Ummmm....virtual handjob

 

[fertygo]

Things like tons of reused animations are not opinions. Straight up fact. SAO really cheaps out budget wise in a ton of ways. Once you notice them, it's hard to ignore and the action starts looking like hot garbage.

2nd half have pretty legit sakuga, from famous animator too.

But yeah..

 

[slightconfuse]

Im a shonen protginst.

i do everything by myself

 

[Schadenfreude]

These guys are gonna be lifelong friends after one afternoon.

 

[Amikami]

You guys are fucked.

 

[yami4ct]

First episode bro

Don't pretend it's uphill from here. SAO gets like 3 good episodes before jumping off the quality cliff.

 

[commanderpepper]

A glitch?

 

[Mr. Patch]

YOU AINT LOGGING OUT BITCH

 

[Kaizer]

More alive in the virtual world? How sad.

Otaku life son.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

NO ESCAPE

 

[DominoKid]

Yall stuck!

 

[Tenumi]

Yes, this scene contains no sexual overtones what so ever, none at all.

And we're only in the first half of the first episode!

 

[BassForever]

His what pizza? Lol

 

[Knux-Future]

NOT THE PIZZA

 

[Raxus]

This feels like a Tales anime. At least how I'd imagine one.

Then I am glad I never played Tales games then.

 

[heliosRAzi]

Yes, this scene contains no sexual overtones what so ever, none at all.

You don't want to get your pizza on?

 

[Zonic]

Is this a manga or something first? Can I read it somewhere?

Originally a light novel, then I think it became a manga.

 

[mightynine]

Teriyaki mayo pizza? I'll take Little Caesar's.

 

[foxuzamaki]

These guys will get a huge romance going

 

[everyday math]

Whoa Neogaf just 502. Weird timing.

 

[Shard]

We have a premise!

 

[BatDan]

One Piece also had an exciting first episode. Not sure why this is so meh so far.

Has the Light Novel series been officially translated?

 

[MetatronM]

CTL-ALT-DEL motherfuckers

 

[ReiGun]

Ctrl+Alt+Del, bro!

 

[Jintor]

No alt-f4 option

worst drm ever

 

[Ultratech]

I'm surprised there's no command like Alt-F4.

That's kinda stupid to not have any other way out though.

 

[slightconfuse]

ALT F4

 

[Azure J]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

 

[Schadenfreude]

This is all a metaphor for games being so addictive that you never want to leave. Deep.

 

[CielTynave]

Then I am glad I never played Tales games then.

Tales at it's worst is like classic literature compared to this.

 

[789shadow]

DELETE SYSTEM 52

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Everything got all creepy

 

[kayos90]

Teriyaki mayo pizza? I'll take Little Caesar's.

Sounds like you haven't tried it.

 

[B-Dubs]

What kind of moron doesn't put in an emergency log out into a game like this?

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Is this a manga or something first? Can I read it somewhere?

This is an adaptation of a Japanese light novel. It's basically a book with more pictures.

 

[commanderpepper]

Hack the game. Come on computer guys.

 

[LycanXIII]

And then a storm comes through and causes a city wide power outage, killing all the players.

 

[Knux-Future]

this sounds like a really bad idea....

 

[redmetal86]

Oh just hold the power button for five seconds!

 

[Tenumi]

I fear a world that thinks devices taking over all nerve control for a Video Game is a good idea.

 

[DominoKid]

This nervegear sounds like some bullshit. I dont want any part of that.

Oh shit rampant thirst.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

hahahahahaha, this guy's awesome

 

[ASSauLTxMasTER]

Oh GOD.

 

[everyday math]

[ThatObviousUser]

Getting kicked in the balls doesn't hurt. XD

 

[Amikami]

[ReiGun]

Wouldn't date a gamer?

But he's such a nice guy.

 

[Kaizer]

[Raxus]

Something went wrong with nerve gear. YOU DON'T SAY!

 

[Order]
