So I just finished this and it's left me more confused than when I picked it up. Everything is slow and the characters just talk and talk about nothing. Sure interesting stuff, but its worse than evangelion at the depth shit. Can someone explain what happened at the end? What is aura about? What did the hacker do? What were the motives of the old ladies voice? None of it makes any sense. The plot had no reason to exist and the big bad had no reason to be bad.
Everyone keeps saying how this is the most accurate mmo based anime. I barely agree with that considering how there's tons of asspulls and unbeatable monsters and 5% of the series is about fighting and mmo related stuff while 95% is NGE level depth.
>bait on the first page
It's a lead up to the games, don't expect resolution or explanation of things that barely got any in the end.
i watched it forever ago
aura is a grill that got stuck in the game somehow
or it is a part of the code
or she is a bug
i dont remember shit, sorry for this
the .hack is barely about anything, sadly
its about mmorpg in a sense of feels delivered, i guess
but its NOT REAL as heck imho
like, what the heck, danmachi is a more realistic online dungeon crawl + rpg simulator then this is a mmorpg simulator
if you are lost in your way
deep in an awesome story
dont be in doubt and stray
cling to your lonesome folly
...
hear the chorus of pain
taking you back to proper ways
its so easy to find
if you could remind me

Welcome to early 2000's anime; where the characters don't move so the vectors can remain sharp.
The big highlight of .hack//SIGN was it was an anime based around playing a MMORPG. This was the pre-WoW days, where MMO's generally required a lot of imagination and player interaction to be interesting. Pretty sure its safe to say this show was inspired by Ultima Online and Everquest. First episode was released Feb 2003. FFXI and Ragnarok Online were what... 2002?
shine, bright morning light
now in the air the spring is coming
sweet blowing wind
singing down the hills and valleys
keep your eyes on me
now we're on the edge of hell
dear my love, sweet morning light
Wait For Me, You've Come Much Further,
Too Far…
you are here
no escape
from my visions of the world
you will cry
all alone
but that doesn't mean a thing to me
the fields are filled with desire
all voices crying for freedom
but all in vain, they will fade away
There's Only You
To Answer You
Forever !
