About this show

Bored with life and considering it in the real world to be just a “crappy game,” savvy siblings Sora and Shiro have withdrawn into their own fantasy world filled with video games. It is because of this that they are summoned to another world by a boy calling himself “God.” It’s here in this world where Sora and Shiro’s abilities are put to the test. They are now in a world where their fate – and the fate of all humanity - is decided by game. Can they beat the hardest game they've ever played?

I watched "No Game No Life" on Netflix and i absolutely loved it. The show is so beautiful graphic wise and it makes me wish there was a season 2. The show makes you think that games are more just entertainment for Sora and Shiro spoiler warning, Games are there way to dominate this world. And i love how there's a god of the game having a whole world know who there god is, was such a good idea. If you haven't seen no game no life you don't know what your missing. Top 3 in my favorite shows ez.

I love this show so much that's it's easily one of my all time favorites. In the first few minutes I was already captivated by what was going on as this has a very unique storyline. All of the character interactions are bizarre but really funny and intelligent. All of the games are some very appeasy eye candy from the vibrate colors and the way the main characters play each game. My favorite episode is the introduction of the fulgel. I would also highly recommend reading the light novels as well

No Game No Life is probably one of the better shows I've watched. it easily slides into a top 10 for me. the character interactions are both unique and bizarre. there are a lot of clever moments. there's more fan-service than I can appreciate, but it doesn't depreciate from the show. Lastly, the show itself is beautiful, its like watching the whole thing through a stained glass window. highly recommend if you need a laugh.
