No Game, No Life, Vol. 2

ノーゲーム・ノーライフ / No Game No Life (Manga) #2

by Yuu Kamiya

For fans of Sword Art Online, a brother and sister become transported into a fantasy game world and must fight to survive!

Sora and Shiro--brother and sister--are brilliant (but unemployed) gamers whose fame has spawned urban legends all over the Internet. One day, they are summoned by a boy named "God" to an alternate world. There, God has prohibited war and declared this to be a world where "everything is decided by games"--even national borders. Humanity has been driven back into one remaining city by the other races. Will Sora and Shiro, the good-for-nothing brother and sister, become the "Saviors of Humanity" in this alternate world?

Neskutečně miluju art style NGNL. Manga byla fajn, i když daleko víc to vynikne v anime podobě. Ale Soru bych si klidně vzala.

3.5/5*

RETO POP SUGAR 2018
39. Un libro que involucre una librería o biblioteca

después de que Sora y Shiro son los reyes , decide ir a la biblioteca humana donde estara la flugel que se apropio de ella hace mucho tiempo . su nombre es Jibril y hace tiempo que no ha matado a nadie ( por lo de la reglas del juego)
el juego consiste en pronunciar una palabra y el objeto se materializa pero debe ser real. muy real. con unas estrategias fantasticas vence a Jibril y esta se vuelve su esclava de amor. jajaja , esclava pero parece al reves que sora y shiro son los esclavos.

Looking at the concept.. it conveys something beautiful rather,

I really love that character "God" and his concept of visualizing world into a gaming hub where everything is decided by games even borders of a country.

Some gaming scenarios like the realistic way of chess and other such games were great.

And the rest part consists of showing women naked so that readers don't get distracted in between.

Checking out the nerd stores in japan, it seems like light novels like this one have really gotten popular. It used to be that the "otaku" world was centered around Manga and Anime, now we can probably add light novels to the list.

Decided to take a second look at the series. I wouldn't say that it was better than the first book but I have gotten used to the characters.

Would be better if the fanservice was cut down significantly.

Gulity pleasure.

[Shail Shah · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a great read.

The best part of the book was the battle between Jibril and blank, and that probably is my favorite battle in the series so far. The description, the whimsical characters, Sora and Shiro's amazing chemistry was a breeze to read. This book is a fantastic, easy read.

The reason I gave this four stars and not five is because this book only has one major battle. Furthermore, this book ends in a cliffhanger, which I am not too much of a fan (this is merely a personal opinion). Had this book included any other major battle or had it been paced a little better (I found this book slower than the first volume), I would have given it five stars.

Read this book, you will not regret it.

I’m sorry..but the game of “chess” completely lost me. It was fine to follow, but I have no earthly clue where the power of “cuteness” came into play. The whole book was on this battle that made no sense at all.

I’m giving two stars because of the short story in the back that explained how No Game No Life- Zero was produced, because that was a joy to read.

There was also minimal to no fan service, which I greatly appreciated.

Meilleur que le 1er tome (moins de sexualisation et de très très beau dessin)

J'adore cette partie d'échec !

Par contre la fin, c'est encore pire que celle de l'anime !?! Même pas un "à suivre" alors que l'histoire est absolument pas fini... (surtout qu'elle existe en animé et il me semble en langue originel aussi...)

Mais bon ça m'a remémoré pleins de souvenirs de quand j'avais regardé l'anime !

[Aaron Meyer · Rating 4 out of 5]

A little disappointed that this series ended like this, without an ending. Did Seven Seas loose the contract for this? I noticed that Yen Press took over No Game, No Life Please! With a different artist as well and doesn't seem to continue the story but I could be wrong since I haven't got those issues. Other than that I was enjoying the series.

[Santiago Castaño Acevedo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Igualmente como exprese en el anterior volumen, está historia me está fascinando por su forma de expresarse y mostrarnos un pasado doloroso pero que igualmente contribuye al crecimiento de los personajes, y que apesar de todo ambos se tienen para las buenas y malas experiencias.

[Makaila · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book introduces one of my favorite characters. Like I said in my other review, this is one of my favorite light novels out there. I love how extreme the sibling duo will get for a win against supernatural beings that clearly have decades of knowledge.

[Krystal Caloia · Rating 3 out of 5]

I guess that explains the brother-sister thing a bit more, step-siblings.

Still interesting world building though they switched between past and present conversations without much to show the differences and it was a bit confusing.

This series has 2 volumes.

[DonutKnow · Rating 2 out of 5]

Meh, I was expecting it to be in light novel form. Perhaps I got the order wrong?

[Jessyca · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love the more extensive world building and back story. I will say the first one took me a while to get through because of his writing style, but now it's much easier!

[Adam Gutschenritter · Rating 4 out of 5]

Plot book, Blank battles in an inspiration version of chess to determine who will be king of Imanity. Elves and cheating are discovered.

Time 2h50m

[Oscar Alvarado · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sigue con el mismo ritmo de la primera, se incorporan nuevos personajes que dan lapsos interesantes como la admiración por parte de JIbril hacia Sora, es interesante como puede llegar a admirarlo siendo que los Imanity son razas inferiores en todo sentido, los hombres bestia también muy interesantes
