. Oh, so he promises us an amazing story. Sure kid, I totally believe you. 1/5 |
 |
| The speech and the "I love Humanity" t-shirt made this episode amazing |
| looking forward to watching the next episodes :3 |
| It's like that moment in Dynasty Warriors, Third force incoming XD the assassination was a nice play to end it as well. Liking this so much that I invested in the light novels. |

BeyondShoemaker said: I just realized that blank is such a stupid name. I think it's cool tbh. It's like Zero, which is also a cool name |
| so tet is the one telling the story? talking about the last few seconds of this ep... |
 |
| This episode is where this series completely fell apart for me. By the time Sora started his speech, I stopped having fun and it never came back. Well, at least it didn't take more than four episodes for me to realize that this is not my cup of tea. Well, at least the art was something to look at. |
| I hope Steph becomes more useful somehow, it seems her only purpose right now is to keep being shocked by Sora and Shiro's intelligence. And she keeps thinking the same thing over and over, "could they be the ones to save Elkia?" I think it's pretty obvious what Sora and Shiro are capable of, and at this point I can't believe she still panics over Sora's decisions and thinks he's wrong. She should learn soon that Sora knows what he's doing hahaha |

| Ah they did it again, this game is too hard |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I`m loving this show... don't know why i didn't watched it before! best siblings ever XD |
| Lol, I don't know why, but i really like this show. :DD It's like: fuck this, let's become gods. :D |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
Hmmf. The over-idealization of the main characters in the game, as well as their inability to be wrong despite only showing a narrow assessment of possibilities is quite annoying. The character development still hasn't struck me as amazing quite yet...and the plot is also very shallow and uninteresting...but as for graphics and general story progression, it's above average. Also, Sora's speeches were very well constructed from any perspective. So I'll give it that. But if I were to rate it right now, a 6/10 would be generous. Also, I found Stephanie's domineering position here pretty attractive. So there's that. |
 |
| Great episode:P Sora and Shiro are just amazing when they work together. From being a poor hobo into a powerful King and Queen, like wow. I really like this anime, I think I'll put it into my favourites aha :) |
| So the chess battle ends in an assassination huh :P Not to mention using his Civ knowledge to settle all sorts of domestic issues ... I guess coming from the human world gave them plenty of useful information to rule a kingdom XD Anyway seems like we've still got some unknown characters who haven't shown up yet, but they seem to have rallied the people under them. So first they have to conquer the world, and then it's time to challenge Tet for his title of God?! Oh boy ... not gonna lie that sounds a little farfetched to me, but I hope they don't rush the show too much since for that. I wouldn't mind having a pretty detailed look at world domination and forgetting about the "end goal" until later XD |
| Sora's charismatic personality makes it hard to believe that he was just a NEET and hikikomori in the real world... And it's a bit weird that Tet just randomly lost at online chess game, when he is god of a game world and all lolz. Still, idea to challenge the entire world to fight over the total domination sounds great, can't wait to meet cute girls people of other nations! |
  |
| At least in this world, Sora and Shiro experienced what royalty feels like. And how people look up and praise you. Unlike to the real world they live in where they shut themselves and live only through video games. |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| I guess now they're the Kings and Queens of this world. Haha. Congratulations, Sora and Shiro! Lmfao. Idk why, but I seriously can't stand Sora's attitude. Waaah. Jesus. I guess it'll take me to like him and his sister. Jesus. Help! Hahaha. He's such an asshole most of the time who thinks so highly of himself which one of the things that really grind my gears. Anyway, Clammy, stop crying. Haha. Wasn't expecting that. She's so cute. I guess they're gonna beat Tet the God soon. I can see it coming. Idk. Lol. |

| That was a quick climb to the top of their race, but just the start of the revolution against the others, hype! Sora and Shiro are terrifying equal in level, Steph went crazy in that scene xDDD |
 |
| another amazing speech of sora and the rule exploit to the ministers ... very good |
  |
| The game has ended, making Sora and Shiro the ruler of Imanity. Next objective? Rule the world and then become a god!!! I hope the story concludes everything smoothly until the end because this anime only got 12 episodes... That coronation though... A grade speech about accepting being the weakest and motivating everyone that they could be the number 1 once again! Pure exhilaration! |
  |
| Wow cheesy, boring, and ridiculous, really don't see what is the fuss with this anime. |
 |
| Meh, didn't like this ep as much as the previous ones: the ending to the chess match was a bit disappointing because I, honestly, didn't feel it involved strategy at all but the rest was good. Now I want to know more about Tet. |
 |
| Nice speech! Ballsy of them to declare war to the rest of the world, it just might pay off in the end. >_< Beat God in a game huh? Sure it's easy, like that dimension-and-universe-spanning final battle with Anti-spirals in Gurren Lagann where they throw entire superclusters of galaxies around as weapons! |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Why do people love this so much. It's extremely farfetched. After this episode I have no doubts left about how much I hate Sora. His babbling and always being perfect is totally unrelateable. Even in a fantasy world, would someone who was thrown in the deep end really become King after a matter of days based on a chess game that made no sense? I usually let things slide in anime but my BS radar is going crazy here. Hopefully there will be some twists and I can find a character that I actually like. |
