Why is this show so popular Sup Forums? Is it really that good? Should I watch it?

No.

Ye Asuna is my waifu

Sure

Asuna is cute, CUTE!

its the best show ever dont listen to Sup Forums trash moeshit taste..

...

it's not that bad but not great either ! most people will enjoy it for the animation/ost/cute and sexy girls . you should watch it any way it has a great doujins

This. Allowing unironic generals of trash like kememe friends removes the right to criticize other shows.

Watch it, it's fucking hilarious.

I only saw the first half of the first season but I do appreciate that the romance was allowed to grow and develop. I don't really like the genre though.

I dropped it at the end of episode 2 twice.
I've heard it gets even worse after that.

Nice 3 episodes series.

It's fine. Just don't expect a masterpiece. People hate on this because of that.

it's a modern masterpiece Sup Forums is just being tsundere again when they call it shit

Will you fucking chill with the SAO topics? This topic is as dead as I am on the inside.

I suggest literally any other isekai instead.

depends.
If you are an emotional bitch like I am, yes.

If not, dabble into the first 2-3 epiosdes and if it doesnt tickle your fancy bail out

(that christmas episode hit me hard)

>Sup Forums like SAO now

This board has become such a casual normalfags shithole.

Heres a short rundown through the series:
The first season (the actual SAO run) is pretty good but has a breakneck pace to stupidly fit the whole arc in 1 season. Still, the characters are interesting and the plot is pretty good with some great moments. If it was self contained it might have been better than what it was. What immediately follows up (ALO) is absolute trash and exists just to put Kirito through a knockoff Eclipse.

Actual season 2 (Gun Gale) is actually pretty good, has an interesting plot and they mostly pack away the fantasy stuff, which could use a break. Even though Kirito fights with a lightsaber since he's an autist who can't fight any other way. And lastly Mothers Rosario is interesting but a bit stupid and overly dramatic. Oh, and the movie starts with a really cool idea with AR gaming that it then proceeds to shit all over.
It's alright. Not the best thing ever but I've seen worse.

>Why is this show so popular Sup Forums?
autists that self-insert as the "badass" invincible hero who can do no wrong or his stronk intepentent womyn girlfriend
>Is it really that good? Should I watch it?
no

Basically this.

It's fine, has it's good moments.

>its

Dumbass me.

>characters are interesting
>plot is pretty good
>(Gun Gale) is actually pretty good

Holy shit.

That better be pasta, I mean
>first season was pretty good

Aids girl is my spirit animal. Whenever I feel down I will channel the power of AIDS girl and persevere.

>Should I watch it?
If you want really generic, boring shit then yes. It's not as bad as the memes say, but also not really better than a generic battle school harem, which is saying a lot

As soon as you start caring about that one grammar guy it's all over.

I enjoyed it and I recommend it if at least you want to know what all the hype was about. The first arc of S1 and last arc of S2 are the best parts.

However, what I hated most about the series is the villains in the ALO and GGO arcs. Insane rape-faced screaming villains with retarded motives are the laziest, most uninteresting, and cringey types.

Not online, but I'm usually that one grammar guy.
