As a viewer who has never actually seen most of the .hack// series I decided to view .hack//Quantum as a way to get me interested in the rest of the series. In short, I would say that yes I am interested in the rest of the series. And I would definitely recommend to a friend who was interested in seeing new anime or in watching the rest of the series itself like me. However, as many other reviews for this anime have stated .hack//Quantum does not seem to stand up to the rest of the series as a whole and I might recommend for a viewerto simply pass it unless they are a long time fan of the series.
