Thoughts:

This was an anime I found by chance since two animes that I have been watching ended. I was just browsing and found the synopsis interesting so I just watched. And I can't believe my luck when I saw that this was a great anime. So far so Good. A gamer who wants to enjoy the game till it's last moments to find that his whole existence was transported into the game into the avatar he was playing. And the journey to blend his original human personality with that of his avatar personality which is kinda fun. His reactions when dealing with his subordinates technically his underlings is funny as in his original world, he was a nobody, just living a simple life and now he is a somebody and a big superior personality and yet he is able to execute that personality well. And now that I'm watching this, I believe he was not a simple nobody. 

Anyways, people have commented that this is the favourite for best anime of the summer and I have to agree by saying this is a SUPER MUST-WATCH and ratings would be 11/10. It is a super great anime to watch even if the anime cut down some parts from the light novel, it still showed the fun of it. It is super thrilling that I ended up reading the light novel due to unable to wait. Watch and be amazed!! Also, get ready for some reading because you will find yourself wanting to read the light novel when this anime ends. XDXDXD

Thoughts:

I was really really glad I found this anime. I mean this was seriously the one of the serious best anime I've ever watched. The plot. the story, the action, the fantasy, the characters, technically everything is super good. I really enjoyed watching this. This anime was super fun. Giving a deeper meaning to the words, "No Game No Life" It revolves around it and even deeper into it. With games, there's life and game is played when there's life. I can't seriously describe in words how great and amazing this anime is. I am itching for the second season of this anime. It was too good.

All in all, this is a super TOTAL MUST-WATCH and my ratings for it is 12/10. It was too good. Overtop-notch. Seriously watch and you will get hooked.

Thoughts:
It took some time for me to actually watch this because my first impression of it was not good. Then, after having no anime on my watchlist, this anime came to view and I thought "Why not?" I came with the least expectation and the desire to just bear with it. But I was in for a surprise as this was actually kind of a great anime. I wish it was longer. The story was unique and I personally liked it. Fantasy is so my favourite. As a boy, this was an amazing anime as it was full of great action. You just can't get bored at how powerful the main character gets each time he fights.
Anyways, this is a pleasant must watch. I won't persuade one to watch it but my rating of it is 10/10. Plotting and story quite top-notch. You are free to try.
