Story 10/10: I didn't even know this was an Isekai before I watched it, therefore I absolutely expected it to be 12 episodes of Shiro and Sora just playing various online games. I couldn't have been more wrong. It was actually my first Isekai anime ever, and I found it interesting from the very beginning, especially the world they get taken into, the society, the politics, the different races, etc. Stuff I didn't think I'd ever care about made me actually binge the show in 2 days. And the games themselves were quick and somehow managed to be intriguing even if the very premise of the show hinges on them never losing a game.
Art 10/10: This is arguably the most colourful show I've come across, which might be a turn-off for some, but to me it seemed like it really contributed to the overall fantastical atmosphere of the show; I found it a pleasure to look at considering all the very popular very dark anime out there. I especially loved the thing they did in episode 9 where Shiro's feelings came across beautifully thanks to the grayscale used.
Sound 9/10: I loved the opening song before I even watched it, though the overall ost wasn't particularly noticeable apart from one track. The voice acting, however, is absolutely incredible, in my opinion, especially in the main characters' case. I unintentionally heard some of the dub as well, which... is not horrible I guess, but this is definitely a show that should be watched subbed, just for Shiro's voice. :')
Character 9/10: It's fairly plot-focused and yet it still managed to make me care about all the relevant characters in some way or another, though the main driving force behind the show, to me, were the two main characters and their relationship, which might be off-putting for some, but to me it was beautiful and one of the best sibling relationships I've seen in anime. The side characters were fairly interesting as well, though Steph's character could've been used better, but other than that, coincidentally the characters I found most interesting were the ones who got the least screen-time..
Enjoyment 9/10: The first three episodes I kind of spaced out, I felt like I shouldn't binge this show because it's something meant to be savored, but then I watched episode 4 and I couldn't stop watching; it just grabbed me and never let go. I usually have problems with comedy centered around fanservice, but here it didn't bother me as much as it usually would, and I did find it pretty funny at times. I don't think its rewatch value would be very high though, which is why I'm docking off a point.
Overall 9/10: It has its issues, as is the case with any show, but to me it's not anything that would make me change my opinion of it, though the ending did leave me pretty frustrated and praying that I live to see the day we get a second season. However, as much as I love it, I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone who tends to be overly critical or dislikes fanservice-driven comedy or just overall doesn't feel interested in it. If you do happen to be interested in it, though, by all means, it is absolutely worth watching.
