Advertising is against the global rules.

The only answer I can give you is to find it in the same website/streaming you watch Naruto from.

Pretty boring episode.

There was no intensity for me when killing Behemoth.
They didn't explain the GGO underground dungeons and how Sinon came there, they didn't mention that she was almost out of ammo either.

I personally think the episode was pretty well done.

I read the light novels, but I'm not mad that they aren't following it exact. Animating a light novel is pretty tough work to put into 24 minutes, because the Light Novel gives every single thought of the character, which the Anime doesn't do. As long as they were straight to the point, I'm happy. :yay:

10/10 for me.

10/10 for me.

Sinon vs the NPC was pretty boring, they really should've added her talking.
Watching her shoot it for 2 minutes was reallllly boring.

It's an anime so you can't expect them to go into as much detail as the LN, aside from that I think it was rather ok

Are you talking about the light novels or the anime?

I think the light novels were a little longer on that part.

Yeah the LN was longer.

And I'm talking about the anime, it's boring in the anime to see someone just silently shoot at a monster for 2 minutes.

I thought it was an excellent episode and it was sad to see her squad mates dying so i give it a 5/5

Sucks.............

This whole ep focused on 1 girl, the plot hasn't taken a step yet especially since the guy wasn't the Death shooter or whatever the hell he's called. Just some random gamer who smiles.

Next ep better get things moving.

Action didn't feel as exciting as say season 1, probably because there was less screaming and a more subtle theme playing

Scorps · Jul 14, 2014

This arc is differently paced than the first ones. Seems they are taking time to setup the whole deal before actually developing the plot and starting the action. I'm not against it. It normally helps the action get on a faster pace when it does because you don't have to stop it to explain things or actually develop the characters. That job is already being done.
