| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Haha, he got labelled as the toughest boss in GLORY. One and a half years before we get to see him back in competitive play... wonder how many seasons that is going to be. He seems to have absolute trust in Mucheng. I wonder where we'll go from here - To be honest I'm no longer as hyped as I was from when I was the initial episodes. I really wish we could see more character development + more direction in the story rather than seeing him demolish the top guilds who I don't really care about and confirming how OP he is every other episode. Maybe I'm being too impatient because e-sports was the main factor I picked up this anime, I wanted to see team drama, portrayal of the life of pro gamers etc. reflective of the real e-sports environment but since episode 1 we never really had that unfortunately. Huang Shaotian also asks the question I've been wanting to ask - if he's really so damn good, why the hell did Team Jia Shi drop him, especially considering from these episodes that he is still heads and tails above everyone? Is it because of the fact that he is toxic/doesn't get long with the team? (I can see that the current vice-captain really disliked him) [EDIT: Nevermind, question was answered in the FAQ in the other thread in this sub-forum] |

| Nice PVP scenes. Nice introduction of those important characters. Wang Xi Jie is such a badass, Qiao Yi Fan and Gao Ying Jie are both very cute. The ep8 trailer looks awesome too, can't wait for next week, The God of Fight VS the Magician. |

We probably won't see that this season. Probably only when Ye Xiu is back in the esports competition, which is likely to be next season since this anime is planned to have 3 seasons in total (from what I've heard from the Chinese people). This season is just the buildup. I haven't watched the latest episode yet, so will edit things once I watched it. From the looks of it, it's going to be just as amazing :) We are still very far from Ye Xiu getting back to the pro scene (unless they are rushing it like hell, pro scene isn't easy to get into), but you would get to see all the pro teams next season or this season in the All-Star. Pros also tend to pop up here and there in the MMO, mostly to check up with Ye Xiu cause he is pretty important and their friend/pain in the ass. |

I hope we'll have All-star this season. Seeing how they rush all, it could be possible? I want see this time with YX animated. kekeke |

I want see this time with YX animated. kekeke I don't think rushing all star is a good idea, it is pretty much the official first look into everyone in the the pro league and needs to be given multiple episodes for it to work. All-Star 24 also have some VERY important arcs relating to all of the other pros. I personally would at least gave it 6-8 episodes, so most likely they would butcher it. |

louissnape said: Wang Jiexi's debut is SO MUCH HYPE !!! They did a pretty damn good job in this episode, eventhough they did skim through the pvp scene between Ye Xiu & Tiny Herb(Weicao) team members, but the way they introduce Wang Jiexi is actually more powerful than the novel imo. I somehow felt the anime!Wang is more badass and likable than he already did in the book. Silly MCD ads is silly. I really despite how they tease us Zhou Zekai yet purely use him to advertise their ice-cream. Plus from what i heard, that scene was suppose to be in after credit, they move it before ED since MCD believe ppl will ignore their ads if it was place after the ED. So instead of the epic Wang Jiexi, the episode end with that awkward ice-cream.//roll eye Zhou ZeKai is definitely the Number 1 face of league, lol. Kind of bad they introduced him so early, he doesn't really get to play until the All-Star. |

| Just end the episode... Really sad that they change the way Tiny Herb and Ye Xiu met... That's really rushed >< Too much details forgot :s Still happy to see Yifan. He is a such cutie. Too bad that his team doesn't see his potential and just bury him. ap1001 said: I don't think rushing all star is a good idea, it is pretty much the official first look into everyone in the the pro league and needs to be given multiple episodes for it to work.

I wish they don't rush it too... But they rushed so many thing that I wouln't be surprise. At the end, the best would be that people who came to love this anime go read the novel to really enjoy the story. |
| Decent fight scenes. Lots of McDonalds advertising; is McDonalds a thing in China now? Last time I checked it was all about dat KFC. |

KFC dominates the Chinese fast food market, that why McDonalds is so desperate. Ah, kinda figured. That was some pretty blatant advertising; probably paid some big $ (rather, RMB) for it. |

| Haha a player gets labeled a party boss? Now he has an entire guild after him apart from relentless farming. Wonder how he's gonna manage his weapon upgrades. |
 |
| Qiao Yifan is so damn precious! Wang jiexi is pretty cool! Can't wait for the all star event but at the same time I don't want them to rush even more. Kinda cringing at the Macdo ad in there'd there. Completely ruins the atmosphere... Zhou zekai is hot though |

| Episode 8 trailer: Question to Novel readers: How many chapters did they jump since people have mentioned that the meeting with steamed bun shouldn't be happening now? |

Tyrel said: Episode 8 trailer: Question to Novel readers: How many chapters did they jump since people have mentioned that the meeting with steamed bun shouldn't be happening now? Probably they are rewriting the story so that Steam Bun shows up early and not change any other factors. Originally Steam Bun shows up during chapter 600, where YX's team is assembled and everyone meet up at Happy Internet Cafe in preparation for the Revival Tournament. Probably not going to change much, unless they are bringing Steam Bun along for All-Star 24, which is the only problem posing for this rewrite. |

| The PVP scenes were great. Ye Xiu got labelled as the toughest boss of Glory. Wang Jiexi and his team are after him. |

| sooooooooooooooooooooo good all the pros gonna invade the newest server |

Kinda felt the similar way. What got me interested in the series was its background setting & some depths we could see in ep#1. I'm never a fan of eSports, but this show may probably be the first one that involves the real lives of pro players rather than players getting tele-transported to the virtual world. In this respect, it's quite unique in its own way. I don't really mind the frequent in-game fights, but I do hope we can have more plots related to the eSports industry & the reality the players would face. Maybe there needs to be more build-ups for this to happen, idk. Back to this ep, McDonald's advertisement totally caught me off guard, lmao. Unlike some comments above, I actually like how it showed advertisement being an important part of sport industry just like what happens in real life. This also vaguely echoed what Ye Xiu said about how he's never profitable in the 1st ep. But what's the matter with dat slogan? Can it be even worse? Only pretty boy like Zhou Ze Kai could make it sound less awkward. |

Only pretty boy like Zhou Ze Kai could make it sound less awkward. Recommend reading the novel, it is a bit slow, cause the story builds a very firm foundation, it speeds up once it hits all-star. But before that it would need to introduce, Team Tyranny, Team Blue Rain and Team Tiny Herb first. All-Star starts on chap 300, which is where the story takes its first major turn, before chap 300 it is basically an intro for the main pro teams and how the gaming world (fans, clubs, guilds) function. |

| YeXiu vs 10 pro rookies interesting that they are re-arranging stuff by having Steamed Bun irl next episode |
| 2B or not 2B? |
| Yet another new character! I'm liking this one too, and it's a fullout war! Finally a real challenge. Thanks dear @warrioroftimes Nice preview, seems like shit is about to go down. Now I hope that I don't have to wait to long for the next episode. |

| Finally got to see the episode and my hunch was right about the words Tiny Herbs captain said with "Greatest boss in glory" and calling him Ye Qiu. Good episode. I loved the part when they're trying to Kill him in PvP action. |

IcySky said: I loved the ep, first pvp scene I enjoyed and also my favorite ep so far. Can someone tell me what light novel chapter ep 7 is? Chap 125, here is the link, they condensed it a bit, recommend reading the fight again to understand the tactics used. http://gravitytales.com/Novel/the-kings-avatar/tka-chapter-125 |

I loved the part when they're trying to Kill him in PvP action. I really like how he's waiting for Mucheng's contract to end before he starts his own team for them all to join....Whenever that happens, that shall be a HYPE day The Magician guy and his hype is really impressive too |

| Ahhh the design for WJX is so pretty I'm shocked. |
| Wang Jiexi is such a badass character and his introduction just so awesome. Did you guys notice that one of his eyes is large. Huang Shaotian wants to PK with Ye Xiu so this is a foreshadowing. |

| New record! nicely done. I loved that bit where Huang thought he was getting a handshake but instead was being asked to pay up. The strongest boss in history, I like that nickname. |
