Accel World Episode 1 Discussion

Great beginning to a series, I'm already drawn in deep. Surprised at lack of OP and abrupt end though.

Ok, FINALLY an anime with a fat main character...

the result? I can't stand the way he's drawn, he barely looks like human.

This is GOOD. Maybe not the whole thing, but at least Haruyuki is quite unique.
The idea about virtual world is heard of, but this is done well.

So far so good. 7/10 for the start.

Crap show. Dropped.

I can't say I agree on the deformed looking Protag for many many reasons that will take a lot of time to elaborate on here only for people to ignore my post and not care.

kawaii buta + kawaii hime = MOE !!!!!

LOOOOOOL YOU are indeed BLIND XD

Kuroyukihime = might be the next best thing since Kyubey.

Haruyuki = Cartman.jp

Gonna follow this show. Funny watching that kid try to use his new kung-fu.

pretty original concept: Burst Link
As an opening ep there was a good plot which keeps the watchers like me to keeping going.
A flaw would be that i would like to see the MC a little skinnier. Like you dont have to be fat to be bullied on, all you have to be is weak.

I only browsed the first chapter of manga adaptation couple of months ago but still noticed some more or less important details missing. I hope anime creators won't go too far with changes to the plot. Considering how good SAO is I think nobody should make any changes to Kawahara's works... And that's why I don't want to even look at SAO anime. It's a prime example of a great source material destroyed by crappy anime adaptation. Hopefully AW won't end up like this. It's Sunrise so it shouldn't be so hard for them to not screw this up.

Silver Crow's design looks weird. The CGI doesn't help as well.
Kuroyukihime's seiyuu is good for a newbie. Fat Shoe has some issues with self-esteem but he's okay.
So far so good. On to the second episode.

Y dis not translated on BT while SAO has 7 volumes translated?

Oh wow I just checked the staff to make sure of things. First of all:

WATCH OUT! This guy did Mai-HiME and that had a half point that turned all around 180 degrees to make it more depressing. So I assume I might be right in that the game will turn into something deadly or with very grave consequences once stuff changes around mid point.

Second:

OH SHIT! The guy made GC? Made Seikon no Qwaser. Yikes! Composed series such as Dance in the Vampire Bund, Fractale, Sora no Woto, Macross Frontier and Denpa no Teki Kanojo. Not to mention he did some Darker than Black?

Now I can expect some fuck up around. Don't know what kind but clearly 2 people of who I found of their work are quite insane in their imagination for what I lived through in the many series announced.

Just though of adding about 2 people doing this series: Director and Series Composer.

Sunrise surely put a lot of effort into this episode. The animation looked great and the way how reality and virtual world were combined was interesting.

Surprisingly the MC's character design didn't bother me too much.

I not sure why people keep on relate this to highschool DxD.That anime got boob and this does have.Its a big difference.

He can choose other Avatar other than the pig in virtual life but maybe bully matter force him not to..
His Avatar in brain burst look very ok .A crow without wing =p.

I liked the episode, definitely exceeded my mellow expectations. And I didn't even dislike the main character like many people do.

Thank you, sir. I thought I was alone with that.

Very good start to this series. I like the virtual setting and the main characters. Nice to see a pudgy main protagonist (his pig avatar is pretty interesting if not wierd) and the two girls are pretty awesome. Though I'm not keen on what Haruyuki did to Chiyu with the lunch basket. No girl should be treated like that.

However Kuroyukihime is going to be an awesome character.

Looks like the story will deal with issues about bullying. Curious to see where they will take this concept.

This is gonna be so epic

Nice first half
It's a nice setting to get into for me

Ah this was so awesome! I can't wait for more. This is the show I am most excited for this season~

This new show has some nice ideas but then again, it's far too stuffy and disorganised to be really interesting. Pretty similar to Index but with a weaker animation and evenly dumb characters (though less cliché, more... boring). The apparition of the superhero avatar in the second ep obviously doesn't help to make it less chaotic and over-hyped. Dropped it. Well, bad luck too I watched this just after Zetman, masterpiece vs average makes you feel like it's even less-than-average.

That was actually quit interesting, keep me wondering what would happen next. Definitely going to watch the rest when it comes out.

Wow the male lead has a really really irritating voice. Kuroyukihime's VA on the other hand is doing a good job.

This is great.

pretty good first episode! ^ .^
it really is nice, refreshing, and realistic to have this little short n' pudgy MC. i like him! i hope he gets alll da' babes. C:< but this is an interesting first episode and i am off to watch episode two, weeeeeee~!

this is pretty good for a first episode... very unique.

Good first episode. No matter how much uniqueness the protagonist has, it doesn't matter since he has the personality, looks, and actions of a loser. I can't like him no matter of what!

I guess I should start watching this.. :D

so-so - shows some promise - great character design!

Really similar to Sword Art Online, both take place in virtual worlds. But I have to say SAO's protagonist is much better.

The direction so far is good.

Why does the protagonist have to fat?seriously?
Dont think ill really enjoy the anime,but ill watch it anyway

This reminds me of .hack but it's way cooler with all the future technology and the fights. I didn't expect the little twerp to be the main character -.-' but gonna watch it anyway.

Tonde Buurin spin-off with Matrix.
Add a bow and a cape...

I don't care that the protagonist is fat.
I just can't tand people who are so "woe is me" when they're not that bad off.
His life isn't that bad. He needs to get over it.

Yes, there's no boobs in this one, but relationship between the main 2 characters is very similar to the relationship between these 2 characters here:
<---

I like this Anime regardless of the negative comments that I heard of :) besides kuroyukihime is such a beauty! It was love at first sight :)

Totally interesting!seems like it will be best anime of spring 2012.

Interesting Series. Starts out by introducing the characters (how dare Haruyuki ruin Chiyuri's food) and introduces the world it's set in. We'll see how episode 2 develops this more.

wew! I think the 'real' episode will be released now or maybe tomorrow..xD

ETA 2hour 10m according to this website

woah! thanks for the info :)) gotta bookmark it..xD wew! I've been dying to find sites like this :P

somehow i feel that the protagonist guy here is disgusting, and Kuroyukihime is really a hottie, it just doesn't seem realistic that she becomes interested in that big head guy.. well i think i will continue to watch this for now, just for Kuroyukihime..

Many WTF-is-this?! throughout this episode (a pig avatar playing squash). Was very disappointed in Haru when he pushed Chiyu's lunch away. Didn't really leave me when a good impression. Kuroyukihime is very cute and seems to be the most interesting character so far. A few cliche themes but the setting and circumstances are quite unusual.

The girls in this anime are all quite cute, think this may turn into a harem if anymore girls pop up. ie xfer student.

As mentioned before, VA of Haru is none other than the VA for Ouma Shu. After realising it, I started to hate Haru for some strange reason.

Will keep watching because I'm interseted in Kuroyukihime.

Yukihime is interested at him because he is good at playing the virtual squash.In Acceleration world is all about speed and she think that he is the man be able fulfill her quest .I don't think Yukihime care much less about his appearance .Yukihime beat his score by cheating lol

Haru did felt sorry for what he did to Chiyu. Lets give the small guy a chance ..

Like the futuristic tech and it looks promising so far. Hope he makes up the lunch thing to Chiyu later on.

MC's such a douchebag. So much for wish fulfillment, doesn't mean much when I can't feel bad for the MC in any way.

Fucking hell Shu, you've gained weight, good job on getting your blindness cure though.

I can understand the main character state of mind, but wasting Chiyuri food give me a bad aftertaste. Let hope the next few episodes will clarify and explain the relationship between the 3 friends and of course, he should apologize to Chiyuri.
