| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- If I was Maple, I'd more more careful about event monsters. Those type of monsters usually have more special abilitles or are tougher variants than the regular ones. I have to admit though, she is brave for trying to undertaking quests like that without hesitation. That takes courage. |
 |
| The girls obtained pets and cute ones at that. the had to defeat a strong bird for that they and they had a pretty hard time with the bird. And they also need to watch out for Pvp players. Anyway the girl was waiting for them in the end and the question is is she an ally or an enemy. This could get interesting. |
| Nice battle in the ice realm, and now they have pets that's cool |
 |
| Both Maple and Sally are pretty strong though they sort of struggled against that bird creature. It was funny how those admins, I'm assuming those little characters are the admins, were going crazy since Maple and Sally defeated that bird. It nice to see that they have pets now. |
 |
| That turtle is unbearably cute |
  |
| well nice they got familiars now... |
 |
| I like Maple has the Cover Move. I wonder if she can use it without aiding her partner.. anyway, theyre showing again some good angles lol |
 |
| New BGM for new boss, I like it. And the fight was fun to watch. Maple's cover move is kinda cheating though...... .again XD, she still took no damage using it. And I love seeing those dev team stressing themselves when Maple broke their again Lol. Love those pokemon as well, I thought it was fitting when Maple got herself a turtle since it's also slow but it was funny when it was revealed to have more AGI than her. |
 |
| really enjoyed the fight of Maple and Sally vs. Silver Wing! Tough boss. They worked hard to get the silver medals + 2 eggs. the turtle is faster than maple.. these two eggs remind me of the alchemist pets in ragnarok online. more nostalgia :) and lastly, samurai girl appears.. can't wait for next week! |
| those pets are so adorable man, makes me wonder if this is CGDCT anime ,also i dont even remember that samurai girl tbh was she even i the previous episodes? |
 |
| This episode is so inspired by Pokemon, you got an icy bird reminiscent of Articuno, which is surprisingly OP and the hatching familiars (Both are cute especially the turtle.). You know your agility sucks when a turtle has higher agility than you. |
 |
| The cuteness of Maple & Sally can't compensate to how boring and repetitive this title is becoming. They stumble a unique dungeon, beat the unbeatable boss, adquire items with broken stats, rinse & repeat. Hope the new character goes somewhere, unlike the other heavy shielder and blacksmith that are pretty much just decor. |
 So incredibly cute. The boss fights were actually rather thrilling, particularly the last one. Even Maple did not walk away unscathed. Thankfully, she managed to earn a rather noble skill in the nick of time. I cannot help but sympathise with the developers as they struggle to unravel Maple's mysterious ways... |
| Game mods, or whatever they are, are already trying to nerf Maple again by removing skills rewards that could make her even more busted. |
| So they basically defeated a sort of world boss reputed unbeatable : nice achievement ! |
 |
| Developers in full damage control mode. It seems they didn't see Maple getting the feather. Probably an overpowered item. Maple will break this game beyond repair. |

| So cute, So adorable, SO LOVABLE!!! God I love this series and Maple so much! I love hearing Maple call out skills. She has a really nice and cute voice. "Cover Move! Cover Move! Cover Move! Cover Move!" XD. Seeing Maple stroke the egg saying "Mommy" was adorable AF!!! Sally realizing Maple was on 1HP was also hilarious. The admins are really busy with Maple LMAO!! They've never get a break. Love this girl so much. She's too perfect and too dam adorable! Best girl of the season!!!  |

| If anything New world isn't lacking in terrain variety that it presents to its players. Funny how Maple was the one that encountered the random trap. Cover move while useful in this instance sure was a risky one giving it causes damage to its user. Hmm thats mighty generous of Maple in handing out the medals that they found to her friend. The second boss that they faced though proved to be much more powerful thanks to its adaptive attacks as well as its intelligence. The two pets that the eggs hatched though sure were cute. While cute the two also gave some flexibility to the girls while providing companionship. Looks like Kasumi finally makes her entrance. Overall a solid ep that managed to deliver a rather hard fought boss battle that managed to give Maple and Sally their first real challenge within the game. Though hard fought it managed to not only allow Maple to gain some new skills but also make her realize that teamwork and friends are also important as well. Looking forward to seeing how this confrontation with Kasumi goes though as she looks tough. Monster pets though sure is a rather curious thing to feature within the game. |

| That was a dope fight. Maple using Cover Move to keep up was cool, in before nerf. Still, considering that she probably has the highest def in the game right now that boss was pretty broken to bring her down to 1 hp. (heck if not for that skill she would have been beaten) It was also hilarious how the game masters freaked out lol. |
| I like how Maple keeps finding some broken mechanics. Makes it feel more like a real game, even if sometimes they get too OP. If this kind of Cover Move existed in a game, it's exactly how players would use it. I'm a bit surprised they avoid PvP. Sally sure seems to be the type who likes that and Maple didn't really have any problems fighting people during first event. |
| The devs in full damage control mode was incredible, A+ episode. And now Sally and Maple have little friends, I'm so happy for these new moms! |

| Easily better than pokemon sun and moon. I'm really enjoying this series and it just keeps getting better. |
| Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is. |
Because I can. Do I need a bigger reason? |
| Another great episode. Cute girls. Gorgeous art and animation. Light-hearted adventure. Enjoying the hell out of this. janiwolf said: Yikes! The fanservice positions were creepy That's a funny way of spelling "sexy". Seriously though, don't ruin the discussion threads with that BS. This is anime. The girls are cute and there's a sexual element to it. Don't like it? Fine, but shut up and let other people enjoy it without your judgmental crap. I welcome more fan service. These girls are top tier cute. Especially Maple. Short with narrow shoulders and small breasts for a girlish upper half but plenty developed below the waist. A dream for fans of the petite girl. Makes me very happy to see the production aren't afraid to show them in a slightly sexy light, as is tradition. [EDIT: Forgot to point out that this person actually used "yikes". Christ dude, Go back to Twitter where legions of normies are waiting to like and retweet your anti-anime rhetoric. This is a forum for anime fans.] |

| The fights so far really doesn't disappoint! Articuno, is that you?! It's impressive that they defeated it, but it wasn't going easily this time around. I love the bit where afterwards the developers talk about it being an "impossible to beat" boss and when they realised Maple & Sally beat it, they instantly wanted to check up on her before she gets more broken skills! That Venom Capsule was pretty funny, it's a good way of thinking cause her movement is so slow and immune for poison, but best part was Maple not realising that the Vemon she was covered in will actually harm Sally. Silly girl and her OP skills. So Maple & Sally both have an egg now. Maple got a turtle out of that... how fitting XD Pokemon in a nutshell to be honest! |
 |
| I was starting to get bored of this, so I dropped it. I had my suspicions when I read the synopsis, but this confirmed it. Everything is just too perfect, and there is an absence of conflict. There aren't even any friendly arguments. The comedy was getting too tedious as well. Cuteness alone just doesn't cut it. It's unfortunate, but there we are. |
| "We've made an enemy that's supposed to be impossible to beat, and we've hidden behind some really incredible rewards behind it too!" "Oh no, the OP player we're trying to nerf has now gotten those rewards!" |

Xstasy said: The boss fight was epic it reminds me on dark souls with it's transformation. The pets are cute, also turtle is faster than maple LoL. We will see in the next episode how well Maple handles pvp. Maple and Sally make such a cute couple UwU yeah, nice fight. Even more after we learned that boss was meant to be undefeatable. Maple give the developers a hard time. based on the ED, looks like they will be able to grow that turtle to giant size. xD |
| You know,I wasn't really expecting much from this anime,but damn,it delivers on nearly all fronts. Except for the OP and ED,not too keen on them,but the series itself is well worth the watch. |
 |
| these butt shots wouldn't be so awkward if they weren't lolis lol |

Zaphkiel_El_Rem said: don't want to point fingers everytime this show does something dumb with actual game mechanics but to add undying skills are common death knights in wow have one where you're undying for a few seconds but die unless you are healed same with dark knights in ffxiv was kinda a blatant ass pull that she got it right there but it's a fair skill for tanks to have.Ellenwitch said: I don't think so, undying skills are kinda normal to some RPG games.

| Yo Syrup and Oboro are kawaii AF!!! I gotta say I do love the fights in this anime. The animation is really well done. Oh yes Samurai girl next week <3 YossaRedMage said: Another great episode.

Thats the funny part there were 2 scenes where I can remember where I went "Oh those camera angles!" The first was when Sally stuck her head in the hole, and the 2nd was Maple recovering from her slime ball. Thats it lol. |

| Idk how this show is as good as it is but I love it, and the pets are so cute |
| It’s a funny they take the trouble to animate well the action scenes here, at least moreso than shows like Nanatsu no taizai 3 season are (a painful fact considering that NNT is an action anime) even though it should only be a slice of life with video games girls where they are supposed to have fun. Baffling because they have actual animators animating actual animation but the problem is the level of writing that is dead in this series. Have just one of those animators browse some webcomics for about five minutes and steal their jokes. Hell, have one of those animators play an MMO for five minues so you understand how they work. You have a bunch of supposed developers/admins sitting in a circle, lamenting that their unbeatable boss was easily beaten despite them giving it somewhat higher stats. That's not meant to be a joke. That's story exposition. |
| The administrators put in a impossible boss only to be beaten by Maple and Sally. Then they are trying to find ways to restrict Maple even more for it. They can eat a bag of dicks. |
ofc, you need a reason or else you are just wasting your time |
|
| these fan service takes were very cringe, but other than that the episode was good at all, expecting a well-constructed story here is just a waste of time, it's a fun and funny anime and that's all |
