The fact that this anime immediately erases any possibilities of fighting is such a genius move. It immediately erases the possibilities of cheap power scaling and being OP through the standard isekai method of super duper awesome unique MC cheat blessing and instead actually has the main characters be clever and intelligent, with the conflicts being interesting and creative games instead of just generic and repeated action scenes.
@@ScamboliReviews yeah, imposing limits on shows and movies, be they creatively or budget wise, can honestly improve it way so much, since now you have to think of creative ways to overcome these issues that you honestly just wouldn’t even bother to think about if you have 100% freedom.
@@ScamboliReviews Counterpoint: none of its clever, it just has the facade of being clever. They never win because they had a better strategy that exploited the game rules, the games rules were all made up on the spot to dig the characters out of the hole they'd been writen into. After sticking around for Shiritori, which was good, the nail in the coffin was the final game. The action was fun but the solution was crap and the explanation was crap. If you can imagine it as being the mc being isekai'd into so much debt he has to play games for the amusement of a paying audience, Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor is superior in everyway except cameltoe.

Thank you for anowledging that having a problem with the sexualization of the underage girl is the normal reaction, you can still enjoy the show despite that, but don't tell people you are the one with the problem for thinking that is remotely not okay.
Honestly yeah,I know alot of people who watch or read underage(or just character that is really short) fictional character and they are just as normal as other,some got a girlfriend,not stereotypical fat guy, of course people true self won't show outside but as one of them,I don't feel attract to real underage person,due to the fact that I am socially awkward and fictional character have features that real people don't, like unique pupil,random hair color,different facial structure and etc you don't see them in real life. It is normal to have a reaction about it but never try to harass other for it as it is pointless, no real people will be saved just because someone complained about fiction content. Even then,it was never illegal to begin with,people are just too bored with their life to find something to talk about
"Sora and Shiro were given gifts that unfortunately didn't end up being utilized on their home planet." Shiro is a walking super computer and Sora can read and manipulate people like they're picture books. Not arguing Disboard isn't where they belong but they absolutely could've gone places in our world. They just couldn't be bothered because, in their own words, "life is just a shitty game".
@@superzolosolo sure reality is a game that matters but that doesn't mean it's not a shitty game. By all possible metrics reality is a shitty game, the fundamental laws of reality such as physics which make magic impossible or the bare necessities nature of evolution which make monsters impossible is what holds the game back.
@@TheUlquiorraCifer i really don't get how anyone can expect anything fantastical to come from reality, where do you get that hope? i wish more than anything for magic to be real and i would love to be proven wrong one day but here's why i can't believe magic exists. Nothing in this world exists without affecting something else. If magic existed then it would need magical energy to power it and this energy would undoubtedly have effects on the local plants or wildlife but even with the whole planet mapped and constant satellite footage and planes flying everywhere such a place has never been reported. If the energy comes from humans then there should be some side effects differentiating a magical animal like humans from other animals but there's nothing. Humans are not the fastest, the strongest, most durable, longest lived, humans like to think they're the smartest because of their ego but the truth is humans just got lucky with the right combination of intelligence, thumbs, cooperative ability and decent life/healthspan.
@@knightacedia You really do take what you have for granted huh? Reality is the most realistic game with the best physics engine, best dialog system, best interactivity, etc, etc ever created. Do you ever wonder why npc's in videogames or side characters in anime rarely care about magic, or monsters or any of those things? It's because they've gotten used to it. They've taken it for granted. And so have you my good sir, the amount of insane things we take for granted is ridiculous, for example: electricity, magnetism, gravity, physics itself, things humans have made like computers, technology, houses, the stock market, the economy in general. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but these things would've blown minds if shown to people a 1000, or even just 100 years ago. They would've believed it was real magic! These days we dont have wizards and sorcerers, but we do have engineers and programmers, if you want to learn modern magic, pick up a c# book and get to it! Life is an incredibly unique experience (in fact, you could say its once in a lifetime!) but instead of feeling sorry for ourselves we really should make the most of it.
I also think NGNL was at least partially responsible for the color palette most isekai use nowadays. That iconic pastel saturated style was so visually striking to me way back when, and I've seen it more and more after it's success
I hated the color palette the first time I watched the show. I thought my eyes were strained or something, because everything looked so off. It grew on me on future viewings though.
@@rimurutempest4945 Glad to know that I'm not the only one who thinks the color palette is so visually grating. (Aside from the pedo/incest implications) It's the reason I never watched past the first episode. For those reasons I've always been baffled with how popular it is but after watching this vid I think I might be ready to give it another shot.
This show still did 2 things no other one did for me. 1. I binged the whole thing every time I watched it, no joke, I didn't even take breaks, from start of Ep1 to end of last episode every time. I didn't binge any other show, but I did multiple times for this one. 2. It made me laugh the whole time, and when I say the whole time, I mean after the first joke, I never stopped for more than 30s. This anime has totally my humor and I adored that.
I was so obsessed with ngnl when it was coming out, and I don’t really like isekai/shounen much. The siblings’ gambles and wins are just so dang satisfying😭 Not to mention how colorful and beautiful the animation style is. The only thing that pissed me off was all the gross fan service. As a girl it distracted from what I tried to enjoy ghfhdh
Yeah it can be a kind of a hard thing to desensitize yourself to. American television has a lot of problematic tropes, and Japanese television has different ones. Just sucks it had to infest such a beautiful show
I really appreciate the "Ya it has plot wholes and isn't perfect, but shut up. It's fun to watch." A show doesn't have to be perfect to be enjoyable and I like to hear it when people say that.
I’m happy to see a lot more people realizing this. When I finally realized this, I have had a much more enjoyable time with anime. With anything for that matter
With that said... what potholes? Am I braindead? Because to me the plot seems seriously tight, with the exception of minor plot convenience during some games
i agree there are plot holes... but man... the light novel... oh my friggin god... coz u can actually not see the SHIRO being secualized part... damn the plot... the fking plot is so good... trust me there is so much to show.. the cold war... how humans survived ... how the movie is connected to the series.... so MUCH... thats the sole reason id say NGNL is one of the best anime ive seen... atleast for me
this was one of my favorites growing up. until i got done with the only season out and felt like there should be more. Thank god they had No Game No Life 0
Watched NGNL years ago. Fell so damn in love with the color palette, something I’ve never seen before in my life up to that point, and kept watching all the way to the end because I love the idea of being so unbelievably dedicated that you’ll go the furthest extra mile to be unparalleled at what you enjoy. This video came up while I’m showing one of my closest friends this anime, which is still my #1, for the first time. Banger explanation of what makes NGNL so unique. Can’t wait until we get a season 2! I’ve waited 6 years, surely it’ll come soon!
I think scamboli is the only anime review channel I’ve seen that isn’t just a neck beard. He calls it as he sees it and doesn’t just try to make up bullshit to justify the weird shit, like saying kill la kill is a feminist satire of over sexualized anime. He appreciates the shows for the art and story, not because a character has big boba which generates dopamine.
I found your channel two months ago and you have def become one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I never comment on videos, but wanted to say I look forward to your videos and love the effort you put into the jokes and editing . Keep it up!
@@ScamboliReviews same i have a habit to always eat while watching food and if I eat something like say a good restaurant meal I will watch what I see as high class quality content and your content is up there for me but you know it would be better if you didn't take so many goddam months to upload a video you scamboli
No Game No Life will always hold a special place in my heart for being one of the shows that got me into anime. Even now looking back on it seeing it’s flaws, I still enjoy every minute of it without regret. The story and concept are interesting, the art is downright gorgeous, the characters are fun, and Jibril is best girl. The movie also makes me cry like a little bitch whenever I watch it
ngl i always cannot wait for these videos to come out, i absolutely love hearing your opinion on stuff and it dit spark me to look a little more critically at times. keep it up :)
"there's a game where they guess the gender of people walking down a street, a perfectly fair game. if you're playing before 2018." that. that got a snort from me
The thing that really sets this show apart for me is how we're *shown* how good the MCs are at games, rather than just told how powerful they are. It makes the victories they win so much more satisfying and believable.
I know I am being a mainstream jerk when I ask this but PLEASE make another one of those top 10 anime/manga/manhwa/webtoon to watch/read this season .

@@Adjudicushe was gonna type the fa____ word, which is a slur to gay people, and June is Pride month. So essentially he’s getting punished by God for trying to send an anti-pride message on pride month.
It has such great worldbuilding atmosphere and visual style that despite how awkward the less nice parts can be to watch, I can't help myself from giving it a rewatch at least once a year. It's just great.
I've recently watched the film no game no life zero and i swear it's been so long since I've actually enjoyed a movie the music the scene and emotions damn even all marvel movies didn't make feel that much that's where i started watching some manga
@@ScamboliReviews Its really good, to me at least. What i love the most is the different setting, they are fighting a war while having no magic. No games or nothing, just war and loss.
happy to see some grimgar shots in here, makes me pretty sad that never got a second season.. but since we are at amazing worlds with... difficult main characters, i am looking forward to more made in abyss
Same. It’s so crappy that it got trashed because the writer evaded a couple years of his taxes but Rurouni Kenshin gets a reboot when that creator is a IRL pedo (no, not an anime pedo, like real images of CSA pedo)
I don't know if it will happen, but I really hope the anime is able to cover the dwarven arc one day. On the surface, the arc is hilarious, action-packed, and nonsensical. but when reading between the lines, the moral of the arc is wholesome and inspirational. Love it.
Facts. But really though. Stop making characters look like kids and then sexualizing them immediately. It’s utterly disgusting behavior and is problematic at best.
This man is the reason why I got into manga and even tried some shows that I just didn’t think were for me. Cheers for that bro. (Also still waiting on a video for ‘Helck’ promised 9 months ago in the manga recommendation vid)
I remembered NGNL as a good time Now that you made me rewatch it, I honestly think you're underselling it Seriously, it's so ridiculously good, and the movie further builds the lore up in a way you wouldn't except for a game anime. The author clearly has a serious vision and deep world he came up with and adheres to the lore while telling the story of special people who at first appear to be character archetypes, just to be more real and fleshed out than honestly 90% of other anime characters. The "game" part is equally on par if you ask me, if a little plot convenient at time. Easy 9/10, arguably 10/10
I'm not one to argue over scores because it's your opinion at the end of the day, but I feel like it should lose points for the pedo stuff. I watched this as a kid and didn't notice it but looking at scenes right now, it's kinda nasty to look at the constant panty flashes.
Every little while there is an itch, I never get the vids recommended sadly but whenever I go to scratch a new vid is there. incredible perspective as always scam always ready to start scratching
I watched No Game No Life back in the day. My teenage self thought, "Dang, that was gay as hell. I can't wait for Season 2." By today's standards, yeah the show is lacking, but back then it was unique and a fun watch. I think if we actually got more seasons with even more little girls, it might have aged more favourably.
I like to believe that it isn’t just an isekai, Sora and Shiro really were born in the wrong world, and they were isekaied to Earth, but then Tet brought them back to Disboard when he found them. NGNL Zero is why I believe in this.
100% same. The author supposedly claims that Sora and Shiro canonically aren't Riku and Schwi reincarnated, but... I'm going to say this is one of the rare times where the author doesn't get to decide his canon.
I think your video struck a part of my brain I haven’t thought to use in awhile. The whole concept of isekai has grown so dull to me. I would love to see an isekai that takes place in more of a Star Wars or Smash bros type of world where the formula is shaken up. I haven’t enjoyed isekai in years but your video man has got my gears spinning :) Great work as always, can’t wait for the next video :)
I love this channel. You talk about fire shows, with a very specific type of humor that is almost extinct nowadays, and aren’t afraid to speak your mind and say what you think. I’ve been subbed for years now but I’ll occasionally just go back through and watch some of the older videos because they all make me laugh. Keep doing what you do.
Sweet jesus, you took the editing to another level with this vid! Incredible as always man, it’s a blessing to have a good vid like this when I’m having a bad day
this video came at a perfect time, I wasn't feeling the best today and just hearing your very calming voice talk about anime really cheered me up lol, thank you.
5:45 "If you can just sit back and have fun, It's really good at that". Reminds me of eminince in the shadow where a lot of the hate it was being given was technical and complicated when if you just sat back and enjoyed the crazy plot twists and the overwhelming power fanticy we all dream about having, you would enjoy it so much. When anime gets too technical with its stories it looses its fun.
I think this sort of thing is the strength of the Dr. Strange MCU movies. He wins both times by outsmarting a bad guy, solving his problems by something other than just "punch them harder than they punch you".
I remember really liked watching this anime when I was younger and when I came back to watch it again I felt gross about the whole shiro thing and started skipping the jokes and “stuff” still give a 8/10 because the games are fun to watch :)
@@angrybrony well yes but that’s why they’re saying it’s an 8/10 WITHOUT that stuff, presumably they rate it much lower if they couldn’t skip through that stuff.
This gave me a nice new perspective on the show! I watched the first season a couple years back and the little girl sexualizing made me not want to watch it anymore. I never thought about how its different world setting and coloring is probably what gave it more life than other isekai. Great video as always Scamboli
Idk if u read it but I would recommend u Worthless Regression and Overpowered Sword. I mean they are somewhat pretty generic but not too known and I enjoyed. Watching the characters progress and improve has something weirldy satisfying about it.
I dont know how it took me so long to discover this channel, but you better believe that I immediately watch every video that comes across my feed now. Between the type of humor and the actually thought out and smart takes, it's quickly become my favorite anime review channels, if not one of my favorites all around.
I feel that the no game no life movie, zero, would also be amazing if they took out all the perverted stuff. Just the music alone is sooo well written there it makes me want to rewatch it, but I digress.
@@heavenseeker2320 That’s exactly what I mean! The movie is so great otherwise that you forget the weird stuff, and then when you show it to others you are the weirdo lmao
@@Dasha-Soul "Made by gamers for gamers" is a quote by Razer, a company well known for its gaming related peripherals. Just like how Log Horizon is written by Daisuke Umezu that has likely spent a decent amount of time playing mmo's to create an anime with such strong mmo vibes.
What I really love about No game no life is how interesting it was and would always leave you at the edge of your seat once an episode ends. What I don’t love is Sora and Shiro’s relationship, it just never sat right with me and it’s what made me drop the show. As much as I would love to continue it and even read the light novels I just can’t bring myself to enjoy the series without those two’s relationships getting in the way of my enjoyment. Maybe other people were able to but I just couldn’t stomach it since Sora is almost 18 and Shiro is practically like 11. It’s a show with really great plot, setting, characters, and aspects but it’s completely ruined by the whole age gap between those two
NGNL Zero is definitely a masterpiece. I really wish we could get more anime with that level of quality animation, sound design, orchestration, emotional narrative, etc. It is still to this day my #1 favorite anime, favorite movie, favorite media ever. Nothing has come even close.
Dude your Comedy is gold. You are a legend. I remember the No game No life hype and i honestly didn't watch it at the time because i thought the coloring was off. NOW!! how you explained it, ima give it a try. ty.
No game no life is still by far one of my favorites. I used to be an outright self diagnosed lolicon when this dropped, I was 16, pirating a show a week on my school laptop at a tech school. I'm 24 now. I have almost all the light novels for no game no life and haven't read them. I'm in a state where I have outright moved on from anime. Manga is pretty much the only way I get that anime fix nowadays. It's legitimately kinda crazy looking back on this show. Realizing I really was living right in the golden age of the medium. Also realizing just how much I've changed since this show came out. Around that time my primary method of finding shows had shifted to "oh a cute waifu, let me watch this whole show for the 3 times this character shows up". And due to how shallow my reasoning used to be, I legit can't watch a lot of the shows I used to like just because I don't watch stuff for the same reason anymore. Instead of something as shallow as "oook oook small boobies oook oook", it's now "oh this character is rotten and hollow inside and having to actually do something and fix their life". Since this shift, megalobox 2 has been the first thing I've seen in a long time that really hit on that personal shit. And what a goddamn gut punch. Like the whole thing is pretty much just the thesis "life is what you make of it, the deciding factor is if you give up or not". It's that message of no matter how dark it gets there is still a warm home waiting for you. I dunno man maybe I'm just getting old but that shit really hits home.
Yea I still need to read the NGNL novels too. I read up to volume 6 which I'm halfway through. 6 is the movie so its pretty boring knowing what's going to happen along with it starting out slow. Volume 4 and 5 were pretty good and new content. Hopefully I will get around to finishing it soon
I watched this just last year, and it didn’t quite hit for me. What I liked most were the stakes. 「 」 could bet the clothes off their back for some money and turn that into owning their own kingdom. That was what kept me interested. The games themselves were imaginative, but honestly quite contrived. They were always made with loopholes that only became apparent when convenient to turn the tide of the battle in Sora’s favor. I’m not a fan of this style of storytelling-it feels like a Sherlock Holmes novel where they withhold key information until the reveal to keep the reader from easily guessing what’s going to happen. While I wouldn’t call this show a masterpiece either, I like Kakegurui’s gambling style a lot better. Usually the games are rigged by the opponents, and Yumeko strips down the way that the opponent is cheating to gain an advantage of her own. Even though she has gambling hax like Sora, her victories feel a bit more reasonable, and the audience can sort of play along. Plus Yumeko’s goal is not to win-just to keep gambling, so the story doesn’t have to keep bending in ways to make her win.
I think that's intentional. He basically outright states it to the viewers in the last episode. He looks at the camera (cat girl) and goes something like, "Didn't it feel good? Knowing no matter what you did, you never even had a chance to win?" They were always going to win in some contrived way. No matter what you thought they could do, it would always be something out of left field, dumb, fun, and stupidly entertaining.
@@DevI-vl7gp Even if it’s intentional that Sora wins no matter what, it doesn’t make me like the contrivance any more. The stakes are still diminished knowing that Sora will win no matter what. On the flip side, I really like One Punch Man despite having the same premise that the protagonist can never lose. I think there are two key differences between OPM and NGNL that explain why I like OPM more. 1) No opponent is ever presented as a formidable threat to Saitama. He always beats them quickly without any doubt. That makes the results funny because of how pitifully weak the opponents are compared to Saitama. Sora’s enemies (except for Stephanie) are always presented as formidable threats. He is always in a (seemingly) losing position before he comes out on top. It makes the comeback scenes less and less impactful with each game. Plus, since Sora and the opponent are presented as close matches, I don’t find the results as funny-the exception being when Sora demolishes Stephanie at every game in the 5th? episode. 2) Other than fights in OPM and games in NGNL, I find OPM’s characters and downtime situations funnier. Subjectively, I find Saitama struggling to swat a mosquito way funnier than Sora ogling the females characters. In short, I think there’s either a problem Sora never really having a chance to lose or that the show presents the games in too serious a manner. Of course, a lot of my argument is based on how I subjectively feel about these kinds of narratives, so somebody else could not care as much about these elements of the show and find it way funnier than I do.
i actually teared up a little from sheer horror when you showed the "gamer thats good at games get isekai" bit and the fullmetal song played as i watched hundreds of isekai scroll on the screen. Its honesty crazy how many isekais have come out, we're coming close to like, 10 years of isekai and thats insane. plz we need a new trend,
Unrelated but I’m hella exited for berserk’s return; finally some god tier manga will be published aside from the all the mid shounen being released barring one piece of course
I would love to see the Scamboli, "Top 50 anime you should watch right now" with a small blurb about your pitch on why they're on your top 50. I love your reviews
I just finished watching it, was late to the hype...I hate the anime but I really really love how smart the main characters are and the strategy they use is god level and masterpiece strategizing. And for that reason I was able to appreciate the anime despite having a very bland story, plot and fairly cliche game isekai type theme. Because complex strategy is actually very difficult to write since the actual writer themselves has to be smart in order to actually write it, therefor in some way it's actually real not just an anime the actual writer of No Game No Life had to think of these strategies in real life. Only a few anime have amazed me like such as Monster, Death Note, Jojo's bizarre Adventure, Lupin III, etc...
I remember checking this show out a few years ago. I was absolutely floored by the level of attention they paid to every game segment-listening to Shiro as he broke down even a game as mundane as Rock Paper Scissors into a gripping battle of wits and probably was something I'd never seen before, and haven't since. Then I realized that the only way I'd get to experience those moments of brilliance was if I suffered through all the incest, pedophilia, and non-consensual sexual conduct. Bloody thing still haunts me to this day, though.
I have a hard time sitting through YT videos, you are the only person I watch start to finish hell i even watch your ads. What im saying is i really enjoy your videos.
This anime is what truly sold me on anime in general, holy shit, its probably my favourite, it doesnt deserve to be that high, and im a sucker for quality, but its one my favourite animes and im still waiting for a fucking sequence holy shit please give us a season 2 its been 8 years
I have to say that it is difficult sell to a female friend I watch anime with. "It's an isekai with ecchi elements and 11 y.o sister. And everyone is lewded". Also Jibril FTW.
NGNL was actually a fantastically built world and story, absolutely ruined by fanservice. The over-the-top lewdness is absolutely a distraction and probably killed the 2nd season. Which is the real shame.
Great video! I watched NGNL this year for the first time as well. Absolutely adored it, definitely needed something like it, especially for a year like this

@@TheUlquiorraCifer i really don't get how anyone can expect anything fantastical to come from reality, where do you get that hope? i wish more than anything for magic to be real and i would love to be proven wrong one day but here's why i can't believe magic exists.
Nothing in this world exists without affecting something else. If magic existed then it would need magical energy to power it and this energy would undoubtedly have effects on the local plants or wildlife but even with the whole planet mapped and constant satellite footage and planes flying everywhere such a place has never been reported.
If the energy comes from humans then there should be some side effects differentiating a magical animal like humans from other animals but there's nothing. Humans are not the fastest, the strongest, most durable, longest lived, humans like to think they're the smartest because of their ego but the truth is humans just got lucky with the right combination of intelligence, thumbs, cooperative ability and decent life/healthspan.
@@knightacedia You really do take what you have for granted huh? Reality is the most realistic game with the best physics engine, best dialog system, best interactivity, etc, etc ever created. Do you ever wonder why npc's in videogames or side characters in anime rarely care about magic, or monsters or any of those things? It's because they've gotten used to it. They've taken it for granted. And so have you my good sir, the amount of insane things we take for granted is ridiculous, for example: electricity, magnetism, gravity, physics itself, things humans have made like computers, technology, houses, the stock market, the economy in general. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but these things would've blown minds if shown to people a 1000, or even just 100 years ago. They would've believed it was real magic! These days we dont have wizards and sorcerers, but we do have engineers and programmers, if you want to learn modern magic, pick up a c# book and get to it! Life is an incredibly unique experience (in fact, you could say its once in a lifetime!) but instead of feeling sorry for ourselves we really should make the most of it.
I also think NGNL was at least partially responsible for the color palette most isekai use nowadays. That iconic pastel saturated style was so visually striking to me way back when, and I've seen it more and more after it's success
I hated the color palette the first time I watched the show. I thought my eyes were strained or something, because everything looked so off. It grew on me on future viewings though.
@@rimurutempest4945 NGNL, no matter how much I love it, hurts my eyes
@@rimurutempest4945 Glad to know that I'm not the only one who thinks the color palette is so visually grating. (Aside from the pedo/incest implications) It's the reason I never watched past the first episode. For those reasons I've always been baffled with how popular it is but after watching this vid I think I might be ready to give it another shot.
@@melonah8499 you should, i didn't like the coloring at first either but it grows on you.
@@rimurutempest4945 dropped it just from the colors and never came back
This show still did 2 things no other one did for me.
1. I binged the whole thing every time I watched it, no joke, I didn't even take breaks, from start of Ep1 to end of last episode every time. I didn't binge any other show, but I did multiple times for this one.
2. It made me laugh the whole time, and when I say the whole time, I mean after the first joke, I never stopped for more than 30s. This anime has totally my humor and I adored that.
I was so obsessed with ngnl when it was coming out, and I don’t really like isekai/shounen much. The siblings’ gambles and wins are just so dang satisfying😭 Not to mention how colorful and beautiful the animation style is. The only thing that pissed me off was all the gross fan service. As a girl it distracted from what I tried to enjoy ghfhdh
Same, Don't like all the fan service either but eh it just became something we laughed at
Yeah it can be a kind of a hard thing to desensitize yourself to. American television has a lot of problematic tropes, and Japanese television has different ones. Just sucks it had to infest such a beautiful show
Yeah I was halfway through NGNL and I hated the fanservice. Poor Shiro had a lot of fanservice..
I mean, you can't have one thing without the other, at least from the author since they write what they like.
Fan service was amazing 😊
I really appreciate the "Ya it has plot wholes and isn't perfect, but shut up. It's fun to watch." A show doesn't have to be perfect to be enjoyable and I like to hear it when people say that.
I’m happy to see a lot more people realizing this. When I finally realized this, I have had a much more enjoyable time with anime. With anything for that matter
With that said... what potholes? Am I braindead? Because to me the plot seems seriously tight, with the exception of minor plot convenience during some games
i agree there are plot holes... but man... the light novel... oh my friggin god... coz u can actually not see the SHIRO being secualized part... damn the plot... the fking plot is so good... trust me there is so much to show.. the cold war... how humans survived ... how the movie is connected to the series.... so MUCH... thats the sole reason id say NGNL is one of the best anime ive seen... atleast for me

"I would have just lost"
why do I think this is the funniest line in the video? why did it make me laugh for over 20 seconds?
Watched NGNL years ago. Fell so damn in love with the color palette, something I’ve never seen before in my life up to that point, and kept watching all the way to the end because I love the idea of being so unbelievably dedicated that you’ll go the furthest extra mile to be unparalleled at what you enjoy.
This video came up while I’m showing one of my closest friends this anime, which is still my #1, for the first time. Banger explanation of what makes NGNL so unique.
Can’t wait until we get a season 2! I’ve waited 6 years, surely it’ll come soon!
I think scamboli is the only anime review channel I’ve seen that isn’t just a neck beard. He calls it as he sees it and doesn’t just try to make up bullshit to justify the weird shit, like saying kill la kill is a feminist satire of over sexualized anime. He appreciates the shows for the art and story, not because a character has big boba which generates dopamine.

Same. It’s so crappy that it got trashed because the writer evaded a couple years of his taxes but Rurouni Kenshin gets a reboot when that creator is a IRL pedo (no, not an anime pedo, like real images of CSA pedo)
I don't know if it will happen, but I really hope the anime is able to cover the dwarven arc one day. On the surface, the arc is hilarious, action-packed, and nonsensical. but when reading between the lines, the moral of the arc is wholesome and inspirational. Love it.
You’re one of the few people left that actually speaks their mind without a filter please don’t get canceled king👑

Cheers for that bro.
(Also still waiting on a video for ‘Helck’ promised 9 months ago in the manga recommendation vid)
I remembered NGNL as a good time
Now that you made me rewatch it, I honestly think you're underselling it
Seriously, it's so ridiculously good, and the movie further builds the lore up in a way you wouldn't except for a game anime. The author clearly has a serious vision and deep world he came up with and adheres to the lore while telling the story of special people who at first appear to be character archetypes, just to be more real and fleshed out than honestly 90% of other anime characters. The "game" part is equally on par if you ask me, if a little plot convenient at time. Easy 9/10, arguably 10/10
I'm not one to argue over scores because it's your opinion at the end of the day, but I feel like it should lose points for the pedo stuff. I watched this as a kid and didn't notice it but looking at scenes right now, it's kinda nasty to look at the constant panty flashes.
Every little while there is an itch, I never get the vids recommended sadly but whenever I go to scratch a new vid is there. incredible perspective as always scam always ready to start scratching
I watched No Game No Life back in the day. My teenage self thought, "Dang, that was gay as hell. I can't wait for Season 2." By today's standards, yeah the show is lacking, but back then it was unique and a fun watch. I think if we actually got more seasons with even more little girls, it might have aged more favourably.

1:32 that build up to that email translation had me dying! 😂
I like to believe that it isn’t just an isekai, Sora and Shiro really were born in the wrong world, and they were isekaied to Earth, but then Tet brought them back to Disboard when he found them. NGNL Zero is why I believe in this.
100% same. The author supposedly claims that Sora and Shiro canonically aren't Riku and Schwi reincarnated, but... I'm going to say this is one of the rare times where the author doesn't get to decide his canon.
@@Grimsikk Kinda bullshit since he deliberately made Riku and Schwi look like Sora and Shiro

I think your video struck a part of my brain I haven’t thought to use in awhile. The whole concept of isekai has grown so dull to me. I would love to see an isekai that takes place in more of a Star Wars or Smash bros type of world where the formula is shaken up. I haven’t enjoyed isekai in years but your video man has got my gears spinning :) Great work as always, can’t wait for the next video :)

Scamboli Joker Moment 3:59
I love this channel. You talk about fire shows, with a very specific type of humor that is almost extinct nowadays, and aren’t afraid to speak your mind and say what you think. I’ve been subbed for years now but I’ll occasionally just go back through and watch some of the older videos because they all make me laugh. Keep doing what you do.
Sweet jesus, you took the editing to another level with this vid! Incredible as always man, it’s a blessing to have a good vid like this when I’m having a bad day
this video came at a perfect time, I wasn't feeling the best today and just hearing your very calming voice talk about anime really cheered me up lol, thank you.
5:45 "If you can just sit back and have fun, It's really good at that". Reminds me of eminince in the shadow where a lot of the hate it was being given was technical and complicated when if you just sat back and enjoyed the crazy plot twists and the overwhelming power fanticy we all dream about having, you would enjoy it so much. When anime gets too technical with its stories it looses its fun.
I think this sort of thing is the strength of the Dr. Strange MCU movies. He wins both times by outsmarting a bad guy, solving his problems by something other than just "punch them harder than they punch you".
"Around this time, a lot of good anime came out" *Starts with Noragami* You, sir, are a man of culture.
2:04 Exactly
I remember really liked watching this anime when I was younger and when I came back to watch it again I felt gross about the whole shiro thing and started skipping the jokes and “stuff” still give a 8/10 because the games are fun to watch :)
...you do know saying "it's 8/10 when i skip through the gross stuff" is not a great endorsement right?
@@angrybrony well yes but that’s why they’re saying it’s an 8/10 WITHOUT that stuff, presumably they rate it much lower if they couldn’t skip through that stuff.
i like how you are getting better at blender :) cant wait to see how you gonna use 3d animations in the next video
This gave me a nice new perspective on the show! I watched the first season a couple years back and the little girl sexualizing made me not want to watch it anymore. I never thought about how its different world setting and coloring is probably what gave it more life than other isekai. Great video as always Scamboli
Idk if u read it but I would recommend u Worthless Regression and Overpowered Sword. I mean they are somewhat pretty generic but not too known and I enjoyed. Watching the characters progress and improve has something weirldy satisfying about it.

Okay come on Log Horizon's first season is easily of the best isekai's anime out there.

@@Dasha-Soul Somehow Log Horizon reminds me of Razer's quote made by gamers for gamers hahaha
@@theplaylistpsycho sry, what quote?
@@Dasha-Soul "Made by gamers for gamers" is a quote by Razer, a company well known for its gaming related peripherals. Just like how Log Horizon is written by Daisuke Umezu that has likely spent a decent amount of time playing mmo's to create an anime with such strong mmo vibes.
What I really love about No game no life is how interesting it was and would always leave you at the edge of your seat once an episode ends. What I don’t love is Sora and Shiro’s relationship, it just never sat right with me and it’s what made me drop the show. As much as I would love to continue it and even read the light novels I just can’t bring myself to enjoy the series without those two’s relationships getting in the way of my enjoyment. Maybe other people were able to but I just couldn’t stomach it since Sora is almost 18 and Shiro is practically like 11. It’s a show with really great plot, setting, characters, and aspects but it’s completely ruined by the whole age gap between those two
Yeah. This show BADLY needs a season 2. Especially when NGNL zero exists in a serious tone and shows the author can write a masterpiece
NGNL Zero is definitely a masterpiece. I really wish we could get more anime with that level of quality animation, sound design, orchestration, emotional narrative, etc. It is still to this day my #1 favorite anime, favorite movie, favorite media ever. Nothing has come even close.
Dude your Comedy is gold. You are a legend. I remember the No game No life hype and i honestly didn't watch it at the time because i thought the coloring was off. NOW!! how you explained it, ima give it a try. ty.
When you upload I put down everything I’m doing and go straight into enjoying the video.
No game no life is still by far one of my favorites. I used to be an outright self diagnosed lolicon when this dropped, I was 16, pirating a show a week on my school laptop at a tech school.
I'm 24 now. I have almost all the light novels for no game no life and haven't read them. I'm in a state where I have outright moved on from anime. Manga is pretty much the only way I get that anime fix nowadays.
It's legitimately kinda crazy looking back on this show. Realizing I really was living right in the golden age of the medium. Also realizing just how much I've changed since this show came out.
Around that time my primary method of finding shows had shifted to "oh a cute waifu, let me watch this whole show for the 3 times this character shows up". And due to how shallow my reasoning used to be, I legit can't watch a lot of the shows I used to like just because I don't watch stuff for the same reason anymore. Instead of something as shallow as "oook oook small boobies oook oook", it's now "oh this character is rotten and hollow inside and having to actually do something and fix their life".
Since this shift, megalobox 2 has been the first thing I've seen in a long time that really hit on that personal shit. And what a goddamn gut punch. Like the whole thing is pretty much just the thesis "life is what you make of it, the deciding factor is if you give up or not". It's that message of no matter how dark it gets there is still a warm home waiting for you.
I dunno man maybe I'm just getting old but that shit really hits home.
Yea I still need to read the NGNL novels too. I read up to volume 6 which I'm halfway through. 6 is the movie so its pretty boring knowing what's going to happen along with it starting out slow. Volume 4 and 5 were pretty good and new content. Hopefully I will get around to finishing it soon
3:05 *Perfect*
I watched this just last year, and it didn’t quite hit for me. What I liked most were the stakes. 「 」 could bet the clothes off their back for some money and turn that into owning their own kingdom. That was what kept me interested. The games themselves were imaginative, but honestly quite contrived. They were always made with loopholes that only became apparent when convenient to turn the tide of the battle in Sora’s favor. I’m not a fan of this style of storytelling-it feels like a Sherlock Holmes novel where they withhold key information until the reveal to keep the reader from easily guessing what’s going to happen.
While I wouldn’t call this show a masterpiece either, I like Kakegurui’s gambling style a lot better. Usually the games are rigged by the opponents, and Yumeko strips down the way that the opponent is cheating to gain an advantage of her own. Even though she has gambling hax like Sora, her victories feel a bit more reasonable, and the audience can sort of play along. Plus Yumeko’s goal is not to win-just to keep gambling, so the story doesn’t have to keep bending in ways to make her win.
I think that's intentional. He basically outright states it to the viewers in the last episode. He looks at the camera (cat girl) and goes something like, "Didn't it feel good? Knowing no matter what you did, you never even had a chance to win?" They were always going to win in some contrived way. No matter what you thought they could do, it would always be something out of left field, dumb, fun, and stupidly entertaining.
@@DevI-vl7gp Even if it’s intentional that Sora wins no matter what, it doesn’t make me like the contrivance any more. The stakes are still diminished knowing that Sora will win no matter what.
On the flip side, I really like One Punch Man despite having the same premise that the protagonist can never lose. I think there are two key differences between OPM and NGNL that explain why I like OPM more.
1) No opponent is ever presented as a formidable threat to Saitama. He always beats them quickly without any doubt. That makes the results funny because of how pitifully weak the opponents are compared to Saitama. Sora’s enemies (except for Stephanie) are always presented as formidable threats. He is always in a (seemingly) losing position before he comes out on top. It makes the comeback scenes less and less impactful with each game. Plus, since Sora and the opponent are presented as close matches, I don’t find the results as funny-the exception being when Sora demolishes Stephanie at every game in the 5th? episode.
2) Other than fights in OPM and games in NGNL, I find OPM’s characters and downtime situations funnier. Subjectively, I find Saitama struggling to swat a mosquito way funnier than Sora ogling the females characters.
In short, I think there’s either a problem Sora never really having a chance to lose or that the show presents the games in too serious a manner. Of course, a lot of my argument is based on how I subjectively feel about these kinds of narratives, so somebody else could not care as much about these elements of the show and find it way funnier than I do.
Fuck... I begrudgingly agree
I like how you present good information in an entertaining and digestible format, you got my sub for sure
I love how you add in some kind of message into your videos

you're one of my favorite RUclipsrs across there entire platform. incredible humor my guy
I just finished watching it, was late to the hype...I hate the anime but I really really love how smart the main characters are and the strategy they use is god level and masterpiece strategizing. And for that reason I was able to appreciate the anime despite having a very bland story, plot and fairly cliche game isekai type theme. Because complex strategy is actually very difficult to write since the actual writer themselves has to be smart in order to actually write it, therefor in some way it's actually real not just an anime the actual writer of No Game No Life had to think of these strategies in real life. Only a few anime have amazed me like such as Monster, Death Note, Jojo's bizarre Adventure, Lupin III, etc...
i saw some dubious manga in that list in 6:07 hehehe
I remember checking this show out a few years ago. I was absolutely floored by the level of attention they paid to every game segment-listening to Shiro as he broke down even a game as mundane as Rock Paper Scissors into a gripping battle of wits and probably was something I'd never seen before, and haven't since. Then I realized that the only way I'd get to experience those moments of brilliance was if I suffered through all the incest, pedophilia, and non-consensual sexual conduct. Bloody thing still haunts me to this day, though.
I have a hard time sitting through YT videos, you are the only person I watch start to finish hell i even watch your ads. What im saying is i really enjoy your videos.
This anime is what truly sold me on anime in general, holy shit, its probably my favourite, it doesnt deserve to be that high, and im a sucker for quality, but its one my favourite animes and im still waiting for a fucking sequence holy shit please give us a season 2 its been 8 years

NGNL was actually a fantastically built world and story, absolutely ruined by fanservice. The over-the-top lewdness is absolutely a distraction and probably killed the 2nd season. Which is the real shame.
Great video!
I watched NGNL this year for the first time as well. Absolutely adored it, definitely needed something like it, especially for a year like this
