One major issue with animes about video games is that it doesn't feel like the authors are gamers. With Shangri-La Frontier, you can definitely feel that Katarina is very passionate about it and knows his stuff. This series has soul, and it's really refreshing.
I like this anime so much ,I would love for it to have merch
This going to be a classic on my opinion in the future
SAO or Accel World are the best examples of a story written about games, but the authors know nothing about games.
Oh boi you better expect more game elements as the game progress and even wide variety of game types too.
Katarina's gender actually isn't fully confirmed.
Apparently some of the animation staff have worked on god of highschool, that's probably why the fights looks so amazing 😊
Who
Those were the only good part of that adaptation. Really the only good webtoon anime from that period, was Tower of God.
@@viderevero1338 they still skipped a lot but nowhere near as bad as GoH 🤣
@@viderevero1338hopefully solo leveling adaption isn't trash
goh webtoon is goated as hell the anime did it dirty@@superblanco444
Simple concept with the best execution,that’s the best way to describe this show and that’s why I’m liking it so much(plus the fact that I relate to how he plays games and some things he does)
Webtoons are the exact same there’s a lot of tower, ranker, back in time, OP MC types of stories. MC’s look the same too 🤣
*Koren webtoons*
The romance ones are even worse
But do they have a bird mask?
This season is pretty packed with good anime. My faves are Frieren, Apothecary Diaries and Pluto
Pluto isn’t out yet tho 😅 it looks phenomenal and if we’re going off the manga it’s for sure to be fantastic, but let’s wait just 12-24 more hours 😂 agreed with Frieren
@@NinthShinigamiI'm preemptively saying it because I've read the manga and seen the trailers 😂
I will eat a shoe if it's bad
Pluto will for sure be peak
Why is Yang Wenli everywhere
The anime is very likeable. I found myself really liking Sunraku from the start as I can kind of relate to him. (As a gamer.) I knew I would probably enjoy it, but good fucking god, I didn't expect it to be my favorite of the season. Honestly, what pushed it into being my favorite was when they introduced Arthur Pencilgon. And the history between her and the main character. Gods that's shit you don't make up. That feels genuine. That's the sort of shit that feels really genuine. The backstory of Pencilgon and Sunraku as well as how they play off of one another, is why I absolutely love this anime.
How about that fight
Oikatzo is also relatable especially having the gender bend character customization lol
So basically he used cyberpunk as training for elden ring
Cyberpunk isn’t that bad
@@zaid3459 Yeah I've heard its gotten a lot better. Might try it. Glitches aside the visuals and the style looked really good from day 1.
Might be more accurate to say he played every souls-like knockoff that isn't actually a souls game, and then tried Elden Ring.
exactly
The best analogy would be that he played gunz the duel to train for elden ring
It's in all honesty one of the most surprising anime I've seen in a while ! And it's a really good one.
The best part for me would be that it's believable, you could see this happening if we got sci-fi vr tech and people who did god runs on the souls games would dominate it.
We probably will in a few years since we have AI
Been reading the Manga for years and it’s Peak ngl great characters and concept if you want a Manga to entertain you this can and will be the one
just caught up to the manga, the latest arc fucking peak
@@phithrumenth7340oh my god. Every single fight in the current arc has been peak.
Especially the sunraku vs silvia fight.
@@ZetroFox9274 when is the next chapter gonna release man??? anyone knows ??? i cant find the release date of chap 158 of slf manga
The way Cursed Prison fights is just so sick, can't even imagine how the fight will look in the anime
This anime looks and feels amazing how could you not like it
What does it even mean to "despise" anime openings?
It's literally just a music video
It got even better after the weatherman fight fr that was some hype stuff
Masked been on the anime grind this year
also that the main character has a healthy family, and wants to go to college? huh...
Surprisingly really good,very underrated, good plot that slowly expanding with mysterious event. The fight scene insanely good(better than solo leveling fighting scene that dont really match the manhwa synergy)
We appreciate your insights. We will always support you no matter what.
I was about to click subscribe, but then you told me your kingdom hearts slanders was only sarcasm …..I thought I had found a brother in arms
I usually avoid isekais (and isekai-like) like the plague, but you've convinced me, I'll give this one a shot
It isn't an isekai, it's a mmo manga that actually feels like an mmo.
It's not an isekai, it's just a VRMMORPG
2:23 Really? Most of the time, anime openings are one of the best parts. There a bit of a joke that most of the anime's budget was poured into openings. To each their own
2:26 Yeah, I agree with you. When I first heard its op, it was off putting to me, but I quickly grown to enjoy it
Had been thinking of checking this one out every week, since I kinda wanna max out the anime I watch this season. Only got SPYxFAMILY, Overtake, Captain Tsubasa, Frieren, and Undead Unluck so far (Pluto tomorrow as well).
If you like racing anime (like overtake) id add mf ghost to that
@@shinigxmi. was thinking of watching that one as well, looked like Initial D to me (which is absolutely phenomenal imo)
Check out Apothecary Diaries and Pluto which airs tomorrow
@@Ash_Wen-li I’m very excited for Pluto’s anime tomorrow. Currently, it’s my 19th favorite anime/manga. I heard of Diaries as well, so I may check it out.
Eminence in shadow and 100 girlfriends are some fun shows to watch
I'll give it a shot. @TheMaskedMan do you know about Lord of the Mysteries? The PV for the anime, set to release in 2025, looks insane. It's basically an isekai in a Victorian era steampunk setting. It also has a manhua. Please make a video on it because Scamboli's lazy ass is not going to.
The manga has some fights that had me genuinly busting every panel. I really hope the anime delivers on those battles. And i think it will from what ive seen so far. Im not kidding when i say i enjoy the fight scenes in the manga more than some top level shonen jump action.
That kingdom's heart joke was peak ngl
The season is stacked GADDAMNIT it’s insane !! Just the returning animes ar already too much than you have unexpected bangers like this shangri la frontier
I had hopes for Shangri-la
Great to see it going well
Everytime I watch this series I get the urge to play a game lol. It speaks to my gamer side.
I been watching this anime thanks to a friend recommending it and so far i LOVE it
Is Weird How Lately How i Been Finding Anime That Are Somewhat Main Stream But Yet Not ur Normal Fight Anime But Stuff Like
Dr Stone and Shangri la Frontier Are Perfect For Me a Great Blend of Drama and Comedy
Let's support usch and NOT trash. 'Ironic watching' and 'hate watching' HAS to die-out
Totally my fav anime right now.
IM A REAL Trash-Game-Player: I have literally the highest Level i know of when it comes to Cube World, a game that could have been one of the 'Big 3 Cubic Products' like Minecraft and Hytale, but for complex reasons it failed - but i battled through it; to honor what it could have been
@@slevinchannel7589 true legend
@@avi3365 Haha, the game, the anime or Me?
...Either wy... im sad Cube-World never reached its full potential. Dont know how mouch you know about that crazy-case butt the depression and 'programming a game in a Vacuum with 0 input from betatesters and usch' murdered that epci game
shangri-la frontier might end up being in my top 5 favorite animes ever it's so fucking good i don't think i've ever been pulled into an anime the same way i have with SLF with the exception of maybe hunter x hunter it's just so exciting to watch the only criticism I have of it is that it made me want to play an mmorpg game and you could imagine my disappointment when i discovered that every single mmorpg sucks ass but other than that it's fucking stellar
Mostly came for the blacksmithing one-eyed rabbit guy. Awesome scene.
I was curious so gave the manga a try, very pleasantly surprised by it, dont know how it went under my radar
LOVING this show! Characters are cool and action is awesome!!
Wonder if you are going to read its web novel if its available?
Somebody please talk about Golden Kamuy it's so heavily underrated!
Hey @TheMaskedMan can I recommend you the manga called batuque? It is a manga set in modern day Hiroshima and there's was a capoeira master that was living there somewhere and it was underrated and have a story and especially good fight scene if you like fighting
I came for the review I stayed for the Dodo head😂
Absolutely no one is asking if you mean business showing up as the mascot for global extinction yo.
Gotta say I’ve been a fan of the manga for a long time. It’s not perfect but it’s always fun with none of the agonising shit you often get in VR isekai. No shitty love triangle or harem, no godlike power and likeable female characters with actual personalities and really no fan service. It’s just fun and action packed.
Actually.

He will have harem later on (Mostly NPC) but they all have very clear personality and all have good story emotional with Sunraku, it still pretty far off from the future though (Since it from Web Novel)
One thing I never tell anyone is, This is only games anime that I really like and enjoy. I remember watching SAO and dropped it on first arc because I feel like "This anime is not for me". But then, I watch this anime and oh my god, This is so fun. I highly recommend it especially if you like rpg games.
He’s got a addiction to very hard/torturing games so I gotta commend that a true challenge adrenaline seeking junkie (as for the protagonist in isekai who look alike it’s a double edge blade certainly wouldn’t hurt having different looking characters but it certainly makes it so they gotta be eye catching in story or concept it reflects itself in isekai as a genre or shounen)
Hey, there are good Isekai's out there you might love or like!
Re:Zero (PEAK FICTION and one of my favorites of all time)
The Saga of Tanya the Evil
No Game No Life
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime
Handyman Saitou in Another World (underrated gem)
Tsukimichi
The Eminence in Shadow
Cautious Hero (one of the funniest)
Try those out and see what suites you, I swear you won't regret 😉
The Masked Man face reveal was unexpected
Man, you've been watching a lot anime recently, despite preferring manga over anime (although you have watched anime) you've made recently a lot videos where you watch the anime first then read and said that you preferred the manga. The series i'm talking about are Heavenly Delusion, Undead Unluck, Zom 100, Chainsaw Man and now Shangri La Frontier (specifically the first 3 you said you preferred the manga)
Ive been reading the manga for a while and that shit slaps man🎉
Ill try it out
Have you ever read The Atelier of Witch Hat?
I guarantee it will warm your cold heart more than any arson.
Really great artwork and worldbuilding too.
I know it's been 5 months but the weathermoon fight was soo cool
And its already getting a second season
Finally, AVGN Anime
from the looks of it i probably would not have liked it either but i will take your word for it
Going through it now. The only thing i wish they didnt conpletely drop the durability mechanic.
Im on ep 10 and they havent talked about durability since like the 3rd or 4th ep. It had potential for really high stakes for olenty of fights but it never mattered even against tough enemies.
It matters. You'll see in the final battle.
i love this anime it has good animation its very entertaining the fighting is one of the best parts i love the action and i love where it is going
This series is really incredible
Nice to see you covering animes too. SLF was a real surprise this season. I was expecting some trash isekai, but it's actually really good. Also, animation is top notch.
Waiting for your Hell's Paradise anime video too. That'll be interesting.
Haven't watched a masked man video in a bit - hey sister (james Charles reference)
do you have an anime list?
Any other Canadians that are tired with early winter’s
Good thing is that masked man trying his best to watch some anime .this year ,he did some than last year😂
If want some fun anime try this kemono michi
True gamer sunraku got angry while explaining how to defeat the golem 😂😂
It’s not an isekai!!!
IM A REAL Trash-Game-Player: I have literally the highest Level i know of when it comes to Cube World, a game that could have been one of the 'Big 3 Cubic Products' like Minecraft and Hytale - but i battled through it; to honor what it could have been
I recommend the manga Rikudou, its about boxing and its pretty good
No matter how many isekai they make, I'm not complaining, keep them coming !!!!
i saw a refrence of this anime in hajime no ippo so it has to be good
I am kinda sad that the story thus far didnt expand on something that will come at episode 19 of the anime storywise, that could have raised the stakes a lot but for whatever reason it seems like the author completely forgot about it.
Edit:
Btw, there are stakes, recall episode 11 and what was said, when NPC's die they are completely erased from the game(well that is the only high stakes thing about the game, not the players, but rather the NPC's)
Gamer anime done right and man to have the whole family from SxF would be awesome if I had won the lottery lately xD
Did you ever finish gintama
I slept on this series because of another similar anime that came out in 2021 called Full Dive, and it was genuine trash with really zero plot. Saw a couple clips and gave it a shot. Binged it in a day right before the Wethermon fight and ended up hooked
Top 3 anime of the season fr🔥🔥
I might beed to give this one a try whenever ai have time, because this season is pretty packed and I still have a few titles to catch up to.
For those that might enjoy isekai that get a decent pacing and try a bit of a different development path, Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash could be a good title to check out. Its got a good way in fleshing out the dangers of adventuring into an unknown world, the interactions within party members and how good relationships are important, and explores a bit of a mentoring system that I remember was a bit interesting, but that it seems its explored more in the source material for the LNs for what some people mentioned in forums when the series was airing. Its not the most revolutionary anime series, but its pretty enjoyable and if some themes are further expanded and explored in following seasons (if it ever gets a continuation) it could go to interesting developments (LN readers, don't spoil me please, just let me know if I should attempt to read the source material).
What the fuck I just started reading this a week ago and am just now finding out about it's anime.
I really like this anime because it's more like of like "Let me solo her" that dude's legend in elden ring but funnier
Luh calm fit isekai moment
wait, i thought i was watching joey (the anime man) im so confused
as a trash isekai watcher, this show is exactly why I watch isekai so much.
this is like the first time you talk about anime, instead of manga
Anime opening are amazing!!!
Yeah this one's great
This anime, Frieren, and the apothecary diaries are the only best thing to watch this season
Yes, bring more attention to shangri-la frontier
If only you would give LN/WN a chance, Re:Zero and mushoku tensei are masterpieces.
1000th like 🌚
The significance of the boss battle and curse the MC is afflicted with is incredible, it literally changes the play style of the player as a consequence of earning it from a legendary scenario; no other RPG would DARE to do this because alot of players are big whiney babies that need milk, and so they would cry about "how unfair" it is and send death threats to the devs expecting daddy to get some or else. Its amazing this anime exists; In the sea of trash anime with overpowered fetish protagonists, this breath of fresh air doesn't shove belatant pedo trash or endless sexualization in your face, it successfully sells the dream of a truly god tier game, and Licagons curse is key that unlocks the treasure that is this series. The curse essentially replaces your lack of armour for a perfect set up for a no hit striker build; It starts you off with an insanely rare exp attainment alternative, a high resistance magic defense, and a natural deterant of trash mobs so essentially; he went from Baldrs Gate to Monster Hunter boss mechanics and he didn't even have to switch games. All in tribute to the player engaging with an impossible enemy with the highest value of damage, without TAKING ANY DAMAGE, WHILE LANDING 200 CRITICAL STRIKES!!! In this perfect world with this perfect game, the Ai was made, hand crafted to find a players playstyle and experience and not only rewards them for it but GENUINELY ADAPT challenges FOR them proprtionate to thier skill and dedication to the game!! We can barely get a few hundred game companies that genuinely dedicate themselves to the craft and im not gonna lie the executive embezzlement and trickle down doesn't give me confidence its happening any time soon; Lariean Studios still exists tho, so i still have reasonable hope that someday this could be possible, but i digress... I LOVE this series, 25 episodes with a garenteed season 2, I love EVERYTHING about this blessed series and you should definitely give it a shot. Watch Shang-Gri La Frontier, you'll find it on crunchy roll but watch it however you can, give the creators some love y'all!! (honestly, the lead developer of Shanghai Frontier is in hiding and i definetly can see why. Players would hunt them down if a real company allowed pvp rules like Shangrila Frontier! lmao❤)
Loved the jokes 😂
Isekais are the Little Caesars of anime
Naked bird head.
Monster hunter fan confirmed.
Kingdom Hearts is actually a good game….
Saw 10 episodes read the manga love it. This is what SAO wishes it was. Chapter 131 is wonderful and sick 🤢.
I also really liked it and nobody talks about it
Better than solo levelling anime
Agreed
Do you plan to ever do a vid on the house in Fata Morgana requiem for innocence
I hope so. I've been waiting for that
It’s funny because vending machine anime ending up being a niche hobby anime disguised as an isekai
I mean... not to sound offensive... but did Masked Man not see that there is not a single young jacked black male anime isekai protagonist??? That would be pretty unique.
Probably because none of these isekai creators are black
MAGICIANS RED
Read red rising
Tbh i thought it was a chinese anime because of the title (i am a racist man 🤯) so i didnt watch it but when i watch the first epidsode i knew this would be great
Read under ninja plz
Can someone please explain the premise of this anime? It doesn't make any sense to me after watching 8 episodes. I understand it is a game, and that's where my comprehension ends. The players are all acting like it's life and death. WHY? Even if your character dies, you just respawn again. Meaning: No One can force the MC to do anything or say anything.
Any MMO I have played, where I found something no one else knew about, resulted in me telling whoever I wanted, and ignoring everyone else.
Since I don't understand the reasoning behind the way they are playing... it makes the anime dumb. And I'm even excepting the parallel stories / plots that are simultaneously running.
Would like to correct you;: Vending Machines Isekai is better than most of the mindless trashes
Start reading manhwa too
Sorry mate we only have your basic isekai protagonist, we’re all out of creative ideas for a protagonist in this restaurant.😔🐱
