Art style is definitely better and more impressive in the Hai to Gensou no Grimgar or other current series. It is well executed, but it is simple concept I have seen many times once you recognize the pattern.Īnimation has lot of CGI especially in relation to the game world - weapons, enemies, environment. Friendship, romance and fighting bunch of enemies threatening people.

All this you do to achieve completely meaningless and empty goals.Putting that aside the story is kind of like mahou shoujo spin on MMORPG anime. If you want to excel at any game you have to dedicate lot of time to grind, hone your skills, etc. Obviously false claim, because games are generally built on grinding to the death mechanisms. As a game promo anime It tries convince the viewers that playing online games has no impact on school performance.

However like some other anime series it is set in school. That being said unlike those other anime series it is not about being trapped in the video game. Quite obviously another addition to the MMORPG anime series. One would expect lazy shameless game promotion (score 1/10 or 2/10 maybe), but instead you get decent anime. This anime is surprisingly good for a game promo anime. This is gonna be so hard to review without spoilers. It was entertaining to view, but it might be geared more toward people who have no experience with PSO. This was meant to be a promo of some kind, but it basically left me feeling a bit discouraged. They had interesting reactions toward one another, and as usual had some awkward moments, which they resolved in unique ways withtout breaking their characters for a "generic" answer. Now, aside from the horribly scripted "must do school zombie" bits that are slapped in, the characters seem well created to me. Red Ring Rico would definitely be crying from this. about 4 fights? Cutting severe levels of corner, just to make a conclusion. In the game, he's the very last boss, and requires a LOT of buildup to get to him, but they just charge in after. The story kind of bobbles about, giving a little bit of world building here and there, until they're abruptly forced to fight aginst Dark Falz. On top of that, the show focuses more on the kids who play the games, while the PSO world takes a back seat to everything else, even though PSO is supposedly the focus of the entire show. It's rather attention grabbing and immersion breaking. They even used an "inspiration for survival" where one character basically said "You can't die here, you still have to organize this school event!" and suddenly they were filled with worker-enslaved determination. Even as the characters are being attacked by enemy forces, they're still more concerned with how their next quiz will be. Under the action it has a visibly forced layer of "Japanese School is always first". The show feels incredibly vapid, yet entertaining, as it strained me in two directions. Unfortunately I was disappointed by the contents inside. When I first saw this, I had a little bit of nostalgia toward my own PSO Blue Burst days of yore.
