| Because episode 2 proves that modern anime watchers are too lazy to try understand what they're watching anymore and would just slapdash some absurd comparison with popular gimmicks from other shows their brain most familiar with as a form of "criticism". I mean for example, take the VRMMO commentaries in the discussion thread. The show blatantly tells us that it isn't a VR but surprise, surprise, people here still think that the world is just like SAO or shit like that. |

| Honestly after 2nd episode it gives me more Psycho-Pass and Summer Wars vibes... |
| loved the first episode. one of the few times i like the sci-fi genre, i liked the worldbuilding, i liked the character designs and quirks, i liked the animation, it was a well rounded first episode. and then 2nd episode suddenly it's a game?? and different animation and a completely different story??? it wasn't in the pv nor the description, it's not what everyone signed up for. they just pulled the rug from under out feet and gave us a completely different anime |
| I think some people didn't get, but they are almost all real humans there, this is not SAO it is more like Avatar movie. You can see in the beginning the spaceship above earth the aliens need humans to be alive. And our main character tried to kill him self because he thinks all this sucks. Until he find someone that is not controlled by there system and want to see where this goes. |
| This is getting ridiculous, all the reviews are just about how they felt betrayed by the twist and doesn't look like a generic anime all the time now lmao. (and one of them think its an isekai or something lmao) |

| I just don't get the "rip-off" problem, most popular shows nowadays are rip-offs anyway, why does it matter? In fact, I was looking forward to this show because of its similarity to AoT. That being said, I think people have the right to be angry because of the false advertisement, I feel like I was tricked into a videogame setting and I hate these, but well, I'll still give it a chance. |

Fun fact: It's NOT a video game setting. Thanks for the brief explanation, it's an interesting setting but it still has videogame-like mechanics, or at least that seems to be the appeal of it. I still prefer if they stuck with the original setting, but of course I'm not judging yet. |
Dragonland04 said: I have seen many people bashing on the show to be uninteresting and being an Attack on Titan rip - off , though originally I thought that it might be similar to Attack on Titan thus I have been putting it off since its initial airdate , this is very much different and better than my expectations while I don't really see anything bad about it , why are people talking so much negative about it ? First episode made it seem it was just a clone show of other shows (different people had different theories which). Ep#2 and #3 showed is actually original |

Dragonland04 said: what do you mean? they put focus on a lot of thingsnightcrawlercyp said: Not necessary better but it expands the background of the universe and the main characters in an organic way. okay , thank you though I would prefer if they put a bit more focus on the setiing seen in the 1st episode |
Dragonland04 said: ep3 is mainly on the real humans region nightcrawlercyp said: what do you mean? they put focus on a lot of things I meant as in the 2nd episode , the focus was put on the avatr setting living in the A.I world but I woul;d like to to see the setting as seen in the first episode regarding the design of the physical world |
| I don't like that crap design. Simple, primitive and very cheap like almost all modern western cartoons. I never asked for this. |
| For me personally, the childish art style chosen to animate the cyborgs is one thing that I really dislike about this anime; it makes it hard to take them seriously and is so far in contrast with the other art style and tone of the anime that it makes no sense. However, if you ignore that it's actually a pretty decent anime. |

| I think because of AoT fans who claimed it to be a ripoff of it AND episode 2 that surprised everyone and led the majority to a rushed judgement, but here we are, episode 3, and this anime proved once again that it's more original than anyone thought it was and now I won't be surprised if it kept that up with the upcoming episodes, it has potential and it's definitely the underdog of this season. I am glad I picked it up and I am loving it so far. About E02, it's like a lot of people who complained about it being an AoT ripoff complained again about it being NOT an AoT ripoff once they realized it wasn't, ironic.  |

Goes to show how toxic anime fans really are. I for one love the twist. Im more interested now than ever. So many theories pop in my head where this could go next. |

| Can't believe how people got pissed or felt betrayed because they were "sold something", but the show delivered something else. The surprise is precisely the REASON they didn't show anything about the twist in PVs or images. It's so good to be surprised by a movie, series, anime, book or etc, specially when the twist is good like this one. Weebs have issues with some animes for wrong or dumb reasons tbh. |

| It's far from an AoT ripoff and even if it was, I wouldn't mind that aspect of it. That said, this is still my least favourite show among the ones I'm following this season, and I'm watching Peter Grill this season, so make what you can of it. |
| This anime shit is addictive |
Gunnerz- said: Second episode plot twist ruined the show bro, that’s it It's not a plot twist, it's set up. It was still showed at the end of first episode, to establish how does world of this anime works. |

| Seems like many people dislike the show because they're incapable of putting one and one together. If you're capable of paying attention then there should really be no confusion here. It's ok if someone doesn't like the show because certain aspects don't appeal to them but many complaints I've seen thus far are just nonsense. The direction of the show itself thus far has been extremely predictable: Me after episode one: "These robots / AI things are actually in charge of everything." Episode two: "These robots / AI things are actually in charge of everything." Me after episode two: "Episode three will be a training episode." Episode three: "This is a training episode." Not saying that being predictable is necessarily a bad thing but it undermines all the silly complaints about how the "twist" in episode two comes "out of nowhere". |

Hey all, I have been digging this show since ep 1. However Kaburagi looks a lot like Heybot. And I'm waiting for a Vocab battle in robot land. |
| I don’t hate it but I really don’t like the whole . It’s fucking dumb |

It's a game only for the cyborgs. For every human this is a real threat and they are really losing their lives, not knowing that they're a part of the game. Imo there's nothing dumb about it, it's a very interesting idea. |
ame-furi said: it’s interesting but I just don’t like the little robo dudes and I don’t like the idea that oh there’s a bunch of aliens and they just gamin. I rather just have everyone be a human. Also I don’t really feel like a debate rn, I understand where you’re coming from and it’s definitely interesting. I just personally don’t like it.It's a game only for the cyborgs.

Imo it's a very interesting idea. They're not aliens, they're cyborgs, technically humans who have been turned into cyborgs by the corporation. I believe the different style of graphics with the robo dudes (colorful, peaceful, cartoonish, fake and artificial) is just used as a concept that separates the harsh and hard-to-live world of humans from the free and ideal world of cyborgs, which in reality isn't free and ideal. I think the show has a lot of interesting and unique concepts and ideas, you just need to have an open mind and pay attention to details. But I understand that not everyone appreciates it, since everyone has their own taste. |
