I don't think they're gonna cut out time travel. After all, in-game, Ulc and Zeno are saved by MC, who traveled through time thanks to Xiao. He tricked Luther, making him believe that his plans were successful.Quote:

Holy crap, I did not expect that they would show Ulc's body onscreen in such manner. I'm starting to think the anime director is taking notes from Urobochi :lol:
Well good point.Quote:

Um, just asking for correction / information .... the kid with blue hair
It's Stratos, right? _(:3」

And I really liked that cameo but too bad she won't appear in the anime cause it only covers ep 1-3. Sadly means no Xiera either but I hope this anime will be popular enough for more animes covering the other episodes to get made as well.
Also, glad Ash got stronger already and we see Liza and Klarisklays (whatever the spelling is) in action cause it just felt so weird seeing Arks get massacred by Dagans left and right, really time for Arks to actually kill some stuff.
Everyone is using 1* weapons, I hope they upgrade them later cause many 1* weapons like rifles, tmgs and wands look quite boring.
God This anime looks more fun than the actual Story mode of the game. Scenes are cut together more nicely and we actually see people dying instead of EP1's "Themis is getting attacked, go beat up Dark Range and once you're done a small text box appears saying Ulc has perished then in a different matter board node you can check up on Zieg who's just fine but damn the staff is gone". Also showing Luther early on and keeping time travel a secret is a much better way of going about it than whatever EP1~3 were trying with their "repeat this story quest again but this time go left". Zeno, Ulc and "the Incident 10 years ago" are the only times where PSO2 did Time travel well in the game so they wont cut it out of the anime.
This story doesn't function without Time Travel. Matoi and Persona aren't from this timeline and Zeno already told ash he looks familiar to him. Ofc he does, they met 10 years ago. Showing Theo discovering Ulc's body is just to speed up his plotline. and this doesn't even have to be her body, it can be some other Arks who died protecting her before Ash showed up or a even more fucked up thing would be to have Ash drag a body of a different dead Arks next to the vehicle and litting it on fire himself to not fuck up the timeline.Quote:

I don't think they cared about that kind of paradoxes in game, Afin remembering every one of the three ends for the first quest as an example, so Theo not seeing Ulc's body but believing she is dead is the same, specially if that memory pops in his head when he has already changed, the reason they kept Ulc and Zeno hidden was to not diverge too much from the original timeline so they had the advantage knowing what was to come.Quote:
