I don't think there's an anime that doesn't get criticized. Btw, just started watching Database Database Wow Wow Wow. Episode 2 starts with everyone establishing some sort of irrational moral mumbo jumbo around PKing. Apparently participating in PvP in a multiplayer game with practically no death penalty is the lowest and scummiest thing you can do. This annoys me greatly. The show's pretty neat so far though. |
31
It's Japanese gaming culture influence. Not everyone in the world is a heartless dbag who revels in trolling. I personally much prefer cooperation and overall fun times. |
32
They're not exactly trolling though. |
33
Yeah but you do have to realize that its basically the real world to them so the thought processes are different. |
34
YOU MUSTN'T RUN AWAY, TADA BANRI. |
35
Pfft. I didn't pick up Golden Time and even the Filipino anime community keeps on making memes about Ghost Banri. But whatever LOL. |
36
Yeah, I can see that. And to be fair the entire game world (aside from cities) being open for PKing seems quite unfair. It sure is an interesting piece of game design. I mean, as it seems, PKing is the most efficient way of progression in that game. I hope they won't just make PKers the standard villains. It'll get boring real quick yo. Luckily this show's supposedly got some pretty cool depth. Oh god, ghost tadabanri is such an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. |

It's mostly exposition and world building. Some action is interspersed in between but its not the main focus. Still if you don't like Politics or Econ you'd get bored pretty fast. |
37
Good. World building is my jam. :3 If the politics and economy parts are as fleshed-out as I've heard, I'm really going to enjoy this show. |
38
They aren't that fleshed out but it was enjoyable. Should watch Golden Time if you enjoy MULTI TRACK DRIFTING. |
39
Well, at least I'm liking the MC's slo-mo inner dialogue, and the assassin girl is a qt. All's good in the end. I especially like the fact that the MC isn't a DPS class for once. |

I was talking about the PKing issue. The Anime community is just a microcosm of the Internet in general. Its the same when I talk about Politics so I'm kinda getting used to it. |
43
I'm quite enjoying the wooden horizon, now. This will be a fun ride. |
44
I saw the first episode. The concept doesn't have me hooked yet and it hasn't really grabbed me with its world...but, eh, that's only episode 1. I'll give it at least two more. |
45
Wowow was good, I gave it a 7/10. |
46
The first episode didn't hook me at all either. By the second half of episode two it started getting good for me, though. Simply because now they were done with the whole "oh no we're stuck in a game" thing, and they'd started exploring the game mechanics instead. |
47
They explain the game mechanics so much to the point that people complain about how much they keep treating people like they don't play MMO's. Because everyone plays MMO's right? |
47
I'll give it a shot pretty soon, then. But I do have a question, because this is a deal breaker: does the game ever break its own rules? I can't stand it when a universe, especially an MMO or pretty much anything with established rules, just completely breaks those rules and doesn't explain why or even give enough info to try to figure out how it happened. That was one of my problems with SAO, and it REALLY brought me out of the experience. |
48
No, it was solid in that aspect. |
49
Yeah it has an episode where it explains why the world is changing and the inherent logic to game mechanics in a real world sense. |
50
In that case, I'll keep watching. More for the backlog...wooh... |
