It does a pretty good job being a faithful adaptation of the story Hamel-Lanox. There isn't much they did differently compared to the game's story dialog.
The voice acting is fine too, if you're used to hearing the game voices, then you'll probably be fine with the voices here too. The only complaint is the over-acting of some bits, but it's not the worse.
The art isn't bad at first but, overtime the characters have weird distortion to their faces. It can be pretty distracting at times but it's also funny to watch.
The biggest complaint with the show are the characters, in the game they all usually have equal amount of attention in the story, but here characters like Rena and Raven are hardly focused on. The presentation of the character's base personality comes off as typical cliché…

For anyone who watches and wondering why I give a good score is because I already play and read all the story of the game. And if you want to understand more about the anime then I suggest you to play the game first and read the story of the game rather than watching this anime because the start of this anime is actually the mid story of the game.
I'm sure some of you who haven't play the game might be wondering on the first episode if it really start out like that or not (and the answer is no, there's more MORE story before that). They also skipped how they saved the wind priest lol.

Yeah give an anime adaptation of an MMO and start it past the mid point of the game's plot...BRILLIANT!!!!!!
Ok, so sarcasm aside, Elsword is an anime LA didn't even expected to get an anime and LA being a rather early fan of Elsword and played the game for hundreds of hours but had fallen off it (Computer issues) much later, LA still liked this grindfest of an MMO.
So how does the anime stand to the MMO?...well...
The most bizarre thing about this anime is that it starts the anime at the mid-point (start of Hamel to be precise) with the all of the El Party members having already grown to their 2nd Job Classes, so this is telling that this is for the fans however it utterly isolates the newbies wanting to get into this MMO through the anime in the first place, it's just a weird choice e…
