Not sure... if your joking...

But I didn't say anything any fan of NGNL should be unaware of. I didn't exaggerate or hyperbolize any of that information. It had this huge plot point and completely ignored it (it was basically a handwave for the main character)

That's it. 1v1 ARAM.

Ps. In Sports Animes Coaches, Doctors, and Refs are USELESS!

Only one I've ever seen is Kuroko no Basketball, and it goes ok.

So they never have a scene where a player is obviously injured and the Coach goes "Ohh well, if it means so much to you" or where a doctor doesn't call it out... or where a Ref doesn't stop it?

Not sure... if your joking...

Alright but remember, I chose the game...

and that game is "I win, you lose"... I won see!

I haven't finished it, but there's a scene where the coach pulls the player off against their wishes and tanks the game because they're worried about an injury.

Right!?

It's *YOU'RE!!

"hey let's do a game"
"okay, here are the rules"
"no fair you're cheating"
"hahaha i am the greatest at cheating"
"lolno blank never loses [at cheating]"
"oh no you're better at cheating than me, please let me join your harem so i may bathe with your collection of lolis"
"kthnx, now i need to collect more lolis, to catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause, etc."

...

The closest thing I've watched to a sports anime was Little Busters, it got the coaching thing pretty much right but kinda missed the sports boat a little.

[Neonivek]

Even then Orange Wizard the cheating would be tolerable if it felt less like pulling stuff out the character's butt.

The cheating pretty much only works if they do it.

That was neither random nor in the middle!

I don't think they ever really cheated. They interpreted the rules liberally but that's part of what a game is.

*Playing Chess*
"You fell for my trap! The chess pieces CAN FEEL FEAR!"
- "The winning pieces get to rape my opponent!"
*LANDSLIDE VICTORY*

At that point I was basically out. I mean, I still watched it all... But y'know. Not seriously...
*shifty eyes*

[Neonivek]

The very first game you actually see played out in the show... They outright cheat.

Welp, it's worked throughout history, no reason it wouldn't work in a game.

Again, checking how the rules worked.

[Neonivek]

No... I mean they literally cheat.

As in if they were called out on it... They would have lost.

As in what they did was strictly against the rules.

--

Liars game had cheating to... but they at least interwoven it better in the story and plot and made sense.

Blank pretty much can cheat anyway they want and the plot bends over backwards to accommodate it.

"Wait, how did you get out of the contract?"
"Ohh, I cross my fingers behind my back when I accepted it"
"Ok... well that shouldn't have worked... Well I guess that means I owe you some money"
"Yes and now I establish that your soul is money and I want your soul"
"Wait what!?! that makes no sense..."
"Ohh and also you have to do everything I want because services are a form of currency"
"WHAT!?!"
"Ohh and also now your a bunny since your humanity is part of currency"

Versus Liar's game say

"Now, here is a keycard that you need to open this vault in order to get your money"
"So, if I steal the keycard... my opponent wouldn't be able to open it?"
"Correct"
"Ha ha I stolen it!"

Dude are you shit talking NGNL. Are you.

I'll fight you irl.

Neonivek's just not down with the soapy lesbo loli sex, don't mind him...

That doesn't exactly happen either. One of the major jokes of the series is that basically the anime wants to be born but doesn't have the gall to actually do so.

Which is kind of the thing... NGNL is 75% porn without the porn.

[Flying Dice]

I've had a sudden realization: NGNL is basically Akagi for pedos and ADD fourteen year olds.

[Orange Wizard]

The art was pretty nice. Although sometimes it felt like the garish colours were burning my eyes out. Overall, the aesthetic was decent. Unique (although not on the same tier as SHAFT, obviously).

Kaiji did it better too.
