This caught my attention for the first few episodes as I think this was the first time I saw a MMORPG anime where ppl didn’t get stuck in it and were actually playing it as esports. Unfortunately, the rest of the story turned out to be mostly just random things happening that you can barely follow since you don’t know the rules of the game and it doesn’t even go anywhere since it’s unfinished.
Though I still appreciated the fact the main character was shown, not told (*cough* SAO *cough*) to be an actually super talented player.
I’d probably check out the sequel to this, but as stand alone, it just doesn’t feel like it offers much of value.

Unfinished

I’ve always wanted to watch this anime because my friends from China recommended me to, and my brother too. But I hate games with too much complicated stuff like game rules, etc, so most of the time, I wouldn’t understand what’s happening. ><

You’re usually not even told any rules and don’t need to understand anything beyond “oh it’s flashy” most of the time, so I don’t think that’ll be a problem.
