People still use ANN?

I beat the second half on Hard. Save the True ending, that was a bit too ridiculous on Hard. Came pretty close all things considered, though. Might be able to do it sooner or later.

It's not a dystopia but has elements of one. And the characters are deliberately given some sense of morality that is shown to be flawed. Gon helps people who ask and will blindly defend people he cares about, but he has a very narrow view on who to care about - it's basically just people he likes and won't stop liking regardless of what they do. Killua was raised to be a killer but doesn't really like doing it, but mostly of of disiniterest and wanting to be more normal so he idolizes Gon, despite Gon being pretty abnormal to most people around him. Kurapika has the strongest moral compass but will kill in cold blood if angry enough since he has basically no control of his temper [there's literally a short manga chapter where he wants to leave his village and has to go through a trial to control emotions so people don't find out about his eyes, and he totally fails but his friend cheated forhim, so he gets to leave without learning from the mistake] and has a general unwillingness to build bonds with other people. Leorio has good intentions in becoming a doctor but lacks critical thinking and comes to hasty conclusions. While Leorio and Kurapika have less exposure than Gon/Killua, their are huge casts in a most of thd arcs and the same type of characterization goes on in a plethora of supporting, even minor characters. And that's how the society operates, peopl ed on it can have good intentions and their flaws often get in the way regardless. That's the point. They don't really care about enforcing it. They just don't want everyone to have it. You know what? You're right, the Hunters are absurdly powerful people with little to keep them in check. The.... The protagonists.... didn't get in... They got, like, a quarter of the way there before Killua was like, "Oh, they do care enough to come? Cool, bye fam," and just walked out. It was made pretty clear they would not have made it if they kept going.

There are plenty of competent characters to like. Those ones don't overcome their hardships in large part in-between episodes. Your point was that computers can't hack it because it's a mental image. But if you reverse engineer that line of thought, how did he create it if it's incompatible with existing computers? Not so much to suggest it's impossible to create a new OS, give it a new function of mental images, create a server capable of transmitting a game likely to be hundreds [if not thousands] of terabytes to thousands of people on varying network connections with no latency, and build the game itself by 28 years old isn't "competent." It's defying any reasonable suspension of fisbelief. If it were a silly comedy with a mega-genius that would be one thing, but to act like we should take that seriously is a whole other story. I think you've gone off the rails on your argument. I'm posing counterpoints to your "it's unhackable" argument. It was built with existing technology, or the excessive nomsense outlined in my paragraph above is true. Neither make any sense. And yes, theirs a metric fuckton of code to decipher. Even if it were to be a non-propreitarty code, he'd still have to look through billions of lines of code to find the correct line. You're the one saying it's unique code to the headset, by the way, which only serves to make Kirito's act of transferring it into another item more ludicrous.

It was Bucket. Mystery solved.

No, I can't not. I'm having fun and also lack self-control.

No, Hisoka is just a psycho. Nope, there are several established countries that don't give a fuck about the Hunter's authority. The prisons are mostly non-nen users since nen is deliberately kept a secret to as much of the public as possible. It's not like standard jail would do much to any halfway intelligent nen user. There are plenty of dystopias where jail exists but next to nobody winds up there despite frequent murder. The civillian police force likely won't know much [or anything] about nen, and as a result they'll really suck at their job, and from what little is seen of them they kinda do. Civilian prison is primarily for non-nen users, but if you try applying it to nen users it's basically useless. Hence.... the Hunter Association prohibits teaching normal citizens about nen. It's as much of a counterbalance as realistically possible, but the solution isn't presented as especially effective. Not if they don't enter without permission. It's literally an exaggerated guard dog and last I checked, guard dogs exist and can be pretty dangerous.

Deciphering billions of lines of code.... that are, within your own argument, unhackably unique..... to hack it by the time you're 16.... to save a backup in the form of an entirely new item that must be crreated to be compatible with the completely unique code he's never seen.... mid-deletion.... is.... just not understandable only to.... underachievers...? I.... what? What?

Jesus fucking Christ. You have to be able to display the coding to something before it works. That's how creating an image of any kind via computer happens. Are you to suggest he did the code blind until the device was able to display mental images? That's insane. If he didn't start with a computer, he didn't have anything to input the code to because it doesn't have a fucking screen. This literally is the simplest concept imaginable.

That kind of rating is at least a dozen points too high to be truly Ginguy.

There's a Ginguy anime?!

No, it is a terrible explanation.

I know what it is: Nonsense. I think he's on the rag or something.

You activated my trap card. The effect I win.

If u don't know, ur a virgin pillow humper.

Bigger than yours.

Yeah, but like that's an important detail to, you know, at least imply - showing is better.

Digibro sucks.

Gigguk still exists?

Even then, it feels less out of left field and more like a thing they'd pick specifically for the illusion of diversity in their choices. It's a strange show, sure, but everyone in the anime community seems to have been watching and praising it.

10. Steins;Gate 0 9. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime 8. Saiki K Season 2 7. Seven Deadly Sins Season whatever 6. Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl 5. Voilet Evergarden 4. JoJo Part 5 3. MHA S3 2. AoT S3 Honorable Mention: SAO S3 Hinamatsuri Gintama Overlord S2-3 A Place Further than the Universe 1. Devilman Crybaby How is basically any of this not completely standard whatever's popular? Devilman is the strangest thing on it, but when it came out vietually the whole anime community was calling it anime of the year [even though it's one of Masaaki's weakest, by the way]. It's literally nothing but "people said this was good so we'll say it's good."

Yeah, but what about HxH where assassins are allowed to be Hunters by a chairman eventually highlighted as not especially caring about morals?

That doesn't matter. He has to have built the software using something other than the device itself. We have only a few OS options because creating a new one and getting it on par with even the 90s or early 2000s would take a lifetime. Creating a from-scratch brand new OS to not only match contemporary Windows, Apple, Linux, or whatever but even exceed and transmit mental images on its own is an unreasonable task. You'd have to have to create a new OS, build the extraordinarily complex device to use it, bypass over 50 years of advancements in technology with, by your standards, no help from existing technology, then create a game well beyond modern ability, get it online and capable of sending an entire game far more advanced than modern technology in realtime. That's not even accounting for building an entirely new form of server compatible with the brand new device that's untouchable by existing technology. Even putting in a borderline human AI. By age 28. It also doesn't make sense for it to be produced by a server. You'd have to transmit an entire game to thousamds of people simultaneously. I get that SAO is a future setting but it's not a very well-explored future. It's mostly just now but with cooler video game technology. There's no implication we'd have that kind of server power, that's terabytes of data being sent to an absurd number of people sent nonstop for 2+ years. That would take an absurd amount of energy. With MMOs, or any online game, like with any game, the game is installed to a system. For a older generation like your Atari through PS2(3?), XBox 360 [I think?] or Wii U, the game is on a cartridge or disc. A PS4, XBox One, or Switch, even with cloud save data, the game has to be installed to thd device itself. The reason we don't transmit most games on entirety over online connections is because the majority can still be played locally. With MMOs that's generally not the case, but you still need the device to have the software installed because otherwise it's an unreliable process where anything can go wrong. You lose the server and everyone loses the game itself. Backups, sure, it's still a silly way to do it that lacks understanding of how games function. It also doesn't account for disconnects. It's a similar situation for any of these trapped in a MMO settings, but what if the server goes down [a common occurrence for MMOs]? Does the entire population of players get melted brain syndrome? It's a relatively general problem within the genre that can be mitigated by the introduction of supernatural elements, like Log Horizon where they're actually in the world rather than the game. Suspension of disbelief is one thing, but the dude creating that much is insane and before 30 is fundamentally ludicrous. Even if he were to have a massive team of millions of people, I'm not buying this explanation. The inception of the simplest of computers took about as long as he's been alive.

This game is everything a longtime Peach main could ask for.

Okay, Ben. What did he build the software on the device with? Did he put the device together and the software he made somehow without the use of a computer was ready to go? Just built the headset and the software came preinstalled? Like, how the fuck do you think a virtual reality software is made? It needs some kind of computer to create the programming. He didn't just build the device and have it magically operate with brain pictures he somehow uses to program it. I mean, maybe he did because SAO. And, well, SAO is stupid.
