No Game No Life (light novel)
SolviteSekai said: Because a season that has 3 of the best selling light novels ever adapted into anime, and also comes with the restart of Fairy Tail (one of the most popular manga in Jump, is a bad season. Just letting you know that Fairy Tail isn't a Jump title. |

| because it's good why else |
| the novels is quite good maybe ill go reread it also the hype is real ep 1 was quite executed well considering it did good job introducing the world |
| Just wait until you get to Jibril. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| I think it appeals to gamers and the loners alike that leave a natural appeal to people like us. |

| I like these sort of themes :) I'm sure most who like SAO will like this :D |

The 'trapped in another world' plot device has been around for a long time now. The world of SAO is one big digital world whereas Disboard is also an alternate universe where they play real games. |
nrtashi said: If they are hikki, why are they so socially competent? Let the 2nd episode explain that. |
| "There is no sorrow if you are prepared" |
nrtashi said: If they are hikki, why are they so socially competent? Shiro is a hiki. Sora is a NEET. Hiki=/=Neet. Sora's 'communication disorder' is that he's a sociopath. He's able to easily read people and says things that pisses them off as shown in his conversation with the inn keeper. |
| Sora comes up with the craziest ways to win fixed games in the Light Novel. They are both funny, perverted and crazy. I don't want to spoil anything rofl so those are the boarder ideas xD |
 |
| I have not actually read neither the manga or LN. However, I can say my opinion on it. To me, I started loving this anime because I can relate to how difficult reality is and how it would be much easier to live life if everyone were to live under a concrete set of rules. Sure,there is the Bills, Charters, Ten Commandments and other such things, but not everyone's willing to follow it. So, I like to imagine how life would be like if it were like where Sora and Shiro are now. Also, I like Sora's manipulative and sarcastic personality. And Shiro's so cute!! ;3 On a side note, Madhouse is a good studio. |

| Ive got a question to people familiar with the novel/manga..this series is not classed as harem in the tags but is it ..? i dont think i can bare other girls trying to get inbetween the siblings ;; |
 |
| I like this so far, except the over the top obligatory fanserviced kuudere, ugh. |

Dora sort of likes him but she's pretty much a public kicking pole as she's constantly being bullied. Jibril is more or less a perv so that doesn't count. I'm not too sure about Izuna but I think that she's more or less clueless. |

I am disliking the MCs due to them being OP and perfect but the art is amazing! ...and beings like Jibril are pure hax, just how were they fought? - Sora's thoughts on the times before the ten Oaths (Vol.2 Chpt.3) Yeah, she's kind of broken, however... LORE SPOILERS AHEAD But what makes her liked by the readers is the game they have with her, and her personality. |
| Here's a couple of reasons why. It involves in actual games, not just some VRMMORPG(Don't get me wrong, I liked SAO). It's pretty rare to see a badass protagonist these days like Sora and Tatsuya Shiba. One word: Lolis(people really go apeshit on these ones) Games. |
Hikigaya Hachiman said: Hardwork betrays none, but dreams betray many. |
| Tbh I watch cause the color palette is GORGEOUS. And some of the games played are cool too, I guess. |
 |
| I really don't know. It just seems like a Yu Gi Oh rip off ( Yu Gi Oh before Duel Monsters was all about playing different games with a twist). |
 |
| It's popular in part because the concept of game immersion so enticing. Also, the characters aren't sniveling little shits or bland, soul-less morons. Finally, it's funny as hell, and more than a little clever. Instead of relying on characters who trip over nothing and have vaginas land on their face because lol-powertip-daydream scenarios, the ecchi comedy is served in appropriate doses, is actually funny, and has a sarcastic undertone that makes fun of ecchi comedy. The non-ecchi comedy is even funnier, with jabs at bishounen-ification and even a reference to Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. tl;dr It's interesting, it's exciting, and it's laugh-out-loud funny. |

| Having seen all 3 episodes I find the sheer intensity of the positive response on this shoe kind of fascinating. Its nothing I haven't really seen before and it doesn't really make the most of its premise though the production values are good. My guess is it wasn't really hyped at all and is good....ish...I guess? That's really all I can offer |
| This show is awesome! I like it so much. It's just getting better and better. I didn't even know the series was getting a lot of hype. I thought mahouka was the hype anime. Well the series is good and that's why it's getting a lot of Hype! |

| Because it is the most blatant glorification people can get and people like being glorified for no reason. Aeonenleben said: Benevolance said: Because the spring season this year is pretty terrible and this show is actually better than most of the other shows. ahahaha. This is so true It's not like this Spring is one of the best season in years with Mushishi, Jojo, Ping Pong, Sidonia, etc. Then again, if you think this is good then it is pointless to even argue with you guys about it. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
pipeds said: But episode 3 proves that this anime is anything but for someone who like/play chess D=For those people justifying this is for gamers... yes it is for gamers, at least for poker guys, chess guys and those kind of things. The games are not like in MMORPG or anything like that. |
 |
| It has fan service, games and funny colours served with 'artistic' (questionable) animation, so naturally every little hipster is all over it. In reality, it's slightly above average. Lots of production value that's all. Why Sidonia didn't get these values is beyond me. |
 |
| I actually like it a little more than SAO and I love SAO a lot :D hope this series has at least 2 seasons because 12 episodes for the current season is too short for me :D |
|
Where have you seen this before? Please tell me, I really want to know. I really have to say I don't think you get what is going on, I know you think otherwise, but really nothing you have said has made me think you get this show. That's Kaioshin_Sama being Kaioshin_Sama. Nothing to see there. Because it is the most blatant glorification people can get and people like being glorified for no reason. What kind of masochist wouldn't want to be glorified for no reason? :P |
 |
| Hype for our angel Jibril. |
| Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
Orix said: What kind of masochist wouldn't want to be glorified for no reason? :P Is it too much to ask for a logical and somewhat well-told story? I do not want masterpieces every single damn time, I just want more anime that actually do not insult my intelligence by saying "I praise you and your lifestyle even though we all know this is laughable, will you like me now?!" Stuff like Gingitsune, for example. That simple, straight forward, mediocre and totally fine with me. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Its really simple....the anime shows a world that any gamer would enjoy. We as in gamers ,identify with the protagonist, I think most of the gamers would love to be in his place. Being in a game world with your little sister and new big boobs chick that must fall in love with you while you are battling for the position of a king of a country, thats something perfect, at least for me. Also the anime is funny and very interesting at the same time , so why wouldnt be popular? |

Hell, he hasn't dropped Kenzen Robo Daimidaler yet so I doubt it's simply a matter of him liking otaku pandering shows. |

How about you look through his anime list instead of just his favorites? He gave Kill la Kill and Panty and Stocking 8's and you sure as hell aren't gonna tell me those aren't otaku pandering. |
CheesekaoApr 25, 2014 7:53 AM
Well, I can't really speak for him as I'm not him, but I'd say Kill la kill is still a much more respectable entry to the anime hall of fame, compared to this. |

Well opinions are nice aren't they? I respectfully disagree with you as I put Kill la Kill on the same level as Highschool DxD. |
cupc said: Hey look so did I. My point is it seems that his problem isn't simply that he doesn't like otaku pandering shows as a whole. He dislikes a specific subset of that and I'm not gonna tell him he's wrong but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't annoyed by his condescension of people who likes that subset of shows. I dislike plenty of shows but I don't go around being a dick when expressing my dislike of them. |

I can see your point, but even if KlK has loads of fan service and I didn't like it, I still commend it for trying to be something else than a couple of nerds trapped in a a virtual world. |
