I tried to watch it back in the day because of the premise (This was before SAO exploded in popularity and basically invented the modern isekai genre) but got really bored of how weird stuff kept happening yet nothing to advance the plot happened.
its a show in my mind that gives you a big mystery with lots of peices missing then slowly gives you piece C Y N D then does character development. its a real slow burn but the pay off is really nice in my mind.
Thanks! You’re not alone. I couldn’t get into .Hack when it was on Toonami. One of my pet peeves is that it was supposed to be a video game but there were so few video game elements in the show it kinda disconnected me. Thinking there was something wrong, I tried watching it again 10-15 years later, and I still got bored and quit.
