Geh it's not that hard to figure out that yourself who put the backdoor, the only way you can do that is have is direct connecting, in this series is direct connecting like lovers or closest friends (trusted).
YOU GOT IT! Some people might not. We all have different levels of comprehension.
Zhou said:
Is this based on the light novels or the manga, are there even differences between them?
Anyway, the pacing of this is great, serious shit next episode and an awesome fight is awaiting us in episode 5 (and 6?).
There very little differences and so far the anime adds scenes the manga did not have to make things more clear and better.

This arc will be start of a very long Arc of EPIC proportions of Love, Fights and Friendship at risk with the trio involved with Hime. You all in for some amazing shit to say the least.
Zhou said:
I don't remember Chiyu's and Haru's scene in the manga like that but seriously, how could she not notice that Haru was looking for something while they were talking and not ask him.
They made Chiyu's expressions smexier almost to the point she is like saying "It's OK Haruyuki I give you my virginity" kind of like that. The rape stuff is only towards her expression, I don't imply the act. As a matter of fact I think I have seen those faces in hentai so no surprise at that one. Still Chiyu was MOE more than in heat TBH at that part. Just 2chan's IMOs are vexed too much in a perverted manner.
Totentanz said:
One has to wonder why Kuroyukihime was so obsessed to reach level 10. Perhaps a severe case of escapism and trying to strengthen her self-esteem by compensating losses in real life with success in a digital network? Her mentioning the ugly form of her avatar last episode seems to hint at some personal issues at least.
It will be revealed but it's not the reason like you mention. It's far more than that but TBH I find it stupid but at the same interesting to know the end result.


I'm beginning to think that Kuroyukihime is the antagonist of this anime.
I agree with you in terms she has tendencies of using means to achieve her goals. Other than that no signs even in the manga of anything of her antagonistic potentials.

This anime has such a great concept and plot, but I just can't get over the MC's design.

Why oh why did the author make him a short chibi kid. It would have been perfectly fine if he was just a normal looking character. The other characters, setting, plot and concept are all fantastic ><

Seeing the scene with Chiyuri and Haru on the bed was just a giant WTF moment for me. His design totally ruined that scene for me. I just can't take it seriously, especially since it looks like there may be a love triangle in the future ( Or maybe already ) with Haru =/

It's quite sad. No matter how good the anime may get later on, Haru's design will always keep me from giving it a 10 if it does get that good.

Well it's obviously Taku backdooring Chiyu (harharharharhar). But man, looks like Chiyu ended being one of "those" characters. Would've been better off without her.

If he was your "Average Joe" he won't get "Silver Crow".
Duel Avatars are made from your inferiority and ambitions. With the current "size and body" he has a greater inferiority till the point that he hates himself, in result his Duel Avatar is the "Silver Crow" with a very strong potential.
So, the stronger the inferiority the higher the potential of your Duel Avatar.

You'll get to see how strong in probably the 4th and 5th episode.

Wow Black Lotus is honest with her ulterior motives. I wonder if she's still holding back other critical information though. I still have this "keep-your-friends-close-and-your-enemies-closer" feeling about our fat little boy (Gawd, I just thought of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki nukes!) character and his new "girlfriend"... and now with his two childhood friends too! >_<

Considering that the backdoor is used as a way for someone else to transfer information through, it's pretty obvious who cyan pile is considering who the limited amount of people that have access to "her."

Also I can agree with people on the designs of the main character. He doesn't have to be a bishounen or whatever, just the entire design is incredibly out of place. He's more than half the height of taku and everyone else, he's literally a walking ball of pudge. If the artist wants a fat kid, you can make a fat kid, but the MC is a walking BALL.

This. I just can't stand it. I mean, there's already been fat characters in anime, which looked NORMAL (take Hirano from HOTD or Hashida from Stein's Gate), so why do you feel the need to bring down the enjoyment of the show and it's seriousness just to ... well, I don't know, are there any positives to this design?

I got better ones that are more direct in the spoiler
if those GIFs don't suggest sex then they should prove more than enough of what scenes gave out more than it should. It was done well towards that part in the anime. The manga failed at it.

finally 3ird episode is released, i didn't know about it until today and i have to say i love the op and end themes a bit spoilerish but i dont care ive read the manga

that direct link thing with shorter cables is very awkward in the manga and its even more awkward in the anime, they do it with very short cables, on top of the bed, face to face, anyone would know it implies making out or even sex, and she did it with him instead of her own boyfriend? now i may not be an expert at this direct link thing but doesn't this count as cheating?

i already know what happens so i wont talk too much but i cant wait until the next episode because that's where it gets interesting

at least this anime sorta teaches u how it feels to be bullied and then saved. ;p

But for me im guessing the cyan pile is taku since there isnt any other character introduced.

haru- hes not for sure.. got his own
kuroyuki- black lotus
chiyu- maybe but they making it so obv...so i doubt it
taku- is the mostly likely since no one suspects him ( reverse psychology)
theres no other main character..so far.. so ya

So, the stronger the inferiority the higher the potential of your Duel Avatar.

You'll get to see how strong in probably the 4th and 5th episode.
They could have kept him fat but the same height as everyone. It would still give the same effect since not only would he be the only fat kid on the block, he also wouldn't look entirely out of place which is what I and many others have issues with.

Just look at the gifs Yumekichi11 posted. It looks like she's playing with a freaking doll from some gag manga.

In computer terms, a backdoor normally implies intrusion, meaning her files are being accessed. So she isn't hacking Haru, she's probably being hacked. My guess: Taku. I agree with those who believe it is the boyfriend. The blue eyes seem like a dead giveaway to me.

I'd give the episode a 7/10 (or 3/5 for the vote).

+ Technology and animation for it is nice.
+ Supporting characters getting into the story.
+ More plot details

- Haru's voice... especially when he whines and moans.
- Linking is seeming like a cheap way to avoid animating at times.


Overall I enjoyed it, but it is going to need to pick up soon or it may be a drop for me. Have a good selection of shows this season, so the bar is high and this is JUST meeting it.

why does Chiyu like fatboy? surprised mildly she had the boyfriend. apparently though she'd leave him for fatty.

she's so cute, and she's just laying there rather invitingly to a fat guy that's not her bf and all he can think about is looking through her stuff? wow fatboy real mature.

I hope they don't make her an enemy. I like Chiyu way more than the black princess or whatever.

After watching the first two episodes like three weeks ago, I wasn't really convinced of this show's quality. But now- when watching UTW's version of all three episodes- I'm actually really fond of Accel World. It only took me some quality subs to realize the value of this anime and truth be told- I can't wait for the next episode. 5/5
