oh hey .hack//roots is on crunchyroll
i have no idea if that show is any good. like, there's some understated background bits to the games that are neat, but .hack// never really won any points for its story or writing so much as they did from some other variable, like the presentation of the games or the ambience of SIGN. from what i can tell, roots basically just exists to explain the origin story of g.u. which sounds... pretty friggin' lame lol
so yeah, calling all saltys 'cause I'm sure he actually watched that one

watched it when it was like...originally airing, yup
and yeah, it's basically there to be G.U.'s slice of life backstory with the weird artstyle but excellent OP and ED and music in general (I honestly think that ED and soundtrack in general may have been the first time I really noticed Ali Project)
I think it's worth watching just for how weirdly tense and dramatic some of this **** can get despite the fact that they're all in an MMO and nobody's even trapped in there with a coma-producing dumbbell yet. Also the fact that the antagonists of the anime straight up are party members in G.U. using alts (including one bald aura-worshipping furry) and the fact that the old dude/bear surrogate shows up in a cameo in the third volume of G.U. but makes no sense if you haven't seen the anime
but mostly the music. The music's great.

you're talking to a guy who feels like a deviant if he isn't wearing pants, even when he's in bed
