While it was fun watching Maple go through that long quest, this episode didn't really work out for me. Why? Because it confirmed what I've always known about Maple: she has supreme protagonist power. If you think I'm being unfair, just look at her new power-up. Her companions even describe her as their guardian angel. At this point, why do I even bother watching? Because the visuals look nice and the VAs are giving it their all. This anime has more than enough style to overcome its lack of substance.

You and I guess others are assuming that programmers are:
- well paid
- motivated
- not tired
- experienced
- programmed/created everything from scratch

Even the WoW had made a mistake.

NPC dialogue is just standard dialogue HOWEVER NPC Syrup shouldn't show personality. He shouldn't have a problem with Kuromu mentioning he could steal and sell him. SUSPICIOUS MUCH!?


It's not very suspicious. It may be oversimplified but it may be simple AI. They might just put more efforts into pet system because you are going to interact with a pet on regular basis.

I don't think those things about programmers. I do have some expectations, but they're quite minimal.

I understand programming on top of engines and going from the ground up.
WoW's oversight was one thing and they patched it. Furthermore, it lead to them coding with it in mind to prevent further repetitions of the same thing. Based on what the admins of NWO were saying, they should've done the same but Maple kept repeating pretty much the same thing and getting the outrageous results..?

AI doesn't work how you think it does.. that would be a massive discussion not meant for MAL forums though.

~anyways~
I recommend waiting for the anime to complete before considering the novel or you will enjoy the anime less. The anime is overly romanticizing the series by a large margin. This includes cutting out many episodes we could be getting, simplifying fights, and giving Syrup and Oboro emotions.

Maple and the one punch twins are an adorable trio. Kanade going to be a beast with all those spells storage in a guild war (my idea what the fourth event going to be) sally basically a speed demon with a demonic style, Kasumi a top tier swordswoman, IZ an amazing craftswoman wiping up those hammer in no time and the only sane and normal player as a unique set of equipment that just as cool as maple black rose set. speaking of armor that angel set of armor is in incredible I hope it not like snow white shield it in one or two scenes and never saw again

on top of engines


There is still "modding" aspect. There might be many features but it might not work for the NWO.

I am not analising this this anime from A to Z but the case with the NWO is not that simple. Gamers got skills and stat bonuses but those things are not game breaking for everyone... I think.

Well, whatever you may call it I think it would be easy to "program" pets to react to simple things like this.

Maple's actions are as outlandish and dreadful as usual. The others start to match her in that regard.

The quest with the mother and child was like, when my character(s) was overpowered and/or already had the item requested, but the NPC used his predetermined lines either way.

I already dislike Pain. He's a dubious character.

I love how Maple's guild members end up being broken in their own way, yet it's Maple who randomly stumbles her way into being more broken than everyone else. With how insane the guild's DPS is, having Maple being the ultimate support just solidifies their collective insanity.

Oh that part where the ingame script breaks has happened to me before, that's so relatable. The NPC was so insistent on something that didn't happen.

I'm most curious now about Kanade and her Akashaic record, and Krom I guess... he got something too.
I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters.

If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too.

It's pretty funny seeing two small cute girls holding giant hammers almost their sizes.
The bit with the sick mother was so funny since she had to go through the forest, but Maple being Maple broke the rules lol. She basically broke the dialog.

Angel Maple is the best Maple. The funny text bits at the end are the best.
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

And so Maple became Holy Maple.. ;P Maybe game masters should hire her as boss, after all.. Also I have suspicions that maybe Pain is actually NPC, and actual final boss.. Or something like that.. Instead of it being actual player.. But we'll see..

I'm thinking it's not even Maple that's the most OP. It's that Turtle with flight capability. It's able to bypass tons of enemies / quests, gives fee / easy transport, no limitations, and it seems no one else has it. I think that's more gamebreaking than whatever Maple has on her build. Turtle OP pls nerf.

I'll be honest I've been really losing interest in this show but I did like that quest line towards the end. I love how the dialogue for the NPC just doesn't fit what's really happening because of how much Maple has been breaking the game lol I also love her new outfit and ability, and it looks like we'll be getting a fight between Payne's guild and the Maple Tree!

So now Maple is an angel? Talk about unexpected... Whenever anyone from the guild is in a certain radius around Maple, then they become practically invincible.
Yui and May got a pretty big upgrade in strength too with those crystal hammers.
If this was a real game, it would be very unbalanced. Fun to watch all this happen though!

Nice now Maple can protect her guild in the next competition with her angel transformation. Guessing Payne is supposed to be the main competition for her guild this season since we have yet to see his face we have either seen the back of his head or his face in the shadows in front of a fireplace; with Mii we already seen her face since the start of the season. I find it hard to believe that a game as immersive as NWO that allows its players to build their characters how ever you want to meet their play styles along with so far a it seems a new infinite different types of skills a player can earn that the NPC dialogue the game is so basic that it is about or equal to the same level of games we currently have right now.
