Before you ask, this is probably VRMMO, not isekai, but it's ambiguous. And they're just playing a game, they're not trapped in it. They can log out whenever they want.

Ray Starling
Voice: Soma Saito
After passing his entrance exams, he finally got to play Infinite Dendrogram. Mild-mannered but with a strong sense of justice, he'll throw himself into danger if need be. The Embryo that hatched from him took the form of a girl named Nemesis.
Nemesis
Voice: Yuko Ono
Ray's Embryo (Type: Maiden w/Arms).
She usually takes the form of a girl in a gothic dress, but can transform into a weapon at will. Contrary to her haughty, pompous facade, she actually scares quite easily. Also she's a tiny bit of a glutton.
Shu Starling
Voice: Satoshi Hino
Ray's beary important brother
He walks around in a full-body bear costume in Infinite Dendrogram because he accidentally made his avatar identical to his real-life self. This furry friend is a bit of a goofball, but he's invaluable to Ray.
Rook Holmes
Voice: Makoto Koichi
An insanely handsome young man.
He's a tactical genius in matters of observation and analysis. Despite his innocent nature, his in-game Job is "Pimp". He teams up with Ray as they're both newbies. His avatar is almost identical to his real self.
Babylon
Voice: Yuki Takada
Rook's Embryo (Type: Guardian).
An air-headed succubus, her sexual powers are sealed away by the fact that Rook is a minor. Thus her seduction is limited to lap pillows and massages. Her food preferences are unholy, often combining sweets with spice.
Hugo Lesseps
Voice: Ayumu Murase
A "High Pilot" from the Dryfe Imperium.
He's quite the gentleman, with a strong sense of personal justice much like Ray. He cannot overlook foul deeds, even if they're in a foreign land, which is what leads him to joining Ray on a certain quest.
Cyco
Voice: Yui Ogura
Hugo's Embryo (Type:Maiden w/ Chariot)
A snarky, sharp-tongued young girl who travels alongside Hugo. Her tracking abilities are quite high, and she's dependable in an emergency. Her body is pure white, and she prefers to eat food that is equally white.
Marie Adler
Voice: Yoko Hikasa
A player with the job of "Journalist"
She works for the Dendrogram Information Network (DIN). She doesn't like to mince words, and projects an all-business attitude even down to her attire. Even so, there's a lot about her shrouded in mystery...
Girls named Nemesis are great.
Will she be using her Lessar voice?
Wish we knew what studio's doing it or when it's airing. Probably Fall at the earliest. But I'm glad it's looking decent,
>LN designs
The only bad part is that it looks generic as fuck. It'll be nice to finally get more of this though, since manga translations were dead for so long. Doesn't help that the manga also got licensed, so translators pussied out. Can't wait though.
Taiki art just doesn't preserve very well when adapted into something that is practical to animate. His style relies a lot on multishaded color and very little on outlines. Which is really bad for animating in a cost-effective manner. I do think that the manga designs would have been easier to animate, but ultimately the anime is being made to promote the light novel, not the manga.
I really hope we get Marie vs Composer dude and it gets proper justice done instead of sped through for more time on the Hugo fight.
I'm really doubtful the anime will even get that far. Unless the sponsors are putting fuck you money into it, it'll be 1 cours not 2, and with only 1 cours to work with trying to do 5 volumes while giving sufficient weight to events would make it insanely rushed.
>Doesn't help that the manga also got licensed, so translators pussied out
Personally I think the translator was just looking for an excuse to quit, since he spent more time playing GBF than translating anyway.
>his in-game job is "Pimp"
Log Horizon's Prostitute subclass all over again
There's a prostitute job and it's r-18, you can also impregnate AIs if you stay logged in for like 3 days real time.
They are putting enough money in to have 2D monsters instead of CG, so I'm gonna keep my hopes up. 2D monsters carries a lot of weight for the project, shows that they care.
It's a tamer class focusing on females, the kid legitimately has a harem of girl monsters (not monstergirls)
Audrey best girl
There's also a Harlot class for male monsters.
Not mentioned on the bio: gacha and gambling addict
That leads to some interesting mental imagery.
pfffft. Second place to Liz bro. Here lemme give you this so you can go down to the store and buy some taste.
Isn't saying Cyco's an embryo in the bio sort of a spoiler?
and a big one
Not really that big, honestly. You find out about her soon after she's introduced, and as with most spoilers involving secret identities in Dendro, the author doesn't exactly try that hard to hide it.
Still shouldn't put it in a bio, assuming that detail is actually in there and not something added by OP.
As far as I can tell from my limited moon that detail is not actually in the bio and OP added it.
hopefully there's not too much cancerous 3DCGI, the source material is too good to waste on something like that
will the first season make it all the way to the butchered children?
clothing design looks gay as fuck
just wait until he goes full EDGE
We have character design for Hugo and Cocytus so it will definitely get that far at least.
Here's hoping we get at least one shot of Ray in his full unintentional edgelord regalia at some point.
>Yoko Hikasa
Best girl
They've also announced a new spin off manga featuring Juliet and Chelsea, two minor characters from the Franklin Game arc. they seem really confident in wanting to make this franchise grow and succeed.
Should mention that they all want to get the human transformation skill so they can fuck him.
Remind me who are they?
Random players that were with Rook in his fight vs Hugo?
Number 4 and number 8 ranking PvP duelers from Gideon. Both have form 6 embryos. Juliet is the chuuni gothloli.
I remember now, thanks
What could Prostitute class do in LH?
When was this mentioned? I didn't even know there was a human transformation monster skill. Plus they would be stopped from fucking by the R18 restriction anyway.
I still can't tell if I hate vrmmo or isekai shit more.
I can't wait to see this
>the author doesn't exactly try that hard to hide it
Foreshadowing in the series has gone way too meta with Ray walking through all the flags left and right. Specially with last volume's 'game might be made lol aylmao' reveal.
Character designs look like an aborted child of Tales series.
Only aborted?
Vol 6 or 7 but I could be wrong? I think it's when Rook goes to get Liz. The tranny pimp's maid uses it turning back in to a dragon to fly off afterward. Audrey and Marilyn resolve they're going to do everything they can to learn it.
Oh look, it's the QUALITY version of Dantalian episode 9.
I wonder if Steiner is in this thread.
>“Now, then. Master Rook, Babylon, Marilyn, Audrey, and Liz,” she said. “I hope we can meet again.”
>“How will you go the capital? Dragon Carriage?” Babi asked, making Rubiella silently chuckle.
>“This body of mine will be more than enough,” she said, and a second later, two large wings sprouted from her back.
>As soon as I noticed that they were draconic, she flapped them and rose up to the clouds, where her appearance suddenly changed. She was now a large dragon emitting a crimson light that I could easily see from the surface.
>Rubiella, the crimson dragon that could use Anthropomorphization, waved goodbye to us by spinning in the air and then flew off towards the capital, looking truly majestic in the process.
>“KIEEE!” (“Hey, turtle. I’m gonna try and get Anthropomorphization, too.”)
>“VAHMOO!” (“What a coincidence. I was thinking the same thing.”)
>Audrey and Marilyn seemed to be quite impressed by what Rubiella had just shown us.
Volume 3 Rook side-story.
If he is, tell him to hurry up and get part 3 out.
I could barely recognize Ray in those clothes
Ray's hair seems to have less volume than in his LN design.
>not wearing edgy clothes
I've never met this man in my life
I bet only vol 1 and 2 will be animated.
>paladin mc
BASED
That would be for the best if it's only 12 episodes
Better than 1-5 in 1 cour.
Though, the fact they got a new spin-off manga means they're banking on it becoming a big franchise. Even if it's only 1 cour, it'll probably get an S2 sooner than later.
Fuck, even Smartphone got one.
This is your holy knight. Say something nice about him.
Ending at GauzMaize feels flat, tha only way to do Dendro anime justice is all the way to Franklin's Game in 2cours or bust, they could put all the side stories in OVAs or BD extras.
God I hope it's 2 cour because then it'll end at a perfect spot with Ray fighting off a major villian, showing off some cool superior embyro powers for the rest of the cast and having major stakes.
If they end it with 1 cour we'll just get Ray killing a gruesome Lich and that'll be a lame way to end the story.
>Fuck, even Smartphone got one.
What, an S2? As far as I know they haven't announced any such thing.
Ending at Gouz-Maise at least would have a conclusion and character development of some kind, that's when Ray has his conversation with loli Gardranda so we have some measure of what drives him which is as good as any a development.
I hope Baldr looks cool.
>What, an S2? As far as I know they haven't announced any such thing.
I could've sworn they did, but I'm not finding anything now.
Probably confused it for some other Isekai No. 15356.
>1 cour only
>gattling form seen in PV
>tank form os offscreen when he's cleaning up ghe worms
>White Base mode is just a silhouette in Marie's video
Pray for 2 cours.
Why no studio reveal?
Probably still not going to air until Fall.
>butchered children?
Ugh more Overlord bullshit?
Yeah, given that, I'm expecting the first cour to end either right before or right at the end of Franklin's Game.
Just a dumb asshole Lich trying to attach a Paladin with undead kids
attack*
>first cour to end at the end of Franklin's game
That would be horrible.
>Embryo
Is that another word for wife?
Every player gets a unique gear called an Embryo that shapes itself based on the user's psyche and has unique capabilities. Think of it like a Jojo Stand. So these range from a gun that turns into a land battleship, a mechanical animal orchestra, an infinite monster factory, a revolver that summons monsters that the user draws on their bullets, a magic cat, an invisible murderhobo, or a waifu.
The common Embryo types are Type:Arms (weapon), Type:Guardian (nonhuman living being), Type:Chariot (vehicle), Type:Castle (building), and Type:Territory (power affecting an area). And there's also the rarer Type:Maiden (waifu). And some other types which are spoilers.
What the fuck happened?
and as a result many major fights come down to Embryo compatibility and battles between concepts rather than due to simple powerlevel numbers.
Actually sounds pretty cool.
>an invisible murderhobo,
Who?
>Start playing game to get personal cute girl
>Get superpowered hut
>Her body is pure white, and she prefers to eat food that is equally white.
Arms-type Embryos:
>Masters with this type of Embryo tend to be courageous and unafraid to be hurt, and are reckless, foolish, emotional and hot blooded.
Guardian-type Embryos:
>Masters with this type of Embryo are cowardly, afraid to be hurt and desire someone to protect them.
Chariot-type Embryos:
>Masters with this type of Embryo are indecisive, liars and tend to follow the crowd.
Castle-type Embryos:
>Masters with this type of Embryo are introverted, gentle, careful, cooperative and have an artisan's temperament.
Territory-type Embryos:
>Masters with this type of Embryo have a lust for control, tend to hoard their stress, create rules for themselves, and are self righteous lone wolves.
In volume 7 Rook catches a Master whose Embryo is a monster that is completely undetectable by any sense or skill. she naturally used it to go on a phantom thief + murderhobo spree.
As far as the characters can tell, the way to get a Maiden Embryo is by seeing the game world as a place just as real as Earth. (it *is* heavily implied that it's not just a normal game)
Though you might instead end up with a Type:Guardian Embyro based on a humanoid monster, or something themed around coveting.
>>Masters with this type of Embryo are cowardly, afraid to be hurt and desire someone to protect them.
>>Masters with this type of Embryo are indecisive, liars and tend to follow the crowd.
Not sure which one I would get.
>Masters with this type of Embryo tend to be courageous and unafraid to be hurt, and are reckless, foolish, emotional and hot blooded.
In other words people who should be strung up and shot
Who /territory/ here?
>The most common type of Embryo.
That's not beary nice.
>retards are the most common type of human being
hmmm
Brainlets must be purged.
Rare categories (spoilers):
>Type:Maiden
A category for an Embryo that takes the form of a human female. This type of Embryo is always a hybrid with one of the five basic types from the beginning. It tends to emerge due to a sense of crisis. The ability of this type of Embryo are usually focused on the concept of 'giant killing': concentrating power on a single point and defeating the 'strong' under limited conditions. Said 'strong' can be defined as a certain kind of opponent, or even a concept. Masters with this type of Embryo believe, somewhere in the back of their mind, that Infinite Dendrogram is not a game and that lives here have the same weight as lives in the real world.
>Type:Apostle
A category for an Embryo that takes the form of a human male. This type of Embryo is always a hybrid with one of the five basic types right from the beginning. It tends to emerge due to a sense of duty. They will dedicate themselves wholeheartedly to their masters missions, regardless of it's morality. Less than 0.1% of all Embryos have the type. The ability of the type of Embryo are usually focused on the concept of 'Dominator'(世界掌握): Taking control of a part of the world and transforming it into a world that benefits them. This differs from the Type: Territory in that rather than invoking the ability inside an area, it dominates the phenomenon inside the designated area. It is extremely easy for this Embryo to grow and acquire powerful abilities, so in return it does not grant a status correction to it's Master. Masters with this type of Embryo despise Infinite Dendrogram
>Type:Body
A category for an Embryo that takes the replaces the users body. Unlike the prosthetic organs found in Type:Arm Embryo category, the Type: Body replaces the entire avatar with something else. This category is even rarer than Type: Apostle. Due to it's great rarity, no specific tendencies has been observed in it's masters, but it is believed that they must be able to imagine themselves being replaced by something else.
You need to be actually mentally unstable to get a maiden/male equivalent of it, must play with the pain setting on and believe the world is more than a game.
>Masters with this type of Embryo despise Infinite Dendrogram
What a bunch of faggots.
Ray doesn't have the pain on, so I don't think that's required
What Embryo would /r9k/ get?
I want more Figaro
Where's my TAS crossover
Designs look pretty good and the same for the VAs (dunno about Nemesis' though).
Guardian or Chariot
Not just the category, what does it look like? What does it do?
That last requirement makes zero sense, how do you have a sense of duty but hates the game?
So...does Cyco turn into a Fighter Jet?
That's only there because the only two Apostle owners we know of both hate Dendro and because Shu assumed that was their common trait.
That's a shitty sample size. Not to mention one of them is starting to like it.
Duty towards another player. There's also ways to benefit from ID even if you don't like playing it.
gundam
If Guardian, definitely looking like a giant frog.
Does it look like Wing Zero?
Cute chuuni
She turns into armor around an existing mecha. IIRC she fights Devilman and Kamen Rider.
New volume when? I want to see the Hell General in action.
Are there any images around?
>What Embryo would /r9k/ get?
"It tends to emerge due to a sense of crisis. The ability of this type of Embryo are usually focused on the concept of 'giant killing': concentrating power on a single point and defeating the 'strong' under limited conditions. Said 'strong' can be defined as a certain kind of opponent, or even a concept. Masters with this type of Embryo believe, somewhere in the back of their mind, that Infinite Dendrogram is not a game and that lives here have the same weight as lives in the real world."
I think this means /r9k/ all get Maidens
The one who got this type of Embryo starts to play the game to shit on her boyfriend who ditched her to play the game.
And all the Maidens leave their /r9k/ masters for Chad players.
>still no side story on the weirdo country
author.....
How does Yea Forums feel about the ayy lmao reveal?
Looks like he made the right decision
what is the appeal of VR stories?
It's just bunch of people playing games, there's no real drama involved
t. someone that won't get a maiden embryo
Well the world is fake and nothing it matters, not the lives of people suffering injustice and everyone is in for epic lewts
Isn't it still ambiguous? The extracontinental vessel could just be backstory written into the game by the devs.
Poor user, you'll never get an Embryo waifu like that. Sucks to be you.
Spoken like a true Hell General.
Ray is for Franklin!
iirc, you can end up with multiple types, as embryos have multiple stages they gain over time
But can a waifu embryo turn into a dude?
Maybe if it was a Type:Maiden with Guardian?
Degenerate roleplayer.
It's hilarious.
>Type:Apostle
Are these WN-only for now?
This means we can have Dendro threads!
but with anime secondaries
I’m okay with it as long as it is a good adaption since I like the novel and it needs justice
What does Steiner have to do with ID?
Translating the novels.To be honest, my only connection to ID is him. Still debating picking it up.
>“It’s what causes Maidens... no... what causes Embryos to be what they are,” Kaguya said. “It’s a meaningless function that has already been lost... but it still exists in Maidens and Apostles.”
>“Apostles?” Nemesis raised an eyebrow. She had never heard of such a category before.
>Kaguya ran her mind through her memories and spoke. “While we are the products of a sense of danger, Apostles are the products of a sense of duty. The function remains solely in Embryos that can only be owned by those whose will isn’t vague.”
In terms of one of them actually showing up, yes. They were mentioned in volume 6 though.
In terms of
Do we know which studio is running the show? The PV only had shots from episode 1, and I'm not too optimistic about the animation quality.
>parts 1-2 of vol 9 out a week ago
>part 3 nowhere on JNC release schedule
reminder that masters are a goddamned blight on all existence
oh, my mistake. parts 1-2 were out last wednesday, not last monday
still
No, just the director named in the OP. And most of the projects he's directed lately were for Production IMS which went bust last year so no good clues there.
There'll probably be another PV, most likely a voiced one, before it airs. Since we don't have a airing date yet, I'd say it's a safe bet that it won't air before october at earliest, so they probably don't have much beyond episode 1 done yet I guess.
Oh, he's working for JNC? I didn't know that.
>我は偽証より黄金を紡ぐ (ルンペルシュティルツヒェン)
>I shall weave perjuries into gold (Rumpelstiltskin)
>Straw-into-Gold, Rumpelstiltskin
I can understand the troubles from translating chuuni phrases, but still
He freelances for a bunch of different companies. It's kinda hard to keep track of where he's working at times.
>Normally, to get an army this powerful, you would have to sacrifice an entire town, if not more. I assume these are all Demi-Dragon tier?
>……今回のコストは亜竜一匹かそこらだろう？
I assume the cost for this Regiment is just one Demi-Dragon?
Is anime Japan over already? Or will there be some more announcements?
They edit the stuff when porting from the prepubs to volume releases, so that'll probably get fixed.
PV looks pretty bad.
Earning your Embryo is basically the first few days in game and the base form is based on how you feel at the time, it's also why Maiden's are so rare since you have to see the world as real from day one as opposed to it feeling real 400 hours in.
From behind I though this dude was wearing plate armor on some jeans and sneakers
So Ray Superior Paladin Job or Superior Dead Soldier Job?
Dead Soldier lets him smack people with VIM after dying so probably that.
I half expect the final dead soldier job just to give you no minimum HP and as long as a body part can move you'll keep going.
are these some motherfucking WN spoilers
I'll make a thread when it airs for the death of comfy dendro threads
everyone is invited
After being melted by his own stomach acid, Ray became a Sorcerer and went out to grind, only to get captured by a Legendarian named ZZZ.
Thanks user, im looking forward to it
>literally pic related
Why does this not have a sequel, that ending left a hole in me
Now you know how Leigie feels whenever he's not too lazy to feel things.
Iyo
>Liegie with eyes open and using magic.
Most misleading cover of all time.
> not in bed or lying down
What have they done to him
Director has been affiliated largely with White Fox in the past, so possibly them.
Either them or Silver Link would be my guess.
>Silver Link
and all my hype is gone
Delicious Nemesis midriff
Like I said, just a guess. They've put out some good work in the past, better them than JC Staff if nothing else. Or whoever's doing Arifureta.
Man, I just want my special snowflake gear and go adventuring with other special snowflakes.
>animation looks like garbage even in the PV which is supposed to attract
>tells you nothing about the story other than "le vrmmo anime". trite and uninteresting.
yeah I'll pass
Episode Superior when
>le
begone foul scum
What is that?
>ywn get your own uniquely-suited Embryo that serves as a reflection of yourself
It hurts.
>as a reflection of yourself
We would hate each other with the power of a supermassive blackhole.
>blackhole
A giant minotaur that follows me around telling me to write yet I never do.
Is there any WN translations? I'll even suffer MTL if it means I get more CONTENT
Eh, I liked Oniai.
you too?
Mordenkainen's magnificent mansion is nothing to scoff at.
there are 8 LN volumes translated well already
what is the appeal of slice of life stories?
It's just a bunch of people living their lives, there's no real drama involved.
So what's the price Ray has to pay to summon a red-skinned boxer goblin loli?
If you need drama to care about things no argument the other side presents will convince you.
Yeah I know, I've been keeping up with JNovel, but the WN is a lot farther so I'd like to read those if I could.
Losing his dick for 3 days.
The WN was never translated more than one or two chapters. Your best bet is to MTL it, or convince someone do pick it up in the knowledge that their work will be superseded.
Could be worse.
Having to listen Chika Dance constantly for 3 days.
The goblin will stalk him for a month.
1 pint of semen
At least it's not an egg
The egg will only hatch when that player comes out of his shell.
Very deep.
>a knight with his personal mini-fort using a slingshot to kill goblins
Yes, this is the life.
>videogame anime
yawn
Thats how dendro would work user. Hookman gets a hook because of his desperate desire to hook up with a chick. Slingshot Knight is a recluse that feels safest in his room. Barrier Mage keeps others at a distance and never lets anyone get close.
>Monster factory player desires to birth bigger and badder monsters
Whew.
Meant to use a different image.
The fact that she's literally his next door neighbour on the same floor is still funny to me.
The PV gives me hope the bosses won't be horrible CGI abominations
>CGI
user, the CGI tyranny is over. Say hello to our new rotoscopic overlords. Aku no Hana died for them.
youtube.com
She also apparently has a RSK plastic model in her room. Just imagine the amount of hatesex they would have.
It would be like a third nuke.
The obssession, it burns.
I mean, would you fuck genderbent hitler or stalin if they were cute? She's a complete goddamned despot that deserves to rot in real life prison forever.
Yes, cuteness is justice.
>he wouldn't
ur a fgt
Reiji is surrounded by loonies both in the game and in real life.
All three of them are bugfuck insane.
At least Reiji believes he's a normal and average kid.
Those are the worst ones though, whenever someone has to call themselves normal you know there's something very wrong with them.
Compared to his former-child-actor martial artist millionaire brother and his action hero globe-trotting sister, sure.
and rook is a pubescent james bond
I'm quite convinced that there's not actually a single normal person in that entire universe, and that every soul living in it is like this.
There are normal people somewhere this story just happens to be about a bunch of absolute whackjobs playing an mmo.
Sounds like a fun world to live in.
Mary is also Superman.
What's her kryptonite?
Marie is probably the most normal member of the cast besides Ray.
Marie is a lazy mangaka in eternal hiatus IRL, Hugo is a normal cute french middle school girl with family issues IRL.
Fujinon, Kasumi, and Io are three normal high school girls who game together.
Aren't they filthy fujos? That's abnormal.
Is it gay for Hugo and Ray to be in a relationship when their avatars are both male?
Nah, women being filthy fujos is normal.
Why don't they just log out?
Because if they log out too soon their AI wife won't get pregnant.
You can't charge people with murder or war crimes for a videogame, user.
Even if there are human-level AI?
Sapient or hard AI are a whole can of worms modern ethics isn't prepared to handle.
>“You are by far the most tense person I’ve ever met. It feels like you’re completely on-edge, even when we’re just talking like this.”
>This impression had reached its peak back at the room with the portrait... and right now too, actually. She seemed on the verge of breaking or bursting, yet she was still giving her all to fulfill her duties.
>It made me want to support and protect her. Sitting by and just watching her waste away like this would leave a bad taste in my mouth, surely.
>“In my heart of hearts, I just want to support and protect you,” I said. “There’s nothing more to it.”
Ray may be on the Nemesis route, but hell if I wouldn't support an Azurite route if offered.
Because we're talking about real things
VR is all fake, even the people in them are fake, they're even fake inside the fiction itself
There's no motivation other than lulz for them to play the game and that in itself is fucking retarded story telling
I much prefer that sort of interaction over the SAO "lol you're trapped in the game and if you die in the game you die for real" gimmick.
they're both really good girls
My new sword loli fix. Also best girl.
What was your old fix? Blade Dance?
You just posted her.
Great taste, though it's not really possible to go wrong with any of the Antimagic heroines.
We still have mahjong anime even though mahjong is fake.
>VR is all fake, even the people in them are fake, they're even fake inside the fiction itself
But is it really?
Nemesis is not exactly "token," is she?
Either way, looking good.
A side story series focused on Superiors.
The first one is about the humble beginnings of Shu and Figaro. Specifically their first UBM fights mentioned in volume 3.
The second is the Rook/Gerbera story. We got it in volume 7.
The third is a better look at Gerbera's life in the gaol. We're getting it in volume 10.
The fourth is probably the best chunk of Dendro so far, mainline or otherwise: the prequel about the Gloria fight. We're getting it in volume 11.
The state of Episode Superiors is generally good, but it's a crime we don't have the first one yet, as it's crucial Shu/Figgy development.
Finally the good SAO clone
Yeah the only decent one is
The supporting cast is overwhelmingly female imo.
If you ask me, it's a majority, but not an overwhelming one.
>every VRMMO is SAO
It's true though. The only exception is .Hack because it came out the same time as SAO's conception
Every isekai is Narnia
*Alice in Wonderland
"NPCs are real people" is literally Alicization.
Log Horizon did it first with Landers.
Star Ocean 3 is older than Alicization
>dead soldier
This should be translated as DEATH TROOPER
Don't give Steiner ideas
Alicization started 15 years ago.
True.
There's actually a 100-page side story about the dude with the egg. It's insanely powerful.
>15 years ago.
Yeah nah fuck off, there's no fucking way SAO is that old
>SAO started being published in 2002
You're right, it's even older than that.
Oh user. It's even older than that. It was written back in 2001
What the fuck. Why did it get an adaptation back in 2012 then?
The gaol server sounds like a great shitposting environment to just play while having fun with PvP and not worry about laws and geopolitics and tians. Why don't more people get themselves sent to gaol?
I'm pretty sure programs/simulations being real is at least a few decades older than even SO3 anyway. It's basic Sci-Fi that doesn't depend on game settings to be a thing.
They wouldn't know about the gaol before getting there, and it's generally discouraged.
Who would win in a counterattack fight?
Yeah but this is specifically anime and otaku medium
The A.I.s because they're not human
Cheeky motherfucker
Where?
Come on, what does the egg or embryo do.
It's not available in English due to it being exclusive to Bookwalker. It'll probably never be translated, unfortunately.
It's called Gaia, Cradle of Life. The player pushes it around as he fights to gestate the egg, then it hatches into a completely random allied monster and is replaced by a new egg. He can basically push the stroller around the battlefield and hatch a monster army of completely randomized creatures of varying strengths.
This sounds like exactly the kind of thing that fan translations used to solve.
I'm guessing the player must have been a gacha game addict.
Cool shit.
The nice thing about infinite dendrogram is that everyone gets OP powers. The funny thing is that even though you wont get a cute Maiden embryo, you'll love whatever you get instead since it fits your personality and taste the most.
Copying my old post about these.
The chain dude is Grimms, and his Embryo is Chthonian. It digs through the ground and pops out like pictured. Great for surprise attacks.
The egg dude is Asuma, and his Embryo is Gaia. It's basically a monster gacha that opens up when he fights while holding on to it for long enough. Like all gacha, can produce both junk and gold.
The magic circle girl is Sonya, and her Embryo is Clock-o-dile (based on the croc from Peter Pan.) It blows up anything within it that moves, even if it's the Master. Tricky to use, but powerful.
Sonya's also IRL friends with Yuri. They go to the same school in France. She's a transfer student from Bulgaria. Though they bond over their love for the game, Yuri hasn't even revealed that she's from Dryfe or that she plays a guy.
How the heck would you even go about coding something like this?
Dendrogram is entirely maintained and programmed by seven advanced Control AIs. They (allegedly) built the world, its history, and its functions.
So what do the waifu embryos do when the players logout? Do they just vanish? Or do they hang around and chill as NPCs?
Trapped in limbo.
How can a game have a history before it started?
Damn, there goes the potential for NTR doujinshis.
It's assumed they started the world at the beginning and then sped up time until it reached the current setting. But it's also possible that it's an isekai.
It's possible that ayy lmaos did it.
The game has X3 time dilation compared to IRL, so time doesn't run the same rate. Could be like SAO Alicization where the "game" was allowed to run at *1000000 speed for a while and let the AIs build their own civilizations before dropping real people in.
Can't be that. The antagonist of Volume 7 has memories of thousands of years before the game started.
>Thefive-minute hypothesisis a skeptical hypothesisput forth by the philosopher Bertrand Russellthat proposes that the universe sprang into existence five minutes ago from nothing, with human memoryand all other signs of history included. It is a commonly used example of how one may maintain extreme philosophical skepticismwith regard to memory.
It's mentioned a couple times how Dendro is insanely ahead of the rest of the world's VRMMOs for some unknown reason. There's a bunch of conspiracy theories about it IRL.
Yeah. Isn't it used in hospitals to give terminal patients more time to 'live'?
This is literally SAO AIDS-chan arc.
Let's settle this
strawpoll.me
Maybe she should have used the time to impregnate AIs too
This seems horrifying.
None of the above. It's a light novel you eejit.
What if he dropped the egg, would it break?
Embryos are the one thing that is indestructible, everything else can break or get stolen.
Wrong. Embryos can be destroyed, they just respawn like their Masters.
And MVP rewards are generally the same.
I'm glad there is no isekai thread refugees in this thread
Wasn't there something about embryos getting destroyed messing with their development
Some players think getting the Death Penalty slows their evolution.
Fuck off. We don't need smug assholes like you here.
This PV looks like trash to be honest. A shame because I like the LNs.
Why is that? It looks better than the Smartphone and the Master of Ragnarok PVs at least.
Whenever an anime MC does that eyes closed shouting head bobbing up and down thing at 0:55 I know for sure the director has no idea how to depict human emotions
Imagine having
>Sakura petals dance through the air in this city made of wood. A Japanese-style castle looms high above it.
>Tenchi: the land of blades.
>Subtle elegance hangs in the air of these mountains. A large river flows for all eternity through its valleys.
>Huang He Empire: the land of the hermits.
>Black smoke rises from countless factories and forms a cloud that blocks out the sky. On the ground is a modern day city made of steel.
>Dryfe Imperium: the land of machines.
>Bazaars nestle up to a giant oasis, surrounded by desert as far as the eye can see.
>Caldina: the commercial city-state union.
>Made from connecting countless large ships together, this man-made landmass floats in the middle of the open sea.
>Granvaloa: the maritime nation.
>At the base of Yggdrasil deep in the forest, elves, fairies, and demi-humans live in this secluded garden of flowers.
>Legendaria: the homeland of fairies.
to choose from, but being such a massive faggot that you decided to start with
>Surrounded by castle walls is a Western fantasy town, with a white limestone castle at its center.
>Kingdom of Altar: the land of knights.
instead.
Deus Vult motherfucker
It's not Shu's fault he started with a faulty AI.
Ray had to go meet his brother at Altar.
Even if you excuse those two, the entire rest of the faction's players are still faggots.
How? Tenchi is just as bad. And Huang He is just gonna be full of chinks.
Well it's a generally accepted fact that superior players are all weirdos. Like the lolishota guy.
Such a shame it didn't end with them becoming literally one.
Let's be honest, if the cast's main region was set to most of those options, anons would just make thinly veiled racial stereotype jokes (Tenchi, Huang He, Caldina), or about how unoriginal the setting is (Altar and Caldina for isekai). Having the main story set in Dryfe or Granvaloa would be pretty cool admittedly, though.
Altar and Legendaria, that is.
How much time in the gaol would you get for raping a tian until she was pregnant?
It was a web novel between 2002 to 2008, and only started getting published in 2012 (which then started the whole trend of publishers picking up random web novels)
That's why the author took more inspiration from old school games like Ultima Online, and not some WoW-clone.
Why rape?
Just go to Caldina and buy a slave.
>published in 2012
2009, fuck me.
That's not as fun.
>embryo that lets him lolify people
Best embryo ever.
Because after many years of it being a WN, the author was finally noticed by a big boy publisher when Accel World won a competition. He got a publishing contract for AW, and Dengeki Bunko decided to pick up SAO alongside AW in a package deal. They made bank.
With this fucking setting, it reminds me of some Rance comments where the creator wanted to make the story again but with Rance starting in different locations instead.
How different would Dendro be depending on which land Ray chooses?
I remember when they were trying to make AW a big deal, only to goddamn sao blow up
cursed timeline.
Altar would've already been Anschluss'd by Dryfe because of Franklin.
For one thing, in any starting faction other than Altar Ray probably wouldn't have become a Paladin, since he got the job by nepotism.
Made me scroll down the entire goddamn thread.
No no no, this is a dendro thread, and we don't take over dendro threads, as dendrofags have been nothing but kind to us.
Personally I don't see much wrong with it. If Mondaiji's taught us anything there's no need to draw lines outside of airing time.
Maybe he shouldn't have made AW's MC design to be a goddamn Southpark character.
>we
But he's right, no need to do it.
Wasn't there some in-universe reason? Or am I remembering something wrong?
Doesn't seem to White Fox-esque. It looks slightly better than what Silver Link would do with an isekai light novel thing. It's most likely from a literal who studio or two studios collaborating.
*too
Nah, the art style just exagerated the MC's features to the point that he was a knee-height ball of fat, despite being described as closer to average in height canonically, and people were justifying it as the anime trying to portray his self-image, and not how he actually looked.
I never saw any kind of evidence for that claim, but that's what people were saying.
>two studios collaborating
Please be this. Dendro has so much potential to be AOTY (or at least IOTY).
Atleast it's not Isekai.
If the ayy lmao theory is correct, it might be.
Supposedly his exaggerated cartoon bloat appearance is supposed to reflect how he views himself and his poor self esteem, and he actually looks nowhere near that hideous. If he just cleaned up he could probably look like pic related.
Wait, so the game actually runs on its own proprietary hardware?
Yeah. Its secretive nature and how exactly it works is the subject of many conspiracies irl in the story.
i have no choice, i must reply to him
>VR
it's dishonest isekai
I'm just gonna be that faggot and complain that the music in the trailer is boring and sucks, even Isekai Smartphone had better music.
>>Made from connecting countless large ships together, this man-made landmass floats in the middle of the open sea.
That one sounds very cool, and very vulnerable to terrorist attacks and greek fire.
IMO f HJ can fund any 2cours anime now, it's Dendro. they've already gone above and beyond to push the LN, it seems to be the darling of somebody with clout.
>Bear: “Now, bear with us as we tell you how it got published.”
>Cat: “Good ideaa. It happened about 11 months ago. The author looked into his inbox on Shōsetsuka ni Narō and found a message from a sender whose name was in red... The red name caused him to quake with fear, but he somehow got himself to read the subject line. It said ‘Publishing Offer.’ It was actually an offer from Hobby Japan’s editor, K!”
>Bear: “Naturally, the author was surprised, fur he never expected to get contacted by a publisher whose releases he’d read in his school years.”

You can see the 50 nemesis fanarts here
if there's a series they'll spend money on, it's this one.
K also runs the Dendro twitter account and is really enthusiastic.
I hope the visuals doesn't end up being another Aku no Hana.
what a stupid post
Sorry, wrong thread. This little shit tipped me off
Have fun in the jail server.
Why is the chief editor manning the Twitter account himself? Don't they have PR guys to do that?
They do but K personally handles the Dendro account because he seems to be a huge fan.
Only Granvola would put you in the wanted list though so it's fine as long as you save somewhere else.
that system is so fucking retarded
How big would your price be if you sink an entire country?
That's kind of how it is in real life though. If you can escape to another country you're not likely to be caught out unless you cause an uproar there too.
Arguably gayer than Ray and Rook
The sea is already one of the most dangerous areas in the game.
A country that survived there for centuries probably knows how to deal with that kind of stuff.
You'd have an easier time with land-based country navies.
So dendro is the darling of a bunch of big wigs then?
Is it the whole jojo thing?
I really hope it's 2 cours (it'll probably be only 1 though). The Franklin Games would serve as a good ending for the show.
That's not even remotely true with the real world's alliances, and even escaping to some scumfuck despot's nation is unrealistic when you've done the equivalent of dropping nukes on civvies.
I think they'll adapt the first 2 volumes with a Franklin's Game teaser as a potential S2.
This would be great. Any user here that can guesstimate which parts of the novel would be covered by which episodes in the best timeline?
She was supposed to be a loli too.
She's not a loli in the LN art or the manga art though.
She was described as a loli.
Loli is but a word in these days. Only in hidden corners of the world like this one is the word used with at least a figment of its original meaning.
Seems like bad game design, I can only imagine how salty everyone who didn't roll a Maiden must be. If you could reroll for cash they could make a fortune off whales, but this way they only generate resentment.
Some people don't want to game with a constant manifestation of their own psyche hanging out with them.
The Embryo is based on you so it's your own fault if you didn't get a Maiden.
Read The Wandering Inn.
Hope Dendro won't have a rushed adaptation.
You usually love your embryo no matter what you get since it was literally created around your preferences.
Having it also be a cute girl is basically a reward for immersion.
Doesn't seem relevant at all. You should make the players happy to waste all their money, not angry that they got shafted for all eternity.
But then MC would be part of a handful of speshul snowflakes.
>actually thinking that this is video game run for profit
Fuck off
And it will
I dunno what the point is, but as soon as I got a shitty Embryo I would drop it like the piece of shit it is. It's a wonder really that all the mooks who pulled the short straw keep hanging around.
Your Embryo is tailor made for you so you would like it no matter what.
Nemesis' boobs are too big. I want a refund.
Going by the visuals, she has 2hu boobs, so it's fine.
Your Embryo is based on you, you couldn't hate it. Even if it was based on part of you that you hated, it would reflect a core part of your identity you couldn't really deny.
Seems like writer handwaving shit because he's a retard. Obviously 99% of healthy males with Type Arms would prefer Type Maiden with Arms. It just wouldn't make the MC special enough if everybody had it.
I might be remembering wrong, but wasn't it also mentioned at the start how the game is unnaturally cheap as fuck considering how much more realistic it is than literally every other attempt at VR ever made?
Ray isn't half as special as most of the supporting cast, though. How about you read it before going off on assumptions.
I actually don't think that many people would want a girl that can read their minds following them around
m8, Ray is just your normal lucky MC. He's still nowhere near OP levels of power.
I read the first book, it's bad so far but as always It Gets Better 10 Volumes In (TM)
Try Volume 2. It immediately presents a more compelling antagonist.
niger
It also got a manga adaptation like right after volume 1 was released.
What's that country have to do with anything?
If you don't like the Gouz-Maise battle either then feel free to drop it and leave.
Hope this thread doesn't get hijacked by homebrew faggot cancer
If you don't think the game is a Real World (tm), you probably wouldn't appreciate a "fake" waifu sticking by you literally 24/7 and badgering you about laws and morality and telling you how you should use your powers.
>badgering you about laws and morality and telling you how you should use your powers
I assume she'd be alligned with your personality, though.
And that can read your mind. You can't forget to mention that.
Just stick to discussing Dendro and stop posting shit like this.
The rational part of my brain knows that this was his luck activating and having the cats giving the monster a UBM rank, but I'll be damned if I didn't enjoy it.
Pat of me hopes the Greaves have a bit of Maise inside them and he might be able to talk to him like Gardrandra at some point. But that's probably why I'm not a writer.
>wouldn't appreciate a "fake" waifu
Faggot.
>not a nip writer
ftfy
That sounds like the Pawns from Dragon's Dogma and I loved my waifu Pawn.
I always have a boner when looking at Tsukyo ass. Dat ass is phat.
I like it. She has a peachy butt.
Aligned, yeah, but only to a certain extent - she'd still have her own wants and needs, and be willing to turn off your powers if you ignore them.
Enough to put in almost as much effort as a "real" relationship?
Wolves hunt in packs, Arisen.
They always tend to be best girl
Tis weak against fire
>これは他の＜マスター＞にも言えることで、ほとんどの＜マスター＞は自分の＜エンブリオ＞の能力に納得する。
>自らの内より生じた力のカタチであるゆえに、嫌えないのはある意味当然だった。
It being tailor made for you doesn't necessarily mean you'll like it, but in the end most of the Masters come to terms with it
King of Orchestra hated Bremen to begin with it for instance
>ベルドルベルはブレーメンのモチーフを嫌悪していた。
>しかし同時に、誰よりもブレーメンの音楽を愛していた。
>ブレーメンの姿を嫌いながら、ブレーメンの音に魅せられた男が最も信じたもの……それこそがホーンによる《獣震楽団》。
If the girl was real instead of an NPC with a shit AI that repeats the same 5 lines over and over then sure.
Excerpts are from Vol 3 Clash of the Superiors, Ch19: Mangaka vs Composer
I really should get around to buying the English release sometime
based retard
>The power in the divine music had yet to fail him, so Veldorbell had limitless confidence in its effects.
>He disliked the motif behind his Embryo. But at the same time, he adored their music more than anyone else in existence.
>Veldorbell, a man who hated Bremen’s form, but was thoroughly enchanted by its sound, believed in the power of Wind’s Beast Orchestra more than anything else in the world. He was absolutely certain that no one could remain alive before this music.
Got you. Volume 4, Chapter 4: Battle of the Artists.
A tian virgin is fine too.
I wanted to disagree with you, but I can't.
I hope it won't. Dendro deserves more. At least let it not be CGI shit.
Compared to basically every other Superior Ray is fucking tame.
>comparing a low-rank Embryo with a Superior
That's not fair.
Seems more like a thin client.
this interests me. did some group pick it up for translation?
I think he's talking about potential. Ray skill lies in his counterattacks. Look at the other Superiors and tell me Ray can be OP amongst OP.
m8
He's probably less broken than Rook if you're looking at it that way. Though it helps that Rook has the skills in real life to carry over into the game.
If it feels real it's as real as it needs to be. Caring about anything more is as gay as it gets.
Maybe your whole life is a dream. Who gives a fuck? Just try to enjoy it.
Brother Bear's gatling gun (it's 2nd form iirc) doesn't seem impressive compared to Nemesis first two forms.
A glimpse at the Chelsea/Juliet manga.
Ray said that Juliet's clothing was a bit scary and frankly, I'm not seeing it.
I do enjoy the "ragtag gacha team" aesthetic they have going on.
The gun is way more generically useful than Nemesis' kit that's wholy specced around giant killing.
And Nemesis is less impressive than Babylon, your point?
Plus, for most situation (grinding, fighting besides bosses) a gatling gun would be more useful than Nemesis, it just so happen that Ray constantly get on situations where she is more useful.
Nemesis is easily countered by just not attacking or giving Ray debuffs.
You don't have anything like that for a minigun.
Have you never played Dwarf Fortress?
More info about plot and stuff on next month's issue, and the actual manga starts on May, apparently.
How far are the LN translations? After reading this thread I wanna read it now
Does it update regularly?
The LN is licensed and caught up to Japan. They're about 20% through the most recent volume right now.
Oh sweet
Guess I’ll pirate the licensed volumes then
they cost basically nothing
Are you rich?
I have a job
Nice try, Steiner.
Nothing>basically nothing.
Not for 3rd world NEETs
Nah Ray would hate that since Maise is a literal child killing evil lich. He would have stopped equipping it the moment it did.
>tfw no infinite dendrogram
>tfw cant make your avatar into a cute girl
>tfw the infinite dendrogram system will make it so that it really feels real
ITS NOT FAIR
>Ray said that Juliet's clothing was a bit scary and frankly, I'm not seeing it.
That's your fault for believing in Ray's fashion sense.
Why hasn't that happened yet, actually? We've got a couple girls playing as guys already.
Genderswapping avatars probably dropped drastically with it being first person with tactile and one character per account.
> one character per account
Fuck that shit.
I know I would make myself a cute loli avatar in a heartbeat. Would probably hate getting a Maiden embryo though, what with all the awkwardness.
But then you could live out /ll/ fantasies.
We got girls playing as guys so far that know how having penises feel like as described in one side chapter. It'll work the same if you're playing a girl.
Author obviously likes girls with dicks more. That said, Candy Carnage the King of Plagues is a guy playing a girl avatar. The superior that Marie sent to the gaol. He starts getting relevant later with the jailbreak stuff.
Candy Carnage is a trap, not a girl.
>A guy playing a trap
Next level
What side chapter was that?
Fuck you goddamn cunt, stop trying to pin the blame on them they did nothing wrong
goddamn nigger faggot scum
if one has a maiden type, or even another type with a girl figure
can you fuck your embryo?
what about embryos that look like tentacle monsters?
It's implied that sex exists in infinite dendrogram with users putting up +18 settings and having fun with that.
So yes.
The game automatically locks you out of every R-18 option if you're under 18.
If you're 18+ you can stick your dick into everything just fine though.
he deserves the literal death penalty and it steams my beans that he's still on speaking terms with anyone at all
It's not just implied. There are brothels, and that one guy who impregnated his Tian wife.
Well it's in the story background, we'll never really see Ray bang some sluts at the brothel with nemesis around will we?
that's still far beyond just being implied
Ray can't get a boner, so it would be pointless anyway.
You'll never see Ray bang some sluts because giving him a boner is harder than beating a UBM.
Was he traumatized for the other thanks to his sister?
He had to live between naked amazons, so nothing short of a full nude and seductive succubus will get him hard.
ah, desensitized then
It's more like he was being chased around by them, so he now associates bare tits and vag with danger.
Grinding seems like it would be hella annoying in VR. At least in a traditional mmo you can set up the macros and just half pay attention while doing something else.
Just luckshit your way into a full set of good gear like our boy Ray here.
What if you're the kind of person who hates looking in the mirror/confronting the true self?
then you get a case like first, the introspection makes you uncomfortable, but recognizing the fault is a step in the right direction of improving yourself and being more at peace
Hope you get a maiden for hatesex fun
Love the dude.
A female you that's in full sarcasm mode 24/7 and is only capable of responding in barbs aimed at you.
Maybe this
My favorite type of vrmmo manga are the kinds where players get skills based on not only their personality, but their playstyle. For example, the shield girl manga is very entertaining in that regard; I even heard it's getting an anime.
Players who are deep in denial sometimes get "I reject your reality and substitute my own" Embryos.
Every embryo is basically a persona in that it's your reflection, the things grow and change as their users grow and change.
Has the WN actually said what is the requisite to an embryo to evolve into a Superior?
That's also Infinite Dendrogram.
For example there's a gladiator champion that's specced towards PVP wearing whatever equipment he can find despite the mishmash of fashion
There's a shield girl who uses a giant armor and specialises in shield smashing who uses it to gank people and roleplay as a bandit
There's people using their cooking skills to poison people
There's someone running a religious cult using their abilities threatening NPCs ingame to open more of their churches to further their influence
There's someone who roleplays as a manga character assassin
There's someone who loves loli/shota and uses his abilities to turn them into that to molest them.
and more
Going by every single superior we've seen so far it's probably extreme autism.
Lots and lots of grinding because you can get a superior job without getting a superior embryo. Getting a superior job first means that your embryo will eventually evolve into something that truly benefits you and your final superior job though.
And then there's Kamen Rider. The translations can't seem to decide if "Kamen Rider" is his actual name or not.
>There's someone who loves loli/shota and uses his abilities to turn them into that to molest them.
Holy shit.
Really want to know how you can go up from the busted shit that is Cocytus' ability.
Cyco's skill set is powerful, but geared more toward neutralizing PvP players.
>that one where the protag gets isekaid into a game, but all the bugs are still there
>game-breaking glitches are convenient but make people look at you like you're less than trash
There's got to be Embryos out there that negate or copy the powers of other Embryos.
A man who is truly living the dream
Rumpelstiltskin is an Embryo used by Hell General. It allows him to alter the numbers of a skill.
This allows him to change the number of minion he summons, their levels, their stats, the mana cost and more. He's allowed to do this ten times at ten different places of a skill. This turned a pretty mediocre Job that requires sacrificing things to summon minions into something that can singlehandedly overwhelm a country's army as well as have minions strong enough to fight their country's superior jobs.
There's also an embryo that allows someone to turn into a slime. If you ever read the LN I got reincarnated into a slime, it has all the same abilities and powers as that LN.
Becoming Rimuru minus the Time Lord stuff sounds pretty cash.
When to comes to broken ass Embryos, that one always comes to my mind first. Selective 10x effects is fucking insane.
Then there's Tsukuyo's Superior Embryo, Kaguya
An Embryo that takes the form of *night*, letting her divide as many values in the area as she wants by six. She can turn a horde of level 60 enemies into level 10 ones... with 1/6th the hit points and 1/6th the damage output of a normal level 10. And then just for laughs, she can also divide their body temperature and heart rate.
Shit, that's brutal.
Some biologyfag that can answer this?
With that power, can you make a 1:6 human?
There's an Embryo that allows you to copy someone else's abilities and stats. Maybe its superior version could even copy another Embryo?
not a biologyfag but a 1:6 human would probably burn themselves to death because their surface area is not large enough to exude enough heat
Fortunately it's balanced by him being a pretty miserable player and not that great a military strategist either.
>pretty miserable player
In what way is Logan a miserable player?
He's just a little kid IRL
As expected of edgy villain roleplayers
he's a shota and throws a tantrum when Franklin makes fun of him
He's not even a roleplayer. He just comes off as a villain because he treats Dendro solely like a game, sees tians as potential EXP, and plays to win. Those actions only make him come off as a villain, but from his perspective he's just winning.
Like that chinese jiangshi one? She was an elementary schooler, I think.
>A Dendro thread over the bump limit
What a world we live in
Yeah but Logan is a spoiled brat who is used to being 'the best' in everything. He's emotionally neglected by his parents and gets expensive gifts/money instead. That's why his Embryo can give him as much of whatever he wants, because he's a lonely spoiled brat.
It's a good one.
new thread where? I want to see other people's embryo ideas
The pseudo /ss/ humiliation doujinshis would be fantastic if later anime seasons ever got that far
Wait until it naturally occurs. Or when another PV comes out. Believe me, this was a comfy thread, an exception amongst exceptions.
I think it'll be hard to sustain without an anime. Plus I'm sure half the posters here are isekai thread refugees.
Not legally, but in spirit Franklin/Francesca recognizes that it's definitely more than just a game so she's the kind of person who would do this IRL too, it's only a matter of time.
