Well, based on the little bit that happens at the very beginning and that little bit at the end of the episode, I imagine the story on the whole will escalate. Even though it has no relations to Steins;Gate or Chaos;Head both of those stories there were by 5pb and things became more grander scale in each of them. I was meaning more of what was presented in the first episode since we don't quite know yet what will happen. Even just focusing on robot competitions, that doesn't sound like it would be too boring either if that's all it was.

im sorry but you're going to have to come back when you actually speak english rather than using babelfish because you're not making much sense.
Dude its not like you use much better english than me. Hell its harder to read than my crappy english >_>
im being serious
its actually quite hard to follow what you are saying most of the time

I think he was pretty clear. Both S;G and Chuuni have otakuism as a major focus.

You also don't have to be a dick about it.
sick of explaining the same thing over and over
It's funny, because I'm still not even sure what you're upset about. Chuu2 not being about schizophrenia or something?

Then pretend it's Chuunibiyou and drop it.

He's saying that chuu2 and Steins;Gate aren't very similar and that there's no contradiction in disliking Chuu2 for its premise and liking Steins;Gate. I don't think that's an unreasonable position.

I'll be as evasive as possible given that i've already finished the VN..
but you do realise what the first minutes of the anime were , right ?
You're right this is not a slice of life kind of show .. but some things are set in stone from the start ..

Sword art Online - 15
Gigantic a**h*le of the show confirmed
Nice episode for a transition...
The sister is as expected a good character and they adapted the transition well ...now the fairy dance arc can trully start...
But, and just humor me here for a second, what if I am?

I realized I hated this about halfway through but it's far too late to turn back now because the incest sucked me back in and now I'm interested. Eyepatch is the best chick.

Well, you're being too evasive for me to parse anything out of this. Are my expectations for the show way off?

Looks like I have yet another reason to watch this show <_<
Thanks for the heads up

But the first seven minutes were so perfect that I don't need to watch the rest!
Time to drop the (bad) act though (It was fun!), I have no real opinion on the show yet. I just wanted something to watch that wasn't completely depressing while I ate some dinner. Still haven't even completed the first episode.
All that aside, Lan is nice.

Sword Art Online continues its trend of being the worst fucking anime ever made. Congrats!
(The Tomb Raider people should watch this show so they can incorporate more PROTECTIVE URGES into their game).

Eagerly awaiting detailed impressions.
Wait until we enter the Land of Fairies!
Angel Beats is hard to top.

Awww yeah.
It's going to end up being for a really strange reason that confuses everyone. I can feel it now.
Yeah, I remember different ones saying that as well just last year or maybe even earlier this year. I also wanted to clarify that when I said about getting a tag, I just meant it was the "next step" here at Neogaf after Junior to Member status. I had no plans to do any "Tag Fishing" as people call it.
Yeah, sorry about that. I just wanted to use that Kamen Rider Wizard gif of Haruto after seeing last weeks episode. It was a pretty funny episode I thought, seeing that scene and another with Haruto waving and calling "Manami-san!" Haha.
I'm not watching SOA but actually went and checked and that gif is way out of context too. That girl gets up out of bed with the camera zoomed in on her bust and that's it.

Were you the guy with this avatar? You should use it again.
I bet it has to deal with the recovery time and the episode's "gotcha" moment.

The first season is really good. I haven't gotten around to watching the second season past the first two episodes, but I'm sure it isn't as bad as some have made it out to be.
Has it returned to being violently offensive rather than just bad?
Wait until you see the transition to the ED. I watched it like 20 times
I've been listening to Roundabout all week.
But isn't SAO Kawahara at his unrefined best? An unpolished diamond that was ahead of its time, Kawahara da gawd!
I'd forgotten about how it actually opens up so I listened to it a few times the past week and realized exactly what was going on when the music kicked up. so good

School Days is trash compared to it. And so are a lot of other things.
From The New World 2
The scene at the beginning was pretty intense and I'm looking forward to seeing how it relates to the show. I also really like the use of folklore and flashbacks in the storytelling.
Said it before, but I feel it bears repeating: this show is fucking GORGEOUS. Can't wait to see what they'll pull off as the show goes on.

I'm not entirely sure what the rules to that game they were playing were, That cheating kid had a pretty ominous vibe about him. I feel like this won't be the last time we see him, even though he vanished.
The scene with the monster rats was great. Their creepy looking things, but apparently they worship Saki now that she saved one of their lives. That flashback scene with Saki and her father gives them an ominous feel as well,

Yeah. SAO came before AW. It's funny cuz I call Sugou Noumi 2.0 when in reality Noumi is Sugou 2.0.
Just learn to ignore. It's hard, but it's better than put 90% of the members of the thread on the ignore list. lol
Nomi is much better vilain than Sugou can possibly want to be.

Excuse me, but it's called A Song of Ice and Fire not Game of Thrones!
No way, Angel Beats is nowhere near as offensive as this show. Angel Beats is just bad.
I hate you.
So not only does it add the I WANT TO FUCK MY BROTHER character, but the idea of this evil raper dude who wants to fuck Asuna and is controlling her body in the real world is probably the laziest, most sickening thing outside of hentai.
This is White Knight Chronicles taken to the next level, where women are not only objects to be coveted, but to be protected from people who don't appreciate their value as objects. Seriously, this show makes the dumb-as-nails women that Sorkin wrote for The Newsroom look like great, three-dimensional characters with depth and character.
I mean, most harem shows are just dumb fantasies that are harmful, but benignly so. For example, Hayate is literally about a dude who protects waifus. But when I watch Hayate, I don't feel like this is what the show thinks about the relationship between men and women. Sword Art Online, on the other hand, is like watching one of those Happy Science animes where you feel so much wahjah just watching a representation of an insane ideology that the author believes in and that its fans presumably believe in.
Is SAO and AW his only two series atm? Working on another or is he content to ride the SAO cashcow since it sells like 4x as much as Accel World in novels.
He's rewriting SAO currently, I think. Milk it dry!

Remember when people were arguing whether Asuna was a strong/competent female character? Well,
now she's literally been reduced to a helpless object for Kirito to protect! She has no agency, and now even her father and Sugo are trading her around like an object.
