I actually felt a little embarrassed watching this episode because the 'offline meeting' got too close to home. I had this happen in WOW - my guildmates all went to meet eachother in Phoenix. Introducing yourself is a lot harder than one would think.

I still dread those times when people I know IRL learns of my online handle
2 girls who are using male characters in an online game, that's kind of unusual, usually the boys are the ones using a girl character to get items or whatever. I fondly remember the times when I trolled other characters while controlling a female account, for a while I was told that somebody kept messaging my character asking either for a picture or a RL meetup while somebody else was piloting the account

Entertaining episode.
I enjoy making friends online (as well as offline but they tend to be different sorts of people usually) and it'd be fun to see them grow to become friends. Not sure if there is any sort of romance in this but I don't think this type of story needs it to be successful. |

Nice start, really liked this first episode and its main cast. Poor Rusian getting his first love crushed by cruel reality. Master buying all dem money items, frikkin premium player. Schwein being a pig and the most normal of them all. Ako being Ako. xD
A fun group for sure. Although it looks like Ako has real issues compared to the other four. No matter how much they "hate" normies the other three have integrated pretty well in todays society. Master is the president meaning everybody trusts and respects her enough to lead the school student body. Schwein has a close friend from the looks of it and she is cute/charming enough to get a popular boy confess to her. And Rusian has his own circle of sorta friends who talk with him, hang out with him and make fun of him but not in the real bully way but more like in good fun way. But the way Ako reacted when she ran into Rusian in school and how her character at the meeting when the guy she shly asked turned out to be Rusian... seems like somebody really has trouble adjusting to reality she has problems in it. Wonder if the other three can help her out with it. Anybody else thought that Schwein's line about not getting a bf because it would cut into her gaming time was a tiny bit of a lie? Have more of the feeling our tsuntsun girl likes somebody but never dared to approach her crush because they are/were so differently.^^ Also Ako's reaction to killing normies is worrisome. Just how would she react if Rusian would find a RL girlfriend? Probably not so good I fear...

ep 1
Soo it turns out despite his supposed bad luck, the MC manages not only land himself in a guild full of beautiful girls, but they all go to same schools? What are the chances of that happening?!
Heh, putting that I decided to check this out because of some of the buzz was receiving... and turned out decent enough for what it is. I dunno if I'll stick with it all the way through it's run, as I have a bit too much on my plate right now, but I think watch at least to ep 3. |

Ah... This is nice. Away from harem and blissful funny romcom story. I just watched the first episode while escaping from reality called worked and its really nice. I likes the pacing and animation. I have read the manga, chapter 1-5 and I'm happy for this adaptation. Ako is really cute.

Just finished watching episode one, and I must say that I ahve been palyign the wrong games all this time. xD
On the serious side anime started great, it has yet another interesting premise, I didn't realized that all of players were actually guys except Russian ( I know it's Rusian, I jsut found it hilarious how his name is one letter short of actual real life nationality ). It is interesting so far and I am hyped for more, so let's see where it will go. One more question: are LN finished? I saw that there is 10 of them so far but did they finished the story? |

The hell? Is this the Konosuba of this season?
Can't say I was that impressed, though, till the RL meet, at least. Hearing Hestia again was nostalgic. Not sure if this is a keeper, yet; will continue to watch the next few episodes or so to make a decision. |

I have no idea why I'm watching this. I guess I needed something absurd and silly this season?
In any case as someone who also had his fair share of awkward RL meets I can sort of understand the surprise of meeting online people for the first time in person. On the other hand, here in the Philippines people in MMOs tend to be the same as they are IRL (besides sometimes their sex anyway) so it's we don't tend to have conflicts in personalities.

actually, this is not a harem series. its one of those series where the mc is only romantically involved with one of the girls, and the other girls are simply friends or associates with no romantic feelings or developments between him and them.

Ofcourse if the anime director decide to do the same as the one from dagashi and turn this non harem in a harem will be another history.

I think people want it to be a harem because neither of the best girls are the designated love interest. You have the jaw-droppingly perfect onee-san in Guildmistress, and you have the perfect proto-tsundere in Schwein. Ako is beautiful and affectionate, sure, but she's also all kinds of broken.
