antonn said: Confirmed that there won't be a Season 2 with that ending. Hopefully Yes but that cliffhanger made a sure shot of a Second Season! |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| I haven't read the LN, so i may be wrong, but I thought they ended the series extremely well. 9/10 so far (only because its not complete yet). |
| Steph saved the day !!!! Coin Toss was a draw. Miko and Old Deus !!!!! I want to see them face Tet!!!! SEASON 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Jaeger07 said: Even "OH YEAH! Outstanding!" can't contain my praises for this episode. Such execution. Much badass. Wow. Iolo said: Terrible cliffhanger to end the season on...now i have to wait years for the next season :| Indeed, I can only hope the author planned his story in advance since they already spoiled the old deus part Omnime said: She's not an old deus. She's a Miko. Therefore she's a medium to the gods, which are the old deus. So therefore she's just a body for the old deus. Hue, that explains that part. Her being a literal vessel of the gods is a much more appropriate role for her. Nice! That's what a Miko "literally" is. I'm sure people were like going balls to the walls and like WHATTT SHE'S A OLD DEUS, when they probably don't know what Shrine Princess are in the Japanese culture. But it sucks that they introduced the characters out of order from the LN... makes me wonder if we'll really have a S2 or not... |
| People are overreacting to the cliffhanger. |

I found it pretty enjoyable in both a very funny way (I also loved how many game references were in this show like Phoenix Wright and Persona 4 lol) and thought it was clever. My only huge gripe with it is in the fan service....I know some animes are much worse with it but butt shots with and without panties of Shiro? An 11 year old girl? Are you freaking kidding me!? -_- Bro, anime has been getting weirder and weirder.... Japan finds that man kind only hope in humanity being lolis and showing fan-service of lolis is actually good thing...... what's next baby porn? You meant Toddlercon? 'Cause this already exists. |
 |
| Ahahaha. That coin toss game. I guess the only thing I do not like so much about NGNL is the artwork. I still find it hard for my eyes, their choice of color palette. Wouldn't mind a season 2. |

If you've been buying porn of this quality, you've duped hard. Fan-service of lolis can be found at the beach literally, there are little boys and girls in bathing suits. Anime just makes fanservice more erotic than it is. This show was nothing more than a walk through a beach. All we saw was skin lol |
| I knew it!! That Staph would be the one to win the game for them. Still it's a real shame this anime is already over, i want a second season. Guess i should start reading the LN's now and see what happens next really enjoyed this anime so the Novels should be even better. Can't wait to start with them. |
| That wasn't in the novels. Jesus fuck, nice surprise! |

Rayzer said: Danpmss said: You say this, but gave a 10/10 to Highschool DxD, man xD I rated DXD for 10 because TNK Studio made a great Anime Adaption of DXD Light Novels without like this No Game No Life cliffhanger ending![/quote] So... this anime is stupid because it gave us a cliffhanger ending? That makes nonsense. |

Omnime said: alexpte said: I know, but volume 3 didn't reveal them so early. Which is why I'm skeptical on a second season. It could be to entice for a second season, but how do you redirect the story. If it's just to hype the LN sales, then there probably wouldn't be a second season. Either way, I rather it ended with a Volume 4 cliffhanger versus a Volume 6 one. There are 2 ways I see a sequel's first episode(s) happening. They arrange a future game at some far away date, or they merely greet each other (they hail that warring god). Also, anyone crying about how the anime's score is too high: This is still fresh out-of-the factory. Wait until the end of the next season. Only then will the score solidify (mostly), because the people who don't watch anime while it's airing are going to come, along with the people who only rate finished anime. And then the last bunch of people, who don't have tmuch time IRL for entertainment, but will check it out, because it is high on the ratings. After all of those people have checked it out, the ratings, as I said will mostly solidify, and if the rating are still this (or even higher), you might just have to admit, that the show was very good, despite you not liking it that much. |
| Not enough Jibril this episode. |
| Just fantastic. Along with mushishi zoku, the anime of the season. |
| don't see much wrong with this being ranked 26. gintama takes up half of the top 10. Monogatari is in there. You also got spirited away and Kuroko no basket above this too. |

Japan finds that man kind only hope in humanity being lolis and showing fan-service of lolis is actually good thing...... what's next baby porn? Then you might as well go shoot yourself in the head, because toddler-porn is already a thing (I hope it's only in the manga/doujin areas) |

Well, here I am expecting that her name was Miko until this episode so yeah, I got a Nippongo 101 on that one when the cliffhanger actually played with her name also as a role. XD |

yeslelno123 said: That wasn't in the novels. Jesus fuck, nice surprise! Yeah, but I didn't think that was necessary. Nice way to end the season, allthough because of its popularity I had expected an announcement of second season at the ending. Not the best of this season but truly enjoyable, deserves a solid 08/10. |

So how do you think that it's not stupid? Anyway I won't argue with you. This Anime will be forgotten after a month or two. Hopefully this won't have a Second Season after a year or the best choice is Never! |

kitkatxz said: Oh come'on I saw many cartoons and anime that was way more ecchi than this series when I was a kid and I never though of anything ero.. how the F would anyone think of it, did you ever see Goku pull of Bulma's panties and his reaction? (DBZ) That's exactly what I mean.. you are just too innocent at 0-11 to even think of anything ero even if it's in front of you. (well with exceptions... considering this day and age >.<, which is sickening)I said, "what's next" i didn't imply that this was the level of porn... wtf Okay, stop trying to make this seems totally okay to show a 11 year old fan service. It's just a walk through the beach bs out of here. They emphasize the camera angles and shots when showing shiro to be her ero zones. "During this walk on the beach", all that matters is were you're eyes are focused at. If you look at any ero zones of a toddler/child like in this show, you be caught on the spot and be called a pedo. There is no justifying a little girl skin-ship unless ur in that age group which i really doubt any 8/9 year olds would watch this... |
 |
| Blank never crease to impress me with their calculation.Can't believe Izuna got beaten by a Steph though. (lol) The episode ended with a cliffhanger,judging from its popularity,I think we might get a season 2, I think the characters are amazing in NGNL and its story had a good mix of humour and wit.Entertaining series,9/10 |

Whatever we have to deal with it Japan laws never imply to anime |
| Anyway, NGNL's est. sales are not really bad. 2nd season is totally possible. |

| I don't approve of the panty shots on shiro but there is more going on for me in the anime to care about the shots. |
IZEROII said: Overrated. |
| 3rd post and this time my thoughts: I really liked the smart moves and especially ep 8-9, can't wait to see a season 2 of it 10/10. Anything like Death Note, Code Geass and so on where the protagonists are smart and pulling smart moves has a high rating for me ^_^. |
|
| Love Live 2 is gonna sell tens of thousands copies, now that's overrated. NGNL is totally fine. |

That's why I enjoyed the show itself more then the bad fan service and will definitely watch a second season when it comes out. I just hope when it does, I hope they cut down on the fan service. ao_no_exo said: @kitkats by the way anyone complaining about anything of this kind... did you check genre and rating before you complained? Or rather... before you started the anime. Genres: Adventure, Comedy, Ecchi, Fantasy, Supernatural Rating: R+ - Mild Nudity Edit: @ScarYaY: Oh and I liked the series for the same reason as you except I knew what I'm getting into with the fanservice... |
|
| Oh i am almost certain that a season 2 will come out in the future the question is when, the earliest is when vol 7 comes out but i am betting more an announcement will be made when vol 8 will come out |

Well there is going to be a shota vampire so, lol. Not exactly a good start for those against fanservice but there seems to be more going on. DawnJ said: Infinite stratos sold like 20,000+ copies.

It doesn't justifies itself with deus ex machinas and shit, it have real (and somehow twisted) strategy behind every game. Is a comedy anime with references, anyway, it doesn't even have to give us a marvelous story to begin with. DxD is stupid but funny, so you pointed the opposite in your defense :v |
|
| It was brilliant and I would like a second season. Now I am trying to see if there is a problem with show in general. Right now I would say the amount of fan service which I would normally beat a show over the head for the amount that was in the show, however, it is ecchi so I can forgive it for that because that is what ecchi is. I think it was one of those rare show that I can sit down and enjoy the fan service. I don't know it might be blind youth or how the show skyrocketed in rank on this website and I am just going along with the crowd. If this is not anime of the year somewhere on the internet I would be surprised because everyone I know that watches anime says this is great and again this site alone proved to me that it can surpass fate zero and be on the same level as death note. |

Anybody know if the LNs are translate and where I can read them? The only website I know that translates light novels is baka-tsuki.org. Unfortunately, they only have the first 3 NGNL novels translated and are currently working on the fourth. At least it seems they update their progress fairly often (about once a week). But I am reading volume 4 there |
| Sometimes the purists are really shooting themselves in the feet. The ending of the 3rd Volume of the LN is light-hearted romp of groping animal girls through the streets of whatever-city. In terms of maintaining tension and desire for a sequel, that ending would fail. The cliffhanger, though out of order, is a badass note to go out on. Plus, it seems obvious in retrospect that some sort of introduction to the Old Deus should happen now; a shrine priestess has a god, the old gods are actual beings in NGNL, so leaving that aside and not bringing it up for a long time wouldn't make much sense. If a second season happens, it will be a good opportunity to seed some stuff that supports the future--I don't interpret that ending as actually challenging the Old Deus, they just went out on a catchphrase. |
