Somehow I've started to stay away from shounen ish anime little by little now (is it because I am getting old?) And would prefer shows that touch on rl stuff -


I've noticed the same thing, ate up shounen as a teen, but after getting out of the service and starting college things are just different now. After watching Re:Life and Sakura Quest I've really kindov woken up to how much older I am and it's kindov depressed me for months now... seems like only yesterday I was 19 watching Spice and Wolf for the first time, now I'm 25.

One of the main reasons I even chose to follow Net-Juu was because Moriko was a 30-year old protag. It's harder to relate to the eternally 16 High School kids found in most anime, and just 9 years ago I was in their shoes. Doesn't feel real sometimes.



Haha anime can come and go but we will always change
Except the exception that I had read ahead before I got this feeling
Now I am mostly searching for anime that can soothe and heal while giving me a relaxing feel

Enjoying this immensely. It's refreshing to have a show we're the protagonists are not in high school and have different problems and motivations

a romance that is targeted for female readers, but is enjoyable for male audiences, as well, usually will get its proper chance to shine in the community (not just MAL, whole anime community) later on in mid-late season.

and Netjuu no Susume, so far, has done well to keep the male audiences from dropping this. Great job.
Keep the plot developing at this steady pace, please.
Keep the interaction between the characters as well as it is, please.
Everything is perfect, right now. Hell, you even take time to do those metaphoric work force zombies - otaku heaven thing. Very lovely.

ps.: also Lily is really wao. Nice Nakagawa Kanon copy, not only visual design but also character design as an overall. Very moe.

Question:
Is the whole anime jumping back and forth between the MMO and the real world? Or is there a point in which the MMO gets put aside?

The former. MMO and RL parts switch back and forth.

Yeya net-juu no susume 😍
Little bit curious with the ending song , when yuta's part in office , i see morika's shiloutte ? Is it her ? Or just my imagination ?
Cant wait for the next episode 😍😍<3
And sorry for my bad english

It's not Morioka but a coworker who slightly resembles her.

I've been binge-reading the manga for the past week and enjoying it a bit too much xD
(I'll cry when I caught up since it's been on hiatus for two years...)

Regarding the episode:
The anime pacing felt weird to me even in Ep 1 when I didn't know the source and it got worse after reading.
But I still like seeing everyone animated and voiced and reading through this thread makes me think the pacing can't be that weird if so many people like the show, I'm glad ❤

So I can get roleplaying a guy but why does she lie about her age?

Not that sure if I'll finish this, not really 'getting' it, mostly because I've never really played RPGs I think

Okay, you guys have debunked all my arguments.
My only problem, is how in this anime, everyone gets along perfectly, online.


Former WoW player speaking, you more or less get along with guildies, even moreso if you have to spend 2-4 hours, 3-4 nights a week wiping possibly hundreds of times on a boss during progression. It's not that hard of a concept.

Ok, I'm hooked. I got major flashbacks to my early crunchyroll and maplestory days. So cute! I love how it's not taking itself seriously and the IRL moments aren't being pushed aside for the game.

Well I'm not skipping anything, but the IRL moments are by far my favorite parts currently, and upon rewatches I do indeed skip the MMO bits to get to the IRL stuff. Moriko is the life of this series so I want to see her, not her avatar.

My biggest fear so far is that the show just becomes a week-to-week grind of MMO moments spliced with IRL "encounters" between Yuuta and Moriko that lead nowhere... the lack of a romance tag has me Very afraid we'll get a generic "status-quot" anime ending with no kiss or resolution. Glad the plot actually seems to be progressing, but I think episode 3 will be a HUGE indicator for what they plan on Committing to with this series; an actual ending, or a "read the manga" cliche that we get so often now...

There is a special in December, but I don't know if it will just be one of those generic extra episodes, or an actual Final Episode which gives us the satisfying conclusion we may miss in episode 10.

So those are really her eyebrows, heh :D Wonder how that restaurant visit goes and can't wait to see other group members IRL (one can pretty much tell who is who by now, not to mention Yuuta has his friend in guild too.

And now I'm actually curious if she actually fall in love whi both Yuuta and Lily and whatever the following conflict would be :D (would be interesting for her to find out he and she is actually one person :))
That mail address Lily gaves him(her) would be dead giveaway sometime in the future (but yeah, he could have two e-mails). But first, she(he) probably learns about their ingame relationship conversation.

If I have to guess the main heroine would be the first who actually realizes.

Man this episode was way better than the first one! So Moriko ends up telling everyone she's a university student to hide the fact that she's a NEET LOL XD That dream of hers was kinda weird ... but they finally met IRL! Even though Sakurai types completely differently online :P I also finally figured out why Moriko sounds so familiar, her seiyuu has been in so much stuff :O Seems like they are finally gonna go out IRL! Haha, everyone in the guild is egging them on huh without knowing ;P Plus they're getting closer in game too ... hehe, I think this is gonna end up being good :D

Nice episode. I like how they are now bumping into each other irl (quite literally!). And when it came to talking to all your friends for help on a possible relationship I thought this couldn’t get much more closer to home.

Can totally relate to the mc about staying up too late and ending up face down on the desk. Funny, cute and gave me a warm feeling like the first one.

I'm really loving Lily's character, she reminds me a bit of Hanato Kobato design wise.
The whole IRL/Online stuff is pretty entertaining.

I do wonder how the others will react when they find out her real age.

Hahahaha I love it. Fantastic representation of Moriko's low self esteem onto "dating" some man that is more attractive -and possibly younger- than her, or at least from the image she has of herself.

I already like this series, but it's sad that's only 10 episodes. Well, I suppose everything has an end.

The more I watch the more flashbacks of my own life I get. 5:00 out of sudden... hmm, yep at this point it's better to simply stay up and YEP it never ends well... the only exception for that is when what you have to do is get on train and then ride for 5h... during my student life when I was often travelling there were endless amount of times that I ended up staying up through the night as otherwise it would be impossible to catch the train.

The story takes effect and looks a whole other thing than before, although some moments are predictable in their dynamics.It's too funny the protagonist and it's a shame for the quality of the drawings, seen as they are nice and expressive thanks to their facial expressions characters.

So far very enjoyable, the fact that the MC character is a NEET chick is funny enough, and usually you have the male MC that you kinda want to see catching the best girl, quite amusing I m shipping the female now to catch the best boy. LOOL

So, Moriko lied to the rest about her true identity. That 'accident' between her and Yuta is very forced. I tried to like the romance but it's just too childish with those faces.

so apparently these japanese gestures mean whether sakurai was having a bf or a gf. thumb for bf and little finger for gf. just in case anyone else wants to know.

The humour was much more competent in this episode. I'm guessing Moriko's appearance is going to fluctuate quite a bit now.
