this might sound funny ,. but the entire SIGN series should be thought out as one big movie or something ,. each episode doesnt do a whole alot ,. but each episode does take a step up one way or another. will admit very SLOOOOOOOOWWWwWwwwwwww...... pacing. but it does conclude alright.

I have to defend the reviewer because though it isn't a completely elegant review the points made are vaild. The conversations ARE pointless in contrast to what DarkFayte is suggesting mainly because the conversation is wooden with next to no energy put into any of it; even in circumstances that demand it.

The World is beautiful but pacing terrible and locations never established; we're just suddenly there. I'd write more but the word count is killing this...

I once started watching legend of the twilight, but I put in on hold to start watching the series chronologically. I got half way and dropped. Seriously, the show is so slow paced it annoys me. But if you say the 2nd half is better, I might sacrifice some more time to complete it

I remember watching one episode when I was 8, the opening and the music blew me away. Then I decided to buy the limited edition collection a year ago (15). Watched through the whole thing, I thought it was a wonderful anime (was slow, but drank some soda XD) if you get emotionally attached or like flawed characters. The show does give you a lot of "red herrings". I really liked the setting, and the idea or maybe fact that some people play games for escapism. Now collecting the games ^_^

.Hack Sign was the first iteration to the World; how can you expect all the terminology of the whole universe created to referenced in this show? The show is a tip of the iceberg method show. It is superficial on the surface but there is immense detail if you take the time to listen to the stupid 5 minute conversations you gripe about.

[MalzraAirwynn]

I'll say just this for SIGN. The fact that the admins don't have control over the game, is indeed applicable to the entire franchise. And this is also the start of the real trouble with The World, the admins might not actually believe the rumors about Tsukasa not able to logout etc. And one of the aspects of the anime I enjoyed was gleaming details about the characters in real life and the relation between their real world and what they do in the game.

[VermillionDX]

The answer: DCUO.

Random PVPs, admins suck, etc. But you could believe that they were just in a PvP server.

I watched one episode of Hack sign and all i got out of it, was some chick nearly falling off a cliff. something about a safe point, and some guy turning entirely grey. I DOES NOT SEE THE POINT
