    Do you remember any good characters designed like the praying mantis fellow?

    Yeah, me neither.

    When was the last time you saw a genuinely upright character with this design?

    Never?

    Yeah, I thought so too.

    The world itself doesn't make a lot of sense for a system run by machines.

    Like, to the players, the game is completely virtual. There's no stakes for them. So why is it even IN the real world at all? Why isn't it all digital?

    It just seems like a massive waste of resources on the part of the machines to run this system this way. It would be way easier and more efficient to just have everyone plugged into a Matrix.

    (Imagined) Realism, much like how people still watch reality TV despite it being scripted.

    The fact that your avatar also physically dies and cannot be reused lends to the "hardcore" nature of it, compared to an artificial limit set by game devs.

    Yeah, but the reason reality TV exists is because it's cheap and easy.

    The Deca-dence setup has GOT to be more expensive and more work than just running a VR world.

    Reality TV exists because there is a big audience for it. Being cheap is a bonus.

    Episode 09

    --------------------------




    It seems like they turned a human sanctuary into a theme park rather than the other way around.

    50 bucks also says that Pipe will survive since he was a baby and never had the factory meddle with him.

    I repeat myself every week, but them, this is such a jolly good series <3

    Really wonder if we'll get a proper end or if they'll tease a season 2 (or have it end on a cliffhanger).

    Episode 10

    You know what I dislike?

    Giant, mindless final bosses that exists just so everybody can unite to fight against it, so that at the end "oh, you bugs and humans aren't so bad after all".

    No, that giant thing is a bug itself. The fact that you need help to defeat it doesn't change the fact that there's an ideological difference that remains unsorted.

    Let's see how this turns out. Humanoid final bosses are way better than giant sacs of HP.

    That monster doesnt change that the purple asshole is still out there killing bugs, so I doubt defeating it will be the end all.

    btw we REALLY need some quality h-doujins featuring the blonde fighter chick. dear god ...

    Turns out the Matrix similarity runs way deeper, though only in the sense that they want to keep the "Endangered Humans" controllable.

    Turns out that Milk (or whatever his name is) actually died that day that Gadoll were all deactivated. I'm slightly saddenned and disappointed by this. In the end, the mystery had some leverage in this story in the beginning. I'd say overall this is slightly better than the usual run of anime shows.

    anime of the season and generally a fantastic anime. not a single bad episode. Really enjoyed this.

    only thing i dont agree with: so basically they created a clone of Kaburagi? That's kinda cheap. The real Kabu is dead. So this copy just exists to satisfy Natsume? Feels kinda wrong.

    Anyway, great show.

    And then it turned into Gurren Lagann.

    At least I got a real ending. I get so little of that these days.

    I've been thinking about other anime to compare this to, and I keep coming back to "Row Row Fight the Power!" The main character here does resemble another orange haired girl from an anime in the last 5 years about escaping captivity as well.

    Yeah, but today there was literally a giant robot powered by believing in yourself and a Giga Drill Breaker.
