It's so weird seeing one of those Manwha menu screens in an animated form. The exact same blue/white boxes appear everywhere in multiple different Manwha power fantasies so it kind of threw me for a loop seeing it actually moving.

This episode gave me chills just like the first time I read it. They did the Subarashii smile part justice (I wish they gave the statue audio though)

Sung Jin Woo's VA is amazing.
@KahureToast its probably the other world sys and he was there, after death he probably becomes part of that world but another way not as a mob sins hes choice will resurrect him

If you're still hesitant about continuing the anime after watching the first episode, this one would surely pull you in completely! I really think that it would have been better for them to combine the first and second episodes into one.

The statue's smirk is so damn creepy....I love it. Best opening episodes to an anime that I've seen in a while. It's so captivating. The Opening is amazing as well!!

The OP was hype man, it holds that excitement really phew, but more so for me who knew what to expect down the line? However, if I were to say one thing, the ED absolutely fantastic. Such an atmospheric yet vague atmosphere, it's giving me Serial Experiment Lain vibes. But with a dash of hype into it. Imminent dopamine overdose!

I was worried the anime may not be able to portray the brutality and terror that this part of the story would tell. I'm happy to say that fortunately, my worries were for nothing. DAMN!!! The life and death situation was suspenseful as fuck and just moving an inch felt as though your life is forfeited.

Of course, the thing that I want to see m, most is the Statue of God's sinister smile/grin. Oh boy, it is delectably horrifying. I'd say they kinda fumbled it with the usage of a white glowing iris halo. Would've been a tad more stunning had it been red like in the manhwa though that could be argued since the statue colour has a whiter tinge in the anime compared to the blue hue in the manhwa. Nevertheless, that's a sight to behold in all its petrifying glory!!!!!

There's 1 point that I adored in this ep. The way the OST is integrated into the events of the ep was truly awesome at the part where Sung Jin-Woo crawled to the singing statue. That part was truly the zenith of humanity's indomitable spirit.

Utterly predictable. That's all I can say about this episode. Almost every character in the beginning cast has death flags except for the MC, who has obvious plot armor. Personally, I don't care for shows that treat background characters like expendable meatbags. To absolutely nobody's surprise, this episode shows how each character gets picked off one by one in predictably gruesome ways. Color me shocked. It's like watching Attack on Titan all over again; it seems like a show about stupid people dying in stupid ways for stupid reasons.

I can't help but roll my eyes at the utterly pointless bloodshed this show revels in for 'shock' value.

So far the first two episodes didn't impress me much, but I guess the show will change from here on out. At least that usually happens when the protagonist "dies".

Holy fuck, the English dub of scene where he is dying is so good
- Opening visuals are so clean
- I wouldn’t have been able to solve the praise commandment, I forgot some of the statues didn’t have weapons
- Thank god they’re using the same style and colour as the web comic
- I don’t remember him losing his foot, ouch
- That menu got me hyped lmao. God I love trash anime
- The ending animation might be the best I’ve seen in a while. I’m never skipping that, ever

Great episode! Very tense and dramatic (surprised about all of the gore though), and it really reminded me of an old-school D&D trap/puzzle (especially something you might find in a DCC module). I'm not exactly sure what he just unlocked. This series is turning out a lot more interesting than I thought it would be.

Sung made the ultimate sacrifice to stay at his own expense, but I had a feeling there was something very powerful waiting for him and his benefit at the end!

Ok. The writing was a lot less clunky in this episode. I actually enjoyed it a bit.
I really liked the puzzle, I thought that was at least somewhat clever. And that smile is likely going to meet me in my dreams tonight.
I am just not vibing with Jinwoo's "Oh, woe is me" crap. It's getting kind of annoying. I get it, you're weak. You chose to go in there!
Episode 1 had me debating dropping the show, whereas episode 2 gives me hope the show will get better as it progresses.
On to episode 3!
