So glad I decided to add this Anime to my PTW of the season at the last minute. This is so well done and so far has an interesting and well crafted plot. I don't want to read the original source for now, but I hope this one doesn't disappoint as most of the new anime last season (I'm not counting sequels and the likes of Helck and Dark Gathering)
25 episodes total, excited to see what's coming next :)

The lighting and Shader work in this series is on a different level, not to mention, the sound design too... This is some top quality production we got here...

I have so many questions now, are the NPCs in this game actually programmed to act like sentient entities? The conversation with the blacksmith last episode and the conversations in the Rabbits land makes me feel that way. If they are not programmed that way, Is this game actually transporting players into a different world which has a vast culture with different species...

God i love this anime it speaks to my gamer soul and i also love the minor details like the stat system, parrying, item and skill descriptions, item and skill upgrades different enemies depending on what time and location and also having buffs and debuffs on top of that everytime he goes to a different location a text pop up the name of the location and more. This Small details adds up to the world building that is why i love this show btw all of this happened only in 3 episodes we still have 22 more to go

Ohh yesss me too, I really like the game concept that they are releasing in each episode. I'm resisting not to read the manga, I already have them <3 as soon as I finish the season I'm going to give it my best with all my heart.

Decent episode although I thought the fight w/ the unique monster dragged a bit. I did think Sanraku was going to find a weakness but instead he got killed and cursed.

Perhaps the rabbit leader guy will offer to train and/or decurse Sanraku in exchange for killing another mob or something.

The battle against the dog was boring and took to long. This show's hardest challenge is to make me care about battles in a fantasy game and so far, it hasn't succeded.

Maybe the Vorpal Scenario will be more interesting.

The Ending part was funny though. This show really shines whenever there's actual human interaction.

I would have been extremely surprised if Sunraku had managed to do much more than he did against that unique boss, but looks like this was a way of introducing his goal for the long run, which quite matches what we've seen of his character so far.

Very good episode we now have a goal thanks to that unique monster. He wants to defeat the monster and in turn its curse provides for a unique challenge that only bird dude could really accomplish. It also seems that him dumping all his points into luck makes him more likely to find unique events to help him with his new quest. I also dig the scars very cool way to indicate that he's cursed.

Interesting idea: get a huge debuff for loosing a boss fight but gain access to additional game content. I wonder if this would work in real videogames.
Some games have mechanics that require losing or getting captured.
For example in World of Warcraft some quests required the player to die to interact with spirit NPCs that would only be visible to the spirits of dead players.

Other quests required having a debuff on you.

I like how this turned out- Sunraku doesn't beat Lycaon, but puts up a good fight against it despite his level. He doesn't get saved at the last minute either by some over-powered player. Instead, he's killed, because that's what would happen, and respawns with a mark left by his fight that will influence his gameplay experience from here on out until he can remove it. Good progression imo.

@Janko

Bloodborne and Octopath immediately come to mind where certain locations can be accessed early in the former and losing matches is requied in the latter to complete some npc quests.

Sunraku makes a splash in the world of Shrangila and meets a formidable foe that the game world has not yet encountered.

I hope to see him and his luck stat grow and become OP. He does have the experience of beating trash games behind him, so I know he can do it.

If by "Foe that the game world has not yet encoutered" you mean that Sunraku is first one to fight her, then that's not true.

Na, Sunraku really is the type of tryhard that the devs end up making a sculpture or special npc dedicated in his name, he faced Lycaon practically in rags, and yet, he was so imposing for the uber boss, that he finished him off. casting a curse to nerf it a little since the tutorial hasn't even finished yet. On the other hand, his feat of fighting Lycaon and making him recognize him as a worthy rival was not in vain, now Ellym became his number one fan, and in addition to being able to go to the dimension of the vorpal rabbits, Rabituza, Vysache, who is the boss of the place, sent him to call him for some proposal, which I assume will be to offer him training in exchange for defeating Lycaon for some previous grudge they must have had and wants to get revenge through Sunraku. See you next week, it's going well.

Its great to see some reality set in that not everyone can be OP despite effort.



This feels like an actual death scene and much more poignant.

This is shaping up to be Anime battle of century.

Also Rabbit vs bird. Who will win.

The rabbit boss is epic terrifying, like mafia levels.

MC is outclassed clearly for once. It must have taken him immense guts not to shed his feathers immediately out of fear.

Man, why can't we have games like Shangri-La Frontier in the real world? The game world/system is very unique and the fact that curses seem to affect events/scenarios around a player is actually pretty cool. Also, I am a bit relieved that the wallflower girl is actually a seasoned player of SLF, was worried about her being p2p last ep but they really used her well to expand the lore of the game and the clans as well as the unique monsters/scenarios. I hope we actually get to see the other gals in the OP cause it's taking quite a while for them to show up (yes I know the show has 25 eps, really looking forward to enjoying the rest as they come out). What do the rabituza have in story for our "hero"

@NogueraB In Japan it competes with such works as AoT or Quintessential Quintuplets and it's volumes get reprints on regular basis. I don't know about "some countries", but as long as author makes lot of money (and he does), winning awards and have no worries about being axed, it is succesful manga.

You clearly have no need to be lied by other people as you are fully self-sufficient. Feel free to have last word.

Seems Sunraku went up against one of the strongest monsters in the game, and put up a pretty good fight against it too, Love to see it.

I do wonder what the deal is with the bunnies though, especially the boss, he looks a little scary. But this is supposed to be a unique event so something good comes out of it right?

The animation is still great, in most shows it would begin dropping off right about now, but it is still great to watch.

Soo there are seven unique monsters in the world minimum, and MC stumbled into the right chain of events to bring one out. Lycagon is as tough as one would expect, not wavering in the face of a single guy no matter how many millions of crits you can pull off. That's a good thing, a character like Kirito would have destroyed the thing. This does lend some credence to the idea that Shang is SAO but with a bit more realism to the world.

Guess we now know where those marks on his body came from, fitting for him to receive after taunting the wolf with the declaration to not lose to anyone else. Considering the mark offers magic protection, there are reasons you could keep it around despite the monster level restriction. Just fight some really tough magic monsters and the mark will protect you better than any Mud Frog clothing.

But he has no choice other than to walk around towns half naked XD how hard can it be to find a Saint in this world?

I'll also say, the bunny boss looks like half yakuza boss - half emperor. This place does have a lvl 80 recommended so maybe they'll get to spar a bit.

Poor Sunraku never stood a chance. I'm going to miss his previous outfit. I much preferred that outfit to him running around in his shorts.

The AI system in this game is absurdly good.
