 explain .hack (spoilers)

[Caddberry (#27690)]

When you have a question about a series you should post the thread in the appropriate folder.. I moved it there for you. If you are going to be discussing a series in detail you should also put a SPOILER warning in the title. That Stick can do for you since i moved it before i added the warning.. & Welcome to the forum.. ^_^

It would also help to know when you started watching the series. Like from what ep did you pick it up?

ok first of all skeith is a sort of like what helba is hacker only is a mindless form of the morganna beacuse morganna dosnet realy have a true form. and sora because he was once an apprecntice hacker(thus why he knows helba) and he betryed morgannan and she dosnet take betayl lightly.

I just finished watching the whole thing from start to finish and was left thinking wtf. I really HATE it when anime's don't explain the bloody ending, they're about to fight skeith then all of a sudden tsukasa is in the real world and is meeting subaru (btw really annoying slow mo running scene)

What the!?

Why does every anime build this great story then finish it off with a half-ass ending!

[Stick (#5576)]

i added a spoiler warning to the thread title

umm...im kinda dumb at time's , and i dont get one part in the show with Krim and BT, what was going on between them?

pleas tell me

[Maru Botan (#40395)]

Late post, but what the heck.

Half ass ending? you gotta be more perceptive when watching animes with this caliber.

Just a few moments after they met Skeith, they were all (including Tsukasa) forced logged out by Helba. The whole point of the story is about helping Tsukasa keep his sense of reality and finding a way to log her out. That done, I dont think you really need to know the obvious details when Tsukasa finally woke up in the hospital.

[gosaimasu (#50743)]

This WAS a half-ass ending. dont try to make this anime better by saying "you gotta be more perceptive when watching animes with this caliber."
Are you implying that the ending of this anime was good? This ending leaves people hanging, and is unresolved. Questions such as, "Did Tsukasa go live with Bear? Did he meet Mimiru? Is "The World" still ok? WTF happened to Sora after the AI punished him? Why are none of the main characters in the ending?" are unresolved. All of the real-life questions are unanswered. To me it sounds as if you are trying to make yourself sound smart by implying that you understood and accepted the ending, while the rest of us didnt. There is no "caliber" for this ending. It sucked, it could have been a better ending, and thats all there is to it.

[Caddberry (#27690)]

[ahp (#43308)]

Well, .hack//SIGN's ending did not answer all of the questions which were raised throughout the series.. Yet it still made a very good impression on me.

Well, one of the reasons which causes a lot of misunderstanding that there's more behind the anime as it is based on a game (a series iirc). Playing the games might answer quite a lot.

As there already is a spoiler warning..

Are you sure that Sora is turned into Skeith? As I can see it, Morgana tortures (or even kills) Sora, damaging him in also real life.

Ugh.. Isn't the real key the Bracelet of Twilight?

[Last Exile (#35342)]

I think Innotechs' explanation is good, but I found it easy to udnerstand on most levels. The first episode gives away 90% of the plot anyway, if you spot the subtle clues. The things that don't make sense end up being explained in hack//liminality. If you want to understand hack better, watch liminality. It makes a lot mroe sense than the series and is cruical to udnerstand the overall storyline and plot.

What made it hard for me to watch was Tsukasa. A protagnoist/hero is meant to have at elast a few redeeming features. Until the 24th episode, Tsukasa simply whines and acts selfish and arrogant. If it wasn't for Mimiru and Subaru I seriously wouldn't have watched it through.

[LaVoS!5 (#44242)]

The question is... Can oneselft watch the Liminarity OVAs , Without having played the games , and still get a better understanding of the ://HACK word? I´m too lazy to get a copy of the games (all of them arent even available in my country , just the first 2), but I dont want to be left like this either, and start to watch Dusk without having understood SIGN a little bit better, because, yes, I DO believe the ending was a complete mess as well. Im so tired of good animes with filthy endings...

[Last Exile (#35342)]

Hopefully the manga is better. That's usually the case for animes with crappy endings.

[Thomas(akaTammo) (#57694)]

Tsukasa

[Last Exile (#35342)]

Strange you mention Shinji. Tsukasa reminded me of Shinji a lot.

That why I can't stand Tsukasa.

[Thomas(akaTammo) (#57694)]

Mentioning Shinji ...

I thought it was mostly pretty good, the music was great in places, the animation was nice and mostly the characters were pretty good.

The main character however was incredibly dull, I've never cared so little about a lead character in all my life, he had absolutely /no/ personality, which is always going to really sway my opinion of something, a decent main character can make a huge difference, unforuntately this one sucked.

And don't even get me started on the bloody ending, what on earth was all that about? It must of been the lamest and cheesiest ending I've /ever/ seen!

Regarding, the OST, everyone seems to love it, and yes, for the first few episodes I genuinely believed it to be the best music I've ever seen in an anime, but it didn't take too long to realise that most of the songs being played were just recycled versions of a song in a previous episode, there only seems to be a few different tunes throughout the entire anime, just played in a slightly different way.

But on the whole I still enjoyed this a lot, and there were a lot of cool characters in this series, it's just a huge shame that the main one was such a letdown, really spoilt it for me.

[animeghost (#110106)]

well i can see no one here can even notice that right after that the first game started and thus showing that that was not the real ending contuning it on duh how brainless can you get to not notice that.
i also have a friend who works with project .hack so i can most likeley figure things out if you want to know something but still think about the rest of the series as well when you are going to state that something is bad or not and understand it for what it is.
