Well, the animation is certainly as good as the ads led us to believe, however the same was true with SAO and look at how A1 has slacked off since. But there's one big difference between the two shows -- as good as the animation was in the first episode of SAO, the direction was completely pedestrian, whereas here it feels like the director is auditioning for KyoAni or SHAFT.
As for the story, though ... I can't say that it hooked me. The world and characters seem interesting so far, but I have the feeling we're going to get several episodes of world building before the plot kicks in.
