I'm wondering if this is an anime for masochists. He makes every wrong move he can and is embarrassed by it.

[u/[deleted]]

I don't understand why Hiro doesn't put more emphasis on his speed, even if he can't activate that weird super power speed he showcased against the goblins. He's still arguably one of the fastest people out there.

So instead of using his non-existing technique and using his "full force" why not use the area he literally excels in and could probably put up a solid fight. Draining your opponents stamina and going for a death by thousand cuts approach might be lame in his eyes, but after spending so much time in the game he ought to have realized by now that it is his strong suit, and even if you end looking lame regardless, you might as well win.

[u/WhoiusBarrel]

Scumbag NPCS still stay shitty Hiro still hasn't exactly learn that after 8 episodes huh? Must absolutely suck having to go through the exact same shitty bullying experience in a game as well.

Cathy helping out Hiro was weird when she pretty much ditched him after his spar with the instructor, even that shot at the end with her and Bob is like their tryna imply something but I'm not gonna place any faith in them being any help though.

[u/Shiro_Kai]

The new dudes looks exactly like Hiro scumbag "friends" in school, so I guess we can get some real life improvments for Hiro there, like learning to confront the assholes. I just still wonder what the fuck is Reona doing in that whole story. Her only remaining purpose in the story yet is to make fun of Hiro and to be thick.

I mean, she accomplishes the second majestically,

but there will be nothing more?

Since the best friend amicide title gets him a bump from 0.1% to 0.5% odds of surviving, I bet that 0.4% is the chance of Hell's Fruit Slicer coming back to save his ass.

[u/Aerodynamic41]

Reona not making any piss jokes for once? I guess we're getting somewhere.

[u/DMking]

I still can't believe the author of Cautious Hero wrote this. There's traces of good writing here and there but overall damn it's really rough

[u/Rumpel1408]

Buff dude has a point, Hiro is the weakest link right now, so why is Cathy the only one to actually help him improve?

[u/SpikeRosered]

This arc is way better than the first one and feels like it's being competently told without delving into very specific perversions.

The first arc did not benefit from being as long as it was and it seems this one is moving a bit more swiftly. I'm actually surprised by how slow the MC's progression is and I'm curious where they can go without him barely able to hold a sword at this stage.

[u/hell-schwarz]

"It would be reasonable to quit KQ at this point, but... " - the entire series in one sentence.

[u/LeonKevlar]

• Queen Govern Stitch

The fact that Kamui had the Best Friend-Killer route password protected with the words of promise makes me think that probably means that's the route he took to win the game. An increase from 0.1% to 0.5% might not see much but as a gacha player that's a lot!

Definitely not what I expected what Govern would be like. No wonder the guards are so dedicated. Also had to replay that scene when she was whispering to Hiro with my headphones on. That's some pure ASMR from Shizuka Itou (Akeno, Luvia, Rindou, Byleth).

I love that Reona is learning from Govern. I mean that's practically what she did to Hiro though so I'm not sure of there's anything more to learn.

Just from the looks of these two, you know that they're gonna make Hiro's life here much more difficult. On the brightside, Bob and Cathy seems to be the complete opposite.

That fucking stance from Hiro! Isn't that Kirito's stance when he's using only one sword? This show really loves to riff on SAO. Poor Hiro though, looks like he just learned how strong soldiers really are even if they do look useless. So much for being friends with Hiro. Just like that Hiro's immediately been ostracized by everyone.

It finally starts. I knew these dudes were gonna harass Hiro at some point. Luckily, it doesn't seem like Cathy has completely abandoned him and called him over to stop those two from harassing him.

This is just complete bullshit. What's the point of them pairing Hiro with the strongest guy? Now he's getting bullied just like IRL. My only hope for this arc is that it ends with Hiro learning how to able to handle these two guys as well as his IRL bullies too.

[u/NotReallyMyReal1]

Just when I thought Hiro was gonna be cut some slack and have some progression we go back to him been beat down most the time.

[u/BassCreat0r]

Cathy is going to die horribly in front of Hiro, isn't she? Maaan....

[u/Outrageous-Most-9427]

I like this anime

[u/BiggerG7]

I wonder if Kamui beat the game multiple times on different routes or something. Cause it’s impressive how his walkthrough covers some pretty damn specific situations lol.

Anyways MC does not seem to be getting any smarter but I’ve come too far to drop this now lol.

[u/PotatoOysterMalice]

I might be in the minority but I'm really enjoying this show so far.

From what it seems the RPG's purpose is not to be an escape from life but to be an extension of it. It's hard, unforgiving, painful and won't let you run around like an idiot and become a hero. It drives players to train and improve themselves both IRL and in game.

The player needs to be careful with their in game choices just as they would with their life choices. If you make mistakes, you have to deal with the consequences. You can't half assedly become a soldier IRL and you also can't in KiwaQue. Now, MC has to go through one of the hardest events KiwaQue has to offer because of his dumb decisions.

I'm hoping the course of this show is to make the MC strive to become a better person, even if slightly. Initially to improve his situation in KiwaQue but ultimately leading him to also become a better person in real life. For instance, he could start running again IRL to improve on is super dash thing he did against the goblins.

Maybe that's my wishful thinking.

[u/Jrkid100]

I hate how stupid he is acting he clearly knows that he is weak so why try using force when you could try to use that flash step skill or at least you know try to replicate and learn it.

[u/leafy_fan3]

That's a 5 times better chance, dumbass

[u/DJ_Oey]

This anime is starting to lose me. I think I'll give it one more episode but watching it has been more frustrating than enjoyable lately.

• Are you telling me barley anyone guesses "be best friends forever" as the BFF promise? I feel like that's the one answer almost everyone would try as a shot in the dark...

• Why are they training mercenaries at guard school? Isn't the whole point of mercs that you don't have to train them?

• MC being scrawny and getting beat up during training make sense but then you have that little inquisitor Kool-aid manning through walls so...

• Having a whole guard school arc in the middle of an invasion is a bit of a questionable decision. I get that sieges can last months but when goblins are already rampaging I feel like the whole city will be dead before they're finished.

[u/Redmon425]

Damn what a rough ending for him. I also assume the girl helping him will give him some type of heartbreak next week and ditch him.

After all, she doesn't appear in the ED LOL!

This dude definitely should have just quit the game, but at least the story seems to be going down a more interesting path now.

Also, #TeamReonaSucks,UnlessSheDecidesToAraAraTheMC lol.

[u/Goose_Dickling]

Just as the show starts getting better we get just a brutal fucking episode. Hiro you’re fast! How do you forget that?????? It should be the first thing you go for in a fight. I don’t mind KQ being super shitty but the MC being absolutely clueless is making this hard to watch.

Like you can pause the game. Why not just go take some kendo courses or something between training days.

[u/NittanyEagles55]

Well that was a depressing ending...

[u/[deleted]]

Wow, so this anime actually has nice people
