The Last Person to Post Wins - Qliphoth

[Jammin]

Well that was deep.

I might be missing the bigger picture, but Im quite sure the anime doesn't emphasize on those topics, at least not in S1. Maybe you got those messages since you read the LN.

Still the set up is rather boring. The fact that he has potentially nothing to worry about since he already says "Maybe living here isn't so bad, my real life was shit"... so his "adventures" in that world lack any kind of drive, I dont feel like following his story just because he's cool and gets everything he wants.
I cannot relate to him in any way and much less to the NPCs, which are total stereotypes of anime without life or even identity. They will probably get it, I can see that... but I cannot wait 3 seasons for that to happen if you know what Im saying.

And yet you made me consider trying S2, maybe not now, but I'll give it a shot one day.

No, the anime does get into it. Not as well as the Novels but it does do it. I suspect why you missed it is because the first season really only hits on the first of those things I mentioned. The loneliness. The first episode sets the tone for that part of it.

Most of the rest of it is explored in future seasons.

Mmh, yeah there's some insight into the loneliness, but even so its not a developed topic. He's shown to be nostalgic of the good times with his guild members and talks fondly about them, but even then those moments are so brief and unfocused... the meat of the character is certainly not it but keeping his image as a supreme being, and he actually comes to believe it.

 

[Xadyu]

Uh, yeah, I only saw the first two episodes but the way you describe it, it sounds like a completely different anime.

First two episode were lengthy and boring as fuck.

 

[Farfalla]

And the trip comes to an end ;-;

 

[scav]

cool

 

[Kiki]

Lambie.. You know bout dem coxinhas?

croquetas

actually where is croquetas from? Here we also have croquetas. It's called "kroket" in Indonesian. What is the filling? It's usually potato, carrot, and chicken here

what the fuck. Kroketten are Dutch!

Normal kroketten are with meat though, mostly bovine or calfs-meat. But there's every kind of version you can think of it of course.

Oh so kroket is from Netherlands? as expected from our past relationship

But kroket with meat as filling..

Yeah, it's one of the most-eaten snacks here, we also have them in ball-form, Bitterballen.

Bitterballen.

This word does not inspire confidence in the taste

Hmm, how long has it been since you watched it?

It starts with him holding a farewell party for the game on the night they are going to shut the MMOs servers down. But on that night only one guy of the original 41 shows up. After a bit even that guy gets too tired and says he has to log off because he's got work early tomorrow. He tells the his friend it's fine and bids him farewell while internally desperately wishes for him to stay. Then he goes to the throne room and sits silently with the Albedo some other NPCs as he silently watches the clock count down to midnight. That is a pretty damn lonely scene and is the emotional foundation of the main character.

 

[Farfalla]

Coxinhas are different from croquetes here tho. Coxinhas are made of potatoes and usually filled with chicken and cream cheese. Croquetes are made with bread, milk and meat in Brazil.

Lambie.. You know bout dem coxinhas?

Food there was good right? Did you ever cook them all some gnut specialty?

Farf, you all got back home safely? Evil prolly still in flight, bigger distance.

 

[Shobu_Yoruichi]

No... I don't know what that is

Well... typhoons happen and trash can be found everywhere. It's pretty normal around here. We're not really as rich or organize as other countries.

Damn...

Yea, here is the same.

I am a zombie right now, slept like 1 hour. Fuck... i want to fuck

Gonna wait for Hardy to write his impressions on you

And lol, good recap on funny episodes. Props.

Hardy: Mari, do you know what this building is?

Me rn:
-Mari I didn't get the building one.
-It was the...

Actually the original "croquettes" were born in France, but later they became a top dish from Netherlands and Spain.

And yeah, coxinhas do have a different elaboration. Mmmmm, now I feel like doing croquetas soon, my mother is the true master though.

That is a pretty damn lonely scene and is the emotional foundation of the main character.

That scene does show loneliness, but what I mean is that there's not much emphasis on the topic afterwards. After that I only remember him thinking about it when he was with the dead-meat party members in the night... around the middle point of the season.

He is lonely, but its not a point thats developed enough for me to care about it. He's more worried about conquering the world and expanding his name (cause he wants to get found, yeah sure)

I would probably need to read the LN to see what you mean though, the anime definitely didn't give me those vibes of depth.
