When i first started, i ended up leaving at episode 4 and not coming back for a while, i pretty much forgot what i already watched. However It was easy to catch up and that's when my interest in the show were peaked.
They made a new twist in the isekai genre by making a physical virtual world where robots go to have fun and battle, whilst for some reason unbeknownst to me... the humans live inside the created world with no knowledge of its history. They have fleshed out the world a good bit.
Whilst it stayed interesting throughout the anime. I found myself not one bit devoted to the characters, i wouldn't of cared if any character had died, i think it would have been better for them to not have kept that backup data (and he was my favorite character) and reversed a scene they could have left out for if it wasn't for plot / feels sake. I could have enjoyed the ending more.
On that note, the last episode was pretty shitty IMO. I mean why did she say "Good morning" of all things "telepathically" to Kaburagi at that point?? The final battle was lame. Lets see who can charge their canon the fastest and with the strongest charge? Kaboom! it just didn't show it well. I did like how it implemented showing the replacement games that they play now mixed with how the characters lives turned out.
IN SUMMARY: The characters are not interesting or fleshed out well, it does have its moments but its all generic, especially Natsume. Although she was less annoying compared with characters from other shows and not totally useless. I don't notice the art much on most occasion, it was fine here. Same with the sound, it wasn't annoying. The original plot to the show is what drove it so far and then the ending killed it on me. It's a Nice watch (could get boring), nothing special.
